Speaking of, I thought it was funny during the Melina/Mickie match a couple weeks ago on Raw, when they went to the women's locker room and Candice Michelle was coming out of the shower in a towel......and wearing high heels. UNNACCEPTABLE! It's common knowledge that it's only believable in Porn, geez.

Canada is an evil place, and a Canadian that turns face must never admit his real hometown (Chris Benoit from Atlanta...

When the announcer tells you the time limit of a match, you know there's a 99% chance that match is going to a time limit draw.... because if it wasn't, they never would have told you the time limit, dummy! I remember that the announcers kept emphasising the "BOTH feet much touch the floor" rule in the build up and at the Royal Rumble 1995. It all became clear when Michaels had one foot touch the floor in the planned finish but was not eliminated. Thing is, they had never ever mentioned the BOTH feet rule in any of the previous Rumbles. Another Rumble rule that constantly changes.... according to the Gorilla, a wrestler who is about to enter the Rumble has two minutes (or whatever time period between draws they are doing in any particular year) to get to the ring, and if they do not hit the ring within that period, they are automatically eliminated. Hence, when Randy Savage no-showed Rumble '91, he was eliminated as soon as the next entrant emerged. However, in later Rumbles, guys have been attacked on the way to the ring and re-entered the match 5/10 minutes later than they were supposed to (Owen Hart 1998, Steve Austin 2001). |

In WCW they tended to announce time limits more often, but WWE only really bothered when a time limit draw was coming up.

WCW would also announce the amount of time remaining throughout the match, which I found pretty annoying.
Gary Capetta: "One minute remaining, one minute remaining in this matchup." WCW did lay it on heavy with the time limit draws though, a lot more so than WWE. |

I remember Ricky Steamboat vs Demolition Smash on the WWF World Tour '91 show and Ricky's arm dropped three times in a sleeper, but stayed up on the fourth drop. The commentators explained that the referee must have "given him another chance." A lame explanation, but....

some cliches we accept as normal
Despite not knowing any English or customs due to his primitive ways, Umaga knows to lay on top of a guy for a count of three after beating him down.
Women of wrestling are always attracted to the owner of the company, no matter what they look like (Dusty for example) Spanish Announce Table bumps. Women in wrestling have no last names. All professions, vocations and trades secretly have the ability to wrestle. Garbage man? Natural catch-as-catch-can ability. Plumber? Dropkicks are really your business. It just comes naturally. And we're foolish to assume someone who trained in an entirely unrelated profession wouldn't have ring skills. Clearly. Everything hurts more when you bounce off the ropes first. It's not unusual to see a guy go from revolutionist to runway model to travel agent inside one year. Putting tape on your thumb makes a normally brittle limb LETHAL. Silliness like strangling the breath from your opponent with a sleeper or chinlock can't FINISH anyone, but doing a karate chop to the stomach after dancing is unbeatable. No one learns how to fall. They just naturally land in a manner that doesn't cause permanent injury. Other countries outside the U.S. don't have cities. Non-Americans are represented only by their nation's name. Referees suffer from the same medical calamity as Mr. Glass in Unbreakable. If you're over 6'5", and are practically unstoppable, chances are you *really* have a nonsensical fear of caskets or snakes. Publicly traded companies encourage their C.E.O.'s to ram people's faces into their ass and have on-camera kinky sex with female employees. If you really hate a guy, you give him an airplane spin or bodyslam. Guns & knives never taught anyone a lesson. Inflicting grievous bodily harm or destroying property is only deplorable if someone unpopular is doing it. When wrestling in your hometown the chances of being humiliated increase with every reference to that fact. |

The fact that when anyone does a super kick we are supposed to believe the noise that occurs is the foot hitting the face, not hand slapping thigh.

During Empty Arena matches it is imperative you put cameras facing towards the floor on pallets

Other places outside the US (with the exceptionr of Indian reserves) are uncivilized and wear the native garb of their country to wrestle (kilts, war paint etc.)

You can only say "Nigger" on-air if you're Vince McMahon and are talking to John Cena.

Here's another one...
that given the size of the arenas that wrestling takes place in the best place to keep ladders, trash cans, fire estinguishers, etc is under the ring. |
