THE GOOD OLE WRASSLIN' THREAD

[TechnicalBarbarity]

He returned to WWF in 1996 though. Famously no-sold HHH's pedigree (fuck yeah).

yea brainfart right there. I actually have that on tape, Bret Hart and HBKs iron man match and rick rude chasing around triple h in the back from what i remember. And who can forget the famous Huckster and NachoMan skit.

and yea, WCW just used him to try and prop Hogan back up. Made a huge deal out of his return, and the guy got beat up by the nWo in some cage match(cant remember if it was Fall Brawl or Halloween Havoc) and that was that, lol.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

That promo he cut during his Nitro debut was so long and rambling Hogan claimed they had to cut to commercial because he just kept going on and on and on and on...

signature Warrior lmao. He cut the most ridiculous promos .... "Take my rocket ship to space etc" or something along those lines once

Oh yeah. Overlooked Wm that one. Plus it also featured this awesome match. Possibly the first ever "hardcore" match. Piper legit breaks his hand at 5.22

Haha I love that "load up the rocket fuel" promo. What a nutjob.

Anyone else watching at the time loved it when Sid showed up in ECW for a few months and totally ruled?

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

Sid was a beast!

 

[Slammed]

Mario Milano was a beast!
And a nice guy to boot.

 

[Oblivious Maximus]

Sid was a beast!

And he got over in pretty much every compay he worked for. Sid always gets criticized for having a limited move set but as far as big men go, he was pretty much the total package. Legitimately threatening looking and he sold the hell out of the psycho gimmick. Amazingly brutal looking chokeslams and powerbombs.

 

[RadicalThrasher]

Any of you guys ever watch the "celebrities through the years" videos? A ton of former wrestler ones. Was hooked on those for a while

yea he was definitely the total package when it came to big guys. I think i might have a tape of the cage match where he beat Kevin Nash for the Big Gold belt(the most prestigious belt in the history of pro wrestling) using the crippler crossface.

Scott Norton's powerbombs were probably my favorite though. He would drive those mofos through the mat

Since this thread was started I've been trying to find my old ECW VHS tapes so I could find the Jerry Lynn match where he's wearing an Immolation shirt fighting another dude wearing a Dying Fetus shirt (I think) and I'm going out of my fucking mind lmao.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

Was it Jerry Lynn? i remember Balls Mahoney wearing Immolation shirts. There were a bunch of other wrestlers that wore metal shirts too but i cant remember them right now.

 

[CiG]

Fuck they both wore Immolation shirts... damn it I wish I could find this tape. The match doesn't seem to be on Youtube.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

more Mahoney pics ...

Spoiler

Man im diggin' through my collection looking for my ECW cd but i cant find it

 

[Phylactery]

Balls Mahoney was the perpetrator of some of the stiffest and most brutal chair shots I've ever seen. Fucking disgusting.

Jerry Lynn in his prime was amazing and really underrated. Had some great matches in ECW with RVD.

 

[jimmy101]

The guitar shot that apparently fucked up Jake's neck & became the catalyst for Jake's prescription drug issues.

"The Racist" slides off the tongue so much better than "The Hammer"

Booker T could have legitimately beaten the shit out of most of the WCW roster at that time.

Loved that guy, one of my favourite wrestlers ever.
