Yes, the man responsible for inventing most words in the English language, the man who had a vocabulary of some 29,000 words...I'm sure lowest common denominator entertainment such as WWE would have thrilled him to his very core. :dozey:

Don't go over-glamourising Shakespeare - he boiled down average pot-boiler plots into something the masses could understand and get behind. The reason his works have survived is they were *so* accessible to the masses and were therefore preserved. Nowadays we have a very distorted perception of the theatre as entertainment for the better-off, whereas Bill made his mark appealing to the average man in the street. And he certainly didn't invent most of the English language - we nicked most of that from the Norse and Germanic countries.

Anyway, Cena for the win!

That may be true, but as an individual I doubt he would have enjoyed Wrestlemania. Why am I arguing this point? Ah well.

So, wrestlemania...who is the best wrestlemaniac nowadays? Bushwhackers?

Moved to Entertainment.

You'll find out exactly how 'fake' wrestling once you try it. Until then, just appreciate what the guys do.

Ah - they were excellent though i preferred Nobbs and Saggs of the Nazty Boys (or was it with a 'z' - I imagine so)....

I expect Papa Shango to taste victory ;-)

I've never tried it but they say it's tougher than UFC, I'm sure you've all heard of UFC?

Re: Wrestlemania on Sunday 1st April 2007?
 

And for anyone that hasn't

Here's the wikipedia entry

Re: Wrestlemania on Sunday 1st April 2007?
 

I don't know about tougher, I'd suggest it's just as tough but in a different way. The risks are high but again, in a different form.

Re: Wrestlemania on Sunday 1st April 2007?
 

I had seen a little DVD about the training the WWE wrestlers do and it's quite intense. And UFC sometimes broadcast the training their fighters do and it's not that intense. Some former WWE (WWF) wrestlers are on UFC also, some say because they couldn't hack the training regime in the WWE.

Re: Wrestlemania on Sunday 1st April 2007?
 

Some people say you have to have a few screws loose to put yourself through the training a wrestler endures.

I'd agree with that.

Nice one Sherlock. While asking a daft and irrelevant question to try and patronise and show the ignorance of someone else, you've revealed yourself to be more ignorant than anyone.

Is that his real name :shocked: :D
