That was just great. Mickey appearing out of nowhere made me laugh the most. This might be the first time Rocky V has been parodied on South Park, what with the "I didn't hear no bell" line. I don't think there was a message or a moral to this episode. I think Matt and Trey just wanted to mock Rocky. And did anyone else catch that one person singing in falsetto "You're The Best Around" during Randy's fight with the Batman? And I agree there should be a Randy Marsh-centered episode of South Park.

I do that every year. One WrestleMania a day up until the event itself.

Sure. The more the better. Well, I already have the "My Sacrifice" Desire video already on tape, but I would LOVE to see the Kurt Angle "Clocks" Desire video again, so yeah, post that one, please.

-The unedited, uncut ending to "Rage In The Cage: PR/Panther II" -"The Corporate Champion" Tha Puerto Rican speaks on "Rage In The Cage: PR/Panther II" -Stephen Joseph Popick has a special announcement EDIT: Oh, and no match for PRL this week, as he is still "feeling the effects" of the Steel Cage Match against Panther. However, if anybody wants to fight any of the other members of The Lightning Crew this week, do so. Just PM me first so that I know which member you want to fight.

This may sound like an odd request, but could someone post some old pay-per-view commercials, video packages, and introductions? There are some commercials that I would love to see (like the WrestleMania VII commercial where Vince announces the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum location, or the Survivor Series 1998 Deadly Game one), some old intros I like (the "Mr. McMahon's Utopia" from Over The Edge '98), and some video packages that I haven't seen in a while (like the Austin-Rock package from WrestleMania X-Seven). If someone could post some, especially the ones I mentioned, then that would be greatly apperciated. Thanks in advance.

Well, Crystal debuted on the IntenseZone after AngleMania II, and The Mad Cappa had been around since February of 2003, so we're not alone. PRL, Popick, Dan Black, T-Bod, The Lightning Crew, Colombian Heat, and The Mad Cappa were the only iZ wrestlers who went to HeldDOWN~! after the roster merger.

That's gotta be the worst cast in the history of the show.

When did the WWF scratch logo blurring begin? Because I remember as late as October 2002, that the WWF scratch logo could still be clearly seen in video packages and in the magazines. I have the Hulkamania magazine that came out in the summer of 2002, and in the pictures showing Hogan back in the WWF with the nWo, the WWF scratch logo is seen with no blurring whatsoever. The WWE logo does appear in the magazine, but so does the WWF scratch logo.

Eminem said in an interview back in 2000 that Will Smith's speech at the 1999 MTV Video Music Awards, in which Smith said that he doesn't curse, doesn't rap about drugs, violence, or abuse to women, and is still sucessful, was an insult to him, an insult to Dre, and an insult to the "gender" (that's right he said gender instead of genre) of rap music. Yup. It's at the beginning of the second verse: Will Smith don't have to curse in his raps to sell records/Well I do/So fuck him/And fuck you too

I'm suprised nobody has responded by saying "Jadakiss is a rapper? Oh, he must be garbage then, because rap is crap." or something along those lines. TSM isn't exactly overflowing with rap fans, so I'm not suprised when someone bashes rap on this board.

Shawn Michaels vs. Bret "The Hitman" Hart-Steel Cage Match http://s49.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=12KKLD3...SH1CWEZ13E3F6EQ This is apart of a Coliseum Home Video tape, although I don't know which one, and is from March/April 1994. It's about 13 minutes long. Johnny Polo is awesome on commentary.

How about we bring back Jesse "The Body" Ventura?

1) What is your favorite WM, top to bottom, of all time? -WrestleMania X-Seven 2) What is your least favorite WM of all time? -WrestleMania 2: What The World Is Coming To. It's the only WM I groan having to watch every year during my annual WrestleMania countdown. 3) What is your favorite WM match? -Stone Cold Steve Austin vs. The Rock (WrestleMania X-Seven) 4) What is your least favorite WM match? -Undertaker vs. Big Bossman Hell In A Cell from WrestleMania XV: The Ragin' Climax, although Rick Rude vs. Jake "The Snake" Roberts from WrestleMania IV: What The World Is Watching was pretty darn boring too, as was Tori vs. Sable also from WrestleMania XV. 5) Name some honorable mentions for favorite match: -Triple H vs. Shawn Michaels vs. Chris Benoit, World Heavyweight Title Match, WrestleMania XX: Where It All Begins Again -"Macho Man" Randy Savage vs. Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat, Intercontinental Title Match, WrestleMania III: Bigger, Badder, Better -Stone Cold Steve Austin vs. Bret "The Hitman" Hart with special referee Ken Shamrock, Submission Match, WrestleMania 13: Heat -Edge & Christian vs. The Hardy Boyz vs. The Dudley Boyz, Tag Team Titles Match, TLC II, WrestleMania X-Seven -Ultimate Warrior vs. "Macho Man" Randy Savage, Retirement Match, WrestleMania VII: Superstars And Stripes Forever -Bret "The Hitman" Hart vs. "The Rocket" Owen Hart, WrestleMania X: Ten Years In The Making -Hulk Hogan vs. Andre The Giant, WWF Title Match, WrestleMania III: Bigger, Badder, Better -Hulk Hogan vs. Ultimate Warrior, WWF Title Match, WrestleMania VI: The Ultimate Challenge -Hulk Hogan vs. "Macho Man" Randy Savage, WWF Title Match, WrestleMania V: The Megapowers Explode -Razor Ramon vs. Shawn Michaels, Intercontinental Title, Ladder Match, WrestleMania X: Ten Years In The Making 6) What is your favorite WM venue? -Pontiac Silverdome (WrestleMania III); Madison Square Garden (WrestleMania I, WrestleMania X, WrestleMania XX); Toronto SkyDome (WrestleMania VI, WrestleMania X-8); RCA Dome (WrestleMania VIII); Caesar's Palace (WrestleMania IX); Safeco Field (WrestleMania XIX); Reliant Astrodome (WrestleMania X-Seven) 7) What is your least favorite WM venue? -Hartford Civic Center in Hartford, Connecuit. I don't care that it was near the WWF Headquarters, that arena was just blah. To this day, I question why a WrestleMania was held there. There was nothing special to that place at all. A WrestleMania should not be held there. 8) Going in, which WM card do you think looked the best on paper? -Don't really pay attention to stuff like that. 9) Going in, which WM card do you think looked worst on paper? -Again, don't really pay attention to stuff like that. 10) What do you think is the most underrated WM of all time? -WrestleMania VII: Superstars And Stripes Forever. And I'll throw in WrestleMania IX, even though it's mostly because of nostalgia reasons, as I had just gotten back into the WWF, and this was the first pay-per-view I saw. WrestleMania VIII was really good too, but I don't think that gets alot of reconigtion. And I'd add in WrestleMania XV, but that's more for nostalgia reasons too (It happened during my best year ever, or atleast the best year of my childhood). If I look at it without nostalgia, the show is kinda bad. 11) What do you think is the most overrated WM of all time? -None of them are overrated to me. 12) What is your favorite WM moment? -Six way tie: -"Macho Man" Randy Savage and Miss Elizabeth reuniting after the Retirement Match at WrestleMania VII: Superstars And Stripes Forever. -Bret "The Hitman" Hart celebrating with the WWF babyfaces with Owen looking on after defeating Yokozuna and winning the WWF Title at WrestleMania X: Ten Years In The Making. -Hulk Hogan slamming Andre The Giant at WrestleMania III: Bigger, Badder, Better -Hulk Hogan handing Ultimate Warrior the WWF Championship belt, and then the two of them hugging, followed by Warrior celebrating in the ring, while Hogan looks on in tears at WrestleMania VI: The Ultimate Challenge. -Andre The Giant turning against Bobby "The Brain" Hennan and leaving the Toronto SkyDome to the cheers of the crowd at WrestleMania VI: The Ultimate Challenge. -Chris Benoit making Triple H tap to the Crippler Crossface, winning the World Heavyweight Title, and celebrating with the WWE Champion Eddie Guerrero admist cheers, fireworks, and confetti at WrestleMania XX: Where It All Begins...Again. I get chills everytime I watch that. 13) What is your least favorite WM moment? -Triple H defeating Booker T at WrestleMania XIX. 14) Who would you pick as the top three Wrestlemania performers of all time? -Hulk Hogan -Bret "The Hitman" Hart -Stone Cold Steve Austin 15) How many of the previous 20 Wrestlemanias have you seen? All of them. 16) What was the most surprising WM moment to you? Triple H tapping out cleanly to Chris Benoit at WrestleMania XX: Where It All Begins...Again. "Rowdy" Roddy Piper showing up during the Hulk Hogan/Vince McMahon match at WrestleMania XIX. 17) Who was your favorite "special guest" at a WM? -Bob Uecker (WrestleMania III, WrestleMania IV), with Pete Rose (WrestleMania XIV, WrestleMania XV, WrestleMania 2000) coming in at a close second. 18) Which WM have you seen the most times? -WrestleMania X: Ten Years In The Making. 19) Which WM commentary team was your favorite? -Gorilla Monsoon and Jesse "The Body" Ventura. 20) Above all, what do you want to see at WM this year? -In a perfect world, The Rock would make an appearance. But in reality: Batista goes over. Cena goes over. Hulk Hogan. Angle vs. HBK. Piper's Pit with Stone Cold. The good wrestlers have good matches. The bad wrestlers have short matches.

As someone who likes Will Smith's music, I can say that I find that song to be shit. I HOPE that is not real. It's terrible. Will Smith shouldn't do battle raps. He should do what he does best: non-threatening rap music for people that don't like rap music. And I liked Indepedence Day too.

Oh God, is it that movie that was reviewed on x-entertainment.com where someone is dressed in a hideous Rainbow Brite costume, and she helps these two kids fight these bad guys who turn animals gray...even though everything ends up turning gray because the movie had almost no special effects whatsoever? I wanna see that movie too.

Is the Italian championship a legit belt? I thought it was a vanity title. Well, when I created the Puerto Rican Championship belt back in 2003, it started off as a vanity belt. But then last year, the week before AngleMania III, I wrote a segment for IntenseZone, where Stephen Popick announced that the Puerto Rican Championship was now an official OAOAST Title. And it's been that way ever since. So, therefore, the Italian Championship is reconized as a legitimate OAOAST Title belt. Great show, this week. I only skimmed through it, but I like what I saw. I'll try to read the whole thing later.

Good luck, Cappa. Can't wait till you get back, man!

That Huckster/Nacho Man match was hilarious. I loved that Vince and Jerry Lawler did the announcing Mystery Science Theater 3000 style. That was great. The match sucked, but I laughed at everything else, like when Vince and Lawler fast forwarded Huckster's entrance, and he was still standing in the entrance aisle. I thought that segment was pretty funny.

Well, I can't speak for Spin City, but no, Friends never did a 9/11-related episode. Infact, I think that's one of the reasons why the ratings for Friends shot up in the 8th Season, because the terrorist attacks never happened in their universe, and people could watch a show where New York will still the same. The only references to 9/11 were the Twin Towers being cut out of the opening and in the exterior shots, and that in Joey and Rachel's apartment, an American flag hung on the door. Another Parent Hood "special episode": Nick's school is doing a presentation on famous black people, and Nick chooses Buckwheat from The Little Rascals. Nick's parents then talk about racial stereotypes, and how for many years the only roles black people got in films in Hollywood were degrading, racist, stereotypical roles. In the end, Nick still dresses up as Buckwheat, but he then removes the wig, and talks about the racism blacks had to deal with in Hollywood. Then, Robert Townsend does a segment which shows a bunch of black actors from the 1930s, 40s, and 50s, and says that this episode is dedicated to all the black actors who had to do stereotypical roles in Hollywood.

Rage Against The Machine: I first saw them on an episode of 12 Angry Viewers on MTV back in 1997. On the show, one of the VJs, Ananda, would show videos, and 12 regular folks would vote on the videos, with a winner being decided at the end of the show. One day, the video for "Bulls On Parade" was shown. I really liked the video, but I completely forgot about them. Then, in October 1999, "Guerilla Radio" came out, and I dug that song big time. I didn't know the words, I didn't know who any of the members were, but I loved the video, and the song was hella catchy. Linkin Park: Saw "One Step Closer" on a local New York Public Access show in October 2000, and dismissed them at first. But then the video got heavy rotation, and the song kept getting played on the radio, and eventually the song grew on me. It also helped that I was 13 at the time, and so I was in their target market, what with me being one of those "sucicidal angsty" teenagers who felt like "nobody understood them" and thought that "mom and dad never loved me". I got Hybrid Theory in May of 2001, and I played the hell out of that CD, all the while listening to the songs going, "Wow. That's how I feel. Linkin Park understands me." Public Enemy: I remembered seeing them on MTV and BET back in the early 90s. Flavor Flav used to frighten me when I was 3. Then several years passed, and they came back with "He Got Game" which I enjoyed. Then in 1999, I saw the video for "Fight The Power" for the first time, and I really liked that video. In April 2002, out of the blue, I said to myself, "Hmmm. Let me download some Public Enemy songs." I did, liked them alot, and by August 2002, I had become a real *fan* of Public Enemy. From late 2002 till early 2004, they were my most listened to musical act. I didn't get my first Public Enemy album until 2004 (Revolverlution, their last album), because no record store in my neighborhood carried PE records! I only have two of them now, Revolverlution, and Fear Of A Black Planet, because those are the only two I could find. I won't give up though. I'm going to keep on looking until I have all their albums! Quarashi: First time I heard of Quarashi, was when I saw the music video for "Stick 'Em Up" in April 2002 on MTV. I thought they sucked, and dismissed them as nothing more but a lame, Linkin Park ripoff, bland nu-metal band. However, I saw the video several more times, and soon, the song grew on me. Then I forgot about them for a few months. But then, one day, in October 2002, I was flipping through the channels, when I caught the video for "Mr. Jinx" on Much Music. I immedialtey LOVED the song, and the next day I downloaded it, and played it a good 100 times that day. For a week, "Mr. Jinx" was the only song I listened to, and it's now #2 on my all-time favorite songs list, and my all-time favorite Quarashi song. I LOVE that song so much. It's SO catchy, and I don't believe that anyone can hate that song. Anyway, "Mr. Jinx" was the only Quarashi song I listened to for over a year. One day, I decided to check out Quarashi's website, after I heard "Mr. Jinx" on a NBA On TNT commercial. When I found out that they had replaced their lead rapper with a new one, I swore myself off the band forever. That lasted a few months, before I decided to go back and listen to some of their other songs. I saw the video for "Race City", Quarashi's first song with their new lead rapper, and liked it alot, so I went on their website alot more than I used to. In April 2004, I downloaded "Baseline", and the first time I heard it was the exact moment I became an actual fan of Quarashi, and not just of "Mr. Jinx". Beastie Boys: I first saw them during a commercial for an 80's compliation CD ("(You've Gotta) Fight For Your Right (To Party)" was the video shown) way back in 1997. The next year, they came out with "Intergalatic" which I liked. After that, I started listening to their singles, all of which I enjoyed alot, but I wouldn't say I was an actual *fan* of The Beasties. I didn't know their names, and I couldn't tell their voices apart in the songs. It wasn't until April 2004 that I decided to buy a Beastie Boys album, because I thought that if I liked all the singles they've released, then there was a good chance I would like their albums. I got Paul's Boutique, because I heard it was a classic album. Gave it one spin, and left it collecting dust for months. Now, Paul's Boutique is my all-time favorite album. I forgot about The Beastie Boys again, but then "Ch-Check It Out" came out in May 2004, and my interest in the Beasties peaked up again. When I moved to Miami, I got To The Five Boroughs and Check Your Head, and thought both albums were awesome. One fun night in July 2004, spent doing research on The Beastie Boys by going on their websites, reading their history, watching all their videos, and learning what their names were, and I now considered myself a fan of The Beastie Boys. Now, in 2005, I own all their albums, I listen to them ad nasuem, and they are my 2nd favorite rap group of all-time (behind Public Enemy). In a nutshell, I think The Beastie Boys are freakin' AWESOME! Skye Sweetnam: I caught her music video for "Billy S." on my birthday back in September 2003. My first thought was "Damn! That girl is hot!" I went on the internet and found info about her, saw some pictures, and then I just forgot all about her afterwards, because I was too busy concentrating on Christy Carlson Romano. Then, in March 2004, while watching The-N again, I saw a commercial hyping her appearance on Radio Free Roscoe the next week. And so, for the next week, all I did was surf the internet for anything I could find relating to Skye Sweetnam. This all took place 2 weeks before WWE WrestleMania XX, so, during that time, all I did was watch my old WrestleMania tapes, and go on the internet searching for anything Skye Sweetnam related. That was a great 2 weeks actually. Anyway, I saw her little homemade videos that are on her official website, and I think that was what cinched it for me, because she was so nice in those videos, and she is a pretty good singer, not to mention she's a pretty hot girl, so after that I became a fan. I got her debut CD (her only CD infact), Noise From The Basement, and enjoyed it, and I look forward to hearing many more CDs from her in the future. March-June 2004 was a great period in my life, partly because of Skye Sweetnam, Quarashi, and The Beastie Boys. The other bands/artists/groups I like came from listening to their songs on the radio, and seeing their videos on MTV and liking them. The above six are the most interesting stories.

The Quarashi Edition: 1.) "Mr. Jinx" 2.) "Transparent Parents" 3.) "Catch 22" 4.) "Baseline" 5.) "Delphi" The fact that 3 of the 5 songs are from Jinx is no concidence. Jinx is my favorite Quarashi album for a reason.

I got Snoop Doggy Dogg's Doggystyle. It really is pretty damn good. I liked the retro funk grooves (I'm a sucker for a funky bass or a "wacachika" guitar) that were in every song on the album (That's G-Funk right?), and Snoop dropped some pretty dope rhymes. I think this will be the only Snoop album I'll own though, since I hear that his other albums aren't that great.
