El Gallinero Gros posted:Parker is basically Foghorn Leghorn/Col. Tom (the guy who managed Elvis) as a wrestling character. 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.

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.

By all accounts Stan is a kind, somewhat soft-spoken family man. According to some stories he was the one who kept Bad News Allen from killing Andre when Andre kept making jokes with racial epithets on a bus in Japan.

Dr. Zoggle posted:his book is a decent read, you can tell he's not very comfortable breaking kayfabe so a lot of the little details missing - it does paint him as a nice guy who just went back to his hotel after matches and read books while the rest of the crew went out and drank In his first book Mick says Stan was the only reason he left his hotel room because otherwise that's what Mick would have done.

Seams posted:I watched a short doco about Dennis Rodman on YouTube last night and it had the hulkster claiming that Phil Jackson was personally calling him over and over trying to find out where Dennis was when he went to wrestle during the NBA finals. Hogan likes to cast himself as a solver of problems with other celebrities. He personally maintained peace on the A-team set between Mr. T and George Peppard, DUDE.

Angry_Ed posted:Actually yes that was it. He claimed he accidentally killed (or almost killed) Inoki during a 1983 match, Inoki was revived by CPR, and afterwards Hogan had to flee the Yakuza Love a good 'it was the yakuza' story. If the yakuza was as active as so many people claim it was, they wouldn't have to resort to stealing fruit these days.

He didn't have time between Metallica band practice and PRIDE prize fighting, jack I like that Hogan probably tells it like he was going to be the bassist instead of Cliff in Metallica but the timeframe means he would have been Ron McGovney.

Drakkel posted:But did he smell death? Given how Kerry passed, I'm glad Hogan didn't try that. The story doesn't work for a lot of reasons, of course, mostly that it was supposedly on a plane ride to Japan and Kerry was probably not allowed to leave the country right before he died because he'd broken probation on drug charges (and was looking at a lot of jail time, which no doubt added to his depression). Also Hogan didn't wrestle in Japan until much later that year which I believe is where we got that interview of him just absolutely burying the WWF belt.

For a certain stretch of '91/'92 you are spoiled for choice when it comes to good matches and the Dangerous Alliance is an all time heel stable, at least in part because it ends when it should.
