Top 5 reasons the WWF doesn't really have 14 million potential voters in its camp:

5. 1 million followed Tazz over from ECW; U.S. law prohibits convicted felons from voting.
4. 2 million are nationalized Canadians; with the exchange rate, their votes are only worth 1.5 million in American elections.
3. 3 million are 14-year-olds who lied about their age on the Nielsen sign-up sheet, thinking it might get them some free beer.
2. 2 million are rabid Rock fans, thus unable to fill out a voting application, ask for help in filling out a voting application, or spell "voting application" in 5 tries or less.
1. 5 million only logged on to WWFvote.com in hopes of seeing the Kat display her "Oval Offices."



Top 10 :

Snappy Closer--Top 5 signs you are an internet wrestling "lifer":


5. Remember old show reports where individual who was "playing Ricky Morton" was actually Ricky Morton.
4. Never took any "Web dirt sheet" reports seriously unless "The Man They Call Al" said so.
3. Anxiously anticipating "ChatThis 2.6."
2. Used to say things like "how does he expect me to read that whole Lariat if it's broken up into four separate pages?"
1. Still think there's an outside shot you'll be included in Hyatte's "Rat Pack."
