haws bah gawd 0 Report post Posted January 12, 2006 Get a look at Scott Steiner's deflated chest. His arms are still massive, but the sagging chest is just sad to see. He officially has an uglier chest tattoo than Brock, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And Mordecai is wearing the Undertaker's old jacket dyed white. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

haws bah gawd 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2006 WTF is up with these chest tats? I'm wondering the same thing. Brock got a combat knife in the middle of his and now Steiner has his gothic cross stabbed through a heart. I guess the chest tattoo is the fad for 2005/6 like the lower/upper back tattoos were of the past couple years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WrestlingFan4Ever 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2006 Yeah, I mean, I just got back from Italy after studying the semester like I stated above, and it really was like 1998 all over again. In fact, my first week there in early september they were showing SummerSlam at a bar, which caused me to start drinking heavily after seeing Shawn job so clean to Hogan. WWE is all over the TV. In fact, I once saw Batista on an Italian sports show promoting WWE coming to Italy. The Eddie Guerrero T-Shirts sold like mad after he passed away as you would see many merchandise stores hanging his shirts on their windows. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
