Well… I just got home a little while ago, and it was great! It is definitely one of the best live shows I have ever seen. There were tons of good matches, and the crowd was really into everything. There was even a 4 way women’s title match… which made all the men very very happy The best part of the whole show was after they went off the air. Stone Cold and Angle were still in the ring after a ruckus ensued. Austin got a few beers as usual and made Angle come into the ring and drink one with him. Of course, Angle said he would have prefered milk… what a pussy. Austin gave him 2 choices… drink the beer or get a stunner, he chose the beer… but only if Austin promised to drive him home afterwards. The whole crowd was rolling at this point. So they clink cans and drink up… and immediately afterwards Austin delivers the ever-present stunner… the crowd goes wild… and the show ends.
What a fun night. I must say that it was well worth the price of admission, and then some. For all the naysayers… screw you… you wouldn’t know good entertainment if it walked up to you on the street and bit you in the ass.
Honestly people, what exactly do you get out of these events?
Are you the same people that would attend a Jerry Springer show?
If so, why? I’m dying for an explaination.
It’s a very intricate performance, that’s why. It’s fascinating to watch. If you don’t know what’s going on, that’s because you don’t know about the past two years of backstory. It’s not the kind of entertainment medium that one can get into right off the bat.
In addition, the ring work is very interesting. Even though those head butts aren’t real, there’re some very amazing feats done in the ring that can’t possible be faked (you try falling off the top of a twenty-foot steel cage and not getting hurt :D).
And, finally, when watching Smackdown or RAW, we’re guaran-damn-teed lots of T&A (no pun intended).
CnoteChris,
Let me explain it this way, I can watch wrestling, cheer my favorites, boo and scream insults at the guys I don’t like. Aand get all my agressions out without hurting anyone . And I can do this all free in my own home if I wish. Of course the live shows are much much better.
A wrestling thread went 26 posts before I participated :o
Wrestling is like anal sex. you either love it or you hate it.
People go to cheer on their favourite wrestler. Why do people go to a pantomime? They already know the story, and have probably seen the actors a hundred times before, but they go to enjoy themselves and watch a good show. Thats all wrestling is. OK, the acting is terrible, but the technical skill that is needed to perform some of the moves is very high, not to mention the bravery (or, sometimes, stupidity) that the wrestlers posess to do some of things they do. For example, I would pay money time and time again to watch one of the wrestler’s, BuhBuh Ray Dudley, be knocked off a 20ft ladder, to the outside of the ring and through 2 tables stacked on top of each other. Why? because there is no way in hell that I would be able to do that myself.
I could go on, but I’d only end up surprizing you with how much I know.
Wrestling is a Soap Opera. Nothing more, nothing less.
The Rock can be funny, but I would have to say that one of my favourites (apart from Mick Foley) would have to be William Regal. He is the typical conniving, underhanded, but ever so pleasant English Gent that you would expect to see as a villian in a 1960’s Michael Caine film.
Plus, I have a serious obsession with Amy Dumas ( Lita ) that it isn’t funny anymore…
Nah, it’s a cartoon, man, it’s a cartoon.
How else do you explain Buh-Buh Ray’s reaction when he gets hit with a chair? Or Kurt Angle’s “It’s true, it’s true…” Or Chris Jericho’s… well, anything involving Chris Jericho…
And am I the only one who thinks the 'Taker needs to start doing some sit-ups?
Taker needs to do more than a few situps, but I think his biggest problem is his new gimmick. As far as I’m concerned, his dead guy act was much more entertaining. He’s not nearly as menacaing as a biker.
aw, c’mon.
how many times can you do the dead guy gimmick? The change has done him good. as for the sit ups, he’s been injured on and off for the last 4 months… and hasn’t been able to train properly. Once he gets his ring sharpness back,
you will see a greatly improved 'Taker.
Something about Buh Buh Ray Dudley strikes me as… well… WRONG. It might be the fact that it’s spelled Buh Buh (BUBBA, folks). It might be the oughta-be-patented CrazyEye Thing. It might be both or neither, or something I haven’t even been able to consciously grasp. But something there is wrong.
And Jeff Hardy looks like one of the guys in the Red Hot Chili Peppers, only with long hair in which Skittles have melted.
So far as 'Taker goes; dude, you can play American Badass as much as you want, you’re just some old fat guy on a bike. They’re not even BADASS bikes, half the time. It’s like he purposely goes out and finds the Harley that is the least badass possible… which is pretty tough when it’s Harleys you’re dealing with. I dunno, man. The only reason I like seeing him come out is because I LOVE Metallica’s “Sad But True.”
For the record, I HATE the Jerry Springer show.
Addendum to my mention of Jeff Hardy. Many, many girls swoon when the Hardy Boyz come out. Most are swooning for Jeff. Personally, I don’t swoon. But I like to gaze, and my gaze is made happy when it falls upon Matt Hardy. My friend Carlee’s comment on Matt, however, is that he looks like a chipmunk. Only, not your NORMAL chipmunk. A chipmunk that will sit there looking cute for a second, and then go KAMIKAZE ON YOUR BUTT. “I’m so purrrrrty! And then I BITECHA!!! gwarrr”
This is the kinda stuff we discuss whilst watching wrestling in my living room on school nights.
