Paid Members Carbomb Posted January 7, 2016 Paid Members Posted January 7, 2016 Did Kane hold the tag belts after he beat Austin in the First Blood match then? It really doesn't feel like it, though - couldn't tell you why. What about Mark Henry? He took ages to finally get the big one - he must have had a tag reign during that period, surely?
The Clint Posted January 7, 2016 Posted January 7, 2016 (edited) Little fact I realised earlier; a few months back, there was discussion on here about Edge and Christian being the only two wrestlers to hold the tag titles before both going on to win world titles (in WWE, anyway). It's only just occurred to me that you can now add Reigns and Rollins to that list. If anything, Reigns and Rollins have a bigger claim to the achievement than E+C, as they've both won the big belt and Christian only ever won the Smackdown belt. Probably boring to most of you but I found it interesting! Shawn and Diesel also held the tag titles in 1994 before they were WWF Champions. They beat the Headshrinkers the night before SummerSlam.

Paid Members tiger_rick Posted January 7, 2016 Author Paid Members Posted January 7, 2016 It wasn't about holding the belts, it was about being a proper tag team. Reigns and Rollins wouldn't count for me.

He's talking about both members of the team going on to win the big one. Ah, fair enough - my mistake. Makes sense, really - in most tag-teams, it's usually only one out of the two who gets to the top, and the other reaches the upper midcard at best. I love Christian's work, and think he's a Jericho-type "main-eventer", but let's face it: in any hot or "up" period, he'd never have held the belt.
Moderators PowerButchi Posted January 8, 2016 Moderators Posted January 8, 2016 (edited) A fella in the pub tonight gave me 2 massive boxes of VHS from his old video shop. So, I had a fish through and included in that... AN ORIGINAL RENTAL COPY VERSION OF NO HOLDS BARRED. WITH THE MASSIVE WHITE BOX. I'll start the bidding off at a tenner.

Paid Members air_raid Posted January 8, 2016 Paid Members Posted January 8, 2016 Did Kane hold the tag belts after he beat Austin in the First Blood match then? It really doesn't feel like it, though - couldn't tell you why. Kane's held the tag straps 127 times since he won the WWF title a mere 7 months after his in-ring debut, yes. With Mankind, with X-Pac, with his brother, with The Hurricane, with RVD, with Big Show, with Daniel Bryan, with fucking everyone.
Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted January 8, 2016 Paid Members Posted January 8, 2016 (edited) Well, Fake Diesel did carry on the accomplishments of the previous Diesel, like MK Dons apparently winning the FA Cup in 1988. So I'm going to say Glen Jacobs had already won the triple crown prior to his debut in 1995. Edited January 8, 2016 by IANdrewDiceClay

Paid Members chokeout Posted January 8, 2016 Paid Members Posted January 8, 2016 I can't stop listening to Chas & Dave. I had it playing in the office while I was editing the video. They have now banned it
DeanoTheGame Posted January 8, 2016 Posted January 8, 2016 Is there currently a worse move in wrestling than Charlotte's spear? And is it only me that thinks shes fucking shit in all areas?
Paid Members FLips Posted January 8, 2016 Paid Members Posted January 8, 2016 Being on the main roster has completely exposed her, because now she's not with people who can carry her, or they don't have the time to.
Moderators PowerButchi Posted January 8, 2016 Moderators Posted January 8, 2016 She's a great athlete, b ut it just proves again that being athletic isn't as major as people often think in a wrestler's talent.

You'll get more than a tenner if it's the original rental version. "Grunt the Wrestling Movie" is a campy mess. I love it.. Edited January 8, 2016 by bAzTNM#1
The Gaffer Posted January 8, 2016 Posted January 8, 2016 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UE9RdTQUnWE&feature=youtu.be Saw this get posted on Reddit. It's the full WBF PPV from 1992. Maybe it was posted before I'm not sure but it's completely off the wall. Total dissertation into the mind of Vince McMahon. It gets more nuts as it goes along.
