so i have this shameful secret. i'm a closet wrestling fan. yup, since i was a kid i've had some strange desire to watch fake fighting, where i can accurately predict what is going to happen. although i'm not rabid fan, buying pay-per-views or books written by men who spend more time in the gym than a book of any type, childrens or audio. however, i do keep as up to date as i need too, just as any other soap opera follower. what compelled me to speak about this now is reading an article that made me re-realize (like i hadn't thought this before) how much of a waste it is to spend my time watching this stuff.
Since poor Hogan can't move, and since the skin around his chest is wound tighter than Nicole Kidman's forehead, we're headed for a steady diet of shoves, shoulder blocks, arm locks, headlocks, elbows, punches, chest slaps and kicks … in other words, it's just like every Hulk Hogan match. I don't know why I even brought this up...
Well, the ref just got knocked out. I think I could have predicted everything that happened in this match so far -- except for Hogan's catheter getting yanked out and urine spraying everywhere. Nobody saw that one coming.
i've kept this my dirty secret from many for a number of years. erin didn't know that i was a wrestling fan until an old roommate came to town and we had 'family night' which consisted of shawn, tiffany (his now wife), davey (said roommate), and myself going to the local sports bar for sunday night football, baseball, & wrestling pay-per-view all on the same wall of tv's. she was dumbfounded and to this day wonders what else i keep from her. i sure as heck didn't tell her of the time i wore my pastors collar (not that i earned it, got if for 75% of at cokesbury tent sale on year) to a wwe match here in town when one of the wrestlers just happened to be a 'reverend.' i certainly don't give her the historical account of the wrestlers.. 'this guy used to be bad, but then he just happened to stick up for someone so now he's good and they changed his name... that name stunk so they put a mask on him now he's bad again.'
yes, for some reason, hulk-a-mania rules, no matter how lame it makes me. that's my shameful secret...
ps: i'm throwing jonathon under the bus, he claims pacifism, but yet he's addicted to ultimate fighter championship.
