Boners.
ReplyDeletePrimarily white suit Angle is an underrated look.
ReplyDeleteI always partial to 2006 black suit Angle
ReplyDeleteLOL....Austin just straight up steps on Rock's balls
ReplyDeleteIt's kinda tough hearing slightly mush-mouthed JR but you have to give props for working through it.
ReplyDeleteStiffies
ReplyDeleteBret and Flair pull off one of the least obvious and most obvious blade jobs in mania history within about 45 minutes of each other.
ReplyDeleteBret's "hardway's" are a thing of beauty
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of WM 2000, can't believe they didn't bring in the Radicalz as WCW invaders and did their version of the nWo.
ReplyDeleteSee, now Lawler's back to his 94-98 form, so it was clearly the fault of Michael Cole the Goatee Wearing Bitch
ReplyDeleteMe too but white doesn't get enough love.
ReplyDeleteI rewound it back twice and I really think I know how to break down a wrestling match and I honestly couldn't tell when he did it, so for one Bret worked fast as hell and he was super discreet. That's why he's the best.
ReplyDeleteAlways felt Lawler's commentating was overrated, even in his prime during the attitude era.
ReplyDeleteWe just ran a segment with Bill Walton chilling at the MGM Grand pool with young hotties and the Utah mascot while wearing a Willie Nelson shirt because of course he is.
ReplyDeleteBill Walton is the best.
He gets the razor when he is knocked outside, he gigs when Piper sucker punches him a minute later.
ReplyDeleteI preferred his less gushy blood than the crimson mask that Dusty and Flair would do. Getting a nasty cut happens in a real fight; the crimson mask is S&M porn.
ReplyDeleteEnjoying the hell out of this Comedy Bang Bang podcast ep. Whenever PFT plays Werner Herzog, I'm happy.
ReplyDeleteDamn, Chioda got blasted
ReplyDeleteFor the newly married among us; don't ever call your significant other a shitty person for calling you an incompetent ass when something goes wrong. It doesn't end well at all.
ReplyDeleteWow WM 8 Liz was smoking hot.
ReplyDeleteIt goes from a garbagey brawl to a proto-version of WrestleMania X-7
ReplyDeleteOh you're on the Water Buddies show!
ReplyDeleteWater Buddies?
ReplyDeleteHi every BoDy!
ReplyDeleteThat was a crazy fast gig. That's pretty impressive for sure.
ReplyDeleteWood (esp. morning)
ReplyDeleteIt was a joke we made about Natural Disasters. Imagine if it went the other way around and Tugboat got Earthquake to change his name to a boat.
ReplyDeleteReally dumb joke from a couple nights ago.
ReplyDeleteA different world where Earthquake embraced the power of Hulkamania and became half of a boat themed tag team with Tugboat.
WATER BUDDIES POWER, ACTIVATE
ReplyDeleteWhere's Burt?
Hi Darren!
ReplyDeleteHey Bill Cosby!
ReplyDeleteTHIS ONES FOR YOU BABY! WOOOOOOOOOOOOO
ReplyDeletehahaha I love Flair
DBSM, did you watch SHIELD this week
ReplyDelete...that's cold, man
ReplyDeleteAS COLD AS AN ICY COLD COKE WITH A COOL JELLO PUDDIN' POP
Were you here last night for the talk about Charlotte woo'ing when she gets it up the butt?
ReplyDeleteThe slow drawn out woo, too
Mike Rotunda would have to manage them.
ReplyDeletePretty good match. Clearly the worst of the trilogy but it was fun. ***1/2
ReplyDeleteI needed that laugh in the worst way right now, thanks guy.
ReplyDeleteGoddammit now I wish "The Water Buddies" had actually happened. The Disasters ended up faces anyways so it's not like we miss anything.
ReplyDeleteI'M NOT YOUR GUY, FWEND
ReplyDeleteArn Anderson for maximum humiliation when they let out their battle cry if "Toot Toot!"
ReplyDeleteI'm not one to toot my own horn but...
ReplyDeleteTOOT
TOOT
They could've had a sponsorship with Super Soakers and came to the ring spraying the crowd.
ReplyDeleteAs this match has been going on I've been browsing Caliber's brothers Facebook....so bored
ReplyDeleteWow, being told that life would be easier if you were dead feels about as painful as getting your balls smashed in. Anyone down for a PPV around 10:45 tonight or so?
ReplyDeleteWe'll be here!
ReplyDeletefor the single among you: don't ever get married.
ReplyDeleteHonestly? Show wasn't that bad. Silly overbooking and crash TV aside I thought it was fun enough.
ReplyDeleteThe parts I saw were ok
ReplyDeleteWe'll be queer!
ReplyDelete...right?
Ha, love the Autin/Hebner toast.
ReplyDeleteYes, Darren.
ReplyDeleteOH COME ON!
What show, XV?
ReplyDeleteKurt with a SWEET reverse triangle choke midair thingie!
ReplyDeleteWHATAMIDAIRTHINGIE
ReplyDeleteSHUT UP Mooney
ReplyDeleteJe-llo Pu-dding!
ReplyDeleteYou know what pretty boy interviewer always gets forgotten?
ReplyDeleteCraig DeGeorge
Really good match so far.
ReplyDeleteCraig DeGeorge --> Mooney --> Pettingill --> Lance Wright --> Cole --> Josh Matthews --> Todd Grisham
ReplyDeleteI lose track of the parade of pretty boy interviewers after that
I'll do WrestleMania 16 and call it a day. You got a set a special time for X7, baby.
ReplyDelete"One time means nothing in my career. Like your old lady Savage, your gonna be damaged goods!!!"
ReplyDeleteI'm not counting Coach in there
ReplyDeleteGood idea or bad idea:
ReplyDeleteInstead of Shawn turning on Marty, Marty turns on Shawn and becomes a dirty junkie heroin rocker while Shawn continues being a clean pretty boy cocaine rocker?
Not sure "reality" can be a what if
ReplyDeleteSo... like real life?
ReplyDeleteIt's kind of a weird thing to have lived through a whole generation of fans who so hated Vince on commentary that it was a goto joke, to Cole, to now Lawler. At this point, I feel fans would love a bit of "123Hegothimnohedidn't!"
ReplyDeleteGreat Brock-Angle match!!!
ReplyDeleteOk I have no interest in 16, where we at on SS 03
ReplyDeleteRemember when Ventura pulled Vince to the table a few years ago, comlete with the suit and Obsession?
ReplyDeleteVince really should channeled his past life there
I'd take David Crockett and Larry Matysik at this point.
ReplyDeleteVince had the disadvantage of being compared with legends like Russell, Solie, Ross, etc while these current doofuses don't have that.
Hey everybody! Have you seen my balls? They're big and salty and brown!
ReplyDelete1:45:30
ReplyDeleteIIIIIIIIIIII WANNA DIP MY BAAAAAALLLLLLS IN IT
ReplyDeleteAll upvotes possible!
ReplyDeleteIT'S LOUIE!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYep, it's awesome
ReplyDelete"WHEN DID SHE FUCK VIRGIL I'LL KILL THAT BASTARD!!!!
ReplyDeleteI was watching an old episode of Family Guy last night and they mentioned Peter's evil vaudeviile brother Thaddeus
ReplyDeleteI did not, forgot it was back. Guess I wanted more Agent Carter loo
ReplyDeleteNo upvotes necessary
ReplyDeleteJust $240
worth of pudding
b/c that's what I do, baby.
I cook
AND THEN I CHILLLLL
I have no idea why they went back to Anaheim and didn't give the LA Coliseum another shot for WrestleMania 16.
ReplyDeleteThat pop for Brock's return in 2012 was just insane
ReplyDeleteI'm about to hop on the train home, so to you all SS03 watchers...enjoy the end of the show lol! KING OF KINGS BABY
ReplyDeleteEven more upvotes for Barry and Levon!
ReplyDeleteI'M NOT YOUR FWEND, BUDDY!
ReplyDeleteWhat about the... Amish/nun fight? Amish/boy scout fight? I can't recall
ReplyDeleteBecause the Pond was still new-ish and the Coliseum is a dump?
ReplyDeleteKane needed to wash his face.
ReplyDeleteAWWWWWWWW YEEEEEAAAAAHHHH!
ReplyDelete"Why can't clowns and pirates just get along?"
ReplyDeleteFree Your Mind
The reaction for Y2J's Raw debut may be my favorite pop of all time. I wish they had just gone all-in on making him a monster star right away, just to spite WCW.
ReplyDeleteI love how all that scarring we heard about turned out to be cartoon ash face. Did Taker hit him with an Acme Bomb?
ReplyDeleteAt one point I had a rad handlebar moustache much like Peter's evil twin.
ReplyDeleteEarly 90's MTV:
ReplyDeleteBeavis and Butthead
The Idiot Box
The State
Liquid Television
Remote Control
Yo MTV Raps
Headbangers Ball
The Head
ReplyDeleteDon't swim for at least 30 min after eating
ReplyDelete*everyone screams in pain*
Aeon Flux was cool
ReplyDeleteIt wigged me out when he spread his wound filling on a cracker and ate it
ReplyDeleteOh yeah! Kane vs RVD's balls!
ReplyDeleteGodfather with the post smoking endorsement!
ReplyDeleteCall me old fashioned, but I think that fire is magic, and it scares me a lot.
ReplyDelete**whistles**
Do you realize for a while how many people from the State were in mainstream tv?
ReplyDeleteReno 911 had a couple people
Michael Ian Black
Joe LeTruglio is still going strong
Ken Marino has a show I think.
ReplyDeleteMichael Ian Jan and David Wain are cult directors.
Off to get pizza. Back in a few.
ReplyDeleteWait, you're acting as if we're still not getting that. It's just in a far blander form. Every single important match, like a title match, Cole will have his "COVER, WE HAVE A NEW CHAMPION, and a kickout at 2" that'll take the suspense out of every meaningful pinfall attempt.
ReplyDeleteDid everyone know that Rock was showing up to be Wrestlemania Host in 2011? Or was that a legit surprise?
ReplyDeleteThe Maxx!
ReplyDeleteWhen I think of LeTrulio, for some reason for the 1st thing that comes to mind is
ReplyDelete"Hey, you know a guy named Jimmy? You look just like his brother"
Look, everyone! It's Xavier Woods!
ReplyDeleteSuperbad! He was fantastic in that!
ReplyDeleteWrestlemania 16 was my one and only live in-person Mania and it felt like just another PPV. So weird, since they were delivering such great PPVs in 2000. The main event felt like Just A Match, rather than a Mania title match. The two triple threat matches delivered, but the rest was forgettable.
ReplyDeleteWeren't a bunch on Party Down?
ReplyDeleteThe big rumors was that it would be Justin Bieber. Rock was speculated as a pipe dream but it was a real surprise.
ReplyDeleteI LOVED Stella. I wish it would've gotten a longer run.
ReplyDeleteSorry, make that the criminally underrated and underappreciated Party Down.
ReplyDelete120 Minutes
ReplyDeleteAlternative Nation
You Wrote It, You Watch It
Singles Out
That's awesome. I had no idea about the Bieber thing. The pop was insanely huge. I feel like even when you suspect something is coming, it can still elicit a huge response. Everyone had already heard that Brock Lesnar was likely for the post-WM28 RAW, but the reaction is still fucking HUGE
ReplyDeleteAnother State-ism:
ReplyDelete"I'm outta.... heaaaaahhhhhh"
They were trying to stuff as many people as possible into the show and it just wound up falling flat.
ReplyDeleteGo you porcupines! Go! Go! Go!
ReplyDeleteVH1 classic does an alternative block at like 4 am on sunday mornings that is essentially 120 minutes
ReplyDeletereminds me of that time
That's why posted the PIL song the other day, it was on that
ReplyDeleteBecause I was born in the frozen tundra, I didn't get to watch The State. Kinda wish they'd put it up on Netflix.
ReplyDeleteAnd I *guess* we have to mention The Real World
ReplyDelete"Dads are dads and Dougs are Dougs, and never the 'tween shall meet!"
ReplyDelete"CHICKEN SANDWICH, CARL!!!"
ReplyDeleteYes. If they had just taken a breath and booked a coherent show, it could have been better.
ReplyDeleteThe Barry Lutz Show (asking the chimp if he knows he is), the prison without a fence (just a line that is considered "off limits"), and the mailman delivering tacos are some of my favorite sketches other than the Doug ones and Louie crashing the last supper.
ReplyDeleteIt's just like one of the bloated 80s WrestleManias.
ReplyDeleteI thought it was on there for a while, but not anymore. I'm pretty sure it can be found on Hulu or Hulu Plus
ReplyDeleteOr bootlegged on YouTube
ReplyDeleteHm... I'm currently looking for bootlegged Herman's Head on YouTube.
ReplyDeleteDid it appear in the Simpsons FOX graveyard?
ReplyDeleteGET A LIFE
ReplyDeleteDoesn't he die at the end?
They should've just made the main event Rock vs. HHH exactly as it was at Backlash, and then put Big Show in the Kane/Rikishi vs. DX match
ReplyDelete"Apparently some bleeding heart liberals have problems with me torturing monkeys for no good reason. All I can say is: Sorry. I guess I'm the bad guy."
ReplyDeleteOf like every show.
ReplyDeleteNot sure. But I've heard good things.
ReplyDeleteI have a hang gliding accident in mind
ReplyDeleteI think we were all supposed to be frightened of his "Larry from The 3 Stooges" haircut.
ReplyDeleteWhat was the show with Sam Kinison?
ReplyDeleteWhich we sort of get now in the form of ladder matches and battle royales with cheese
ReplyDeleteIn 2003, "ECW" was the "This is awesome!" of overused crowd chants.
ReplyDeleteKane-RVD hasn't been bad so far.
ReplyDeleteSo I rarely watch smackdown, did they edit DBry's audio on that intro? Cause it sounded pretty muted on this TV
ReplyDeleteAnd then going off of that, since you'd need a fresh main event for Backlash...I'd make it a fatal four way with Rock, HHH, Jericho, and Benoit. But then Backlash would have one less awesome match :(
ReplyDeleteWait, Summerslam 03?
ReplyDeleteHave fun during that main event. Maybe it's changedsince then
It's this company's way of trying to tell us that he's not as over as people say he is.
ReplyDeleteDaniel Bryan looks like a Blockbuster employee with his hair in a ponytail.
ReplyDeleteThis has been a pretty good PPV so far!
ReplyDeleteI really like Bayless Mania 2000 booking.
ReplyDeleteDoes it have the US title finals? Or the fatal 4 way for it?
ReplyDeleteFuck. Sid with a PP goal. I needed Malkin to get that.
ReplyDeleteRIP video stores with no "back room"
ReplyDeleteFatal 4 Way. Kane-RVD was okay. Brock-Angle was great. Bischoff-Shane was stupid fun.
ReplyDeleteCoach turn was a surprise
ReplyDeleteSo, uh, is that pizza for anyone?
RIP video stores.
ReplyDeleteI genuinely pray the Oilers die in a plane crash on their way back to Edmonton.
ReplyDeleteBulldoze the new arena construction and fold the franchise too.
That's how much i hate my own team nowadays.
For me until I decide to go shopping!
ReplyDeleteThat place must be really close. It was about 10 min ago you left to get it
ReplyDeleteI think I just got fucked on the scoring. Malkin got a PP assist but the BoD scoring only gave him 2 points instead of 4. wtf.
ReplyDeleteYeah, got that one already.
ReplyDeleteWalking distance. Pretty sweet. If I had them deliver is be the laziest asshole on the planet.
ReplyDeleteIC Job Squad match officially welcomes Daniel Bryan to the mix. So that's 7 geeks now?
ReplyDeleteDamn, Bradshaw is unleashing hell with the cookie sheets!
ReplyDeleteI'd argue that walking with a pizza is just as dangerous in terms of personal safety as walking with a new iPod or new Jordans was
ReplyDeleteI think it was a legit surprise
ReplyDelete2000 seems like a fun one to rebook because there's so much talent up and down the card.
ReplyDeleteThat was the alternative title for the LL Cool J album
ReplyDeleteBefore "Walking with a Panther" it was "Walking with a Pizza"
Ooh! You don't fuck with Nash's hair!
ReplyDeleteBryan has to be the most improved on the mic in the last couple of years.
ReplyDeleteEntrance music interruption after interruption.
ReplyDeleteThis is what they call booking nowadays.
I'd forgotten about that. He cut it to do Punisher, I think
ReplyDeleteThere's just way too many thing happening in this match, and it's too long.
ReplyDeleteWatching Missy Hyatt talk about penis sizes is surreal, uncomfortable, and perversely funny.
ReplyDeleteAlso people always point to WrestleMania 2000 as disappointing because the rest of 2000 was so strong but if you view WWF years as Mania to Mania then WM 2000 was the conclusion to the 1999 season and thus makes much more sense. X-7 was the conclusion to the 2000 season and is appropriately epic.
ReplyDeleteI almost had a place that is literally four doors down from me deliver my quesadilla today.
ReplyDeleteAre you new to WWE?
ReplyDeleteYup and he didn't return until the 2011 Royal Rumble i believe.
ReplyDeleteAgreed. But the first two ppvs of 2000 were the tits as well.
ReplyDeleteBoo, no I like to throw in X7 with the amazing Year 2001
ReplyDeleteAgreed. The chaos fits.
ReplyDeleteAlso 18 fits the general lameness of 2001.
29 years or so.
ReplyDeleteLike Sting, he sort of disappeared
ReplyDeleteNope, didn't go anywhere at all
No siree
It's a pretty standard opening gag.
ReplyDeleteIf you look at it this way, you have two misses out of 12. Kotr and SurSer
ReplyDeleteThe first 4 months of 2001 lumps in with 2000.
ReplyDeleteWM 18 was terrible. Summerslam was the real WM that year.
ReplyDeleteShoot Interview Poll is up
ReplyDeletehttp://vote.pollcode.com/33758437
I loved that show.
ReplyDeleteAre you guys watching Mania 2000?
ReplyDeleteHis 2nd departure lasted longer than his first (96-02)
ReplyDeleteCapri tights Triple h because...who fucking knows.
ReplyDeleteSo, WM 31 fits, too
ReplyDeleteBryan out
Shield breaks up
Stupid Ambrose booking
Bellas ad nauseum
I don't like 2000 near as much as 2001, even though Austin was a heel having him back was better
ReplyDeleteGroin injury!
ReplyDeleteThomas Lennon & Robert Ben Garant were doing well for awhile writing & directing, including the first two Night at the Museum movies.
ReplyDeleteHow well can you hear/understand Fuji?
ReplyDeleteYeah we're still in horrible snake bitten 2014 for WWE.
ReplyDelete
