Wrestling Team Presents
The Aristocrats
(Quicktime 7 required.)
Wrestling Team recently submitted this short as their entry in the "Be an Aristocrat" contest, wherein amateur jokesters were encouraged to document their own version of The "Legendary" Aristocrats joke. As usual, Wrestling Team not only deconstructed the joke but also any chances they would have had of winning.

Thalia: The (Conservative) Muse of Comedy

Won't you let Thalia touch your heart? I did, and it was really great. I'm just saying. No, I don't mean to push you, but I think you might really enjoy it. Look, let's just drop it. Either you let her touch your heart or you don't, it doesn't matter to me. OK, that's unfair. No, you know what? You're being unreasonable! I don't need to listen to this, you know. God, you're unbelievable. Check, please!

An Appliance To Murder
(Quicktime required. Video courtesy of Luke J. Ferdinand. Thanks, Luke.)
In April of 2004, Wrestling Team produced the short film "An Appliance to Murder" for the Pittsburgh City Paper and Pittsburgh Filmmakers' Film Kitchen film festival. The festival rules called for appliance-themed films with a maximum length of four minutes. What Wrestling Team submitted was a five and a half minute epic about a disgraced rabbi doomed to suffer eternal life with the remorse of a sin he didn't commit, and a picture perfect mensch with a secret. The film was not accepted on the grounds that it breaks both rules set forth by the festival committee. Wrestling Team urges you to view the film now and decide for yourselves. They are confident that you will see that it is, in fact, less than four minutes long, and the plot deals quite explicitly with a toaster.
