    The thing I remember most about this match is that I heard the rumor about the Warrior of this match wasn't the same, from my mother of all people.

    Bret in WCW in '92 could have changed EVERYTHING, had they really done something with him and he stayed. Hell, WCW might be still in business.

    They did it the previous year too.

    The more I think about it, you're right. Hogan helping Sid get tossed out was a total bitch move. And an anti-climactic ending to an otherwise stellar Rumble. As to the question, I'd think so. If I try to think with the mark mindset, my money would have been on Hogan winning just because. Flair would certainly have been a possibility. But if I watched it today I'd say that Flair would absolutely have won it. The early draw makes for a compelling story, and the win would set up a big title match at WM for whoever it was to beat him.

    Quadrophenia Every match ever filmed that took place in a four-sided ring.

    Eh, I keep thinking this thread is more about specifically the fall from grace on the roster than in personal lives and such.

    Last guy I can think of (maybe besides Del Rio currently) who pulled of the suits was Batista. I forget which match it was for the build-up for but he came out in a grey number with sunglasses. Besides the flashy suit (something he probably gleaned off from being with Flair), he gave off a heavy vibe of intimidation. He looked more like Tom Sizemore in the bank shootout in Heat than he did a pro wrestler.

    It was mentioned a few times during the show.

    Man, they should have had Undertaker do a program with Doink instead of Jorge. It would largely be a homage to the Batman/Joker dynamic but it could have worked in a pro wrestling setting.

    It also had international prestige to some extent too.

    I don't believe one iota the low rating will affect Bryan much. When two of your top talents (hometown guys or not) probably spent more time watching the game than the show, they would have had to know how huge the game was.

    Don't know if this was intentional or not but it's funny how they almost made Bobby a face in MSG around this time. Really sad you guys didn't include the Haku/Barbarian vs. Fuji/Kato match from July, with Bobby acting as both manager and announcer.

    As far as Heenan, you would have had to know that his character had a particular hatred for Hogan in his WWF career, from the tone in which he said that now (for silly reasons) infamous line. Even from the very beginning, I believe his first promo was that Big John Studd would beat Hulk for the belt. And as Bobby pretty much was on auto-pilot in WCW, to hear him say such a thing didn't register as giving the plot away. I didn't watch the PPV, because our cable company didn't start carrying WCW PPV's every month until later that year. I first saw the segment I believe on the following week's edition of Worldwide. Even then I didn't give the line much credence.

    Yes. They said on Twitter they placed a Trading Places one-dollar bet over the Cup.

    Referring to his real name.
  17. flyonthewall2983
    What an unfortunate name.

    There's an episode of Top Gear (UK) where the three guys go to Romania and at some point get lost in what is described as "Borat country". At one point their cars are surrounded by gawking locals and kids. One of them writes "John Cena" on one of the dustier parts of one of the cars.

    They keep the original masters of stuff they overdub (entrance music and such) right?

    I like what they're doing with Del Rio as a heel now. They're playing up the more vicious side of the character as opposed to the Mexican fatcat part of it.
  22. flyonthewall2983
    That is cool and all, but Jesus they need some stronger shelves!

    Did it ever air or has it been canned since Reid died?
  24. flyonthewall2983
    Jim hasn't done anything with them since the '97 Timeline, and I know it's *not* because KC isn't interested in doing anything with him. Then if that's the case then fine, they have certainly gotten enough out of Jimbo anyway.

    What happened? "Cornette has had a falling out with __________" is something you can pretty much set your watch to. http://www.infinitecore.ca/superstar/index...?threadid=74987 Thread that Mike and El-P were referring to. I wouldn't say that that is necessarily a falling out with KC. He worded it as such that buried Russo without putting too much on them.
