RIPPA Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 For a second - I thought I had picked Candido before but then I realized it was just because he showed up in the Barry Horowitz thread a bunch. http://youtu.be/0VVpNSAAJG0
J.T. Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 RIP to No Gimmicks Needed. Hey, it is a double dose of "Chris"tmas! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aYitJbGW79o Candido sends a shout out to fellow Triple Threat member, Bam Bam Bigelow, by hitting the Greetings From Asbury Park to set up the diving headbutt finisher.
The Z Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 One of the funniest matches you'll ever see: Holy shit, I was searching for this match in particular and found it immediately and it turns out it was uploaded today, what a coincidence. Thanks, Ian. 3
Web Conn Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 vs Lance Storm https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qLRoZ2qIx-A w/Tammy Sytch vs Shawn Stasiak & Mona https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2LSz1eUSaY vs CM Punk vs Tracy Smothers vs AJ Styles Candido's last match w/Lance Hoyt vs Sonny Siaki & Apolo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=se5rPoQTb2I
Pete Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 One of the funniest matches you'll ever see: Holy shit, I was searching for this match in particular and found it immediately and it turns out it was uploaded today, what a coincidence. Thanks, Ian. 14:00. Months and months after I watched this I would still get "Early in the Morning" stuck in my head. Solid comedy wrestling gold.
Web Conn Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 vs Sabu vs Jerry Lynn vs Dan Servern for the NWA World Heavyweight Championship vs Tom Prichard vs the Amzing Red 1
Hail Sabin Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 One of the funniest matches you'll ever see: Holy shit, I was searching for this match in particular and found it immediately and it turns out it was uploaded today, what a coincidence. Thanks, Ian. Some of my friends still talk about this match to this day and Madison Eagles seems to always have a fork on her person because of this match. You could also post Punk vs. Delirious 2 since it was a tribute to Candido and Punk channeled Chris the whole match. Some point later I'll find Foley's 1st book and post his song about Candido.
Jingus Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 Awesome, that IWAMS eight-man tag is exactly the match I was gonna talk about. One of the funniest comedy matches I've ever seen; and it's even moreso because it took place on one of the Strong Style Tournament shows, which is mostly four hours of gratuitous stiffness and head-drops and it really needed that comic relief. Everyone was on fire in that one, but Chris really stood out as being on another level when it comes to being a ring general who knew exactly how and where and when to do everything perfectly. 1
Curt McGirt Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 Oh man, that match. Thank you guys so much for posting it. As soon as I saw what Cesaro was wearing I knew it was gonna be good. If Candido is the MVP of the match, Eddie Kingston is second place; he's the best possible Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope on commentary if you get my drift. "Do I get paid for this?", "Swiss bearhug", "it's a nice ass", he takes the goofiness and just amps it up that extra notch.
Tim Evans Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 Candido and Osamu Nishimura vs RVD and Danny Davis in Memphis 1991. 1

"Do I get paid for this?", "Swiss bearhug", "it's a nice ass", he takes the goofiness and just amps it up that extra notch. I had to turn off the match 6 minutes in cause I wanted to hear the crowd but I couldn't stand the fucking announcers. The closeted gay guy screaming at the top of lungs "I DON'T WANT TO SEE THIS! EEEEKKKKK! " while watching Candido's fine naked ass doth protest too much.
Hail Sabin Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 From Foley's book: "Candido, Oh Candido, I'll beat you up, I'll make you Bleed-o. Like Rocky did Apollo Creed-o. O Candido I'll scare you stiff, oh yes indeed-o, You'll leave a skid inside your Speed-o Oh Candido."
Matt D Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 We hit these now and again and I know better than this but god dammit: why the fuck is Chris Candido dead? Stupid fucking world.
