The Green Meanie

Other then the wrong IC belt being used, that's great.

Here's the thing I'm not quite understanding - the video was made in 1992, and there is a disclaimer at the end that states neither the WWF nor Titan Sports endorse the game even though some of their wrestlers appear in the advertisment, but there's no mention of WCW. In '92 Hogan and Koko were still in the WWF, but was Honky? I know Orndorff surely couldn't have been.

Hogan shilling for the unreleased MaxiVision 30-1 unlicensed NES multicart from 1992. In case you want to see the full sell, here's the informercial they produced as well, featuring Paul Orndorff, Koko B. Ware, and The Honky Tonk Man!

Just thinking about that video brings tears to the eyes. I never really watched him when he was in WCW, but my eyes were opened once he jumped ship. You could always tell he was something special, even during his dark days when his demons were taking over. I think the big thing about his death that hit all of us so hard was the fact that they had toted he had beaten his past and was on the up and up, and it finally just caught up to him. I was never fortunate enough to see him wrestle in person, but I do have a good story about meeting him. During his huge SD run, some friends and I ran into him at a local Mexican restruant in Houston. Those lowriders he would bring to the ring? He got to drive those around town. They didn't recognize him as a wrestler, and just as some dude that had a nice car. I remember he was eating a gigantic burrito. We had a good conversation about everything other then wrestling, but I knew he could tell that I was a wrestling fan, and seemed to appreciate me not drawing attention to him.

Lego and wrestling don't mix.

Oh yeah, that's true. It's just an amusing piece of wrestling memorabila.

That was the closest he came other then his KOTR push. It almost seems like he's the original Bad News Barrett when it comes to that.

All that, and sometimes I battle with the fact that he's never going to become a world heavyweight champion.

I'll always want one of these:

Today I learned all about the infamous Cattle Baron belt, one that was advertised in the back of old Apter mags in the 80's: Want to see what you got for that $89.95?

YES.

Fixed for you. Looks like Danny Doring.

It's independent.

Some interesting pre-orders showing up on Amazon.... (This one was mentioned earlier in the thread)

I think we'd be remiss if we didn't mention Sting in WWF/WWE. How close has he ever come to getting there?

Who is that quote from?

Not hearing him say Cena things, you say? Mind blown.

Maaaan, that sure is sureal hearing Cena's voice but not hearing him say Cena things.

If they wanted to, they could play up that whole Sheamus/Orton/Show team that fought The Shield and mention how Orton kept questioning Show's loyalty. That would be too easy, though.

Not sure if anyone caught it, but did Show say that he hadn't had a chance to be WWE Champion before? Did I hear that line correctly? If so, he must have forgotten about his two reigns.

Beat me to it with that comment. Also, I'll be forever happy if JBL keeps calling everyone perro gringos from now on.
