Little things you mark for.

I alwalys love in TLC/ladder matches, right before someone does something really crazy, that little moment when both guys are like "OH F**K THIS IS ACTUALLY GOING TO HAPPEN." I've never been sure how much of that is fake/real.

I would figure that's pretty real. It's got to be pretty scary standing on top of a ladder in front of a huge crowd, getting ready to do a big flip 15 feet down onto a table.

Even worse looking up at the guy about to land on you, heh.

it must take so much willpower to just sit there and not move out of the way...

Oooooh, good one,

The fact that Cole is such a weakling that never stands up to anyone from original DX, through Cena buttsecks, and now JBL barrages of Shut-Ups and name calling

I await a killer Maggle heel turn.

[Rodney the Piper]

i agree totally with the heal going over clean...and ill throw in that i mark when a guy goes to pin their opponent when said opponent is close to the ropes, and the guy going for the pin hooks the leg CLOSEST to the rope.

Yes! I hate it when they hook the other leg and leave the other one to be put on the bottom rope.

Wrestlers busting out vintage ring attire. I marked like hell when Jericho wore his Lionheart gear at the first One Night Stand, and the couple times RVD wore one of his old ECW singlets last year.

[The F'N Captain]

Love the "abused heel turns on his manager/tag partner/boss" set-up. Best of all time STILL remains Virgil and Dibiase.

Also when a face really,truly hits his finisher "FROM OUT OF NOWHERE!" DDP made me mark so many times with the 'Cutter.

["Sweet & Sour" ImSoFudginGreat]

When a heel beats a face at his own game (sorta like the "clean" win thing MGH said)

[Moonwalkin' Capt. Crow]

Ric Flair-esque knife edge chops!

Cody Rhodes' entrance.


Love it!!

An upset finish. Remember when The Hurricane beat Triple H? Or how about Shelton Benjamin beating Trips like three or four times in a row.

I've always enjoyed watching the Royal Rumble match and cheering on the guys that we all know have no chance in hell of winning, yet for some reason stay in the match for obscene amounts of time. Kane is always a good example of this, it seems like he is always in it right around the 10-14 mark, and is built to be the first real "threat" of the match. You know he'll never win... but it's always fun to cheer him on anyway.

the ric flair belly flop face plant oh im hurt but it hurt so bad it took a while for my body to establish the pain move.

or whatever its called
i love it
everytime

[PSJ]

Ah, I loves me some Flair Flop too man.

Really dumb un-kayfabe interaction like Andres choke on Bob Ueker, The Rocks "Somebody got a haaaaaiiiircuuut" line with The Big Show, etc etc etc


...but most of all..... freakin' Paul E gets me every fn time.

...honostly that was most likely a work but Jeebus that dude just gets me ready to buy whatever hes sellin.

[bindergang]

I love when a new guy or someone their building a new character for, no sells a move and wrecks their opponent.

I'm not talking when Hogan would hulk up. I'm talking something like, in Goldberg's first match, Hugh Morrus hits his finisher, match should be over, Goldberg pops right up, does a little backflip and BOOM! I often find myself watching the match and I get the same feeling every time. Completely awesome.

[The Cool Pup]

When heels or faces react to the crowd. One of the reasons The Rock is one of my all-time favorites is because he did that like no other. I also love it when wrestlers acknowledge real events and often even break kayfabe for a promo; once again, The Rock is legendary on the mic for such things like that.

The inclusion of classic heel tactics I also mark for, the little stuff like going out of the ring to "rest", like that as one example.

Haha, ditto.

[The Ichi]

Catching a sign in the crowd that's actually very witty.

Like trying to find a solar eclipse these days, but still.
