It’s been too long since the last Smackdown
Monday, July 23rd, 2007I haven’t watched wrestling regularly for about 10 years (I used to watch it back when the WWF rocked it), but I really need to get back into it again, it’s bloody hilarious!

I’ve just watched the Great Khali defend his title against Batista (the Animal) and Kane. It was fab. Bodies being smashed into the ringside tables, steel chairs being used as weapons, trademark moves (anyone remember that classic, the DDT as used by Jack the Snake?) - the only thing missing was the referee getting knocked out like those epic matches back in da day…

Double clothes-line - yeah baby!
I know it’s all scripted, that’s half the fun of it! I’m planning to go to a live match with some of the lads at some point. ![]()

I’ve always loved pro wrasslin’. It’s performance art. I’ve loved it since I was a kid and I’ll still watch bits of it here and there when the gf is not looking. My favorite all time wrasslin’ name: Dick the Bruiser.

Lol. One of the lecturers at the uni where I used to work would have a “performance art” lecture once a year, where he would perform bizarre jokes on the students in the name of art… but he never slammed anyone into metal steps… as far as I know.
