RIPPA Posted February 19, 2017 Author Share Posted February 19, 2017 I am not gonna get poking at this since it is the photo thread but I do know the one version of John Cena that would get over no matter what 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joseph2112 Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 I look at that Cena pic and sigh. The WWE could print their own money if they wanted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sydneybrown Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 That pic reminds me: is there any kind of photo or video evidence of any kind of Randy Savage under a mask as "Mr. Madness" during his 1991 retirement when he was the mystery opponent for Jake Roberts?

HumanChessgame Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 That makes me wonder, did Savage and Taker ever have a one on one match? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PetrolCB Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Quick Google search shows they had a few matches in the summer of '91. The only footage I found is this brief clip... Savage looks like he got about 50 feet on that axe handle. He could've eaten a sandwich box of Slim Jims on the way down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clintthecrippler Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 It still pisses me off that WWE included those snippets of the Taker vs Savage match in a random "Top 5" video on Youtube but it hasn't made a Hidden Gems release on the Network yet.

With Heenan and Fuji things are eventually going to go south. Slick is an interesting choice. Bigelow and Gang seem like a natural team. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Sweetser Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 20 hours ago, RIPPA said: I am not trying to specifically defend Sable per se - but you said "she was lucky to come along when she did" And my point is that circumstance is often a major factor in any profession Example - if Steph doesn't hear John Cena rap (as the story goes) he doesn't get over in the WWE. And when they eventually let him go (which was going to be sooner rather than later) where was he going to get over without that gimmick at that time TNA? ROH? New Japan? No. As much as I despised Sable (and I DESPISED Sable) she was insanely fucking over in 1998. Or at least her implants were. But for WWE and printing money, that was more than good enough, which is why they spent over a decade overinflating every woman that came through the door trying to recapture that. Fuck, even through the Diva Search they were outright asking the women if they would get implants as long as the company paid for it. I'm surprised they didn't just have a plastic surgeon on staff.

Curt McGirt Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 We need footage of the Texan, the Canadian, the Invader (Murdoch under a hood!), Hiroshima Joe, and especially now that he's gone the Student. Big E needs to steal the Sweet Ebony Diamond gimmick. You know you'd pay to see that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to a house show that was delayed forever because Warrior no showed his match against Taker so Savage came in as his replacement and won in like ten seconds.
