Awards Moderator HarmonicGenerator Posted January 25, 2013 Awards Moderator Posted January 25, 2013 I had to chuckle at the caption, it's the kind of thing i'd expect to see on a Youtube comment. Is Lanny wearing a suit of armour there? What's the story/gimmick behind that? I don't know, but if his catchphrase wasn't something about "getting medievel on your ass" they missed a trick. edit - the jousting thingy is called a lance, right? It is called a lance, yes! I did a load of research on armour for work last month, but the idea of a wrestler with a knight gimmick or outfit never crossed my mind. There's a lot of potential in the idea if Lanny didn't go all the way with it.

Here's a great clip of it: When he got to the WWF he wore it for his poems on Saturday Nights Main Events. He then wore the suit in a load of battle royal for comedy value.

Was just about to post the same thing. There's a WWF Bunkhouse Battle Royal from the Boston Garden where Lanny wore the Knight Suit, helmet included. King Kong Bundy also takes part in that match wearing a bowling shirt.

Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted January 25, 2013 Paid Members Posted January 25, 2013 I was half expecting Neidhart to be wearing his Tap Out t-shirt in the Battle Royal.

Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted January 26, 2013 Paid Members Posted January 26, 2013 Yes. That is an outfit:
Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted January 26, 2013 Paid Members Posted January 26, 2013 Awesome. Flair looks like an old gentlemen there. When he isn't pissing blood out of his forehead, he looks to have aged gracefully.
cobystag Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 Flair also didn't wrestle today for AJPW due to Dr's orders and his son wrestled in the semi-main event in his place.
