muhammedboehm Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Random question after watching the WWE Network show on the NWO. Assuming Vince would have gone full in like Eric. At the time could an NWO group have worked in WWF at the time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the time could an NWO group have worked in WWF at the time? considering the purpose of the NWO in 2002 and the coincidental timing of when they lost the WWF name, they could have had the NWO literally kill the WWF in a way  Although they kinda screwed it up by having them show up like nothing unusual during their first appearance on PPV. But I guess they were too old to be booked like the Shield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuerrillaMonsoon Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Could have done it very easily. Â Vader shows up. Then Sid. Â Shawn/Ahmed/Warrior vs. Sid/Vader/mystery partner at the IYH PPV that they pretty much had this as the main anyway. Â Third man turns out to be Bret. Â Sure if you play with debuts a little bit longer, you can have any number of Foley, Ron Simmons, Pillman, Windham, Dustin Rhodes and Stunning Steve Austin as the next guys who debut as well.

BillThompson Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Watching 1993 WCW, and were there ever any plans to turn Vader face? As the year goes along the fans cheer Vader more and more, and by the time Battlebowl comes around it appears as if the fans have taken  such a liking to Vader beating the tar out of everyone that they cheer him ferociously all night? I know Vader was very effective as a monster heel, but he sure seems headed towards being a face by the end of 1993. Did Hogan arriving change all that, or were they just content to keep Vader as a heel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add in the fact Nash come in injured leaving Scott Hall as the guy to hold it together, the nWo (as that original three) was doomed from the beginning in WWE.

cool arrow Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Hogan, Sting, Savage, and Vader would've been such an awesome team. Â IIRC the heel team in that match was Meng, Kamala, Shark, and Zodiac? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevmack116 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 I was watching Best of Smackdown on WWE netowk and was wondering if Ken Kennedy had not gotten hurt would he have won the title after the Undertaker/Batista cage match Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newtalkingwall Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 There were like 2 or 3 occassions in which we barely avoided a Ken Kennedy championship reign. I was never much of an Edge fan, and was somewhat stunned by how hard he was pushed the last few years of his career, but during his entire main event run I just kept telling myself "this was supposed to be Kennedy," which made it slightly more bearable. Edit: but let's not discuss such disturbing subjects as Ken Kennedy. Has anybody heard if Tatanka's unbeaten streak was at any time the start of much larger plans? It seemed so weird that such a big deal was made of his streak, considering he never was pushed very hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bucky Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 From Wikipedia:  In the late 1970s, Fujiwara became embroiled in a feud with Allen Coage (a former Olympic judo bronze medal winner who had debuted as a pro wrestler in NJPW, and one of the first gaijins to be trained at the NJPW dojo) over the petty issue of who had the strongest head. Fujiwara would bang his head repeatedly against the ring's corner post's metal face to provoke Coage, and behind the scenes, Coage would advise him not to do so repeatedly, in fear of suffering permanent real-life damage.  This sounds hilarious and amazing. Is there any footage of Fujiwara vs. Bad News? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cool arrow Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 They had a televised single match in NJ in December '81. Also a six-man with Abdullah and SD Jones (!) on Allen's team and Kimura and Sakaguchi on Fujiwara's, in November '82, and a tag match with Murdoch and Kimura as their respective partners, in August '83.

I remember Akira Maeda & Yoshiaki Fujiwara vs. Bad News Allen & Steve Williams (7/25/86) on the NJPW set being decent fun but not living up to those names.

odessasteps Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 I would have put Fujiwara in the highest class of headbutts, even over Samoans and black wrestlers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petey Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 Did Arn Anderson know his match with Lex Luger from Slim Jims Halloween Havoc 96 was going to be his last one going into it? I'm under the belief that he was hurt going into the match but I don't know if he planned on that being his last match or if he was still planning on wrestling but wasn't able to recover from his injury and was forced to retire.
