Stupidest looking thing in wrestling?

[Gerard]

Probably the fact that if a given wrestler is a champion he\she ALWAYS has the belt with him no matter where in the arena he\she is, probably get a bathrooom interview sometime and see triple h in the crapper with the belt slung over his shoulder. That bigshow thing with the restraining order is probably a good example of that, both him and lesnar trotting about belts over their shoulder... :wtf:

[Kane Knight]

Over his shoulder?

Hell, it's probably the only thing covering his "man" hood in that interview.

[Kane Knight]

Personally, I think it's more the concept that there are CAMERAS EVERYWHERE!

[ColdwaVer]

Personally, I think it's more the concept that there are CAMERAS EVERYWHERE!

It's amazing how the cameras capture everything except those things which it advances the plot for them to miss...

[Funky Fly]

I remember one time Eddie Guererro was IC Champ and Grandmaster Sexay was looking at the belt, which was hanging on the wall in the locker room. So they're not always with it.

[AareDub]

No the stupidest thing is not that the cameras are everywhere, its that even thought the cameras are everywhere the characters don't seem to ever know what's going on. Ok, that probably didn't come out right. For example when Trish and Lita talked backstage about their feelings for the guys, Jericho and Christian had no idea that the conversation ever took place. The same thing goes if you switch the positions. Trish didn't know they were talking about her "behind her back" she had to catch them in the act to find out. She aparently couldn't just watch tv.

Damn it, you took what I was going to say... Props

[Splaya]

big show vs rey mysterio and cole saying he has a chance to win

[jessica rocks]

stupidest thing in wrestling period is Rico. Poor guy got his break and now they are dressing him up like a clown

[FourFifty]

Here's a quick question....
Why do they keep tables and chairs under the ring?

[Gerard]

And fire extinguishers.... always the chance that a damp piece of canvas is gonna spontaniously burst into flames...http://homepage.ntlworld.com/gerald.marley/Smilies/tard.gif

[jessica rocks]

Here's a quick question....
Why do they keep tables and chairs under the ring?

well duh in case someone needs to eat something before the match

[Stickman]

what's the deal with spraying somebody with a fire extinguisher?

[Stickman]

Also, what's the deal with trying to climb out of the cage when it's quicker walking out the door?

[ColdwaVer]

Here's a quick question....
Why do they keep tables and chairs under the ring?

Why do they keep a SLEDGEHAMMER under the ring? Rings are assembles with power ratchets and preset riggings, do they think a first-rower is going to get out of hand?

Also, what's the deal with trying to climb out of the cage when it's quicker walking out the door?

I'm still waiting for the cage match where as soon as the bell rings the participants dash to either side and basically race up and over.

Why do you never see a tag match where at least one member never gets tagged in?

Why do they even let managers et al at ringside? And, has a referee ever successfully foiled manager or cornerman interference?

Why do faces seldom make saves for other faces, but if a heel is in trouble every heel in the locker room comes to his aid?

Why does Ric Flair ever bother to climb the ropes?

Why does someone like Austin or Kane, who doesn't give a crap about winning matches or being a great technical wrestler, attatch so much importance to a title?

Why does someone's music always play five seconds before they make a surprise interference?

Why do they leave the warning stickers on the ladders?

[Corkscrewed]

stupidest thing in wrestling period is Rico. Poor guy got his break and now they are dressing him up like a clown

Wrong.

Stupidest looking thing in wrestling is Goldberg.

[Dave Youell]

Why do you never see a tag match where at least one member never gets tagged in?


Wrestlemania 6, Demolition beat the Colossal connection and Andre the giant never tagged during the whole match

Sorry

[Razor Rybek]

Why is it that "The Big Show" falls/get knocked over the top rope in almost all his match's, 11 months of the year, yet strangely as Royal Rumble approachs he becomes the hardest man to eliminate?

[blake639raw]

Stupidest looking thing in wrestling?

Triple H - World Heavyweight Champion

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>When there is a 20-Man Battle Royal, why is there almost always someone eliminated within the first couple of seconds?

In Battle Royals/Royal Rumbles, why do the announcers give little of a chance to the smaller wrestlers, yet there is almost always at least one small wrestler left in the match towards the end?

Why do referees always believe the heel team when they make an illegal switch behind his back and he assumed that they tagged, yet when the faces make a clean tag behind his back the ref won't allow it?

Why is it when any heel assaults a woman then J.R. calls them sick sons of bitches, yet when Austin gives Stacy a Stunner J.R. doesn't seem to mind?

Why is it that when a ref gets knocked out,another ref only runs out part of the time?</font>

[Razor Rybek]

Why is a steel chair shot less effective in a PPV main event than it is on Raw?

[AareDub]

<font color=goldenrod>Why is it that when a ref gets knocked out,another ref only runs out part of the time?</font>

That's a damn good point. With as many times as refs get knocked out and people get screwed, you'd think by now they'd have a standard procedure. That is, of course, if they are trying to appear to be legitime, logical, and whatever.

[Fryza]

Why does Ric Flair ever bother to climb the ropes?

:D

[Kane Knight]

It's amazing how the cameras capture everything except those things which it advances the plot for them to miss...

EXACTLY my thoughts. The cameras can manage to be everywhere they're not needed. :D

[Kane Knight]

The same thing goes if you switch the positions. Trish didn't know they were talking about her "behind her back" she had to catch them in the act to find out. She aparently couldn't just watch tv.

And Jericho and Christian have no clue they're on camera when they make the bet.

And people can see the replays, but never rethink the results...

[Kane Knight]

Also, what's the deal with trying to climb out of the cage when it's quicker walking out the door?

Used to be the rules reuired you to climb out.

Nowadays, they don't.

I'd just bring a cutting torch. :cool:

[Deceit]

Why is it that when a ref gets knocked out,another ref only runs out part of the time?

Welp, Austin solved that a couple weeks ago on RAW LOL

[Disturbed316]

Why does the low blow get a DQ on Raw/Smackdown, but not ppv's?

Why did Pete Rose bother wearing that chicken costume at Wrestlemania 15? He still got the crap kicked out of him :-\

Why doesn't Flair wear a bra? If he were a woman they would be covering him up in red X's ala Mae Young at the Rumble :wtf:

[Disturbed316]

Also, Nick Patrick always does the same sell, throw arms up in the air then fall down quivering, everytime he gets hit. WAHTSUPWITDAT!?

[KayfabeMan]

*Why do you never see a tag match where at least one member
never gets tagged in?

The Rock & Mick Foley's Tag Title loss to The Hollys....

*Why do faces seldom make saves for other faces, but if a heel
is in trouble every heel in the locker room comes to his aid?

Because faces play by the rules (unless they're pissed),and believe in "taking it like a man" (not quite ala Pat Patterson)....

*Why does Ric Flair ever bother to climb the ropes?

To prove to the shithead smarks that he still can

*Why does someone like Austin or Kane,who doesn't give a crap
about winning matches or being a great technical wrestler, attatch
so much importance to a title?

So instead of carrying a compact,they can have something shiny
and masculine to check their make-up in....

The other things are the "creative license" that McMahon always
likes to throw around......that,and the mysteries of pro-wrestling;
not all of which were shown on FOX :shifty:

[Ricky]

Why do wrestlers turn up wearing their wrestling tights when they aren't even schedualed to have a match?

[DaveBrawl]

Why does instant replay only work sometimes, but other times even when the ref sees the replay the refs decision is final?

[Mister Sinister]

Why Does Hurricane Have To Carry Around S.H.I.T?

[Ricky]

And why is it that during Kane's matches, the production crew make the lights go out, a weird video to play on the screen, smoke to fill the ring, lighting bolts to hit the ring, and yet "no one knows what is causing these strange occurancies"? Why doesn't someone just go up to the production crew and say "Why did you do that?"

[123 kid]

Gotta agree with the cage thing also nearly everytime someone is "busted open" the blood is exactly the same. Another thing, when someone hits another person with a trashcan it looks a bit lame as the trashcan is blatantly aluminium!

[Mister Sinister]

Well, Last Time I checked, All Human Blood was red!

[Corkscrewed]

I thought HHH's was green.

[ColdwaVer]

Funny, I've heard him insist that it's blue. :shifty:

[123 kid]

LOL no I mean it is always the same in the way it runs from the forehead to the chin, how many times do you see someone with just a busted open nose or chin?

[Kane Knight]

Well, Last Time I checked, All Human Blood was red!

I think he meant the way the blood "comes out," so to speak. Not the color, but the appearance is always the same.

Just a guess.

[Kane Knight]

LOL no I mean it is always the same in the way it runs from the forehead to the chin, how many times do you see someone with just a busted open nose or chin?

Whoops. Didn't see you'd already answered.

[Kane Knight]

JR: A POWERFUL RIGHT TO THE CHIN! AND HE IS LITERALLY BUSTED OPEN, BAH GAWWWWWWD!

*forehead bleeds*

[Rock Bottom]

The stupidest looking thing in wrestler right now is that fuc</>king boxer with a turd on his head, LoL.

[thebitch]

LOL

[Good Ol JG]

Test always going for his pumphandle slam and never hitting it, whenever Kane lost his mask and we found out that his hair was "fake" the whole time and attached to the mask, Mark Henry ever being on TV, the tag ropes that are never even used anymore, thats all I can think of for now.

[Savio]

LOL no I mean it is always the same in the way it runs from the forehead to the chin, how many times do you see someone with just a busted open nose or chin?
Regal
--------------------
Why would Vince say he soiled him self?

I beleive triple h puts the hammer under the ring. Tables are probably for if they have a table match. But cooking trays?.......Good thing they got rid of those

[jessica rocks]

Wrong.

Stupidest looking thing in wrestling is Goldberg.

Goldberg is a close very close second

[Corkscrewed]

Um... the tag ropes are one of the few things that have been reinstated recently. At least on SD!, they're used.

[thuganomicalcrippler]

The stupidest things in wrestling are actually all the promos. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy most of them, but consider this:

Wrestler A costs Wrestler B a match on RAW, A's pissed about it. So why doesn't he say what he has to the next day? Why wait till next Monday to do it?

*activates force field in preparation for smarks jumping all over him*

[CANADIAN]

On the Ric Flair DVD Flair hits a knee off the top rope, and a cross body block.

[Stickman]

I think the two dumbest moves are the Catapult, and the Abdominal Stretch, has anybody ever tapped out to that move?

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Bossman's hanging from the Hell in a Cell.
Cena's FU ( I'm sorry, I don't think it looks any more painful then a hard bodyslam... Maybe if he did it into a Michinoku driver, instead of that little slam.)

[Innovator]

On the Ric Flair DVD Flair hits a knee off the top rope, and a cross body block.
I remember beating Harley Race for the NWA Title with a Cross Body Block

[Joe Kerr]

im lazy and didnt read the thread so if im repeating anything...oh well

How about a chair shot can knock someone out in a regular match but when it comes to a hardcore match multiple chair shots dont do shit?

[Apocolyptik1]

im lazy and didnt read the thread so if im repeating anything...oh well

How about a chair shot can knock someone out in a regular match but when it comes to a hardcore match multiple chair shots dont do shit?

Because the Hardcore wrestlers are supposed to be Hardcore and take multiple anything.

What I think is lame is that Mick Foley back in the day can take 20 or 30 chair shots and still end up some how winning the match, but nowadays 1 chair shot and he is side-lined for the rest of the program.

That and everytime Jr. see's someone get hit with a chair, he acts astonished like no one has ever been hit with one before.

"BAH GAWD, A CHAIR SHOT, THAT WAS SO BRUTAL, WHAT KINDA MAN IS (Insert Wrestler) FOR HITTING (Insert Wrestler) WITH A CHAIR. HE HAS TO BE ONE SICK MAN FOR DOING SOMETHING SO MANIACLE.

While I am on the subject with chairs, why do they always use the normal blue one? I hit my buddy in theatre with a blue fold out chair while we were wrestling with mats and it didnt even hurt him that much. They never used the other chairs that have the pad on them. I know, I know its a pad and the pad would cusion the blow, but the chairs with the pad on them weigh like 20 pounds more then the normal chair. That would hurt like hell if you used the backside of the chair where the metal is.

And those poor Spanish announcers who always seem to have their table destroyed at the PPV's while the other annoucers watch and probably giggle to themselves off camera cause it isnt their table.

Really? How long did you hold the title for? :love:

[Eunos]

Changing Albert/A-Train's wrestling attire from that Black shirt and trousers to Underwear style. At least before then he wasnt as disgusting to look at.

[big_bluto]

I got one!

HBK:
2 minutes from the end of pretty much any match.
He's bleeding....
He's exhausted....
It looks like there's no hope.....
All of a sudden he gets to his feet, staggering stupidly like his legs belong to someone carrying the Big Show, and makes it to the ropes and then.....
THUD.....
THUD.....
THUD.....
(Yes, that's the noise of HBK stamping on the mat, to let his opponent know that his 'Sweet Chin Music' is coming their way)
His opponent gradually gets up, staggering towards him.
HBK glides gracefully across the ring like a broken 3 legged gazelle and swings that foot up to connect to the chin for that 'Oh So Sweet' knockout.
It looks like it's gonna connect......

And he misses.
What are the chances?
it's not like his opponent could have possibly heard him thumping on the mat, or seen him taking the eight steps to cue up the kick, is it?

HBK gets predigreed or something else stoopid.

Every time I see it, Aaarrgghh!
Worst choreographed move in history!

[Evolution]

Why, when the Corporate Ministry had Kane down on the mat, held in place by the Acolytes and being squashed by Viscera, did they all turn and run when X-Pac came to the ring with a Kendo stick? Its X-PAC for crying out loud! Shane running, fair enough, but HHH, Chyna, Viscera, Mideon, Faarooq, Bradshaw, Paul Bearer and The Undertaker? Come On!

When the oppopnent hears Hulk huff and puff, why don't they roll out of the way of the leg drop?

How can a leg drop beat anybody?

When the heels in the ring hear the glass break, why dont they just get the hell outta town?

[Stickman]

What I think looks dumb is that in elimination matches (IE Survivor Series) it doesn't take long to pin somebody, but in regular matches that same person may take 10 minutes to pin.
