Knobbs will be limping around Hogans house again...

One of the worst tag teams ever. Why the fuck did they even get a try out? :shake:
|
Because it was Florida where they live, they were probably doing it as a favor not with the idea of signing them and then they went and did that....
|
Also there will never be a wrestling show in Georgia ever again...
Read the funniest thing ever, the proposed wrestling rules from the Georgia Athletic and Entertainment Commission. It was the weirdest thing you ever saw, this strange mix of work and shoot, and it made for fabulous reading. The money issues are going to really hurt the indies in the area. Promoters must get licensed; provide a $10,000 security bond; notify the commission of the time, date and location of an event at least ten days in advance; pay the 5% of gross revenue within ten days of the conclusion of the event; and have a physician at ringside, an ambulance and 2 EMTs on hand. As far as rules, "Wrestlers MAY NOT deliberately cut themselves and all wrestlers must be over (18) years of age"; "No one under the age of 18 is allowed in any area of the venue other than their seat except when accompanied by a guardian"; they must pay $100 for a commission representative to be present (!!!); they have to announce changes to the advertised card before the show starts and offer refunds; wrestlers can not physically or verbally threaten any member of the audience. There were all sorts of rules about what guys can and cannot wear. Your gear must be clean. I'd have been kicked out Chikara Sunday. You may wear 2 pairs of trunks one over the other. No grease, lotion or foreign substances on the body. Female wrestlers must wear trunks and a top. "The inspector present at the event may disallow the use of inappropriate attire or disqualify a wrestling participant for the lack of appropriate attire." YOU MUST HAVE REAL GEAR. You also must have your fingernails trimmed close. There are lots of instructions about the barriers required. It's like God giving Noah the blueprints for the ark. And then we get to the fun stuff, a legitimate RULEBOOK OF WRESTLING. Matches have a maximum 60 minute time limit. A wrestling contest shall be determined by one fall or best of three falls. "A fall is scored by a wrestler when the wrestler’s opponent has both shoulders touching the mat for a count of three (3) seconds. The referee shall signal the wrestler scoring a fall by immediately slapping the mat." Someone clearly got confused when writing these rules. A two minute rest period is allowed between falls. Also, it's now a TEN COUNT in Georgia for breaking a hold, not five. That's extreme. You can't inhibit breathing by covering the nose and mouth at the same time. "Unsportsmanlike or physically dangerous conduct" -- not allowed. If you keep it up, you must be disqualified. No blading, but you may use blood capsules. Seriously. "If a wrestler refuses or is physically unable to continue a match, the match shall be ended and the decision awarded to the wrestler’s opponent." Ever wondered what a tag match is? Well, it's "a contest between two (2) teams each composed of two (2) or more wrestlers." Let's get more specific: "A tag team contest shall be conducted as follows: The contest shall begin with one (1) wrestler from each team inside the ring while the respective partners remain outside the ring on the apron; The wrestler(s) outside the ring may not enter the ring unless a fall is scored or his/her partner has tagged his/her hand; In order to be eligible to receive a tag, the wrestler’s partner shall be outside the ring on the apron in the proper corner with both feet on the ring apron and only receive the tag over the top ring rope; When the tag is made, the wrestler making the tag shall leave the ring as the partner enters the ring; Only two (2) wrestlers from opposing teams shall be permitted to be in the ring at any one (1) time; After the scoring of a fall a wrestler may relieve the partner; If a wrestler is unable to continue; the wrestler’s partner shall continue the contest alone; The referee may call time after an injury to permit the injured wrestler to be removed from the ring; and Release the rope provided in the team corner until officially tagged by the partner." I am not making any of this up. A wrestler may have a second accompany him to the ring, but if the second interferes he can be ejected. Refs must be properly attired within 30 minutes of bell time and must "enforce the regulations of the commission". That's from F4W |

Holy shit, Slick Johnson's back!

Is a ref bump really necessary in a table match?
Jesus, that was lame. |
Hall isn't here yet! Joe and Nash need a third member!
Maybe it's... HULK HOGAN?!?!? OH MY GOD HULK HOGAN HAS TURNED HIS BACK ON THE FANS! HE'S LEGDROPPED JOE AND NOW HALL AND NASH AND ANGLE ARE HUGGING ONE ANOTHER! Hogan: "STICK IT!" The HogAngle Coalition, or hAc, HAS BEEN BORN! |
Oh, awesome. The newly re-named <strike>stripper</strike> "knockout" is shaking her ass while Don West imitates Lawler and taunts us about his propensity to NEVER EVER ****ING SHUT UP.
**** 'em up ODB, **** 'em up! |
Penzer's voice just broke.
Kip James looks even more ridiculous than usual. |
Hahahahaha, the contents of the cases aren't revealed until iMPACT!. Once again, a case of Russo using PPV to build for TV shows. God knows the 20,000 people watching this shitfest are totally going to boost those ratings up to previously unheard of heights (say, 1.2)!
So you've got a match that has no reason to exist, with wrestlers who are basically acting indecisive and confused the whole time, and instead of some big payoff, it just sort of ends. Genius. I can't believe their buyrates are pathetic. |
On the bright side, here comes KONG.
|
MAKE HER HUMBLE
|
HELL YES KILL HIM KONG KILL HIM
Awesome (ho ho) ****ing match. Great story, nice action, Kong is amazing (ho ho), Gail is a wonderful plucky face, and Andrew Thomas has been murdered. DQ finish or not, it's all good. Now she's destroying the strippers. "Bitch, **** your steel chair!" And back to mauling Gail until security mobs her. That was glorious. |
I think Gail Kim is the only woman I'd consider marrying at this point.
|
Kong is the only woman I'd consider marrying at this point, and I wouldn't even have to be coerced.
Wait, wasn't Raven a heel like two weeks ago? |
I didn't even know raven had been on the air in the last two months, much less weeks.
I've tried watching Impact the last two weeks, but that show's just a clusterfuck. I didn't think it could be worse than it at a single hour. |
Basically, take everything bad about a one-hour iMPACT!. Make it even longer. Ta-da!
A one-hour iMPACT! was basically, "Ha ha, you so crazy." A two-hour iMPACT! is pretty much interminable. |

This is a worked shoot, brother!
|
Oh god ****ing damnit, Eric Young is the third man.
Jesus Christ. And it was a good promo, too. :sulk: How is Angle/AJ/Tomko vs. Joe/Nash/ERIC YOUNG for ~15 minutes anything more than a so-so iMPACT! main event? |
Well of course the Musclebuster put Tomko out! He just had back surgery!
|
"Thanks for coming, by the way." LMAO
I wish they'd gotten the, um, original Fake Razor/Diesel to come out, though. And yes, by that I mean they should have had Kane wander out looking confused when Big Daddy Cool's music hit. |
ROFL @ tadpole splash.
|
That was a really good Raw (Fake Fake Razor's amazing personality, Lionsault, APA!!!!!!!!, continued build/intertwining of two top feuds), and an atrocious crowd. I think the guy with the "Randy Orton sucks! HBK rule!" sign was the smartest, most lively person there.
I will never, eh-eh-eh-evvvvvvvvvvvvvvver, go to North Charleston. Agayn. |

I'm less interested in the shows tonight than the ratings.
That being said, iMPACT's spoilers are ****ing appalling. At least ECW just looks boring. |
So I'm just starting to watch wrestling again for the first time in a couple of years. Comcast rewarded me today with USA in HD. So, HD IS JERICHO!!!
|
Actually, not yet. WWE's not switching until next year, at the earliest.
|
Dayum. That kinda sucks I can watch reruns of House in HD but not WWE. Oh well.
|
Holy crap, iMPACT! was actually... not horrible?
I mean, it was stupid, but just regular stupid. Not TNA stupid. The ladder match FOR POSSESSION OF THE BELT and the "Bye Low-Ki" matches were really underwhelming thanks to commercial breaks and cuts, but the main event was pretty nice and we got plenty of decent Christian and Angle (and AJ) stuff. |
TNA iMPACT!: 1.1
ECW on Sci-Fi: 0.6 Holy ****ing shit, they kept their 1.1. I guess that pretty much confirms that TNA has an audience that will watch no matter what, though it doesn't really say much for their ability to draw in (much less keep) NEW viewers. Still, TNA has to consider that a win, even if ECW was on a different night with a pretty crappy looking main event/card. ECW as a show was good, but then, I didn't actually pay attention to Mizzark shitting up the ring. |
It also shows that the WWE 3rd brand doesn't draw well when it isn't promoted at all.
|
Well, yeah. The main thing I was curious about was whether the C-show on a different night with no effort placed into it whatsoever would be able to decimate the numbers for iMPACT, but shockingly enough, iMPACT! seemed to stay exactly the same.
On another subject, Smackdown was pretty fun. Batista's spear on Burke was hellacious and they made Burke look legit even as he was squashed by the world champion, then the MVP-Hayes segment was phenomenal. |
So,
I finally burned the 3 Disc set of the ladder match from my HD. I sat down and watched the 4-way ladder match from Armageddon last year. That ladder shot to Joey Mercury was repulsive. His face just exploded. That sumbitch is lucky he's still alive for his next overdose. |
It's unbelievable how much blood came out of his head in such a short period of time.

Okay. I'm going to start posting in this rasslin' thread. The Chiefs are a joke and I need another sport to like.
I don't know anything about rasslin', though, and I need somebody to root for. Who is good? When do they rassle next? FAX |
FAX is gonna try to get educated about wrestling...this should be interesting...
|
So, who's the best rassler, Mr. Mecca? I want to cheer for the best guy. But, it needs to be a character guy. I don't want to root for low character rasslin' guy.
FAX |
Anybody but Randy Orton...
how about Shawn Michaels he is cool or Ric Flair or Chris Jericho |

Alright, this is getting us nowhere.
Let's start here. Who is the current rasslin' champion? How often to they rassle? Who decides who gets to rassle who? When a rassler beats another rassler, does the rassler that got beat get to rassle the winning rassler again later? FAX |
Here's a vid of Shawn Michaels.....it gets more recent as it goes on..

WWE champion is Randy Orton. I don't watch TNA so I have no idea. They wrestle several times a week. For the WWE it is probably Vince McMahon and the writers that decide who wins and loses and probably Triple H has a huge influence in that as well. Yes. |
Mr. FAX, I've got the tag team for you. Jesse and Festvus. They're on ECW(10 pm ET Tuesdays Sci Fi Network) and Smackdown (8pm ET Fridays the CW).
|
WWE airs shows on Monday, Tuesday and Fridays.......TNA runs on Thursday....
Raw, Smackdown and ECW are all WWE shows. |
Quote:
I like John Morrison....my wrestling taste is far from people like Jesse and Festus. |
Jeese and Festvus are corny wrestling fun.
Johnny Nitro is the shaman of steriods. LOL. |
I like the name Festvus. Does he rassle only in tag teams? Or does he ever rassle solo? Why are there two rasslin companies? Is one rasslin' company better than the other? Do they ever compete against each other like a rasslin' super bowl?
FAX |
I actually like Orton.

Mr. FAX, watch this clip of Randy Orton pwning John Cena's dad. <object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/4spllcZctCY&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/4spllcZctCY&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object> |
I like to picture that as Carl Peterson taking the kick.

Jeff is great wrestler though and maybe he has cleaned up his act? |

Jeff supposedly cleaned up his act but when he was gone for the month of August it was due to violating the wellness policy..I'm not sure what he tested positive for however. |
Quote:
What about Hornswaggle? With a name like Hornswaggle, he's bound to be good. FAX |
Mr. FAX...he's a lady killer, though:

FAX, a good "badguy" you might like is Santino Marella on RAW(9pm ET Monday). Good on the mic but is a mid-card wrestling talent.
In fact you should tune in this Monday because it's the 15th anniversary of RAW. Maybe The Rock will cut a promo? |

What is RAW? Is Santino Marella a Mexican or Italian (I'm not cheering for any Italian rasslers)? Will Hornswaggle be on RAW?
