When I read the e-mail I thought it was going to be a shoot interview with Kitao. This would of course be different.
Interesting clip.
ReplyDeleteWouldn't it have been cool to see Earthquake *work* this style? He was much more intimidating.
ReplyDeleteFred Kitao.
ReplyDeleteIf you were quake, you'd be dead and the world would be a better place.
ReplyDeleteIs that really necessary?
ReplyDeleteIt's a shame Earthquake wasn't Brock.
ReplyDeleteRacism makes me angry.
ReplyDeleteRise above racism... make poopy jokes instead!
ReplyDeleteThey were both kind of out of line here really...
ReplyDeleteSomeone flagged Dougie's post and I'm going to approve it. Ziggaman used a racist slur and that's worse yet he got 2 upvotes...smh.
ReplyDeleteRacist slur, really?
ReplyDeleteWhat a prick. He's lucky that Tenta was such a professional and put the industry first, cause Quake would have kicked the shit out of him
ReplyDeleteIt's hard being an enlightened wrestling fan.
ReplyDeleteWho the fuck uses "nip" in 2013 anyways? What is this, the 1940s?
ReplyDeleteSo address the racism instead of taking a shot at a dead guy.
ReplyDeleteI wasn't even aware that "nip" was a racial slur until today.
ReplyDeleteRead his post again, he was saying Ziggaman would be dead and the world would be a better place. That's not an insult towards Earthquake.
ReplyDeleteYeah, if you're going to be a racist, at least try to be a modern one, I guess. Unless you're Pierce from Community.
ReplyDeleteThe BoD, a place to learn about wrestling psychology, Brock's shitty booking, sexual harassment and racial slurs. It's fan-tas-tic!
ReplyDeleteI didn't need the blog to learn about Brock's shitty booking.
ReplyDeleteTrue dat.
ReplyDeleteThat's how I read it... and no offense Zigga, but I'd trade you for Tenta in a heartbeat. So would most of us here, as long as it wasn't our own lives being traded.
ReplyDeleteThat is fucking crazy! Different times for sure. There's a whole sleuth of racist cartoons from the 30s and 40s that are simply breath taking.
ReplyDeleteSry if i offended anyone is all i can say i guess.
ReplyDeleteI rememeber seeing that. As a matter of fact....
ReplyDeletehttp://www.cracked.com/article_20382_5-fan-theories-about-cartoons-that-will-ruin-your-childhood.html
I thought it was a typo on zip.
ReplyDeleteI flagged your post. FUCK THE MAN!
ReplyDeleteI'd read cracked more often if they went back to doing more articles like that and less of the "6 life lessons you learn from your alcoholic dad throwing bottles at you" maudlin crap.
ReplyDeleteI figured it was one of the British BoDers using one of those terms that doesn't really make any sense to anyone who isn't either from England or a big fan of Guy Ritchie films and Top Gear.
ReplyDeleteIs nip a racist slur? I thought he was just referring to Kitao's possibly dark nipples.
ReplyDeleteI always knew Tenryu was the cooler one.
ReplyDeleteOh cult, we used to be such BoD buddies...
ReplyDeletehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ethnic_slurs#N
ReplyDeleteScroll down to the N's.
Yeah, back when I didn't know you were an undercover cop.
ReplyDeleteFunny story, I've only banned one user since becoming an "undercover cop". No one legit and I don't even care about Dougie and the other folks that come by and have questionable posts.
ReplyDeleteOne night, this dude opened an account as "Thor Cock". I thought it was a funny user name, but he just started spamming threads with "Thor Cock" as his post. I started deleting the posts and blacklisting. He then must've opened 5 e-mail accounts under "Thor Ccko", "Thor Cokc", Thro Ckco", you get the idea and spamming his name over and over again until I killed his IP. People are weird.
If things were only slightly different, about ten years ago around this time i'd have just been starting training for wrestling with John Tenta, and today i'd be some fatso on the indie scene bitching about how I'm a better worker than anyone in WWE but its all politics, man. Ahh what could have been....
ReplyDeleteYou must have banned him quick, I don't even remember that, what thread was it in?
ReplyDeleteIt was a month or so ago, so I can't remember the threads, there were multiple. I use the Mod dashboard to do postings and such so I happen to be on posting about something else when it started. Made me laugh in a "humans are sad" sort of way.
ReplyDeleteWow I didn't know half of these.
ReplyDeleteThere are seriously a lack of harsh ones against white people though. Squarehead? Louis CK was right.
All these words are benign unless you were oppressed and then they take meaning. If whites were enslaved by blacks, instead of what actually happened, nigger would probably be looked at as benign while cracker would be a terrible slur.
ReplyDeleteWhat's this dude Kiatos deal? Is he a big name over there? From the sounds of some of the posts people don't seem all that surprised by him doing this...guessing he's kinda a nut?
ReplyDeleteLooking through that list I found peckerwood and apparently there is a group called Peckerwood Law whose members are required to physically harm any other white person who has been convicted of child molestation. Don't know why that matters lol.
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine being that bored, especially while sitting in front of a computer. Don't people like that know that in 5 minutes you can be playing just about any old school video game you want? Or that there's TONS of free porn? Or any number of things you can do on the internet, almost all of which are a better use of time than what that jerkass was doing.
ReplyDeleteOr go outside and get some exercise. Seriously, the internet is the greatest and worst invention of mankind...at the same time.
ReplyDeleteWhat a boring video. Nothing really happened.
ReplyDeleteWe white folks don't even have a slur bad enough to get offended about. I mean, if someone called me "cracker" or "honkey" I'd probably laugh at them.
ReplyDeleteNo doubt about that. It's kind of like a lot of things though, a few idiots have to fuck it up for everyone else.
ReplyDeleteWASN'T ME, PEOPLE. IM ONE OF YOU
ReplyDeleteGUYS, PETITION THAT KEITH WOULD ALLOW ME TO POST FUN WRESTLING LISTS FOR YOU GUYS. I HAVE A COLLECTION OF AWESOME WRESTLING MATCHES TURN INTO SHOOTS. I WOULD EVEN GO BY A DIFFERENT ALIAS AND POST TO YOUR FITTING.
ReplyDeleteIM A GOOD GUY, JUST GIMME THE CHANCE!!!! I WANNA HAVE FUNNNNNNNNNN
Don't you mean "jockass"? Or did I watch No Holds Barred too many times?
ReplyDeleteI want to see the list!
ReplyDelete^^ Basically. He was banned from Sumo wrestling in the late 80's, then jumped into pro wrestling and was soon kicked out of just about every promotion he wrestled in after that for being a douchebag and shooting on people occasionaly
ReplyDeleteJohn Cheese and David Wong majorly suck, but everybody else is pretty good.
ReplyDeleteJust to let you know, that is single worst way to apologize. You're not apologizing for you racist remark, you are apologizing for hurting anyone with thin skin; in this case, anyone of Japanese descent or anyone with a sense of decency. But hey, xenophobia's fine in wrestling so why not in the IWC? Maybe you didn't mean it like that, though most everyone who phrases it like that is pig-headed, so I'm just going to assume you're a closed-minded bigot to save myself the time. Thanks for being a reason I can't admit to being a wrestling fan.
ReplyDeleteMar Solo is the reason I can't admit it.
ReplyDeleteRacism is retarded. Hate everyone equally without prejudice and you're golden. Or something.
ReplyDeleteDougie don't seem so abd thse days because I delete his most trollllish comments before they start fights. Despite me n him hating each othe r I'm the mofucker keepein him alive.
ReplyDeleteThe first time I got back to the UK after visiting America, almost everyone had the same question for me.
ReplyDelete"What (the fuck) are grits?"
Oh, and we'd say uh, 'Chink' if we were being racist about the Chinese. I uh, hope that helps.
No, Quake would not have kicked the shit out of him. There is a reason why Kitao was a yokozuna, while Tenta quit when the going got rough.
ReplyDeleteIt's a Huge World after all.
ReplyDeleteI got scolded by my Junior High social studies teacher for saying AY-rab instead of saying AIR-ab. That was the only way all of the adults around me ever pronounced Arab!
ReplyDeleteKitao also had the reputation of being one of the weakest yokozunas, however.
ReplyDeleteDon't give up. There's a fella by the name of Chad Bryant who can teach you how to snapmare with the best of them and he posts on this very board from time to time.
ReplyDeleteThe weakest yokozuna is still more respected than the strongest ozeki. He had to be pretty impressive to get that promotion without winning a single grand tournament.
ReplyDeleteTenta won three tournaments against mostly junior high school kids, and when he finally rose to the level of suitable competition he got "homesick" and quit.
The fact that he died of cancer doesn't change the fact that John Tenta was a pussy who backed down from a challenge.
Is this for real? I 100% disagree with this. I don't delete any posts unless someone is spamming. If someone hangs themselves, they hang themselves. It's not up to us to censor Scott's blog...imo.
ReplyDeleteYou also take it much more seriously than I do. I don't do it often, only when it turns into outright trolling or flaming.
ReplyDeleteTake what seriously, deleting posts? Umm, sort of.
ReplyDeleteNo, I meant jerkass. One of Homer Simpson's expressions.
ReplyDeleteJohn Cheese is fucking awful.
ReplyDeleteI'm American and I've never seen grits in person, it's mostly a Southern thing and I live up North.
ReplyDeleteBTW, "chink" is the most common anti-Asian slur over here too.
I GOT AT LEAST 20 VIDEOS. KEITH MAKE IT HAPPEN PLEASE
ReplyDeleteWell to my mind, when an argument runs out of steam and just turns into "you're a fucking moron" "no you are", i'd rather just quietly put it out of its misery than to leave it up and have to give everyone a stern talking to like I'm the fucking school principal. I'm never going to delete anything that is arguing a point or even a particularly funny insult, just the childish name calling shit that has no place here and generally doesn't happen that much anyway. Imagine it like I'm a nurse and these useless comments are a terminal elderly patient, I'm just quietly drowning them in the bathtub and everyone probably just assumes its Disqus fucking up. I regret nothing!
ReplyDeleteHe's really bad.
ReplyDeleteJust an incredibly unfunny, myopic writer.
"Hey guys, I'm an alcoholic who grew up poor and I still have issues about that, pay attention to me!"
What bothers me about him is whole "I quit smoking and drinking so I'm better and smarter than everyone else" attitude. He just seems like the type of guy that you would want to punch in the head within 2 minutes of meeting him.
