**Obligatory joke about Ric Flair bleeding while doing the challenge goes here.**
I dunno, this seems cool and all, pouring buckets of ice water over ones head to raise awareness for ALS and all, but isn't California in the middle of the worst drought in decades?

Man all these f***ing millionaires should just donate the 100 bucks, cheap bastards...
One weirdo who likes talking dead and Pepsi also did it in Chicago, but since he's no longer famous, not even the wrestling news sites covered it, you wanted to be left alone but still be famous, you can't have it both ways kid, the best of lucks in your future vh1 countdowns.

Do many of the people donate for the cause afterwards? It's good to raise awareness, but I hope the whole point of it is that more donations occur, not just for Lou Gherig's Disease, but for all other ailments, too. Donations are up quite a bit this year with this thing happening so its working

Bonus points for doing the Triple H water-spitting pose.

You see, its things like this that make me unable to completely hate Trips. Loved that he did the spit thing. I'd like to think its just an unconscious reflex at this point. I know what you mean. I've always had the sense that he's a heartless asshole professionally but a nice guy personally. Punk didn't take it properly, it barely even touched his head!

Donations are up quite a bit this year with this thing happening so its working That's an understatement. According to The Christian Science Monitor, "The challenge, trending with hashtags such as #IceBucketChallenge and #StrikeOutALS, has raised $9.5 million in donations between July 29 and Aug. 15 compared with $1.6 million during the same time period last year, according to the ALS Association, noting that among those who donated this year, 184,812 were new donors." link

Vince has done it - he's challenged Donald Trump, Maria Menounos and Kermit the Frog.

I was going to sub to the network, but after this I'm giving my 9.99 to ALS instead!

I don't mind younger guys doing it. But I know that an ice water bath helped kill former Washington Redskins head coach George Allen. He was coaching at a small college, his players gave him one after a practice and it led to a heart arythmia

Watching Vince do it really makes me miss how great he is at selling something. He made me excited at the chance of seeing Donald Trump. That's an accomplishment.
