"i just downloaded the match between ultimate warrior and hulk hogan on wcw halloween havoc.. hehe.. the match wasnt that good.. in my opinion.. d din maganda ang ending wherein a wrestler (i dnt knw the name) interfered, hit warrior with a chair shot on the back.. and caused him the match.."

 

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

the name of the person that hit warrior with the chair was horac hogan, nephew of hulk hogan.

 

I have the video of the inferno match between sting and vampiro during the great american bash nung WCW pa sila. ang galing ng PPV na yun. nakakaaliw yung mga matches.

 

may match pa dun with ric flair VS his son david flair. ok lang, nakakatuwa din.

I think this was the storyline where Vince Russo was "brainwashing" David Flair (or something like that)

 

This sucked big time. Russo made a big mistake when he inserted himself in the wrestling scene. He should have stayed at the back.

 

Lumaki ulo nya dahil magaganda yung mga storylines nya para sa WWE. Paglipat sa WCW,... pffft

[acidboy]

hahaha! vince russo! nung head din siya ng wcw nagkaroon din ng mock host, si "oklahoma" para tirahin nila si jim ross na may bells palsy. siya rin ang nag-install kay david arquette na wcw champion, na kinagalit ng buong locker room, siya rin ang nagdesign ng laban ni nash at hogan na magpapalitan ng belt so tinulak ni nash si hogan w/one finger tapos tumumba siya at na-pin. ngayon born-again na si vince russo and may book pa siyang nilabas "confessions"

 

mali pala ako dun sa sidekick nga ni hogan. si horace "boulder" hogan nga pala yung nakialam. si ed leslie ang kinidnap ni warrior at gagawin niya sanang 1st member ng warrior nation. eto yung time na nakikita ni hogan si warrior sa salamin sa banyo. hahahaha!

Who among you nice folks remember these names?

 

Ken Patera, Bruiser Brody, Ivan Putski, Tito Santana, Andre the Giant, Bruno Samartino, Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka, Rick Martel, "Quick Draw" Rick McGraw, Killer Khan, Sgt. Slaughter, Pat Patterson, and the Wild Samoans (Afa & Sika).

 

I can't remember the name of this wrestler who, after winning a bout, would destroy the padding on one corner the ring and chew on the foam. They even painted his tongue blue. It was absolutely hilarious because the script called for him to fall in love with Elizabeth. So he kept chasing her around.

 

And these favorite "whipping boys"...Charlie Brown & Steve Jones, from those days when the wrestling matches shown on TV kept featuring one-sided affairs.

 

I remember the time when Sgt. Slaughter posed a challenge to anyone to try to escape his cobra clutch. On one occasion, Pat Patterson accepted the challenge because he was slapped by Sgt. Slaughter...and was actually able to escape. So Sgt, Slaughter hit him on the head with a chair. This set up a "no rules" match between them where Pat Patterson kept shoving the heel of boot down Sgt. Slaughter's mouth. I saw the challenge but not the match. But a magazine featured a lot of photos on the match, as well as a quote from Bruno Samartino decrying the bloodiness of the fight.

 

Another great fight was between Randy "The Macho Man" Savage and The Ultimate Warrior. A big bonus was the drama after the fight when Savage and Elizabeth reconciled.

 

Then there that feud between Andre the Giant and Hulk Hogan. This was when the late Andre turned into a "bad guy." Then again, even before this feud, Andre was already playing the bad guy in Japan.

 

Another great feud was between Hulk Hogan and Antonio Inoki. In one fight, Hogan took out Inoki, such that the handlers were holding out Inoki's tongue to keep him from choking. In the rematch, I believe it was Inoki who won. Hogan didn't take the defeat well. So Inoki dared Hogan to put his WWF titles (I think he held two at the time) on the line to settle everything.

 

By the way, do they still hold barbed wire matches these days? The very thought of a barbed wire match sends shivers all over me.

Yup. He's the one.

I miss The Animal but I don't want to see him back

 

Vader getting old and clumsy on RAW is more than enough "old-school legend" for me

He's ready to rumble

 

Two Rivers man makes it big on popular WWE show

 

By Kevin Braley Herald Times Reporter

 

TWO RIVERS -- Ken Anderson, 29, who grew up in Two Rivers, is not famous.

 

But his arrogant, loudmouth, cocky World Wrestling Entertainment character, Mr. Ken Kennedy, is well on its way to being the next big thing.

 

"The future is promising," Anderson said. "This is a dream come true."

 

Anderson was born in Wisconsin Rapids and raised in Two Rivers, graduating from Washington High School in 1994. Two years later, he began wrestling, working through the ranks to the WWE. He appears on SmackDown often, which airs on Fridays on the UPN network.

 

Anderson grew up watching wrestling in the 1980s -- The Junkyard Dog was his favorite -- but as he got older, he grew out of it, he said.

 

"I fell away from it because there was a time where it wasn't cool to watch wrestling," he said.

 

But in 1996, a friend convinced him to watch wrestling, even though he thought it was all fake and scripted.

 

"My friends told me I had to see this one character and I would love him," Anderson said. "It was Stone Cold Steve Austin and I was instantly hooked."

 

Stone Cold Steve Austin is best known for drinking beer in the wrestling ring, using obscenities and driving trucks into the arena.

 

"Coming from (Two Rivers), I could really relate to a guy driving a pick-up truck and drinking beer," Anderson said. "I got sucked in. I became addicted."

 

Anderson enrolled in a wrestling school in Green Bay in 1999. The classes were held in a low-lit corner of a former retail store.

 

"I felt I was home the first time I stepped into the ring," Anderson said. "I starting learning how to fall, and I couldn't believe how much it hurt. The first time I fell it knocked the wind out of me."

 

Anderson spent nine months training. He began sending tapes to national wrestling organizations and wrestled everywhere he could -- sometimes driving 15 hours one-way to get paid $40 for a match. Sometimes he'd get only a hotdog and a handshake for his matches, he said.

 

"Everybody thought I was nuts, but I thought someday I'm going to make it, and I did," he said.

 

Earlier this year, Anderson was hired by the WWE and spent five months training in Louisville, Ky. This fall, Anderson made his television debut, pinning Sho Funaki.

 

Sheryl Holmes, Anderson's mom, said she didn't immediately agree with Anderson's decision to become a full-time wrestler. He was working at the Kewaunee nuclear power plant as a security guard but quit to pursue wrestling.

 

"I told him, 'Ken, you have bills to pay,'" she said. "But after the first time I saw him wrestle, I knew he had to get into entertainment, I just didn't know if it should be wrestling. I saw so much potential."

 

Holmes said Anderson always wanted attention and made a name for himself as the class clown in high school. Anderson said he was on the swim team and participated in theater. He didn't start lifting weights seriously until he was 19, he said.

 

Jim Wegner, athletic director at Two Rivers High School, said Anderson was a "memorable student."

 

"He had a great personality and a great sense of humor," Wegner said. "I knew he would be successful at something, but I never thought it would be professional wrestling."

 

Wegner encouraged Anderson to get into radio because of his voice and experience announcing the Washington High School basketball games.

 

"I always knew he had such a great voice," Wegner said.

 

In the WWE, Anderson's character announces himself, claiming no one else can properly introduce him. He says in every announcement he's from Green Bay, where he was living when he was signed to the WWE and the nearest metropolitan area of note, he said.

 

Holmes has embraced Anderson's career choice, she said, watching he son wrestle every week. She said watching his Friday night matches, which are recorded earlier in the week, has become a ritual, even though she looks on the Internet to find out the outcome of the match.

 

She still cringes when Anderson climbs on the ropes to jump on an opponent, she said.

 

"He's still my son," she said. "But other times, I think 'wow, he finally made it.'"

George "The Animal" Steele is the guy you're referring to. I remember he made an appearance a few years back, I forgot what was the angle.

 

No more barbed wire matches. Those type of matches were too brutal.
