Why do you guys love La Parka so much?

[Pudding Taine]

I was too young to enjoy the godliness that was he.:'(

[Nark Order]

He's the chairman!

[BigDaddyCool]

Don't know.

[St. Jimmy]

I'm going to need to see those old La Parka videos, please post them.

[St. Jimmy]

Also, the La Parka shuffle. :y:

:love:

[Theo Dious]

For crying out loud, the man is wearing something I saw legions of kids in on Halloween, and subsequently in discount bins at WalMart.

[Theo Dious]

AND, Batista outdances him.

[BigDaddyCool]

Yeah, I never got him.

[Nark Order]

[Theo Dious]

I hear he's TOTALLY over in some foriegn country nobody cares about.

[Theo Dious]

Yeah! That too!

[Lock Jaw]

Canada? :?:

[Nark Order]

My first guess too.

[SammyG]

He is the motherfucking chairman, that's why

[KYR]

Meh. I've never been into masked wrestlers, except Kane, but his persona was all about this huge, evil monster and the mask added to that character.

I never got into La Parka, probably because when he came on I'd switch the channel or whatever - maybe I should have a look at some old vids.

But masks for the sake of wearing a mask annoy me.

Psychosis' mask was terrible and each match of his truly tested my endurance.

Hey man, you wann talk about never getting into any masked wrestlers 'cept Kane? I have a fucking tattoo of his mask on my back, so if there's anyone on this goddamn board who is into Kane, it's me, with all due respect.

[FourFifty]

Oh, and LaParka sucks.

[Skippord]

Anyone who doesnt like La Parka is the hugest faggot of all time

La Parka isn't wearing a mask for the sake of wearing a mask. It's called a luchadore.

Skippord is my current favourite poster.

He was the chairman of the LWO for God's sake! Show some fucking respect.

[KYR]

Now that's what I mean.

How can anyone have a decent match wrestling Psychosis in that mask????

[Fox]

I dunno, ask the legions of WCW Cruiserweights who did it between 96-99.

[Lock Jaw]

Psychosis With Mask > Psychosis Without Mask

[KYR]

Was he that ugly?

[Crimson]

YES

[BlackDawn2024]

It should be against the law to not like LaParka. Punishable by a chair shot and being forced to watch unmasked Psychosis from his WWE run.

[94 SVT Cobra]

la parka was fucking great, he could ACTUALLY wrestle and use a chair as his mainstay weapon in general. Remeber in WCW/NWO revenge when he always came out with the chair? shit was GREAT

[Funky Fly]

Yeah, and sting always started with the bat. That game ruled.

[SammyG]

Anyone who doesnt like La Parka is the hugest faggot of all time

:yes:

[SammyG]

Well, um, this is certainly a bit different from his chair entrance...

[FearedSanctity]

That seriously has to be the greatest entrance I've ever seen

[SammyG]

I still can not believe this is real.

[.44 Magdalene]

I think that entrance just got my girlfriend pregnant.

[Johnny Vegas]

Skippord hit it on the head.

Remember when DDP dressed up as him and kicked Savage's ass. Ah, WCW memories...

[DaveBrawl]

Skippord for President. Well Vice President, La Parka for President.

And we love La Parka because he embodies everything that is America. Mom, Apple Pie and La Parka.

[Mercury Bullet]

La Parka = Ratings

[Theo Dious]

La Parka isn't wearing a mask for the sake of wearing a mask. It's called a luchadore.

Last I checked, a luchadore IS someone who wears a mask for the sake of wearing a mask.

[SammyG]

WHOA WTF, IS THAT "MICHAEL JACKSON" JUVENTUD GUERRERA?

[FourFifty]

Last I checked, a luchadore IS someone who wears a mask for the sake of wearing a mask.

All due respect DT, but I think you're wrong.
I wouldn't say The Hurricane, Kane, Mankind, Vader, The Midnight Rider, or Abyss is a luchadore. They're wrestlers.
I think being a Luchadore is deeper than just a mask. It's about your background and your style.
I'll go as far as saying Rey Mysterio isn't a luchadore anymore. According to lucha tradation if you lose your mask you cannot put it back on. That's what makes Masks vs Masks matches great. Someone is going to be forced to change. It's like being Jewish and wearing a santa hat. It just doesn't work out like that. Taking off the santa doesn't take away the fact that you had it on, albeit all these god damn marks and the sellouts in the office let is slide.

[Disturbed316]

La Parka was awesome, always fun to watch. Although I think this is my favourite La Parka moment in history:

[Funky Fly]

WCW in its heyday... :'(

[Tommy Gunn]

WCW was the goods before Arquette and Russo.

I always remember La Parka from when I used to play WCW Revenge on the Nintendo 64. If I remember correctly he had a chair at the start of the match, same with Sting bringing his bat to the ring. What a game...

[Skippord]

I think that entrance just got my girlfriend pregnant.
