    Saw her tonight in the preview for the new celeb rehab show on VH-1, where she's addicted to "prescription pills."

  5. What a mess she is right now. Just another victim of the industry.

    Suppose wrestling was real (like everything involved). What finishers could actually knock a grown man out?

    Awesome Raw, especially the opener and main event. Bringing back Jericho and Flair and letting Santino loose has made this show so much more watchable and enjoyable.

    But seriously, what the fuck was with that Hornswaggle segment? That was late-WCW shit, embarassing to watch.

    If done correctly, a DDT or a pile driver can break a man's neck, or compress vertebrae at the least.

    The sleeper hold, in reality, is a choke. A rear naked choke can make a man pass out. So could a guillotine (front chancery or facelock).

    A crossface is painful, but not inescapable. A full nelson is more difficult to get out of and is painful as hell.

    Any move where you can drop a guy on his head is dangerous, but you have to remember, the guy isn't going to willingly go up for you like they do in wrestling.

    Most finishers (figure four, STF, et al) are painful as hell, but you'd have to be almost passed out to allow someone to put you in one.

    Help me out here. At the beginning when Flair was talking up the crowd, did he say "Charlotte, North Carolina...My town!!!!!"

    (Tombstone) Piledriver for sure, if performed to cause harm.

    That wasn't so much WCW as it was Looney Tunes. Embarrassing.

    But oh, to be the third participant in that Mickie-Melina match and make an EmbassyRow sandwich...
