Paid Members JNLister Posted August 1, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted August 1, 2018 They had a scoresheet in the program (or maybe WWF magazine) that implied it was randomish as it was "survivors from teams listed on the left vs survivors from teams listed on the right."

When I watch it now, I can't believe they didn't put Martel on the face team under the pretence of a random draw (as in the Wildcard match in 95) as he walked out anyway. If they'd had Tito out first and then had Martel walk out on Hogan and Warrior, it would have garnered tremendous heat. I'll always remember this line from the Warrior, talking about the strength of the babyface side. "The powers that we possess in Hulkamania and Warrior Wildness and Arrivederci!" Arrivederci?! Warrior gives such little shit about Tito, he thinks his catchphrase is "Arrivederci." Warrior Jim has obviously been reading his Derrick Trotter Book of Language.

I always thought he said Arribaderci, because of Tito's Arriba catchphrase, confusing him for an Italian probably makes fore sense being a loon and all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Hey Power and Glory and Warlord, thanks for teaming with me earlier in the night to be the first total team that survived, I'm gonna switch sides now, bye!"

Cheers John, I've never known that. Odd that they never threw out an explanation for the thousands watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair point, they wouldn't pretend to hold a random draw back then. Everyone remembers the competitors in the first three Royal Rumbles came out in alphabetical order.

WyattSheepMask Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Watching some old OSW Reviw and they’re talking about Low Ki’s run on NXT, which then reminded me about him trying to kick Ziggler’s head off at at Survivor Series that year, and I honestly don’t think I can watch it enough  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted August 5, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted August 5, 2018 (edited) @ColinBollocksTriple H is the same age as Sgt Slaughter was when he wrestled him at DX In Your House. I guess Sarge didnt want it bad enough. Edited August 5, 2018 by IANdrewDiceClay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members tiger_rick Posted August 6, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted August 6, 2018 There was a piece on Transworld Sport last night (I didn't know they still made it either) about a female wrestler in Bolivia. She was a woman called martha who is apparently a big star in her local territory. They interviewed her in front of a big poster of Rey Mysterio. They showed some action with her battering a heel, a real little old woman. Fuck me, she was stiff. They both laid in unprotected chair shots to the head too. Chris Nowinski hasn't been up to La Paz recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
