WWE/WF Wrestling- Things you wouldn't expect a commentator to say...

Hi Guys,

I am sat watching the WWE Network. In particular 2005 New Year's Revolution, one of the top 10 paperview I have seen so far.

In this match Muhammod Hassan and Jerry 'The King' Lawler. and i Said 'My god, Hassan is tossing The king like bread!'

I am glad I am not a commentator, I would be rubbish. It got me thinking about Mock the week, and so the thread was born.

I also thought we could use it to post, favourite sayings/walk on music/moments... anything Sports Entertainment related!

'Salad' would have been funnier on so many levels.

Hence why I would be a rubbish commentator. I am wittier in print.

Plus The King's singlet freaked me out!

Ooooh Noted. I will watch it at the weekend. WWE network you have all paperviews since the year dot. I am working my way through.

As it is winter...the time to hibernate.

I just want to preface this by saying I really enjoy your posts...as an individual and as Nonspecific's wife. You're great people.

But, please, don't try to read too much into wrasslin' . It shoots for the lowest common denominator in their story lines and characterizations to put asses in seats in auditoriums when the monster truck rally or gun and boat show aren't in town...

That said. I did watch quite a bit growing up. And even held Monday Night Raw parties in my apartment. Mankind vs. Undertaker Hell in a Cell...watched it live.

I guess my message is don't read anything into it. It is sports entertainment.

Nothing being read into it here other than great entertainment!

The best thing about great entertinment is thats what it is.

If your going to watch a soap opera the choose the one with the silliest storylines and chair shots to the head

The internet destroyed professional wrestling. The mystique was lost and is gone forever.

I have to disagree somewhat with this, the mysique was always in question and I kind of like to se it as it is.

Is it fake? yes it's as fake as ironman or back to the future but I personally still love it.

To anyone else that remembers the "attitude era"

Yeah...they kinda peaked with that. That is why I was so into it and threw parties for the big events...it was so different then.

one of the best time in wresting history lot of good rivalries, Lita got me into to skanky girls with tattoos, lol(like i needed any help with that)



and till this day i do the hardy boy pose whenever it is warranted(which is fewer and farther inbetween as a i get older)

a reply to: the owlbear

I take purely as entertainment. I don't do any soaps, bar this and The Archers, bit of a juxtaposition.

But if you want drama and story lines why not follow those with gorgeous people in tight clothes?

I have a few crushes including the women, and also nicknames for a few wrestlers.

1) Brock Lesner- Les Brockner (due to a memory mishap, but it has now stuck)
2)Seth Rollins - Scrappy Doo (as he was the smallest and wiliest member of The Shield)
3) Dean Ambrose - Rapey Dave (cos he looks like he should be from a trailer park, and to be avoided by young women)
4) Alberto Del Rio- Steve (Cos he looks like my friend Steve, and he works long hours, as a chef, but we have created a Superman/ Clark Kent story line for him, were he isn't a chef, he is actually a wrestler, in my head anyway)

Awww!

You should just do it anyway, anywhere! You could perk up someone's day or your own.

Age is no excuse to do something that you love doing... or hold a halloween party this weekend, and dress up like him, then you can get all your posing done in one day, with a valid excuse!
