The 9 Most Unintentionally Depressing Pro Wrestling Gimmicks...
 
via Cracked.com

http://www.cracked.com/article_18918...-gimmicks.html

Just got done reading it and thought it was worth posting here for pot-shot purposes.

Volare 12-13-2010 08:22 AM

Oz made the list, yes!!

The Ravishing One 12-13-2010 09:37 AM

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.

Ol Dirty Dastard 12-13-2010 10:00 AM

It's called wrestlecrap.

The Ravishing One 12-13-2010 10:02 AM

That it is!

whiteyford 12-13-2010 10:05 AM

Arachnaman??? Wow...just wow.

Razzamajazz 12-13-2010 10:07 AM

how is hornswoggle depressing?

midgets are funny and he has that cheery irish music

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

Sixx 12-13-2010 11:54 AM

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

Sixx 12-13-2010 11:55 AM

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.

SlickyTrickyDamon 12-13-2010 02:07 PM

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."

BizarroKing 12-13-2010 04:23 PM

These aren't depressing so much as silly.

Anybody Thrilla 12-13-2010 05:15 PM

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.

BigDaddyCool 12-13-2010 05:21 PM

Cracked is stupid.

Anyone agree with these?

They always use various numbers for theit top lists.

Tom Guycott 12-13-2010 08:50 PM

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.

Vastardikai 12-14-2010 06:33 AM

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.

The Naitch 12-14-2010 11:16 PM

surprised they didn't mention Shockmaster

The Naitch 12-14-2010 11:17 PM
