Elsalvajeloco Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 I've seen bits and pieces of Chris Colt. However, I think a fair amount of that was doing the super bizarre Nazi thing in late era Continental. It's definitely one of those "you had to be there" type things. And to be fair, there are plenty of things that were considered fascinating in 90s and 2000s pro wrestling that would be super hard to explain now w/o any type of context. Plus, kayfabe is pretty much dead so you stopping having wrestlers who provided some sense or element of actual danger cause you're in on it. I think they probably were focusing more on the gay man in super hyper masculine pro wrestling aspect and how he spent his time as a wrestler making people uncomfortable who probably would've been uncomfortable with his out of the ring lifestyle. From that perspective, it kinda makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 I immediately thought of Big E when the "masculine men" thing was quoted on air. Right now I'm thinking about him saying it in that voice and laughing his ass off with everyone. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobra Commander Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 He sorta went beyond that to reference AIDS and gay men with AIDS looking up to muscular wrestlers who are the sort of invincible people that they aren’t due to their disease. There might be a bit of a “how did I make it through this” feeling with some people in that scene. Like how the director alluded to how many of his stars ended up dead. Having that many people you know ending up dead young almost certainly has an effect on someone. Maybe to the point where after so many people it just stops having the same effect.

Cobra Commander Posted Wednesday at 03:02 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 03:02 AM not sure what Chris Adams was expecting from being in WCW in 1998, like 7 years after his last big run. If he only knew that he could have gravy-trained off of Austin in 1998 (he was in WCW at the end of 97) Booray is an amazingly Southern nickname Chris Adams and Steve Austin had similar tastes in women I thought Missy was in this episode only to find out it was Jeannie DSOTR really expended their "glowing red eyes" budget on this one 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted Wednesday at 03:07 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 03:07 AM I had to look the other day to see when Toni died (2010) so she wouldn’t likely be in any new interviews they showed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greggulator Posted Wednesday at 03:21 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 03:21 AM The Chris Adams episode is DARK. An extensive interview with the dude who shot him (Boo Ray.) A ton of wild interviews with Lady Blossom (the former Mrs. Steve Austin) and Iceman King Parsons, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted Wednesday at 03:39 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 03:39 AM Am I remebering right, that Steve Austin adopted the daughter that Jeannie had with Chris Adams? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wikipedia says Austin adopted Jade (who was all over this episode) Jade was also married to the late Adam Windsor, which I didn’t know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted Wednesday at 06:51 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 06:51 AM I haven’t watched it yet, so I was wondering if she was in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted Wednesday at 12:58 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 12:58 PM While I understand why they didn't include it, it would have been cool if they also mentioned that Chris was pretending to be blind while Gino died and the infamous "two tragedies" comment from Bill Mercer Also if you need anymore proof about how much control the Von Erichs had over that state, you have all these World Class guys in a hotel room or rooms filled with hookers, illegal pills, and mounds of cocaine AND THE COPS WERE AT THE FRONT DOOR doing nothing Not sure why they made a big deal about how much control he had over the Austin feud in 1990. I mean no shit Austin had maybe 3 months of experience at the time and nobody was taking booking advice from Toni Adams and Jeannie Clark. It is pretty awkward that most of the horrible things that Jeannie said and did to Toni were at the complete direction of Chris. No wonder that marriage was rocky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobra Commander Posted Wednesday at 04:25 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 04:25 PM I have no idea who would have been booking USWA Texas that year but I suspect Chris’ control over the whole thing was mentioned for how it was sorta Kevin Sullivan-esque, except that Jeannie was never married to Chris in fact, I don’t think they mentioned Jeannie being married to Billy Jack, did they? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
