Surreal Royal Rumble moment

[Guest Trivia247]

Hogan is in trouble in the corner..... being lifted up by Haku and Hercules... then Big Earthquake comes over and grabs up Hogan's Legs. They are about to throw him out... But someone makes the save...

 

By.... SHANE DOUGLAS!

Ooh?

[Internet Warfare 0]

when was his?

Yep, I remember seeing that as well. Shane Douglas was in the WWF pre-Dynamic Dudes for a few months and was in the 91 Royal Rumble.

when was his?

The 1991 Royal Rumble...

[Guest OSIcon]

Shane Douglas was in the WWF pre-Dynamic Dudes for a few months

 

That would be post Dynamic Dudes (that was 1989) but before his WCW run in '92 where he teamed with Steamboat.

i'd imagine thats the proper timeline

How is Shane saving Hogan SURREAL...if it was Flair...I'd agree.

 

Shane Hates everyone...but Flair the most.

 

when did this fuck ever think he was flair's protege? Wasn't Flair all over Scott Steiner and Austin's cock at this period anyways?

This is surreal....WHY?! Babyfaces always saved babyfaces back then.

 

Now, Sid tossing Hogan in 1992 was surreal. NO ONE expected that.

According to a Douglas interview on one of the last eps of Thunder, he said that he came to Flair to watch his matches and critique them. Flair said sure. Douglas would have his matches and Flair would tell him he did great and do the same thing the next night. After a while, Shane realized that Flair wasn't watching his matches after all . . . and Ooooo Boy he got bitter beer face ever since.

Shane being what would be for some as big of a name (Strictly promotionally wise) For ECW as a Hogan was in WWF and a Flair was in NWA/WCW

 

And yes he did hate everyone and Flair on a personal level. I doubt he has any love for Hogan as he would be part of the establishment in wrestling that kept him down in the midcards in WCW and lowcard probably in early WWF

[Guest Astro]

Shane left the WWF to tend to his ailing parent If I remember correctly- I believe they had Jimmy Hart working on new music for him as he was about to embark on a big push

[Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes]

I remember renting RRumble 91 a while back, and being completely clueless about Shane Douglas being in WWF around that time.

[Guest The Imp]

Didn't Douglas pull off a classic Piper Double Eye Poke in the '91 Rumble???

[Guest Choken One]

the amazing thing was...Douglas had a decent run in the rumble...i could have seen him sticking around and having mid-card run.

He looks a little like Lex Luger in that picture. I think it's only cuz he's pointing at the camera. Every Lex Luger promo is him pointing to the camera and just talking in a mono tone voice but screaming every so often that we would wake up.

lmao I never thought of looking at Luger that way. Anyone remember when Randay Savage would stat talking really low and then just scream outta nowhere?

99% of his promos WERE talking loud, then calmly and exploding again. I think it's rare to see him NOT do it.

I remember this very well. He would be giving a promo and almost whispering, to the point where I had to turn the volume up. Then he would just start yelling and it'd blow me away b/c I had the volume up so high
