The YouTube thread being merged into here was THE worst idea ever. There was so much good stuff that's lost forever.

To be fair, probably 85% of those youtube vids were probably not working anymore.

Thank you everybody for the replies back to my question

Yeah somebody took down all of those Jericho in WCW videos awhile back. :( CONSPIRACY!

Just when they give people their own personal threads like TNA Rick, Swish, Iop.

Apparently Booker T is a St. Kilda fan. Also, The Young Bucks might be going to WWE. Complain away.

Young Bucks hopefully will bring something good to the E. Unless WWE says ok everything you've done you are no longer doing. Then they will be fucked.

Yeah I can't see WWE letting them throw 100 superkicks a match, no selling tombstones on the floor, hitting spike tombstones for near falls, etc.

I'm curious as to what that starting point was.

Dory Funk Jr in what may have been his first NWA World title defense.

always amazed at how great the footage looks from this time period in Japan. American footage from the late 60's doesn't look nearly half as good.

I remember watching this when I was a teenager. Going to have to block out some time to watch this again later.

So, I found the artist formerly known as Michael Tarver's twitter profile. It is amazing and needs to be seen to be believed: https://twitter.com/TyroneEvansB20

Here's a taste:

Haha. I was thinking "That'd make a great slogan for Brock's next t-shirt".

If he carried that little guy to the ring with him, he'd be the biggest face EVER!!!!

Minsc and Boo stand ready!

Not even Trips has busted out a Pedigree that stiff in a while.

For those that watch wrestling on Justin.tv, the website got shut down by Twitch recently.

Wrestling on Justin.tv is how I found TPWW. :'(

RIP Justin.tv :(

This makes me wanna see Batista return and do ridiculous things like bringing cute animals and babies to the ring and then getting on the mic like "DO YOU LOVE ME YET!?!?! I even bought some new jeans that aren't skinny! Look! ANYTHING!?!?!"

Kinda like an amped up Bo Dallas "heel who thinks he's a face" thing but with self-awareness that just makes everything he says and does smarmy.

Great gimmick idea: a deaf wrestler who think he's a face but is actually a heel, but can't hear the crowd boo him.

Bam. Book it,

I don't know what's more ridiculous here:

The fact that Johnny B. Badd is drawn in such a way that he resembles a drag queen who forgot to put on his outfit, or the fact the dude next to the curtain is totally checking out his ass.

Rest in Peace forever Impact?

If there's not a version of this with "Spike" photoshopped in instead of SyFy tomorrow morning when I wake up, I'm going to be very disappointed in the internet.

Hey guys!

Don't forget to cast your vote for fignuts aka THE DEMON KANE in this year's King of the Forum.

bah gawd its kane

So this made it online:
http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z...8A359C4873.jpg

What do you think?

that's pretty hot

You're pretty hot.

Ok, wow. Can someone tell me what the fuck was this all about?

A pedigree's in the selling.

They decided to let Jeff do what he wanted

Oh, right. Drugs.

New logo, removed the word champion and possibly the custom side panel logos..

For some reason I thought the belt would get more of an overhaul. It looks marginally better I guess.

Wish the logo was smaller and was over a map of the world.

Widow I thought it was a cool but would have been better during his emortal heel days

I agree

10 Random people from NXT that should be called up to the main roster before the end of the year.

10. Mojo Rawley
9. Mike Dalton
8. CJ Parker
7. The Gorgeous One
6. Sami Zayn
5. The King of Cuteville
4. Jason Jordan
3. Prince Pretty
2. William Regal (to replace any of the announcers)
1. Tyler Breeze

She's trying to lure an innocent victim into the Belly to Bailey... #HeelTurn

Five Tylers Breeze would make a pretty awesome stable.

Seriously, Tyler is more interesting that half the guys on the current roster.

You lost me at Mojo

Mojo Rawley belongs nowhere near the main roster

I feel I should explain Mojo....
His gimmick is terrible. It make me want to run through a field of razor blades and then jump into a lemon juice jacuzzi. And his move, the hyper drive, just makes no sense. Yea, a big guy jumping on you is gonna hurt, but it's not "hyper".
Considering his gimmick, he plays it off decently.

Give that guy some adderall, and repackage him. They can give him a jock/bully gimmick, and make him a decent heel. Make him stick up for the "little guy" and he can be a decent face.

While I'm not sold on Mojo as a gimmick, and I'm not completely sold on him as a wrestler, I think this guy (with the right gimmick and booking) has the potential to shock us all.

This has replaced El Torito getting run over by Bo Dallas as my favourite gif.

I know just realized what I did as a Hardy fan Im a little ashamed

I have yet to see this gif...

no Vaudevillians? pft

Eff you guys! This is the best GIF ever.

I always imagine what a total mark thought tuning in a realizing that "Whoa! Vince is alive!" only to then hear that Benoit is dead

If this was 2005, someone would post that on YTMND with this as the sound.

A quick search of ytmnd.com reveals that someone did exactly that: http://bodallas.ytmnd.com/

Also false. It is this:

just as i suspected. it is 2005.

STING IS HERE! WE'RE ALL OUTTA TIME!

Lol Bischoff's face looks like Will Ferrell doing his Harry Carey impression

Bischoff should make a surprise appearance on RAW next week for the Hogan celebration.

No it's this:

southern wrestler Ken Lucas has passed away.

Ken was found unresponsive in his home Monday night and rushed to the hospital. He never regained consciousness.

He was imo one of the most underrated workers ever.

He and Ricky Morton were tag team champs for Joe Blanchard's Southwest Championship Wrestling. Their feud with Tully Blanchard and Gino Hernandez was outstanding.

Seems like you garnered a bigger reaction than most matches anymore :)

Did Jericho attack you from behind, and then make out with your fiance' as they stood over you?

I am going to imagine they both turned heel on TD and cut a classic promo on him.

Congrats on the engagement, you git :D

This annoys me so much. EVERY....SINGLE...TIME...

Every single time ANY wrestler dies you post "One of the most underrated workers"

EVERY TIME

This is total bullshit and you are just an annoying cock bag

Apparently every no name from 65-85 was super under rated

probably underrated because people couldn't spend the day on the internet rating wrestlers back then

Moderator Patrol Post:

Hey guys! It's me. I see a little squabble going down. Hope everyone is ok.

The only underrated wrestler here is Tatanka and you can't dispute that. That'd be like dreaming of touching a schoolgirl and that isn't tolerated or entertained around here.

You keep up that moderator patrol post talk and I will send JBL over to your place for a clothesline from HELL!
