In tonight's game, Marc Edward Heuck completely lets the world know he's a WRASSLIN~! fan by paraphrasing and mentioning Ric Flair.
"To be the geek, you have to beat the GEEK~! ...And you aren't doing that tonight. WHOO~!" If he had done the strut afterward, I would have spit my 7UP at the screen.
Complete PWTorch fodder, but it's cool to see that happen, since there's been minor speculation about that.
I've only seen the show a few times... Is he the one with the long hair?
Edit:
Thanks for the help (below). Immediately after posting, I rememebered Comedy Central indeed does have their own website, and yes, he is the geek I thought he was.
Come to think of it, why can't they have a wrestling geek on that show?

Edit: After having spent some time at the Beat the Geeks website, I am now left to ask how it is that for the "The Geek Speaks" articles the Movie Geek doesn't speak??? They are six of them (two by each geek) and they are all lists of topic-related stuff, but for the Music and TV geeks, they give explanations for their rankings. The Movie Geek just posts his list. Not much *speaking* involved. Am I too concerned over this???
(edited by EddieBurkett on 15.8.02 2147) I want to get up and do something. I just... can't.
Marc's got curly black hair... Andy's got the balding-but-long hair. This isn't the first time Marc's busted out wrestling catchphrases, btw. This is the second Flair one, and he also did Bret's "I'm the best there is..." one as well.
On one particular episode, the Geek-ualizer asked "Big Daddy Cool." The contestant missed it, Paul had NO CLUE, and Marc had to bail him out by explaining it was a professional wrestler.
If I get on that show, I'll challenge him (after the Music Geek), throw a couple of taunts his way, and make the "I want da medal" hand motion. Just to see if he gets it.
EDIT: "I'll challenging him"? Yeah, English was my first language...

Nah. Marc has a big thing for Top 10 lists. He does them about once a month at the NuArt theater in Los Angeles (the theater where he is manager and projectionist) as part of the Rocky Horror Picture Show there.
Also, if you read the website (as this thread just inspired me to do), in his list of things you must own to consider yourself a movie geek, he writes:
"4. A Martin Scorsese video. Any Martin Scorsese video. Show me a purported movie geek who doesn't own Scorsese, or indeed thinks Scorsese is overrated, and I'll show you a wanna-be, someone trying to appear hip and above-it-all by using controversial contrarianism to bolster their facade. Get over the hype, get over yourself. Scorsese is The Game. He is That. Damned. Good. "

Because the networks genuinely liked those shows, and they were critically well recieved. So networks were willing to let the fans come around. Azaria's show was critically panned and the network pretty much relized that they had a bomb on their hands....
