Once upon a time, the Insane Clown Posse wrestled in WCW

and it was magical :allears:

There was once a match that was like, ICP and Vampirio vs. Rey Mysterio, Eddie Guerrero, and Billy Kidman, which has to be the greatest disparity in talent between two tag teams ever.

Oozing machismo
I'm pretty sure that's the match where Billy Kidman managed to turn his SSP into a Shooting Star Kneedrop. He kneed the gently caress out of Vampiros face, broke his nose and knocked a few teeth loose.

So drat sloppy.

I believe he won a contest. They use him again on WCW Saturday Night or some other PPV. I remember part of me worried that he would be awful but he was actually good.

That's actually pretty cool that they put him out there and he did a solid job. I was just thrown off by him since I don't think that they mentioned that he won a contest so I was worried that some comedy was incoming at his expense.

A few years ago in the q/a thread we tried to find everyone who wrestled in all 5 modern US promotions and here's who we came up with:

Raven
Terry Funk
Konnan
Jerry Lynn
ICP
Chistopher Daniels
Dusty Rhodes
Justin Credible
2 Cold Scorpio

Shane Douglas counts if you consider a joint ROH/JAPW show an ROH appearance. Foley has appeared in all of them but never actually wrestled for ROH. Lance Storm's just missing TNA.

How far away is Vampiro from getting on this list, and what did he ever do to Vince McMahon?

I don't think he did anything to Vince McMahon, he just has a rep for being an rear end in a top hat and he's never really drawn in the US so why would Vince want him?

No this would be great, he'd have a gimmick where he'd swear constantly but they'd all be bleeped out or otherwise censored like in that Arthur the Aardvark parody of The Sopranos.

Eddie Guerrero also wrestled for WWA, which was sort of like TNA version 1. He got to win their cruiserweight belt at an event main evented by Jeff Jarrett vs Brian Christopher.

I thought it was a Target and also because Paul Heyman owes him $100,000. With interest that's at least $100,001 today!

Anyone have the video of him at a Raw the throwing his shirt off and starting a chant for his garbage ECW reunion show in 2012?

Whipwreck appeared as a jobber, I thought, in the WWF before he went to ECW. Or maybe on Velocity afterwards.

He was part of the ECW invasion of Raw, I'm pretty sure.

He had a single match in WWF while working for ECW in '97.

They had some weird cross promotion thing going where WWF was promoting Barely Legal or another show on Raw.
