PW Boards Spotlight #1 Lithium93

beakerjoe

Well its the kickoff edition of the brand spanking new PW Boards Spotlight thread.
For those unaware of this concept, each week a different member of the PW Boards community is highlighted in a thread, and the rest of the community gets to fire wrestling related questions at him. The aim of the spotlight thread is to simply get to know each poster that little bit better and its a great way to grandstand and hotdog about yourself if highlighted.

There are a few rules that should be followed :

1. Questions should be Pro Wrestling related although some leeway is allowed e.g. TV and Film interests (Stuff we all talk about in the Off-Topic Thread)
2. Let's not have questions that are too personal. The poster doesn't have to answer anything they don't want to.
3. Moderator has final decision on what questions are appropriate or deemed too personal or unrelated.
4. No discussion of poster's answers in the thread (follow up questions are ok)
5. Only the poster should be answering the questions.
6. There is a limit of 3 questions per poster though you may follow each of those questions up if needed.

This week in a clear effort to boost ratings and viewership of this thread, I have personally selected one particular member for the debut edition since he recently won the PW boards CM Punk award for best poster. Everyone knows him, by the looks of it everyone loves him, its Lithium93_

So we have one week of questions with The Lithmiester, fire away folks.

Ill get the ball rolling shall I with my 3 questions

1. Whos your fav wrestler?

2. What was the first wrestling match you remember watching ?

3. How did you come across PW Boards?

Omackeral

1. Congrats on your Best in the World Award. What does it mean to you, if anything, to be called the very best by the rest of us lads here?

2. How mad are you that beakerjoe forgot the underscore in your username?

3. What do you do for a living/study and do your colleagues know you're a Pro Wrestling guy?

3. How did you come acvross PW Boards?

My ego can only get so big


1. Hmmmm, my favourite wrestler, Edge without a shadow of a doubt, he in my opinion had it all as a wrestler, his Rated R Superstar gimmick really cemented him, it's a shame his neck injury forced his premature retirement, but better safe than sorry i suppose.

2. The first wrestling match i remember watching and thinking my god this is awesome was The Undertaker vs Jeff Hardy in a ladder match for the undisputed WWE championship way back in 2002, the rest is history..

3. I accidentally found the PW Boards, was a long time lurker prior to signing up, plus it's a more friendlier laid back place (putting the mods over here) than the cliquishness that can be found on Reddit's Squared Circle sub reddit.

1. Thank you, thank you very much , it's actually means a lot, going from Newcomer Of The Year to the prestigious Best In The World, a meteoric rise, and said rise will continue into 2016, what's next for me, who knows maybe a run as Moderator could be on the cards..

2. I would say, maybe a 6 on the mad for forgetting the underscore, i'll just clarify it here, it's Lithium93_

3. I am a NUIG Guy, currently doing a 4 year Communications (Cumarsáid in Irish, just in case anyone is confused) course, hoping to head into radio when the 4 years are up, everyone knows i'm a Pro Wrestling Guy, and i'm not ashamed of it. Life's too short to be ashamed of what you like/are interested in.

1. What's your favourite Edge match?

2. If you were a wrestler, what would be your entrance music?

3. How would you book Brock Lesnar for this year's WrestleMania? Can be as vague as you want

1. That's a tricky one, he's had so many good ones, as part of Edge & Christian, and also as a Single's star.. As part of Edge & Christian - Wrestlemania X-7 and THAT spear to Jeff Hardy.. And as a single's star, Wrestlemania 21 and winning the first ever Money In The Bank Ladder Match..

2. If i was a wrestler, my theme would be this

or this

3. Booking Brock Lesnar, I would have him and Paul Heyman return early in 2016 to a MASSIVE BABYFACE POP, with Heyman proclaiming that Brock is going to take back what is rightfully his, that being the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, and he's going to start his path at the RR and that's a spoiler, and anybody who stands in his way, will be sent on a trip to Suplex City, have Heyman drop the mic, him and Brock walk off cocky and all confident..... Only for Kevin Owens to gleefully interrupt, planting his flag for a run with the WWE World Heavyweight Title, then at the Royal Rumble, just as Brock is about to win, have Owens eliminate Lesnar, infuriating both Lesnar & Heyman, Lesnar goes on multiple rampages demanding Owens head, post Rumble through to Fastlane, Owens continues to bait The Beast, teasing will it/won't it, while Heyman & Owens go back and forth on the mics building it up, then the go home show prior to Mania, have them both sign the contract making the match official, massive brawl between the 2, Lesnar puts Owens over as a passing of the torch as the next major monster in the company.

3. Drink of choice,
Soft - Coke, Sprite, 7UP, Fanta, Lilt.
Other - Jack & Coke, Bulmers, Kopparberg, 7UP & Orange Juice.

Is there a storyline or feud that you wish Edge had that either never happened or did happen but you would have done differently yourself?

The one storyline i didn't understand was the whole live sex celebration with Lita, I thought it was cheesy, what should've been done instead is the celebration happening off screen, some one then getting a hold of said tape and using it as leverage against Edge for a WWE Championship match

Also the match with Triple H & Vladimir Kozlov at Survivor Series 2008 was a head scratching one, why not have just left it between Triple H & Kozlov to duke it out for the title.

Would loved to have seen the Mick Foley feud drawn out a bit more.. Some potential there and the opportunity for a cool tag team..

Bounty Hunter

Are you planning to take part in the PW Draft?

if you got first first pick out of any wrestler ever to build your promotion around who would you pick?

What sports team affiliations do you have? are you a Rugby or Soccer man, Man Utd or Munster or something outta left field like the Chicago Bulls?

Our very own Beast From The East

I might take part in the PW Draft if i'm back in the country before the sign up deadline has passed, if not I will follow it closely..

If i got first pick of any wrestler, i would definitely build my promotion around Brock Lesnar

I am a Manchester United supporter through and through, i do follow other sports such as the NFL (even though i have no understanding of it rules wise) prior to last February's Super Bowl, i had correctly guessed the winners from Super Bowl 45 through 48, my only regret I didn't put money on my predictions :pac: Sometimes follow Chicago Blackhawks games as well.

What superstar in NXT do you think is the next one most likely to Romans Reignsed ? as in shoved down our throats by the head office

Pick 1 each from Lucha Underground, TNA, ROH, NXT and NJPW who is ready this minute to go straight on monday night RAW

last but not least , You're least favourite wrestler of all time any where not a heel that was doing his job just a plain guy who made you turn over the channel or fast forward all the time not just one time in his career

I've a gut feeling that the NXT superstar to be Roman Reignsed on us by Vince & his band of merry stooges will be Apollo Crews, strange choice i know, but again gut feeling.

Lucha Underground - Prince Puma, TNA - Jeff Hardy (purely nostalgic selection), NXT - Finn Balor, NJPW - Shinsuke Nakamura

Alberto Del Rio, whenever he had a microphone and was doing his ''It is my Destiny'' shtick, i always changed channel, he was as CM Punk described him, bland/vanilla.

I have, but i don't think i'd be tough enough :pac:

Present Wrestler - Seth Rollins, Past Wrestler - Stone Cold Steve Austin

Would probably go something along the lines of Stone Cold's gimmick

Most important question of all here, if I look in the Royal Rumble thread will I see any potential future spoilers?

And sure, while we're here, what's your favourite huge moment in the WWE in your adult life? Obviously most of my childhood ones involve Austin, but for example mine here would be Ziggler/Sting at Survivor Series 14

My crystal ball says that is a risk you are going to have to take

My favourite huge moment without a shadow of a doubt is Eddie Guerrero beating Brock Lesnar for the WWE Championship at No Way Out 2004

riffmongous

3. The Undertaker's entrance, every time.

CastorTroy

1. So you're not denying knowing what roof is his?

2. You're asked to take a superstar/diva, who isn't over with the fans, under your wing to get them from where they are to someone the people will care about. Who and How?

3. Favourite Irish singer/band?
