I don't get that it's racist, but G-Raver is a special breed of stupid to keep going after someone who already sued him for this shit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 (edited) I know it's a parody of a specific sad clown face, but with his history the first thing it looked like to me was a clown in blackface. I'm probably reading too much into it and I am just some white guy. Still stupid of him to antagonize him and G-Raver is notoriously a piece of shit. Edit: Yeah, Weary Willie, the hobo clown. Just looks off these days. Edited December 29, 2019 by Ryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Natural Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 For a while now, I've wanted WWE to do a NXT shirt with just the NXT logo. Thanks to NXT's Survivor Series 2019 involvement, one was made. I asked for one for Christmas and picked a shirt of The Revival as well: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like to imagine it’s a homage to the Ali match with him laying on the ground trying to kick Ali’s legs the whole time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AxB Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 I always assumed that was a typo and they meant Basketball. Then I saw pictures of Baba in his baseball uniform, and it still didn't seem right. There's running in Baseball. I should probably try to watch some 60s or early 70s Baba matches at some point, when he could actually move. Seeing him in the 90s, when his offense was largely based on having people run into him, you start to think maybe he was always like that. Born old, as it were. Same thing with Stan Hansen. You kind of think of him as being middle aged and grumpy forever, because he started working veteran style in his 20s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baba was a pitcher, so it's not like he was running down fly balls in the outfield. Still, from what I've read, he wasn't a bad player by any means. If you can find some footage of him in the 1960s or early 1970s, he could really go for such a tall man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Baba was in fairly good shape for having gigantism and the era he lived in. It's not like he was doing heavy bodybuilding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 (edited) There's a ton of old Baba on Ditch's old AJPW page and it stands the test of time. I seem to remember a match with Harley being really choice. EDIT: Most of those matches can be found here https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=giant+baba+1970s That was rather easy. There is a LOT of interesting stuff here, with Baba fighting everyone from Bobo Brazil to Gene Kiniski to a 200 lb. Abby.
