Guest HartFan86 Posted July 19, 2002 Report Posted July 19, 2002 Why did HHH wear this medal chain thingy on his chest for about a week, and then just stopped? I thought it was pretty bad ass, and then Scott Steiner ripped it off in WCW. Anyone know why?
Guest TheSmarkzone Posted July 19, 2002 Report Posted July 19, 2002 Don't you mean "metal" chain? Unless he was wearing a vest consisting of Kurt Angle's medals melted down into chain links. And IMO, that thing looked downright ridiculous.
Guest Ravenbomb Posted July 19, 2002 Report Posted July 19, 2002 you mean the chain-mail midevil type thing?
Guest TheSmarkzone Posted July 19, 2002 Report Posted July 19, 2002 Yep, or as Austin called it, "that ridiculous-lookin' thing made outta beer tabs".
Guest dreamer420 Posted July 19, 2002 Report Posted July 19, 2002 i remember that steiner started ripping it off shortly after and i think that is probably why he stopped.
Guest pinnacleofallthingsmanly Posted July 19, 2002 Report Posted July 19, 2002 Triple H looked funny as hell in that costume and I'm glad he stopped wearing it. On a side note, does anyone else remember Austin getting caught in the ropes at that Summerslam? Austin had stood on the bottom or second rope to talk shit to Shane McMahon, and Jesse Ventura decided to try it too. Whne Ventura got on, Austin was flipped upside down and was left dangling until Triple H broke kayfabe and helped him get free.
Guest The Mountie Posted July 19, 2002 Report Posted July 19, 2002 That was one of the funniest things I've ever seen and I still laugh about it now. Poor ol' Steve. I actually thought that PPV was really enjoyable. Sure, 98 and 2000 were better, but it was a good show.
Guest Just call me Dan Posted July 19, 2002 Report Posted July 19, 2002 Steiner wore his on his head, and HHH was just a throw over shirt kind of like Scott Hall used to do with his nWo shirts. I guess you could say Steiner ripped it off of him, but it didn't work for Hunter and it DID work for Steiner. Steiner's was much more well put together, anyways. If you want to get technical, Perry Saturn wore one in WCW way before both of them.
Guest dreamer420 Posted July 19, 2002 Report Posted July 19, 2002 it looks dumb on whoever wears it too.
Guest Just call me Dan Posted July 19, 2002 Report Posted July 19, 2002 You really think so? I thought it looked ridiculous on HHH, but Saturn was so whacked out it didn't matter and Steiner's wasn't too off the wall.
Guest pinnacleofallthingsmanly Posted July 19, 2002 Report Posted July 19, 2002 Maybe it looked good on paper.
Guest Ravenbomb Posted July 20, 2002 Report Posted July 20, 2002 you mean like as a paperweight or something?
Guest dreamer420 Posted July 20, 2002 Report Posted July 20, 2002 i thought it made steiner look like a jackass. it just didn't look good when he was wearing it during promo's in street clothes.
Guest eiker_ir Posted July 21, 2002 Report Posted July 21, 2002 i thought that chain thing looked WICKED! ....not really
Guest pinnacleofallthingsmanly Posted July 21, 2002 Report Posted July 21, 2002 i thought it made steiner look like a jackass. it just didn't look good when he was wearing it during promo's in street clothes. I totally agree iwth you, but who was going to tell Steiner that? Steiner could have gone out dressed like a prima ballerina and I don't think anyone would have told him that he looked like a jackass.
Guest LesnarLunatic Posted July 21, 2002 Report Posted July 21, 2002 didn't HHH stop wearing the chainmail because it hurt his nipples or something like that?
Guest Redhawk Posted July 22, 2002 Report Posted July 22, 2002 didn't HHH stop wearing the chainmail because it hurt his nipples or something like that? You stole my answer! I was thinking that mybe his nipples got pinched a few times and he was like, "Fuck it." Or maybe it was too cold and gave him goosebumps and made him giggle and act less manly. Steiner's metal Jheri Curl cap ruled, though.
Guest jimmy no nose Posted July 22, 2002 Report Posted July 22, 2002 Wasn't it Sebastian Bach of Skid Row who started the whole chain mail shirt thing? I don't think it worked well for Triple H.
