I see several people mentionned the Vince is dead/exploding limo thing, but I still fail to see how it's WrestleCrap. Seriously, it had people excited about what was going to happen next, they were really looking forward to the next show, they elaborated theories on who was behind it and why, etc... In short, people were really interested in this angle until it got canceled because of the Benoit murder and suicide. That's sounds like a pretty efficient storyline to me and pretty much the opposite of WrestleCrap.

Okay, forget THE CONDEMMED and THE MARINE, I have a movie that makes those two look like CITIZEN KANE. While I have not seen it yet, I have seen and read the box which was enough to tell me that this is Wrestlecrap.
It's called THE WRESTLEMANIAC. And it's about a group of college kids in a small Mexican town where they learn of a phantom Lucha who rips people's faces off. One of the college kids is Layla Milani, former WWE Diva search contestant and #13 on DEAL OR NO DEAL. As the evil phantom Lucha, Rey Mysterio
If I could do screen captures I'd do the write up for you

Vince Russo as WCW champion-If they could not have done any worse with David Arquete winning the championship, Vince Russo also got the belt and then vacated it so he would not lose it. This led to...
The four boxes match-Jarret and Booker T fight for the vacated WCW championship in a match where a box is above each turnbuckle. In one of the boxes is the WCW Championship belt. In the other boxes are a Blow Up Doll, a picture of Scott Hall (who had not been seen in ages) and a coal miner's glove.
Haas, Viscera, Lillian storyline-Haas accidently knocks Lillian off the ring apron setting up a fued between Viscera and Haas.

And it's about a group of college kids in a small Mexican town where they learn of a phantom Lucha who rips people's faces off. One of the college kids is Layla Milani, former WWE Diva search contestant and #13 on DEAL OR NO DEAL. As the evil phantom Lucha, Rey Mysterio If I could do screen captures I'd do the write up for you Funnily enough I did a review of Wrestlemaniac about a year ago. It's not great but I figured I'd post it here. Obvioulsly there're spoilers here for those of you legitimately concerned about the plot.... ****************** If you've met me,you'll know that I am obsessed with wrestling.If you've read a couple of these blogs then you'll know that I love horror movies.
And that lead me neatly to 'Wrestlemaniac'. A wrestling horror movie. Yes you read that correctly,a WRESTLING HORROR movie. To my knowledge, the only one of it's kind in existence, and available in a in an honest-to-goodness reputable entertainment store. Thank you HMV!
First things first, let me just say I went into this movie with expectations of a low variety, I mean I knew this was going to suck. I just wanted to see one thing...to see somebody get killed via suplex or some other wrestling move. I see that I go home happy.
So how does the movie go? Well... The cast and crew of an amateur porn movie are driving through Mexico, and surprise surprise, they're lost! They decide to stop at an abandoned petrol station....always a bad omen! Here they run into a crazy old man, another bad omen, who does what all crazy old men in horror movies do, namely telling passers-by, "Stay away from (insert name of evil place here)". The evil place in question,La Sangro De Dios.
Back in the van, 'Fatty', who's fat and so is reffered to as such by the other characters, tells the story of La Sangro De Dios.
By the way he's also Mexican. Fat and Mexican? That's just Hurley from LOST! Yes, the character is basically just Hurley from LOST, even down to the patented cleavage sweat.
So what's the deal with La Sangro De Dios? Well y'see, that's where El Mascarado lives. 'But who's El Mascarado?', I hear you ask
Well, in the 60's, the then Mexican president, a huge lucha-libre fan, wanted Mexico to compete in Olympic wrestling. Y'see he was desperate to beat Mexico's biggest rivals, the Russians. What? You don't remeber that massive Soviet/Hispanic Cold War in the 60's.
Anywho, the 3 best Luchadors of the time then went missing, shortly after El Mascarado showed up, and he was unstoppable. But there was just one tiny problem...HE WAS INSANE! Unable to stop him murderfying people, he was then sent to live in the town never to be let out.
Sorry to break away here, but who in their right mind would think entering a Luchador into Olympic wrestling was a good idea. Apart from Amateur and Professional wrestling being poles apart, I couldn't think of a worse style for the Olympics then Mexican wrestling. It's just impractical.
The van breaks down after hitting an inconveniently placed boulder, and it stops just outside the chained gates of La Sangro De Dios. Like idiots they decide to go in to shoot their skin flick.
Daisy, Jimbo, Alfonz and Debbie are all killed at the hands of EL Mascarado, none putting up a fight. And they all have their faces peeled off. Wait a minute? What?!
Oh yeah, you see the ultimate shame for a Luchador is to have their mask taken off, so as must people don't have masks El Mascarado takes their faces! (Say what you want,I thought that was clever!) And after 40 years El Mascarado has developed a face-peeling technique that's high on effect but low on time.
Halfway through we learn Fatty's name is actually Steve,and that not even 50 lobotomies could stop El Mascarado. That's alot of insane evil.
The only way to kill El Mascarado is to remove his mask, Steve tries but fails spectacularly. Last person Dallas, played by Diva Search loser Layla Melani, soon follows suit with the rest and dies. THE END
So Wrestlemaniac was over, what did I think? Well for me any scares in the movie were cancelled out by the fact that the killer was in no way, shape or form the least bit scary. Of all the horror villians this guy was the second most ridiculous(Go watch Killjoy). After seeing guys like The Great Khali, or truly scary looking masked wrestlers like Kane, or hell Vader, a short, bug-eyed Mexican luchador in white tights and black boots doesn't instill me with fear.
Also remember what I said I wanted to see in this film? The one thing that if I saw, I'd be happy...someone getting killed by a wrestling move? DIDN'T HAPPEN! In fact there are no wrestling moves done at all, El Mascarado just walks around menacingly, growling and what not. Sure he throws people into walls,s mashes his fist through windows, takes people's faces and all that. But where is the decapitation via hurracanrana, or mutilation by armdrag. Hell, even Steve's savage beating in the ring takes place off-screen, though this was probably because there wasn't a fat enough stunt double.
Also at two points people were in a room surrounded by steel chairs and they didn't use a single one! C'mon, steel chairs how can you have a wrestling horror movie and not use a steel chair as a defense? It's staring you right in the face. I was sorely dissappointed!
Despite all it's faults, and believe me there are a lot of them, I would recommend this movie. Don't get me wrong it sucks, it sucks majorly, but man, this movie has one of the best opening credit songs for a horror movie I've ever heard....
Everything else is downhill. ******************

TNA mascot Stomper the kangeroo I'm pretty sure it's already been inducted, alongside Wild Cat Willie and other mascots. Stomper was mentioned in the Wildcat Willie induction, but it itself hasn't been inducted.

Something I recently found out about that just screams Wrestlecrap. Rikishi vs Albert in a Kiss my Ass Match? I thought albert period should be in. You make your debut named after aa pierceing of a mans privates. And also being nicked named the Hip Hop Hippo and having to wear wear wacky wreasling gear and a stupid cap(that looked like a condom on his head lol ironic for prince albert) as u dance around the ring like a idiot.

I got a feeling, that with tommorrow being 9/11, the Hassan/sacrifice angle is going to get posted as the new induction. I don't already see it on the list of inductions and I know in 05 they even talked about it being a gooker candidate.
