[Hordak Rules]

My opinion the funniest spot of the year was the Match Game with Santino, Hacksaw and Ron Simmons. Hacksaw's line to Santino about "Stand up when you talk to me!" was classic.

 

I'd agree that Big Daddy V's makeover was indeed the best.

*I loved the line where Santino asked Duggan "Are you mildly ##$%$#ed?" from that same segment for the funniest moment of the year. The magazine did a good job of covering the year with their awards.

 

*I am almost afraid of how unintentionally comically that TLC show is going to be. Jeez, what happened to TLC? Is that the same channel that used to be The Learning Channel or the channel that used to have Trading Spaces? Wow.

ever since TLC let go that short-haired hotness that used to host Trading Spaces, they whole network went downhill.

Oh man she was hot. What was her name?

[khamla]

I dont know about Batista being the WWE Superstar of the year. I mean it was all about John Cena and his run, he was all over the place.

 

And speaking of Wrestling reality shows. I wished the WWE did there own reality show. Behind the scenes stuff, politics, life with the wrestlers on the road. That would be really sweet!

[BeautifulDisaster]

Paige Davis was her name and she is back as host of the show sometime in mid-January. God, she smelled like smoke because she was hot as hell! I loved me some Paige Davis, lol.

 

Though, that show won't be the same because it's lost all the charm it used to have.

 

What's really bad is that I am such a dork for that show and a grown (and heterosexual) man, LOL.

[BigBot84]

I was surprised at how many people watched that show here.
