Hi guys. I had an idea while viewing a thread and I thought I'd share. Video Wrestlecrap
Whether that's just stuff like the Snitsky baby punt...
...or Wrestlecrap created classics like the Braden Walker DVD video. Speaking of...you heard that Victoria had reposted it on her myspace blog?
Does it really need its own forum? Why couldn't we just throw the videos with the regular threads like they currently are?
People on the internet love watching videos and making it easy for them to find what they're looking for makes them happy. How old is YouTube and how popuar is the site?
I wouldn't go nuts and force everyone to post all videos there. I was thinking more along the lines of a video version of the Wrestlecrap forum.
The only downside I see is: - proboards only embeds youtube videos - lots of youtube videos will get pulled.
I don't think you are concerned with any copyright problems since the videos are already being posted. I'm basically just suggesting to organize them better.
Well that's pretty much it.

heh. I love how the thread just picks up again without missing a beat. I didn't realize this was an old thread until I saw someone mention Coach and Cole doing commentary on Smackdown.
I think JBL gives us all sorts of real reasons to dislike him (mainly him being a bully and winning the title off Eddie without working his way up the ladder as everyone expected) and that clouds our (the IWC's) judgment on him in the ring. Him not being the greatest technical wrestler shouldn't matter. This isn't the Olympics. It's a show. Hulk Hogan is and always has been a terrible wrestler, but he's considered one of the greatest ever.
I think it's JBL's a very good heel and him being a backstage bully comes out in that character really well. It's like most wrestlers say the best gimmick is themselves cranked up to 10.
Sometimes he goes too far in the ring, but all that ends up happening is he gets more over as a heel from his bully tactics. Take his match against Noble this week on RAW. Noble has got to be hurting after that one. Or better yet his massacre of Hornswoggle in the cage. When I saw that I thought to myself that JBL had just moved near the front of the pack for the top heel in WWE. It was just something you expect from the cold blooded Triple H.

Ohmygod ohmygo ohmygod!!! Victoria likes my video! That has officially made my day! Yeah... if I'd have known how popular it was gonna be I'd have slapped a WrestleCrap logo or something on the end. Same with the photoshop I made. At least I haven't seen anyone taking credit for it themselves yet, just people mistakenly thinking that someone else posting it must have made it. OH MY GOD! VICTORIA POSTED MY VIDEO!!!! I should have known someone from here made that. I give you mad props sir If that URL is YOUR video and not a copy of your video, you ought to add something to the video description and in your profile mentioning WrestleCrap. It might not be too late. She might go looking for what else that YouTuber has made or maybe share it with a few co-workers Or better yet send her a message on myspace telling her it's your creation and tell her about WrestleCrap. I'm sure if you use the right subject you could get her to read your message.

Just a one shot deal and not for TNA or WWE. www.prowrestling.com/article/news/10106 I bet it's for NWE in Spain. If they can afford Warrior and RVD among others, I'd be willing to bet they'd throw money at Goldberg too.

NOTHING devalues a title more than having three "World" Champions in the same company. NOTHING. Except that company has the equivalent of three wrestling promotions inside it, hence the need for three world titles.

It's idiotic. Every pinfall and submission in that 20-minute time limit is a title change. I know titles are props, but do they really need to make it THIS obvious? Not according to the description Adamle gave of the match. It sounded like it will be CM Punk going in as the champion and the person who scored the final pinfall or submission as the winner and possible new champion. So all the pinfalls and submissions in the match other than the final one won't matter. Those are the only two people that will be listed on WWE.com in the World Title lineage....which started with Triple H being handed the title.

I'm not sure why everyone that thinks it was a poor idea to ride a motorcycle shortly after being cleared to wrestle.
So it's ok for him to do very physical stuff including taking chair shots, punches, kicks, submission holds and whatever else that gets thrown at him, but doing something like riding a motorcycle (which last time I checked isn't as physical as wrestling) isn't?

Who wants to bet that the CW will fold by this time next year? I don't imagine aiming their programming at women will have any more success. By doing it that way they're ignoring the males in the audience and probably females living with males. If I was in their position I would have tried to put different programming on after SD that might catch the attention of WWE viewers, instead of just hoping they stick around because they're too lazy to change the channel.

Wow, they really hate Cena in Peru. I remember that being the source of that video where the crowd chanted "JOHN CENA SUUUUUUUUUUCKS!" to his entrance music. I actually can't believe that didn't catch on. If the Cena haters really wanted to get to him, they would have started singing that on his entrance. I've never seen that before. I just looked on youtube and could only find Kennedy at a press conference enciting the fans by telling them Cena sucks to wild cheers. Does it still exist on youtube?

Weird. I agreed with alot of the things she said. As one of the other posters said either it's very good coaching from you or she just gets it.
I like how you censor out some of the crap they air and then watch the show with her.

God, here's hoping. If the ratings spike for the show, we may be in business. This week's rating isn't really the one to watch. It's next week's. Will people hearing about what happened this week cause more to tune in? I'm not taking any stock in this week's. It's the next 3-4 that will tell the story. Yeah, but I'm sure WWE is also hoping for a ratings bump from the draft last week and the PPV last night. First RAW with the new rosters in place.

I'd prefer that Holly teams up with Deuce (recently drafted to RAW) and then have Holly get suckered again by a second generation superstar. Have Deuce join up with DiBiase and Rhodes and you've got the makings of a pretty good second generation stable.

He's working on projects outside of wrestling. I know of something that he's working on called the "Heyman Hustle", but I don't know what that entails. Perhaps someone else could elaborate. Really awful hidden camera show for an English newspaper that has nothing to do with wrestling and is only shown on the internet. It's not a hidden camera show.

Paul Burchill: he was great as a Pirate type gimmick--dumb yet funny as well--kinda like the whole Superhero gimmick Helms had......but Helms also ended up getting an interesting heel gimmick to replace that one as well.....Burchill's "I wanna make love to my sister" gimmick is sick and extremely creepy and sucks in every single way. You DO realize that the I wanna make love to my sister angle was dropped a couple months ago, right?

PWInsider has in their headline for his appearance on RAW that DiBiase is third generation. Orton is third generation as well.
WWE are probably hoping that they get over exactly as they debuted. Without a gimmick other than being someone's kid/relative.
Why?
They're lazy is my guess. Or maybe they figure if they go to the well with it enough times it'll work sooner or later.

He doesn't even want to, I'm sure in one of his Sun interviews he says specifically he'd not want to work for TNA. He also says that's because the people in charge live in a bubble where no one dares to say anything negative because they have improved since they started. In other words he doesn't think Dixie can handle being told the truth or how to make things better than they currently are. I don't know how he'd make it better, but I know he would.

I think there's some confusion over this. They had one appearance on RAW that was questionable before WWE changed focus to a more kid friendly product and changed their gimmick.
Yes, I realize prowrestling.com just decided to rewrite this today, but it is old news by like a week or two.

I still think it's bullcrap. He went to take his son to a wrestling show. How many times in his life can he do that AS A WRESTLER? I'm sure his son can see him anytime, but to attend a show with your dad, as normal people? I'm sure that's all he wanted to do with his kid. That's the first I've heard about this. Every other item on the internet said he went to see his buddy's match (Johnny Devine). If your story is true I think it's still stupid of him to go to TV tapings of the competition, especially knowing how they try to live off WWE with borrowing angles, gimmicks and mentioning WWE at every turn. If the kid wants to see a wrestling show with his dad, how about a wrestling show that isn't televised nationally? If I had heard before that an active WWE wrestler was going to be sitting in the crowd at iMPACT I honestly would have expected TNA to try and get a rub from the WWE superstar in some manner.
