alfdogg 0 Report post Posted October 9, 2004 I remember as a kid watching Superstars/Wrestling Challenge, when a heel tag team would face a team consisting of a jobber and someone like Hercules or Koko B. Ware. The known guy would start the match off and get some of his token offense in, giving me hope that they could pull it off, but then of course he tags the jobber who promptly gets his ass kicked.

MillenniumMan831 0 Report post Posted October 9, 2004 ^^^ Ah yes, good times. I seem to remember Hillbilly Jim and Tito Santana filling those roles as well. It was even neat that they had different classes of jobbers. You had your credible jobbers like Tim Horner, Jim Powers, Iron Mike Sharpe, Barry O, and others. But then you had your jobbers who got little-no offense at all like Red Tyler, Tom Stone, Brain Costello, and of course a host of others. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alfdogg 0 Report post Posted October 9, 2004 When I started watching as a kid, the main face jobbers were Powers & Brunzell. You had Bob Bradley and Brawler on the heel side. I remember a jobber being given a countout win over DiBiase to advance the Virgil angle, and Tom Stone a DQ win over Roberts to advance the Martel angle.

MillenniumMan831 0 Report post Posted October 9, 2004 I was a bit of a Bob Bradley mark. Despite, Horowitz's brilliant intro pose patting himself on the back, my favorite is still Barry O's 'O' sign he'd make over his head. Classy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

UseTheSledgehammerUh 0 Report post Posted October 15, 2004 Graham, wasn't sure where this should go: A comment on... WWF @ Philadelphia, PA - First Union Center - November 29, 1998 Steve Austin defeated WWF World Champino the Rock, the Undertaker, and Kane in a non-title match with the Stunner; the Big Bossman was the special referee for the bout but another referee made the pinfall after Bossman was knocked out Super Astros - 12/13/98: El Hijo Del Santo pinned Jose Estrada Jr. with a victory roll at 4:32 El Torito pinned Mini Nova at 3:19 with a plancha Apollo Dantes fought Negro Casas to a double disqualification after Jose Estrada Jr. and El Hijo Del Santo interfered Sunday Night Heat - shown live ** Comment Heat wasn't shown live. I was at the taping, which began at 1 pm, in Philly, ended around 4 pm. Heat aired at 7 pm I believe, on USA. The other results, were 1. Christian defeated WWE Light-Heavyweight Champion Duane Gill by Disqualification. I do believe this marked the debut of The Blue Meanie, to help Gill retain. 2. D'Lo Brown defeated Steve Blackman by countout. 3. The Godfather and Val Venis defeated The Headbangers. 4. WWE European Champion X-Pac pinned Mark Henry. 5. Kane defeated Jeff Jarrett by Disqualification. 6. The Big Boss Man and Ken Shamrock defeated Al Snow and Mankind. Notes: This had one of the first, if not the first, of Jeff Jarrett's "Do you know what pisses me off?" Vignettes air before his match. In this instance it was, "Do you know what pisses me off? The New York Yankees." Also, a "Blue Blazer" interfered towards one of the end of the matches. It was a chubby black man in the outfit. **** WWF @ Philadelphia, PA - CoreStates Spectrum - January 26, 1997 (matinee) Pre-Game Pandemonium Henry & Phinneas Godwinn defeated Bob Holly (sub. for Davey Boy Smith) & WWF Tag Team Champion Owen Hart Savio Vega (w/ Crush and Farooq) pinned Rocky Miavia with a spin kick Crush pinned Goldust with the heart punch after Hunter Hearst Helmsley interfered The Undertaker & Ahmed Johnson defeated Farooq & Mankind in a Texas Death Match after the Undertaker hit Mankind with a chair so he couldn't get to his feet by the 10 count; earlier falls - Mankind defeated the Undertaker with the Mandible Claw; the Undertaker pinned Mankind with the tombstone Steve Austin fought Vader to a double count-out after about 1 minute WWF IC Champion Hunter Hearst Helmsley pinned Jake Roberts with his feet on the ropes WWF World Champion Shawn Michaels defeated Bret Hart and Psycho Sid in a triple threat match by pinning Hart with a flying bodypress as Hart attempted to put Sid in the Sharpshooter *Note: The Austin/Vader match was billed as a "Special Tough Man Match".
