I remember there being some wrestling game (probably one of the earlier smackdowns) where Scotty 2 Hotty's finishing move was just the dance part of the worm. His standing attack to a downed opponent was the chop and you had to do it by pressing the x button. So if you had a bunch of finishers lined up you could just keep hopping around and doing the worm like five times in a row without actually attacking while your opponent was forced to lie there like an idiot.

Cena is decent at actually freestyling but for some reason either him or the writers decided the best way to translate that to a wrestling crowd was to have him do lethargic dr. Seuss disses which were legit over for a while regardless

So it was late 90s WWE basically. I'd love to see RoH try to bring back the Christopher Street Connection in 2015

ColeM posted:Wasn't that in 2004 when Kidman botched his SSP on paul London and then wwe turned it into an angle and it made Kidman heel? That was actually Chavo who Kidman injured with the SSP, Juventud Guerrera was the one who landed on London's face with his knee while doing a 450. They did a worked angle where Kidman injured London with the SSP after the Chavo incident though I think.

DynamiteKidd posted:read a DDT Digest report on the Nitro that's gonna be shown tonight. You remember a few weeks back when Schiavone said a million times that WCW gives the fans what they want, WWF is taped and has a 10-second main event, blah blah (and then the main event of that Nitro ended in 25 seconds after an nWo run-in)? On the WWF hotline JR said of that something like "Tony's a friend, I was a little disappointed to hear about that but I know he was just saying what he was told to, I've done it before myself." If it was 2015 JR he would've made bitter old man remarks about it on Twitter for weeks

A reddit user has posted some concept art for a proposed WCW cartoon back in 1999. Someone tweeted Bischoff and he said he's never heard of it but the book mentions that it had been proposed around 1999 but got squashed in early 2000. This looks too 80s even for the 80s, let alone nearly 2000
