I don't think he even wants Raw to exist post his death. I think Raw would be better off as one hour imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted December 11, 2018 Author Share Posted December 11, 2018 Matthew McConaughey claiming he was thrown out of a show in the 80s for throwing a bag of tomatoes at Skandor Akbar is not something I expected to hear today (That story is in the last like 20 seconds of the clip) 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Web Conn Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 So this idea popped in my head; I was thinking about when Giant joined the nWo along with Bischoff in November of 96 and the rumors that the new member was going to be either Davey or Bret. So with Dynamites passing I got to thinking. I know Dynamite was wrestling in Japan in 96. I don't know if he was in any condition to have a run or not as he ended up in a wheel car in 97. My question is would Dynamite Kid in the nWo have worked or would it have been a trainwreck? I mean I know it would have all imploding as there's no way Dynamite could co-excist woth Hogan Hall or Nash but would the initial reveal of Dynamite attacking Piper have gone over? Would the WCW crowd have remembered Dynamite in 96? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Edwin Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 MJF is the best. And I just discovered Olde Wrestling: Simon Gotch and Antonio Honda and the various factions he and Dick Togo were in would fit right in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paintedbynumbers Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Jock Samson is someone that you all should get familiar with. The guy is hilarious, cuts good heel or face promo's and can go in the ring. Plus he does planchas. The guy is a machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we ignore the wheelchair thing happening, would had great matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forget the nWo, but imagine Dynamite mixing it up with prime Benoit, prime Eddy, Malenko, Jericho, Mysterio, Ultimo Dragon, Regal, Finlay, Juvi, Psicosis, etc. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between the steroids, the schedule and how he worked, he was going to get badly hurt. Even Dynamite felt that from how he wrote about it in the book. Of noble things Dynamite did, his love for his mentor was touching. Even if he was going to maim Brutus Beefcake to avenge him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes, Dynamite Kid having a Curt Hennig-like recovery after a few years not wrestling would have resulted in a lot of gold. Even in just 1996 alone, DK could have had some fun matchups in ECW with folks like Scorpio, Sabu, and Mikey Whipwreck / NJPW Junior wars with Liger, Otani, Ultimo, and Sasuke / or in the WCW cruiserweight bully role that Malenko was in mixing it up with Rey and Eddie on Nitro and PPV and a near endless abundance of athletic undercarders in awesome 7-minute sprints on Worldwide and Pro that would surely be making up half the "WCW C-Show Memories" thread. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
