Otherwise know as pet-peeves.

For example, pet-pevee of mine has always been when one wrestling company talks about another. I am looking at you TNA and ROH.

What I hate is when people Irish Whip somebody to the ropes, and they bend over as soon as they irish whip them and they get kicked in the chest. Thats always annoyed me to watch that.

Agreed, that annoys me as it's common sense, like someone would really run into a backbody drop when it's set up before actually being done...not even that can be made to look good or "sold"

When things are extremely over-exaggerated.ShowStopper102

Agreed! Vince ducks when the "Million Dollar Mania" sign falls.

Vince: "Paul, I can't feel my legs..."

What the? It didn't even touch his legs, I'd understand a head injury but a LEG injury, can you say over-exaggerated? I can!

For example, pet-pevee of mine has always been when one wrestling company talks about another. I am looking at you TNA and ROH.

Exactly, WWE never mentions TNA or ROH while those companies scream their name every chance they can. They must realize that they will never get the WWE's attention. Ignoring them is easy...

The only time I actually thought Vince did a pretty good job was Vince McMahon Tragedy: Episode I. Where he was "killed" in a limo explosion.

I'll tell you what grinds my gears:

1) The word "Superstars". They even capitalize the word in the middle of a sentence. WTF?!

2) The E talking about how great everything about them is, was, or will be.

3) Everybody wearing short tights and no shirt. COVER UP!!!!!!!!!! The divas are OK, though :D.

I remembered a few:

Mark Henry being introduced as "The World's Strongest Man" when I highly doubt that's true.

Divas being called "The Sexiest Women On Television" when that, as well, isn't necessarily true.

And I don't know if it's true, but I've heard talk about Vince and his expectations with the Divas. This is one of the most annoying things I've seen in this buisness. For example, Kelly Kelly. "Blonde, skinny, attractive. What else? Can she wrestle? Who cares, she looks good."

I agree with all of those, most of the divas are thin, pretty, terrible wrestlers. That's why I'm only fans of Mickie James, Beth Phoeniz, Natalya Neidhart and Melina(never liked her until she improved her in ring skills, now she is one of my top faves and I can't wait till she comes back!)

Exactly. I still like Kelly Kelly though. I honestly think she has improved a tremendous bit since being on ECW. She was probably one of my least favorite divas when she was on that brand. But now she's one of my favorite's. I think Kelly's being trained by, Mickie James actually. Or so I hear.

Nah, I don't believe that, when you improve in the ring, it's because you get used to it, not because someone trains you, that's how people get better.

As for Kelly Kelly, I never liked her since she was part of the extreme expose. My favorites were Layla and Brooke.

It was the Arnolds Classic but that's not the "World's Strongest Man" competition. Henry never took part in the WSM competition so basically it's still false.

These are the 5 things I cant stand about Wrestling

1.Hornswoggle,Delaney and all the other useless gimmicks in the WWE.

2.The Stupid winning streak thing like Kozlov has and Umaga had,STOP WITH THAT CRAP WWE.

3.Legends that become jobbers like Dreamer.

4.I cant stand that I dont see Shane,Vince or Stephanie on RAW anymore.

5.I cant stand People in the WWE who get title shot without proving themselves or deserving the title.

All of you present great incidents, and I agree with them all, another thing that annoys me is when things arent believable fued wise,

Like for instance, Big show dominated Undertaker back in 1998 and chokeslammed him through the ring then last week Big Show was afraid of the Undertaker.

Back in 1998 triple H feared the Undertaker, then in 2002 after taker caused Hunter to lose the title to Hogan, Taker feared the game when he came after him the following monday on RAW

And theres many more, that kills me.

Not to mention, Don West, for the most part, just does not when to STFU.

In regards to Michael Cole, if I never hear another Colegasim over Taker's entrance, it will be all too long. That, and in my humble opinion, apart from the slow start, and the dead crowd, give or take, having to hear Cole-Coach on commenatory is virtually the only negative about Taker-Edge at WM XXIV.

Another thing I hate, is that when WWE lies about a Superstars Height, Weight, and Birth Location. Like Undertaker, when he was in the Big Evil gimmick, they said he was 7 foot, from Texas. Now that hes the Deadman, they say hes 6'10" from California... Same with JBL, when he was Bradshaw in the APA they said hes from Texas, now JBL is from New York. John Cena, his rapper gimmick they said hes from L.A., not they say hes from Massachusettes. Things like this always annoyed me.

Exactly, he never stays quiet! Also, when he messes up his lines, he butchers commentary even more

Oh, don't get me started with Cole. He is like a most biased toward Batista when it comes to commentary. He praises Batista like he is God and he makes liking a face wrestler a bad thing. Foley made him better on SD, until he left, now he is with Lawler who needs to be with JR.

But about Cole I do think he's annoying especially when he says "The numbers game...and NOT THIS WAY NOT THIS WAY!!!" Hes just a cop out"
