I think the whole WWF in the early nineties was terrible.

Worst? Giant Gonzalez. Had no character, and could'nt wrestle. He was tall? So what? People already think wrestling is gay without the giant guy in the airbrush bear suit with the airbrushed asscrack...

Double post? I don't have the wisdom for that kind of thing...
 
damn there were a lot of bad ones I forgot about. I totall forgot about bastian booger. that dude must have seriously wanted a contract.

TUGBOAT THOMAS. that had to be one of the dummer ones

yes I miss-spelled the great muta.

Also alex wright was kinda cool when they brought him back as berlin.
 
How can you talk smack about hogan??? sure his wife is a bitch, his daughter a hoe, and is his son a dusche, but he MADE wrestling, without him there would be none of what is on t.v. today. Sure Vince had a lot to do with that, marketing and so forth, but he had HOGAN to market. I guess it took both of them, but still...

He actually had Terry Bollea to market.

I felt so betrayed when Hogan turned into a bad guy and started the NWO. :(
 
The LWO was pretty lame
nWo Wolfpack, which had Sting in red face paint
any gimmick involving Vince McMahon that didnt include Steve Austin
Undertaker as a biker
King Booker
The Ultimate Warrier coming back to WCW and forming the One Warrior Nation
When WCW was going under and you had the young bloods vs the millionairs club
The return of DX when it was Shawn Michaels and Triple H. (Come on, the stuff was funny when they were in theyre late 20's and early 30's, but they are in theyre 40's now.)
Ric Flair hanging around too long and ruining his legacy
The new ECW
Mr. America
Rey Mysterio without his mask in WCW

Agreed. Prior to that his gimmick had been kinda camp.

Shaved bald, given cool entrance music (which I've been searching for for YEARS!), a bodyguard and a heel persona he was awesome. Too bad they didn't go anywhere with it.

That was what made it the greatest heel turn of ALL time. This one event marked the beginning of the Wrestling Renaissance.
 
HHH running the show for 3 years saying he is the only world champ & now the copys like Kurt Angle in WWE & TNA & Edge doing the same this this only one champ angle makes every show so boring & hurts the new guys they do not have any chance of becoming a big superstar

Hogan turning heel was genious, because noone ever thought he was the third guy with Hall and Nash. That threw everyone for the single best loop in wrestling history, sheer genious.

I stopped watching wrestling a couple of years ago. After Eddie Guerrero died I completely stopped caring for it. The only good wrestling nowadays is womens erotic wrestling. :D

The worst gimmicks imo were Isaac Yankem DDS and Glacier. How about that gay guy from WCW, I think his name was Norman Smiley.

I liked the American Badass and his Limp Bizkit entrance.:)

yeah, but do you like that gimmick better than his gimmick he had before and after that one?
 
I've gotta say that wcw didnt get much right, the two things they did get were the nwo and hogan as a heel. After all those years of say your prayers and all that, moving him to a bad guy was sheer genious. The nwo was the beginning of a new eara for wrestling. It turned wrestling from a black/white, good guy/bad guy thing and gave it a grey area where they werent good or bad, just on their own side. Doing that probably saved pro wrestling and made it what it is today, where most of the stars are inbetween bad and good. It was too bad that wcw "creative" people just ran out of ideas, having jay leno wrestling and crap like that.
