Ultimate Christian Wrestling!!!!

Christian wrestling goes for grip on souls

Turn the other cheek?

How about break the other arm?

In the world of Ultimate Christian Wrestling, the meek aren't exactly blessed.

Usually they're bashed, bounced and power-bombed.

Perhaps the most extreme among extreme evangelists, these good news bruisers are primed to put Satan in a sleeper hold.

A loose network of pro and semipro wrestlers, UCW is the brainchild of Rob Fields, an otherwise mild-mannered English teacher near Atlanta. Fields, who lives in the Atlanta suburb of Canton, has been body-slamming for God since last summer and claims more than 200 souls saved.

Nothing like using staged violence...

2. Has anyone seen the shows on cable

where they have a bunch of weight lifters and martial arts guy breaking boards and cinder blocks? Just wild. I don't think that would make anyone go to church or study the bible.

3. What????

No scantily clad divas? Well, I ain't goin' then.

I predict this will not go over well, unless...

They add some nasty bad-guy wrestlers like ...

An abortion doctor -- He could wear a surgical mask and have blood on his hands

Or a pornographer -- He could stir up the crowd by trying to entice women fans to come back to his place and pose.

Or a drug-dealing atheist who wants to keep God out of the schools and sell heroin to middle school kids.

Or -- worst of all -- Bill Clinton.

They would all, of course, be beaten with Bibles until they beg for forgiveness.

The fundamentalists would eat it up.

4. I Always Found Wrestling To Be A Bit Homoerotic

... but that's just me. Perhaps I'm just over-projecting a bit. But then again, perhaps not.

9. A bit homoerotic? Try flat out homoerotic.

Let's see...

You have big, muscly guys in skimpy outfits (usually just briefs) grappling each other in a ring. Professional wrestling is unabashedly homoerotic. :-)

10. Oh no, you're not projecting.

Wrasslin' is about the gayest thing that ever gayed a gay. It's gayer even than football. I haven't watched the WWF (I REFUSE to call it WWE) in years, since Chyna quit, but there was definitely some questionable stuff. Triple H's signature move basically looked like he was making someone give him a BJ. There was also a guy called...wait for it...Mr. Ass. He wore little skivvies with giant lips on them, and his theme song was "I'm an ass man".

Now that Clark and Lex broke up on Smallville, I'd have to say Smackdown is the gayest show on network tv. :)

5. New move: The Crucifix

It's like the figure four leg lock, but a bit more painful.

[DarkPhenyx]

6. the wrestler who uses it will be Pilot.

Think he'll be trying to sneak illegal items into the ring like a hammer?

[VelmaD]

13. Uh...I think you meant...

Pilate. :P

[DarkPhenyx]

14. (insert Southern joke here) n/t

[AngryAmish]

8. There already is a move called the Cruxifix

[madrchsod]

7. glad to see ol`e tully

is still alive-must be the power of the lord!!

[spinbaby]

11. Ummm...yeah

Well, I suppose it's better than Christian mimes.

[Chovexani]

12. Oh good lord (pardon the pun)

Kickin' ass for Jesus! You've got to be shitting me. This makes about as much sense as having a Hindu Hamburger Eating contest. Besides, something tells me the heels are way more interesting than the good guys.

Though I'd love to see them get confused when some kid shows up in an Austin 3:16 shirt. :evilgrin:
