"Who the fuck inducted Raven?"

11 billion stars http://youtu.be/EBsLiJvt_rc

Toni, Bigg Hoss, and Zeb Colter will steal yo' wimmens. Unless they ain't pretty enough.

I think it's great that the demise of Gonzalez who was one of the worst, most disruptive trolls imaginable, in part because his gimmick wasn't just meant to flame people but instead leeched on to actual discussions like some sort of virus, has led to a kumbaya roundtable discussion of DVDVR and our history with it. I also like that people all have different memories and people they remember. The place is so broad that it encompasses almost any interest imaginable. It's hit a bunch of mine but also stuff that I'm not interested in all.

I don't know which of these are the two that medaled and I don't really care. Canada! We are now instituting the Freebird Rule for all future moguls tag titles matches.

This isn't really good news for me so much as it's nice for my wife. But then again she is legally my property*, so I'll take credit for it. Back over Christmas she applied for a program with National Geographic where they choose a few teachers to go along with their photographers and scientists on a cruise. There were cruises to the British Isles, Antarctica and a few other places. When she was done she would go out into the community and talk about what National Geographic is doing. She applied thinking that she wouldn't get it. Yesterday she got a phone call from National Geographic and she got it. There were 1300 applicants and she was one of 25 teachers selected. She is going on this cruise to the Canadian Maritimes, St. Johns New Brunswick to St. John's Newfoundland and Labrador. There she'll see old ruins, speak with scientists and probably some other cool shit. I'm super happy and proud of her because she's a teacher. It's rough being a teacher right now in North Carolina, and she's finally getting some validation that she is special and has good ideas on how children should be learning instead of standardized testing bullshit. *also this part is a joke. Relax.

A smart company when attempting to build a star might just think about not feeding them shit, though. Keep in mind that they've killed off everybody else's momentum in the entire company and realize that maybe their way isnt working. In the main event scene you have Orton, Cena, Bryan, and Batista as names that move the needle. Below them you have the Shield and Wyatts, and then there's a vast chasm below with everybody else on the roster. Several dozen bits of filler thanks to a decade of pisspoor booking. You want to know why the Attitude era guys are still so over? Because they were booked to fucking matter no matter what their position on the card. Spike Dudley mattered more on his roster than 85% of the current active roster.

I really wish these commentators would shut the hell up. Now is not a time to speak about democracy and the nerve to say "I wonder how they will handle prison camps, etc" It's like me saying next time we have an Olympics, "hey, I wonder how they will handle slavery and all the terrible inhumane shit we did to the Native Americans!" Just shut up already.

If they're giving me a sequel to the greatest film of all time, I want the King of Summer to be in it.

I'mma recycle my friend's pic with Kobashi:

I'd love to see a Sabu induction "speech" consist of him pointing to the sky then walking off the stage

I work in radio. I work on an "active rock" formatted station which means I play some really, really shitty music in very tight rotations. Nickelback, Saving Abel, Theory of a Deadman...yes, shit. However, whenever I tell our music consultant, even jockingly "oh goody...and another Nickel-Abel of a Deadman cut" he says "they test well in top 20 markets and pack arenas so they must be great." He then proceeds to ask me why all of the good music (and I can hear the smug fucker doing finger quotes as he says it) can't break main stream. When I try and tell him it's because they aren't on labels big enough to push them, he finishes with "if they were good, they'd be on the big labels that would give them the push." This is the same circular argument I hear when I breath the notion that maybe Triple H isn't on top because he's the greatest ever but because he's been pushed hard enough that the lowest common denominator started to buy him as "the king of kings."

Natural is the nicest guy on the board, I'd say that would be a near unamious vote. Not that Brian doesn't have a few decent qualities. Cheering for the sad Lions notwithstanding.

The Outlooks could do a Windows 8 gimmick, where they somehow manage to take their dated schtick and make it even worse.

"EVERYTHING IS AWESOME~!" - Me and My wife ALL DAY TODAY.

Titus yelling "let's talk about it now" when cowering on the floor from Young's assault was great

Yeah, good on ya Tabe for sticking with it. You're now at the show's prime. Get ready for Antwon Mitchell. "When I say suck my dick, you say, 'do you want me to lick your balls, daddy?'"

I want to make a Stevie Ray joke so bad right now.

"WHY THE FUCK IS THERE AN ICE CREAM CONE IN A WRESTLING RING!?"

Good ol' JR: "By Gawd, King, we're starting off tonight's show with a visit from some of the members of the DVDVR crew, apparently. Here comes Melraz, RUkered, Misanthrope and jstout. One of them's got a mic, let's hear what they have to say." Lawler: PUPPIES PUPPIES PUPPIES PUPPIES! jstout: I'd like to take a brief second to call out the rest of the DVDVR crew. J.T., get down here, I know you're in the back, quit chasin' Juggalettes for a second and get down here. Metatext, Rippa, Big Fresh, Novacain, everybody, we've got something to say. (ring fills up) What we'd like to say is ... NOW! (the four of us jump everyone as foreign objects, blood and puppies fly). Good ol' JR: "Can you believe this? They've turned their back on their crew! (Insert righteous anger here)" The four of us rip off our DVDVR crew shirts to reveal new colors - we're now working for Bane's Secret Service, an elite fighting unit designed to wreak havoc in Gotham City, I mean, Los Santos. That actually could've happened. Count Von Count nearly made us an offer we couldn't refuse tonight, but we did, somehow. The fight continues~! EDIT: Darn it, I was hoping to at least get a "huh?" before telling the story. We pop into Freemode last night, size up the room and there's a level 700-plus guy there. Target acquired. A firefight breaks out, some players drop and and drop out, and eventually it's us against him. He kills me 10-1 total and generally holds his own with everyone else. He then makes his escape to his apartment. As we're cussing him in an Xbox chat room, we get an invite to his apartment. Can't pass this up. So we go and notice his mouth is moving and the talk icon's on. So we switch over to the game chat and the dude won't quit doing this screwed-up voice. He's talking about how we're all fine players, and asks if we're in a crew, and which one. I tell him "Death Valley Driver," this puzzles him, I explain it's a wrestling move. He then invites us to be a part of his Secret Service and help him rid the town of our enemies. RUkered, a worldly man, explains that he's doing an imitation of Bane from the Batman movie I never saw. Oh. He also says dude was doing a pretty good Mark Hamill's Joker from the Batman cartoon at one point. I'll have to take his word for that, but at one point I thought he sounded like Count Von Count and then just your regular "I want to bite your neck" vampire cliche. It was funny for about 10 minutes, then got old, and I told him "dude, seriously, what's your deal? Drop the act and talk to us. Where are you from, how old are you?" But he absolutely wouldn't quit talking in those voices. He was completely committed to kayfabe and wouldn't shoot with us. He dares us to fistfight him out in the street and he generally kicks our ass 'cause he's level 700-plus. He was punching Misanthrope from 300 yards away and killing him. Mis was getting a little pissed, but I'm like "dude, he's 700 something and you're 30 something. What do you expect?" It was probably the most bizarre thing I've been a part of on the game, and damn, does that cover some ground. I'm just glad other people were there to back up my story.

I wish they would have ran with the "Punk as a freelancer and being the WWE champion" angle a little more than they did. But I realize that was a farfetched idea from the beginning, we're lucky we got the Comic-Con thing.

If they were, they'd be wrestlers or promoters.

For all of Punk's talent, he does seem like a very whiny, difficult person to be around. I'm not at all surprised many people in WWE are glad to see the back of him, or coming out of the woodwork to trash him. The man does have this hilarious ability to make everyone he meets into a supporting character in the Saga of People Who Fucked Over Phil Brooks. The Rock...stealing all his main event glory, practically spitting in his face! The Miz....stealing the main event spot at WrestleMania 27, practically spitting in his face! People in management getting pissed at his girlfriend for being rude to a visiting celebrity, practically spitting in his face! Vince putting him against Triple H at WrestleMania XXX, practically spitting in his face! Not since Livia Soprano has anyone wandered around with such a sense of undeserved martyrdom.

See, my big problem with the whole "HHH is brilliant, workin' the smarks" thing is that "workin' the smarks" JUST HAPPENS to look exactly like "be put over as the smartest bad-ass that's ever existed in the history of wrestling, laugh off the losses I do take, and mock, on-air, anyone who might be perceived as better or more popular in any way." Yeah, gotta be real hard to commit to all that just to work those nerdy ol' smarks.

Look who's made the wwe.com website: Any mention of Braden Walker needs the following:

Like this post if you think bragging about your Like ratio should be a bannable offense.

STOP GIVING HIM IDEAS.

I dunno about her make-up, but her hair was straight jheri-curl.

I don't know which of these are the two that medaled and I don't really care. Canada!

That was a great ending to Raw 1000 (which I was at, by the way). You should have mentioned that before pal

I cannot remember for the life of me what drew me here but I know I made a fucking idiot out of myself exclusively in non-stick wrestling until that got canned. Then I discovered the board had other things, and I can make a fucking idiot out of myself on a much wider scale.

HE'S A COMMIE!

Matt Lauer: "These athletes from the smaller countries..they know...they know they're not going to win a medal". Matt Lauer is a shit.

Even if you're leaking something out, you'd think the phrase "little bitch" wouldn't come up so often in a professional conversation.

Nobody gave a fuck about Punk with the title after he won it until he feuded with Rock. Nobody. The idea that Punk was buried whilst being the champion and having the longest reign in modern times is scraping the barrel of excuses for your guy.

See, this is why I am always hesitant to mention my dislike of the guy.

Tadpole Splash = most protected finisher in the WWE.

Yeah... Less likely...

Blessed be Harley, His briefcase, His promo, and His sports coat....

Good times

After only 4 months at the new job, I got a raise today.

Not trying to shit on Colt here, but this kinda sums up their respective careers.
