I have to give a shout-out to Alfenar on this
time to get down and nerdy with Sandy Kruger from SACRED FEW and she brought a
bunch of records in so we're gonna take a look first up we have FACES "A Nod Is
As Good As A Wink (to a blind horse)" quick history I had an apartment fire in 1981
lost my entire record collection and this is one of the only survivors this
is one of the very first albums I ever bought old record club of America
you know you get ten albums I think for a buck or something like that's how my
brother hi Steve and myself we built up our album collection was that a mail
order type thing or what do you mean yeah it was mail order yeah yeah and you
had to commit like once a month once a month you you had to like send them your
money and pick picking albums so we do it every other month you know I had one
month and then my brother would have the next month and so on oh so that was one
of the best ways for kids who don't have a lot of money to build up a record
collection at least four back then JUDAS PRIEST "Sad Wings of Destiny" that looks
brand freaking new so one of the first metal albums that I ever bought back in
the day yeah when I when I lost that album collection you know metal was out
and it was out front and it was what I was into at the time so I didn't I
replaced a few things of that original collection but I was buying pretty much
all metal for a long time and that was one of the very first metal albums that
I bought and it's still a favorite to this day yeah classic IRON MAIDEN "Killers"
this is also one of the very first metal albums I bought the song 'Killers' itself
was like the dictionary definition of metal to me I mean when I first heard it
it just blew my head off literally the entire album just basically blew my head
off how do you top that that and "Sad Wings..." how do you top that you know you
don't hey guys SCORPIONS "Love Drive" I have to give a
shout out to Alfenar on this I'm gonna add this one into the naked
bodies you know little chest shot right there anyway Alfenar this is for you
SCORPIONS "Virgin Killer" and Alfenar showed this as well I gotta tell you this was
this the alternate cover too - this is the alternate cover and I was hoping it was
in color because I wanted to get into guys wearing red pants you know you
you wanted to get into their red pants? or you wanted to get into guys that were wearing red pants?
that's the red pants yeah no Uli Jon Roth rocks the red pants very good look
I'm going through my album collection I'm like oh crap they shot it in black and white
yeah darn it so anyway so much for the guys in the red pants do you have any
favorite musicians that wear red pants I'd have to think about I
can't think of anyone in particular because I never really.. red pants I
don't know so what did the SCORPIONS mean to you as a band
everything really I I am such a huge fan and they are such an influence you know
Uli Jon Roth he's my number one favorite guitarist Klaus Meine is one of
my most favorite vocalists I mean they were just a pioneering band especially
for the time that they came out you know music incredible vocals incredible
guitars incredible just incredible yeah you know it's it's just one of those
bands that hits you you know I could listen to them a thousand times you know
what it's not enough I'd have to I have to listen to him a thousand times
more yeah it's never enough you know yeah I love them they're probably my
most favorite band you know honestly yeah
70's SCORPIONS 70's yeah so needless to say you are entranced with
the SCORPIONS so this one's autographed too so yeah how did you get that you
were just right time right place or well that was a Jager influenced moment oh
okay we used to have a club called the Jigsaw and this is going back to 2008 so
would have been Uli's third time here now mind you folks he never came to the
states until 2004 and he could not believe the fan base that he had here he
I don't think he had any idea till he came here so we hung
around after the show because he wanted to meet the fans and he was signing
stuff so a couple of friends of mine and I we were we were the last in line and
we were all loaded at that point yeah and I remember I spilled his wine glass
I think I'm the one who nudged it
was talking to him a little like by the way would you sign my album
but I still have that flyer
sitting on the table too and he signed the flyer now the cool thing is
the flyer has a wine stain yeah so anyway I'm sure he remembered that and then you
know they're doing their SCORPION set on the stage and I'm in the front and I'm
yelling he he's like tell me what you want to hear I'm like "Sails of Charon" and
I'm yelling at all these songs and you know and and and another thing he said
to me at the end of the night there yo you're the one I saw you
yeah I said yeah that was me how have you embarrassed yourself in
front of your heavy-metal heroes let us know in the comments below and make sure

Karolina Borkovcova IFBB PRO - Season 2018 Ep.8 | ARNOLD CLASSIC | DISAPPOINTED? | ARRIVING HAWAII - Duration: 34:51.
So here is the stage.
Show is over.
Its not good because Karolina didnt make it to top 10
Were disappointed
But it doesnt matter because
every experience counts
and we have to keep going
Theres another contest in a week
Lets at least take a photo by the statue
You didnt say how you placed yet
I dont know how I placed
Im not in top 10 so
so too bad
I was in second last call out
Of course Im disappointed...Pissed
I know I wasnt in top shape so what else could I expect.
People stand in line to take pic with that statue as it was a real man huh?
Its funny
Expo is crazy.
You cant hear a word there
You cant even see 2 meter in front or behind you.
I had to get outa there
Were really not in to these expos where we have to keep pushing with people
To meet somebody you gotta go through crowds for 30 mins.
Arnold EXPO is unbelievable
If EVLs Prague PRO expo seemed crazy to you then you should see this one.
This is like 4 times bigger
Giantic
Its only about going through crowds
right?
yeah
exactly
So were leaving expo
Were gonna get some food
Will you finish this?
Even if you didnt win you still have fans
Its sweet
You feel better huh?
Youre always down if this happens
Lets have Corona
Cheers people
Looking good huh?
Super
So Hawaii PRO prep starts tomorrow right?
Today youre eating.
Today Im gonna have something and
and since tomorrow...
Well we will be in a plane but

I will let you know when we get there ok?
So Im glad youre not crying under bed there.
Nooo
Just let me know when you land.
Sure

Say hi to Jiri
Youre not crying under bed?
Did you talk to your mum?
So you film me half down mascara looking like zombie?
It doenst matter
These are your favourite shots huh?
I dont have undies so dont film me
I take you head only
It difficult
to take the fact that
Youre pissed
feeling like Im done with this
I probably dont belong here
Then you realize that many athletes when they become pros
they dont win
Only few win right away
Almost nobody
Everybody has to earn it
and the other thing is that I was out of shape so
We will see at Hawaii
We have one week left
Today I will eat lil bit
but since tomorrow
Brutality begins
and hopefuly Ill make it to finals at Hawaii
We keep going and dont give up.
We do what we love so were not gonna cry.
There was 23 girls and I picked the second best show after Olympia so
and this was my second pro show
Its morning
Saturday after Arnold and were heading to
Hawaii in a few
Its 5:30 am and
we should go now.
Jiri is potting on compressions
We both wear them
You dont get swolen legs from that long flights
and here are our packed bags
Look how much waste we produced in two days
I cant believe
damn
This is how our room looked like
Two king beds, bathroom
small fridge no kitchen here
We will finally have kitchen in Hawaii
You probalby dont see much but this is Columbus
We didnt havea chance to aclimatize and were leaving again
Im screwed. I wanna sleep during day and cant sleep at night
I dont really feel good.
Were going to warm place so it keeps me above the water
No carbs for me today
Yesterday I ate so junk
but today I gotta cleanse myself
zero carbs and starvation
Only necessary chicken so I dont starve to death.
lot of water
Its ok for the flight that I dont have to over eat
and eating carbs and so
you just wanna survive in the plane squeezed in the seat so
So were going
Lets get the f*ck out of this cold
Holy sh*t
Lets order the cab via app
I gotta turn on internet
It dissconected of that fu*king wifi
Here I can see our cab reaching to us
Can you see?
Vitali is coming to pick us
You get it?
yes
Will they charge your creadit card?
I take one big one or?
Whatever
Take this one
Were entering the plane now
heading to Denver
there we have connection flight
from there we go to San Francisco
and from there to Honolulu
I have to starve because I gotta tight it up
in a week I cant do much but
I will give it by best
starve it down
So its gonna be hell
32 minutes more
I got in online
32 mins and were on our way
Its not bad
3,5 hours flight is a piece of cake for us now
in comparision with those long flight
Jiri is having sprite
just like pig
Im not jelaous
because yesterday when I stood there in last call out...
I felt like sh*t.
This years shape wasnt that good but it doesnt matter
Everey prep is different
and Im just a human so I can fail sometimes too.
Were in Denver, Colorado
It awesome when you fly national US flights
We dont have to re check
We dont have to go through customs
from state to state
Its great
Less stress amd more joy
We have only an hour between flights
Next flight is from Denver to San Francisco
Flights gonna be about 3 hours right?
I dont know
Yes its 3 hours
Do we have seats next to each other?
yes
Yes?
Yes were next to each other?
We werent next to each other now and Karolina missed me
It was terrible
I was so down
Youre on no carb diet right?
Are you looking forward to be fat and happy?
More to be home
Next meal stop
Were already in Denver
Were in San Francisco
What?
Francisco
Oh Im all disoriented yet.
Were in San Francisco
Im having snack too
First night at Hawaii 1:30 AM
God damn
What youre doing?
Thats just great
Fu*king stuffed toilet
Im dying here
Damn it
Its 1:30 am
Well were fu*ked
Its fu*king stuffed.
Shits all over
Damn it
You gotta do it with this
Im not so sure
Fu*king thing
So come on
What the fu*k is this useless tool
Great! Sh*t.
Why do you flush it if its stuffed?
I just needed more water in it
I wanna sleep
Its totaly stuffed
Fu*king blocked
We threw old pieces of chicken breast in it
but those were small pieces
Smaller than s*it. I thought that they will go through.
Great
Hell yeah!
I digged through it!
S*it
Thank you
S*it and p*ss is all over me god damn it!
No
You cant see it but do you think that there was no p*ss in that water?
You go to shower?
I go to hower
hover?
I just woke up
and Karolina wasnt here
Then doors oppened...Karolina was out to do cardio
Its 5:46 am
Karolina finished her cardio yet.
Karolina is taking shower
Im all reversed. I cant sleep at night
and Im all beat up during the day.
Its terrible
Well you gotta straigth up
But it was better today
Its getting better yet
We spent 46 hours traveling in last 4 days.
Not bad huh?
Its like 11 hours in plane per one day
You must feel awesome after that huh?
Yeah awesome.
Great shape
No cardio, no trainin...Terrible.
Were about to make a breakfast
Its still dark
Boil the water for tea
okay
Well now we have a big room.
Its cool
Two king beds again
Thats not like were pigs
We just put out our clothes
because Karolina wanna see what clothes she has here so she doesnt have to search it closets
Here is our kitchen
microwave, cooker
fridge is sufficient
Freezer where Karolina already has some green beans
Were making eggs like home
omelete
I so much wanna have some carbs yet
You gotta wait 5 more days
Im crashed now.
I dont know what Im gonna do tomorrow.
you will be crashed even more
When I did my cardio my legs keep stopping working.
I was thinking...Okay now my knee collaps and I fu*king fall down.
My legs didnt work for me.
Its like when you try to run and you feel like a rag doll.
Terrible
Nobody can understand untill they go through it themselves
and you can tell it to anybody
Its healthy right?
I think its healthier that overeating and being a pig
right
If you do it proffesionaly then the final phase is not healthy but
if you look at it that you do something 365 days a year...
its still better
I still think that a week of starving and doing cardio
is still healthier than week vacation while you eat like pig and get drunk
Youre right without a question
Its strange that you feel worse when you do like healthier thing
rather than eating like pig and get drunk
everybody feel ok
but its worse for your body
its strange
Let the pan turned on and put 4 egg whites amount
low the temp if its hot
so it doesnt get burned
4 egg whites right?
yes or 3 and one whole egg
what if you have salmon insted of that whole egg?
all right
You said 4 egg whites right?
just pour it like 4 egg whites amount
So it covers the pan to make it a pancake
1...2...3...4
Cardion with no internet connection you said?
Cardio with no wifi is my nightmare
terrible
It seemed so long. So quiet.
You count every second thinking...f*ck
You did cardio here in hotel.
You make yourself this delicious tea!
I did
You drink yours
Disgusting egg whites are cooking
Mine is ready
Im gonna have oatmeal, eggs and tea
I put cinnamon in my oatmeal
and lil bit of splenda
sweetener
Its monday
Show is on Saturday
We try to aclimatize here
Its very expensive food here.
Damn expensive
One egg is 10 Czech Crowns here
chicken breast 450 crowns per one kilo
Rice cakes pack...What I said? 100 crowns.
Fu*king water
expensive
Its really expensive here but Its nice here
right?
It reminds us Florida here
Enviroment
Not to me. I was never there
Well to me.
and Its always warm here. Even at night
During day its maximaly 27C not more
24-27
at night slightly over 20C
Its so good right?
We found ourselves a gym
Of course we had to get a membership
Gyms here dont provide one time entry
like in Czech
Its always like that in USA
We didnt rent a car this time because We dont need it
Everything is within 10 mins walk distance
Were totally happe here.
Its 5 mins walk to beach
waikiki beach so its great
Yesterday we checked it out for the first time.
Just wonderful
Yesterday was Sunday so there was more people than in a week.
We will check hows its gonna be today
We have to overcome this weeks before Karolinas contest
Its not gonna be much of a fun
We plan to stay here for about a week after the show is over.
Where is it. Here
Lets do this
so
Throw it in
Put it in
How many quarters?
Looks like five
yes
What a f*ck?
It jammed?
Hit it
Do we have enough money?
yes
Now choose what program you want
Delicate cold just to be sure
I dont know
Yes choose normal warm
Its like 60C
No!
No?
I better set it like that
All right

2004-2014 F150 Putco Black Platinum Pillar Posts Classic w F150 Logo SuperCrew Review & Install - Duration: 2:27.
Putco's Black Platinum Pillar Posts are a quick and easy appearance mod that will change
up the side look of 2004 to 2014 SuperCrew, with four stealthy gloss black pillar post
trim pieces that include the licensed F-150 logo from Ford.
The logo will match all other emblems on your truck and its etchings are two of the pieces
for an OEM look.
It contrasts the black-coated stainless steel well, and with a peel and stick application,
I'll be giving this one out of three wrenches on the difficulty meter.
And expect this to take less than 30 minutes to get on.
Unlike most trim pieces, these are made from stainless steel and not plastic.
They're gonna hold up well to all weather conditions as well as extreme temperatures
without rusting, fading, or falling off.
3M automotive adhesive is pre-applied to each piece and is designed to keep its strong bond
for years to come.
The 304 stainless they're made from is naturally resistant to rust and corrosion, and it's
coated in the black platinum gloss for additional protection and a great look.
This is a great alternative to chrome pillars.
Because we are utilizing automotive bonding tape, there will be no drilling or permanent
modification required, which is great if you ever need to or want to remove these later
down the line.
Just north of 130 bucks is a great price for stainless steel trim pieces that are going
to enhance the look of your truck on a section you see every day.
With the quality of the materials involved, this is a good investment that will last the
life of your truck.
If you wanted to go with a non-coated stainless version, Putco offers it for just a few bucks
more.
Switching over to the install, this is a peel and stick application that I'll be giving
one out of three wrenches on the difficulty meter.
And expect it to take less than 30 minutes to put on.
The only tools you'll need is some soap and water or alcohol to clean the surface area.
After cleaning the area, you're gonna adhere the pillar post, you're gonna align the post
for fitment.
Start to peel off a section of the 3M adhesive tape.
Once aligned properly, again, press the exposed adhesive onto the vehicle while maintaining
alignment.
Now slowly pull the remaining red protective film downward until removed.
Press the panel firmly onto the vehicle for at least 30 seconds until proper adhesion.
Now repeat these same steps for the other pillar post.
After all four are on, remove the protective white film to expose the finished metal.
That wraps up my review on Putco's Black Platinum Pillar Posts.

Bundesliga classic vs. BVB kicks off crucial period - Duration: 2:32.
Finally, the decisive, do-or-die period of the season begins.
The last national team break is over, now one highlight will chase the other.
In the next few weeks all the decisions in the championship, the DFB-Cup and the Champions League will take place
and this crucial period begins tomorrow evening with the Bundesliga's absolute top match, Bayern Munich against Borussia Dortmund.
Now we have to focus on Dortmund and on winning this game. It would be a mistake to already think
about the game in Sevilla.
Dortmund had difficulties in October and November
but now they're doing well.
They have more stability under the new coach.
It's difficult to beat Dortmund
but if we show 100% we can do it.
We have to show those 100% on Saturday.
In today's final training session Kingsley Coman, Juan Bernat and Arturo Vidal were still absent.
These players will not be able to feature against Dortmund tomorrow.
We have one player who returned with an injury and that is Arturo Vidal.
He is suffering from a severe bruise on his thigh.
Juan Bernat has had problems with his ankle in the past days
so he too will not be available.
With a win against Dortmund Bayern Munich would not only celebrate the perfect start
o the all-deciding month of April but could also prematurely secure the sixth championship in succession
if Schalke fail to beat Freiburg Saturday afternoon.
For Bayern manager Jupp Heynckes, however, it doesn't matter when Bayern become champs.
In my opinion we have to try to win against a 100% strong opponent tomorrow.
For us it makes no difference if we win the championship tomorrow or next week or the week after.

TOP 15 Classic Wrestler Appearances On TV You Totally Forgot About - [Facts Wrack] - Duration: 19:27.
15.
GOLDBERG ON THE GOLDBERGS.
BEING THE MOST RECENT ENTRY ON THIS LIST, CHANCES ARE ANYONE WHO SAW FORMER WCW AND
WWE WORLD CHAMPION BILL GOLDBERG APPEAR ON THE GOLDBERGS REMEMBERS IT WELL.
FUNNY AS THE SHOW AND THE MAN'S ROLE ON IT ARE, THOUGH, IT'S ONLY A MODERATE HIT
IN THE RATINGS, SO IT'S TOTALLY POSSIBLE A GOOD PORTION OF THE WRESTLING AUDIENCE DIDN'T
EVEN KNOW IT HAPPENED.
FOR THOSE WHO DON'T KNOW, THE GOLDBERGS DOESN'T ACTUALLY HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH
THE WRESTLER, WHO SIMPLY SHARES HIS LAST NAME WITH THE CENTRAL CHARACTERS.
EVEN SO, GOLDBERG CLAIMED IT WAS A NATURAL FIT FROM THE DAY HE WALKED ONTO THE SET, A
CONNECTION THAT CAME ACROSS ON CAMERA.
HIS CHARACTER WASN'T ACTUALLY A GOLDBERG, BUT RATHER THE BROTHER OF ADAM AND BARRY'S
HIGH SCHOOL GYM TEACHER, COACH MELLOR.
COACHING APPARENTLY RAN IN THE FAMILY, LEADING TO A SIBLING RIVALRY THAT BEVERLY'S YENTA
TENDENCIES NATURALLY FELT THE NEED TO FIX.
THUS FAR, GOLDBERG HAS APPEARED ON THE GOLDBERGS TWICE, WITH MORE POTENTIAL GUEST ROLES RUMORED
FOR THE FUTURE.
14.
THE ROCK, TRIPLE H, BIG SHOW, AND MICK FOLEY ON SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE.
IN MAY OF 2017, THE ROCK MADE HISTORY YET AGAIN BY BECOMING THE FIRST WRESTLER, AND
ATHLETE IN GENERAL, TO BECOME A MEMBER OF SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE'S HERALDED FIVE-TIMERS
CLUB.
IF IT ISN'T OBVIOUS, THIS MEANS HE SERVED AS THE HOST AT LEAST FIVE TIMES, BUT TO MANY
FANS OF COMEDY AND THE GREAT ONE, HIS FIRST APPEARANCE WAS DEFINITELY THE BEST.
IT'S NOT JUST THE FACT THE BIG SHOW, MICK FOLEY, AND THEN-WWE CHAMPION TRIPLE H ALSO
APPEARED EITHER, ALTHOUGH THE HANDFUL OF SKETCHES WHERE THEY ALL INTERACTED WERE TRUE HIGHLIGHTS
— ESPECIALLY THE INCREDIBLE NICOTREL ADVERTISEMENT.
IN MANY RESPECTS, THE ROCK'S FIRST SNL HOSTING GIG WAS HIS COMING OUT PARTY AS AN ACTOR AND
ENTERTAINER, PROVING HE WAS FAR MORE THAN JUST A MERE WRESTLER.
SHORTLY THEREAFTER, HIS MOVIE ROLES STARTED GETTING EXTREMELY SUCCESSFUL, LEADING TO HIS
NEXT FOUR ROLES GETTING CREDITED AS DWAYNE JOHNSON.
UNFORTUNATELY, SOME OF THESE LATER GIGS TRIED TO MASK HIS WRESTLING PAST, MAKING PEOPLE
FORGET ABOUT HOW HILARIOUS HE COULD BE WHEN DIGGING INTO IT INSTEAD.
13.
BRET HART ON THE SIMPSONS.
ARGUABLY THE GREATEST CONTRIBUTION TO ENTERTAINMENT CREATED IN AMERICA, JUST ABOUT EVERYONE ON
EARTH IS WELL AWARE OF THE SIMPSONS.
THE HILARIOUS YELLOW FAMILY AND THEIR IMMENSE WORLD CALLED SPRINGFIELD HAVE BEEN ON OUR
TV SCREENS FOR OVER 30 YEARS, AND THERE'S STILL NO END IN SIGHT TO THE HIJINKS THEY'LL
GET UP TO.
THERE ARE AT LEAST TWO DOWNSIDES TO HAVING BEEN AROUND FOREVER, THOUGH.
FOR ONE, ALL SIMPSONS FANS ARE WELL AWARE THE SHOW HAS DECLINED IN QUALITY OVER THE
YEARS.
SECONDLY, WITH OVER 600 EPISODES, IT'S EASY TO FORGET MINOR DETAILS LIKE THE TWO SCENES
IN "THE OLD MAN AND THE LISA" GUEST STARRING BRET HART.
THE EPISODE DETAILS MR. BURNS LOSING HIS VAST FORTUNE, INCLUDING HIS MANSION, WHICH THE
HITMAN DECIDES TO PURCHASE AFTER LEARNING IT'S NEXT DOOR TO HIS FICTIONAL RIVAL, THE
SHRIEKING SHEIK.
EVEN THOSE WHO REMEMBER THE APPEARANCE WELL MIGHT QUESTION IF IT WAS ACTUALLY HART IN
THE ROLE, AS HE STRANGELY MASKED HIS VOICE, BUT WE CAN CONFIRM IT WAS REALLY HIM.
12.
JOHN CENA ON PSYCH.
IN SOME RESPECTS, THE THEME SONG TO PSYCH SOUNDS A LITTLE BIT LIKE A DESCRIPTION OF
KAYFABE — "I KNOW YOU KNOW THAT I'M NOT TELLING THE TRUTH."
THROW IN THE FACT THAT PSYCH, LIKE RAW AND SMACKDOWN, HAPPENS TO AIR ON THE USA NETWORK,
AND PERHAPS IT WAS INEVITABLE MAIN CHARACTERS SHAWN AND GUS WOULD BE OPEN AND PROUD WWE
SUPER FANS.
FOR THIS REASON, THEY MUST HAVE BEEN OVERJOYED TO INTERACT NOT ONLY WITH JOHN CENA, BUT ALSO
MICKIE JAMES, STACY KEIBLER, THE MIZ, THE BIG SHOW, AND BOTH BELLA TWINS, ALL IN VARIOUS
EPISODES.
OF COURSE, NONE OF THESE SUPERSTARS WERE ACTING AS THEMSELVES, ALWAYS ABLE TO ADAPT INTO MEMORABLE
CHARACTERS WHILE PLAYING ALONG WITH SHAWN'S FAKE PSYCHIC ABILITIES.
CENA'S EPISODE IS PROBABLY THE MOST MEMORABLE, NOT ONLY FOR HIS STAR POWER, BUT ALSO THE
SHOCKING TURN THAT HE WAS THE EPISODE'S SECRET VILLAIN ALL ALONG.
PSYCH NEVER QUITE GOT THE CREDIT IT DESERVED, SO NOW THAT IT'S OVER AND USA HAS NO REASON
TO PROMOTE IT ANYMORE, WRESTLING FANS MIGHT FORGET ABOUT ALL THE GREAT REFERENCES IT CONTAINED.
11.
KANE ON SMALLVILLE.
THROUGHOUT HIS 20-YEAR CAREER AS THE DEVIL'S FAVORITE DEMON, KANE HAS WRESTLED JUST ABOUT
EVERY SINGLE WRESTLER TO COMPETE FOR WWE.
APPARENTLY, THIS EVEN INCLUDES SUPERMAN, ALTHOUGH THIS PARTICULAR MATCH WASN'T INSPIRED BY
VINCE MCMAHON'S FEVER DREAMS.
IF IT WERE UP TO VINCE, THE BIG RED MACHINE WOULD PROBABLY SQUARE OFF AGAINST THE MAN
OF STEEL HIMSELF, BUT UNFORTUNATELY, SMALLVILLE'S WRITERS AND PRODUCERS DECIDED HE WAS BETTER
SUITED TO PLAY A VILLAINOUS ALIEN MONSTER FROM THE PHANTOM ZONE NAMED TITAN.
VINCE AT LEAST WOULD HAVE BEEN PROUD THAT TITAN WAS A DESTRUCTIVE MONSTER SIMILAR TO
KANE'S STATUS IN WWE, BEATING MANY HUMANS TO A BLOODY PULP BEFORE SUPERMAN FINALLY SAVED
THE DAY.
IN FACT, REPLACE SUPERMAN WITH JOHN CENA, AND THE WHOLE THING MAY AS WELL TAKE PLACE
IN A WWE RING.
ALL THIS MEANS IS THAT EVEN THOSE WHO DON'T MUCH CARE FOR THE SUPERHERO GENRE MIGHT ENJOY
THE EPISODE IF THEY DO ENJOY WRESTLING.
10.
ROB VAN DAM ON CITY GUYS.
DESPITE AIRING ON NBC'S SATURDAY MORNING SCHEDULE FOR FIVE YEARS, CITY GUYS ISN'T
QUITE AS FONDLY REMEMBERED TODAY AS OTHER SHOWS LIKE SAVED BY THE BELL, WHICH IT WAS
PARTIALLY MODELED AFTER.
THIS MIGHT BE DUE TO THE SHOW'S UNIQUE FOCUS ON URBAN SENSIBILITIES, REJECTING MAINSTREAM
TRENDS FOR MORE ALTERNATIVE CONCEPTS, WHICH MAY NOT HAVE RESONATED WITH ITS YOUNG AUDIENCE.
FOR EXAMPLE, RATHER THAN HIRE A WWE SUPERSTAR TO GUEST STAR ON AN EPISODE ABOUT LEAD CHARACTER
EL-TRAIN'S DREAMS OF BECOMING A WRESTLER, THEY WENT WITH THEN-ECW TELEVISION CHAMPION
ROB VAN DAM.
AFTER A FEW SHORT SPARRING SESSIONS, EL-TRAIN IS COMPETENT ENOUGH IN THE RING TO SAVE RVD
FROM AN ATTACKING TAG TEAM.
UNFORTUNATELY, ALTHOUGH RVD THINKS EL-TRAIN HAD WHAT IT TOOK TO BECOME A STAR, HE REALIZED
HE WAS TOO YOUNG AND FOCUSED ON SCHOOL TO THROW IT ALL AWAY AND STICK IT OUT IN ECW
OR ANY OTHER WRESTLING ORGANIZATION.
GIVEN THERE WAS VIRTUALLY NO CROSSOVER BETWEEN THE SATURDAY MORNING CROWD AND ECW'S BLOODTHIRSTY
FAN BASE, FEW INTERESTED PARTIES EVER EVEN HEARD ABOUT THIS ONE.
9.
STING ON WALKER, TEXAS RANGER.
EVER WONDER WHAT STING WAS UP TO BETWEEN WCW GOING OUT OF BUSINESS AND DECIDING TO MAKE
A COMEBACK FOR TNA?
WELL, IN A WAY, AN ACTING CAREER BOTH IS AND ISN'T THE ANSWER.
SURE, STING, SOMETIMES CREDITED AS STEVE BORDEN, TRIED TO GET HIS FOOTING IN HOLLYWOOD, BUT
MOST OF THE RESULTS TURNED OUT LIKE HIS WEIRD APPEARANCE ON CHUCK NORRIS'S CULT CLASSIC
WALKER, TEXAS RANGER.
PORTRAYING A BIZARRE METH-DEALING BIKER NAMED GRANGUS, STING DIDN'T LOOK ANYTHING LIKE
STING, AND IT WASN'T JUST THE FACT HE UNDERSTANDABLY DECIDED NOT TO WEAR HIS FACE PAINT.
LIKE MOST EPISODES OF WALKER, THE ACTION IS MORE RIDICULOUS AND SILLY THAN IT IS QUALITY
ENTERTAINMENT, BUT FANS OF CONAN O'BRIEN'S WALKER LEVER WILL SURELY FIND THINGS TO APPRECIATE.
FANS OF THE STINGER, ON THE OTHER HAND, MIGHT JUST QUESTION HIS CAREER CHOICES.
8.
KEVIN NASH ON NIKKI.
THOUGH HER CAREER HAS LARGELY STAGNATED TODAY, THERE WAS ACTUALLY A POINT IN THE LATE 1990S
WHEN NIKKI COX FELT LIKE SOMETHING OF A CLASSIC TV "IT GIRL."
IN ADDITION TO STARRING ON THE WB'S HAPPILY EVER AFTER, SHE HAD HIGH-PROFILE GUEST APPEARANCES
ON A HALF DOZEN OTHER SERIES, LEADING TO HER OWN PROGRAM CALLED NIKKI.
STRANGELY, IT WAS GIVING HER ALL THE SPOTLIGHT THAT SLOWLY CAUSED NIKKI'S FAME TO WANE,
WHICH IS WHY MOST WWE FANS PROBABLY DON'T EVEN KNOW ONE OF THE MAIN PLOTLINES ON THE
SHOW FOCUS ON THE FACT HER HUSBAND IS A PROFESSIONAL WRESTLER.
OF COURSE, HE'S NOT A VERY GOOD WRESTLER, AS HE'S REALLY JUST A MERE JOBBER WHO NEVER
APPEARS ON NOTEWORTHY CARDS — EXCEPT ONE FATEFUL NIGHT WHEN HE WRESTLES THE PROMOTION'S
TOP STAR, THE BIG EASY, PORTRAYED BY KEVIN NASH.
IN A RELATIVELY PROGRESSIVE MOVE FOR A WRESTLER AT THE TIME, IT'S EVENTUALLY REVEALED THAT
NASH'S CHARACTER IS GAY, BUT HE HAS TO MASK HIS FEELINGS AND PRETEND HE LOVES WOMEN TO
EARN THE WRESTLING COMMUNITY'S RESPECT.
STILL, THE SHOW'S LOW PROFILE MADE IT EASY FOR THE UNDERLYING MESSAGE TO REACH MANY FANS.
7.
"CLASSY" FREDDIE BLASSIE ON THE DICK VAN DYKE SHOW.
TWO FULL DECADES BEFORE HULK HOGAN EVEN THOUGHT ABOUT APPEARING IN HIS FIRST MOVIE, FUTURE
HULKSTER MANAGER AND WWE HALL OF FAMER "CLASSY" FREDDIE BLASSIE POPPED UP ON AN EPISODE OF
THE DICK VAN DYKE SHOW.
TO THIS DAY, THE COMEDIC STYLINGS OF ROB AND LAURA PETRIE AND ALL THEIR FRIENDS IS RECOGNIZED
AS SOME OF THE FUNNIEST SITCOMS IN HISTORY, BUT TRUTH BE TOLD, BLASSIE'S GUEST-STARRING
ROLE DIDN'T HAPPEN ON ONE OF THE BEST HALF HOURS.
RATHER THAN FOCUS ON COMEDY, THE MAIN POINT OF HIS EPISODE WAS A GUEST STAR NAMED RANDY
TWIZZLE, SINGER OF A CATCHY ROCK AND ROLL NUMBER CALLED "THE TWIZZLE."
AFTER MULTIPLE SINGING AND DANCING MONTAGES, ROB'S COWORKER SALLY ROGERS CLAIMS SHE'S
DISCOVERED A DANCE CRAZE EVEN BIGGER THAN "THE TWIZZLE" CALLED "THE TWAZZLE,"
BRINGING OUT THE ICONIC CHAMPION WRESTLER TO PERFORM HIS MOVE.
APPARENTLY, "THE TWAZZLE" IS BASICALLY A FIREMAN'S CARRY, WHICH BLASSIE NATURALLY
PERFORMS ON VAN DYKE.
EVEN THOUGH IT WASN'T THAT FUNNY OR MEMORABLE, SEEING A MAJOR WRESTLER ON A SITCOM WAY BACK
IN 1962 WAS NOTABLE IN ITS OWN RIGHT.
6.
THE ROCK ON THAT '70S SHOW.
NOSTALGIA IS HARDLY A NEW CONCEPT, AND BACK IN THE 1990S, THE FOX NETWORK USED IT TO CREATE
A HIT SITCOM BLATANTLY OWING INTO THE CONCEPT, SIMPLY CALLED THAT '70S SHOW.
OF COURSE, NO SHOW CAN SURVIVE ON A THROWBACK SETTING ALONE, WITH THE TERSE RELATIONSHIP
BETWEEN LEAD CHARACTER ERIC FOREMAN AND HIS FATHER RED SERVING AS ONE OF THE MAIN PLOTLINES.
FOR ALL THEIR DIFFERENCES, ONE THING ERIC AND RED ACTUALLY HAVE IN COMMON TURNS OUT
TO BE A SHARED LOVE FOR PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING, THOUGH IT DOES TAKE THE OLD MAN A LITTLE BIT
OF CONVINCING BEFORE REALIZING HE SHARES HIS SON'S INTEREST.
IT'S THE WORK OF THE MOST ELECTRIFYING MAN IN SPORTS ENTERTAINMENT THAT DOES THE TRICK,
THE CATCH BEING THE ROCK PLAYING HIS FATHER, ROCKY JOHNSON, IN HIS APPEARANCE.
WHILE THE GREAT ONE IS OBVIOUSLY THE HIGHLIGHT, HE DIDN'T COME ALONE, AS FELLOW WWE SUPERSTARS
KEN SHAMROCK, THE HARDY BOYZ, AND ERNIE LADD WERE ALL ON BOARD, TOO, AS WAS MARTIAL ARTS
ICON GENE LEBELL.
BRIDGING MULTIPLE GENERATIONS, THIS IS ONE ANY FAN OF '70S, '90S, OR MODERN WRESTLING
COULD ALL ENJOY.
5.
"MACHO MAN" RANDY SAVAGE ON DEXTER'S LABORATORY.
LIKE MANY CARTOON NETWORK CLASSICS, DEXTER'S LABORATORY WAS ACTUALLY SEVERAL SHOWS IN ONE,
AND THE TITULAR BOY GENIUS NEVER ACTUALLY INTERACTS WITH WWE HALL OF FAMER "MACHO
MAN" RANDY SAVAGE IN HIS GUEST APPEARANCE.
PORTRAYING AN INTERGALACTIC WRESTLING CHAMPION NAMED RASSLOR, SAVAGE NONETHELESS DID MANAGE
TO SQUARE OFF WITH JUST ABOUT EVERY OTHER CHARACTER ON THE SHOW, MOST NOTABLY DEXTER'S
PET PRIMATE/SECRET SUPERHERO MONKEY.
RASSLOR'S MODUS OPERANDI IS CHALLENGING EVERY FIGHTER ON A GIVEN PLANET TO A DUEL,
AND IF NONE CAN STAND AGAINST HIM, HE BLOWS THE WHOLE PLACE UP AND MOVES ON TO THE NEXT.
EARTH'S SUPERHEROES ARE NO MATCH TO HIS MACHO MADNESS, BUT THE INDOMITABLE SPIRIT
OF THE LITTLE MONKEY, WHO REFUSES TO GIVE UP AFTER GETTING BEATEN TO A PULP MULTIPLE
TIMES, SLOWLY MAKES HIM REALIZE HUMANITY MIGHT BE WORTH SAVING — EVEN IF WE ARE ALL A BUNCH
OF WEAKLINGS REPRESENTED BY A MONKEY.
IN A WAY, IT'S KIND OF BEAUTIFUL, AND CAN MAKE EVEN A PESSIMIST SHOUT, "OOOOH, YEAH!"
4.
TRIPLE H ON THE DREW CAREY SHOW.
SO BEGINS THE WRESTLING CAREER OF A WWE HALL OF FAMER.
NOW THAT DREW CAREY HAS FOUND HIS PLACE IN POP CULTURE AS THE SECOND HOST OF THE PRICE
IS RIGHT, MOST TV VIEWERS HAVE FORGOTTEN ALL ABOUT THE NINE YEARS HE HAD HIS OWN SITCOM.
THE DREW CAREY SHOW WAS PRETTY TYPICAL OF ITS ERA, BUT STILL MANAGED TO WIN OVER A DECENT
AMOUNT OF FANS THROUGH ITS FLAMBOYANTLY WEIRD SIDE CHARACTERS LIKE OSWALD, LEWIS, AND THE
COLORFULLY PAINTED MIMI.
FOR ONE EPISODE, DREW MADE ANOTHER MEMORABLE ACQUAINTANCE IN FAMED WRESTLER THE DISCIPLINARIAN,
PLAYED BY THEN-WWE INTERCONTINENTAL CHAMPION TRIPLE H. THE ICONIC BELT ACTUALLY MADE ITS
WAY TO THE PROGRAM ALONG WITH HIM AND IS PICTURED ABOVE AROUND THE WAIST OF DREW'S FRIEND
KATE O'BRIEN.
IN THAT SCENE, THE CHAMP HIMSELF IS PASSED OUT DRUNK ON BUZZ BEER, WHICH HE LATER SPEAKS
OUT AGAINST IN AN ANTI-DRINKING PSA.
LUCKILY FOR BUZZ BEER OWNER DREW, HARDCORE DRINKERS SEE THIS AS AN ENDORSEMENT, WANTING
TO PROVE THEY CAN WITHSTANDING THE BREW THAT KNOCKED OUT THE CHAMP.
TRIPLE H MIGHT WANT PEOPLE FORGETTING ABOUT THIS ONE, BUT THAT ONLY MAKES IT FUNNIER IN
RETROSPECT.
3.
DOZENS OF WCW WRESTLERS ON BAYWATCH.
JUST BECAUSE A GIVEN WRESTLER'S APPEARANCE ON A CERTAIN SHOW DOESN'T MAKE ANY GODDAMN
SENSE WHATSOEVER DOESN'T NECESSARILY MEAN IT ISN'T STILL AWESOME.
SOMEHOW, WHEN ENOUGH GARBAGE TV MIXES TOGETHER INTO ONE SPECTACULAR EXPLOSION OF WEIRD, THE
RESULTS ARE MUCH MORE ENTERTAINING THAN THE SUM OF ITS PARTS.
IN 1995, THE STAGNANT WCW PRODUCT AND A LITTLE SHOW CALLED BAYWATCH PROVED THIS BY GETTING
TOGETHER TO PROMOTE A DIFFERENT KIND OF BASH AT THE BEACH.
WRESTLING FANS WERE EXTREMELY BORED BY HULK HOGAN'S FEUD AGAINST KEVIN SULLIVAN AND
HIS DUNGEON OF DOOM, BUT FOR WHATEVER REASON, SEEING IT UNFOLD IN FRONT OF A CONFUSED AND
BORED PAMELA ANDERSON MADE IT SOMETHING SPECIAL.
VADER, RIC FLAIR, AND "MACHO MAN" RANDY SAVAGE WERE ALL ON BOARD AS WELL, LIKEWISE
PRODUCING GOLD.
EVEN LESS REMEMBERED IS THE FACT SHAWN MICHAELS ALSO APPEARED ON THE SHOW THE NEXT YEAR.
UNFORTUNATELY, HE PLAYED A COMPLETELY FICTIONAL CHARACTER THAT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH WRESTLING.
2.
VADER AND JAKE ROBERTS ON BOY MEETS WORLD.
CORY MATTHEWS AND FRIENDS WANDERED THROUGH THIS ROAD THAT WE CALL LIFE IN A MANNER NO
'90S KID COULD EVER FORGET.
ANYONE ALIVE AT THE TIME WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER BOY MEETS WORLD AND ITS CLASSIC MOMENTS, YET
WE COULD EASILY SEE YOUNGER VIEWERS MISSING OUT ON THE FUN, INCLUDING THE MULTIPLE EPISODES
THEY DEDICATED ENTIRELY TO PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING.
BEING TEENAGERS IN THE MID 1990S, IT MADE TOTAL SENSE THAT CORY AND SHAWN WOULD BE BIG
FANS OF WWE, AND THEY REALLY LUCKED OUT IN THAT REGARD AFTER LEARNING THEIR BULLY-TURNED-FRIEND
FRANKIE STECCHINO WAS THE SON OF NONE OTHER THAN BIG VAN VADER.
THE MOST MEMORABLE OF VADER'S SEVERAL EPISODES WAS DEFINITELY THE ONE CENTERED AROUND HIS
BIG MATCH AGAINST JAKE "THE SNAKE" ROBERTS, THE WINNER OF WHICH WOULD GO ON, IN FRANKIE'S
WORDS, "THE WINNER IS IN LINE FOR A SHOT AT THE BELT AGAINST SEAN MICHAELS AT MADISON
SQUARE GARDEN."
WITH FRANKIE, SHAWN, AND CORY'S HILARIOUSLY SIMPLISTIC ADVICE, VADER MANAGES TO WIN THE
BIG ONE, GROWLING HIS WAY INTO OUR CHILDHOODS FOREVER.
1.
"ROWDY" RODDY PIPER ON IT'S ALWAYS SUNNY IN PHILADELPHIA.
OF ALL THE GREAT PERFORMANCES HIGHLIGHTED ON THIS LIST, THERE'S NO DOUBT IN OUR MINDS
THE GREATEST OF ALL WAS "ROWDY" RODDY PIPER'S TWO-EPISODE STINT AS THE MANIAC
ON IT'S ALWAYS SUNNY IN PHILADELPHIA.
THE ICONIC WWE HALL OF FAMER HAD ALREADY PROVEN HIMSELF AS A GREAT ACTOR IN THE SCI-FI CLASSIC
THEY LIVE, AND HIS INTERVIEWS GUARANTEED EVERYONE WAS WELL AWARE OF PIPER'S INCREDIBLE COMEDIC
WIT.
STILL, HE COMPLETELY TRANSFORMED INTO A PSYCHOTIC AND VERY LITERAL MANIAC EACH TIME HE HUNG
OUT WITH THE GANG.
QUITE FRANKLY, IT'S HARD TO IMAGINE ANYONE WHO CALLS THEMSELVES A FAN OF ALWAYS SUNNY
OR PIPER EVER FORGETTING THIS ONE, AS LITERALLY EVERYTHING HIS CHARACTER SAYS AND DOES IS
OUTRAGEOUSLY FUNNY.
WHO COULD FORGET HIM NEARLY BREAKING THE PADDY'S PHONE IN A FIT OF RAGE OVER $15, OR THE FACT
HE CARRIES AROUND BARBED WIRE AND BUCKETS OF CHESTNUTS IN HIS CAR?
THAT SAID, IT WAS JUST TOO GOOD FOR US TO LEAVE OFF THE LIST.
ALSO, IT'S GOOD FOR THE SOUL TO TAKE THE TIME AND REMEMBER THE MANIAC LOVES YOU.
