Man the promos being cut against JYD after he comes back in 1990 to face Flair at Clash 11 are very, very racist. Flair calling rocky king "boy" repeatedly to find out info relating to JYD. Windham saying JYD is only teaming with Sting, Lugar, and Mr wonderful because "he can't get help from his own kind." Just lots of stuff like that. There is also a big push right now for the Southern Boys and how various wrestlers are true southerners before they go against Doom.

I've only watched I think late 84-mid 1990. Like there has always been some racism, but I feel since Dusty's firing it keeps getting worse.

Mr Hootington posted:I don't know who colonel Parker or Harlem heat is. I've only watched I think late 84-mid 1990. Parker is basically Foghorn Leghorn/Col. Tom (the guy who managed Elvis) as a wrestling character. The original idea for Harlem Heat, a pair of real life black brothers, was for them to either be chain gang guys being lead to the ring by Parker who I guess would be their warden/gang boss, or straight up plantation guys with Parker as their owner. Making it worse, half the team actually did time for armed robbery and probably didn't want to be reminded of that time of his life. Supposedly it was Sid's idea as part of his deal, as he demanded booking input and got it? I'm not sure about that part, but I've seen it claimed a couple times.

Booker T's said that their chains were to imply that they've broken them - despite the chains not being broken because WCW wasn't going to waste good chain - and Booker is also one of the last people whose recollections you should trust.

The best thing about Frog might be that his final match was against “Seymour Snott” who is still using that gimmick in 2023

Mr Hootington posted:The 3 things I know about Big Van Vader All of these things are true. Eventually you, too, will be able to realize that Vader put on his tights inside out (because he thought that would help with the smell. It did not). He's one of Sting's greatest opponents but in a way that's not even special because Sting is a rare case of having had several greatest opponents.

16-bit Butt-Head posted:is that the one where mick punched vader's eye out and vader just popped it back into the socket and kept going Just remembered Hootington hasn't gotten to this yet so I'll spoiler tag it but they had a Texas Deathmatch at Halloween Havoc 93 that freaked the network out so bad they weren't allowed to wrestle each other again. It has a hosed finish unfortunately but it's still really cool all around. It's also infamously one of the major reasons Foley went to WWF, because he hated the commentary and how he felt that a slam dunk rivalry was ruined by comedy amnesia spots and other nonsense.

I can't help laughing everytime he cuts a promo or has a match. That big ol wad of tobacco and juice flying onto the mat or Jim Ross is so gross Did Stan Hanson steal Ron bass' gimmick or the other way around?
