All The Latest Crap!
Someone Bought This “Become A Wrestling Superstar” t-shirt is unintentionally creepy
4 Submitted by "The Big Cheese" Paul Kraft on Mon, 03 November 2014, 02:00I get what they were going for with this creative “Become A Wrestling Superstar” t-shirt. It’s supposed to look like it’s your head on the wrestler’s body when you wear the shirt. The problem is that they left way too much room in between the end of the wrestler’s neck and the end of the shirt’s collar. So it just looks Continue Reading...
It Came From YouTube: Jim Ross is cranky on LiveWire!
15 Submitted by "The Big Cheese" Paul Kraft on Sun, 02 November 2014, 02:00Someone posted this on The Fan Forum and I had to share it here. It’s Jim Ross answering caller questions on WWE’s call-in show from 1996 “LiveWire”. And boy oh boy, Jim Ross must’ve been having a really bad morning that day! Maybe his cowboy hat was on too tight? Could this Blade’s inspiration for his “Angry Jim” character? P.S- Nice Cosby Continue Reading...

With this awesome toy, you could make a match for the CWF (The Clay Wrestling Federation) featuring your newly Continue Reading...
INDUCTION: The Kiss That Never Happened – An Awesome Angle Disappeared Like a Ghost on All Hallow’s Eve!

WWE, 2002 By golly, is Halloween really this Friday??? How the heck did it sneak up on me like this? Surely having my gall bladder removed and being laid out the past ten days didn’t have anything to do with it, right? Eh, whatever the reason, Halloween is nearly here! And as we are want to do ’round these parts, Continue Reading...

Someone Bought This: WWF chocolate bars are just too sweet!
11 Submitted by "The Big Cheese" Paul Kraft on Wed, 29 October 2014, 02:00I was browsing thru the Collecting Candy blog (check it out- tons of cool vintage candy wrappers there!) and I came across an article the author wrote on WWF chocolate candy bars. I’ve never seen these anywhere before, have you Crappers? I always love it when the WWF marketing people decided to put The Big Bossman on merchandise alongside the “bigger” stars....
Someone Bought This: The “Wrestling Champ” shirt looks familiar, brother!
8 Submitted by "The Big Cheese" Paul Kraft on Tue, 28 October 2014, 02:00I found this knockoff Hulk Hogan shirt on Amazon and had to share it. “Wrestling Champ”? Well, I guess it’s cheaper to put that on there than to license “Hulk Hogan” or “Hulkamania” from Hulk himself. It’s meant to be used as part of a Halloween costume, apparently. Let’s see how much they want for it at the time I’m Continue Reading...

A lagoon monster battles an army of wrestling ants (which makes me wonder if this is where Mike Quackenbush got the idea.) Must be Scaleface’s brother. I wonder if he knows The Midnight Rose? Hmm…...
It Came From YouTube: The Exorcist parody!
3 Submitted by "The Big Cheese" Paul Kraft on Sat, 25 October 2014, 02:00Crapper Anders Larsson writes: As a young mark in the late 80s/early 90s when the WWE slogan was “Family Entertainment” I couldn’t believe what I was hearing in this Exorcist parody where Jesse Ventura and Gene Okerlund appeared as themselves, and Okerlund said this about Linda Blair: “Nice tits, sure, but a face I wouldn’t wipe my feet on.” Also Continue Reading...
Headlies: Fan Hospitalized After Trying To Be A “Rosebud”

Induction: Jake Roberts vs. Jerry Lawler – Worse taste than Jim Beam *and* this heading, combined!
33 Submitted by Art0Donnell on Thu, 23 October 2014, 20:00
WWF, 1996 For me and many other viewers, Jake The Snake Roberts’s speech at the 2014 WWE Hall of Fame induction ceremony was far and away the highlight of the show. He made us laugh, he made us cry, he tried to stifle our inappropriate applause, and along the way, he even shared a rather original metaphor for working a Continue Reading...
Someone Bought This: WWE Zombie Superstars Halloween Bag
21 Submitted by "The Big Cheese" Paul Kraft on Wed, 22 October 2014, 02:00Maybe I’m being overly-sensitive but with the number of wrestlers who really have died over the years for various reasons, this bag featuring current WWE Superstars as decomposing Zombies is just a bit morbid and creepy. But hey, there’s a buck to be made from the gruesome imagery, so “why not?” says WWE’s marketing department....

WWE, 2004 Don’t know if I’ve ever mentioned it before, but wrestling and religion don’t mix. No, wait. That’s a total lie. I know I’ve mentioned it before. In fact, I may have even begun a previous induction with the exact same line. Not only that, but we even had a list of at least ten different wrestling/religion flops in The Continue Reading...

It Came From YouTube: The Honky Tonk Man cuts a promo on Randy Savage… in 2014.
13 Submitted by "The Big Cheese" Paul Kraft on Mon, 20 October 2014, 15:00The Honky Tonk Man recently cut a promo on Randy Savage at the suggestion of Bill Apter. You know, the same Randy Savage who died in 2011? Yeah, him. To be fair, this was Bill’s idea, but Honky could have said “No, I don’t want to do that because that’s pointless and disrespects the memory of Randy”. But he didn’t…...

13 Submitted by "The Big Cheese" Paul Kraft on Sun, 19 October 2014, 02:00My friend (and Loyal Crapper!) Matt over at X-Entertainment (and now Dinosaur Dracula) did this great article a few years ago on stupid bootleg wrestling figures. Yeah, some (and by “some” I mean “nearly all”) of them look really, really weird. I guess you could just pretend they’re indy guys. The ring is pretty cheap and ugly, too....

7 Submitted by Jordan Mishkin on Fri, 17 October 2014, 08:00Dallas, TX – TNA President Dixie Carter spent her entire Sunday with a nagging feeling that she was missing something.

Induction: John Cena, This Is Your Life – Baloney, fudge, and mustard, this was terrible!
39 Submitted by Art0Donnell on Thu, 16 October 2014, 20:00
WWE, 2011 In wrestling, there are certain ideas that were so successful at one time that writers can trot them out almost verbatim with no other justification but, “Let’s do this again because you liked it the first time!” Just look at The Four Horseman. Not only did it re-form repeatedly in the 90s, but as late as 2010, TNA Continue Reading...
It Came From YouTube: Earthquake takes on Yokozuna… in a Sumo Match?!
15 Submitted by "The Big Cheese" Paul Kraft on Thu, 16 October 2014, 02:00Not even the greatness of John “Earthquake” Tenta can make the whole Sumo match interesting so here’s just the finish of it. I know John was a legitimate Sumo Wrestler, but I’m not quite sure what they were thinking with this. It didn’t get Earthquake over, they didn’t push him, and he left shortly afterwards anyway. Plus, it made Yokozuna look Continue Reading...
