Scott Hall started out in WCW as Scott "Gator" Hall and he was supposed to be some bayou Crocodile Dundee dude. They filmed vignettes which got a bad reaction and the gimmick was soon dropped. He was then repackaged as the Diamond Studd and given DDP as a manager. Hall was helpful in getting DDP a job as they were friends from when both were in the AWA. After awhile, they got Nash as bodyguard Vinnie Vegas. When Hall got picked up by the WWF he then helped Nash get a job when Vince was looking to get a bodyguard for Shawn Michaels. Hall basically didn't get over in WCW because they're fucking morons. Sid was getting a bit two big for britches. He would give interviews where he said he was the highest drawing WWF champ in history and single handedly carried people like Hogan and 'Taker to the best matches of their career. Also, I think '97 was when he just quit wrestling to play softball, but that might have been one of the times he left WCW. Sid is a huge freak when it comes to softball (and most of the rest of the time too) and was known to miss matches and personal appearances to play games.

Another part was that orderlies came down in white face makeup, supposedly "ghouls," with a stretcher about half way through to cart the loser off. After Cactus revived Abdullah, they go brawling up the ramp, kick the living shit out of all the orderlies and then continue brawling with each other. Funny shit.

nor for LILLIAN GARCIA wanting some of the people's streudel.

*locks Va'aiga in the Hammer Jammer and makes him watch Poochy episodes of Itchy and Scratchy*

but she did get knocked up by Dustin and their kid appeared on Excess with COACH asking her who favorite wrestler was and then acting all shocked when she said Golddust.

*Hits Va'aiga with a copy of fellow quirky drama Twin Peaks*
-
yup, and there is an EL HIJO DEL DIABLO too.
-
yeah, Foley talks about it in his book. Mascaras pretty much became famous as a masked luchadore who did movies in Mexico, but he was nowhere as big as EL SANTO.

Thugg secretly wants the Memphis Eel to fight every card. That's a move set he can understand. Just to fuck with people I always like to find the most fucking obscure name I can find for something and then when people don't know what it is, get on them for not knowing that a Rocker Dropper is a Famouser.

and she won the world title in her WWE debut, like HULK HOGAN did back in the day. (from my last post, Mr. Electricity Steve Regal is not the same wrestler as the guy we know as William Regal. Different dudes)

19. Tag teams always break up by having one member of a team turn on the other, usually due to selfish pride. No teams ever just fade out. 20. Inevitably, the face will be pegged to be the bigger star, but the heel member of the former team will actually go on to have the better career.

15. At least two black wrestlers in a federation will either be in a tag team or feuding with one another at any one time. 16. The wrestling styles of all foreign wrestlers will be termed as "unorthodox" by the announcers.

and the Road Warriors were beat for those belts by Jimmy Garvin and MR. ELECTRICTY STEVE REGAL.

I've said it before on this board, but John Wayne is a very unique case and he gets more flak than he deserves. If you actually set down and watch his best five films (The Searchers, Sands of Iwo Jima, The Quiet Man, Red River, The Shootist) you'll see that there are a lot of subtle nuiscances tossed into the standard Wayne charicterization. John Wayne is a legend, because he was designed to be that way. It's a brilliant character designed by actor Marion Morrison. The problem is that while Morrison really was a good actor, he was a lazy actor and without the proper director riding his ass, like John Ford or Howard Hawks, he reverts to playing the Wayne character. There is also the fact that Wayne liked doing Westerns and War movies, so that's what he made. You can't hate a guy for doing what he loves and defining those genres.

and no team has been in more scaffold matches than the ROAD WARRIORS.

well, the Bushwhackers are from New Zealand, but it's in Australia's ball park. Mabel was seconded by rapper and non-wrestler OSCAR.
-
you know who else was from down under? OUTBACK JACK!!!
-
who had KEVIN SULLIVAN as his second during the Oz gimmick.
-
it's pretty much the same thing as the Stratus Faction used by TRISH STRATUS.
-
Ok, then the only other female commentator/announcer I can think of that was hanging around wrestling circa '93 was Bonnie Blackstone who was the wife of the dude that owned Global.

Who was the first to use an entrance theme?
WrestlingDeacon replied to Masked Man of Mystery's topic in General Wrestling
We've discussed this many a time. The first modern use was JYD back in the very early eighties with Another One Bites the Dust. To go way back in the day, Gorgeous George would come out to pomp and circumstance for the rare television appearance just up the heat of his entrance more. -
Mike McGuirk's real name is probably Michelle. I think the blonde is actually Rhonda Shear of USA Up All Night Fame. I vaguely remember her working as an interviewer for the WWF as some sort of cross promotion thing. Check out her website at www.rhondashear.com and see what you think.

Ok, here's the deal. People aren't going to sit through real bad movies and real bad movies are going to have the most easy access for people to find and watch. What gets termed as bad movies are those with a certain kitsch factor or a train wreck type of quality. Also if you look at the big picture, anything produced by a top Hollywood studio like Batman and Robin or Gigli is going to at least look good and have top notch technical aspects to it. You have to be a complete masochist like myself or CoreyLazarus or a few others around here to really have the mentality to sit through a real bad movie. So yeah, most of the stuff listed in this thread wouldn't even make my top fifty of what I consider to be truly bad films. Now if you want to talk about films that just plain suck, or were disappointments or I just plain hate, that is a bit different. Although, again, I'm telling you all Rajin' Cajun.

who lost a match to the BIG BOSSMAN and spent a night in jail.
