Anyone have a picture of when the Giant gave Hogan

[Vampiro69 0]

I am curious because my girlfreind wants a picture of it to use for a college project. She thinks it would be funny to use.

 

If anyone has a picture of a screen shot it would be most appreciated.

To the best of my knowledge, This was on Wrestlecrap, before the site purge. Your best bet is to get a copy of the event, jack your VCR into your computer (or better yet get a dvd-r copy), and get a screencap

 

But I'm not in America, nor do I have the event, so I'm no help

Do you remember what the event was by any chance? I have been unable to figure it out.

 

If anyone else has the picture I would appreciate it very much.

Giant debuted around Fall Brawl 95 (my memory is extremely sketchy), but there are some great WCW history sites, like www.ddtdigest.com that would be better served to help you in that regard. The actual angle was on a Nitro around that time period, leading up to the truly Wrestlecrap worthy Monster Truck Match, and in recapping that, he brought up the shirt angle.

 

Sorry my help isn't more spefific, but I try.

He gave him the shirt on the Main Event prior to BATB 95. I don't have a pic, though.

If the picture was on Wrestlecrap, I'm fairly certain RD would e-mail it to you. Just e-mail him and ask him nicely.

Haha I forgot the Giant was Andre's "son".

I think that the angle actually was named the worst angle of the year in 1995. Hard to believe that it was 9 years ago.

1995 had other crap-tastic angles...

 

The conclussion of the "Brother vs. Brother" feud that set the world's snooze button.

 

The Dung(eon) of Doom.

 

Flair, Arn, and Vader destroying Randy Savage's father at Slamboree.

 

UNCENSORED 1995 in general

 

The Renegade

 

And for WWF...

 

Jean Pierre Lafitte stealing Bret's JACKET.

 

Mabel as a main eventer

 

HBK post concussion syndrom (looking back at it now it was a cheap way to get sympathy)

 

LT vs. Bam Bam Bigelow main eventing WRESTLEMANIA

 

Goldust: Homosexual or just a weird freakin' dude.

 

 

The list goes on and on.

Jean Pierre Lafitte stealing Bret's JACKET.

At least we got 2 good matches out of it.

 

 

If I had to pick the worst thing in 95 i'd say it was the Henry Godwinn/Corporation angle,

even without the "slopping" it was obvious that Godwinn was going to go thorugh the jobbers(Tatanka and Bundy) before losing to Sid.

LT vs. Bam Bam Bigelow main eventing WRESTLEMANIA

 

-----------

 

This match allowed the WWF to get WM promoted thanks to Inside Edition, ESPN, ET! and other mianstream sources. PWI even declared that the WWF retook the #1 promotion spot with that one media blitz.

 

It didn't hurt that WM was only a few weeks after Uncensored 95, which was considered a HUGE bomb.

 

/Sadly I own a copy of UNCENCORED....sigh
