Especially during one of the years in the 1990s when the WWF was inducting their notable road agents into the HOF. I'd have figured Garea, Goulet and the rest were in already.

It's always something that's a good song, but doesn't fit the fighter at all. It's akin to Ric Flair and Easy Lover. The narrative of Easy Lover gives the woman in question too much power and agency for Ric’s liking. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like a huge hipster character would openly hate newer musical trends and only agree to enter to something sung by Morissey. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niners Fan in CT Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 WWE has been on a great run of PPVs and character building. I've been enjoying it a lot. If they want me to lose interest they can start by debuting Punk at Survivor Series. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziggy Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 As much as I think it was completely unnecessary, I see the logic behind Rey Mysterio unmasking in WCW. We know deep down it was just to rub the Lucha guys specifically Konnan and Eddie the wrong way. I really don't understand why Bischoff decided to also unmask Psychosis and Juventud. I guess juventud got more of a push in WCW and he a face that you can argue could've been put over more to get him over with the female audience. Psychosis I thought had the most unique look before he was unmasked. He made out the worst after losing he masked and they turned him back heel a year later. If WCW marketed the Luchadores masks then I think Bischoff wouldn't have having been insistent in any of them unmasking and perhaps some of the lesser pushed guys probably would've had to be given more attention based on mask sales. Psychosis really never recovered, atleast in the American scene. Juventud continued to be booked outside of Mexico he just became his own worst enemy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newly formed, babyfaced Rock N Roll Express were tail magnets as opposed to early to mid 1990s when they look like two men who broke into a thrift store and decided to put on the shit they stole. Same with early era Midnight Rockers. 20 year old Shawn Michaels looked like he was 15-16 years old. Remember Flair used to talk about the RnR Express going after the teeny boppers while Ric was out chasing grown women. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 RNR were also created as a counterpoint/ B town alternative to the Fabs. The Fabs were for the older women (and based on some of their fan mail, gay men) and RNR were for the younger girls. (Insert Memphis comments here). now. Once they move to Louisiana and then the Carolinas, it’s all the women and girls. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AxB Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 If Marty Jannetty in thr WWE HoF? If they have a thought to put him in, they're probably waiting for him to die first. They do not want to give that type of guy a live microphone and an audience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny and incredibly sad the same time that for the win a date with the Rock N Roll Express in Mid South contest, they had to clearly and emphatically state in order to win you have to be of legal age. Somewhere, Grizzly Smith and Sweetan were like, "yeah, we don't need no competition." Watching some of the Houston stuff that's available, yeah I doubt you're going to see folks in AEW or WWE or TNA now full on make out with non plant fans like Bobby Fulton. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobra Commander Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Currently working out a Declan squash where he has a hookup to the commentators and he’s yelling at them to say specific things as the match goes on. “The Revolutionary Force in Sports Entertainment” is a tag line waiting for some heel to use it.

The term for these types of teams used to be "blowjobs." I wish I could remember the particulars, but I remember a story where two groups of promoters were discussing one of their territories and one said, "your territory is decent, but where are the blowjobs?" The other promoter was embarrassed, thinking he meant that oral favors were supposed to have been arranged for the visit.
