I like this whole idea of NECK STRONG isn't a comedy gimmick, and we're supposed to approach it like million dollar bay-bay

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

This isn't exactly a gimmick but one time while she was in Stardom they did a costume show and she dressed up as Minoru Suzuki. She came out to Kaze Ni Nare and did a Gotch piledriver on a big plush Doraemon

I'll understand and enjoy this before I ever do the "pape" one


so this is how I understand it: the term 'pape' was popularised by the Bucks on BTE and all that, but before then it was a Montreal wrestling thing used by folks like Daddy Magic, Cool Hand Ang, and Stu Bennett. I assume they first used it not just because it's a contraction of 'pay-per-view', but because Quebec has a ton of swear words based on Catholic poo poo, rebelling against the dominant state religion and all that

like, elsewhere in the world you'd hear 'pape' as a contraction of 'Papist', as a slur against Catholics, but by associating it with PPVs, wrestling fans in Quebec are doing the same thing as when they say 'tabarnak' or whatever, as a gently caress you to the Catholic Church, which coincidentally weakens the power of 'pape' as an anti-Catholic slur

idk, maybe it's not that deep, but it wouldn't surprise me if that's how it began lmao
