All I know is, Million Dollar Mania would make for a hilarious induction! ;D

I thought I'd give this a bump seeing as it's November.
There only 5 things that I think can win the award: Mike Adamle, Million Dollar Mania, ODB taking a dump, Hilary vs Obama, and Santino vs Cousin Sal.

The Chronicles of Mike Adamle have now made a jump forward since his career is over.

And a post-script to Million Dollar Mania... RD mentioned in his monthly Fighting Spirit article (yes, somehow we get that here) that the Million Dollar Mania stage collapse stunt happened only 2 WEEKS after a tragic accident at the TNA Slammiversary PPV, where a worker was killed by falling off an element of the stage scaffolding. If they didn't know about that happening (I'm surprised they wouldn't have) and went ahead with it, I'd be just upset at them for the stupidness of the angle. But, if they DID know about it, then went ahead with it, then that is one of the most disgusting and distasteful things I've ever seen in wrestling. It should win the Gooker just for that. That is, if it was to be believed. Not a knock on RD. It's just a coincidence and nothing more. Then again, it took place a days before or after the B*n**t thing...

Cousin Sal is not on my radar for Gooker because in interviews Sal said all he wanted was like a quick feud, and he KNEW that it was going to be bad. So that kinda defeats the whole "Wrestlecrap" premise if you know it's going to blow!
Here's what I think are possible contenders:
WWE: Million Dollar Mania (so bad other shows made fun of Vinnie Mac) Mike Adame (just his whole year in WWE. From interviewer, to ECW Commentator, to GM. It's like he was building a resume worthy of The Gooker) Braden Walker (so bad he quit wrestling!) Hiliary Clinton vs Barack Obama (could be relate able now since Obama's the president. Uh...WAIT A MINUTE!!!)
TNA: Eric Young looking for Elvis. TNA rips off WWE gimmicks (Shark Boy becomes "Stone Cold" Shark Boy, Eric Young becomes "The Hurricane" er... "Super Eric", Sting channels Bret Hart, Abyss & Judas Mesiahs = Undertaker & Kane) The Beautiful People Beauty Pageant (UGH! Only thing this was good for is if Blade ever needs a member for his band that can play the drums, call Taylor Wilde!) Booker T doing his "Mr. Big" impersonation from "Live & Let Die"

hornsowggle turns wwe into a live cartoon, complete with TNT,box traps and a painted hole in the wall, i dare any wrestling promoter in the world to conceive of a more idiotic angle.( i can imagine even Russo saying " what the hell did i just watch ?" ) Um... wrong year. Its partially there fault it still feels like its going on, that and i haven't been able to distinguish the last 3 apart aside from maybe a hand full of memory worthy matches.

How about Miz and Morrison constantly mock the age of DX. DX mocks their own old age, then still destroy Miz and Morrison in a tag match where it wouldn't have hurt DX's career any and helped further the angle of the tag team of the 21st century. Not to mention on the same show an almost 90 year old woman beating ever heel Diva in the company with elbow shots after taking a sick bump.

ah yes...the Beautiful People beauty contest, I almost forgot
The Beautiful People beauty contest - where hidden talents include bad drumming and unfunny jokes is judged by The Prince Justice Brotherhood and an announcer wants a oral pleasure from Angelina Love (TNA)

i really think Team 3D's "making weight" angle wshould be considered.the angle earlier this year, that involved them having to make it to 250 or they coulden't wrestle.
the angle was so dumb it was killed in a month.

You know. There's at least a couple of TNA Wrestlecrap possible Gookers that we forgot.
1. I'm going to throw the whole Sarah Palin as a member of "The Beautiful People" just for the hell of it because that sure is going to blow!
2. Wrestlecrap has it's own little wing for this one so why not add this to the Gooker List.
TNA Impact: The Video Game!
The game is so bad that Midway Games is about to face bankruptcy, even shutting down, thanks to the massive debt that it created. Gamestop, one of the big video game retailers in the country, is telling people that they are not buying any more copies of the game for the sheer reason is that people are selling this game BACK to Gamestop like hell. And they slashed the price on the game down to at least 50% or lower! Most people in the video game industry are rating this game an "Epic Fail" level of suckitude!
If that's not Wrestlecrap, I don't know what is!

(He is NOT Vince's son, but Finlay's) Current gimmicks: Khali kiss cam Charlie Haas the 'chameleon' Divas Championship Festus lvs Maria Internet rivals (miz/moz vs Chryme Tyme) I liked the Honk-O-Meter, the Jackass thing is really more of a throwing together of several different gimmicks, the "800th episode" should be inducted more on the strength of being horrendously booked than for a mere six-episode quibble, the Hornswoggle thing should be an update to the previous Gooker induction, the main problem with the Divas title is really just a) the horrendous design and b) its invisibility, Haas is more over than with just about any other gimmick he's ever had, there is at least some consensus the Dirt Sheet/Word Up feud rules, and the Festus-Maria love connection will only become Wrestlecrap if it becomes something offensive out of something like "Of Mice and Men". But the Kiss Cam is clearly Wrestlecrap. Opinions can differ on Santino/Cousin Sal, but I think RD would have fun inducting it.

I don't have any major nominations myself, but on a personal note, I'd mark a bit if Mike Adamle was named the Gooker, because I was at the show where he was first announced as GM. I can testify to the confused, deflated "WTF!!??" reaction that swept the whole arena when it happened. If it won, I could forever say, with some strange sort of pride, that I witnessed WrestleCrap firsthand.
