Yeah, this plays desperately needs some more negativity
Also - how can you hate Punk telling Gabriel and Slater to beat each other to death with kendo sticks then threatening to swan dive off of the titantron himself?

Maybe, but then again, Kanyon was pretty successful during the boom period. Even Thunder in 2000 got more viewers than Superstars and Ryder's YT show do now. But Kanyon was pretty big in 1998/1999, which pretty much makes him more successful than anyone post 2002 besides Cena/Punk/Bork.

As horrible as it was, I -loved- how bad the Ryder/Cena/Eve/Kane feud was. It gave us so much good stuff, especially Cenasmirking.gif which is worth its weight in gold.

Ryder has more than a million followers on Twitter, how many people signed Kanyon's guestbook on his Geocities page?

Ok, I'm out of here. This has gone too far.
Unless someone can find conclusive evidence of that phrase's existence before Jmdajr coined it, I'm gone.
WWE is reading this thread.

I originally posted that there was no official definition months, if not years, ago. Djsandman tried to submit one but it was denied. Check the date on that, was it one of you?

Earliest example I can find on Twitter:
With the deepest regrets and tears that are soaked, I'm sorry to hear your dad finally croaked. He lived a full life on his own terms; soon he'll be buried and eaten by worms. But if I could have a son as stupid as you, I'd have wished for cancer so I would die too! So be brave and be strong; get your life on track-- 'cause the old bastard's dead and he ain't never coming back!

What was the earliest example of WrassleGAF using it?

They told me to stop. They said it'll never catch on.
People like our GWF Commissioner Htown said that we needed to stop. But we didn't stop. We kept on keeping on.
This revolution is ours, not just mine. When legit shook went mainstream, we shook in tandem, legitimately.
This is our victory. Let's celebrate it with the Equality Cup finals tonight.

Lol'd hard for real at legit shook in WWE's game.
Just finished watching G1.
However, the matches were amazing, Tanahashi vs Shibata was just fantastic. Shibata is in my book now, hope they him some gold soon. Did you guys too feel that they made Okada look kinda weak? I mean, come on,
Just finished watching G1.
The finish left me disappointed a bit, was rooting Nakamura all the way. Naito? Really?
he fights Tanahashi to a draw in a gruelling contest (match of the tournament for me) and then just loses like that, duh.

Kind of had to though.
It wouldn't do Okada much good getting these wins, so it doesn't hurt to make him look beatable - and helps anyone's program whoever gets into it with him next.

It's safe to say that I have been well and truly shaken in a legitimate fashion, this has made my day.

Because it's a well-known fact that you're the biggest weeaboo in this thread. We've already done some judging of our own, DragonUguu.
Agreed. You may also say this way of booking helps to equalize guys on the roster, leaving no supermen or complete jobbers. So different from the WWE way.

Yeah. You can bet that if Cena champion and was in a G1 style show he'd be undefeated, instead of the MUCH more interesting "Cena loses most his matches" booking they could do, showing some weakness and flaw in him.

I believe Matthew Gallant submitted it a couple of weeks ago.

I'm pretty sure it was Matthew Gallant who got it successfully accepted onto UD

I'm doing some heavy (lol) research at the moment...
Heavy used the words "legit" and "shook" extensively after the Rock-Cena-Notes promo but never strung the two words together.
As much as it pains me to admit this, it looks like fucking Brandon Stroud of Best and Worst infamy used the phrase, "legitimately shook" in his column about the same promo, which was linked and quoted here, which was shortened to "legit shook" by...
PERSPICACITY?!

Heavy used those two words profusely after that promo. So much so, that I'm willing to not only credit him but suspect that Stroud reads wrasslegaf. He used the long form of that phrase as Plywood noted here. Before that he even titled his paragraph for that segment, "Best In Show: The Rock Gets Shook".
Which leads me to believe that he follows along here, because he googles himself often and we came up, read all the "legits" and "shooks" that Heavy coughed up, and put it in his shitty column, which came back to us.

He'll trace it back to the Save_us Y2J codebreaking segments, which were actually mind worm messages to encode 'legit shook' into our online vocabs.

"legit shook" is Heavy's work, even i remember that. and the shit people gave him afterwards.
No, Heavy inspired legit shook. We were legit shook by heavy using the words legit and shook way too many times
I thought this too.

My favourite WrassleGAF phrase is still 'war crate', as in; "John Cena's war crate sucks!"

Next I need to see the credits for that app, find out who was in charge of the script, go to their website and try to find an e-mail address and ask if he reads GAF and where he got that phrase.
