Wrestling Promo of the Day

Oh my God! It's the Karl Gotch of wrestling sections, step inside to catch all the latest on everything else from the defunct to Terry Funk, Dusty Rhodes to Rip Rogers, the Nature Boy to the Natural Born Thrillers to the National Treasure. Vince Russo says, bro, this is the place to be, bro.

I was picky about it a long time ago for a little while but I thought it was really cool then recording both shows at the same time so We didn't miss a second. Now it don't matter to Me if the show is taped or not as long as it's good plus I mean if you DVR it or do what I do on Peacock and now on The CW, I like watching the replay on My own time because when you watch it live and your not on time your right in the middle of it and I'm not a fan of especially when it doesn't allow you to rewind it. Oh that was a great Hogan promo, that was good how Hogan was creative with the face-paint, he was always good at stuff like that. His feud with Kamala was a decent and to think he fought him & dealt with The Wizard aka the Master in WCW during the super fun Dungeon of Doom days all over again :)

Here's the Gangstas in ECW in 1996 in this great promo that's outside during nocturnal hours. Notice when the late great New Jack says about The Samoan Gangstas. One day I'll get to them and hopefully I can find what's on My mind about them :)

New Jack was pretty crazy, But I heard his partner was even more nuts. Just came across this..

Oh yeah, Mustapha Saed was too, no doubt about that :shock: WOW, I never seen that one of Yokozuna before :batshock: :wwshock: :smgasp: I had posted about Kokina before but that was totally new :o WWE has been showing a lot of old stuff on their YT that we thought we'd never see. Remember when I showed you Mortis in WWE, that was part of their WWE Vault. That had to be a dark interview on Wrestling Challenge and had to be Afa's return because when I first saw him return on TV in 92 he was with his sons, Fatu & Samu The Headshrinkers when they debuted. Yoko was much smaller then despite he weighted about 450 pounds, compare that to that to his debut at 505 to his last days at over 700 pounds :shock: Really I'm glad that Kokina Maximus didn't work, Yokozuna has more personality to Me and wasn't a Samoan savage, just a great big monster heel plus all of those historic moments wouldn't have happen. Thanks for posting this Packer, this was great :)

Okay, from the last days of the USWA, here's the 6 foot 6, 400 pound Big Daddy Doom as a new persona so meet "The Macho Warrior" Ric Hogan :o :lol:

Yes it was. Ah, The Rock & Goldberg feud. Amazing how that was that Gillberg first happen when WCW still existed then when they didn't and Goldberg made it to the WWE and that was one of the only times we got to see that dream match.

Okay, since you posted Gillberg here's this match with The Undertaker in 92. He faces Gillberg when he was long time jobber Duane Gill :o



He returned in 2017 when Kevin Owens was the WWE Universal Champion :shock:



Gillberg returns to the WWE in 2021 at the Thunderdome :!:



Here's this great promo by Gill about what you just saw :)



Duane has a brother named Wayne, one day I'll see about posting him too :shock:

I never saw him before Gillberg, but whatever gets you over.

Well, nobody talked about Gill except when he lost every match, when he became Gillberg, then people really started talking about him. Oh, I recall that DX promo. My Grandpa loved that and couldn't stop laughing :)

So here's "Wildman" Marc Mero. His Johnny B. Badd days are over as he & Sable were one of the many newcomers to enter the WWF in 96 :)

Mero looked great but not the best mic work there.

Oh yes, Mero was very impressive. Ah, Alex Wright, that's when he turned heel and became a champion :!:

Okay, here's another newcomer in the WWF in 96. It was Too Cold Scorpio as Flash Funk :!: He was accompanied by professional dancers Nadine Ellis & Tracy Swain whom were fine looking women. As I said before, Brodus Clay and the Funkadactyls were a reboot of them and I liked the Funk & The Funkettes way more. Watch Vinnie Mac getting it on :shock:

I just couldn't get into him. The whole body suit never looked good on wrestlers IMO.
