So I watched Legends House this week with the standard vitriol I generally do. I won’t lie: I am not a fan of this show. It’s weird – I feel like I SHOULD like it. I love classic wrestling, like most of the guys…yet every week I feel stupider having watched it. I will say this however: I watched Continue Reading...
Welcome back to the rebooted Jobber Of The Week column here at the new and improved WrestleCrap. I was sitting back thinking that I really should profile a well-known enhancement talent for the big return. Iron Mike Sharpe? The Mulkeys? Sorry, those guys will have to wait for another day. I’ve been on a Bill Watts’ UWF kick lately. Continue Reading...
Someone Bought This: Photo of Mark Jindrak with a gimmick no one remembers
11 Submitted by "The Big Cheese" Paul Kraft on Sun, 25 May 2014, 02:00Hey, remember when Mark Jindrak had a basketball player gimmick in WCW, and he was called “Basket Case”?

Well, I’ve got to give them some points for creativity, at least! I hate to be that guy, but there needs to be a period after the word “mad”, and “Who dares to challenge him!” should have a question mark at the end since it’s Continue Reading...

38 Submitted by Art0Donnell on Thu, 22 May 2014, 20:00UPN television, 2000 In 1999, WWF Smackdown premiered on UPN, instantly becoming the network’s highest-rated program. Thus, it seemed only natural to cross-promote it with Star Trek: Voyager, another series on the network, to increase the latter’s viewership. Now, I haven’t seen a lot of Star Trek. I’ve only watched a season and a half, and that was of The Continue Reading...
