When I was little I had an irrational fear of when you tried to turn off your Windows XP and the screen would gradually turn Grey as you choose which power option to enter

That shit was SCARY!!!

Me: ok, sleep time!

Windows XP:

I think every generation has something like this. For me, it was the Viacom "V of Doom" logo. As a little kid I was always afraid it was going to come out of the screen and crush me.

And you know what? I was right. The Viacom V is coming, it cannot be stopped, and it will crush you.

You know they say that all men are created equal, but you look at me and you look at Samoa Joe and you can see that statement is not true.

Normally if you go one on one with another wrestler, you got a 50/50 chance of w

But I'm a genetic freak and I'm not normal! So you got a 25%, AT BEST, at beat m

Then you add Kurt Angle to the mix, your chances of winning drastic go down.

See the 3 way at Sacrifice, you got a 33 1/3 chance of winning, but I,

I got a 66 and 2/3 chance of winning, because Kurt Angle KNOWS he can't beat me

and he’s not even gonna try! So Samoa Joe, you take your 33 1/3 chance, minus my

25% chance and you got an 8 1/3 chance of winning at Sacrifice. But then you

take my 75% chance of winning, if we was to go one on one, and then add 66 2/3

per cents, I got 141 2/3 chance of winning at Sacrifice. See Joe,

the numbers don't lie, and they spell disaster for you at Sacrifice.

If Roman had a nickel for every time someone in his family hit him on the back with a chair, he’d have 2 nickels.

[mith-gifs-wrestling]

There’s so much in this moment: Jimmy rising to stand with his brother. Solo standing still. Roman’s baffled realization that control might be slipping away from him. But the thing that legit choked me up was the fans joining in instantly and freely out of love for Sami.  That transcends a storyline, that’s got some real magic to it.

Ox Baker was known for his rivalry with Gorilla Monsoon, his catchphrase, “I love to hurt people!” As well as for the heart punch, the most feared move in professional wrestling. According to legend that spread wildly around the playground, several people hit by the heart punch died the next day of heart issues. This fearsome reputation was aided by a credible body count: the death of Alberto Torres in ring after the use of the heart punch (though it was actually an unrelated case of pancreatitis that was triggered by the ring) as well as Ray Gungel’s death by chest trauma right after their match. These stories only fed word of mouth. On several occasions, crowds would riot and swarm the ring when they saw Ox Baker prepare to use the heart punch, convinced they were watching an attempted murder.

I actually watched wrestling tonight! Really good PLE, with an amazing main event. Probably the best match between Roman and Brock and 100% the best match with a tractor involved.

So Vince is retired. I guess that means Hell has frozen over. I guess Kane better invest in some gear with sleeves then.
