The Wrestling Thread

I think I'll go get a couple of slim jims and play WWF Royal Rumble on the Genesis tonight.

wish i could play that with you. i was thinking of the same thing..

Macho Man Randy Savage was the reason I loved wrestling. Really, really sucks that he's gone now.

[the King]

The Stephanie McMahon/Macho Man thing is just a rumor. There is no evidence that anything actually happened between the two.



Tribute from the WWE(F)

Randy's death has been nothing but a punchline on ESPN. Not real classy.

I don't think I've ever seen that cover before. Do you happen to know what issue number that is?

They mentioned that on the PW Torch podcast. Kind of annoying, a lot of people have no respect for the dead these days. That's probably the main reason I stopped watching South Park

I need to check out that podcast.

But it really isn't fair to compare SportsCenter to South Park. NOTHING is untouchable for Matt and Trey. SC is supposed to be news with a little humor, but they gave little dignity to Randy. But it probably shouldn't come as a surprise as the parent company doesn't own the WWE. Honestly, almost every day SC mentions "Tiger Woods" but never mentions who is actually winning golf tournaments.

Yeah, I understand South Park makes fun of everything. I don't hate the show for that, but I came to realize that they would cross some lines that I wasn't comfortable with. So I realized I had come to a point where the show just wasn't for me anymore, but I still remember some episodes fondly from back when I was a fan

It'll be interesting to see the WWE's reaction. People are expecting some kind of tribute, but it's long been rumored there was bad blood between Macho Man and Vince. Hopefully, that hatchet was buried or he'll simply realize that sometimes putting aside personal grudges is the right thing to do

Well there was nothing about it on Smackdown. Maybe at the PPV on Sunday or Monday's Raw. But I'd think they would have done it on Smackdown if they did. They put together an entire show for Chris Benoit in one day before they knew the horrible details of it all.
