    Bruiser Brody




    Look: 10. Baddest looking m'fer in history, and the ability to convey danger like no other. When I was a kid, he terrified me. I knew wrestling was a work, but I wasn't so sure about Brody.

    Promo: 10. Didn't matter what he was saying, because with every bark snarl and word he was really saying "I am going to kill this man, then I am going to find you, W2BTD, and kill you."

    Work: 8. Possibly the best big man ever. His King Kong knee drop was so bad ass, nobody has bothered to copy it since. Set the standard for every brawler who ever came after him. His fights (not matches, fights) looked real, what more can you ask for?

    When that Led Zepplin hit, you knew danger was coming...

      Kevin Sullivan will eat your fucking heart bro.

      The only Sullivan match that overly sticks out in my head is the street fight vs Chris Benoit where they were fighting in the bathroom and shit. That match was awesome.

        Bashton Booger

        Look: 6/10 Sure he doesnt have a flattering physique, but does anyone fit his name better then Bashton Booger? The missing teeth were a nice touch.

        Mic Work: 1/10 Booger was unable to talk as he usually had some kind of food taking up the space in his mouth.

        Ring Work: 2/10 This monster was limited to a sit down splash, that if I was his opponent, would be a bump id be completely unwilling to risk my life taking in the ring.

        Total: 9/30

            If I told you Bastion Booger was at one time a tremendous heel who worked a evil muslim gimmick, would you believe me?

            His family said after he died that he hated the Booger gimmick and was never happy in the WWF, and it was a huge letdown for him when he finally got to the company after years of trying.

              I would because while researching him I read as much via Wiki.

                Owen showing the babyface fire!

                Look at Singh bumping all over the place for the little guy. That's a nice little clip you found there.

                  Yeah I found it interesting that the smaller baby face was working over the big guy for the majority of the match, the complete opposite of would you typically see in a match like that.


                  Youtube is FULL of these gems.. ive been realizing this more the last week or so.. there really isnt even a reason to watch WWE anymore.

                    Well, Owen was FIRED UP from being posted. Psychology, baby.

                      Speaking of which..


                      Owen Hart

                      Look: 7/10 Not the biggest guy but was built enough and was absolutely GOLD with facial expressions.

                      Mic Work: 7/10 Owen cut a very good promo IMO, not an elite guy but very solid. His I Am not a Nugget days were a good laugh.

                      Ring Work: 8/10 Very fluent in the ring and famous for a couple very good matches that hold up over time. Shame he couldnt have seen more.

                      Total: 22/30

                        Look: 10/10 Physical specimen, Jack LaLanne's idol, non-existent body fat, lean muscle.

                        Mic Work: 10/10 The most charismatic wrestler of all-time. Great crowd appeal. Witty.

                        Ring Work: 10/10 One of the finest professionals I have ever seen in a wrestling ring. Exceptional wrestling ability, and he's often confused for a high-flying Mexican Luchador.

                            I was at the Garden (pretty sure it was the Garden and not the Coliseum) when Brawler got a WWF title match against Shawn Michaels. lol

                              The Haiti Kid

                              Physical Appearance - 10/10, this little dude was a beast, all types of win going on here, I always pick the lion in the 'Lion vs 50 midgets' threads, but thats average midgets, if it was 50 Haiti Kids than those little fuckers would be having Lion burgers for weeks

                              Ability to Talk/Sell Yourself - 1/10, No idea, would only see him in special midget matches, no real build up, it was a treat

                              In-Ring Work - 11/10, he is a god damn midget, this little bastard could work, drop kicks, off the ropes and so on, my favorite parts of midget matches was when they would go for the pin and get pushed off onto the ref and the ref would thrown them back on, shit was classic

                              Also, since he was black he had very powerful headbutts which I'm always looking for plus the BUTT BUMP

                              Score - 22/30

                                Rick Rude
                                Ravishing

                                Physical Appearance / Look / Character - 9/10. Super physique and an elite mustache in the wrestling biz. He'd get a 10/10 if Jake Roberts didn't perfect the same exact mustache.
                                Ability to Talk/Sell Yourself - 8/10. "CUT THE MUSIC...What I'd like to have now...is for all you fat, out of shape, (enter place of origin and insult here), to keep the noise down and while I take my robe off and show the world what a real man is supposed to look like...HIT THE MUSIC!" See Exhibit A...he gets what I call "Bubba Dudley Heat"...the man could incite a riot and have guys outside the building waiting to whoop his ass legitimately after an event.
                                In-Ring Work - 5/10. He was passable. Better early, pretty bad late. Injuries were never friendly to him.

                                TOTAL - 22/30
