frog’s signature taunt of launching himself directly onto his taint apropos of nothing presages darby allen

It makes me think about those stories about how Hulk Hogan regrets using the leg drop as his finisher because it hosed up his back and hips over the years. Hope Frog lives a life free of significant pain.

Eddie Guerrero and Rob Van Dam had to humbly ask permission to use the Five Star Frog Splash, which of course got Six Stars when Frog did it in the Tokyo Dome.

It's a good thing Russo never got his hands on Frog. He'd put him in some convoluted angle where he'd have a son named Tad, and another wrestler (with a salamander gimmick) would challenge Frog for custody of Tad.

The feud would culminate on a Tad on a Pole match.

the explanation they were given by Turner about how you have to use Robocop somehow but he can’t do anything physical because the suit is stiff metal and weighs 50 pounds, good luck

The Robocop suit was fragile enough that the best they could do was hobble down the entrance ramp, break a gimmicked cage and hobble back up before the whole thing fell apart.

In other words, this promotional crossover was a bad idea.
