The Amazing French Canadians singing Oh Canada in French causing Tony and Larry to say "they're making up the words" was pretty funny in an ignorant way. Benoit saying "talk to the hand" was something else.

I'm not winning so I'm glad it's over. You can all be defeated in Season 10.

GameStop's insistence on lining stores with Wii boxes that say "$249" while not actually having any in stock is quite the annoying practice. I guess the key is looking for the red sign that says "Now in stock!" on the display boxes as they were on every PS3 box display at anystore I went to in Dearborn, MI yesterday.

It's just a syndicated take on GSN's PlayMania (which was a take on the UK's Quiznation, which is what that version of the US Playmania now calls itself). Look it all up in wikipedia.

Classic WWE Footage Entrance Music Clearence
DrVenkman PhD replied to spman's topic in General Wrestling
The only Mania Hogan used the Hendrix theme for was 19 and he was a face (so dubbing in Real American would make more sense). He just came out to the nWo theme (which they also overdubbed with some generic music on every DVD after that release, then put the music back on 24/7) at WM18. -
That was C&P from WWE.com. I like the way Donny Whalberg calls Fuji "The Legendary" Mr. Fuji at Mania X.

Not to mention the 40 cakes. And that's terrible!

The blooper real is very good and Joe Furey's "One Man NewsRadio" for Season 5 & hypothetical 6 is kinda funny (the funniest part being his impressions of Mr. James saying "Uncle Jimmy"). "Uncle Jimmy" always cracks me up based on the first Walt episode where Bill misunderstands why Walt says Uncle Jimmy. "UNCLE Jimmy? We're hiring Jimmy's boytoys now?"

I didn't really like anything non Warners/Slappy/P&B, the Hippos being the worst and Slappy being the best. That Baloney 'Imagine' song is still stuck in my head all these years later. "I is for imagine, M is for me, A is for the letter 'a', G is for 'g'. I is for (pause) imagine, N is for nice. E is for E-gain, I said imagine twice". The Power Rangers parody episode where they caused a bunch of collateral damage was good too. I don't quite recall the main plot, but the Warners dropping 'bombs' on something by throwing Howard the Duck, Ishtar, and others was pretty damned funny.

Let's say that StrapFinlay is WP because he has a Bulldogs avatar. Also I hear that reality1420 guy is FBTG/Hotbutter.

I've never considered Hogan a bad promo in his early days. Nonsensical maybe, but entertaining. Some of his heel WCW stuff (a lot of which I'm now seeing for the first time) seems odd. Why does he bring up starring in crappy movies like 3 Ninjas at Megamountain as a good thing? The Iron Sheik legends roundtable (which was not properly uploaded to my system it's first run) was great. Is it me (and spman, who first told me to look for it) or did Sheik not once but twice call Mean Gene an "intelligent jew" (the second time was "intelligent jew businessman")? I couldn't stop laughing.

Top WWE wrestlers named in SI steroid investigation.
DrVenkman PhD replied to Downhome's topic in The WWE Folder
Thursday, March 22, 2007 HELMS RESPONDS! So, heard any good internet stories lately? :) Before I start I wanna say that the fans here in Mexico City are awesome! They greeted us in the airport with cheers, hugs and gifts and an enthusiasm that reminds me of just why I love perfoming so much! Now, before I clear the air, I wanna ask a question? If you get hurt and a doctor prescribes you a medicine/drug and therapy to help you and you take it, did that become wrong somewhere? Did I miss a meeting? No need to answer because apparently the answer is yes. Apparently pro wrestlers never get hurt and if they do they aren't allowed to get treatment. So anyway, here's the story, several years ago I had hurt my knee and was advised by 2 different doctors to undergo this particular therapy. I didn't ask for it, hell, I didn't even know about it, all I knew is that I didn't want to have to have surgery. Not to mention that I would like for my life after wrestling to be as painless as possible. I won't be able to wrestle forever and I would hope that I'm entitled to the best quality of life availalbe to me when that time comes. I would like to think that it's well in my human rights to take whatever a doctor tells me to if it helps my condition and relieves my pain. Isn't that what everyone goes to a doctor for? Shane Helms committed no crime and did absolutely nothing illegal. And that is a FACT!!! Trust me, there are a million ways to get any kind of legal or illegal medicine/drug you want. However, I was under the assumption that going thru a doctor, getting treatment and therapy for a totally LEGAL medicine was the right way to go about dealing with this particular injury. And this injury that might have led to surgery had I not taken the therapy that I did. It's strange how that part of the story was conviently left out! Besides, look at me! I'm not 300 lbs of muscle, the biggest I've ever been is 215, I'm not abusing ANYTHING other that the abuse my body takes doing the job I love. Hell, I didn't even drink alcohol until I was 27. Now I get that this "reporter" was just doing his job and was only using certain names from his list to sensationalize the article. And I guess it makes it sound more colorful to use the name Hurricane although I haven't been The Hurricane in almost 2 years now. Hell I guess this guy can pretty much get away with saying whatever he feels, I honestly don't know. I don't know him and I don't even deal with that particular Doctor anymore either. And if that Doctor did anything wrong himself, as long as it didn't involve me it shouldn't concern me or be directed towards me. Am I making an excuse? Not at all. Making up an excuse would be admitting that I did something wrong or illegal. I did neither. I'm just a guy that has torn his body to shreds for the job he loves. And there are times that I've had to do to the hospital and get different kinds of medicines/drugs/whatever to help me heal. I'm not Wolverine, I can't heal from every injury instantaneaously. I get hurt! And I'll get hurt again. I've said a million times, I never got into wrestling for the fame or the fortune, I got into because I genuinely love it. I put 100% of my heart into it and unfortunately my body pays the price. That's not a complaint, that's simply . . . reality. On a different note. I hope my performance this week on Smackdown this week is okay. I had one of the worst flu-bugs of my life this weekend. I was sick to a point where I couldn't get out of bed and questioned whether I'd even be able to make it to do TV this week. However, I did make it to the show. I found out that I'd be wrestling Chris Benoit and then had to make a decision, call in sick or try and tough it out. Calling in sick . . . . not my style. I vomitted a total of 3 times in the 2 hours leading up to my match and I was really just physically drained as I was standing at the curtain. I remember Johnny Ace and Dean Malenko both asking me was I ok, I shook my head yes, but my body was saying, "Wtf?" :) Anyway, I did the match. It might not be the performance of my life, but I gave it everything I had. Not to mention, I took a knee to the head that almosted ended my night on contact! LOL Later, I got to the back, tried drinking a Gatorade, threw that up as well, threw up twice more and was finally done with the "being sick" portion of my evening. My partners in crime, the CCB, took damn good care of me. I love my friends and my world is a brighter place because of them. Now strangely enough but not surprisingly at all, this story didn't make any of the wrestling news websites. I guess making wrestling or wrestlers (especially me) look good is something they don't like to do much anymore, there's no "HITS" off of good news ya know? It boggles my mind when I think about how much exposure these "enemies of pro-wrestling" get off of pro-wrestling websites. How many years have I been on the net giving countless hours of myself to my fans? How many hosiptals and schools have I visited to help under priviledged kids and wounded soldiers? How much money have I donated to various charities for no other reason than to help. All of these things are neglected by these websites yet they all jumped on this story just to drum up attention. Makes me wonder if this BLOG will receive as many posts? With that being said, I want to thank from the bottom of my heart all the support from my friends and family since this debacle started. My "inner circle" stays tight! Surprisingly, even the MySpace crowd has been, I'd say . . . 97% positive. I think my personality comes thru on my page and this attempt to villify me has thankfully fallen on a lot of deaf ears. To the 3% or so that have said bad things to or about me regarding this issue whether here or in some other forum, hey, it's all cool. You can't hurt me, cuz you mean nothing to me. Thanks again to everyone that's supported me, I love you all. Now forget all this bullshit and go have some fun! -
There's a slight chance it could be, and that's a chance more than slight enough to toast this hot buttered reality zombie from the year 1480. That worked out nicely... in a way.

Seriously, humanoid92 is awesome. It's rare to see an internet wrestling fan try to put a positive spin on things. When I was 12, I thought the Luger slam on Yokozuna was cool, but when I was 14 that became a distant memory when Ahmed Johnson did it bigger, better, and blacker. Too bad Ahmed ended up being far worse than Lex... but for a few months, I thought Ahmed was the man. Giant Gonzalez: Am I incorrect in remembering that on some TV show at some point in the Summer of 93, Savage pinned Gonzalez clean, followed by Gonzalez turning face and then never appearing on TV again? In doing some research, I see at both a Superstars and Challenge taping, Gonzalez jobbed to Savage followed by several USWA jobs to Lawler and Jarrett. "Jerry Lawler pinned Bret Hart in a steel cage match at 14:39 after an interfering Giant Gonzalez accidentally clotheslined Hart; earlier in the bout, Owen Hart came out and attempted to climb the cage but Jeff Jarrett prevented him from doing so, with the two then brawling at ringside; after the bout, Bret and Gonzalez double teamed Lawler in the ring, with Bret applying the Sharpshooter; moments later, Owen attacked Jarrett in the ring while Gonzalez knocked down the referee and hit a chokeslam on Lawler". This is a wacky scenario to play out in your head. Damn I wish WWE had the rights to USWA footage.

That's par for the course, is it not? It's unfortunate they didn't have an answer for "why is the only subtitle option Portugese?" (unless "the show is big in Brazil" wasn't a joke).

"All dogs are boys and all cats are girls" dialogue: Max: We're not disputing their sex, just the gender. Lisa: They're the same thing! Max: Not so! I would much rather have sex than have gender! Lisa: Well seeing as how you have neither, that must be very sad for you. Season 5... not that bad. One of the commentaries (for whatever the name of the episode Matthew thinks Lisa put him through a satanic ritual) has a running list of censor notes from throughout the series. It's neat hearing them answer the e-mail questions too.
