Would let Tony Parker sleep with his wife
Well I know Youtube started to let people upload videos up to 12 hours earlier this year. It just wasn't automatic. Go after reading some FAQs I found this http://support.google.com/youtube/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=71673
The finished product is suppose to be here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CraQkt5Rdg0 but it's still "processing"
FUCK

Think the Hogan HHH stuff was from a Smackdown I was at. I know they did it on tv a few weeks later but they did it as dark stuff in OKC.
Then I stumbled on WWE Silent Library http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=endscreen&v=FeuA6vLPc48&NR=1

From the latest With Leather Best and Worst of Raw:
I get it, Brandon.
I get it, Brandon.
They can be a bit nerve racking, but I found them to be not so bad since I prepared my ass off for each one. Just knowing the answers to the typical questions (Why do you want to become a doctor?, What are the biggest issues facing medicine right now and how will these issues be resolved in the future?, etc.) and being able to talk about my extracurriculars and my personal background made the whole process alot easier.
King could not be more of an asshole in that video. Every time I watch one of those videos the more I think heel Cole is the real Cole. People say it is Vince screaming in the head set feeding lines, but I think that all comes naturally to Cole.
But King making fun of that kid for wanting an autograph, then saying he'd give it to him after the show, and then making fun of him again because he wasn't going to give him the autograph at all was something else. I hope Chimel snaps one day and tries to murder Michael Cole. Bonus points if it is on air. Or at least makes it into The Footage They Didn't Want You To See

I like to think Vince finally understood nobody gives two shits about King anymore and we'd rather have just Cole on commentary instead of BOTH Cole and King.
And really, between those two right now, I would pick Cole any day.

Twin snakes love? oh yes, I can agree to that.

Best of the Indies Month doesn't stop after this coming Saturday, next Saturday September 15th, 2012 we roll on to Ring of Honor.
*ROH champion Kevin Steen vs. Rhino
*ROH Tag Team Title Tournament: S.C.U.M (Jimmy Jacobs & Steve Corino) vs. Caprice Coleman & Cedric Alexander
*ROH Tag Team Title Tournament: Rhett Titus & Charlie Haas vs. The Briscoes
*ROH Tag Team Title Tournament finals to crown new champions
*ROH TV champion Adam Cole vs. Mike Mondo
*Homicide vs Jay Lethal
*ACH vs. Kyle O'Reilly
*Davey Richards returns to ROH
*Tadarius Thomas vs. Silas Young
Order this show now for $15: http://www.rohwrestling.com/ippv
This is turning out to be a good card.
I'm actually really looking forward to this now - Steen vs Rhino should be a lot of fun, and while, like the last iPPV, there's a few matches that don't look too exciting on paper, I'm expecting a few of them to surprise me. Cole vs Mondo and Homicide vs Lethal, for instance, could be really good, and both the tag title semi-finals looks fun. Also, looking forward to seeing ACH make his debut.
Incidentally, as Tomasso Ciampa is out injured, there's a spot up for grabs in Survival of the Fittest - so Tadarius Thomas vs Silas Young will decide who gets that spot! Definitely anticipating this one. TD Thomas impressed me recently, and Silas is one of the more underrated guys on the indies at the moment.

Man, I keep reading on dirt sheets that Kaytlin wasn't supposed to win the Diva's Battle Royal for the #1 Contendership, but that makes no sense. The ending was totally botched in Eve's favor. How could they even run with this story?

Sounds like Batistwo talk to me, PALtista?!
Actually the divas one I do get. In my imagination there's a whiteboard in the WWE Creative office and in the morning someone writes: Night of Champions Card:
Divas match - Layla vs. ???
And then someone, I imagine Vince, goes "so, who's the #1 contender?" and instead of making a nice win/loss record sheet like Eve did for Booker T for the tag-division they go "fuck it, battle royal!"
And then 5 minutes before it happens they call all the girl together, tell them there's a battle royal, draw sticks to decide who wins, quickly book an ending and make sure it doesn't last longer then two minutes. Because divas lol.
I still maintain AJ is the #1 contender from all the wins she had over the past few months, but hey, that would just be too damn logical.
Best of the Indies Month Contest!!!!!!!!
Whoever watches the most indie shows with us this month will win three DVDs from my own personal collection.
Ring of Honor's Better Than Our Best = This was the show that introduced me to Ring of Honor and indie wrestling and I have been hooked ever since. You have a little bit of everything in this all star card which features Bryan Danielson vs Lance Storm in a classic and Homicide vs Colt Cabana in a brutal street fight reminiscent of ECW.
Full Impact Pro's International Impact Phase 2 = This was the Florida based indie I went to for a while back around 2007 and this was the best show they put on during their run as Ring of Honor's sister promotion. You've got some great matches here with Jigsaw vs Delirious, an unknown Dragon Gate classic with Shingo vs Yamato, and a brutal brawl as the main event with The Briscoe Brothers vs The Death Match Kings (Mad Man Pondo & Necro Butcher). You have to see the finish of this match to believe it.
Note: This DVD may be a bit scratched bit it plays find. I just watched Necro Butcher convulsing on the floor after having his back dumped on a guardrail. He's ok though because he's launching chairs at Jay Briscoe's head now. Oh and the DVD case itself is signed by former Ring Of Honor Champion Roderick Strong and Jay Briscoe.
Ring of Honor's The Summer of Punk 2 Disc Set = Once I watch this my self, I will likely not go through it again, so I figured I'll send it out in this set and maybe someone who has never seen the awesomeness of the real Summer of Punk can experience it first hand.
So there you have it. Whoever watches the most indie shows with us in the month of September will win it. I'll do a random number generator if we have more than one who qualifies to win. Also, I won't ship outside of the United States.

The second post of the thread has been updated with:
Bootaaay's Puroresu Primer
Puroresu, puro or prowres, is a catch-all term to describe Japanese pro-wrestling, which was brought to Japanese shores by American soldiers following WW2. But, it wasn't until a Korean-born sumo wrestler, Rikidozan, rose to popularity with the 'Japanese Pro-Wrestling Alliance' that puroresu really took off. A huge star of the 50's and early 60's, Rikidozan shaped the world of professional wrestling in Japan, and his matches against big, bad American heels would electrify the crowd and set the template Japanese wrestling still uses today. Rikidozan was stabbed and killed by the Yakuza in 1963, and the JWA folded just a year later. From the ashes rose two new promotions, headed by the two star students of Rikidozan; Shohei 'Giant' Baba and Antonio Inoki. Baba's 'All Japan Pro-Wrestling' continued in the style of the JWA, which became known as the 'Kings Road' style. The good guys faced off against the imposing, intimidating American heels in hard-hitting, technically sound wrestling matches that rarely had a decisive winner. Antonio Inoki's 'New Japan Pro-Wrestling' also used the JWA's teamplate, but Inoki counted the legendary Karl Gotch among his trainers, and with Inoki's more technical, realistic style that led from Gotch's training came a desire to 'legitimize' pro-wrestling. But for all the karate competitions, and faux-MMA matches Inoki indulged in, New Japan's most successful periods came from when they concentrated on just being great wrestling promotion.
Throughout the 80's and 90's, puroresu was booming. As both New Japan and All Japan did great business putting on wild and action-packed pro-wrestling matches, this caused a rift in New Japan. Like Inoki, Akira Maeda and Satoru Sayama (the original Tiger Mask) had a desire to promote more realistic, 'legitimate' wrestling, so the two left New Japan to form the UWF and create a style of wrestling known as shootstyle that helped pave the way for MMA. For the meanwhile, however, Inoki was happy to keep New Japan on track as a wrestling promotion, with the rise of stars such as Great Muta, Hiroshi Hase, Shinya Hashimoto and Masahiro Chono pushing the company to new heights, while wrestlers such as Naoki Sano & Jushin Liger helped innovate the Jr. Heavyweight style of wrestling that has been so influential in the past two decades. Feuds with the UWF and later the UWFi proved to be big business for New Japan, as Inoki pitted his wrestlers against the shootstyle fighters. Ultimately, bad management would cause the UWF to fail, while wrestling in Japan prospered. Over at All Japan, with some deft long-term booking from Giant Baba and excellent talent such as Jumbo Tsuruta, Stan Hansen & Steve Williams, a host of new stars were created, legendary wrestlers such as Mitsuharu Misawa, Kenta Kobashi, Genichiro Tenryu and Toshiaki Kawada, wrestlers who would define the Japanese 'strong style' of uncompromising, hard-hitting wrestling in the '90s that has been as equally influential to the world of wrestling at-large as its high-flying, Jr. Heavyweight counterpart.
The late 90's saw a down-turn in fortunes for both promotions. With the death of Giant Baba, All Japan was thrown into turmoil. While wrestlers such as Toshiaki Kawada and Kensuke Sasaki (who had jumped ship from New Japan) stayed, many more left, following Mitsuharu Misawa to his new Pro-Wrestling NOAH promotion. Over at New Japan, Inoki was having another stab at trying to 'legitimize' wrestling, mixing puroresu with MMA and shootstyle. A lot of fans and wrestlers became disatisfied with the booking, and as debt spiraled Inoki was forced to sell up. Keiji Mutoh (Great Muta), meanwhile, left New Japan and purchased All Japan from Mrs. Baba. Today, both promotions are emerging from what has been a difficult decade for pro-wrestling and are looking much stronger. New Japan is reclaiming some of the former popularity that made them the biggest promotion in Japan during the 90's, simply through compelling booking, excellent wrestling and a host of top talent. All Japan, after meandering for quite some while, has over the past 3 years began to show itself as a great product once more. Attendences are up, and there's a lot to look forward to in All Japan's future. For Pro-Wrestling NOAH, the future looks somewhat more bleak. After the tragic death of Mitsuharu Misawa, the promotion has been rocked by scandal and dwindling attendences. It seems obvious, to all but those who run the promotion, that the heart of NOAH's problems lie with consistantly questionable booking and an inabillity to create new stars.
Meanwhile, beyond the world of the 'Big 3', there has never been a greater wealth of excellent Japanese indie wrestling than in the past decade or two. Promotions such as Dragon Gate, DDT, ZERO1, Big Japan, Michinoku Pro, Kaientai Dojo, Osaka Pro, OZ Academy, REINA, JWP, etc, offer a wide and diverse mix of wrestling styles, and more than ever before there is something for everyone to love in Japanese wrestling.

Awesome contest - EVERYONE wins with this one!
TNA is actually what led me to watch Ring of Honor because I went looking for Samoa Joe, AJ Styles, Homicide and Daniels on the internet and Ring of Honor was one of the first things to pop up.
Punk says yes.
