Cobra Commander Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 yeah, between there being a move called the "Tombstone Piledriver" for the Undertaker to use, and Paul Bearer being a mortician, things just fell in place for the Undertaker gimmick, didn't they? although the people on my bus back in 7th grade (1998/99) were pretty sure that the Undertaker also used the Death Valley Driver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Bugg Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Anyone remember what the dimensions were for the WCW rings? I always thought it was 18' x 18', smaller than WWE rings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bustronaut Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Yeah, WWE uses 20'x20' rings, WCW used 18'x18' (as does TNA) and ECW used whatever was available, sometimes down to 15'x15' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OSJ Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Frank Gotch used to enter to Naughty By Nature. OSJ was there. Moron. Everyone knows Gotch came out to "Bad to the Bone". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to come up with something anachronistic that truly made no sense. Either choice works. Maybe he used both. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ace Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Anyone remember what the dimensions were for the WCW rings? I always thought it was 18' x 18', smaller than WWE rings. Yep. I was with UPW when WWE was unloading the WCW rings on the developmental territories. OVW, HWA, and we got one each. However, Bassman still wanted only to use the WWE sized ring, so he passed the WCW ring on to WPW in Anaheim, in exchange for free rental of their 20x20 ring. That WCW ring ended up at the Anaheim Marketplace. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GuerrillaMonsoon Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Fairly certain there's at least one copy of a Great American Bash 85 tour fancam where Ric Flair comes out to a mashup of Fanfare For The Common Man, Easy Lover and Niggas In Paris. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bucky Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 OK, so this is kind of a random (and dumb) question, but someone posted this ridiculous gif of Duggan punching the shit out of Buzz Sawyer and Sawyer flies through the ropes and bumps to the floor like a maniac. Does anyone know what match this is or have a youtube link to it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone know what match this is or have a youtube link to it? I'm going to guess it's Duggan vs Sawyer from 11/11/85 which was my favorite match from the Mid South set. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, they made him a deadguy who felt no pain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
