Never was a fan of Buff as a wrestler. He was never horrible at wrestling and certainly not the worst guy to ever pick up a microphone, but there was something about him that just never connected for me as a fan. I just never enjoyed anything Buff has ever done in his career, the most I was ever interested in him was a recent interview on Art of Wrestling with Colt Cabana. I honestly think it was the stupid rope tattoo on his arm that made me dislike him.Yeah, not seeing the Bagwell love. I mean, he was funny with his dumb hat and landing strip facial hair, but I can't recall a single match or interview of his that was particularly outstanding.
He seems like a decent enough dude and like I said above he is an interesting interview as well. Just something about him as a wrestler never clicked with me and I couldn't tell you any of his feuds that were particularly memorable either. He will sadly best be known for the infamous Judy Bagwell on a forklift match, which only proved that Buff is a mama's boy till the end.Buff was friendly to me when I spoke to him after that Thunder taping despite the fact that he was literally moments away from being arrested for hitting a backstage worker in the neck. That counts for something in my book.
The match wasn't bad, but Buff was never a big enough player in WCW to be in such a high profile match on Raw against the last WCW World Heavyweight Champion. That was really the biggest issue with the whole invasion angle, aside from Booker T no other major WCW name came along due to those absurd guaranteed contracts they had with Turner. If Vince wasn't so against the idea of promoting something he didn't create, WCW could have been a great stepping stone for younger talents a way to help get guys over. The idea of having two entirely seperate and established promotions competing against each other would have been amazing. WWE wasn't able to shop WCW to other networks, but they could have easily had Nitro or a new show on a different night and feature a different roster, but allow for cross over between the two brands on the weekly shows and then have joint promotional PPVs. Sadly what we got was a slightly better logo and a terrible blow off to what could have been something that went on for years.I liked him when he was teaming up with 2 Cold Scorpio. Didn't click with me during American Males. I wouldn't say I was a fan, but his heel work seemed fine.
I too didn't think that Raw match was all bad. People wanted to see WWE wrestlers that night - not WCW. I will say the WCW logo they came up with during that invasion angle was better than that horrible logo with the giant C.
I enjoyed him with The Patriot as well. "Stars and Stripes" was a decent team for it's time.I liked him when he was teaming up with 2 Cold Scorpio. Didn't click with me during American Males. I wouldn't say I was a fan, but his heel work seemed fine.
And is that Daniel Bryan walking in the background @ 1.11?Did Buff say "Daniel Craig" instead of Daniel Bryan?
No problem man. I saw it over on Reddit and got a good chuckle from it, so I wanted to share it with people who maybe don't frequent there very often cause stuff can get buried fast over there. They also did one for Gillberg which is hilarious.That was awesome thanks for that.
http://www.wwe.com/shows/royalrumble/2015/royal-rumble-2015-matchesso the only matches tomorrow at the rumble is the womans tag and the rumble ?
The Juicer got all the way to WCW - where he was never booked again when they found out the guy with the kid-hugging gimmick interacting with kids had statutory rape charges against him.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oWYJ_PLrRK8
"The Juicer". F'n strange gimmick. It was supposed to be a Beetlejuice gimmick, apparently.
John Cena should steal his entrance.
wow they must going to drag out the rumble for 90 mins or more this year. Wonder how many old people be back, i dont even think they have 30 main people on the roaster. Friend still thinks taker is coming back LOL
Yeah I remembered the Gillberg spoof which was funny at that time. I remember watching Goldberg during the WCW days. He had some ridiculous streak at like near 200 or something. They must have counted house shows because everytime he was on Nitro I was confused as to how they kept track of the all his wins. I thought his gimmick was cool early on. It was pretty disappointing though to hear about all those reports that the "Goldberg" chants were actually being artificially piped into the arena.No problem man. I saw it over on Reddit and got a good chuckle from it, so I wanted to share it with people who maybe don't frequent there very often cause stuff can get buried fast over there.

This is what everyone expects to happen, but things could change. I for one hope that they do because I don't want to Reigns go over in the main event of Wrestlemania. He just isn't ready and will flounder if they force the push with a Rumble win tonight. Daniel Bryan should win the Rumble and go on to Mania because that is what's best for business.Alright you jobbers. Tonight Reigns wins the Rumble and goes to headline WrestleMania against Big Bad Brock. I can feel it, change is in the air!
betting on cena winning but rollins cashing in aftwards and winning bbelt maybe even with paul haymens helpI want Ambrose to win so he can face Rollins and have a match with a clear winner and no interference once and for all. I agree with the crowd against Reigns winning; he's not ready.
That being said, I'm pretty good as long as there are no Cena wins.
still like the idea of undertaker coming back winning the rumble and take/brock 2 at wm to get revenge for that lost last year.The Rock is going to take the Rumble. Brock is going to retain. Brock/Rock 2 at Wrestlemania.
I'm predicting that Ziggler will win the Rumble, beat Brock at Wrestlemania, but Rollins cashes in and walks out of Wrestlemania WWE WHC Champion.Alright you jobbers. Tonight Reigns wins the Rumble and goes to headline WrestleMania against Big Bad Brock. I can feel it, change is in the air!
