Epic Reine 0 Report post Posted March 17, 2005 What are some of the worst conversations you've heard involving wrestling? I have two stories. First one, this happened a few months ago, I was sitting in my math class in University and these two guys started talking about GOLDUST of all people and they kept mocking him doing the whole deep breath and saying "GOOOOOOOLDUST". It made me laugh my ass off, of al the wrestler you'd expect people to talk about, they chose Goldust. The actual conversation about him was even better. Guy 1: "Yo, remember when Goldust fought Razor Ramon and he was wearing lingerie?" Guy 2: "Nah, but I remember when Goldust fought Roddy Piper and he had a thong on!" The second one was a few years ago, in high school, these two girls were having a debate on who was hotter, Brock Lesnar or Randy Orton. One of the girls won with her Brock arguement saying Brock had a nice ass while the other girl defended Randy by saying he had nice abs. Go figure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DrVenkman PhD 0 Report post Posted March 17, 2005 I was on the Metro going back to the hotel after July's Raw in D.C. and a group of people were wondering if Eugene was really retarded or if it was an act. They seemed to feel that since they hired Zach Gowen with one leg, they would let a mentally handicapped guy wrestle. Then they said Zach was awesome. Not really AWFUL or anything since some people are still marks, but I found it dumb. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Human Fly 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2005 One night in a Perkins (kind of like a Denny's) at around 2 in the morning some drunk guy started talking about "that goofy mother fucker" Hacksaw Jim Duggan. He then did a couple of Hoooooooos. After that he then said "I'll let a bitch hit me in the face twice but after the third time I will whoop her ass".

Some Guy 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2005 I've been in several with one of my more drunken, beligerent, and ignorant (about wrestling) friends. One such gem consisted of him insisting that Bret Hart used the same music in WCWthat he did in WWF. I tried several times to explain that he used similar music but WWF owned the original and as such WCW could not use it. He got pissed after a while, when he realized I was right. He was also conviced that Warrior died and they replaced him. No amount of explanation about hair dye, aging, and changes in face paint would convince him he was full of shit. I think Taker dies according to him as well. he once tried to convince me that Warrior was Kery Von Erich and I just said, "Whatever you say dude." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanadianChick 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2005 Surprisingly, it actually wasn't with a stupid mark or anything. My brother's friend said he hated RVD for being too spotty, but loved the X-Division for 'having cool moves'. Ah, dude? X-Division is the most spotastic thing ever. Well, a year and a half ago it was. I honestly haven't watched it lately. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jericholic82 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2005 Last Year when I went to Raw in Anaheim (kane-litas wedding). Two guys behind me kept talking about how mad they still were that jericho was the first undisputed champ, saying they would have accepted austin, rock, or even angle but not him. Also before the show outside, someone wondered aloud "who was little johnny?" (obivously meaning heidenreichs mystery of little johnny during his raw run in late 03. ) Of course back in high school when several female students debated who was the hottest male wrestler had to be a lowpoint. And a classmate once couldnt understand why I had both A rock and austin tshirt (this was late 98 when rock was a heel). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Her mom and stepdad were like ethnic Mexicans and her stepdad was worth some money and had the expensive cowboy hat and shit. Well, we sit down and then this weird liberal family comes in with a bum they had apparently picked up off the street to feed at Denny's. The bum was a Mexican, too. He orders some shit and then asks for a jalapeño. They bring him one and he turns and says to my ex's stepdad in a really strong Eddie Guerrero-type accent, "Heeeeeey, señor, wanna jalapeño??????" while holding this long, dripping pepper up in the air. The stepdad just says "NO!" and starts laughing his ass off. We start laughing, too, and the liberal family looks on in bewilderment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"Chris Jericho did a gay gimmick and I didn't like it." (This person was thinking of Lenny Lane. They tell me no, it was Jericho) "Come on, guys, everyone knows that Triple H really isn't married to Stephanie! He is married to Chyna!" (This was in 2000) "Yeah, when they pull their shorts up, they're pulling out blood capsules." (Some dork in 5th grade in 1987) "ECW is different because they are really wrestling...they don't plan the winners and stuff." "The Undertaker really is a Devil-worshiper."

Guest The Iron Yuppie Report post Posted March 18, 2005 On a bus a couple of months ago, I overheard some girls discussing Jeff Hardy - how he had died a few years earlier (2002) and that was why he wasn't on WWE programming anymore. One of them disagreed with this "fact", saying instead that he had died mid last year, and that Matt Hardy had taken time away from WWE since then, in mourning over the death of his brother.

CanadianGuitarist 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2005 "The Undertaker really is a Devil-worshiper." My late cousin had a buddy who knew the Undertaker pretty well. Before the Taker met Sara, he was kinda dating a girl who my cousin's buddy knew. She didn't care for the Taker however, and he promptly left some whiny messages on her machine. "Linda....I miss youuuuuuu, why haven't you returned my calls?" What is it with Denny's and winos? The Grand Slam can't be beat. Off topic, I was drunk there a few weeks ago. Does it count as flirting if I try to get the waitress to do If your name was AmericanGuitarist, you would have opened a can of whoopass. I am American, and I would have First of all, they're buddies of mine, it was in fun. Second, I'm a pacifist in some sense. Violence is necessary in hockey, and the death penalty should sometimes be an option. I personally will never fight someone, that's just the way I feel. Third, a violent American? Well, I never! Fourth, I believe Canada kicked your ass last time. He started it before I get flamed, thank you very much. that goofy mother fucker" Hacksaw Jim Duggan. He then did a couple of Hoooooooos. I work with a guy named Chris who's an old school mark too. We work in electronics of a retail store, and a lot of times one of us will do cash and the other will bag. We call this, naturally, tag teaming. It got to the point where instead of saying, "hey, can you give me a hand" we'd scream random tag team names at one another, more kudos for more obscure tag teams. Tekno Team 2000 and The Truth Comission currently lead the way. A special credit was given to Chris, when a third guy, Dan, was working with us and Chris called him Oscar when he tagged me in. (Oscar was the manager of old school Men on a Mission) As for the Duggan quote, Chris didn't care for the way I bagged one time, so he started calling me Tough Guy and HOOOOOOOO'd. This continued for about an hour, and during a bag/cash, Chris goes, YOU'RE NOT SO TOUGH!. An old guy in line proceeds to also scream "Yeah, you helped me find my cd, but you're really not that tough. HOOOOOOO!" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nighthawk 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2005 I knew a kid said Taker and Kane were really brothers. I said they weren't, but he said he knew they were because his uncle was friends with the Taker and once time he went over to his house and Kane was there and they rode four wheelers. Kane supposedly wore his mask the whole time. This is funnier cause this kid's uncle was in the high 400 pound range, and there's no way he'd be riding a damn four wheeler. I used to have wild wrestling conversations in this spanish class in high school. People would call X-Pac "Ten Pac" and say that Kurrgan's finisher was the sharpshooter, and that Sable was Sabu's sister. Some people didn't know who he was, so I drew a picture of Sabu on the chalkboard. I said my favorite wrestler was Glacier, and would argue at length about whether Yokozuna ever did a 450, which usually denigrated to putting each other in the texas cloverleaf when the teacher stepped outside. Those were good times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nighthawk 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2005 I tell you, being the worst kind of mark is really fun. I'm too old for it now anyway, but I do get wistful for my wrestling innocence. More stuff from that period: Went over to a friend's house, they had had a filing cabinet delivered and the box was sitting in the yard, it's a big box, like 6 feet tall. With no preamble, I give the box a spear and jackhammer. Got into a HUGE argument with this guy on the wrestling team at school about amateur vs pro wrestling. Eventually settled by stepping outside for a practical styles clash, where I made him cry in the Steiner Recliner. It was commonly believed that ECW was 100% real and people had died there. One guy honestly claimed to not know that Mankind, Dude Love and Cactus Jack were the same person. Kane was a Mortis rip off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
strummer 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2005 -My friend saying "I stopped watching WCW when Rey Misterio pinned Kevin Nash. Like that would ever happen in real life." Interestingly enough, when that happened, Vince McMahon basically said the same thing. Vince said something along the lines of "No one would ever buy that, I would never do anything like that" According to the sheets, when Vince saw this he knew WCW was going under. Seriously.
