This post started off as one of the dumbest I've ever read... then the "Holly Hobby" got me chuckling... then the Konami Cheat Code (complete with Konami symbol) had me falling over laughing.
By the time I read the Venom Symbiote part, this was one of the greatest I've seen in a long time. Weird.

Originally posted by AlessandroAfter entering the ring, Holly produces a NES controller from his jeans, enters UP, DOWN, UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT, A, B, A, B and then hits START. Now he squares off against Lesnar with 30 extra lives.
I agree with the entire post except for one thing...
The Contra cheat code was "up, down, up, down, left, right, left, right, B, A, B, A, Start" :-)
If it were a two on one match, with two Bob Holly's vs. One Lesnar, woudl that be:
Up, Down, Up, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A, B, A, Select, Start? ;-)

It really is a fantastic post (which is why I'm happy so many people are seeing it rather than bitching it's not helping our hit count to read it here), but the Donovan McNabb afro symbiote literally had me annoying co-workers with my laughter... and I didn't even know anything about Venom except he shows up with Spiderman sometimes.

Originally posted by The GoonI don't see why whoever wrote that hates Bob Holly so much. The guy has been kind of inspiring since returning from a broken neck and he's a legit tough guy, so it'd be nice putting the title on someone different for once.
Count me in as pro-Holly for the Rumble.
You can't be serious.
Why can't he be serious?? Just because YOU don't like Hardcore?? I'm with the Goon...but then you knew that already!
Cheers,

Count me in as the same question Spaceman asked. Not really the pro-Bob Holly for WWE champion, even thought that alone is a little strange... But the reasoning. Because he's a legit tough guy? What year are we in, is the WWE worried that someone will take the title and move to another territory and if so they take away from Brock Lenser and put it on Bob Holly!? I couldn't tell if Goon was being sarcastic or not, Bob Holly is inspirational? Okay it's always nice to come back from an injury, but don't know if I'd call this story inspiring
What is inspiring is having Bob Holly use the Konami cheat code... I also got a soft spot for the Super Mario Bros. Invincibility Star. 30 Seconds of power, match ends in the 34 second mark hehe cute.
smark/net attack wienerville advisory is on ORANGE alert - High (Due to Bob Holly WWE Title match, Kliq/Kliq PPV World Title match, Mae Young appearance) 1/6
Get your WWE CD copy autographed by Stone Cold Steve Austin, Chris Jericho, Trish Stratus and Lilian Garcia after Raw... Oh MY! Christmas has come late. Can't get better then that.
Taking the piss out of someone who died not long ago ie Crash Holly is tight u screwed up piece of fuck. What's wrong with Hardcore, he's worked 15 years and had some good matches.
Brock Lesnar vs. Hardcore Holly Royal Rumble 2004
You looked at that 2 years ago what would you say.
Who tha FUCK is BROCK LESNAR!!!?
Lesnar would be nothing nowadays like John Heindriech if Vince didn't want to recreate as many storylines as possible.
UNDEFEATED SUPERSTAR/MONSTER MAKES PATH TO WORLD TITLE!?
Not to beat a dead horse (which, I realize, I am) but Brock is a scary fast, crisp, charismatic wrestler with an accomplished background in amateur wrestling, whereas Heidenreich is a green, uncharismatic lump of nothing. Even if you switched their gimmicks when they entered the company, Heidenreich would never have gotten over.
Just to clarify, I wasn't being sarcastic. Because Smackdown is on 5-7pm here in Calgary, I rarely get a chance to watch it, but I did catch it just before and after the Christmas season, and I think there was something with Bob having to run a gauntlet to get the shot with Brock, and I really got a kick out of him beating the odds.
I know it's a "markish" thing to say, but I still tend to back the face coming back against insurmountable odds to defeat the cocky heel. Same deal with Benoit getting a shot in the Rumble-finding the only loophole to get around Heyman's nefarious plan.
While Bob Holly may not be the best choice as champ (in most people's books) I'm certain we could all agree that it would be best to put the title on someone who isn't injured and CAN actually defend it.
I'll give anyone a chance, and I'd like to see Holly get his.

Just on the off chance that Holly does win it, where can I go to see this? I'll even pay money to see this.
I stand behind it. I'll take digitals and post them.
For what it's worth, I used to like Hardcore Holly. He was one of my top 5 favorites for a long time. But his act is stale as shit, and it was never that good to begin with.
The best work he ever did was when he was attacking Big Show and the Undertaker, calling himself a Super-Heavyweight.
I'm actually looking forward to the match because i reckon its going to be brutal with brock bumpin' like a madman but still retaining his title with a quick F5

I don't live to far from you (State College), so give me a shout when Holly wins the title *snicker*

Someone like...Brock Lesnar?
He had his knee scoped, and it took a bit longer to heal up. He hasn't wrestled for a few weeks, big deal. I'm sure if they absolutely needed him to wrestle, Lesnar would have done it.

Roddy Piper's official website says that he has been approached to referee the match between Hogan and McMahon at Wrestlemania, but I have yet to see this info anywhere else. Anyone have any insight or is Piper just spreading rumours?
