AshC Posted August 13 Posted August 13 Well, I enjoyed the Luger vs Taylor match and other stuff on those comps that I never saw way back when, sorry if that's uncle-ising but it is just better. 😂 Quote

Chili Posted August 13 Posted August 13 I actually really liked that Luger/Taylor match too. Never seen it before, but I wouldn't state is as evidence everything was better back then, but then that's also not my gimmick. Quote
Paid Members Carbomb Posted August 13 Author Paid Members Posted August 13 Rick going around slapping the Uncle Lock on people. I do find I enjoy a lot more older wrestling, but that's mostly my fault, because I just haven't taken the time to watch much AEW or any other recent stuff. I will do one day. Back on topic, have chatted about this before on here with Butch, but I rather enjoyed his late era wCw Team Package corporate gimmick - was quite clever and detailed. Quote

Would that be him joining up with Flair and breaking the arms of like the entire roster so everyone was wearing a cast for a few weeks? Quote

d-d-d-dAz Posted August 13 Posted August 13 Wrestling, like a lot of long running entertainment stuff (Doctor Who fandom is a devil for it), has a lot of people who will swear blind a particular era is the best. It pretty much always corresponds to when they were a kid or when they first got into it. Quote

davertfnewman Posted August 13 Posted August 13 The Luger/Taylor match was good but I really liked the match at the end of the compilation with Regal regaining the TV title after interference from the Outsiders. Luger did as much for the belt as Shawn did for the European title so it was nice to get it back on to Regal to rehab his character. Quote
Members SuperBacon Posted August 13 Members Posted August 13 Luger was never a top guy for me as he always seemed really naff*, which is the best word I can use to describe him. Just very uncool most of the time. Having said that, watching back as an adult I really enjoy him, and I did pop big time when he won the title off Hogan. I think the OSW Lex Express arc helped a lot, seeing that yes people did love him at a time when he was just so ridiculous, it's well worth watching if you love Lex. *was he really naff, or was I just young? I DONT KNOOOOOOOOOOOW. Quote
AshC Posted August 13 Posted August 13 I must admit, seeing him on a magazine with the Uncle Sam hat on, having not seen the turn, was proper jarring after months of Narcissisus schtick. It's not even hinted at before the 4th July, is it? Quote
