Elsalvajeloco Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 I mean someone was amazed Orndorff was doing sunset flips. I mean 6'4"-ish Terra Ryzing was doing leg lariats and other stuff on the gas Paul Levesque wasn't doing or eventually dropped. It just doesn't jive with what we're use to seeing. Now? Everyone is doing everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You also forgot Sting wrestled Glen Jacobs before he knew what the hell he was doing. I've seen him do that better. That one looks like some freaky kama sutra shit cause his ass hits him dead in his groin and also looks like he powerbombed himself. 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only imagine he and Darby Allin seeing who can die first.

Elsalvajeloco Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Mabel use to do the spin wheel kick, which use to looked very impressive especially if the enhancement talent took a killer bump. But after a while, he could barely get like an inch off the ground and it looks he just fell sideways really fast. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Just finished the M-Pro chapter of Blood and Thunder Vol. 2 and MAN Sasuke has been around a looooooong, looooooong time. And only one fake retirement that only lasted like a single show, to my recollection. It's incredible that the company is still running. The last match I saw of theirs was Hayato Jr. Fujita vs. Kenoh over a decade ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John E. Dynamite Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 There was an Ironman Match in DDT years and years ago where anything remotely illegal would count as a fall against you. Like, setting up a chokeslam was an instant DQ fall and such. If ANYBODY has a link to that one, I'm dying to watch it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was surely his baby ("...we make movies." - Vince in Beyond the Mat). I never could get Stone Cold out of my head when Austin acted. It just didn't click. He couldn't inhabit a different character to me. WWE Studios haven’t been a thing for over 5 years or so right? The last movie I remember them pushing was with Becky and Shawn Michaels still had hair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remembering when Big Show lost that tables match by accidentally stepping through one. Tag rope and closed fist are also good ones. Was it Dax that said that in the WWE rule book there’s actually a rule about a maximum number of pin breakups in tag matches (I want to say 2?)? Has that ever been called? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was first pin break up was a warning and the second a DQ, I don’t think it was ever enforced though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
