John Kennedy Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 http://youtu.be/P4sugYd2r7E - check out the awesome back elbow into a neck breaker combo by the Gambler in this match with Eddie Guererro. Somebody needs to steal that as a regular spot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cool arrow Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Wrestlingdata has 12 Gambler wins in 81 matches. Unaired WCW wins over Chad Brock, Randy Starr, Hog Hoggins. Some wins from his stint in the USWA. A win over Mike Winner at Center Stage 1994. The Scott Studd Match we saw might be his only WCW televised win The same site also claims his last name is "Gamble" OWW says his name is Jeff Gann. Apparently he also had a stint in USWA and even held the tag titles there for a time. Well, who didn't? Also, Robbie (Hurricane) Walker and Hard Work Bobby Walker were different guys.

Ultimo Necro Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mR7JOqJfk_M So trawling the youtube channel mentione above I stumbled accross this. Pillman vs. Bagwell featuring Austin & Shane Douglas. 30 second match and then all hell breaks loose. Completely random, Bagwell seemed super over, all 4 brought the fire during the mayhem at the end. Great stuff! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister TV Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 It's a bummer The Gambler never got over enough for WCW to sell Gambler satin jackets and playing cards. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PetrolCB Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Knowing WCW, there's probably a unmarked storage facility somewhere in Georgia that contains several thousand million of said items. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death From Above Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 All part of the nixed angle where The Gambler starts stalking Kevin Nash because "Vinnie Vegas stole the life I was supposed to have". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Comedian Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 all this favorite jobber talk had me wondering if my favorite jobber of my WWF-watching youth had ever worked WCW... ...and there's Dale "Dusty" Wolfe right there I think he gets more offense in in this match than he did in the entirety of his WWF prelim career Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BEN! Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Chick Donovan still wrestles now. And I like The Gambler but he's no Bob Cook. Great camera work as usual from TBS' top production crew as they completely miss Cook's attempt to mock Sting by jumping over the top rope at the beginning of the match.

RIPPA Posted December 24, 2013 Author Share Posted December 24, 2013 The lack of uploaded Road Block to the interwebs is distressing. So in lieu of that - here is Mark Starr vs. Regal EDIT - God I just noticed that the uploader appeared to type with his feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 I looked it up and the Benoit/Eddy match was Benoit's debut on Nitro. It's on Youtube if you want to see the most vicious powerbomb ever. EVER. Foley is incredibly thin here, without the hair and outfit you wouldn't think it's the same person. Pillman with the worlds highest dropkick was great. He almost ends his career seven years early on the Cactus clothesline which leads to some good psychology from Foley in working the neck. I'll watch these later but post them sight-unseen because there's no way they aren't good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
