So yeah, any wrestling fans out there? Favourite wrestler? Best wrestling moment?
I had a lot of favourite wrestlers but I particularly loved The Undertaker (not the really old school version though). I loved it when he came back with the new image of the American Bad Ass rolling in on his motorbike with the bandana and beard and with the finishing move of The Last Ride. I can still hear his entrance music now from that main event. But my absolute favourite wrestler has got to be Mankind. He was just unreal, the images of him flying off the hell in a cell. Wow. And then that match where he faced Triple H at Royal Rumble when he came back as Cactus Jack. He poured the thumbtacks all over the ring but ended up being pedigreed onto them himself. Man I cried that night, I hated Triple H.
My favourite wrestling moment along with the ones mentioned above would probably be that image of Rikishi chokeslammed from the hell in a cell into the back of the pick up truck. The flashes of cameras that went off and the zoomed out shot is still vivid in my mind even though I would only be 9 at the time.
Ridiculous how much I loved wrestling, it's making me want to watch it again even though I just know I don't like the new crowd of wrestlers.
Over to you if there are, at all, any people who like wrestling. And it doesn't have to be WWF or WWE. Charlie posted a great video the other day from ECW I believe, man was that funny.
And here's some clips if anybody wonders what the hell I'm wittering on about:
- - One of the most iconic wrestling matches of all time and if you don't enjoy this then you never will
- The famous Rikishi moment (Kurt Angle went on to win that match which I was pissed off about)
- Triple H Pedigreeing Cactus Jack
