Happy Birthday to Scott Steiner, age 53.

 

[Sephzilla]

I worry that when people say 'good look' they immediately think an adonis. A good look is a lot of things as long as it fits your character. I would say Yokozuna had a good look because he was massive. He was fat, but he was awe-inspiring. Owens rides the middle ground and that's what I usually mean by a bad look is when nothing about you stands out. Daniel Bryan is short but ripped, Scott Norton was only 6'3" in a land of giants, but he was built like a battle tank.

I'd agree. Yokuzuna, Vader, and Umaga were all people I'd say didn't have a good build but had a good look for their character.

A good look is when you look exactly like who you are supposed to look like. Like Sephziller said, a good build is different than a good look.

I guess I can see people saying Owens has a good look, because he doesn't have much character, you don't know what they're trying to do with him and it's hard to see where that smoove bellay fits in.

Owens does not have a good build, I will agree.

 

[Cagey]

Vader was built like an Army-grade brick shithouse and he's still that way.

 

[blackaroni]

Is a shithouse good or bad?

 

[Gonzalez]

Has there been a wrestler who had 100% look(without using tricks to hide flaws), charisma, and in-ring ability?

Positive

Has there been a wrestler who had 100% both look(without using tricks to hide flaws), charisma, and in-ring ability.

John Cena, honest to god.

He doesn't but he isn't negated by someone who does (have a good build) by default. That's the point I think. Who can drive a character to the stage? Who owns their look, build and attitude?

Bull Dempsey's look is right for his character, right now. I don't know what Owens is supposed to be because his look is at odds with what's supposed to be his character, but that's changing.

shithouse, built like a: good, means you're scary big.

shitheel: bad, means you're a shitty person.

shitarse: Origin BritWres. The worst garbage bag pleather fucks.

Yep.

Man, I would have loved to watch a Vader in his prime go against Brock.

Vader was a machine. So incredibly strong.

That's a dream match I never thought about until this moment and now I can't think of a dream match I'd rather see more.

Two men

 

[jmdajr]

Those two motherfuckers were intense.

 

[imBask]

Macho man wore a hat to hide his terrible balding spot, get out of here

 

[Gonzalez]

Two men

Both of them used lifts(Plus, Mach had a long period where he wore tops to hide his shrinking physique), so they're disqualified.

 

[Sephzilla]

What's wrong with balding wrestlers?

So does the bandana count against Hogan?

 

[imBask]

What's wrong with balding wrestlers?

well we're talking about perfect look, a balding spot that prominent can't be ignored

i'd go for The Rock instead. Good wrestler, super charismatic and good looking

 

[Sephzilla]

Wouldn't Angle be disqualified too? There was a reason he decided to go full bald, afterall.

 

[Fox318]

That was because he got off juice to have kids.

 

[jmdajr]

I never thought much of Hogan or Macho being bald. That's just how I saw them day 1.

But Sting's new look makes me cry.

 

[klonere]

Kevin Owens

is fat

 

[Gonzalez]

As long as you wrestle bald it's fine. HBK used ponytail tricks to cover his baldness during his matches. So he's not in the "Wrestled bald" class of wrestlers.

 

[¡HarlequinPanic!]

But Sting's new look makes me cry.

I echo all this.

I was born into a world where the two biggest names in wrassling were old dudes with hair strangely tailored around a bald crown. can't think of hulk or macho any other way...hrm.

I'm actually pretty surprised Sting didn't go for plugs during all that downtime.

 

[Sephzilla]

Balding doesn't seem to hurt wrestlers at all when you consider how many top stars had bald spots / receding hairlines.

-Hogan
-Macho
-Austin (it was pretty noticeable before he shaved it bald)
-Angle
-HBK

Cena also has a nice bald spot going that's masked because of his really short haircut.

I look forward to the future main event runs of Dean Ambrose and Baron Corbin.

 

[lovely ladies]

John Cena's going for that back to back to back. You can never check him.

lol you said future and Baron Corbin in the same sentence

 

[Spider from Mars]

Kevin Owens

The term "Kevin bod" was virtually absent from Wrasslegaf conversation until May 19, when a mark ass poster named Sandman (aka Kaladin or whatever the fuck) penned a post on the www.neogaf.com forum titled "I'm telling ya, KO is a different beast. They're treating this guy as something special, as he should be." His argument was counter-intuitive, suggesting that wrasslin fans were attracted to men whose physiques reflect "a nice balance between a beer gut and working out" than they are to hunks with washboard abs.

Big Show gave in.

I bet you The Rock is bald too but don't matter because his hair just..wouldn't look good.

edit: Did you see the Swerved episode where the kid made not of Curtis Axel balding?
Must suck when pops had great hair.

edit edit: I was surprised Kane still had hair!

really just a disgraceful thing to bring on May 19th, which is already known as Kane Day.

 

[spindashing]

Embrace the baldness when it comes, friends.

No cul-de-sac either. Bald is beautiful.

Rock's hairline was definitely going backwards around 2004.

I believe he kept it bald after this.

If I ever start balding (which doesnt look like it will happen given genetics) I want the Picard look

I'm just glad I have a wife and kid already. I think I would look ridiculous bald.

But yeah I ain't spending a dime trying to avoid it.

Horseshoe configuration is good and valid.

 

[Sephzilla]

Balding was straight up necessary for Arn's look

Vince man. That was pretty balsy of him to do this. I feel he'd be the type to be super anal about their hair.

I was upset he did that. Vince had a great head of hair

 

[jmdajr]

The man looked good. It's a fact.

It was bold. But he's always, always been first in line with a "anything I ask my talent to do, I'd be happy to do first"

 

[Sephzilla]

Also, I feel Cesaro looked better when he was rocking the Jason Statham look versus going full bald

 

[Gonzalez]

So true...

It's a requirement for all real, and fake Anderson's(Arn's a fake) to have that bald, and bearded look.

Karl is doing a fine job continuing that grand tradition.

[Heroman]

Bald is a great look for certain people . Like stone cold looks way better bald than with hair.

With Banshee ending after season 4, let's get that cast and the big motherfucker who plays The Mountain into the Performance Center ASAP.

 

[avengers23]

First they called Big Show fat, and I did not speak out—
Because he is the Big Show, and who gives a shit about the Big Show in this decade.
Then they called Charlotte ugly, and I did not speak out—
Because she shares half of Ric Flair's looks.
Then they called Chris Hero fat, and I did not speak out—
Because he was allegedly released from NXT because he was fat and he's working in the indies.
Then they called Kevin Owens—and there was no one left to speak for him.

 

[Sibersk Esto]

It's nuts Vince was able to grow all his hair back

Can we stop the fat shaming brahs? I miss the overly used "Carny" days already.
