yeah same, if you can make that gimmick work for over 30 years you've got something. There aren't many guys like that in WWE. Is Velveteen Dream one of the only wrestlers left in the company with a completely batshit name? Other than luchadors not many people have monikers like Undertaker or Razor Ramon or Wrath etc etc

Also if you want an extremely solid reason to hate The Undertaker then look up how he treated Kanyon.

I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.

Kanyon was so under-rated and it makes me so sad what he had to struggle with. I was a huge Mortis mark in WCW and I never realized how good Kanyon was until much later. His random Kanyon Cutters in seemingly totally unrelated segments was so much fun.

I think it was just wife-swapping with Bischoff and Eric was the one who kinda gave him a big push to begin with so who could blame him if it was consensual. Edge had an outright affair on his then-wife with a co-worker's girlfriend which is skeezy but as far as I know, Matt, Lita, and Edge are on better terms now.

Bob Backland is generally insane but I don't know of any stories off-hand about him being a lovely person, at least.

There's a reason the Kanyon/Taker angle made a surprisingly deep run in the NY64.

The sheer joy in Taker's face while he brains Kanyon with a chair makes it impossible to accept even on a kayfabe level. It's just horrible on many levels.

I'm pretty sure I read an interview more recently where Matt took a lot of the blame for being a lovely boyfriend. Also they openly joked about it on the E&C show.

Kanyon was absolutely a top 3 guy for me back in high school and how WWE treated him after they bought WCW was just absolutely the worst.

It is remarkable to me how the “Cutter Out of Nowhere” schtick has followed that move to varying degrees from DDP to Kanyon to Randy.

I grew up with the Undertaker but he was never the same to me after American Badass. The last few matches of his have just been hot garbage as well, and anyone with half a brain should have recognized that they needed to cover for how broken he is now.

Bob Backlund's probably killed people. Or at least left them for dead out in the frozen wastes.

Undertaker's 90 manson family gimmick thing was cool before Russo or whoever decided to do the whole Corporate Ministry thing.

Kanyon should have stayed in his Mortis attire I would have loved that. Just have this one guy in skeleton armor in the midst of all these other guys.

i'd never buy an autograph. one time i was at a Chikara show and during the intermission Ophidian was walking around and chatting people up and he came up to me and he was like "enjoying the ssssssssshow?" and i told him i was and that i was disappointed he wasn't wrestling on the card. and then he asked me to buy one of his shirts and i felt really bad for him because his shirts were all white and really ugly and i guess he knew that so he dropped his snake accent and offered me a free autographed picture. so i bought a really crappy Ophidian shirt because i didn't have the guts to tell him his shirts were terrible to his face. so the only autograph i own is Ophidian's. Ophidian later ran out during another match, which explained why he was at the show walking around even though he wasn't on the card. thank you for reading my story.

my autograph story is unrelated to prograps but here it is: my fiancee at the time bought me a subway poster of the bride from kill bill and was at a con where carradine was appearing. she asked him to personalize it for me and he said 'oh, it's not going on ebay? screw the $20, then' and he wrote 'this is one bad rear end bitch' and drew a yin yang and signed it and it was rad but then he embarassed himself the way he died

He did the best autograph sessions. I got a signed pic of Space Ghost at DragonCon back in the early 2000s. Every signed photo came with a “Snak Tip”, mine was “mmmmmmm dryer lint squares”.

I’m pretty sure I lost the signed photo in one of my many moves over the years, but he was a super nice guy. Only time I’ve ever stood in line for an autograph that I can remember.
