Are there any moments when you think WrestleCrap has (or nearly) jumped the shark?
I would have to go with Triple Kelly becoming the main writer (with RD being "kicked upstairs" and having limited involvement, i.e., only providing supplemental stuff). I'm not knocking on both of them.

No, I don't think it's jumped the shark at all. Triple Kelly is more then suitable as a replacement to RD as the main introduction writer.

Similar to Family Guy, when they came back the 2nd time. Still alot of good stuff, but nothing can touch those original inductions.

Never has even came close to "jumping the shark" in my eyes. Always an entertaining read.
If it's that bad, you don't have to visit the page. Simple as that.

Last Summer when Blade took a trip to Florida and jumped over the sandshark pool at SeaWorld with his moped.

When they ignored my pleas to do Global angles and gimmicks ;-)
Seriously, WC got a lot of the most infamous examples for entries early on, so that might have something to do with it. That and a lot of current WWE stuff gets in and it's just frustrating to read about rather than fun.
/But more Global would be nice...

I don't think WC has necessarily jumped the shark. It has "evolved."
...Ok, I know that's a cop out but work with me here. For example, Wrestlecrap used to be just articles, then articles with soundbytes, now they're articles with outside references all the time and the random interruption by Blade and RD. For an example of this "category", take a look at a Nostalgia Critic video.
Now that doesn't necessarily make them a bad article, quite the opposite. They're just different, so I might see why somebody could have a problem with it, they just like "the old stuff."
Anyway keep up the good work KKK.

I also think it's the state of the business. Wrestlecrap was great because it was generally the exception, and the stuff that was inducted made you laugh. Now, most of the major wrestling in the USA is just bad and their is a sadness reading alot of the inductions because it is now so representative of the product,

It hasn't IMHO but maybe we can convince RD or Blade to actually jump a Shark?

We're the only ones who can jump the Shark, stick the landing, tell the boat to take us around again, jump the shark again, and midway through the jump, punch the shark and knock it the F out like Mongo in Blazing Saddles.

I don't know, letting that 411/Inside Pulse reject camp out his stupid "what if" column, run maybe four or five columns, and then re-retire? And then he brings in two other guys? LAME. not Jed Shaffer ~No, really, totally not. Evil twin. Yup.

It was a Super Bowl-themed one which recapped him losing in a "football match" to the Trooper and getting his ass kicked by a fossil of an ex-Minnesota Viking special ref, during the team challenge series.

I've liked most of the inductions, which is pretty good considering they're continuing to often draw from a time period where all of the well known things to induct have long since been done already on the site.
