Another great Hogan moment is that after his racism he was allowed to appear at a WWE show again. He gave a talk in the locker room ostensibly to apologise for what happened, but his apology was that you should be careful of what you say because you don't know when someone might be recording you.

Sydney Bottocks posted:Prior to Vince taking over the industry during the 1980s with his vision of what a wrestler should look like, most wrestlers looked like an average dude, or a dockworker with a big beer gut, or were like 300 lbs. of mostly flab. The super buff and cut dudes were very much the exception rather than the rule, at least prior to Vince deciding that every wrestler needed to be over 6 feet tall and look like they were a Greek sculpture come to life. There were certainly plenty of athletic wrestlers, but the current standard is a mix of 80s machismo and Vince's personal preferences for muscular men. Witness his near orgasmic valuation of Gary Strydom. https://youtu.be/AbsRtuoIDSc

Eclipse12 posted:drat that's impressive. I can't wait until the small high-flying guys start showing up in Raw. So few of them in 1993. I remember liking 1-2-3 Kid... And there's Koko... who who else doing acrobatics would be around pre-Attitude? You'll have to start watching WCW Nitro for that. Ignore Hogan and his friends, marvel at a fantastic lightweight division.

Anyway, he's not wrong about the screwjob. His shoot interview with Bobby Heenan is still worth watching. One of the myths about the screwjob was that Bret was due to appear on WCW days later, possibly with the title. But that wasn't true. For one, as dumb as they are, they were already in hot water with WWF over the Madusa incident. There were legal wranglings behind the scenes, they weren't about to do the same thing again. Bret, in reality, didn't appear until about a month later, which had always been the plan. If they were going to capitalise on Bret by putting him on TV that week they would have done regardless of if he's holding the title.

If you're waiting for those early Raw episodes to get good you might have to jump ahead a few years. The New Generation is rough going until WCW start airing Nitro and the WWF start putting real effort in.

The Bushwhackers got both a 5 and a -5 star rating from Dave Meltzer. Pioneers in their field.

Similar to how Bayley was over huge in NXT. Totally natural babyface, easy to root for. Except when she went to the main roster they gave her act about a week to get over and now she's a heel.

Amazingly he owes his career to his rapping skills given that he was freestlying on a bus and Steph McMahon overheard and saw dollar signs.

Prof. Crocodile posted:Well gently caress Not really. RAW on a Monday is 3 hours long and is mostly talking, AEW Dynamite on a Wednesday is 2 hours and mostly wrestling. There's been episodes of RAW where it's been an hour before there's any Wrestling on. Granted it can fluctuate from time to time but usually in a 2 hour show you get 6 matches. They only did 4 this week but one of those was about 40 minutes.
