WRONG! rhodes was with wwf first as were the steiners and pillman and by the way nwa didnt become wcw dumbass it merged with ecw in its dying days

First, you be nice😛


you are both wrong


Rhodes started wrestling in 1974 in the AWA . He was a tag team partner with Dick Murdoch


The steiners did become major players in WCW way before they ever went to the WWF

 

[FlockOfSeagulls]

your comments on the situation with benoit are obviously due to ignorance of the situation .. what u r saying has no relevance he didnt hurt himself in the wwe or even wcw the damage was done when he was young working ecw, jpw, and the indies and was made worse by constant painkiller,alcohol,and steroid abuse, i understand tht u obviously dont know what ur talking about and u obviously dont like what vince has done with the company ,, but then again if u dont watch it u dont belong posting in this thread, but anyone ur dislike of the wwe doesnt make them resoinsible for benoit and im sure u will argue but im not arguing back becasue u have proved u dont know enough to argue with me and im sure vince is just fine with the product the way it is today as are the millions of fans that watch it

I knew was there a reason why I thought you were pretty cool

by the way WCW was a part of the NWA. Jim crockett promotions was a regional part of the Nwa territoties. It actually became the number 1 territory and in 1986 Ted turner bought Jim crockett promotions and renamed it WCW . But it still fell under the NWA as far as the governing bodies concerned

but nwa was still around after wcw and it merged with ecw in its dying days and it was done when paul heyman told the franchise to spit on and throw out the belt ... after that nwa became eastern championship which obviously became extreme championship

One of the minor nwa territories merged briefly with ECW. TNA was part of NWA for a while when it started up

I know far more then you are willing to admit I know. Even if you take my personal views out of it, The only way to get McMahon to chainge the derection the product is going is to hit him in the wallet, other wise he thinks you must like it, and he will continue down that path becuase it is making him money.

However lets say you are right and I don't know shit. Where exactly am I wrong (other then spelling) in my previouse post.

btw good luck "hitting vinces wallet" he is a multi billionare and wouldnt notice if hundreds of thousands of fans quit watching..the product is fine outside of a few things. but i love how people act like it used to be perfect it has never been perfect not even in the attitude era.. but the great thing about back then is you only remeber the good.. vince can put out a shell of a show if he so chooses he has no competion.. tna doesnt know their ass from a whole in the ground and their "talent" is manily garbage wrestlers wwe didnt see as useful anymore or talent wwe would never hire... examples of the talent wwe threw away (nash,christian (although hes back), rhyno,dudleys,jarrett,angle,booker t among others

I love pro wrestling, I just hate the way the indastry is, and has been run. Until things are different I will not support it, because I don't agree with the way managment treats it's workers like high priced cattle. One dies, well we'll spike our tv raitings with a tribute show, and then bring in another side of beef from the field. Not my personal view of them, but it's how management sees them, and it is a bad policy too. You build a guy up to a superstar only to have him die from a heart attack because he is using pain killers just so he can go out to the ring an agravait an enjury so he will need to take even more pain killers? But you keep watch, so the raiting are still there, so the advertisers are still there, so the profit is still there so Vince just doesn't give a shit.

Look at the Benoit situation. He lost his mind becuase of brain damage he suffered in the ring. Damage that could have been prevented if somebody in up stairs had said "Tell Chris to block those chair shots or he is suspended for 30 day without pay." Trust me, 30 days with out pay would have set him straight. Unfortunelty the bosses were to buisy watching his T-Shirt sell and not what he was doing in the ring. However if wrestling had a Union a shop stuart would have writen him up and warned him of a fine for unsafe work practesses. There is no "Health and Safty standard in wrestling, and until there is I won't suport it as an industry with money or time. I have nothing but respect for the performers even if I don't like their politicts and even if they are over raited IMO, simply because they have the guts to go out their and perform for their fans.

You seem to forget that these wrestlers are grown men. They don't have to do anything they don't want to do. Plus, many of them wrestled for years before making it big. It's not fair to place the entire blame on the company who happened to employ someone at the time of their death.

Chris Benoit spent years performing the headbutt. That likely played a bigger role than anything with any brain damage. It's too careless to say that your simple suggestions would have really made a difference. Who was going to tell Chris to protect himself when he was wrestling on the indy-scene? Those promotions were doing whatever they could to put on a great show. WWE is very conservative compared to the independent scene. And you can look at someone like Mick Foley, who donated his body to wrestling for 15+ years, and see that simply blocking chair shots wouldn't be enough. If anyone should have brain damage, it should be Foley. WWE has implemented many tests to ensure they will catch any abnormalities.

As far as the money is concerned, this isn't '98 anymore. Vince has money flowing in from many different sources. Merchandise and their video game would keep Vince from going broke anytime soon.

You have no idea what you are talking about. There fore I will simply ignore you from now on.

 

[natural tickler]

First, lemme correct some obvious mistakes

punkrockergirl:

dusty Rhodes started in the AWA with Dick Murdoch to form the Texas Outlaws, then seesawed back and forth between WWWF and NWA battling for the World title

the Steiner brothers were NWA World Tag Team Champions in 1989-1991 before coming to the WWF in 92

and now to answer the question

the greatest stable ever was the 1988 version of the Four Horsemen, with Flair, Windham, Blanchard, and Anderson, they had all the gold

They are grown men who are desprit to make it in their indastry. It is a proven fact that these guy will pretty much kill themselves to get to the top. Look at the interviews, Vince doesn't say "Take steroids" with words, but when you see who he gives the push too he is pretty much doing it with actions.

Chris Benoit spent years performing the headbutt. That likely played a bigger role than anything with any brain damage. It's too careless to say that your simple suggestions would have really made a difference. Who was going to tell Chris to protect himself when he was wrestling on the indy-scene?

-Why did WWE suddenly get rid of Chair head shots then?

-When did inforcing safty standards become careless?
-Chris wasn't wrestling on the indie scene was her? The whole industry needs to be chainged, unionized, and permanent safty standards of some sort put in place.
-So lets all be ignorant and ignore the problem so all our favorites can keep dying. You are one selfish SOB, but that has been my point from the start.

-Yes lets look at Mick, and think about what a difference an indapendent comition could have made for him. Gee he might even be able to move with out pain once an a while.

- Oh yeah, and in the 90's they had a roid policy, and when it started causing him grief he dumped it. Do you really think it will be any different with this BS wellness policy. Look at Trip and Big Dave (ROIDS!) and tell me they aren't taking things that go against the wellness pollisy, yet Harry (was it Harry) Smith got suspended.

As far as the money is concerned, this isn't '98 anymore. Vince has money flowing in from many different sources. Merchandise and their video game would keep Vince from going broke anytime soon.[/QUOTE]

And your point is what. Vince has lots of money, true, and he is making lots of money, true. However he wants more money. And the moment he isn't making money he will chainge the products direction. You and others simply don't have the integrity to make the effort.

Don't forget their is a recession upon us, and people will have more important things to spend money on then wrestling. Everybuck that greedy bastard can grab will matter too him for the next couple of years.

I love the Hart Foundation in any incarnation, but I have to give credit where it is due. The were the first, and the best. 4HM

... I wasn't expecting that from you at all.
But of course you're right. The Horsemen are unbeatable.

The Fabulous Freebirds!!! Their feud with the Road Warriors was the best tag team feud ever! The Freebirds eventually were the reason the Legion of Doom lost the AWA Tag Belts to Gorgeous Jimmy Garvin and "Mr. Electricity" Steve Regal in a huge upset as they attacked the Warriors during the match. Saw the big showdown match on DVD when the the 'Birds and LOD finally met but didn't like the outcome of the match. The Freebirds won the AWA tag team titles from the The Road Warriors but later the decision was reversed next broadcast as Buddy Roberts interfered in the match. 😕

You got it half right. Best feud was actually Freebirds vs. Von Erichs. That was by far the most famous feud in the eighties, especially for six-man tag matches

That being said the Freakin Road Warriors are by far the measuring stick for all other tag-teams. I actually enjoyed the feud between them and the Fabulous Ones and also the feud with The warlord and the Barbarian the best

 

[Fangz]

Remember the feud between the Road Warriors and Theodore Long's Skyscrapers who were Dangerous Danny Spivey and Psycho Sid Vicious? That was a great feud because it was the first time the LOD met a team who was bigger and stronger than them... however they they still kicked the Skyscrapers collective asses!! BTW, Sid Vicious would eventually be replaced by Mean Mark Callous who became a legend in the WWE as The Undertaker (that's an easy one!! 😉 ). The Road Warriors were so awesome till the hit WWE and didn't even use the name Road Warriors. They were simply the Legion Of Doom and had a ventriloquist dummy as their manager I believe...only Vince could come up with some of these ideas!! 🙄

You know, while not my favorite all-time stable, these guys had one of the coolest entrances ever. But you know, it occurs to me that I don't believe I have a favorite. Too many memorable ones to choose from.

im aware but i was arguing that they were in wwf before wcw i realize they didnt start out in wwf hardly anyone does

 

[Tantrum]

Easy: The nWo. Not only because it included a lot of my favorite guys (including Japanese wrestlers), but their style reminded me of one of my favorite movies: The Warriors.
