Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Report post Posted November 10, 2002 I know you're all on the edge of your seats to know who the masked man is... so what are your guesses? Mike Sanders has come up a few times. Steve Corino would fit the part as good as anyone. I'll through out my darkhorse and say AJ Styles since the gimmick started after both Lynn and Ki got title shots...and AJ didn't. Plus...he's pretty much done everything he can do in the X division and signed a longer term contract. Who is he? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest cabbageboy Report post Posted November 10, 2002 Likely just one of the Armstrong bros. I guess. Brad or Steve, take your pick. Corino is a cool idea though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest CoreyLazarus416 Report post Posted November 10, 2002 Yeah, because Steve Armstrong, AKA "no heat, not that good in the ring," and Brad Armstrong, AKA "no heat, great in the ring, but no heat," would be GREAT choices... </sarcasm> I never thought of Styles before...definitely could be him. Watch how Mr. Wrestling III moves, though, and then compare his movements to Styles, Sanders, and Corino. No matter how much of a disguise a man wears, their movements are distinct (especially witht hose three possibilities), so let's watch the tapes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brad Armstrong is also probably old looking now and never had the superstar look IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Report post Posted November 10, 2002 Whoever it was under the mask won't be who it turns out to be anyway. Just like the masked Bullet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest RedJed Report post Posted November 10, 2002 It's been Steve the entire time under the mask, but it won't be him. Isn't he the Armstrong who refs? He was under the bullet mask the entire time they did that angle too. I HOPE it's Corino, but I think it will probably be Sanders. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest dreamer420 Report post Posted November 10, 2002 I'm really hoping that it will turn out to be Mike Sanders because I really would love to see Sanders back in the ring. Could it be Steamboat? He always had problems with The Truth and then just disappeared. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest dreamer420 Report post Posted November 11, 2002 If it's Mike Sanders we should be able to tell because he's a cruiserweight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Edwin MacPhisto Report post Posted November 11, 2002 I really don't think the guy in the costume is whoever the wrestler is. Mystery Men are almost never played by the actual wrestler until it's time for the unmasking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest dreamer420 Report post Posted November 11, 2002 That is true. Does anyone else think that it could be Steamboat? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Celtic Jobber Report post Posted November 11, 2002 This might be a little off-topic, but shouldn't he be Mr. Wrestling IV? There was already a Mr. Wrestling III in Mid-South a few years ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest CoreyLazarus416 Report post Posted November 11, 2002 Actually, Celtic, that's what I was thinking when the gimmick first debuted. I remembered reading the name "Mr. Wrestling III" in some rankings in PWI back in '98 or so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Last Warrior Report post Posted November 11, 2002 I would like to see it be AJ Styles. I don't really want to see him with the world title scene every week but for some reason I just have a yearning to see him Vs Jeff Jarrett. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He was under the bullet mask the entire time they did that angle too. I HOPE it's Corino, but I think it will probably be Sanders. Steve was the Bullet, but Scott is the Armstrong who Refs. I would like to know who it is though. The first two were pretty good, the third... AYE!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
