Ah yes, the famous no-sell match!

Didn't they do a Herc vs Barbarian heel/heel match that year too?

Yeah, but hardly anyone got pinned on TV back then. I think Koko B. Ware may well have been the only semi-pushed babyface I ever saw submit.

Because HHH was going to be the babyface contender to Austin over the summer, so he'd have beaten him before to add interest to the feud.

Is it this match? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zzy5k5pU6LM

Yup. Until Back to the Territories I was sick to death of the over-dramatic Rent-A-Gob. I like him in the role as host for someone else on a shoot, but I could happily live with Jim Cornette never being the subject of one again.

With those 3 people turning on him in just 6 months, Savage showed Sting levels of stupidity.

It was four years later. Relationships change a lot in 4 years. It evidently worked too as it's the feud which really turned about WCW's fortunes on the road.

That's why it worked so well in WCW. She didn't love him anymore, they were divorced, and she was spending the alimony on Flair to live a life of excess, leading to the ready unhinged Savage going absolutely crazy. It was great.

I would happily sell my house and all my belongings to see Adrian Neville as a Geordie Elvis impersonator.

They should have "Here I come to save the day" play at the rumble, he comes out, and Lawler piledrives him as he thinks it's a reincarnation of Kaufman followed by Neville wearing a neck brace for the rest of his career acting like Bob Orton Jr.

Some real memory lane stuff with that Reslo, cheers John! My mate Beefy still calls a wrestling ring the "Ongl Sgwar".

That was D-Lo. The Euro title never meant anything. It's been a one match (Owen vs Bulldog in Germany) title. Nah, I'm pretty sure that was Al Snow. He came out to several themed European stereotypes or whatever. Yeah, for Greece he came out as John Travolta in Grease.

He was with his partner who made me dance, he bought me drinks, told me awesome stories, a real class act.

After spending last night partying with him I can attest Paul London's probably the nicest wrestler ever.

To be honest, in WWE, the only gimmick I can see that wouldn't be getting cheered after a while for being done well or people getting into the spots is a Paedophile gimmick.

Yeah, there's a whole "Mick Foley is a massive dick" thread on the UKFF too, full of personal horror stories of meeting him. http://ukff.com/topic/134725-foley-is-crud/

I was saying "Boo-urns".

Still the best gif.

Seen him wrestle a few times for All Star this year. He's got potential.

He's been doing it for a few years after tapings. I went to Manchester last November and he told awesome Orig Williams stories, and pant-pissingly hilarious Dave Taylor anecdotes, including him asking a Make-A-Wish kid what he wanted to be when he grew up.

The edited VHS was a love letter to solid tag team wrestling if I remember correctly.

I love Brian Christopher, Buff and Disco! All three!

Yeah, I had a few people on Facebook angry about that but I had assumed they just hadn't read the news update from a couple of months ago. Is it more difficulties with Sky? Fuck knows. I'm guessing Sky have just realised the PPVs were going on there and went spare about losing those Sky Box Office pennies.
