Scott Steiner as Shoney's spokesperson is delightful.

Rick popping his head up made me spit tea.

A link to the YouTube version of the Scott Steiner Shoney's ad in case the Uproxx article's embedded video doesn't work.

Someone needs to hook him up with a Volk Han set. Or a best of World of Sport - could you imagine Cena doing all the Johnny Saint-esque escapism?

Spoiler

And he'd probably still be better at it than Quack or Cabana, lol

Cena out-doing Zack Sabre Jr. with the "World of Sport on crack" gimmick would be incredible.

 

[imBask]

it was nice knowing you Frecklestein, don't you know that this place is full of snitch?

 

[Sephzilla]

Well, the drama shit that's been bogging me down this week actually ended on a fairly positive note. We're not going to be "together" anymore but we're still going to remain close friends. We sat down and talked about everything yesterday and it was a really good conversation that cleared a lot of air. I'm still sad the relationship is ending, but still having her as a close friend in life is awesome and it makes her feel a lot happier too

Quack and Cabana are ASS at it. I remember Nigel would just do the Artful Dodger and it was annoying as fuck.

 

[¡HarlequinPanic!]

Glad you're feeling better Seph, try to temper your expectations and do you, brah.

Halo 5 is jus' around the corner~

British Wrestling: oh right, it's supposed to look like wrestling

I woke up and Baseball was on the telly. I watched the Baseball. Holy shit it was insane. Canadian fans throwing shit, Texas people getting angry. It was like pro wrestling.

Why, did one of the players crawl on the ground in the fetal position and stop the match because they got hit with a 10 pound piece of plastic?

I'm really happy for you. It takes a lot for a person to just remain friends after a lengthy relationship ends like that. Just know that it's not a healthy relationship if both if you aren't happy in it, and this makes her happy and opens up options for you to explore and find your own happiness once you fully recover from it. Keep moving forward, brother, you're one of the good ones.

Someone throw a ball and someone else didn't like it, but the Umpires liked it. Basically the didn't like the ref's call in true Canadian fashion.

It's cute when Canadians pretend to be into sports that traditionally, they ain't shit at.

Even if you don't give a fuck about baseball (I do not), that 7th inning is required sports watching now. It was absolutely insane.

 

[Sibersk Esto]

Like pro wrestling, Baseball is pretty much the best when done by the Japanese or Hispanics.

Yup, we ain't shit at hockey and American hockey fans are basically wieners. Hockey sucks. It's basically sweeping your dining room. What skill.

Oh wait that doesn't require skill, let's make them slide on ice on little metal rails. Now we can call it skill-based.

Fuck hockey.

 

[British Monsoon]

Maybe stick a Tanahashi guitar pick in there and I could actually see people buying these, lol.

Or when the British do it and it's called cricket.

Funnily enough American Football is the only real sport I give a single shit about. Rugby or Cricket if it was life or death.

I wish my lengthy relationship could have ended like that -_-

Oh shit, American sports fighting words?

I love American sports, although baseball has too many weird stats that I don't understand.

If Rugby or Cricket was life or death, I'd choose purgatory. LOL.

Which would probably be watching WWE 24/7. fuck.

 

[British Monsoon]

I don't want this to turn into another pissing thread about which sport is better than which, so just be content in knowing that you're right.

Spoiler

It's football. And proper football, mind, not that rugby on roids they play in 'Merica

.

 

[Cagey]

New Jersey Devils with that crossover appeal.

 

[Bluekaveli]

Girl bye

 

[Sephzilla]

The only sport I really cant stand is basketball. Especially the NBA.

Baseball is fun to watch and during the summer it makes great background noise when you're outside and listening to the radio. Hockey can be intense as fuck. Soccer/World Football I enjoy but I have to be in the right mood for it.

American Football is the shit though.

Soccer*

I love Soccer eventhough I live in Canada, I have season tickets for the Impact. Hockey is still #1 to me but I can accept Soccer as the best/biggest

American football is straight garbage, it's terrible, unwatchable and it's the only thing on TV that has more ads than RAW

 

[Deleted member 47027]

Really let's just be honest about the greatest sport in the whole wide world, and it's Sumo. I don't know anyone that doesn't enjoy it if they just sit down to watch it. Sumo is awesome.

 

[Sephzilla]

Isn't the behind the scenes world of Sumo supposedly really fucked up and corrupt though?

Isn't every sport? I wouldn't be surprised. Doesn't make the sport less thrilling to watch.

 

[British Monsoon]

Sumo is indeed awesome, I prefer it in clip form though - much like MMA, too much pageantry, too much of an interlude between any worthwhile action, ect.

Anywho, so weird seeing EVOLVE promoted on WWE.com;

Timothy Thatcher appearing on WWE.com is hella weird.

 

[Sephzilla]

It was years ago but I remember watching a special where they talk about how tons of sumo matches are actually fixed in order to work the gambling industry and make sure certain sumo talents advance more than others. It sounded like a more bizzare corrupt carny version of pro wrestling.

good luck with that, I could never be "close friends" especially right at the start, way too much emotions

breakups make bodybuilders, time to delete facebook and hit the gym

Speaking of sumo, rumor has it that RIZIN, a new MMA company in Japan backed by some Middle Eastern oil prince, is trying to sign Asashoryu and a Japanese Olympic hammer throw gold medalist. We freak show, baby.

Any of you puroresu nerds hear anything about Kota Ibushi signing up? That's also been swirling around.

There's going to be some emotions and we both know that. But the reasons for our break up had really nothing to do with each other or our feelings towards each other, so I think that will make it smoother.
