Lol
Yeah...no shit.
What nWo?
The guy's a glorified spot monkey at this point. I could tell he hurt something as soon as he landed. Thought it might have been his shoulder.
He won't be around long at the rate he's going.
I'm no Eric Bischoff fan, but to say he got "lucky" off the NWO is just a stupid comment. The guy sounds like a complete mark.
Now I need to look up that info

Yeah, the nWo idea was inspired by the NJPW/UWFi invasion storyline that happened in 95'/96'. Bischoff travel frequently to Japan in the early 90's to watch NJPW shows. In 96' at the Tokyo dome NJPW/UWFi run a super show where UWFi wrestlers defeated a lot of the NJPW wrestlers. There were 60,000 in attendance shell shocked by what happened. Bischoff decided that he wanted to recreate something like that in America hence the nWo was born. Essentially the nWo would invade WCW and the rest is history.
That's the first time I've heard this or I just forgot about it. That's neat.
In retrospect that was the best thing Bischoff ever came up with. WCW was floundering as a company before the nWo angle turned things around. Then Bischoff rested on his laurels and ran the nWo thing into the ground. He really had nothing else on that same level after that.
That's where they messed up, they completely ran it into the ground... They had to much going on with it and then Goldberg and Bret and then Wolfpack and warriors oWn just got ridiculous! I'm sure the elite will do a great job fixing it where the nWo failed...
Damn
It begins! Just sell the wwe
Should be an epic match considering everyone involved.
I expected Dakota Kai to be on the main roster soon after they called up Braun Strowman's big dumb bitch. That's crazy.
This one is the standout, the Brock Lesnar looking kid. 6'4 300lbs. They didn't have anything for Vince's prototype?
They just released Dexter Lumis
Man I miss watching Kenta Kobashi wrestle. Dude is one of the all- time greats. He had it all. The look, toughness, versatility, charisma, and n ring psychology and storytelling mastery. He pumped out classic matches as routine as someone brushing their teeth in the morning. Dude was an absolute beast with it. He was one of the dudes that got me into watching "All Japan Wrestling" back in the '90s.
