NO NO NO NO NO NO NO.
If you wanna do fantasy booking, go start an efed. And be sure NOT to share it with us.
That being said, I have this GREAT fantasy booking scheme that results in "Gentleman" Chris Adams as Undisputed Champion...

I love it when someone gets the joke, I hate it when someone ruins the joke.

Had I known your first post was ironic/sarcastic, I wouldn't have posted anything. :>

How appropriate to see the word "slash" next to the term "fantasy booking". I wonder if CZim ever gets emails from angry young lads searching for Hardy Boyz pr0n (based on the name of the site)? | eviljonhunt81

| #15 Posted on 16.4.02 0207.16 Reposted on: 16.4.09 0207.20 | To be truly specific, slash is fan fiction about male-male relationships. Almost all of it's written by women. The term originated with Star Trek stories about Kirk and Spock, generally abbreviated "K/S". It doesn't have to be X-rated. But it usually is. ;-)
Obviously wrestling is the perfect raw material, to coin a phrase. That's right, I know WAY too much about this subject...

You know how men like the idea of women fooling around with each other? Works both ways, though admittedly not for everyone. There have been actual academic papers written on slash fan fiction, so the phenomenon is well documented.
Better take this one to email if you're STILL curious!

Go rent the documentary "Trekkies". It was funny to me, because I was part of that cult once. I threw lots of dollars away in high school on going to conventions when I should have been trying to get laid.
Anyway, the reason they gave in that movie for the Kirk/Spock stuff was something about these women not believing that any women was worthy of either of them or that they would be jealous of a woman having sex with them (keep in mind these are FICTIONAL CHARACTERS). So, since no woman was good enough for either Kirk or Spock, they end up in a gay relationship for some reason.
They also had a Trekkie cross-dresser in that movie too, but I think I've digressed way too much. Anyway, rent it, because it makes you take pity and want to get into the cult at the same time. | Scar
