The Casual Smart Mark: Casually Twittering About

I’m a lifelong wrestling fan who now watches less than two hours a week.   I’m the “casual smart mark” and welcome to Casually Twittering About (if you can come up with a better name, by all means let me know).

It’s a pretty simple concept, really…I scour Twitter (hey… you can find me HERE …you know you want to!) looking for anything interesting or bizarre from the world of wrestling.   Trust me when I say this: you think wrestlers are weird INSIDE of the ring???   Heh…just check out what I’ve found for you in the last couple of weeks!

First up is the “Eli Cottonwood Controversy”.   Well…it’s not so much a controversy as it was him blocking me.   Now, I really didn’t think I wrote anything particularly bad…but if he’s blocking wrestling fans for THIS, he’s got a looooong road ahead of him.

Ummm…this is how it started:

Of course, knowing how bad this lumbering oaf is inside of the ring I couldn’t help but respond:

And this, my friends, was the result:

This guy may be big, but he’s a big f*ckin’ baby.   Waah…a wrestling fan made fun of me.   Waah…I got kicked off the NXT show for sucking.   Waah…I suck.  Waah...ZAH has different Twitter accounts and will still follow my lame-ass tweets in order to make fun of me down the road.

Heh...

Another guy who sucks but at least isn’t afraid of a little criticism is Lucky Cannon.   This stooge was recently kicked off of NXT and I couldn’t have been happier about it.   But of course, he really thought he had a shot at going further in the competition:

To me, this really was just him setting himself up for an appropriate response:

And while he didn’t block me for the comment, I really had to bite my tongue after reading his response to being eliminated from NXT.

Lucky…you’re a whiny bitch.   Shut up…get better…come back.   The end.   Period.   Make sense?   Good.   Moving on…

TMI TWEET OF THE WEEK

Every once in awhile, a wrestler will provide more information in a tweet than anybody really has a right to know.   This, my friends, was my choice for the tweet the week that simply provided us with too much information:

Y’know, I don’t know about you but every once in awhile I like getting a good movie recommendation.   I’m a movie buff and really enjoy watching as many different movies as I can.   Thankfully, Colt Cabana recently gave me a great tip on a classic film:

And of course, I had to go search it out…

Guess who is running to Blockbuster this weekend?!?!?

AL SNOW LAME JOKE OF THE WEEK

This was a tough one as there were two horrible jokes to choose from.   In the end, I went with this:

One thing I thoroughly enjoy is tweets from the road of wrestlers.   It’s fun to hear about what it’s like for these guys and gals beyond the mat.   Chris Hero does this and this one particularly stood out for me:

GOLDUST IS DRUNK TWEETS OF THE WEEK

I swear to god that Goldust is drunk 24-7.   And y’know what?   It only takes a few tweets to get that feeling about the guy.   He responds to tweets without an @reply, so nobody knows who he is talking to.   In addition, he just posts weird stuff like this:

See what I mean?

Another one of the things I really enjoy about Twitter is seeing what kinds of pics that wrestlers will throw up for the world to see.   Some of them can be lame, some of them can be narcissistic, some of them can be bizarre, and some of them can be unbelievably cool.

Here are examples of all four:

LAME

NARCISSISTIC

BIZARRE

UNBELIEVABLY COOL

I love how Twitter can sometimes be used for booking requests…

I love how Twitter can sometimes be used for showing genuine happiness for the good fortune of others…

Okay…maybe not GENUINE happiness…

You would think being married to Beulah would be enough for Tommy Dreamer.   Apparently, he’s just flirty by nature:

ODB IS DRUNK TWEETS OF THE WEEK

I swear I can envision this woman speaking EXACTLY the way she tweets.   It’s crazy, really:

Anyway, that’s what I got for now, kids.   Follow me on Twitter and say ‘hi’!!   Or better yet, email me at ZAH.at.the.Insanity@gmail.com and give me your thoughts.

Until next time…here’s my WTF SHAKIN’ MY HEAD TWEET OF THE WEEK:
