I never thought I'd hear Hulk Hogan yelling about Color Dreams unlicensed classic Baby Boomer for NES. What a world we live in.

Alaois posted:haha yeah man, totally They did a promo with magnum where tully and JJ confront magnum because of interference in a different match. Barry comes out to get between magnum and tully so tully pops Barry, then pops magnum. when tully and jj act like they are moving to work over magnum, dusty comes tearing out, pushes tully and jj away, grabs a baseball bat magnum had during the promo, and starts laying into tully. during this David and Jimmy crockett and some other "commissioner" get hit and pushed away by dusty. dusty then chokesout tully with the bat before going to commercial. The sequence was pretty well down as a shocking brawl breaking out. I really wasn't expecting this to happen and it caught me by surprise.

But also the Hulkster was one of the greatest mahjong players of all time and he would have gone pro except he heard someone paid 3 little old ladies to break his fingers at his next game and he had to flee the country dude

Thirteen Orphans is a reference to all the children left fatherless after Hulk tore a path of destruction all the way through puroresu.

The NWA-WCW 04-02-88 taping has a Flair promo where he comes out and talks about pills then takes one on camera for "energy". Is this a new angle or were they really hocking pills? Edit: if you check out the episode I'm talking about also watch a bit longer for Arn Anderson's new hairdo  I guess babydoll was fired by this point too. That sucks. She was really starting to be comfortable and becoming a good heel. Mr Hootington fucked around with this message at 13:06 on Sep 5, 2023 |

He calls them performance enhancing vitamins that keep him up all night with energy.   He gives a bottle to David crockett at the end. If it is a new angle then I'm ready for drug abuse Flair.

It was just them yelling at the announcers and the crocketts about how loving stupid they are. The 1988 Crockett Cup is a god damned mess too. Lmao at Windham becoming a horseman in an untelevised match for the tag team belts 2 days before the event.

Ok so I watched Barry's heel turn and God drat it was a good turn and the followup of dusty as midnight rider charging into the heel dressing room to confront Barry only to get demasked, no shots of his face so no extended suspension, was pretty good. Kevin sullivan then comes out and talks about the reasons barry betrayed lex and how now the american dream is now broken was great too. The entire stadium was near silent for thr rotunda match that took place afterward. The heels are ascendant. Edit: lmao arn

Sitting on it, I think the only misstep with Barry's heel turn was it not happen during the Crockett cup final. That would have adequate everyone go crazy.
