I never understood how the New Blood were the heels in WCW. You had young guys wanting a chance to prove themselves and not be held down by the aging, overpaid, overpushed ex WWF guys. What made them heels?

The original plan IIRC was that the New Blood was going to be the face group, but since it was Vince Russo writing it they were a much larger group than the Millionaire's Club (So the dastardly heels would always be at a disadvantage), and they came off as whiny douchebags (Not to mention a significant portion of the New Blood were already heels and vice versa for the Millionaire's Club), so they just went with it.

This video is amazing:

http://www.twitvid.com/MK1Z2

Matt Hardy posted this video of him doing a celebration in the ring after the match (in front of a sold out capacity crowd!) to show he and Reby Sky working together (SkyHard!) - but the best part is after the post match celebration.

An announcer comes into the ring and reveals that you can get your picture taken with them both for only 20 dollars to which guys right next to the camera say things like "If it were Jeff it'd be different" and "I wouldn't even pay ten dollars for that."

And Matt is spreading it around himself.

Savage is a chameleon.

I love the bit at the end after he rambles on.

Gene: Can I ask a question Macho Man?
Savage: NO MORE QUESTIONS!
Gene: I'm sorry about that.

He and Gene had the best exchanges during interviews but my favorite will always be

Savage: Your mustache is crooked!
Gene: Your beard is a little sideways too but I don't wanna get into that!
Savage: That's alright!
Gene: I'm not going to take personal potshots at you or anybody else, that's not my nature.
Savage: Get in line everybody's after me!
Gene: I'm a little better guy than that I don't mind tellin' ya.
Savage: Cool.
Gene: I'm the bigger man!
Savage: Cool, cool.
Gene: How did we get into this?
Savage: Ok man.

Old Man Zbyszko rants about Jericho for nearly fifteen minutes.

For those not able to watch (or invest 15 minutes in his bullshit rants) here is a summary - during this rant he:

* Holds up a roll of toilet paper and calls it "Jericho's book"
* Says that wrestlers "belong to the fans and not the McMahons"
* Attacks Jericho for using the living legend nickname.
* Calls Jericho a "Putrid Pussy Punk Puke Prick."
* Says Chris Jericho is 5 foot 6
* Admits to one of his buddies pirating Jericho's book because he wouldn't buy it
* Accuses Jericho of trying to get himself over by stealing the living legend gimmick
* Calls him "Jerk-o" Clever!
* Says Jericho better not run into "This stubborn Pollock on the street unless he has hospitalization insurance"
* Tells him to stick to dancing and calls him a little fairy.
* Challenges Chris Jericho on April 9th to meet him in the ring.
* Makes a bitter knock on the WWE Hall Of Fame as a joke and then shows his "New England Pro Wrestling Hall Of Fame" award.
* Has incredibly hosed up bottom teeth.

He and Scott Hall also watch a Hall vs Jericho match and do a (probably delusional) breakdown where they say Jericho has no talent and should be lucky he ever got a break. Zbyszko is such a mark for himself and his own hype and Hall looks like he's aged 30 years in the last few.

Larry as a wrestler is okay but he was always horrible on commentary during cruiserweight matches and his refusal to break character when talking about Louie Spicolli dying was a disgrace. Why is he in the same room with his hated foe Scott Hall of the New World Odor??!!??!?!

Having recently finished watching old Nitros I can recommend watching these clip packages instead, they're a lot more interesting and make very boring wrestlers look better.

So that's why Jericho mentioned Last Call with Scott Hall on his Twitter.

Also, Larry's not too far off on the height. I ran into him after a show once and he was only an inch or two taller than me (5'6"), tops.

Either WWE, Wikipedia or Jericho are exaggerating quite a bit then:

Billed height 6 ft 0 in (1.83 m)

Then again I've read here that they fudge the numbers on wrestlers heights all the time. I don't know if I believe Jericho is that short though.

Definitely. Jericho wears lifts and even then probably doesn't break 6'0" since billed height in wrestling is inflated. I figure his legitimate height is probably around 5'8".

That's why it says billed height.

It does get sort of hilarious when they don't put thought into making them consistent, so you end up with a supposed 6-6 guy towering over the '7 foot' Kane.

I think that's what was best about Gene - guys would ad-lib or improvise and he would just roll right along with it like it was all part of the original promo. Wrestling needs more of this kind of thing, people ask why I miss the old WWF days, and I just tell them "go home and Google a promo with Mean Gene and Macho Man"
