If they can do cool things let them do cool things. Anya never got pops though and got written off TV with Vampiro killing her to anger the KISS Demon

The crowd still pops for someone who lifts Big Show even though it's been done so many times.

Speaking of Big Show what happened this time? He had that couple weeks with the Bar and disappeared again.

exploded mummy posted:Anya never got pops though and got written off TV with Vampiro killing her to anger the KISS Demon I can't check right now but like I said, I remember her getting a reaction for suplexing Eddie even in front of the Mayhem crowd. Not a huge pop but it shows people appreciate the cool and unexpected, like a woman lifting up a man for several seconds. Asya and Dana are both really tiny so folks don't expect such feats from them. Apparently you have to be built like Chyna or Nia in order for people to recognize you can lift a few hundred pounds. Althogh anybody who saw Asya's thighs should realize she could kill dudes with them.  After seeing Asya I went and looked up Christi Wolf's bodybuilding career. Cool lady.

Has a crowd dumped on anybody for pointing at the Wrestlemania sign yet? As in someone they usually like eliciting boos specifically for the act of the point, not like Roman being Roman and getting booed for being Roman. It seems like the kind of thing that would've happened by now.

Is there no professional footage of Vader vs. Muta at the G1? All I've seen is that handicam from the crowd. They're like my two lifelong favorites and I've never got to see that match in any kind of quality.

Who was the best football player (in terms of actual football ability) to ever really become a star in wrestling? I think you'd have to give it to McMichael, though that's cutting it close for a "star." But Ernie Ladd also won an AFL championship with the Chargers.

What was the name of Super Muñeco's indie fed from the 80s with crazy ripoff masks and characters? It's the one that inspired Antonio Peña to come up with wild gimmicks, and I'm totally blanking on it

Like most southern/Memphis guys, he throws excellent worked punches, and sells well but his moveset's not terribly inspired.
