ZAH The Casual Smart Mark: Casually Twittering About
By ZAH

I’m a lifelong wrestling fan who watches less than two hours a week now. I’m the “casual smart mark” and I’ve got a few things to say.
I recently joined the ranks of Twitter. Well…I should clarify:
ZAH has recently joined the ranks of Twitter (you can find me HERE). I decided that my itch for wrestling was starting to SLOWLY return, and I enjoy Twitter immensely, so why not combine the two?
If you’re not on Twitter…what the hell is wrong with you? I’m still a casual fan of wrestling and in a short couple of weeks I’ve been IMMENSELY entertained by the tweets of the wrestling universe. And to add to my entertainment has been my ability to re-tweet. Now maybe I’m just full of myself (I am, actually), but I think my re-tweets are sometimes better than the actual tweet.
Example?
Now I’m not the biggest Sonjay Dutt fan, but c’mon people…do you REALLY think you should be “getting a tatt” on your face??
But kids, that’s nothing.
Let’s take a look at NXT Season Two rookie Eli Cottonwood. I think it’s safe to say that Cottonwood absolutely blows. He can’t wrestle…he can’t promo…he can’t even stand outside the ring properly. He’s tall, though, and that gives him a chance.
The thing is, though, that his tweeting abilities probably surpass his in-ring skills. He actually has a pet-name for whatever fans he’s actually got. This simply begged for my re-tweet:
But next-up is Bryan Danielson’s attempt at being awesome on Twitter. Now I don’t know about you, but when it’s hot outside I’m probably going to look for a swimming pool to cool off in. To Bryan, this seemed to be quite the accomplishment:
Bryan…you’re awesome in many ways, but I think you may have to stick to those.
Speaking of awesome, The Miz has a Twitter account. I didn’t really see much worth re-tweeting of his, but after hearing him attempt to “rap” a couple of weeks ago before attacking R-Truth I just felt the need to let him know my thoughts on his mad rapping skillz:
Yeah. Exactly.
And sometimes the jokes just write themselves:
I wish, Lisa…I really do.
Every once in awhile, though, you may actually find gold-bar-worthy greatness. For example, have you ever tried fishing for bass in your backyard using a Fisher Price fishing rod?
No? Then you suck.
Yes? Well then…have you ever CAUGHT ANYTHING???
Tremendous.
And it’s good to see that being a WWE Superstar hasn’t gone to Punk’s head:
LOVE. IT.
And what would the internet be if it weren’t for near-naked women??
I’m no fan of Layla, but then I clicked on the link and daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn……
Who’s lookin’ after his peeps, y’all??
Finally…you can always depend on O.D.B. to say something pretty stupid. Or at least something that makes me laugh:
Well of COURSE she’s sweating her balls off. I always knew something was “off” with “her”.
