It Came From YouTube

In their time away from wrestling, Ruby Soho and Angelo Parker were married, had a baby, and opened their own wrestling-themed board game cafe. The duo went onto their local news to promote the delightfully-named “Victory Roll Cafe“. If you’re in Mishawaka, Indiana any time soon, I’ll join you for some snacks and a round of Stratego.

They may not have been at the top of the WWF tag team division in the 80’s, but The Killer Bees and the Young Stallions were good enough to be in an Australian Toyota commercial. Just look at them jump for joy at the thought of driving that truck around the outback instead of having to put the ring together. Now that I’m thinking about it this was probably around the time Outback Jack debuted. I’d say it’s a missed opportunity, but ehhhhh it’s probably for the best.

Fanatics Fest was this past weekend and a number of wrestlers were there to sign autographs and take pictures. Not only that, but they were there to do some sports challenges for some reason. One of these events involved kicking a soccer ball, which, judging by this video, is something Cody Rhodes has never done before. Maybe it’s a spacing problem or a timing issue, but Rhodes looks a little unsure of himself. He’s no Messi, but at least the ball moved forward and he didn’t hurt himself.

Wunderbar! It’s a commercial for a classic special of WCW’s Beach Blast 1992, but in German. Mein Deutsch ist nicht sehr gut, but it sounds like a great time. There’s an Iron Man Challenge, Sting vs. Cactus Jack and a Bikini Contest. Nothing bad about that, right? Right?

I wonder how many food fights, food-based matches, and um, food-based wrestling promotions actually exist. It has to be a lot, right? Like, way more than we think. I’m not really sure why. It seems very wasteful. A good example is this WWE 4th of July food fight. Did it need happen? Did it need to eat up (pun intended) so much television time? No, but I’m sure it delighted exactly one person and that was enough.

What does it have to do with the 4th of July? Nothing, really. But hey. all your WWE favorites are here: the Vaudevillians! Breezango! The Shining Stars! The Social Outcasts!

Hmmm. Now I kind of feel bad for the food for being involved in this.
