Thinking about it, if this were 2005 there would be at least 5 dummies on here screaming up and down that Rob Conway should be WWE Champion.

Roidbags were much more common in 2005 so they don't stand out like Jinder does nowadays.

Correct. Remember when Beefcake came back as the disciple? Dude was yolked up, everyone was!

BUT JUST LOOK AT HIM!

 

[Sibersk Esto]

Random thought: Why the hell is the WWF/E IC belt faceplate so popular? I swear I must've seen 10+ championships throughout wrestling history with its exact design.

 

[Professor Beef]

Who the fuck is Rob Conway?

Dave actually mentioned that last night:



Right now Cole has nothing signed with anyone anywhere. He's looking at everything, even TNA's making a play for him, but unless something changes both he and WWE want him there as soon as he's able, and he's keeping himself free until then, while people like O'Reilly didn't want to wait and lose money by just sitting home and waiting it out.

I don't know the style Cole uses, but he should take this opportunity to just rest and heal up.

I remember when that mother fucker stole Disco's Chartbuster.

yeah there's 5 dummies on here screaming up and down Sami Zayn should be WWE champion. I get your point.

 

[Sephzilla]

I'd take Sami Zayn as WWE Champion over Jinder Mahal.

 

[sf2fanatic]

Omega sucks..

Spoiler

In Street Fighter. I'll bury him

 

[Bluekaveli]

Maybe it's because everyone is so small now but damn, I don't remember him being this big.

 

[Data West]

also rob conway was an internet darling in OVW just like Sami Zayn

just look at him

 

[Sweeney Tom]

Maybe it's because everyone is so small now but damn, I don't remember him being this big.

It was the mid 2000s, everyone was that big basically. The only way you really stood out was if you were Dean Ambrose vs-HHH levels scrawny, or Scott Steiner any-year jacked.

He was. Especially in TNA

 

[slightconfuse]

Rob Conway was the nwa champ.

Remember is njpw Run

On criticism over the change in his physique: “I don’t know what kind of criticism that was. I worked hard in the gym a lot. All the WWE talents are drug tested by a third-party agency and I have been tested multiple times and never had an issue, so you know my transformation is all diet, all hard work. I am a tested athlete like every other WWE wrestler. I have no special privilege; nothing like that. I look like an athlete, I perform like an athlete, I carry myself like an athlete and WWE was not hesitant to put me in a WWE title match.”

Mmmhmmm.

Early 2016 Dean Ambrose was a twig when up against HHH.

Edit: Someone needs to just straight up ask Jinder about the backacne.

Mmmhmmm.

Better quote is him expecting his rise this year. Sounds like some insider trading lads.

 

[Zach]

I agree that The Disciple should've had a run on top, brother.

Does anyone straight up ask Triple H about his big ass nose or Kevin Owens about his armpit flab?

 

[Professor Beef]

He looks familiar, at least in the face. Was he in some french tag-team as a USA defector or something?nThat's all I can remember. I also remember him being as plain as a bread sandwich.

 

[Sweeney Tom]

Steiner straight up said he'd take a drug test in WWE as soon as HHH took one

Natural

He was. Especially in TNA

I didn't even know he went to tna

 

[XenoRaven]

I feel like Cena's head got bigger

Ruthless aggression era was roidmonkey central. The most obvious juice bar since Hogan's golden age.

 

[Jamie OD]

Thinking about it, if this were 2005 there would be at least 5 dummies on here screaming up and down that Rob Conway should be WWE Champion.

That did happen. One of the regular writers for Power Slam magazine in the UK thought he would become a breakout star. I think he just had that opinion because he liked his theme song.

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

if those things look like they came from substances they were taking they should

 

[Data West]

sell me on going to work tonight

Well how else were they supposed to be aggressive!

 

[Hex]

Clearly we need a GWF Survivor Series match up between the Sawft Gs and the Hardbody Gs.

Bonafide Gs need not apply.

But I like Popeye's Chicken and it's Bonafide

 

[TarpitCarnivore]

What a 450

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

sell me on going to work tonight

Money.

 

[Hex]

Spoiler

Gunner

is absolutely a TNA reject. He's pretty bland and generic.

Spoiler

Crazy Steve

is actually pretty good though. He's got a good gimmick and can go pretty well in the ring. I know TNA wanted to keep him, but WWE came calling for him.

Yeah I was going to say Crazy Steve can do work.

 

[Hex]

What a 450

RIP Hayabusa, one of the greats.

 

[Slizz]

Money.

To afford this

 

[XenoRaven]

sell me on going to work tonight

Jinder put in work and he's WWE Champion. Do you want to be a champion or do you want to be a nerd like Sami Zayn?

 

[TarpitCarnivore]

RIP Hayabusa, one of the greats.

I remember hearing so much about this tag match back in 99ish and wanting to see it so bad. I eventually got around to it but can't remember for the life of me if it lived up the hype. I just was desperate to see Japanese wrestlers back then as I learned Hayabusa and the crazy fucks in FMW

 

[klonere]

uh

 

[Beefy]

If I win tomorrow on GWF, Hogan pics/gifs are banned for a week.

Same here.
When Chono and other hit WCW it was huge to me, and every time Muta showed up was a big event for me.
Taka got so misused in WWF. Started as junior heavyweight champ and then turned into a comedy character

 

[SomewhatGroovy]

Who are you fighting?!

Hot damn, now that's some motivation.

Bollocks, just noticed that GWF is the same time as that ARMS test. Will have to have it on in the background or something.

I don't know why Vince didn't protect Roman from failing whatever he failed.

Myself

 

[Professor Beef]

Wasn't it ADD medication that got him busted? Or am I remembering that incorrectly?
