Guest Quik Report post Posted July 2, 2002 So, um yeah... Anyway, I missed Raw. I was busy smoking wee--- uh, I mean... I was at my local Church's Youth Group. I noticed 2 weeks ago in his Titantron they had "The Crippler" flash a few times. Is he still in that stupid "Wolverine Machine" persona, or has he gone back to the good old-fashioned Crippler of old? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest AlwaysPissedOff Report post Posted July 2, 2002 "Wolverine Machine"? The fuck? He hasn't switched nicknames or anything. He's been "The Rabid Wolverine" and "The Crippler" for years.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Quik Report post Posted July 2, 2002 Remember last year, they decided to stop calling him the rippler, and instead focus on calling him the Wolverine Machine? They even had him wear stupid tights with a metallic wolf or something on them. They removed "The Crippler" from his titantron ,and focused on that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Dr. Wrestlingphysics Report post Posted July 2, 2002 When he turned face before his injury and operation, JR stopprd calling him the Rabid Wolverine, and instead called Benoit the Wolverine Machine. And Smarks accuse WWE of having short memories! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest AlwaysPissedOff Report post Posted July 2, 2002 They removed "The Crippler" from his titantron ,and focused on that. Hmmm.... I just got finished watching soem WWF TV leading up to when he left and I can still recall seeing "The Crippler" in his Titantron... When he turned face before his injury and operation, JR stopprd calling him the Rabid Wolverine, and instead called Benoit the Wolverine Machine. And Smarks accuse WWE of having short memories! LOL! Hey now! I normally tune JR and The King Pedophile out whenever I watch anything on RAW and PPV... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Some Guy Report post Posted July 2, 2002 It was a Wovlerine on his tights, not a "wolf or somehting" and yes that "Wovlerine Machine" gimmick and his lavender tights were ghey. It did say "Crippler" in his Titan Tron. He was wearing new style blue tights with a wovlerine on them. How's that for paying attention? And no I'm not gay for Benoit, I just notice stuff like that.

Guest Nevermortal Report post Posted July 2, 2002 I dislike "Wolverine Machine". You've got Kane as a "Big Red Machine". And we really don't need to be reminded of the Machines. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest RavishingRickRudo Report post Posted July 2, 2002 He can be the rabid wolverine again because that rabid rattlesnake is at home in rabid texas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Combat Apparatus Report post Posted July 2, 2002 I liked how on RAW JR said it was Benoit's first time back in "This Very Ring" in over a year. Now, was the match at KOTR last year in that exact ring? And wasn't Benoit in the ring more than a few times in the last few weeks that he's been back? And about the tights thing, I've always liked the Black Tights with the claw marks in them better than anything he's ever worn. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Anglesault Report post Posted July 2, 2002 Benoit's tights were blue? They were coming off as REALLY faggy purple. But then I realized that Eddy's tights shouldn't be this glowing orange (It was actually radiating orange) so I adjusted the tint and brightness and got more of a blue and red.

Guest RavishingRickRudo Report post Posted July 2, 2002 Benoit needs to bring back the 4h tights. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest stonecold markout Report post Posted July 2, 2002 I am really glad Benoit finally wrestled tonight, it's been a long time coming. Eddie and him work really well together. As far as his tights.... Benoit looks awesome in anything! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest M Nyland Report post Posted July 2, 2002 I would mark for the 4 Horsemen tights.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Zero_Cool Report post Posted July 2, 2002 Heh, remember his 96-97 tights. They were Hunter Heart Helmsley style with the crotch all cut out and replaced with red velvet or something. Anyway, Benoit came back and looked exactly the way he looked before he left. He didn't put on 30 pounds! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest M Nyland Report post Posted July 2, 2002 Benoit is JUST TOO AWESOME for the power of Roid Rage! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest art_vandelay Report post Posted July 2, 2002 Benoit's tights were blue? They were coming off as REALLY faggy purple. He DID have faggy purple pants. He and Jericho both wore them during their tag match when HHH tore his quad. Benoit and Jericho have both worn very shitty tights. Sometimes I think they may look better if they switched to the speedos. It helped Triple H. **insert joke about what really helped Triple H here** Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
