bobkatt013 posted:The best thing about that "movie" is that he is top billed and he is in it for maybe 20 minutes at the most. Yeah but look at the cast. Even 1996 Hogan is the biggest name in it. Maybe Jim Varney, but he is really only a draw in Ernest movies. edit: I am a dummy, I totally missed Victor Wong. Disregard this entire post!!

Realistically in 1998 Jim Varney should have had top billing since by then Toy Story was a thing. And just to remind us all what a mess 2000 WCW was...

UltimoDragonQuest posted:Asya was part of the Revolution, a group of separatist wrestlers. This led to an amazing sign that WCW didn't pull from the crowd and had to blur out on Thunder. You could read parts of it when it was only half on screen. Hulkamatt, please change the thread title to "WCW: ASYA HAS HER OWN CUNTRY" Thank you.

Information if anyone wants to track down a screencap. Asya debuted in October 1999 and the stable fell apart in January. The first Wednesday show was 1/12/2000 which would explain watching Thunder instead of Smackdown. There is a chance it was actually WCW Saturday Night.

Here's a fine gallery of WCW promo pics, With Leather most likely got theirs from a gallery like this one, although, right clicking is disabled. I couldn't just post one photo, because seeing this as a collection really puts things into perspective. http://imageevent.com/publicgallery/mostrecent/wcwpromocollection000;jsessionid=mi64n46c15.eagle_s

The more you know The worst part was that she was worse than Chyna in almost every way - she was smaller, more roided, was somehow more unattractive, was a worse worker, had a worse roid voice, and was part of some really, really lovely angles. Edit: I am floored these promo pictures managed to make Kimberly Page look unattractive. Red fucked around with this message at 20:59 on Jan 21, 2013 |

Also, looking at these pictures make me sad, because Mortis was amazing, and we never got a chance to see Kanyon revive it in WWE.

You would hear that and "FILTHY, DIRTY, NASTY, THAT'S THE WAY WE LIKE IT" a dozen times a show because they kept doing run ins.

Russo probably would have thought it was a good idea too though. Bischoff didn't think he could connect with the crowd through the mask, and thought he'd be a bigger star without it.
