Guilty Pleasures

Papa Shango

Who do you enjoy watching, knowing full well that the rest of the 'net thinks they are talentless oafs.

My guilty pleasure has to be The Big Show. Its a riot watching him wrestle. No Frills.. just all business. and the way he screams 'AAAAAAAAHHHHHHH' when he clubs someone with a forearm.. brilliant stuff. Two weeks ago i think it was.. i cant remember who he was fighting.. he was talking trash to him.. it went something like "You cant beat me, who do you thi... AAAAAAAAHHHH" and then he clubbed him with another forearm. classic stuff

Its also a weekly tradition in this house to bet on the number of times he slaps his opponent's chest during a match.

I think its safe to say that Big Show is my favourite at the moment.. pure entertainment.


Anyone else have some guilty pleasures they need to get off their chests?

I used to love X Pac, just the constant jumping and those awesome spinning heel kicks. I also loved the Bronco Buster as a move, while everyone complained about him being the most boring wrestler with the worst move.

I used to enjoy the X-Factor when they came out, Albert was gorilla pressing Kane and Justin Credible I always liked, his Thats Incredible move I liked too, and X-pac always got some heat(good or bad to ratings). I don't know why but I like all those guys.

They were impressive.
X-Factor was my pleasure

A-Train, as he is the only person who yells "WAAAAAAAH-BOOF" when he runs into something

I have several.

Coachman - He sucks so much he's great!

Theodore Long - The "Black" angle sucks, but he deserves a mention for phrases such as "Let me holla at ya, playa!"

Scott Steiner - Something about him. Even though he can't wrestle, I like him.

La Resistance - These guys totally rule. Great wrestlers, and for some reason, I love the "We're French, f''k you" kinda thing they got going on.

Bigshow - As he insists on saying in every promo he ever does, he's "7 foot 2, five hunnnndred pounds", he's dominating, what's not to like?

That's about it.

I can't help but thinking that A-Train would be the worst McDonalds worker ever.

As he welcomes the customer, he yells "WAAAAAAAAARRRRGH".

As he takes the money and moves his hand to the till - "WAAAAAAAARRRRGH"

Shouts across his order in a melodramatic style: "Can-I-get...TWO MACS!"

Picks up the food and fries: "WAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGH"

And so on.

He'd be even worse as a librarian.

Imagine him reshelving books:

"WAAAAAAARGH!"

"Shh! Quiet!"

"Sorry. Let's see... 932.D231... here it goes! WAAAAAAARGH!!!"

"You're fired."

And I don't think he'd make a very good day care worker either.

"Unkie Albert, kin I have a piggie back ride?"

"Sure thing, squirt! And UP you go! *picks kid up* WAAAAAAAARGH!!!!"

"Aaah! He gonna eat me! I want my mommy!!! Boo hoo!"

"Hey, no need to get excited kid. Fine, I'll put you back down. WAAAAAAAARGH!"

"Aiiieee!"

"Boy, these kids nowadays. Get too much sugar I guess. HEY EVERYONE! It's nap time!"

"Unkie Albert, sing us a lullaby!"

"Of course! *Ahem*

Albert was a hairy freak
hairy freak
hairy freak
Albert was a hairy freak
Whose fleece was black as coal!

Ah, worked like a charm. They're all asleep"

*Albert flicks off light switch* "WAAAAAAAARRRRRGH!!"

"AAAAIIEEEE!!! MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY"

Man, this is a tough one. Big Show is great, but since I watch so much RAW ...

Ah, screw it. HBK. No matter what he does, he just makes it look great.

In a non-wrestling capacity, Foley. The guy could sit on the can all show, and I'd still tune in.

Also why A-Train never works in the stealth stake-out people in the police.

"There's our suspect now at the window Albert, zoom in with the binoculars."

"Sure thing....WAAAAAARRRRRRGGGH!"

*The criminal jumps out of the window and speeds away in his car.*

"Must have been a tip-off, I'll put these away...WAAAAAAAARRRRGH!"

Or in a registry office.

"You may kiss the bride...WAAARRRRGH!"

He'd work as a member of Slipknot. All they do is go WAAAAARRRRGH a bit.

Face it, its Scott Steiner all the way! ::sly::

The guy is such a crap wrestler, but I still enjoy watching him in the ring, and I play as him alot on the SD5! game for PS2.

Other than that I dont think there is anyone else I feel guilty watching.
