IWD Posted August 12, 2003 Report Posted August 12, 2003 Any thoughts people? Whether they're daft, naive or totally incomprehendable, list them here... OK.
Guest BAR Posted August 12, 2003 Report Posted August 12, 2003 "Who was that other Bulldog? He was shit!" - Daniel Cunningham "(Blah, blah, blah referring to Percy Pringle) PAUL BARRETT!" - James Hunter "(Referring to Darren Drozdov) It's Draws!" - Daniel Sinclair And the marks national anthem: "The Warrior's dead!"
Guest Ray Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 I've heard some stupid shit in my time: "HHH is great coz he has the belt and yu don't" "Kurt Angel is the best wrestler in WWE and he has gold medalz to prove it" "like it or not, HHH is still teh game and hes still that damn good" "Angle is better then Benoit, why? cuz Benoit dont have olimpic gold!" "Goldberg is a great wrestler cuz he beat 170 ppl and no one ever done that before" "Eddie Gurrero aint a technical wrestler cause hes a lucha wrestler" "Beniot sucks coz he cant talk" That's their spelling, btw.
Papacita Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 Tony Chimmel at a Smackdown taping in 2000: "We are getting ready for our taping of USA's Sunday Night Heat." 2 marks sitting behind me: "What's Sunday Night Heat???" That one always makes me laugh.
Cran Da Maniac Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 My brother, during last nights Raw. "That's not the same Kane that wore the mask is it? He was a different person then right?"
Corey_Lazarus Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 "There were 4 Ultimate Warrior's." "Ric Flair sucks and always sucked."
Lil' Bitch Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 During the Invasion / Alliance Mark: (insert WCW / ECW wrestler here) sucks because they're from WCW / ECW!
The Metal Maniac Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 Lemme set the scene - me and a few people are in school, discussing wrestling. This was shortly after Brock Lesnar showed up, and like, the day after he F-5'ed Rikishi. Anyway, we were talking about how fucking impressive it was, and we tried to explain this to one of the females sitting at our table, even though she doesn't like/watch wrestling. Her comment? "He was probably attached to some wires." WHAT THE SHIT? It always boggles my mind how people will believe the MOST ridiculous things before they'll admit that anything in wrestling could be even close to real. For another example, there's the old "Goose skin" theory...
Youth N Asia Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 I knew this one asshole who just knew everything about everything even though he knew nothing about shit. Tried to convince me that the WWF had a tv title and it's two holders were Mikey Whipwreck and The Big Bossman. I asked him for one piece of proof...funny, he never had one. Also had this one dickcheese who went on and on about Hogan and Beefcake being brothers. I also knew a kid who claimed to be Hogan's grandkid...and his mom backed it up.
Guest thetrendsetter Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 The beefcake/hogan thing could possibly be passible... Back when Ed Leslie broke in, he was billed as hogan's brother, and it's stuck with alot of people since... It was a work, but from a time when many thought it may have been real, and carried over
Guest Askewniverse Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 At a SmackDown house show in June: "Why are you guys cheering John Cena? He just insulted us!"
Guest thetrendsetter Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 A Guy I know, who was trying to break into the buisness asked Chris Benoit at a press confrence (Keeping in mind that the guy was trying to break into the buisness, and had the opprotunity to ask a worker of benoit's calibre a Question: "Who Would Win in a shoot fight, Nathan Jones Or Goldberg..."
CanadianChick Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 I love comments from people who don't watch wrestling better: Them: "It's all fake." Me: "It's pre-determined, not fake" Them: "That means it's fake" Me: "What's your favorite show?" Them: "Friends (or any other popular show)" Me: "Hm, well that's fake too." Them: "No! It's different!" Me: "Okay, explain how it's different" Them: "Uh, I gotta go"
LaParkaYourCar Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 A friend of mine upon seeing Big Show: Friend: "Hey it's Andre the Giant's son!" Me: "No that was just a storyline" Friend: "No it's not!" Me: "Umm yeah it is and in fact they dropped the storyline not that long later. He hasn't been referred to as Andre's son in quite awhile" Friend: "Dude you're wrong" Me: "Then why did they run a storyline about Big Show's dad dying years after Andre died? Yeah the storyline sucked, but it would seem odd for them to do that if they were still saying he was Andre's son." My friend was still not convinced so we just dropped it.
Youth N Asia Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 I also had to convince someone that Renegade was not the Ultimate Warrior...although I can see someone making that mistake.
LaParkaYourCar Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 But Renegade didn't look anything like him. I was so pissed off when Hogan's "ultimate" surprise ended up being Renegade.
Guest Fook Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 I once had someone tell me that Vince wasn't the owner of the WWF until he revealed himself as the owner on tv. Apparently he was just an announcer before then. Of course, I asked them how on earth someone would go from being a regular announcer to the owner of a global corporation so quickly. Their answer: "Because he's a good businessman." You can't make stuff like that up.
alfdogg Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 One kid in 6th grade told me that when Ultimate Warrior died, he got $700 out of his will.
Guest dvkorn Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 "There have been 3 different Undertaker's"
The Amazing Rando Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 I love comments from people who don't watch wrestling better: Them: "It's all fake." Me: "It's pre-determined, not fake" Them: "That means it's fake" Me: "What's your favorite show?" Them: "Friends (or any other popular show)" Me: "Hm, well that's fake too." Them: "No! It's different!" Me: "Okay, explain how it's different" Them: "Uh, I gotta go" the "Friends" retaliation is my favorite thing to do to a mark
Internet Warfare Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 My friend on Gail Kim " She's Canadian, so she has to be good." What a goof.
Youth N Asia Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 One kid in 6th grade told me that when Ultimate Warrior died, he got $700 out of his will. That's actually a cool little story
The Kid Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 "Rey Mysterio is the best Mexican wrestler ever!" "Rey Mysterio is the best Cruiserweight ever!" "Goldberg is better than any other wrestler ever." "Benoit sucks, he can't wrestle and he's boring. I hope Goldberg jackhammers him and ruins his career." "Kurt Angle was never in the olympics, those medals are fakes." ......so much more, and thats all from the same two friends of mine. Fuckin idiots, I just smile and nod when they want to talk about wrestling now.
Guest The Decadent Slacker Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 Now, most of my ex friends (long story) are marks. The stories i could tell. I just talked an old friend about wrestling (he says he works the indies, but the guy is 5'7, 280-300 lbs, 16 fucking years old & brags about "Really hitting the young guys"). Here are the highlights: Dan (his name): Nash is cool. Me (me): Dude, Nash sucks. Didn't you see the Cell match? Dan: Yeah, it shoulda gone longer. Me:... Dan: What? Me: Dude, that match sucked. Dan (trying to fit in): Oh..yeah. That blew. (Later...) Me: You ever see TNA? Dan: No, i can't afford it. Well i can, since i make $1000 a week- Me: Wait wait wait-$1000? Dan: Yeah Me: a week? Dan: Yeah. Me: As an INDY wrestler?! Dan: Indy? Me (laughing my ass off while trying to type: INDEPENDANT Dan (trying to fit in):oH ok. We don't call it that here. Me: $1000 a week? I know you dude, you can't even count to 1000. Dan: Can too. Me: What'd they pay you with? Food stamps? Dan: Very funny. Dan: So does TMA show tatas? Me: It's TNA, & it did once. Dan: Oh, fuck it then. I'd rather watch Kane kill linda again. Me: Kill? Dan: DUDE! That was the sickest thing i ever saw! Her went THUD! Me (feeling my IQ drop): I gotta go. There's MUCH more stories about this guy & others, including the chick who fucked Chyna-she said it was Scott Hall in drag. I hate marks.
MillenniumMan831 Posted August 14, 2003 Report Posted August 14, 2003 I work with this dumbass lady who isn't even aware that RAW exists although she watches SmackDown all the time (No, NOT for the matches of course). Anywhoo, I would HATE it when she'd come running to me on Friday morning. Her: Hey! Did you see Smackdown? Me: Ummm . . . a little bit. Her: That guy . . . oh what's his name was on? Ummm, Billy the Kid. Me: Who? Her: Ya know that guy, he is a team with that kid with the cute mask on. Me: Rey Mysterio? Her: I think so. Hey! Did they fire The Edge? Me: You mean Edge? Her: Whatever. Me: No . . . uhhh I gotta go. Of course, this was just a small dramatization, but normally this goes on for 5 brutal minites a week. I know what you're thinking, big deal it's only 5 minutes? Well, it's 5 minutes too long.
KTID Posted August 14, 2003 Report Posted August 14, 2003 I absolutely *hate* those who think theres no wrestling outside WWE. And another thing, i am annoyed by people justifying what wrestlers are the best by how many titles they've held.
Lil' Bitch Posted August 14, 2003 Report Posted August 14, 2003 "Why are you guys cheering John Cena? He just insulted us!" EDIT: The same could be said for Chris Jericho
SpikeFayeJettEdBebop Posted August 14, 2003 Report Posted August 14, 2003 I am so happy I dont interact with dumbasses like that...........
Guest Askewniverse Posted August 14, 2003 Report Posted August 14, 2003 (edited) "Why are you guys cheering John Cena? He just insulted us!" EDIT: The same could be said for Chris Jericho If you think that's funny, you should have seen the fan's face when my friend responded: Friend: "We really don't give a shit that he insulted us. He's right, Hershey fans are idiots, and the chocolate does taste like wax. Besides that, we don't even live in Hershey. This is just the closest arena to where we live."
