I preferred the PS1 wrestling games to the N64 ones because the N64 ones were all about reversal timing and I couldn't do it so I'd get really mad.

I liked doing a fireball motion to do a suplex or whatever. That was cool, Acclaim. (The PS1 THQ games didn't seem awful at the time, though.)

All I wanted out of a wrestling game is to make myself and live out my dream of being a pro wrestler.

I still have a soft spot for WrestleMania: The Arcade Game. I mean, come on, you can hit people with tombstones and giant hammers, and Yokozuna bleeds ham hocks when you smack him around.

Yes, Alex Wright, I know that you are German. Scott Norton is the only one who seems to be genuinely on my side here.

Scott Norton seemed like the real life version of those giant wrestlers who'd appear in the Dragon Ball Budokai tournaments.

I don't even understand why it's called a waffle iron. Wouldn't that flatten out all the little squares?

i like to let the bacon rest on my pancakes instead of syrup. but that's mostly because I steal breakfast from the breakroom in a nearby business. Have to be very quick, you see.

DeathChicken posted:He was in the WCW Thunder videogame, as the guy who yelled "REEEEEEEEESE!" as his only voiced line Back when Revenge was out, me and my friend played it religiously and it was what drew us into watching WCW to begin with. By the time we were playing the game, the actual Flock was broken up and Reese was phased out, so we knew pretty much nothing about him. I still played as him because there was a fun novelty to the mysterious, mohawked grunge giant. One day, we're watching some MTV show that was a documentary about the ordinary day for a VJ. There's a part where a tired Jesse Camp or Carson Daly was picking up fan mail and mentioned, "Tyrese gets all the mail." My friend immediately perked up and went, "Reese gets all the mail?!" From that day on, we'd constantly bring that up while playing Revenge. Reese was tall, knew Raven and was constantly overwhelmed with post office deliveries. That's all we knew. And it was enough. That is my Reese story.

https://wwfoldschool.com/wcw-all-nighter/ Here's the match listing for todays from the vault drop. I remember taping this as a kid, make sure you watch this show because it's so loving good. It's Schavonie, Bobby, Dusty, Zybzcko, Mean Gene and Gordon Solie in a hotel room at what appears to be a childrens wcw themed birthday party watching a top 10 clash of the champions countdown. It's 6 hours, which is the exact time of a home vhs tape. I gotta say with tape trading taking off in the early 90's this was a genius way to promote wcw. And they were smart with the match selection, 8 Flair matches, 2 Hogan matches. It's legitimately a selection of 12 great or cool matches and not about promoting Hogan and his buddies. A lot of these matches have guys that I believe were retired or gone from WCW. This was absolutely made for smarks at the time and the way Ted Turner loved wrestling it was probably pretty easy to convince the TBS programmers to give up a 6 hour chunk 12:05-6:05 on a saturday or sunday morning instead of showing a couple movies and little rascals reruns. Turns out both Hogan matches were bonus matches, but pretty cool that they they were both recent ppv matches, his debut cage match against flair and War Games vs the Dungeon of Doom.

The American Dream posted:https://wwfoldschool.com/wcw-all-nighter/ There were at least two All-Nighters. The Clash special was the last of them and not the one that you've linked. There were some similar listings such as the 1988 Clash match with Flair and Sting, and the Magnum T.A. confrontation. I think the Mulkeys were on there, too. I have most of the Clash special kicking around on VHS tape somewhere.
