[quote name='KaneRobot']LMFAO at the guy with the :roll: sign in the crowd when Big Show was in the ring.[/QUOTE]

That was a goon from SomethingAwful :)

Here's a list of signs they brought:
-CM F'N PUNK
-Gregory Helms is my Friend on MySpace
-Now is a Good Time for a Restroom Break
-Let Punk Plunge
-If Sabu Wins we Riot
-I'd Rather be at Thunder
-Damn Good Wrestler in Need of Job
-Punk's Gonna Kill You
-I Have a Little Bastard, Too!
-:roll:

I just tuned in. Can anybody sum up what I missed?
 
I've been too busy reading these awful (in hilarious awful) lucha zines called "From Parts Unknown" tonight to take in ECW fully.


Rene Dupree? The fact that the security guards for Paul are clearly The Bashams (they caught an angle of one who was clearly Danny Basham - no motherfucker on earth has the chubby wittle baby cheeks he has, and if it ain't them, it's Derrick Neikirk and Somebody O'Reilly, neither of which look like that), Mike Knox who can't throw a punch to save his life, Al Snow neutered of his sidekick head, and various and sundry, sounds like a dreadful show.

I must admit, in full disclosure, that Ariel is the one woman who makes me stop and stare. It's all the other cheesecake on the show who can go jump in the fucking river.

Ariel reminds me of Daffney from WCW.

Why WWE never put her on their programming is beyond me.

Gah! That reminds me, I bought tix for Bound for Glory and got really good seats. I'll be taking sign ideas from now until the event. Also, if any CAG in the Michigan area wants to go let me know, I might have an extra ticket if this guy flakes out on me.

Here's some (not all) of the ideas I have so far. I rarely take stuff that only references wrestling:

"THANK YOU FOR BEING A FRIEND"
"IF YOU LIKE PINA COLADAS, YOU'LL LOVE THIS MATCH"
"LET ME BE. MASTER IN WOODS"
"SUICIDAL WWE STOCKHOLDER" (with arrow)
"I THINK STEINER MIGHT USE CREATINE"
"KATIE VICK IS DEAD SEXY"
"JERRY LYNN = LITA WITHOUT MAKEUP"

For any female dime-a-dozen bimbo appearances:
"BETTER THROW UP AGAIN, FATTY"

Samoa Joe appearances:
"SAMOA JOE = POSSIBLY SAMOAN"
"YOU ROCK, UMAGA"



So help me and add to the cause.
 
[quote name='KaneRobot']
"THANK YOU FOR BEING A FRIEND"
[/QUOTE]

That's the only one you need. :rofl:

I like the "Throw up again, fatty" (makes me think of the Morrissey song "You're the One for Me, Fattie") - problem is, your signs have too many words. "Thank you for being a friend" is more of a cultural phrase, and thus (I s'pose) more easily read.

On the other hand, for the women, a "YOU'RE TOO FAT" sign might suffice. I'm not downplaying wrestling fans as idiots (though I'm not denying it, either), but given camera time given to signs, keep it simple, or expect to not be read by people watching a camera panning the crowd read your sign.

If you could get enough people to play along, a giant UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUMAGA sign in the vein of the WOOOOOOOOOOOO sign during the Samoa Joe match would be awesome.

I was talking about the same thing with my friend earlier, yet Daffney is far freakier... and annoying.

We had an even weirder comparison for Cena, and who he looks just like on steroids. Three horse biscuits to whoever guesses correctly!

Agreed. She was actually entertaining. Wasn't she under one of the dreaded "developmental" contracts that never went anywhere?

That particular picture annoys me because she looks like freakin' Gwen Stefani there, though...and Gwen Stefani is an annoying skank.
 
KaneRobot, I have one that will piss off the James Gang as well as make you look like an ass-hole WWE fan (which I did when I went - it was fun,by the way):

TRIPLE H
RULES!

Or another favorite that would be pretty funny, IMO:

CENA > SAMOA JOE

Yeah, he looked like he belonged on a runway modeling fragrance or something.

That's a good guess.



Guys I think I have Daffney's entrance vid somewhere. If I can find it, I'll upload it.
 
:lol: I'm capable of working Google, but thanks for supporting me in these tough times myke.

[quote name='2Fast']I've always wondered if it's weird that I'd readily bone Victoria. I mean, would you?[/quote]Victoria is one of the few divas that looks 'real', so sure.
 
[quote name='Genocidal']There's a small nip slip on Maria.[/quote]

The pic is so small I can't make out anything.

Anyway, here is the Daffney entrance vid. Only 15 secs, but pretty rare I guess. I don't really know if this is official or not since I don't remember her music but at least it is something.

[quote name='2Fast']Was Daffney WCW's answer to Lita? Sadly, I stopped watching WCW completely once it started to go downhill.[/quote]

No. Daffney had a totally different personality. She pretty much played an insane screaming woman. Think Melina's screams, Victoria's crazy gimmick, and mix that with with Ariel's look and you have Daffney.

Lita started off as a mimic in that she would mimic Essa Rios in the ring (moonsaults, huracanranas, swinging headscissors...

Daffney didn't do anything in the ring until well after her debut IIRC.
 
Oh god, Essa Rios, there's a name I haven't heard in a loooong time. I almost forgot she use to come out with him, I had it in my mind that she was always with they Hardyz for whatever reason.

Was Daffney post-West Texas Rednecks? Because I think that's about the time I stopped watching WCW.

[quote name='2Fast']Why is HBK always overlooked when it comes time to make a topic? I remember Scorch saying something about doing it out of respect for Saucy, so I guess my real question is: why did Saucy dislike HBK so much?[/QUOTE]

[quote name='Scorch']The whole "40 year old man coming out to 'sexy boy'" theme, I think.[/QUOTE]

[quote name='2Fast']....that's it? That's the reason why? Good grief.[/QUOTE]

[quote name='Zenithian Legend']
I'm guessing because of how much he liked Bret Hart[/QUOTE]

[quote name='2Fast']That I can understand. I guess I'm one of the ones that really likes both of them.[/QUOTE]

While I have been a lifelong Bret Hart fan, that isn't the only reason why I don't like Shawn Michaels.

First, let it be known that I have a lot of respect for Shawn Michaels the performer. Even at over 40, he puts on great wrestling matches, and when he doesn't use that sickening goody-two-shoes bullshit gimmick, he's very interesting to listen to. He made a great heel. I even loved his stuff with DX.

However, I don't like the man who wears the wrestling boots. I'm really happy that Shawn found Jesus and is a happy man. I also agree that getting the forgiveness of the Lord is the most important thing for a religious man to do.

Shawn said that he doesn't do "risque" gimmicks and promos anymore because "just because the Lord forgave your sins doesn't give you a free pass to do it again."

However, just because you have been forgiven by the Lord doesn't mean that you shouldn't seek out those you have wronged and ask their forgiveness. That brings us to Bret Hart. Shawn has never really apologized for what he did that night. In fact, he says he would do it again. I would think that he would be decent enough to apologize and even if he means it, keep the "I'd do it again" to himself.

Shawn seems to think that just because he's found Jesus that he doesn't have to make up for all the mistakes he made. All the womanizing, backstabbing, cheating, and negative behavior doesn't exist anymore, it seems. And even as a "changed" man, that doesn't stop you from hearing that Shawn is still an uptight ass behind the scenes.

It's good that Shawn is happy now and everything, but it's sad that I've seen the man that he really was and unfortunately, to a degree, still is. That's the downside of knowing what goes on behind the scenes in professional wrestling nowadays.

The upside is that you know that these men and women have families, that they are working through major injuries that would make any regular person shrivel up and cry for painkillers, that they have to sacrifice relationships and their own well-being and happiness to entertain the fans. You realize that when they have an off-night, most of the time it isn't because they care, but it is because they are human beings like us. They can't be perfect 24/7. Also, sometimes you'll learn that someone who comes off as a giant asshole in the ring is one of the nicest people you will ever meet in real life.

However, the downside of knowing the truth is that you see that your heroes are more like villains in real life. You hear about wrestlers sexually harrassing the female workers. You hear about wrestlers who walk out on or blow matches because they don't like the finish or the paycheck or the other wrestler. You hear about wrestlers abusing their families... abusing drugs... abusing their bodies. You hear about wrestlers who make the little kids cry and tell them to go to hell when all the little kid wanted was to say hi and that he loves to watch the guy wrestle. Backstabbing, cheating, lying, abuse... sometimes it makes you wish that you never knew anything about what goes on in the lives of these people.

I know that if I didn't know about the human being that Shawn Michaels is and was, I might be cheering for him like many of you.

Nah, fuck him. He still can't touch The Hitman. Heh heh.

If you want to, make a topic about Shawn. He's been an incredible in-ring performer, and that's what these topics celebrate. And besides, I won't be around to see it anyway.
 
Wake the neighbors and pour some coffee in the kids!

JACK IS BACK!!!!!:applause: :applause: :applause:

(and just in time for the thread to be named in Shawn Michaels' honor.;))
 
[quote name='neocisco']Wake the neighbors and pour some coffee in the kids![/QUOTE]

Never heard that phrase in my life, but, g'dammit, I'll be sure to overuse it as much as possible. Outstanding!

Good to see ya back, Jack. Stop by more frequently, sweetits.

I've always thought that she was one of the better looking divas, so yes.
 
[quote name='2Fast']I've always wondered if it's weird that I'd readily bone Victoria. I mean, would you?[/QUOTE]

It's the dark-haired ones....Victoria is very attractive and all, but I respect the fact that she not only became a capable wrestler, but stuck through the WWF developmentals after being sent down to OVW (after being a "Ho" for the Godfather) because Vince reportedly didn't like her look because she had a "tank-ass."

Speaking of tank-asses, doesn't it seem like Lita's put on a few pounds in the past couple of months? She needs to rediscover bulimia.

Whatever you are dealing with, I hope it works out for the best.

That was a hell of a swerve. Welcome back, although it sounds like it's only temporary.
 
Interesting article - clothed in storylines, so it's hard to tell if they're really calling him a bitch.

I still predict Orton/Steamboat.
 
Not knowing Hogan as a person, I'm left wondering if that will motivate him to prove them wrong, or piss him off to the point that he won't want to work without Vince throwing bigger buckets of cash at him.
 
It was weird to see an entire ECW show go by and not one match was under "Extreme Rules".

And what is with them pushing the fact that some members are "original ECW veterans" or some bullshit? Is this some kind of big angle they are going to do, old blood vs new blood?

RVD botched his move but I still marked out to see him come back. Next week they'll have a triple threat for #1 contender and it'll probably be under EXTREME RULES.

Seeing Sabu work a normal match makes me wish he wasn't stuck on ECW, but rather moved to Raw... he worked a damn good match without any tables or chairs.

Until this morning, I completely forgot about the best thing to come from this show: The announcement that the Diva Search finals were both next week, and on their own hour long train wreck. It might be worth checking out, if only because I know how bad it's going to be.

Bah.

Without wardrobe malfunctions the entertainment value is minimal. I can see even better looking women prancing around on Univision and even with the language barrier it is still more entertaining.
