honestly I would have to go for Big dust himself....Dusty Rhodes

[Guest saturnmark4life]

I think Dusty Rhodes in a commissioner role is the only 'Crack smokingly retarded nostaligia-hiring' I could ever condone at this point. I actually thought that he would be Smackdown GM for all of three seconds before I remembered Steph was still alive. Lay out 5 talented wrestlers with bionic elbows, Dust! I don't give a fuck!

 

I've always admitted to liking Big Show, his matches are never good, but I always find them watchable, something I can't say about RVD, HHH, taker, kane...

[Guest Goose749]

Jake "The Snake" Roberts when I was younger.

Now, I'm more of a Hart / Dungeon-grads fan. I'll also give good words about Michael's school.

[Guest Vyce]

Sean O'Haire.

 

The sad thing is, I never considered him someone who should be a "guilty pleasure", until I saw how universally hated he is by the people on this board.

[Guest The Decadent Slacker]

See, O'Haire isn't BAD. He can work, but he's got that WWE Style: Hoss Mode thing going. I'm waiting for him to be in the next couple batches of talent cuts, so TNA can use him in at least a better way. I love Piper, but pairing O'Haire with him was the biggest mistake they could make. Next to using him in a George of the Jungle gimmick, & cashing in on the bizarre resemblence to Brendan Fraser. Course that would SO mean a Rock feud

 

HHH. Not the current one, anything from '97 to pre injury. He was never an awesome worker (2000 was amazing, but he's no Hart or Michaels), but he could GO. his matches with Goldust in '97 were good for some reason, although i credit that to the one shot deal of Curtis Hughes.

 

I'd also through in Barry Windham. After his peak years i mean. I watched WCW SuperBrawl 3 (great show, actually) & his match with Muta was boring as fuck, but i just like the guy, even during the Stalker/New Blackjacks era. While i'm at it, i liked Bradshaw for awhile, from the Acolytes debut under Jackyl (lasted like a week, i think) to the APA era. when he just went out & beat the shit out of people or bantered with Faarooq, he was great. Then came the brand extension, & the rest is history. i refuse to acknowlege the current APA, mainly since Bradshaw looks too faggy now & they don't fucking protect people anymore. wait-throw in the past their prime card & thats it.

[Guest Dangerous A]

I go with Dusty Rhodes.

 

Past, Present, and Future.

 

God Bless that Man!!

[Guest Indy]

Friggin Scott Hall. I don't care about his history, I am a Hall mark 4 life!

 

[Rendclaw 0]

I have to admit that i marked out for Glacier.

 

I know he was green as hell and not really worthy of the push he got, but I have to say I was entertained, right up until Perry Saturn called him out about his "Cryonic Kick".

 

And then I was even more entertained.

 

Speaking of Saturn, the Eliminators were one of the best tag teams I have ever seen, back when they would just come out ala The Road Warriors and just give everyone Total Elmination in those end-of-show schmozzes.

 

the Faces of Fear were also pretty good, though i will agree with the opinions about the Islanders. Haku's dropkick was a thing of beauty, better than Brunzell's, whose dropkick was considered one of the best in the business at the time, though Rocky Johnson had the best one.

 

The SST out and out scared me with their intensity and their feud with the Road Warriors was one of the greats. I think thats what they were trying to go for with 3MW, it just didn't work very well.

[Guest Plushy Al Logan]

Cryonic kick? Bah, eat Saturn kick, mofo.

 

The Eliminators, yeah. I remember seeing something in one of em, can't remember which...

[Guest Drury37]

Ok my all time guilty pleasure is probably Virgil!!! My other ones are Dustin Rhodes and Maven!!!

Thanks.

[Placebo Effect 0]

Erik Watts - Was a fan of his starting from his WCW 1998 return as a jobber. Those PANTS man, those PANTS.

Test - Don't know why, but I like him.

Kevin Nash - Always liked him on the mic, despite the blah wrestling.

Perfect Event - Hilarious backstage stuff in WCW.

La Resistance

Sean O'Haire - Even HOSSified.

Big Boss Man when he became evil (Al Snow, Big Show)

The Cat - In WCW 2000, when Russo brought this motherfucker to life.

Waylon Mercy - Of course.

New Diesel and New Razor - Dunno.

3 Count - Such a great gimmick.

Devon Storm - Despite his wrestling being repetitive.

 

Indies

Christopher St. Connection - Hilarious group.

Christian York - Loved the look he was sporting in XPW (hair in dreads)

Pogo the Clown - Any character based off of John Wayne Gacy is great. I actually own the t-shirt.

Kaos/GQ Money

Special K - Greatest gimmick ever, one that Paul Heyman would've ended up using if ECW was still around.

[Guest The Decadent Slacker]

I always have dug Glenn Jacobs. He's nowhere near as bad as people say he is, & he can talk (i loved the short lived Kane-risma thing. He could have gotten over huge with that). Too bad he'll never draw again.

 

I like Nowinski. I see a lot of HHH in him (in that good way), which makes sense due to Kowalski's training. He could be something if they'd use him properly.

 

Orton. Any wrestler in the last 15 years named Orton. Cowboy Bob was a pretty good worker, considering the crowd in the late '80s WWF. Randy isn't horrible, but isn't what you'd call "it". Still green, but has good mic skills. only drawback is that he has a certain Billy Gunn factor, i think.

[Guest The Voices In Your Head]

The Sandman - I realize that he's an awful worker and all, but I can't help but mark for him, with his entrance.

 

La Resistance -I don't even know why, maybe it's just the name

 

Triple H -I liked him from the time he won the title from Foley in '99 until early 2001 after he beat Austin in the Three Stages of Hell match.

 

Billy & Chuck- I cheered for them since nobody else would back before they won the tag titles. In another guilty pleasure, I mark for their entrance music. I'm not proud of it.

[Guest JHawk]

I'd have to say Maven right now. He could use some additions to his moveset, but he seemingly has no problems keeping himself over.

[Guest The ChriZa]

What a great question...yeah I got some...

 

Kamala

Akeem

Nasty Boys

Repo Man

Ultimate Warrior (My first ever favorite)

Hall and Nash

Rick Martel (I still want a "Yes, I am a model" pin)

Yokozuna (Should I feel guilty about this one? He was more talented than some of the guys half his size)

3 Minute Warning

Shane McMahon

 

And probably my all time biggest guilty pleasure...

 

X to the P to the A to the C

I've always been a Waltman mark. Ever since Razor Ramon was "beaten by a scrub". X-Pac should get his job back and destroy Triple H for the Raw title. You know you want it.

[Rendclaw 0]

Cryonic kick? Bah, eat Saturn kick, mofo.

 

The Eliminators, yeah. I remember seeing something in one of em, can't remember which...

The promo Saturn cut on Glacier about it was pretty dry but it was hilarious because he was right.

 

The it became a feud to show who had the best standing side kick.... it was priceless...

 

 

One of the ECW opening clips showed a TE on a jobber and balled him up on the back of his neck.... combine that with the head-and-arm tazplex on Mikey Whipwreck.... yikes...

ahh the good ole days...

[Guest The Decadent Slacker]

Yokozuna was, i think, one of the best big men of all time. I mean, he's 550-600+ most of his career. & he can keep up with guys like Bret pretty damn well. He didn't even get blown up at WM9, if i remember correctly. the only reason people shit on him, i think, is because he could work & was above the 450 cutoff point for workrate (450 set by Vader).

 

Speaking of which, WM9 is one of my all time favorite shows. As a mark it was the first tape i rented, & i loved it & still do. HBK-Tatanka is one of my favorite matches ever, & i clock it about ***1/2, if for nothing more than sentimental value.

 

I'll also add the Warlord (he could have been huge, booked correctly), Mikey Whipwreck (spike WISHES he could underdog like Mikey), Steve Blackman (he wasn't terrible, just boring as fuck when not with Al Snow) & Brian "Underfaker" Lee (he was a good big man, just wasn't special).

[Guest Coffey]

Randy Orton, Bill DeMott, & Sean Morley.

 

Hulk Hogan used to be at the top of the list, but we all know about his hiatus.

[Guest sean pyro]

The Cat and alot of others from wCw.

[Guest Deviant]

Good GOD how many people like Big Show and Brian Clark?!? That is just wrong.

 

So far, the main ones I can agree with are Repo Man and Bossman's legendary RR 2000 performance.

[Guest godthedog]

yokozuna could not work. his match with luger at wrestlemania is one of the most boring things i've ever seen. he does a whole lot of nothing. then, with bret, he does a whole lot more nothing. bret deserves all the *1/2 that match got, cause he did ALL the work.

[Guest Prototype450]

Shane Douglas

Kronik I marked when they were breaking necks and cashing checks

[Guest Super Leather]

Corporal Kirschner. Remember him? Man, he was terrible. His one chance to shine was at WMII against Nikolai Volkoff, who'd beaten him just about every other time I saw them wrestle. I even used to have the Corporal Kirschner action figure.

 

Ron Simmons & Butch Reed as Doom.

 

Sid Vicious and Dan Spivey. The masters of the power bomb!

 

Mean Mark. I was so happy when he came into Survivor Series as "Kane the Undertaker" and beat up Dusty Rhodes.

 

The Sandman. Purely for his entrance.

 

King Kong Bundy. "I want you to think about the five-count, SD Jones! 1234FIVE! BOOM!"

 

One Man Gang. Once Akeem became a reality, I hated him.

 

Bam Bam Bigelow. Reading about him in Wrestling Power made me love the guy. He used to do a top rope splash and called it the "Nuclear Splash." Sadly he never did anything of the sort in the WWF and instead resorted to his stupid top rope headbutt that never connects.

 

Jim "the Anvil" Neidhart. I actually used to think he was a better wrestler than Bret Hart. Hahahahahahahahahaha.

 

The Mulkey Brothers! Every time they came out, I went nuts knowing they were about to get a whuppin'.

 

Brutus Beefcake. The Brutus "the Barber" gimmick got old though, and the Booty Man and anything else he did in WCW was just embarrassing.

 

Nikolai Volkoff. I really felt sorry for him when he was with the Million Dollar team and made to look like a fool.

 

The Koloffs, Iron Sheik, Boris Zhukov. I remember some jobber squash match in which the referee full on kicked Boris in the stomach. He cut a hilarious promo about it afterwards.

 

Colonel DeBeers.

Of course, the fatter he got, the smaller the effort quotient became, & WM was probably the worst he did, of course Luger isn't exactly ringwork Jesus either. at WM9, he was 505, & had mobility. he gained another 50-60 lbs by WM10, & he lost any aspect of workrate he had until becoming relatively good during the Owen tag team (thanks to Owen, natch.) I've never liked his matches with Luger anyway, because both of them were guys that required a good opponent to carry them (i see "work" in the effort sense: will at least attempt to bump, sell for the opponent-just TRYING to put on a good match), as witnessed by Luger's Flair matches & Yoko's stuff with Bret, HBK, & Hennig. But that's merely my opinion.
