Who is the blond woman in the Chikara clip? I didn’t know they had any other women wrestlers besides Saturine. After years of sitting through your adverts I’ll finally take the chance and shell out for the Chikara IPPV.

That was Ace Haven who was actually a dude. I didn’t believe it myself either :/

How could you leave out Brodus charging into the corner long after Tensai moved out of the way?

And what was the botch with Eddie Guerrero?

Tensei’s donut baker

Either that Eddie died and Chavo didn’t, or Eddie saying “chokeslam” way too loud. Not quite sure myself.

Where was that Colt Cabana footage from? Loved it.

I bought my ticket to Under the Hood quite a while ago, but a great job pitching it to those not in the know.

I know Colt put it on his twitter in longer form, called something like “slayer of Giants, Slayer of Chairs”. It’s just a fan filming it I’m pretty certain, but I’ve no idea what event it’s from.

It was a show here in Australia. He did a tour last month. I don’t remember exactly but I think it was in Perth

Oh really? Hadn’t caught it for a week or two. Always worth a listen, cheers for the heads up.

There was a subtle plug for a ppv at the beginning there, didn’t quite catch it though…Was it TLC?

The New Rockers: Punishment for Marty Jannetty? Or was Vince finally letting him be the sexy one? Jaysus, Marty Jannetty is to Al Snow what Shawn Michaels is to Marty Jannetty.

How did the dog shit thing make TV in a day when all the Fed’s programming was TAPED? The literal dog shit I mean, not the New Rockers.

Did someone say “You get so few chances to be WWE Champion” in a match where John Cena was the challenger?

I’d be much more psyched for the upcoming Sheamus/Big Show bout if it was an EXPLODING chair match.

Speaking of which, I never realized until now that Ben Kenobi was such a pioneer of gimmick matches. The River Kwai Death Match needs to make a comeback. Oh yeah, it needs to come back like a motherfucker…

Al Snow and dog shit somehow keep ending up in the same matches …

You’re so right. Believe it or not, Kennel In A Cell didn’t even cross my mind during this.

Maffew, we hear you get mentioned in a lot of clips, so I have a couple of questions: How many clips do you see that include Botchamania references that you DON’T include? Are there cases where people try too hard or maybe don’t try hard enough? I mean, we’ve seen a lot of stuff get included that clearly deserves mention, but I’m sure you see your fair share of botched arm drags or sell jobs that are unspectacular in every way where the commentator says “Oh man, this totally belongs on Botchamania! Derp!”. Does such obvious pandering get you nowhere, or does it get you EVERYwhere?

Only thing that outro was missing… was a disappointed Ric Flair.

I’m still waiting for “Disapproving Paul Heyman” to become a regular thing.

What’s the movie clip, at 8:00?
Adam Curry

You should cheer for ACH because he’s awesome.

Also, love the Bright Man music during the SS clips.

Being Maffew means never having to say you’re sorry.

What was that song that plays at 7:40?

Hey, just a heads up about the Table of Japan pic on the top-left. At the moment the Japanese reads “Japan of Table.” There are currently two が particles when there should really be just one を particle. At the moment it reads “Japan of Table cannot knock down.” The best way to say it would be:

日本のテーブルを倒せない (“None can topple/knock down the Table of Japan.”)

OR

日本のテーブルが倒れない (“The Table of Japan cannot be toppled/knocked down.”)

Thanks for Botchamania!
