The People’s Splash Mountain

Posted: July 6, 2011 by Keith Stone in The Rock, wrestling, WWF

The Rock does everything better than a normal human being. He sings better. He fucks better. He even poses for pictures on theme park rides better. I always go for the thumbs up when I see the camera but you don’t become the People’s Champion by giving a thumbs up. The guy in the back wants no part of it. The Rock should slap him in the face.

Wrestling is huge in Japan, so it’s time for the first Japanese Wrestling Video of the Week. Nobody messes with Japanese wrestling legend Antonio Inoki. When a clown named the Great Antonio decided to play around in the ring, Inoki showed him who’s boss. THAT’S HOW THEY DO IT IN JAPAN.

When he was courting Booker T to be his tag team partner, there wasn’t anything Goldust wouldn’t do. So while Booker went to 7-11 to get his ritual pre-match Slurpee and spend time with some of his young fans, Goldust was busy putting together an “elaborate disguise” to fit in without attracting attention, sucka. I can’t even tell it’s Goldust. He’s like a ghetto Mrs. Doubtfire and the Spree jersey and visor are a nice touch. Gotta love JR at the end. “He’s goofier than a pet coon!” Who wouldn’t want a bite of Goldust’s wiener?

I’ve heard from the millions (AND MILLIONS!) It’s time to bring the Wrestling Video of the Week back. In 2001, Shane McMahon faced off against the Big Show in a Last Man Standing match. Despite some great dance moves, Shane was giving up about 300 pounds on Show. It’s kind of a disadvantage in a Last Man Standing match. There was only one way to overcome it as Shane climbed the Titantron and took to the friendly skies to defeat Show with a little assistance from Test and a camera stand.

RIP Randy Savage

Randy “Macho Man” Savage passed away today after a car crash caused by a heart attack. He was one of the greatest and most unique wrestlers of all-time. The outfits. The voice. The catchphrases. The flying elbow off the top rope. The Pomp and Circumstance entrance music. Miss Elizabeth. Slim Jims. Macho Man’s match against Ricky Steamboat at WrestleMania III is one of the best in history. I started following wrestling just as he was leaving the WWF but I remember really enjoying his falls count anywhere match against Crush at WrestleMania X at the Garden. There will never be anyone like him. Oh yeah!
