Guest Galactic Gigolo Report post Posted May 3, 2003 With the addition of Liz, the Summerslam 1988 death toll now has Davey Boy Smith, JYD, Rude, Dino Bravo, Frankie, Andre, and Liz. And to those who are the walking dead: Bret Hart - the stroke Jake Roberts - He's Jake Roberts. Warlord - Can barely walk now Dynamite Kid - near cripple. Who will be next? Note: This isn't meant as disrespect, I just find it kind of weird that most of the guys from 80's WWE that are now dead competed on this card, minus the '89 Summerslam PPV debut of Hennig.

Guest Memphis Report post Posted May 3, 2003 I honestly couldn't take it if the Hitman died. He's been my hero since i was seven years old, it'd just be too much. However, he's doing okay now and I hardly consider him 'walking dead'. A stroke won't keep him down. M Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Galactic Gigolo Report post Posted May 3, 2003 Oops. I meant Warlord. Incase you don't know this, Warlord got nailed by a Pizza Hut delivery car in '94 or so and is either in a wheelchair or very injured because of it. The scary part? Warlord actually trains wrestlers. Seriously. Warlord. Yes, Warlord. Dale Torborg was one of his students. Case-in-point. I'll go edit that now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Choken One Report post Posted May 3, 2003 Yikes. Who else was on the card? Couldn't we say this about ALOT of Late 80's Cards? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Galactic Gigolo Report post Posted May 3, 2003 You probably could, but this was just something that came to my mind again since Liz died. I remember having SS 88 as a kid on video (like 5, 6 years ago), and always found it odd how so many of the guys were dead. The British Bulldogs vs. Jacques & Raymond Rougeau Bad News Brown vs. Ken Patera Rick Rude vs. Junkyard Dog The Powers of Pain vs. Nikolia Volkoff & Boris Zuhkov "Brother Love Show" with Jim Duggan Ultimate Warrior vs. Honkytonk Man (Warrior wins WWF I-C Title) Dino Bravo vs. Don Muraco Demolition Axe & Smash vs. The Hart Foundation Big Bossman vs. Koko B. Ware Jake Roberts vs. Hercules Hulk Hogan & Randy Savage vs. Andre the Giant & Ted DiBiase (special referee Jesse Ventura) If God takes the Bossman, who wants to hijack his casket for giggles?

Guest Choken One Report post Posted May 3, 2003 From That Card... KoKo Duggan and Axe are my picks for the next dead... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Galactic Gigolo Report post Posted May 3, 2003 Survivor Series 88 - Bulldog, Owen Hart (Blazer), (next four all on one team) Andre, Rude, Bravo, and Frankie. - Well, we've got a tie, though Liz was probably involved on this card in some form so Survivor Series 88 seems to be the winner. Harley Race is apparently next, as he was the final partner of the aforementioned four. Survivor Series 89 - Andre, Rude, Perfect Survivor Series 90 - Perfect, Kerry Von Erich, and Frankie.

Guest Anglesault Report post Posted May 3, 2003 I still think Anvil's next. Anvil can't go until Taker ME's another PPV, most likely a May one. That, my friends, is the Hart Foundation Curse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest AndrewTS Report post Posted May 3, 2003 Thankfully, Taker isn't main eventing and likely won't be until the FBI program is over. Although I have had this horrible realization that Brock/Taker III is inevitable ever since the Rumble. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin 0 Report post Posted May 3, 2003 Yah I could see it headlining Vengeance. Since I doubt the WWE will have enough ocnfidence for Benoit or Rhyno to ME and won/t waste angle/Brock 2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest JMFabiano524 Report post Posted May 3, 2003 And incase you're all wondering, yes, Frankie the fucking bird counts as a WWF Superstar. Actually weren't there a couple of Frankies? (I remember in particular how he'd go from a blue and gold macaw to a scarlet one, especially between televised shows and house shows) And aren't those kind of birds supposed to have the lifespan of some humans?

Guest Choken One Report post Posted May 3, 2003 I just thought of something... It's gone in a Pattern...By Age... Brian was 1st-He was the youngest Owen was 2nd- He was 34 when he died. Bulldog was 3rd- He was older then Owen. That means...if that pattern is the way it goes...BRET not Neidhart is next... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin 0 Report post Posted May 3, 2003 Just wodnerign how old are Bret & Neidhart? Bret I'm assuming around 45, what about anvil? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
