Paid Members Statto Posted April 10, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted April 10, 2017 Another random one this, but... for some reason, Alfred Hayes' voice forcibly saying "If you don't see it - ask for it!" has just popped into my head whilst sitting at my desk. I recall that it was a final statement from a trailer/advert for something in the early 90s, but does anyone remember what it was we were supposed to be asking the proprietor for? Logic suggests it was WWF Magazine, but might have been WWF home videos? Any link to the advert scores bonus points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember the full quote was "if you dont see it at your local video store - ask for it!" Like if HMV doesnt have it in, tell them to order it in. I do remember he said it during a commercial for SummerSlam 92 on VHS, just because the Best of British Bulldog video. It was the commercial where "London Bridge is falling down" was playing behind clips of Randy Savage elbow dropping people.

simonworden Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 I've never heard Hayes say that line but i'm sure I have a Summerslam 88 VHS where it's Ventura saying the same thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members eugenespeed Posted April 12, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted April 12, 2017 Coming from a conversation I had earlier today. Wrestlemania 33, Bray Wyatt vs Randy Orton. They "blue screened" maggots, roaches etc onto the ring canvas. We obviously saw it on television, but, could they see that in the arena? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Coconut Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 They were projected, not blue-screened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WyattSheepMask Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 I just wish I could un-see it. Easily one of the most ridiculous things I've ever seen in all the years I've watched Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The match was definitely the worst bit of the show for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clintthecrippler Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Yeah, we could tell live something was being projected onto the mat but did have to look up at the big screens to make out exactly what the images were. I personally loved the idea of the effects deal a lot, but was more pissed that they went through all that trouble to give Bray an "Undertaker" style production gimmick only to have him lose via RKO-123 like none of it mattered. It made going through that whole production gimmick a giant waste of time. I think the effect would have came off much better if they actually led to Wyatt having the psychological edge and winning.

dopper Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 (edited) Anyone know what CM Punk is up to at the moment? Since the UFC fight 7 months ago, is he still training every day and waiting for his next fight to be announced, or has he knocked it on the head? All I can find out from Twitter is that he's still a huge ice hockey fan. Edited April 15, 2017 by dopper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WyattSheepMask Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 I think him getting another fight depends on the relevant state athletic commission granting him a license to do so. He was supposed to have a minimum number of amateur fights before his debut (it was either 2 or 5, I forget which) before being granted a pro licence, but Dana must have slipped an envelope of cash under the table to get that first fight to actually happen. As much as I respect for seeing it through and having the fight, and as much as his presence did help the PPV buyrate to a certain degree, I'd be suprised if he ever competes in the UFC again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wordsfromlee Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 I'm pretty sure Dana White said after the Punk fight that he "probably won't" fight for UFC again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
