It's a bit too late to make any more gifs (especially as there are about a million from Naito/Ishii I want to make) so if you want anything from the second half of the Osaka show, let me know and I'll get to them sometime in the next day or so.

Requesting that moment in Okada/Goto where Okada hits a move, and the camera pans over to Gedo grinning and clapping like a proud mother.

If people are still doing RAW gifs I feel two important ones have been missed.

Cesaro AAARRRGGGHHH'ing into the camera.

And Ambrose's reaction to Henry coming out.

Thanks to Wrasslor and Jerusalem already though for being awesome with gifs :)

Look at how calmly that guy accepts the sword from Okada, like it's perfectly natural. I love pro-wrestling.

















That's all, Jesus Christ I uploaded so much that imgur decided I was a robot and wouldn't let me upload anymore, and I had to switch to Tinypic. I guess this was a pretty good show :stare:

Seriously, Okada's dropkick is a loving work of art. He has to have just practiced that over and over until he could do it instinctively.

You know the one.

a Gif thread wouldn't feel right without having it in there for easy access whenever we really start hating JBL and can look back on happier times.

I think he's just selling well. This wasn't long into Austin using the move, so putting it over like death is a good idea.

Jesus Christ Mark Mero was terrible. I remember when he debuted and I was like 7 years old or whatever and everyone loved him except me and one of my friends. Even at that age I knew HHH, despite being the heel, was a way better wrestler and is the guy that people should have been cheering for, there.

He's also picking him up from an already-downed position, so he shouldn't be flopping around the way dudes take it now when he comes as more of a surprise.

Mero mediocrity aside: Early on Austin took a little more time to set up his stunner so it looked like it started from an actual headlock of some sort. It looked notably different a couple years later, when the signature kick-to-the-groin swung into the Stunner in one smooth - and very quick - motion.

also he held the head with both hands the entire way down when he was doing the stunner as the ringmaster/early SCSA`

the rock could sell finishers like no one else. my personal favorite was when hogan leg-dropped him and there may as well have been a mushroom cloud. it was the only time i ever remember that move looking impactful.

My favorite was when he'd take piledrivers, because he'd bounce about two feet into the air, apparently by sheer force of will.

One thing Bob Holly always did exceedingly well was a standing dropkick (they even tried it out as his finisher breifly), it's nice to see somebody with the same incredible form but with ability, drawing power and charisma.

RVD once bounced a good 3 feet in the air off of a Tommy Dreamer piledriver. It was glorious.

I remember seeing a shoot with Tommy Dreamer, and they asked him about that piledriver.

Tommy suggested it was because RVD hid springs in his hair or something.
