I admit I was tempted too but it really isn't worth it. It's pro wrestling. Enjoy it, don't take it too seriously and if you don't enjoy it do something else with your time. It's a big old world out there, you know?
Yeah, FUCK THEM. Seriously. I don't think people who say shit like that are even wrestling fans. Go watch an action flick if you want zany stunts.
Yeah, this place is a lot of fun - I'm sure there's some witty, insightful posters on the Wrestlecrap boards, but it's not worth wading through the crap to find them. Before my hiatus from the 'net I posted on a bunch of message boards, now I only post on this board and a baseball site (and even that site's dwindling into nothing) - I just can't be bothered any more. People talk real tough when they're shielded behind their user handles, it's such bullshit: I guess in wrestling parlance it would be "marks for themselves". It feels like you're in a damn playground sometimes.

LOL! Chill out guys. Before I joined this board I had an account at wrestleview, my name was Mae Young's Hand. Once I found this site and chatted with you guys a couple of times I just ditched that place and this is the only board I post on now. I've only ever read the wrestlecrap board from the outside. The wrestleview forums were quite annoying though, it just seemed as though most of the posters had copious amounts of sand in their vagina's. What I like about this place is that there is only a handful of us (8 at the moment). Everyone has a chance to express their views and we'll all listen instead of everyone clambering over each other for attention. It's a really good atmosphere here too and I feel like I know you guys quite well so I enjoy conversing with you all.

I feel the same way. I almost feel like I'm hanging out with buddies that I never met in person on this board. Other boards people are just going out of their ways to make assinine, idiotic comments

I wonder what happened to the likes of Bob Marley and Wantootree.

Bob Marley disappeard a very long time ago but Wantoo just disappeared out of no where. I hope he's not dead. Maybe he was offended by the racist comments lol. The way I see it is if all comedians that aren't white can bash white people and get a laugh out of white people, they need to calm the fuck down when I make a nig or spic comment. I do it all out of fun. It just so happens that some stereotypes are almost true if not a fact

I still post there but at least 90% of that is in off topic.
I was in the chat for Summerslam just for kicks and everyone was like "OMG TEH WORST HIAC EVAH!!" just because there wasn't a huge spot and the ending sucked. Let's not forget Taker snapped and destroyed Edge with all his own moves. But noooo...Edge has to risk his health and career for an unnecessary spot.
I really can't stand the wrestling "fans" on there. Between the pregnant doging and the horrible fantasy booking that everyone seems to think is awesome.
If not for off topic i'd leave.

I have to check the WWE section once a day just to see what the retards think are awesome. I consider it my feel good medicine of the day.

Some people think they are so cool because they know when they see a good wrestling match. So they take that attitude to another level because they have no friends and no life so we deserve to feel better about ourselves because of losers like some of them

The thing is though, how often do WWE, TNA or ROH put on bad matches. I mean really bad ones? Percentage wise not a whole lot. They don't get that not every match needs to be a five star match. I think that takes away from the allure of actually every now and then getting them. Also, giving matches star ratings makes you an asshole. Thats why I enjoy reading Larry Csonka's columns at 411mania. Its Larry's enjoyment index. Thats how it should be, how much you enjoy it. And we don't even have to all agree.

It goes back to the old saying Naitch. "A man can build a thousand bridges but if he sucks one cock he's a cocksucker". In other words the wrestlers are rarely known for the bridges they've built along the way. They are only remembered for the one cock they suck. Hulk Hogan is a perfect example. We're all guilty with that.
As for the 5 star matches, Jericho vs HBK at the Great American Bash wasn't exactly a five star match but the the match told an awesome story. The match didn't call for five stars. The story behind it was HBK's eye and Jericho wanting to put Shawn on the shelf and both guys did an awesome job telling that story through their ring work. Some people are just super ignorant because they think they know what they deserve

I only lurk on wrestlecrap for the gifs and the photoshop threads are generally good for a laugh. Although whenever someone does a good photoshop pic of something and people reply with "you win a million internets" I die a little inside.

I can't. Compared to the early 90s WWE is friggin awesome every week for in ring action.

I can't. Compared to the early 90s WWE is friggin awesome every week for in ring action. You are right. Even the ladies put on decent matches these days. My only annoyance is that some of the matches are really short -and I mean, *really* short, like 1-and-a-half minutes. As for "5-star" matches... well, I don't know. Wrestling should be about suspending disbelief when presenting a fight, not who can do the most flippy-floppy shit (which I suspect is what a lot of these critics are looking for). Big Show is a good example. There's no reason for that guy to do a hurracanrana when he can crush you with a splash. Last time I checked, anyone of any size or weight are elligible to compete. It's unrealistic to expect every single minute of every single show to be amazing. It's the same for any TV show. You take the rough with the smooth. For example, this week's Smackdown had some bad stuff - Victoria jobbing again *sniff* and any time Michelle McCool was on screen not getting her ass kicked - but had two really great matches - MVP vs Jeff, Shelton vs HHH. So I'm happy. And if every match was a fifteen minute technical masterpiece, it would get boring and I be yearning for some hoss to go mowing through these dipshits in three minute matches.

Oh, and as for the Scramble
Anyone sensing a clusterfuck for the Smackdown title? I was thinking during the show that there are a lot of wildcards in that match: Khali, Big Show, Zeke - and if the Undertaker thing is true then Vickie & la Familia and Edge could be messing everything up too.

I think if the Undertaker thing is true then he is taking the belt. I don't think Edge will be back for a little while, maybe a month or two. The way the HIAC match ended it seemed a bit too dramatic to only put him out for a few weeks.
