cawthon777 Posted October 3, 2002 Report Posted October 3, 2002 IIIII AM DA MOUNTIE!!!!!!!!!!! *pounds my chest* *shocks Bret Hart with cattle prod*
Guest wayzing Posted October 3, 2002 Report Posted October 3, 2002 I liked the Mountie too, especially when he started singing his own entrance theme. When the Quebecers sang the same song only inserting the word NOT (We're not the mounties) after they weren't allowed to call themselves Mounties they were so wonderfully obnoxious But my favorite has to be Ted DiBiase during his initial run as the Million Dollar Man. Cheating when the kids were about to win those 100$ bills, making that woman bark like a dog, offering to buy the WWF title and so on. Such a nice young man.
Guest Will Scarlet Posted October 3, 2002 Report Posted October 3, 2002 I miss the Mountie. I will never forget one vignette of his where some citizen was feeding the birds, and the Mountie was like, "Hey! You're littering!" then proceeded shock the hell out of him with his shock stick. At least, I think that is what happened. It has been awhile. Plus, his music ruled all.
Guest CED Ordonez Posted October 3, 2002 Report Posted October 3, 2002 "The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase, hands down. He played the role perfectly. It's a major battle between his, Big Bossman's and The Mountie's theme as my favorite old school theme, though.
Guest BAR Posted October 3, 2002 Report Posted October 3, 2002 Ted Dibiase, no doubt. I was just watching Survivor Series 1996, and was interested to see who the mystery partner was in one of the elimination matches. I heard that weird computerized voice thinking I'd seen the sudden return of the REPO MAN but it turned out to be the Superfly.
Guest Dmann2000 Posted October 3, 2002 Report Posted October 3, 2002 I always liked Mr. Perfect myself. What's more arrogent and cool then a guy saying he's absolutely perfect.
Guest WrestlingDeacon Posted October 3, 2002 Report Posted October 3, 2002 If we're talking old school wrestler ring wise, I'd go with Arn Anderson. Character wise I always dug the Honky Tonk Man. He could play a crowd like nobody else. I was always a mark for Barry Windham too.
Guest cynicalprofit Posted October 3, 2002 Report Posted October 3, 2002 THE ULTIMATE WARRIOR as Vince would scream. Cosimc characters rule.
Guest oldschoolwrestling Posted October 3, 2002 Report Posted October 3, 2002 Along with most you guys have said, I have to ad Ravishing Rick Rude into the mix. He was good at pissing people off with his "What I'd like to have right now" speeches.
Guest D'Lo White Posted October 3, 2002 Report Posted October 3, 2002 The Berzerker and Repo Man. You can't go wrong with a guy who carried a sword and a guy who stole bicycles.
Guest converge241 Posted October 3, 2002 Report Posted October 3, 2002 how can you beat Honky Tonk Man? I mean before the act got tired does my all time fave Ric Flair count? I mean technically sometimes in the past few years hes done bad impressions of the Flair characteristics that make me pine for NWA Saturday Night Main Events and all Demolition would be in there too. Least favorite was Steamboat as "the dragon" where they all pretended no one knew who he was or that he was there before. idiots.
Guest Youre Gonna Learn Posted October 3, 2002 Report Posted October 3, 2002 DiBiase and Perfect were the best heels, definetely. And 1991 Undertaker, as well. He was a great heel.
Guest Youth N Asia Posted October 3, 2002 Report Posted October 3, 2002 Whalen Mercy...best wasted gimmick EVER "Lives are gonna be, in Whalen Mercy's hands. You know what I mean?" You can't go wrong with a guy who carried a sword and a guy who stole bicycles. I downloaded that on my old computer when Wrestlecrap was going...sadly I no longer have it. Repo man was a pimp...even as a kid I cracked up at those. Older Undertaker was cool. Hot Rod was my favorite as a kid. Perfect was great.
EL DANDY~! Posted October 3, 2002 Report Posted October 3, 2002 I LOVED Rick Rude. "Now what I'd LIKE TO HAVE...RIGHT NOW...is for all you fat...lazy...ugly trailer-dwellers to stand up and look at the body that you all can't have...now HIT MY MUSIC!!!!" A MILLION BILLION STARS!!!! Mr. Perfect was SO great...and when it came to straight old school competitors, it's Arn Anderson who takes the cake. Most Underrated wrestler ever. It took us way too long after his prime to decide how great he was...
Guest MillenniumMan831 Posted October 3, 2002 Report Posted October 3, 2002 Mr. Perfect was THE MAN!!! His music, smirk, towel all rocked the house! I am what I say I am, and I say I'm perfect! Another great one was Waylon Mercy. Man, he was creepy. I still remember his Raw squash of Doink the Clown. Good times!
Guest Banky Posted October 3, 2002 Report Posted October 3, 2002 Ravishing Rick Rude Jake The Snake Roberts Razor Ramon Demolition The Stalker Faarooq Asad All-time favorite: Faarooq (When he debuted with the huge ass entourage, pre-Crush and Savio with PG-13 rapping for him)
Guest Dale Newstead Posted October 4, 2002 Report Posted October 4, 2002 I love Ricky Steamboat, great old school babyface and a guy who was all business (except in that last stint in the WWF where he blew fire).
Guest Slingshot Suplex Posted October 4, 2002 Report Posted October 4, 2002 Tully Blanchard because undersized,sneaky,boasting,cheating-their-ass-off heels rule
cawthon777 Posted October 4, 2002 Author Report Posted October 4, 2002 In addition to the Mountie: Rick Rude: "What I'd like to have right now is for all you fat, out of shape, inner city sweathogs to keep the noise down while I take my robe off and show all you ladies what a real sexy man is supposed to look like ... HIT THE MUSIC!" Mr. Perfect: "Nobody beats Mr. Perfect ... and I mean nobody!" Papa Shango: Anyone that can make jobber's feet catch on fire and make the Ultimate Warrior puke goo is #1 in my book. Heels rule!
Guest Y2BigJ Posted October 4, 2002 Report Posted October 4, 2002 What about Bad News Brown and the Harlem Sewer Rats.
Guest Ping Von Erich Posted October 4, 2002 Report Posted October 4, 2002 You guys covered all the greats . . . but I'd say my favorite is Randy Savage. Who can't love The Macho King? lol
Guest The Notorious CRD Posted October 5, 2002 Report Posted October 5, 2002 Jake Roberts during his "trust me" era. I still to this day enjoy his promos from that era. "Million Dollar Man" Ted Dibiase was one of the first heels I ever enjoyed watching back in my mark days. The Ultimate Warrior was the gimmick that got me interested in wrestling as a whole. Something about him made me curious to know more about all this "wrestling stuff" as I called it at the time.
Guest Smark Hammill Posted October 7, 2002 Report Posted October 7, 2002 I kind of liked Big Bully Busick myself. What a great look.
Guest Special K Posted October 7, 2002 Report Posted October 7, 2002 Rude I have ALWAYS loved, he's my #1. Anyone ever seen the angle when he destroyed Lawler's car in Memphis? That was wonderful. And who didn't get a kick whenever he went for the hip swivel, and then sold the back instead of completing it? Flair's a classic, one of the great narcissistic heels. 'It may not be the newest ride, but it's got the longest line!' Since Muta was in NWA in the early 90's, I'll count him. While there have been plenty of unnaturally evil characters, his mannerisms were awesome. I never personally got TOO into Roberts, but he was definitely a completely unique, creepy character.
