CTXRussomark Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 A quick Channel 4 "Gamesmaster" question, why would Buff Bagwell & The Patriot appear on it in 1994/95? Was there a WCW game out? Cheers. "Gamesmaster" Wiki WCW had a UK tour in September 94 built around Hogan so they were probably trying to get guys on as many shows as possible to promote it.

Captain Wolf Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Was Vader still in WCW at that point? If so wouldn've been good to see him play as a character ripped off him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FUM Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 Has WWE always put speakers in the ring during promos or is this a recent thing? For some reason, I've hardly noticed it until now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dart Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 It's not a new thing, but wouldn't know when they started it. I'd guess they've been doing it at least 10 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awards Moderator HarmonicGenerator Posted November 2, 2013 Awards Moderator Share Posted November 2, 2013 How did they do the Shane McMahon Titantron jumps at Summerslam 2000 and Backlash 2001? I've never been able to fathom how he wasn't seriously injured ... Even with padded ground involved, he fell backwards the first time, didn't he - what if he'd missed? And the second time, how did Big Show escape having someone fall on him from that height without getting hurt? Â It's been years since I watched either so there may be something obvious I'm missing, but both seemed like needlessly risky things to do.

They're just basic stunt falls at the end of the day. Ones which I'm sure they rehearsed a ridiculous amount of times to make sure everything was perfect. I'm sure if you watch the Big Show one back at the close up angle Shane doesn't even make contact with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members LaGoosh Posted November 3, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted November 3, 2013 He lands on a massive crash mat with a thin layer of balsa wood on top. It's a pretty safe bump really once you've been trained to fall professionally. The biggest risk is landing on Big Show by accident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Pitcos Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Vince's fall off the cage always seemed more dangerous to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members air_raid Posted November 3, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted November 3, 2013 Vince's fall off the cage always seemed more dangerous to me. Â Yeah. A pensionable-aged bloke throwing himself backwards onto a relatively small target where if it went even slightly wrong he could smack his head off a monitor or hit the table at the wrong angle and break his back or neck. I thought Mankind's backwards fall off the side of the Cell against Kane on Raw was a tough one too. Not seeing where you're falling? Pass.

Paid Members Tommy! Posted November 3, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted November 3, 2013 Vince's fall off the cage always seemed more dangerous to me. Â That makes me wince. It's that slight bounce he does before the table gives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted November 3, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted November 3, 2013 (edited) I thought Mankind's backwards fall off the side of the Cell against Kane on Raw was a tough one too. Foley missed everything on that one didn't he? I remember him saying that hurt worse than the one at the King of the Ring. Undertaker dragged him down, his arse broke the table and his head and back smashed off the conceit. Â EDIT: Actually not a bad one for the Kane's best match debate. Quite an exciting brawl that.

Paid Members LaGoosh Posted November 3, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted November 3, 2013 The Vince bump is fucking crazy, rather than crashing through the table he just cracks against the edge of it and it crumples under his weight. Mad bastard that Vince. Â And I remember Mick Foley saying the bump he took off the Cell against Kane actually fucked him up more longer term than the famous King Of The Ring table bump.

Paid Members wandshogun09 Posted November 3, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted November 3, 2013 (edited) Oh yeah that Vince table bump was brutal to watch. It looked like he didn't quite go back far enough and he caught the corner of the table with his back/hip. Could've been badly hurt there. Wasn't Vince supposed to have had a past neck injury as well, or have I dreamt that? Edited November 3, 2013 by wandshogun09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
