42: Don't Try This At Home (14 pts.) Bodies have been broken (how do you learn to fall off a 20-foot ladder) .... This public service message appears at the beginning of every WWE DVD, PPV and who knows where else. The bottom line is that what happens in the ring should be left to the professionals. Well tell that to all the backyard wrestlers and half the people who've appeared in the Botchamania videos. For whatever reason, this message has made its presence felt in the forums. Someone else will need to provide details on what makes these so popular, though.

41: Benoit's Look Of Confusion (14 pts.) It was just supposed to be a random shot on an episode of Smackdown. The next day, wwe.com ran a photo of then-US Champion Chris Benoit looking as confused and dumbfounded as some guy who had just seen John Cena tap out Triple H. Once the photo's existence made its way to the Wrestlecrap forums, crappers took control of it and had their way with Mr. Benoit, doing anything they could to mock the random shot of one of Canada's finest. But the pic seems to have graduated from being a tool for make fun of Benoit, to being a way for forum members to express their own confusement and misunderstanding of other postings. While making fun of someone certainly gets old, using a quirky photo to occasionally express a lack of understanding may have more longevity. Thus, don't be surprised if this photo sticks around a while longer.

40: Choose John Cena and Edge's Partners (15 pts.) Do you all recall how whenever someone will be facing a myster opponent or has a mystery partner, that WWE will have a graphic showing a "shadow" in place of the impending surprise participant? Well WWE once had one of those, except there were two shadows to represent the mystery partners of John Cena and Edge. And with the magic of photoshop, every crapper who could would insert some of the most random characters they could. Unfortunately, the actual thread has been lost in time. Should anyone have time or the capabilities of digging it up, there are lost treasures to be found.

39: Bobby Lashley Says No (15 pts.) The third overall appearance of Bobby Lashley. This time it's to honor his ability to say "no." And hilarity ensues.

38: Places Khali Could Beat Cena (17 pts.) Despite his inability to speak English, the Great Khali did his best to get the message that he was better than John Cena. And when it comes to getting into fights, one of the most simple ways of expressing your superiority is to explain to your opponent that you can beat him in any environment. And that's just what Khali did - tell Mr. Cena that he was capable of defeating the Marine for the WWE Title anytime and any place. Enter the Wrestlecrap forum members, who once again took advantage of their photoshop capabilities and put together images of Khali defeating Cena in the zaniest of places. Credit for the above image goes to crapper TNL Trump Never Lies.

37: Ric Flair Is Custom Made (18 pts.) Ric Flair is a stylin' and profilin', limousine ridin', jet flying, kiss stealin', wheelin' dealing, son of a gun, WOOOOOO!! Yes, we all know, and we never get tired of hearing it. But someone else had the bright idea of taking the Nature Boy's famous catch phrase, repeating it over and over and putting some hip hop music in the background. The result was this: youtube.com/watch?v=_1LcJ6N9vwoHence, you had one of the greatest music videos to ever hit the Wrestlecrap forums.

36: Free Posting (19 pts.) Free posting is just as it sounds, although it often comes with a twist. Sometimes threads get hijacked and go off on crazy tangents, while other times a pattern just happens to develop and posters leave message after message that rhyme. Regardless, there are no rules except for the existing ones that mods enforce.

Okay, I'm going to call it quits for tonight. I'm going to leave you with hints on the next five. In no particular order:
- Tributes to one of our own. - You think you're fine, and then all of a sudden, this happens. - What we would do if something were to happen. - Sledgie is the real star here. - He was always in the same place at the exact same time every week.

The only fad I can recall creating is "smark bait." I wonder if that'll be on the list--perhaps I should've voted.
Anyway, pretty cool list. It should be interesting to see which fads make it into the top ten.

You'll all have to bare with me for awhile. I'm not posting any more tonight and I start my day a little earlier than normal tomorrow, so I won't have time before work to add to the countdown unless I wake up extra early, and that ain't happening.
So I won't be adding things until about maybe after 9 p.m. PST.

I have a feeling that my caption threads won't be making the list. Or the Ric Flair ending his sentences with a wrestling move thing either.

Most of the ones we voted for have appeared, however Mr Luger and Stamp are still nowhere to be seen. Are they booked to appear? I Don't Know!
