I was gonna block the face on this one, but he's really old school, and I may be the only one old enough here to remember him, lol.
Anyway, try this one:
This was another great WWWF angle. Zbyszko was Bruno's protege, and had been for a long time. He felt like he was constantly in Bruno's shadow and felt that no one took him seriously on his own. So, he challenged Sammartino to a match. Great heel turn that would be talked about for years, decades ...
My thoughts on WCW was that it stunk. I hated it. When they broke ties with NWA it went downhill, for both of them. I loved the NWA on TBS with Flair as champion. They just lost something when they became WCW. A lot of you guys probably loved it, but to me, it was like losing the serious promotion ...
The Undertaker is getting old, literally. He was huffing and puffing his way through the match. It also looked like he and HHH didn't know what was supposed to happen next a lot.
I'd like to see Taker go 20-0, but after that he should call it quits. IMO.
Being old school, I have to go with Mil Mascaras, followed closely by The Masked Superstar. Mascaras won a title everywhere he wrestled, which wasn't necessarily a good thing for the promoters, lol. Mil didn't like to drop a title once he won it, and since the man could legit wrestle, sometimes it ...
They let Hogan go to the WWF. He could have been their(the AWA's) saviour had they used him the right way. Agreed about Verne not being willing to change with the times, and about him being stubborn. Plus, he pushed his son to the moon. Don't get me wrong, Greg Gagne was an accomplished wrestler ...
I have to go with Cactus Jack vs. Terry Funk in the finals of the King Of The Deathmatch tournament. Not only did they bleed buckets, Funk suffered second degree burns from the exploding turnbuckles.
Jack Veneno it is!! If you've read Ric Flair's book, there's a great story about this. They were wrestling in the Dominican Republic I think, and the crowd was brutal. Flair had Veneno pin him just to get out of the place alive, lol.
This is a fun game that get's pretty tough at times. Think you know your wrestlers? Maybe not as well as you think. I'll start the first one, and the person who gets it correct will then post their wrestler pic. Please wait until the poster confirms your guess before posting your pic. Anyway, who is ...
I've been in some seriously heated debates about this before, so I may as well jump into this one too. Here's my take: Bret screwed Bret. Bret was the WWF champion, and was going to WCW. Vince had already had Alundra Blaze(Debra Miceli) jump ship to WCW while she was still the WWF Women's Champion ...
