Why 9? why not make it a top 10? better yet, with all the crazy things in wrestling's past a top 100 could be achieved.

Those articles take a while to get done. That's why.

I like the cracked.com top lists, but I think this would make more sense with "embarassing" rather than "depressing".

I mean, how could The Teh-tay ever depress someone?

Pure joy in bandages.

How much longer could 10 take than 9? This is just lazy.

How can they mention a clip of Ms Congeniality and then not even mention that she is Lita? Or Mention Xanta Claws and then not say he is Balls Mahoney?

This was just done by somebody who took a cursory look at Wrestlecrap.com and went "Sure I can write a stupid list about this."

These aren't depressing so much as silly.

They also mentioned that people on Raw had been hearing about the egg for the Gooker. Raw didn't debut until 3 years after that.

Wait, why the fuck do I have to beat Arachnaman to increase my ranking? He's not even in the forums!

Also, funny how people are shitting on a satirical piece on a humor website for being "lazy". It's just jokes, people.

The Eugene one IS kind of depressing.

Think about it, Nick Dinsmore will NEVER live that gimmick down.

Dunno, knowing TNA they are more than likely to would have repackaged him as a professor.
