Trollologist posted:Papa Shango was and is my favorite wrestler of all time. He made the ultimate warrior ooze a black goo and one time magically set a guy's hand on fire instead of, you know, wrestling him. I’m so glad they decided to retire that horribly racist witch doctor gimmick of his. So stereotypical and degrading. So what did he do after that?

wesleywillis posted:I'm sure its but he suddenly became very westernized and decided that he wanted to drown himself with trim. And also make that trim available to others. Finding a more racist gimmick was a proud moment for Creative I’m sure. What I had forgotten was them making Tony Atlas a loving Zulu and him being in the ‘91 Royal Rumble.

You can imagine how that would get to me. So please, starting 51 weeks from now PLEASE do not mention Sc*tt H*ll either the cat or the non-cat incarnation for a solid fortnight so we can protect each others cherished connection to Scotts alike on the anniversary of his likely passing. Is Rick Bognar okay?

Prof. Crocodile posted:is this guy a wrestler's wrestler? as in wrestlers like him even though normal people don't, and that's how he keeps getting work? because i remember him being presented as a big star back in the day, despite the fact that fans were visibly disheartened to see him come to the ring. Bad country music and hitting dudes with a guitar. Seen it done better by one Punk Rock Wayne Farris.

Iron Sheik packs his Persian clubs with C4, martyrs himself and takes out Vince and the Saudi Royals in the name of Shia. Vince appears on top of the Kaaba and does the McMahon strut. Greatest work ever.
