Vamp Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Wrestling may as well stop there, it's never going to reach that brilliance again. And I really do mean that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snitsky's back acne Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 In the late 70s the BBC had a show where ordinary people try to do a particular job. In this episode a teacher tries to become a pro wrestler. It turns out it's not all fun and games. The punchline is that although in the show Max Crabtree picks the guys opponent, it was actually producer Esther Rantzen who chose him. She looked at some pictures of wrestlers and picked the one who looked smallest and least like to cause serious damage.  The man she picked was John Naylor.  From Wigan.   Great find.

No use for a nick Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Maybe not as awesome as the short CMLL clip, but quite awesome in its own right. Â For all the puroresu/anime/trashmovies aficionados. If you love all three then all the better. Â Here you are: Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Ronnie Posted September 28, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted September 28, 2012 I checked the thread and this was posted in 2007 and 2010, but I bet loads of people won't have seen it so think I can probably get away with it once more, 505 pages in.

Mr Lawrence Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 (edited) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HW2ERes8__Y...feature=related - Jim Duggan vs. Iron Sheik  This is a great and very heated debut especally considering the time of it, with blood and that. I remember watching this on a thursday night on sky many a moon ago.

Baz Windham Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Saw this on the Botchamania site, , pretty good stuff, hope it's not been posted before. Also the latest Botchamania uses the Granstand theme at one point and it works brilliantly! Use it again please Maffew, love it when he uses British TV themes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baz Windham Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 I tend to forget about it and then watch a few in one go, I only watch the mainstream stuff on it though. It's a good laugh to fill a bit of time. I've enjoyed reading Maffew's IYH reviews this morning too, there was some terrible stuff I'd forgotten/didn't know.

Paid Members Statto Posted September 30, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted September 30, 2012 I tend to forget about it and then watch a few in one go, I only watch the mainstream stuff on it though. Â Unless I've misintepreted your comment, I'm completely the opposite. He's now done so many of the things that all the really funny WWF/WCW/TNA etc. stuff has been done, so the content from there tends to be "Here's a clothesline from Raw last week that wasn't 100% crisp, lol." Â On the flipside, I could spend hours giggling at skinny Jeff Hardy wannabes fuck-up moves they have no right to be attempting in their local armory on a Saturday night.
