Things that make you go... ugh!

Since we have discussed wrestlers that were shit. What else in wrestling in general make you go 'Ugh'. It can be anything you want.

 

So I am going with this cunt.

If you even needed a history lesson this bastard I will divulge. Basically around October 1990 in the push for the 4th Annual Survivor Series PPV, a giant egg began appearing at the TV tapings. The announcers on the syndicated shows went on about this egg saying it was going to hatch at the Survivors show. There was actually alot of hype what actually was inside the egg. There were rumors that it could be King Kong Bundy apparently and all sorts of other bollocks in the run up to the show. To give Vince and lads there credit this actually did have some mystique to it. WWF really hyped the fuck out this bastard egg so at the time it did have shit loads of people talking. WWF did not really disappoint much when it came to debuting things so chances were high that this egg could be something good.

 

Come the PPV, we have got a lull among the main event and the undercard so it's time for that big 'ole egg to hatch. To observe the scene 'on assignment' is the master of ceremonies, Pamela Paulshock's sugar-daddy and grilled burger specialist, Mean Gene Okerlund. Poor Gene. Anyway, Mean Gene in that awesome voice of his, hype the god knows what out of that egg. He speculates wildly about what it could be in the egg. "Is it a Dinosaur?" Gene opines. It would be fucking amazing if it was, and I would never be typing this. He also suggests it could balloons or even the Playmate of the month. Then the big moment. People at home, bracing themselves and all the people in arena are at a knifes-edge to see what on earth this fucker in the egg is. Then... BAMMMMM!

 

A GIANT TURKEY. A GIANT GODDAMN FUCKING TURKEY. A STUPID, 'WACKY' ABSOLUTELY SHITE TURKEY... Mean Gene in his infinite wisdom decides to try to get a promo out of the bloody thing. "Don't tell me, your the Gobbledy Gooker!" says Gene. Then we get some music and The Gooker and Gene head to the ring. Gene doesn't want fuck all to do with this, but the Gooker insists, almost forcing Gene to get in the ring. The crowd... well the crowd shit on this, from a great height. They boo the poor sod out of the building. Meanwhile Gorilla Monsoon and Rowdy Roddy Piper have to sit there and bless their hearts they try, they really try. Piper sounds like the sight of the Gooker made him do several lines and try and fuck off mentally to another planet. "LOOK AT THE KIDS, THEY LOVE HIM!!!!" screams Piper, several times in fact, while Kevin Dunn shouts at directors and cameramen to try to find someone who vaguely give a shit. Nobody does because of...

 

1) They do not give a toss and...

2) Its Connecticut, who have always been a wank crowd.

 

The Gooker appeared a few more times in 1990. It danced with Mike McGuirk and it did a promo with Koko B. Ware (the poor lad) and then he fucked off. He came back here and there, but it was ironic by then. The man in the costume who had to put up with this bollocks. Hector Guerrero, the poor sap. He was a damn good wrestler in his day Hector, and yet he is remembered for LazerTron and THIS. In retrospect, this might have been genius on Vince McMahon's part. There was no actual false advertising on his part, they never actually confirmed what was coming out of the egg. Logic suggests when an egg hatches, a big bloody chicken is what you had expect. How smart is Vince? I bet a small portion of people bought this PPV to see the egg hatch. Were they disappointed? Yes, but still, they said an egg would hatch. That was all they said. He is mental at times Vince.

 

Just imagine the crowd if it had been balloons?

The title of this thread looks like it should be the subtitle to the "what do you wank over" thread.

 

But, I'll go with this:

From a small window of time in which he was a legitimate contender for being next big thing and a potential WWE talent, to a fat shithair with a cock on his face and a fucking great knife round Scott Steiner's throat.

 

Depressing if you were once a fan of his, and a probable career-killer in how hard it is to make you a fan of his again. Also one of the few occasions where the talent and creative both seem to have given in simultaneously but both have to needlessly plough on to justify it all. A desperately bleak run, and one of the finest examples (but sadly, one of many) of TNA's downright dangerous ability to fucking murder some real talents.

Couldn't agree more, NEWM. Regardless of what people say now, he really was on the verge of super stardom in the mid-00s.

 

Going back and seeing his performances in matches against Sabu, Styles (Final Destination and Turning Point) and the three-ways and how much fanfare and momentum he once had is depressing when comparing it to his current status. I stopped watching TNA after Bound For Glory 2006 so I still hold Joe in quite high regard.

 

It's an utter shame he didn't become the star it once appeared he would, though.

After watching the first 40 minutes of this week's impact wrestling, Mike Tenay and Tazz as commentators. I haven't really watched TNA since the shambles of the Victory Road main event last year, but I don't remember these two justifying and talking through EVERYFUCKINGTHING that was happening.

The egg was a mad idea from concept-stage really. Let's say it was some huge star signing like Flair or Sting or The Undertaker debuting that way. The (fair) question would be just what in the fuck they were doing in an egg for the last four weeks. And this is back when they would have to go to a decent length to explain it.

 

In a roundabout sort of way, it had so be some sort of egg-dweller. Robin Williams dressed as Mork would have been better.

 

Coming out of an egg and not explaining it in any reasonable manner is something that cunt Jericho would do these days, in some mess of some sort of ironic reference and callback that only internet fans would dream up after the event.

What I hate in wrestling is how they build a storyline and then decide to drop it with no explanation.

An example of this is the anonymous general manager. It seemed like months that that story line played out and then it was dropped with no one knowing who the fuck it was. Surely when they have these ideas they must have an idea where they think this storyline is going to end.

The thing that makes me groan the most is when people video their opinions of a show or PPV and then post them on YouTube, as though they matter.

Get over yourself. I don't mind reading a bunch of people share opinions in a forum setting, fine. But to stick your pasty face on a vid labelled "my thoughts on Genesis" or whatever... I really don't give a fuck about your throughts, much less want to hear your squalkings. Best of all are those that get really animated and sweary about it. Or better yet, label their thoughts on a particular wrestler or incident as a "shoot" as though they are in the business. They're the worst breed of sad act, and I hate them most because the existence of wrestling fans like that makes everyone else think we're all like that.

 

Oh, and cunts who take their replica belts to shows. You fucking clowns.

As much as I love the Ernest Miller/Brodus Clay theme, I hate it when commentators say "Somebody better call his momma!" as though it's a joke no-one's thought of saying before. In most cases, they say it a minute after someone else on their commentary team has blurted it out. Worse still is when an individual says it more than once in the typical Brodus match which, let's face it, could be missed on a piss break. I think it's going to top Tazz's annoying as shit Brock Lesnar intro of "Welp, here comes the pain!".

 

While I'm at it, fuck Tazz, too. His commentary, his stupid laugh and the fact that he's named after a vocally-challenged cartoon character who still has superior talking skills than that Easyjet with legs. Just fuck off, you Tango-slapped dumpling.

Well said Air Raid. Though, I must say, I sort of love to hate those Youtube reviewers. I'll watch the odd two minutes of one now and again just to turn my nose up, laugh and call them a sad cunt while peering behind them to look at the dreadful state of their walls/shelves/room. I don't pretend I'm a better person than a lot of people, but I know I do a better job at life than those daft pricks, and that makes me feel great.
