Kamala's Random WCW Bullshit thread

[Valeyard]

Jerry Lynn should've just gone to the WWF and taken the bullet of being Mighty Mouse.

If that isn’t a guy who has sold @Laz weed then it is definitely one of his uncles (and is possibly both)

 

[Big Papa Paegan]

...I mean, I've played shows with a lot of guys that looked like that, so it's possible

 

[Valeyard]

Hugh Morrus was perfectly fine and fuck DeMott for ruining his adequate legacy.

I said I wasn’t going to listen to Jericho’s podcast after he had so many anti vaxxers and DJT on but now Idk if I can stand much longer on my moral high ground!

Did you have a stroke and forget u used this a few posts above, also utilizing the Brody brand to pop a rating?

 

[Valeyard]

VK Wallstreet was the worst.

 

[Cackling Co Pilot Kamala]

That dope "Love in an Elevator" knockoff was wasted on him.

 

[Valeyard]

I mean I don't like Rotunda much anyway but VK Wallstreet was such death on arrival. Added nothing and was even the most boring nWo guy.

 

[strummer]

Even though WCW played it off as a fairly big signing with a vignette on the first Nitro, Wallstreet almost immediately became a Saturday Night or other weekend shows fodder right away.

That Duggan program somehow lasted well into 96 iirc

 

[Cackling Co Pilot Kamala]

I think VK Wallstreet might have even technically been the first WWF guy to jump over during the MNW since I think that vignette might have aired before Luger walked out. If he wasn't the first, he was definitely a very very close 2nd.

IT WAS kind of a big signing at the time. IRS, as much as he sucked, was still like a borderline upper mid-card level guy when he left. I mean he had a GD program with the Undertaker that year, which the oldhead sitting in front of me at AEW on Wednesday brought up. I feel like IRS references are something you can't escape as a wrestling fan. Just like you can't cheat the Taxman!

Maannnnnn, the alternate reality where Vader doesn't get whopped by Paul Orndorff and sent to WWF with tail between his legs, is probably not that much less sad than how his WWF run turned out BUT...think of all of the hoss fights a babyface Vader could've had with all of the large lads WCW had in '96-'97.

Vader Vs Tenta, Vader Vs The Giant, Vader Vs Meng...VADER VS ROAD BLOCK!

(Vader Vs 911/Tombstone, @Laz !)

 

[Valeyard]

Vader/Tenta interaction in Wargames was all I wanted. Even just a sprint on Saturday Night where they go full hoss puro on each other for five minutes. Anything. I don't care if it ends with Hogan beating both at the same time with a cardboard tube.

Who knew Blake Beverly was an inspiration for Samoa Joe?

So glad cameras were around to document the making of WCW Slam Jam!

At least he locked up the Raisin Bran, would hate for someone to get hold of that.

Matches you didn’t think existed thread cross post.

 

[BUTT]

IIRC that match ended with Johnny pinning an interfering DDP. WCW!

 

[BruiserBrody]

According to the WON of the time, Fred "Toot Toot" Ottman turned down the WWF's offer in May of 1989 because Zeus was already in the Fed as a "monster heel". He then went to WCW/NWA to seek employment.

@King Kamala Holidays I need a article length post fantasy booking Big Steel Man taking over WCW.
- Makah Singh (Norman the Lunatic) was about to come in. Do I smell clumsy fat guy tag team comedy?
- PN News rap battles

Kevin Sullivan & Big Bubba (w/ Jimmy Hart) defeated Jack Boot & Chavo Guerrero Jr. when Bubba pinned Guerrero
Jeff Jarrett defeated John Tenta
WCW TV Champion Lord Steven Regal defeated Bobby Eaton
Chris Benoit (w/ Woman) defeated Chris Jericho

The Main Event - 11/9/96: WCW TV Champion Lord Steven Regal defeated the Cheetah Kid

The Main Event - 11/9/96: Chris Jericho defeated Bobby Eaton
--
What drew anyone to see this?
Poor Chavo can't win a dark match?
SMW stars as cannon fodder.
Poor Chavo eats the pin with his partner Buddy Lee Parker (Boot) right there?
Tenta as such an after thought after the Giant and Bubba feuds that he's jobbing to ol' Double J.
Regal/Eaton and Benoit/Jericho were both probably fun.
Cheetah Kid may or may not have been Prince Ieukea.

 

[Valeyard]

FoF torturing Ricky Morton feels so right, though.

 

[Cackling Co Pilot Kamala]

Was Cheetah Kid a masked Ted Petty doing double duty? I know that was his pre WCW gimmick.

Hmm. That is definitely NOT Ted Petty. In this rare instance, I think @BruiserBrody is right and it is Prince Iaukea under a mask.

Fake edit- Cagematch confirms this! GDY LUTZKE!

 

[Fall of Epic]

Oh yeah? Then who is this Cheetah Kid??
