Crying champions........

[The Answer]

I mean this literally. I kind of find it cool because some guys finally reach that pinnacle and their emotions just get the better of them. It immortalizes the moment. But anyway who have you seen cry after winning/losing a world title

From what I can recall:

After winning the title

Randy Orton after beating Benoit
I believe Shawn Micheals broke down after beating Bret Hart at Wrestlemaina

After losing the title

Hogan started crying after losing the belt to the Ultimate Warrior during Wrestlemania 6.

Any other one's?

[NoJabbaNoBogRoll]

Kurt Angle.

[Chavo Classic]

Big Show at Survivor Series 1999

[Dave Youell]

Benoit was when he won at Mania XX right?

[Pinnacle Charisma]

I think Bats shed a tear or two at WM21.


I believe when someone cries ala Kurt Angle and Orton I brings credibility to the title.

It shows they care about winning the title in a big way.


As opposed to Cena winning the title at WM 21 where he showed little emotion and when he did it looked forced is damaging to the legacy of the title

[Morrisey]

Jericho when he won the Undisputed Championship....I think!

Right, so unless your overflowing with emotion your damaging the credibility of a title? :wtf:

[Disturbed316]

Yeah, because winning a fake title is so emotional :roll:

nah j/k it's funny seeing it though.

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Did Eddie G? I can 't remember..

Shawn definately did when he won his first. If I recall, Tommy Dreamer did when he won the ECW world title.

so you say cena showed no emotion

i remember very clearly he even went into the crowd that night because he was celebrating

next time when you say something watch wm21 first

Angle winning at No Mercy 2000 and crying, to JR's disgust:)

[Jaton]

I liked his title win though. The way he bit the belt was priceless.

Too bad, everything after that has been so amazingly boring.

[Volare]

yeah, who else jumps up on the railing and falls onto a bunchof people trying ot grab the belt lmao (he got mobbed)

DDP?

[Favre4Ever]

Jericho winning the Undisputed Title and Angle beating the Rock at No Mercy 2000 are the first two to come to mind.

[Innovator]

Eddie was close I think, but didn't cry

First one that came into my mind was Benoit

[Innovator]

Oh and HBK at Wrestlemania XII

[Shadow]

Only ones that come to mine is HBK's first win and Angle winning the title the first time.

You know, I find myself wishing more and more harm upon you with every entry of yours that I read.

Shhhhhhhhhhhhh................. *KER-SMACK!*


And just so I can jump on the bandwagon...

......Kennedy.

[Rob]

Jericho cried when he beat The Rock for the WCW title.

[The One]

Michaels at Mania XII was priceless...but Benoit's at Mania XX made me cry.

Oh and Terry Funk crying at the end of Barley Legal when he won the ECW World Title for the second time...my god...I don't think I have ever been more emotional then I was that night...not only Funk winning (though he did go over Raven :() but the entire event just was so fucking packed with emotion.

[Loose Cannon]

Savage shed some tears at Mania 4 I believe. Wasn't a full blown cry though.

[Rob]

Michaels at Mania XII was priceless...but Benoit's at Mania XX made me cry.

I was holding them back for Benoit and Eddie Guerrero too. Was just very happy for the both of them and I still smile now when I watch the finishes to those matches.

[Aussie Skier]

Big Show at Survivor Series 1999

yeah, but thats cos it was a buildup of emotions, I mean, his dad had died and all remember...and then bossman made fun of it! :\'(

:p

[Aussie Skier]

you talking about cena or eddie...

[Chavo Classic]

:p

WRONG! The Bossman feud came after his win at Survivor Series. It was the build up to Armageddon 1999 match against Bossman in the semi-main event with HHH and Vince.

[The Show Off]

When Raven won the NWA World Title he didn't exactly cry but if you see the look on his face you can tell he was getting choked up. I espcially like the way Tenay and West hyped it up saying how this has been Raven's destiny for years.

I later read an article when Raven said it was the proudest moment of his career, probably because he grew up watching NWA.

I think the thing that is so amazing when a guy cries when he wins the title, it shows that this guy really cares, and has profound respect for the buisness.

[Innovator]

Raven cried backstage when he found out earlier in the day he was winning the belt
