Guest ConchairtoHead Report post Posted March 18, 2003 Im just curious what kinda tables have been used in WWF(E)/WCW/ECW/XPW? Have they all used chipboard tables or have any used the real (heavyweight) tables? Because at an Aussie Wrestling Supershow they werent using that chipboard crap but the different kind.. i cant explain but its made of layers and layers of wood. They weight a tonne aswell! (i know, i got half of one in my room that i took from the Supershow) So who used what kinda tables? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Eagan469 Report post Posted March 22, 2003 I remember when HHH faced Cactus Jack on RAW at MSG in 1997, they used a balsa wood table (according to the sheets at the time) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest TheGame2705 Report post Posted March 22, 2003 LOL yeah it would have been funnier if it was hard wood and it really hurt HHH and Cactus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest NoCalMike Report post Posted March 22, 2003 Remember when Sabu was on RAW and he wrestled 2 Cold Scorpio(Flash Funk) and that damn table wouldn't break, even after 2 attempts. There were all sorts of rumors that Vince used a stiff table on purpose. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest HellSpawn Report post Posted March 22, 2003 I think they are called "Cocktail Tables", made of fake wood or something, recently I used one, they are heavy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest ConchairtoHead Report post Posted March 22, 2003 the one i got from the Aussie Supershow wasnt pre cut.. but they dont need to be precut anyway. The center of the table is the weakest part, take a person off the top rope (someone who weighs upwards of 200 lbs) and drop em i the center and it will break with no problems.. unless Angle is trying to put you through it.. lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest snuffbox Report post Posted March 22, 2003 balsa wood table... I remember at Bash at the Beach 96, Nasty Boys vs. Public Enemy, there was a real bitch table that wouldnt break despite some hardass bumps on it. That might not have been gimmicked too well.

Guest mickberna Report post Posted March 22, 2003 The tables are just cheap particle board. They break like twigs and generally don't require any prep. Anyone who is using real wood tables is not only paying too much, but is endangering their workers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest T®ITEC Report post Posted March 22, 2003 (edited) What kind of table were they using when Grandmasta Sexay broke one with his damn foot? It was around Survivor Series 2000, I think. EDIT: Nevermind. Edited March 22, 2003 by superfluousT®ITEC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Sturgis Report post Posted March 22, 2003 I remember when HHH faced Cactus Jack on RAW at MSG in 1997, they used a balsa wood table (according to the sheets at the time) If it was Balsa Wood how were they able to stand on it for 10 seconds(give or take) to do the piledriver spot?

Guest Nevermortal Report post Posted March 22, 2003 Ever seen tables they use in Japan? Someone obviously hasn't clued them in to the fact that they need to use pre-cut tables. Those things are so fucking sturdy that they can withstand a goddamn nuclear bomb strike. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ConchairtoHead Report post Posted March 22, 2003 It depends on the kind of bump someone takes. My table was set up on the outside and a guy came off the top rope and tumbled through it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
