My fave 5 in no particular order… The Bushwhackers; I loved their zany antics in and around the ring. They were never going to be championship material booked as they were during their WWF heyday, but they were fun and so over with the fans regardless. The British Bulldogs; bit of a...

I thought Air Truth was the name they were running with when they paired initially? Don't know why I thought that. I'm not excited by the tandem in all honesty, but am glad that the tag division appears to be getting some invested interest. Air Jimmy is downright daft in my opinion...

Hardly original. I already named The Godfather and Flash Funk as two very similar gimmicks. I'm sure if I had the want and desire to go do research on your behalf I could uncover one or two more, but being honest I just can't be arsed. A well educated and constructed way to go about...

Good question. I am one of those who do not like Brodus' current gimmick. There's nothing wrong with it per se, it worked for The Godfather and Flash Funk, to a lesser degree (but I wasn't a fan of such a gimmick then either). I guess I'm just struggling due to having seen him already on NXT...

On WWF Attitude for the PS One, my mate and I were engaged in a near hour long battle between Stone Cold and The Rock. We didn't really know how to pull off half the moves at the time, certainly not the finishers and trademark manouvres. He had to pop out the room and I paused the game along...

I am not a fan of The Great Khali. He is clearly physically restricted in what he can do in the ring and his communication skills are non existent. In my opinion, with his current persona and position within the company, then he is not deserving of a title shot. However, if he was to turn...

WrestleMania VII. I was 10 at the time, we didn't have satellite TV in out house so a family friend or an Auntie recorded it for me. I can't really recall most of the card, but these are the matches I do remember: I remember the Nasty Boys/Hart Foundation match with the Nasty Boys nailing Jim...

Good to and fro debate between yourself and others regarding this debate, FF4L. But wikipedia as a source, really? Just to use your own source against you a little concerning the prestige of the title... I voted for Big Daddy, but am really enjoying the debate.

This has been my favourite match up and thread in the tournament thus far. Kudos to all. I don't have much more to say about the big man that hasn't already been said. Legend. Period. Some of the World of Sport clips have brought back some wonderful memories too. Big Daddy would simply...

Two great in ring technicians who left the world too early. Would have been a hell of a match up, no doubt. I never was an Owen Hart fan in all honesty. There's no doubting his talents as a performer, but he never shone for me or grasped my attention long enough for me to appreciate him the...

Scott Hall has been a thoroughly entertaining performer over the years, but Dynamite Kid gets my vote. Despite his reputation as a bully, he was legitimitely tough, technically superior than most, was no slouch in the ring and was certainly as intense a performer and personality as they come...

There are a multitude of ways he could be used without ever stepping foot in a ring again: He's a great worker on the mic so could fulfil a commentary role easily. They could bring back 'The Cutting Edge' as a regular talk show segment. He could easily fill a GM role. He could be a host on...

I agree with the theory that Johnny Laurinaitis is being puppeteered by Vince in his absence away from the company. The rest of it, I haven't really thought out. I reckon Vince will returnto TV in time for a programme leading up to a well deserved Hall of Fame induction and his eventual...

I agree with The Brain that Taz ain't going to use his usual repertoire of suplexes and throw Giant Baba around the ring. Although, didn't Taz suplex a 300 plus pound Bam Bam Bigelow? Maybe he could do it. Taz may have to use his ring savvy and street toughness to get him through some of...

I too get frustrated with the seemingly increase in squash matches involving rostered superstars. But as IHW simply put it, they allow the big men to get wins and the chosen victim gets TV time. But that's about it. Squash matches are pretty restrictive and in my opinion should only be used...

I wasn't a fan of the "Dashing" gimmick. The mirror was something I've seen before with both Shawn Michaels and Lex Luger. But the "Disfigured" persona and mask gimmick was a good and natural transition for someone who thought so highly of themselves and their appearance. It was an...

I often hear praise afforded to Tully Blanchard for his abilities in the ring. Unfortunately, my only experience of him is as part of the technically solid Brain Busters tag team in the then WWF with Arn Anderson. Don't get me wrong, I am aware of his involvement with the ground breaking Four...

I'd have to say SummerSlam for the same reasons that have already been mentioned by others; it is clearly viewed by WWE as the second biggest event of the year after WrestleMania and is promoted in a similar vain by using celebrities and holding a Fan Axxess event. Being honest though, I much...

The bottom line is...everybody has potential. Just everybody gets dealt a different hand and plays their cards differently. Hopefully, the former Skip Sheffield will excel in his role as the re-packaged Ryback. He certainly has the look and and is much more fluid in the ring when compared to...

I think WWE missed an opportunity to introduce a nWo style faction back when CM Punk unleashed his scathing shoot promo on RAW during the summer of 2011. I remember thinking it back then. They could have kept Punk off TV for longer than they actually did and continue to push with his...
