Huh, I could've sworn he jobbed at No Way Out.

Actually, they succeed at that very well.

What? Damn, is it not 2004 yet?

Sanford and Son did ok. So did All in the Family (mentioned) and Three's Company.

Are you kidding? DiBiase's intro ruled all.

You might want to check again. Reports here are that the temperature will be around 1F (-17C). The rink won't be the only thing that's frozen that night, that's for sure.

I think Holly will probably get Brock in a SmackDown main event sometime in December. The only way Benoit should get the shot is if they're finally planning on putting the title on him. If he loses another title feud, I think that's the end for him as far as the main event goes, after losing to Angle twice on PPV last year. The problem is, I don't think Cena is quite ready to be put in that position, and I think he'd benefit more from a run with the US title (which looks like what they're positioning him for), meaning that Benoit is the only guy left.

Random, unknown guys? Sure. But the Road Warriors would be over with the Net crowd on the strength of their promos, just like the Rock is today. And the Warrior/HTM situation would be incredibly hard to duplicate, just because no one could make you care enough about them that you'd give anything to see them get beat, like Honky Tonk Man did back in 1988. It wasn't so much that the Warrior was coming out to win the title, it was that, after EIGHTEEN MONTHS of cheating and ducking, HTM was FINALLY getting what he deserved...a good old-fashioned ass-whipping. I submit that charismatic hosses WOULD get over with the smarks today. The problem? There aren't any. Except Big Show, and that's mainly for comedy. Remember, Big Show's run after WM2K was widely praised, even though his work hadn't gotten any better.

I just got a new computer (reinstalling all my programs now, in fact), and I have to say that 512 MB of RAM is more than enough. Also, if you can, ditch the Pentium chip in favour of an AMD. You'll save quite a bit, and you won't lose hardly a thing in performance. You'll pay an extra 70-80 pounds just for the Intel name.

That promo didn't suck either. THAT is the guy they need to get over.

Well, what do you know...that didn't suck at all.

Methinks a good match here is beyond even St. Benoit's powers.

Yowch.

Looks like Bradshaw would rather be drinking. I know the feeling.

OHMYGOD A SITOUT POWERBOMB!!!1

Man, that music sucks.

Wasn't Flair the smallest original Horseman? He, Tully and Arn were around the same size, I think. And Ole was a dumbass.

The smallest guy in the room is bitching these guys out and all they can do is stand and take it? What a bunch of pussies.

Cena rules.

Again, from slashwrestling: Edge: Wow, Billy - you sound like a human vaccuum cleaner - managing to both suck and blow at the same time! And Billy, since you're not really doing anything late, I was wondering if you could do me a favour - if in two years' time at the King of the Ring I'm not defending a title, or even in a match, and my very special assignment is to go to WWF New York and eat a meatball sandwich, then please - just shoot me in the head! 1999 is SO two years ago, and it's not my fault if you've done a big pile of nothing since then! That doesn't give you the right to come out and rain on MY parade - and Commissioner, I vow to you that I will not 'Billy Gunn' this King of the Ring title, because Billy...I plan on being entertaining. Billy: Yeah, you wanta be real entertaining? How 'bout if I kick your royal ass right here tonight? Edge: Sounds good, Commissioner? Regal: I suppose it'd be all right, yes. Edge: Great. Then I hereby decree that the first act in the Era of Awesomeness will be to totally annihilate Billy Bitchcakes!

This was the promo that really started turning me off Hogan as a kid...listen to the egomaniac: Gene: Viewing that footage, Hulk Hogan, the only thing I can say is, what a difference a year makes! A year ago at this time, at WrestleMania IV, you were at the side of the Macho Man when he became the undisputed World Wrestling Federation champ. One year later, here in Atlantic City, you're going to be challenging this very same man for the world crown. Hulk: Well, you know, you're exactly right, Mean Gene. One year ago, brother, me and the Macho Man were as one. We were best of friends. We would do anything to win together, brother. And if you would've told me one year later, right in the very same place that it started, in the Trump Plaza, that we'd be locking horns, going head on head, for the WWF Championship, I'd'a called you a liar, Mean Gene! But you know something, I should've seen this thing coming, man. As the Megapower team was formed, brother, as the SummerSlams, as the Survivor Series went down, as the Megapowers started growing together, the Mania was a little bit ahead of the Madness, man -- but it really didn't matter! You were either in, or you were either out, brother. You either believed or you didn't, man. And you were either ready, or you weren't! The Macho Man made me feel that he believed in the three demandments, of the prayers, the training and the vitamins. He made me believe that he was in my corner, Mean Gene, and he also made me believe that we was ready to fight all odds. That's why I stuck with him, brother. That's why we stayed together so long. (growls) Gene: You know, as that relationship of the Megapowers deteriorated even further, Macho Man Randy Savage went so far as to attack your Hulkamaniacs! Hulk: Oh yeah, he did more than just attack the Hulkamaniacs, brother. He went so far, as to put our manager, the lovely Elizabeth, right between us, man! It was him that was eaten alive by the jealousy. It was him that was eaten alive by the lust, brother. It was the simple fact that the Macho Man couldn't be the man all my Hulkamaniacs wanted him to be, brother. He couldn't handle the load -- he couldn't handle the pressure! But what really tore us apart, was the way he was so jealous of Hulkamania...the way he put Elizabeth between us...the way he manipulated her, the way he twisted this whole beaultiful thing around! But I found out one thing, Macho Man. You're not a believer in the demandments, brother. You're a cheap-shot artist. You take whatever you can get, as quick as you want. You were never in my corner -- you were always on the outside, waiting for me to make the first move! But just like Donald Trump, Macho Man, I hope you're ready, brother. Because Donald Trump has question in his own mind! He sent a whole team of seismetologists (sic) out here to check the foundations of the Trump Towers, because, when the Megapowers explode off the launching pad, brother, as we erupt over the whole Atlantic City, he was worried about the foundation. He was worried that the thousands of people in the arena might become unseated and swallowed up by the earth! Donald Trump, don't worry about my Hulkamaniacs. They're survivors -- they're ready! But YOU, Macho Man, I don't care where you stand, I don't care what you believe in, all I want from you is your best! I want you to be ready! I want the Macho Madness to be at its peak! Because when Hulkamania rules, when Hulkamania lives forever, when Hulkamania puts you down on your knees, I want the whole world to realize that I beat you at your best! And at the end of WrestleMania V, I will be the World Wrestling Federation champion! And whatcha gonna do, Macho Man, when the whole world full of Hulkamaniacs DESTROY YOU? (growls)

Thanks, man. I now have Coke all over my monitor. ADDENDUM: 5-11, 120 lbs? Someone contact the World Vision folks and get this guy something to eat.

Maybe not, but lots of acting too stupid to live.

That deserves a Darwin Award nomination.

Absolutely. All states have mandatory reporting laws on the books. Here is a summary of all the relevant statutes.
