hammerva Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 but part is how everyone looks scared as shit (deservedly so) except for Sabre Jr who is in the group doing a nonchalant "Sup" to him Okay 2nd best part. Anything involving Yano in that press conference was #1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beech27 Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 For all that I enjoyed Naito and Ibushi trying to end one another, this was probably my favorite spot of the night. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NikoBaltimore Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 That is some next level acting if Omega found a way to quell the temptation to even crack a smile. That or he doesn't care for Yano's antics, but I'm betting on the former. Either way Omega's fucking awesome and I hope he never leaves New Japan, dude's a treasure there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 So do we have transcripts of the presser? I'd love to know what Yano said to make Okada lose his shit that badly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beech27 Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 @Pete He apologized for not wearing makeup for the occasion, then encouraged fans to keep buying his DVD. Then: The people running the account just launched a website, which should be a fun resource for the G1. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NikoBaltimore Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 No matter how many I've seen that so far I can't figure out how he did it without screwing it up. I'd suggest seeing somebody do that now but I can see that going very badly if attempted at a show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of several! I was watching a WCWSN from the other day and did not remember Ice Train being around and getting a small push in 1993 so I checked his Wikipedia page and it's a real bizarre run. -July 1993, debuts in WCW winning a handicap match. Has a small run where he teams up with Ron Simmons and has a shot at the tag titles, only to lose when he falls for a Missy Hyatt-feinged injury. Has an undefeated streak going but loses to Simmons in January 94. -Wrestles in Catch Wrestling, the Austrian/German fed from 94 to 96 -1996 returns to WCW in what sounds like an awful match returned to WCW on the February 14, 1996 edition of Saturday Night in a match against Scott Norton. The match ended in a double countout when both men clotheslined each other, knocking themselves out in the process.[6] After the match, the two shook hands and Norton declared to announcer Gene Okerlund that he and Ice Train would become a formidable tag team because of their similar in-ring styles. -'Fire and Ice' lasts a few months before Norton and Train start feuding. Norton joins NWO, Train kicks around WCWSN and Worldwide, gets Teddy Long for a manager (The kiss of death for any mid-90s WCW wrestler). -Returns to Catch Wrestling in 1997/98 -Is presumably on the indies but nothing listed for 1999 or 2000. -Re-appears in WCW in 2000 as Ernest Miller's limo driver, re-named M.I. Smooth (Russo!) -Retires shortly after WWE buys out WCW. It's weird that his career involved just two places, and the way he'd get pushed, disappear, come back and get pushed, disappear.

Ryan Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 I remember him and Norton feuding and both doing the full nelson I believe. If I recall they had a PPV singles match that was bizarrely watchable. Edit: Huh, they had a submission match at War Games. That's likely the one I'm recalling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe Norton was using some kind of armbar and that's what he used to get Ice Train to submit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
