I think the main thing for the Osiris video, is that it barely has anything to do with wrestling, which might be why I've seen it posted in GBS and PA.

So I was looking up charlie chaplin videos for a project, and literally the first result for charlie chaplin is this:

I love that almost this entire skit has been used bit by bit over the decades, but into pro-wrestling, where you can actually pull this poo poo off.

I saw a commercial for the new MAD tv show on Cartoon Network.
I think it's safe to say we would unironically watch the poo poo out of this as a full time show:

Wow just...wow. Is it possible for this storyline to get *any* better?
Punk shows up, *unannounced*, throws Trips off his game for a bit, and then leaves.

Cabana was right, he is King Promo.

Back when Savage died, I mentioned a fantastic Savage promo leading up to Wrestlemania X. Bearnt! was able to find an abridged version of it, which was cool, but things wouldn't be right until we got the full promo. Luckily, he finally uncovered it.

The backstory: Savage and Crush have a match coming up at Wrestlemania based on Crush turning on Savage and befriending Yokozuna. Savage had a title match against Yokozuna and was about to finish him off with the elbow, only to have Crush interfere and gently caress it up for him. The two have been so red hot towards each other that Jack Tunney has banned the two from being in the locker room at the same time.

Here is Savage's take on the situation.

Two subtle things that rule about this:

1) The way Vince tries not to make eye contact at one point and Savage jerks his neck to make sure Vince is looking him dead in the eye.

2) The possible reference to Hogan and the Mega Powers Exploding.

I miss this type of passion so much from pro wrestling.

Those opening music notes garners the same sort of reaction that "Are You Ready" and Glass breaking did in their prime.

I looked that up because of this post. Wow.

As much as I should *not* have watched this video as soon as I woke up, I'm still glad I did.
Two things:
The end shot perfectly encapsulates Benoit now. Even his greatest triumph will always be tainted with his greatest mistake.
Despite how terrible the video still makes you feel, I still marked out at the counter out of the Angle Slam at 4:05

Oh Hey! More awesome videos from MVZ!

I never get to watch Smackdown, so this is the most I've actually seen of AJ. Is she as decent as the video makes her out to be? Or is that just side effects of the KPop?

Every few months, someone is kind enough to upload The Punk Promos knowing full well they're going to get taken down within weeks. Luckily, someone did it a little bit ago and it looks like they haven't been picked off yet.
I don't really need to explain these do I? We all know this story by now( even more so since he did The E Reboot)

The thing that sticks out now, is that he even stole Pipe Bomb from this.

I don't know, how has steen been these days? They never seem to show off whatever it is they're doing with his character on The Tubes, so all I know is that he's Champ now and Corino and Jacobs are bouncing back and forth between Heel and Face every other week.

So I saw this video a few weeks ago about science poo poo. Mainly
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-yrZpTHBEss

I love this type of poo poo, but in the back of my head, ever since I saw the video, I've been having this nagging feeling that I've heard the guy somewhere before. For weeks, literally. I just COULD NOT place that voice.
Finally, today, I realized.
He talks exactlylike Quack in Promo Form.

there was this weird overarching "angle but not really an angle" going on throughout Raw that Mike Adamle simply couldn't run a production set so massive as the Monday Night RAW program, and as such all this random stuff kept happening throughout the show. A wrestler would be doing the "walk down the hall" shot and a light would fall over almost beaning him in the head. An interview would be going on backstage and you'd hear a commotion off-screen and the camera guy would pan over and there'd be two dudes brawling by the loading dock. This also tied into Punk cashing in MITB and winning the title.
It was this weird meta-angle and I wish I could find more clips of it, cause it was doing a lot of things that you generally don't do on Raw, which made it kinda interesting.

found related to the last video and...I'm not sure how I feel about this.
I never really liked Michael Hayes, but the overall sentiment of the song is nice, I guess?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bJj9wDlgP3I

EDIT: I think everything that doesn't involve Hayes on camera, I'm fine with. at around 4:20, he comes really close to literally dancing on his grave.

It's loving annoying the amount Of great material they've taken down without providing any legal alternatives. I own two perfectly legal copies of Danielson vs. Generico from Proving Ground '09 but both omit everything before the opening bell. I can understand not being able to include the entrances for copyright reasons but there's no reason at all not to have the best pre match sequence I've ever seen.

I had this exact same conversation a little bit ago, and it's one of the reasons I stopped following ROH. They're responsible for so many of these awesome moments in recent wrestling history, but they themselves white-wash the clips from existance. It'd be one thing if they just had them available on the DVD, but as you pointed out, they don't even put them on there.

Meanwhile, in Chikara-Land almost everything cool they've ever done, from Super Serial

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PAD7_K7soWs

to Grenade Play

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zOcjq4siu7A

has been up and available for months if not years. Hell the stuff between Peck and Taylor was up on youtube nearly as soon as the DVD came out
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jDw0ivvq9Nk
and it's still online.


Anyway, the fact that the drat match involving that original BJ/Jacobs Powerbomb continued only so that they could get the stupid Lacey spot set up might be the second dumbest part about that video.

So the WCW Thread brought my attention to this video. Essentially the lead programmer/designer of the lovely WCW games does a retrospective on just what the gently caress happened Business and Programming wise, to make WCW Backstage Assault (and mayhem to a lesser extent) so god awful. If you're any sort of a computer nerd, you're gonna enjoy hearing him talk about mips and a whole bunch of other poo poo that might as well be techno-babble
