NobesBLO13 Posted June 14, 2015 Posted June 14, 2015 This thread reminds me of a Richard Christy prank call where he just rattles off wrestler names to a radio host. It's hilarious, I'd post a link but I'm on my phone.

The Poojer Posted June 15, 2015 Posted June 15, 2015 One of the junior poojers still watches WWE and I find myself watching too. They still know how to put out an entertaining product.

That's Orndorff and thankfully he is still alive. To many wrestlers have died over the years.

Rob's House Posted June 15, 2015 Posted June 15, 2015 Hulk Hogan takes the crown, and quite frankly it isn't even close. After being the "sport's" hero for 2 decades he finally went bad and made the best heel ever as Hollywood Hogan. The runner up IMO is Stone Cold Steve Austin because he was a great **** talker (and that's really what it's all about). Also, Roddy Piper, Bobby Heenan, and Brother Love were some of the best entertainers as managers and commentators. Honorable mention for Brutus Beefcake. That guy was awesome.

May Day 10 Posted June 15, 2015 Posted June 15, 2015 HHH was pretty good back in the day. Mick Foley too. I always thought the Rock's schtick was too boring and predictable. His finishing moves were also puzzling. Didn't think he took as many risks as other guys either. I didn't watch though in his 'rise'. I watched from like 99 - 04. Also catch it once in awhile for S&G. It seems to me that they are running on fumes. 3 hours for Raw is a bad idea. The personalities are bleh. The one guy who was worth a damn doesnt want anything to do with it (CM Punk).
