E: what the hell is going on in the WWE :psyduck:

Bray Wyatt was originally a Deep South cult leader with a family of hillbillies and an obsession with a Sister Abigail who it was implied had raised him. During a match with Matt Hardy, who had been possessed by a milleniums-old entity named Damascus, at the Hardy Compound Bray was thrown into the Lake of Resurrection which cleansed him of evil. He resurfaced as a kid's show host in a world of puppets who would turn into a horror-movie creature known as the Fiend. During a match with Braun Strowman where they fought in a swamp Sister Abigail appeared in the form of Alexa Bliss as Braun had a crush on her. The Fiend's obsession with Alexa would continue as he began to stalk her and eventually sexually assaulted her by sticking his fingers into her mouth. This infected Alexa with a similar demonic presence and she became the Fiend's loyal admirer. She would then start to feud with Randy Orton with a series of otherworldly assaults including throwing a fireball in his face and making him choke up poison. Randy and Alexa are now having a match at the next PPV. I hope this answers your question :)

I love that AEW spent weeks setting up an exploding barbed wire deathmatch for their world title PPV main event, which ended up being mostly smoke and mirrors, and then two weeks later in a free TV main event with nothing specifically on the line an Actual Dentist and Kobra Moon decided to summon the ghost of the Necro Butcher in order to determine exactly how much blood you can lose without requiring medical assistance

my favorite part of that mst3k movie is that he's in the middle of his investigation of a vampire conspiracy but he's still like "ok well i will be at the arena tonight" then he wrestles a wolfman or something

My favorite part of that MST3K movie is that other than the title, there is zero implication in the first half of the movie that there's a wrestler in it. It's just a bunch of weird poo poo with vampire women. So after the episode has hit the halfway point, El Santo finally just shows up at this guy's house in full costume with zero fanfare. And Crow's absolutely cackles over it.

Prokhor Zakharov posted:

There's a very slim chance it's not given that impostors were always willing to try and game a few bucks out of rural theaters, but given the production quality it's almost certainly the man himself

Yeah, it was a legit El Santo movie. It was the final MST3K episode for TV's Frank and his actor was a huge fan of ridiculous lucha movies, so they decided to go with that one.

Yeah, I'm hamming it a little - the actual measure of how much you can lose in one go is likely Eddie Guerrero turning most of the ring red at Judgement Day 2004. I specifically remember that one as the only time I've been watching wrestling in a bar, the camera cuts away to give Eddie time to blade, and where it then cuts back a bunch of people who weren't there to watch wrestling just stopped in mid-sentence.

Honourable mention is also given to the MMA fight that got ruled a no contest after the fighters started cartoonishly slipping and sliding around on their own blood. Good times all round.

I remember showing South Park to my friends in highschool after seeing the first episode and recording it to VHS, it was on SBS, the more diverse TV station no one else watched because white boring suburban, it blew their minds. I used to record ABC rage all the time and we'd hang out and play the last nights rage on Saturday or Sunday.

bull nakano's top rope leg-drop is the only move in wrestling that is entirely physically incomprehensible; it is clearly not possible for a human being to jump from a fifteen-foot cage and land flat on their rear end without spending a further six months removing chunks of pelvic bone from what remains of their taint

my one true regret is not being born early enough to marry this terrifying japanese woman and then spending the rest of our days playing golf and failing cocaine tests

Aja Kong is my favourite wrestler of all time. Stylish gear, garish face paint, cool theme song(s), all her moves look like murder, does a lot of taunts. Everything I like about wrestling in one person. Her legs don't work anymore but I still think she's the best

Also reminded of one of my favourite rarely-mentioned wrestling nonsense moments, where Nakano and Alundra Blayze have a bike-vs-bike match at Hog Wild '96 at Sturgis, where the winner gets to destroy the loser's motorcycle. Alundra rides in on her Harley, while Sonny Onoo rides in a Honda that definitely belongs to Bull irrespective of the fact that she at no point sits on it, looks at it, or shows any concern whatsoever for it after the match. The fans and commentators are very angry about this Honda, presumably as it has wronged them in the past. Bobby Heenan is racist towards it, as was the style at the time. While I'm conscious that tastes have changed since the 1990s, and have never owned a motorcycle myself on account on not wanting to be disadvantaged in future games of Twister, the Honda does at least look like you could use it for some go fast good times in order to distract you from your medical costs. Alundra's Harley appears to be specifically designed to have the weight and carry capacity of an SUV but without being hindered by air con or having any crash protection beyond hoping you bleed out quickly on impact.

Naturally, Alundra will win, and will then proceed to pick up a heavy sledgehammer and start wailing on this perfidious motorcycle that has dared to insult the honour of American manufacturing. Unfortunately, whoever came up with this match had perhaps been somewhat too reliant conceptually on American manufacturing, as all Alundra's shots do virtually no damage whatsoever to the bike, on account that it was a Japanese bike made using engineering and real motorcycle ingredients, rather than some garbage they found on the floor. Thinking quickly, Alundra solves this problem by summoning up all of her gently caress YOU YOU'RE NOT EVEN MY REAL DAD energy and shoving the Honda on its side, rendering it utterly inoperable unless a skilled mechanic is willing to carefully and meticulously stand it back up again. Having now forever vanquished this dread machine and the deviant values it stands for, we can be all but sure that Alundra Blayze has guaranteed that Harley Davidson motorcycles will continue to be loved and respected by countless future generations of new motorcycle patients.
