For those not familiar with pro wrestling, there are these two wrestlers Edge and Christian who are the WWF tag team champs. Every week they come out and say they'll grace the crowd with a 5 second pose for the benefit of those with flash photography. They go on to do some kind of pose that insults the local sports team or some local hero, thus getting the fans to hate them so it seems like a big deal when another team comes out and kicks their ass.
Tonight on Smackdown (the WWF's Thursday night show) they promised that after they successfully retain their belts in a three way tables and ladder and chairs match this Sunday on Pay-Per-View (that's basically a really crazy match where at least two of the six participants will leave with injuries and all will leave with serious years off their careers, simply because they're all masochistic - so winning would be kind of special) they will grace the fans with a special... 37 second pose!
Maybe one of them are fans of View Askew? Are there any other funny pop culture references they could be feeding off of? Am I too much of a fan boy to think clearly about this subject?
Thoughts are welcomed :)
Later,
