Hall of Fame Ceremony, 4/4

[Xerzes]

On in a few minutes. What're the odds we see anybody's speeches except Austin?

[Xero]

I'm assuming we're going to get The Funks, Steamboat and Austin. If there's time possibly Fink (since it should be relatively short).

[Xerzes]

Aaand we're on.

[The Gold Standard]

I saw the other ones. Screech and I were streaming them during our show

[Xero]

Who did they show on WWE.com?

[The Gold Standard]

does anyone else feel bad for the other hall of famers not getting on tv

[The Gold Standard]

everyone but Austin and Steamboat

[Zeeboe]

I haven't watched wrestling in a while....that Todd guy sucks.....Jerry Lawler, now he's cool. I'm reading his book right now......Ric Flair, another cool one. I hope the show is mostly overall about the legends, and they keep the little boys like Todd Grassass or whatever his name is off the show.....wow, Shane McMahon looks old....haha, Triple H looks like he's on PMS......Steph still looks hot.....Ricky Steamboat....I watched him at a house show once when they had him actually dressed as a dragon. Good times.....Randy Savage.....I wish they'd put him in the HOF....Flair and Steamboat....classic match.

[Xerzes]

Flair, escorted by some hooker. Good for him.

[Stealth-Icon]

wwwwwoooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[Xerzes]

Huh. Savage being mentioned again, and having it acknowledged that he was in one of the greatest matches ever.

[Xerzes]

There is totally a noose in the ring with Ali. What the shit?

[Zeeboe]

Holy cow, Ron Simmons looks old....man, a lot of them do. It has been a while since I watched wrestling. (Almost a year to be exact, but a REALLY long time since I've seen the old lions.)

Anyhow, I hope HTM will be on soon.

[Xerzes]

Ric Flair thinks the Von Erichs loved ring rats. I'm pretty sure he'd know.

[Zeeboe]

No disrespect intended.....but come on Ric, get to it.....okay, thank you....

[Stealth-Icon]

WOW kelly kelly

[Stealth-Icon]

What....another commercial

[FourFifty]

DDP was in the house tonight.

[Zeeboe]

Another commerical? Man, this show runs slower then the Oscars.

[The Gold Standard]

These commercials are ridiculous

[Xerzes]

So who's inducting "too many commercials" into the hall of fame?

[Zeeboe]

Whoa, Sgt. Slaughter is bald.....dang.

[Loose Cannon]

did they just make Steamboat blow HHH there?

[Stealth-Icon]

lol

[Loose Cannon]

lol I love how they go kayfabe all of a sudden

[The Gold Standard]

lol I love how they go kayfabe all of a sudden

They all do that if they have a match it seems.

[screech]

YAY! More video packages!

[The Gold Standard]

I love the Taker HBK video packages though

[screech]

Yeah they are awesome. But I can only watch them so many times in 48 hours.

[screech]

What a preview.

[Loose Cannon]

WTF was that? they didn't even show a finish

[Stealth-Icon]

foreshadowing of tomorrow. 16-0-1

[Loose Cannon]

how to stall 101 right here

[Loose Cannon]

No Chance in Hell makes me mark out every time

[shadowfoxrz]

vinny mac!!!!!!!!!! yay

[Stealth-Icon]

Oh, this seems like a good spot for another commercial

[screech]

This is ridiculous

[Zeeboe]

My gosh, they are showing a lot of commericals!

[shadowfoxrz]

They could be moving a little fast. Ooooooooooooorrr USA needs the MONAAAAAAAYYYY :shifty:

[Zeeboe]

Mickey Rourke! Nice. I can't wait for The Wrestler come out on blu-ray, and watch that baby again.

[Stealth-Icon]

Stephanie looking very hot again!!

[Loose Cannon]

ugh, the WHAT chants.

[screech]

BAH GAWD

[shadowfoxrz]

Number 1 on the 10 commandments of Stone Cold Steve Austin is............

1) If it can be driven with a license.... Drive it to the ring :shifty:

[Stealth-Icon]

great song. Cult of personality

[shadowfoxrz]

I LOVE THIS PROMO......CULT OF PERSONALITY.......SWEEEEEEEEEET :D:D

[Stealth-Icon]

i bet we go to a commercial before he speaks

[Zeeboe]

Ahh, Stone Cold Steve Austin....wow. My gosh, I hated him so much back in 97' when he feuded with Bret Hart. lol. But man, those were some fun days for me. I loved the feud he had with the Hitman. Austin was I think my favorite heel to hate, but then I ended up becoming a fan of his.

He deserves to be in the HOF, no doubt....

STUPID COMMERCIALS! JESUS!.......Legends of Wrestlemania....I wish I could play that....sucks it ain't out on PS2.....hey, Ozzy....I'm glad he's still around.

[Stealth-Icon]

oh what a shock!

[shadowfoxrz]

What do you know................more commercials :nono:

[screech]

These are such weird commercials, too (to have during WWE).

[shadowfoxrz]

These are such weird commercials, too (to have during WWE).

Yeah i doubt the mostly male audience needs the CrunchlessAbs. Unless Kane86 needs it :shifty: jk :D:D:D

[Zeeboe]

Austin still looks great. Damn shame he had to retire, and hell, in the wrestling business, he retired really young.

[screech]

STONE COLD! STONE COLD! STONE COLD!

[Xerzes]

Huh. Goatee grew back already.

[Stealth-Icon]

OOOOOOOhhhhhhh Kelly kelly again.....I love when her puppies jiggle.

[Loose Cannon]

kind of odd watchng him in a formal setting like this. like I expected him to come out in jean shorts and a tee

[mike adamle]

looks just like he did when he wrestled haha

[shadowfoxrz]

Austin still looks great. Damn shame he had to retire, and hell, in the wrestling business, he retired really young.

A lot of unfourtunte injuries plauged Austin. Hell Yeah he could still go.

[Stealth-Icon]

break out the beer

[screech]

GOD that crowd is AMAZING

[The Gold Standard]

Holy shit. AUSTIN!!

[Stealth-Icon]

THANK YOU AUSTIN

[screech]

LOL

[Stealth-Icon]

Sucks for Men's Warehouse right about now....haha

[shadowfoxrz]

He's gunna lose it!

[Loose Cannon]

He's gunna lose it!

lol

[Zeeboe]

Errr, I wish that little group of dumb-asses will stop saying "What", Jesus.....you came to see the man, let him talk.

[Triple Naitch]

Men's Warehouse....nice :y:

[shadowfoxrz]

Men's Warehouse....nice :y:

According to Austin :n::n: That means he will find that store and most likely drive sumtin ito it :shifty:

[Juan]

ONE MORE MATCH

[Zeeboe]

Austin makes me proud to be a Texan. I grew up in a small town, and met a lot of rednecks like him. lol. Austin did a great a job of representing the Lone Star State.

[Stealth-Icon]

it will be next year at WM 26 against George Zimmer....founder of Men's Warehouse

[screech]

ONE MORE MATCH

[shadowfoxrz]

Austin was the epitamy(spelling?bad i know :) ) of my upbringing with WWF/WWE

[screech]

YES!!!

[Triple Naitch]

Aww...he totally won't be able to return that suit now.

[Zeeboe]

I'd to see one more Stone Cold match, especially if it was against Hogan.

Anyhow, sucks Austin is pretty much ignoring the crowd's request.....and really, he's been away from wrestling for a while, and trying to get into the movies business, with respect. So nothing new in regards of that.

I really wish Stone Cold would wrestle one more time, but I doubt he wants to end up in a wheelchair for the rest of his life.

[shadowfoxrz]

They should have let him read some of his speech, i would have loved to of heard it......DAMN THOSE COMMERCIALS!!!!!

[Loose Cannon]

STUNNER TO KELLY KELLY!!!

[Stealth-Icon]

Kelly kelly for the third time...what a night.

[Loose Cannon]

STUNNER TO THE CONFETTI

[screech]

Sharing a Steve-weiser = passing the torch?

[Xerzes]

Sharing a beer with the beer-throwing guy. Good stuff.

[Zeeboe]

That's it? Damn. I was hoping to see HTM induct Koko B. Ware.....guess I'll have to watch that later on you tube or wwe.com.

Pretty crappy show overall I have to say. Too many damn commericals.

[The Gold Standard]

Sharing a Steve-weiser = passing the torch?

That's what I thought. We may not like it, but Steve has just passed the torch to John Cena

[Zeeboe]

What's this weird movie on USA now?....ahhh, The Scorpion King....yeah....*changes channel*

[shadowfoxrz]

That's what I thought. We may not like it, but Steve has just passed the torch to John Cena

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo :(

[Xerzes]

Wait, that was Cena? Damnit.

[Zeeboe]

John Cena sucks. He's one of the reasons why I don't watch the WEEEE now.....I pity the kids and teens of today....especially since they actually think Cena is cool.


Cena is crap, and so is his gimmick.

[shadowfoxrz]

Im calling it a night......I hope Mania goes well............GO HBK! :D

[shadowfoxrz]

The first inductie to the Class Of 2010.................................MANTAUR :shifty:

[Juan]

John Cena sucks. He's one of the reasons why I don't watch the WEEEE now.....I pity the kids and teens of today....especially since they actually think Cena is cool.

That's a pretty narrow minded way to look at it. Back when I was a kid, Hogan was the coolest thing ever.

[Jeritron]

I'm sure there are older people who grew up Billy Graham, or Flair marks and said the same thing about Austin.

Not saying Cena is in that class, but these sentiments seem to be generational.

[Zeeboe]

That's a pretty narrow minded way to look at it. Back when I was a kid, Hogan was the coolest thing ever.

Hogan was cool though. He still is. :) Why I think that you may ask? Well, for starters, he was a white man who actually acted like a white man. Second, he was a good role model unlike Cena he makes it seem like being a gangsta is a good thing.

[Zeeboe]

I'm sure there are older people who grew up Billy Graham, or Flair marks and said the same thing about Austin.

Not saying Cena is in that class, but these sentiments seem to be generational.

Yeah, maybe that is a sign of me getting old. Heck, I work with pre-teens and teens sometimes, and they tell me that they think Korn is old, and I remember when I was at that age, and Korn was like the band.

Same goes for Shaq of the NBA. He was the man way back when, now all these kids think he's old. Heck, I recall when he first joined the NBA and was just a rookie.

Yes, indeed, I am getting older. *drinks to that*

Good-night fellas.

[FourFifty]

Is there a stream or a youtube of the Hall of Fame yet?

[Corndad]

I try to not judge until I've seen the full uncut ceremony on the Mania DVD and I know it may have been the constant commercials but it just kinda underwhelmed me this year. I didn't get to see the ones on the Website so will hold my thoughts on them but the way edited together for the hour length really doesn't do it justice.

[FourFifty]

Uncut? Nope, it'll be edited. Dory Funk Jr. dropped the F bomb (said WWF) and talked about WM26.

[James Steele]

http://www.wwe.com/shows/wrestlemania/videos/hof/?cid=2009EP-00

They have clips and the video packages up at the above link.

[FourFifty]

Thanks James, but my main concern is "Hey, can I find myself there...."

[Krimzon7]

I'm going to watch this now, I just got back from watching Fast and Furious...WHAT A KICK ASS MOVIE!!!

[St. Jimmy]

I just watched this, it was pretty fantastic. Kinda surprised about what Austin said about pretty much hanging it up, and when he handed Cena that beer at the end I kinda cringed and was like "oh god he's passing the torch". Everything else about it was great. The Funks and the Von Erichs segments were gold. Micheal Hayes is still the fucking man.

[KaliKot]

Dammit, I knew Cena was gonna win after Austin passed the beer to him
