Whats the start of video 3? I see it a lot in the JR announces things videos but I don't know the source. The "CAN YOU FEEL IT? CAN YOU SENSE IT?"

Hilarious.

I always feel so sad listening to the old JR commentaries though. It was just so incredible the atmosphere created at that time compared to now.

The JR commentary meme shows no signs of petering out. I think the soundboards could do with freshening up though. Hopefully some uber-geek fan spends hours trawling through old footage on the network for some new material.

This might deserve it's own thread but:

Quote:
WWE Hall of Famer Jake "The Snake" Roberts is currently unconscious in a Las Vegas hospital.

Roberts took a flight yesterday to attend a show in Las Vegas. Roberts passed out on the plane, and has been unconscious since. An ambulance was taken to the plane, and Roberts was transported to a nearby hospital.

I am told that Roberts has double pneumonia, and doctors have said that his lungs are filled with fluid and there is a mass on his brain. I hope to have an update soon.
Wish him nothing but the best.

God. Let's hope it doesn't turn out to ultimately be worth its own thread.

Update: 6:10 pm ET I can confirm that Roberts is out of his coma, which lasted for nearly 24 hours. Diamond Dallas Page also noted on his Twitter that he spoke to Roberts' girlfriend, and that Roberts is fading in and out.
Not out of the woods yet by any means, but a positive update.

Double pneumonia is ****ing intense and not something a guy his age in his condition normally pulls through. Here's hoping he gets past it.

What's double pneumonia? I've had pneumonia before and it wasn't pretty. I can't even imagine what Jake is going through. Best wishes to him.

Both lungs.

For someone with his history of health issues and what we'd assume would be a fair amount of deterioration, double pneumonia is very serious.

Good news for Jake (and the wrestling community):

He is recovering. His condition is getting better.
He will be OK in a couple of weeks.

That's awesome. Really didn't think a body that has been abused like his would pull through that. DDP yoga strikes again

Great news about Jake.

Khali's legs though

I guess it's a result of his illness but it also explains why he walks like he's in constant pain.

Yeah it really is. Like...that doesn't even look like it should physically work to get him from point A to point B.

RIP Sean O'Haire. Always feel like they could have done more with this character.

Yeah I always thought he had some potential. I googled him every now and then and watched some of his mma fights. He was a decent wrestler for his size. Sad to see another wrestler die young.

So weird, I fell town a rabbit hole like two weeks ago and googled him and would swear I was surprised to discover he was dead. Sad. Never saw him work much (I first got into wrestling exactly when those promos were airing) but his look was awesome. One of my favorite No Mercy CAWS was basically based on him.

Apparently cause of death was suicide by hanging. Sad.

Geez, that's terrible. Those vignettes were awesome, disappointing that they were the high point of his time there.

Wrestling is harsh. But then, I'm not telling you anything you don't already know.
