A Fox (?) Special "Behind the Scenes"...

[Xero]

About ten years ago there was what I think was a Fox "special" on how wrestling was fake. They would do skits where a wrestler would be walking down the aisle and an old woman asked for an autograph and he ripped up her pad or something and showing the announcer calling to the ref to "wrap it up" with his pencil. (Those two stick out fairly vividly, although the woman may have been a kid.) It was sort of like those magic shows they did.

Anyway, does anyone know exactly what this was? I'm pretty sure it wasn't "The Untold Story of Professional Wrestling".

Yeah, still got this show on tape from the original airing :love:

[Xero]

LOL, that's it.

ROFL, the "Armbar" exposed. That's one huge secret!

LOL: While most of the professional wrestling world refrained from acknowledging the program, the night following its airing, Ernest "The Cat" Miller entered the ring during WCW Monday Nitro and sarcastically shouted in a melodramatic tone to the audience, "Now you know all our secrets!"

If someone has this and could upload it that would be awesome.

[Blitz]

I'll try to get it up for you later tonight.

[Xero]

You're the man. :y:

What was funny about that was that a lot of those secrets were already known... they just weren't openly talked about. Just by watching one move you can see the ring was springed. Also the microphone was obvious and makes sense. You could tell there was a mic when the ref would count falls.

I think they had one about the turnbuckles having foam inside them. Everyone knew they had foam inside them. George the Animal Steel used to rip apart and eat them.

As if the cloth padding didn't give it away...

Can't help but notice yo left out "Ready to Rumble."

...What?

[Kris P Lettus]

I actually like that movie..

The simple fact that WCW made a feature about wrestling and tried to make their product look real is awesome..

[Xero]

You know, I never realized it, but R2R seemed loosely based on the screwjob.

Except, you know, Bret never came back in a shoot in a huge-ass cage. And it was a Sharpshooter that screwed him, not a Four Post Massacre. :shifty:

Unfortuantly it did the opposite.

[Kris P Lettus]

Rose McGowan is mad hott..

Not gonna post the picture..

[KayfabeMan]

Harley Race got so much heat for that, needlessly.

It was stating the obvious, and he made a paycheck.

Good for him :y:

[Heartbreak MShake]

Comon Kris post it!!!!!!
