Graham was a competent worker. It's actually really fun watching Mike Graham wrestle guys like Flair and Bockwinkel and making them look like giants while having an old-school match with them.

Bill DeMott was a good choice for Goldberg's first victim.

I think it's real hosed up that any of you can imply you dislike Mike Graham right here, on the very forum he created.

Parlett316 posted:He did give us one of the best wrestling burns of all time Oh yeah, forgot about that. Though really it probably came from a place of hating everyone that wasn't a 6'5+ hoss and hadn't drawn WWF upper card money and not a well thought out critique of Jeff Jarrett's own unwarranted self-importance. Mike Graham had a very, very specific idea of what a wrestler should be (which is hilarious because he fit none of those things himself; never drew, was tiny, had no charisma, never main evented to the degree he held other wrestlers to, never sold merch, etc.) but if you throw enough poo poo at the vanilla midget wall, some of it will eventually stick on someone I guess.

It really is sad that the War Games match has been lost to time. Like at this point if they brought it back, I don't think it would even matter. Sure they made that DVD, but I don't think the average WWE fan watched it. Yeah they could hype up the history of the match and make a big deal of it again, it's just dumb they couldn't continue it's tradition because Vince hates southern wrasslin. They could have done Nexus vs WWE, or Evolution vs whoever, or even Wyatts vs Shield. It would have overlapped with WCW, but DX vs the Nation or the Corporation would have been a cool Wargames match too.

Mike Quackenbush seems really passionate about wrestling and Chikara has been a fun promotion. Jigsaw's mask is pretty cool looking; it reminds me of Deadpool. Sandman had a cool intro song.

Sandman's ability to drinks 12 beers and smoke a carton of cigarettes before every match was quite impressive.

I missed the 80s so most of my initial exposure to Piper was largely feuding with the nWo, that incredibly racist picture of him in blackface, him calling Goldust a fag, and They Live. I don't hate Piper but I have mixed feelings. They Live was cool though.

The ants in the colony are pretty cool wrestlers when they are in any other gimmick. Colt had a pretty good feud with homicide once upon a time. Brutus Magnus probably doesn't beat his kids.

I laugh whenever Jerry Lawler does that "AAAAAAAGH" thing every time someone does a big move. It might be the only thing about his commentary I enjoy, which is good because he does it often.

Kevin Nash at least understands that you should come out of wrestling with a body and a retirement plan that works. He also once did a really cool move (the Emerald City Twister).

Matt Hardy wasn't really fat(I haven't seen him in like a year & a half so he very well could be now).

Regrettable posted:Matt Hardy wasn't really fat(I haven't seen him in like a year & a half so he very well could be now). He wasn't so much fat as he was out of shape, because he was unable to work out due to a hernia he was constantly aggravating by continuing to wrestle because he has the poo brain.

Randy Orton's old release the doves thing with the pyro was actually very cool. Kelly Kelly left wrestling to the pros and got out of the business. The Bellas have actually been quite amusing on a couple of occasions - their whole "vegan" thing with Bryan, and were very effective heels opposite Kharma. And the one who's married to Bryan seems reasonably nice. Piper worked pretty well in that Nexus/Cena segment a few years ago.
