NAME THAT WRESTLER!

[NeanderCarl]

Billy Graham

Nope.

[thecc]

Terry Funk

[The Fugitive]

Terry Garvin?

[NeanderCarl]

No to all.

[ChiefStubbs]

Jerry Lawler.

[The Fugitive]

Lanny Poffo

[NeanderCarl]

Not Lawler, not Lanny.

[Destor]

Jake Roberts.

[The Fugitive]

Frank Gotch

[NeanderCarl]

Not Jake, not Gotch.

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Bob Armstrong

[NeanderCarl]

Nope.

[NeanderCarl]

1. Formed a tag team with a family member, but they never captured gold
2. Went undefeated for over a year in one national company
3. Wrestled in the 70s, 80s, 90s and 00s, but was inactive for much of the 90s.
4. Dead

[Destor]

Davey Boy Smith

[NeanderCarl]

No

[The Fugitive]

Reggie Lisowski?

[NeanderCarl]

Nope

[NeanderCarl]

I can't believe nobody's getting this one, it's like Sunday morning.... easy!

[Chuck Jones]

Curt Hennig?

[ChiefStubbs]

Original Sheik?

[ChiefStubbs]

Or Eddie Guerrero.

[Vastardikai]

Ric Rude?

[Crippla]

Nsh, Rude died in 99.

[What Would Kevin Do?]

N/m

[Jeritron]

It has to be Curt Henning

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Henning wrestled in the 90's. I was thinking Blassie, but I don't think he wrestled in 2000

[The Fugitive]

Impossible. Blassie wasn't an active wrestler in the 80s and onwards as he had retired in 1973 to become a manager and it states that he wrestled in the 70s, 80s, 90s and 00s.

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Meh. I'm just trying to think of an older wrestler who was around in 2000, and died sometime between then and now... No one is even coming to mind who hasn't been said.

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Moondog Spot...

[The Fugitive]

Hey, you're doing better than me. I'm stumped.

Moondog debuted in 1979 though, so I don't think it's him.

From what I've worked out, it's someone who debuted somewhere between 1960-1970 and continued to wrestle until his death in 200x. Now my maths is terrible at this hour but I'm guessing that he started wrestling when he was 18, so I'm going to put his age around his mid 60s to early 70s assuming that he died recently.

I'm going to take a stab in the dark and say it's Luke Graham.

[Destor]

Bob Orton

[Destor]

Damn I wish Neander Carl was on...

[ddpBANG]

The first guys I thought of were Jimmy Valiant and Ronnie Garvin, but they're not dead.

[The Fugitive]

Hmm. Did Orton Sr team up with Orton Jr? I don't recall.

If so, that might be it.

[Destor]

Yup, when Bob Jr. first started they team quite often.

[The Fugitive]

Actually, scratch that, it's not Bob Orton Sr.

Him and Orton Jr. won the Florida tag team titles in 1976.

[Jeritron]

Its not either Bob Orton because hes still alive, both of them I'm pretty sure. And Bob Orton sr. didnt wrestle in the 2000s. The best guess I've seen thus far is Cowboy Bob Orton, but hes alive... so it can't be him.
damnit this is tough.

[Xero]

Actually, scratch that, it's not Bob Orton Sr.

Him and Orton Jr. won the Florida tag team titles in 1976.
Even so, did Orton Sr. even wrestle in the 2000's?

Also, Orton Sr. is dead. He died a few months ago.

[Destor]

Even so, did Orton Sr. even wrestle in the 2000's?

Also, Orton Sr. is dead. He died a few months ago.Yeah, he retired in the year 2000 (July to be exact.) He had a few matches in the 2000's. It may not be right but it fits all clues.

[Destor]

Jerry, Orton IS dead. Sorry I had to be the one to tell you.

[The Fugitive]

He retired in 2000, so he could have still be a active wrestler before he retired.

... Oh. Good job stealing my thunder, Des.

[Jeritron]

I'm getting confused with all of you, just checking this all...
1. Bob Orton Sr. is dead now I'm gathering? I thought he was alive as of a year ago but he was pretty old so I believe it. However he never wrestled in the 2000s did he, he couldnt have because he was so damn old.
2. Bob Orton Jr. (Cowboy/Randy's Dad)- Is alive and has wrestled in the 2000s

All these Ortons...

[Destor]

1) Bob Orton died July 16, 2006.
2) Bob Orton retired (in the ring,) in July 2000.
3) Bob Jr is still with us.

[Destor]

I don't care how old he was, he wrestled in the year 2000. Fact.

[Jeritron]

I still can't believe the guy still wrestled.

[Destor]

Well he did.

[Jeritron]

I believe you, I just can't believe IT. haha. I saw the guy at the 2005 HOF induction and he looked 100.

[Xero]

It may not be right but it fits all clues.
Except the championship clue.

[Destor]

Shit, they did win the gold didn't they? FUCK.

[Jeritron]

NeanderCarl could have overlooked the Florida Tag titles by accident or something. stranger thigns have happened
He claims its "easy", yet other than Bob Orton Sr. I dont see one other wrestler well known by us that fits the clues.

[Chuck Jones]

I thought it was Hennig because:

1.Tagged with Larry when he debuted in the AWA, but they didn't win the title
2.When he was Perfect and intercontinental champ, he held the title for a year.
3. Debuted in 1979, Wrestled in all the decades, but his back injury gave him problems in wrestling so he managed and commentated in most of the early to mid 90s
4. Dead.

[Jeritron]

like i said earlier, it must be curt henning. I didnt know he debuted in 79 but now I'm sold.
Plus hes well known, so I could see how it would be considered "easy"
NeanderCarl needs to get back here asap.

[The Fugitive]

Can't be Hennig. He and Larry won the NWA Pacific Northwest Tag Team titles.

[Jeritron]

this is certainly not easy

[NeanderCarl]

It has to be Curt Henning

Nope.

Curt Hennig?

Yep.

There's no third 'N'. :p

[NeanderCarl]

And to honest the first clue, Hennig forming a team with his father, I thought they only teamed up in the AWA, so I confess to a little faux pas there. Didn't realise they'd held the prestigious NWA Pacific Northwest Tag Team Titles.

So apologies, but well done Chuck you had me again!

[Chuck Jones]

This is my first go round, so it may be too easy.

1.Him and his partner used to be skydivers and pilots judging by their outfits.
2.Does terrible jobs when it comes to hurricanes, so do not employ him in FEMA.
3. Likes the color Red and does not particularly care for the city of London.

This was hard. It seems more like a really shitty riddle, but I tried.

[TerranRich]

All I can think of is Rosey. :?:

[Jeritron]

I'm picking up on your riddles, but not putting them together for an answer.

[Xero]

I'd say Helms.

[NeanderCarl]

The Hurricane

[The Fugitive]

It's AJ Styles

[TerranRich]

See, my wrestling knowledge is limited to 1989-2006 WWE and 2006 TNA, so bleh.

[NeanderCarl]

Well, Chuck... do we get another clue?

[The Fugitive]

It's AJ Styles

[Destor]

It's AJ Styles

[Destor]

And for the record, spelling is irrelevant. If you can tell what it's supposed to be then they're right. Don't be a dick.

[ddpBANG]

And for the record, spelling is irrelevant. If you can tell what it's supposed to be then they're right. Don't be a dick.
I agree, because if spelling counted, Destor would never win. :shifty:

[Destor]

ddpBANG knows.

[The Fugitive]

Come on now, spelling may be irrelevant but if you can't spell or pronounce Hennig, then call him Mr. Perfect.

[Chuck Jones]

Fugitive got it first. It was AJ Styles.

[The Fugitive]

Sweet. Give me a minute.

[The Fugitive]

Clue 1: Wrestled for WWE
Clue 2: Wrestled for WCW
Clue 3: Has been Intercontinental champion.

[TerranRich]

Jeff Jarrett. But there are like 30 others that are correct as well.

[RVDmark]

Hogan?

[The Fugitive]

No and no. Keep guessing, I'll get back to you guys in the morning. :)

it has to be one of those lol

[TerranRich]

Heh, did you go through the title history of the I/C belt?

[The Fugitive]

I'm not impressed and I'm going to ignore that.

[Jeritron]

JH, multiple guesses were one matter of discussion as to the rules... But doing that is entirely against the rules dude. You should delete that and pick 1 guess man, we're trying to play a fair/fun game here.

anywho, I'll pick Scott Hall as my guess.

[JH]

sorry guys just trying to make a joke
and yes i did go through the ic title history lol

[NeanderCarl]

Mero

[Xero]

Isn't this question a bit vague? Like Terran said, there are a lot of guys who fit that perfectly.

[Destor]

Well, it's only the first set of clues...

[Xero]

Even still, there's got to be a point where if there are X amount of people who fit that it's just silly and it's basically a guess.

I can name the first wrestler who comes to mind: Steve Austin (seriously was the first to come to mind) and he would (and does) fit that criteria.

[Jeritron]

yes but that makes it kinda fun. Taking shots in the dark until it gets narrowed down and so forth. Some of the most fun rounds we've had have started off extremely vague and narrowed down.

[Xero]

Davey Boy Smith

[Destor]

Meh, his board.

[Destor]

Bret Hart btw

[Crippla]

You need more clues as a bunch of people fit that description but I'll go with Rick Rude.

[The Fugitive]

Stop your goddamn bitching about the clues. Trust me, when I give out additional clues, it's not going to take long for people to figure it out so I might as well have some fun. Fuck... try to make shit interesting and people have to moan about it.

And for the record, nobody has it so far.

[Crippla]

Undertaker.

[The Fugitive]

Clue 1: Wrestled for WWE
Clue 2: Wrestled for WCW
Clue 3: Has been Intercontinental champion.
Clue 4: The Intercontinental title was the only belt he held in WWE.

[Destor]

Steamboat

[The Fugitive]

Shit. Now that's a good guess, but no, I wasn't thinking of Ricky.

[Crippla]

Valentine?

[Destor]

Rick Rude

[The Fugitive]

Again, another good guess from Destor, but it's not Rick Rude.

CC - Valentine held the Tag Team titles with Brutus Beefcake.

[Crippla]

Oh shit that's right, I forgot.

[Destor]

Ahmed Johnson

[The Fugitive]

Haha, I had to double-check that, I didn't even know that he went to WCW after he left WWE. I always wondered what happened to him.

It's not Ahmed.

[Crippla]

He was Big T in WCW.

[Xero]

Honky Tonk Man

[Destor]

How about the Honkey Tonk Man?

[Destor]

:rant:

[Destor]

Fuck it, Shane Douglas

[The Fugitive]

Good work Xero! :y:

I was about to drop 'Cousin of a famous King' as my final clue, but I guess I didn't need to do that.

[Xero]

Okay...

1. Was in main event stables in both WWF and WCW.
2. Wrestler-turned-Manger.
3. Held the mid-card titles (Intercontinental and US) in WCW and WWF at one point or another.

[Destor]

Ric Flair

[Xero]

No.

[Crippla]

Rick Rude.

[The Fugitive]

Rick Rude?

[The Fugitive]

You sneaky little prick.

[Xero]

Rick Rude.
:y:

[Destor]

No. Reconsider. Surely you can find someone else who fits the clues Xero. At least try.

[Crippla]

Nope. You gotta give it to me DESTOR :)

[The Fugitive]

Bret Hart actually fits all the clues... I think.

[Destor]

This means I'll have to view a crippla post for a reason other than neg repping him. Well fuck it all. Luckily I can't rep him at the moment so atleast I get out of giving him a green dot...

[Crippla]

1. Is a former Intercontinental Champion.
2. Wrestled in WWE, ECW, and WCW.
3. Was part of one of the most famous stables of all time.

[The One]

Scott Hall

[Crippla]

Not who I'm thinking of.

[Destor]

Without reading his post: Chris Benoit.

[Crippla]

The clues will get better too. How many guesses before I give another clue? 5?

[Crippla]

Without reading his post: Chris Benoit.
:y: You know me too well I guess.

[The Fugitive]

Shane Douglas.

[Destor]

Someone tell me if I win. I'm gonna play with out seeing his clues.

[Crippla]

No, Destor got it.

[Destor]

Booker T

[Crippla]

FFS, someone tell him Benoit was right.

[The Fugitive]

Keep guessing, Des.

[The One]

DESTOR!

You were right with Chris Benoit.

[Destor]

LOL sweet

[Xero]

You got it Destor, lol, it was Benoit.

[The Fugitive]

Awww. Way to ruin my fun. :(

[Crippla]

:mad:

[Crippla]

You know my instincts too well, Destor.

[The One]

So here's some clues...

1) He used the gimmick Mr. Ass
2) He is now a member of VKM
3) He is Monty Sopp, Billy Gunn, Kip James...whichever name you wish.

Now guess people guess!

[Crippla]

Gee, I have no idea.

[Destor]

LOL, sad thing is his clues probably would have thrown me off.

Clue 1: Has appeared in WCW, ECW, and WWE.
Clue 2: Was apart of a famous stable.
Clue 3: Former Intercontinental Champion.

(Yes I stole Crippla's clues)

[The Fugitive]

It's Big Dick Johnson!

[The One]

Scott Hall

[Crippla]

SON OF A BITCH!

[Crippla]

Shane Douglas.

[Destor]

No to all, even Crippla.

[The One]

Steve Austin

(If you count The Alliance as a famous stable)

[Crippla]

I bet I was right and you're just rigging this so I lose.

[The Fugitive]

Eddie Guerrero

[Destor]

No to both of you. And TOVO this is a REALLY famous stable. top 10 of all for sure.

[The Fugitive]

Lance Storm

[Destor]

Nope. Few more and I'll give another clue.

[Crippla]

I'm gonna say Benoit to see if you stole my answer too.

[Destor]

Not Benoit.

[The Fugitive]

I did change my original answer from Y2J to Lance Storm about the same time you posted, Destor.

Just wondering if you caught that or not.

[Destor]

No I didn't but it's still wrong.

[Crippla]

When you say "ECW", do you just mean the original or are you including WWECW?

[Destor]

It could be either. Or both.

[The Fugitive]

Wait, so by that logic, when you say WCW, you could also mean WCW during the Invasion?

[Crippla]

RVD?

[The One]

WWE/ECW shouldn't count as ECW...

[The Fugitive]

Come on now, what stable was RVD a part of?

[TerranRich]

Psicosis! :p

[Destor]

Wait, so by that logic, when you say WCW, you could also mean WCW during the Invasion?yeah I guess. Vince is the owner of both of those companies, so I don't see how it matters. If anybody else owned there wouldn't even be a question now would it? By the logic that the modern ECW isn't ECW then Paul E.'s ECW wasn't ECW only Tod Gordon's was. It all counts in my book.

[Destor]

No to all.

Clue 1: Has appeared in WCW, ECW, and WWE.
Clue 2: Was apart of a famous stable.
Clue 3: Former Intercontinental Champion.
Clue 4: Has had many tag title reigns with several different partners.

[The One]

Test...

Was in Vince McMahon's WWE
Was in Vince McMahon's WCW
Was in Vince McMahon's ECW
Won the Intercontinental Title
Was in the Corperation...certainly in my book a top ten stable of all time.

EDIT: Didn't see the new clue...nevermind

[Destor]

Fine guess. But alas, no.

[The Fugitive]

I'm tempted to say Edge but I don't recall him ever wrestling for any version of WCW.

[TerranRich]

Test. Union.

[Destor]

You'd be wrong if that'll help.

[Destor]

Test. Union.Best stable ever right there.

[TerranRich]

Damn this thread moves too fast.

[TerranRich]

I'm going through the list of I/C title holders and out of the few that were ever in Heyman's ECW or Vince's ECW, there are like a few that have already been asked. I must be missing someone.

[Destor]

Don't know what to tell you. My clues are accurate I promise.

[JH]

shane douglas

[Destor]

Clue 1: Has appeared in WCW, ECW, and WWE.
Clue 2: Was apart of a famous stable.
Clue 3: Former Intercontinental Champion.
Clue 4: Has had many tag title reigns with several different partners.

[Destor]

No JH, not Shane Douglas.

[TerranRich]

I want to say Christian, but I don't remember him ever being in any form of ECW

[Destor]

Nah he wasn't. Keep 'em coming I'll give another in a bit.

[Crippla]

Booker T

Has appeared on WWECW.

Was IC Champ.

Was part of the NWO in WWE.

[Destor]

Damn that Crippla.

[TerranRich]

Ricky Steamboat.

[Destor]

He saw through my clever ruse.

[TerranRich]

Oh. When did he appear in WWECW?

[Crippla]

Damn that Crippla.
I was right? Nice.

[The Fugitive]

This is ridicilous.

[TerranRich]

I want to guess one right just so I can ask mine. :D

[Crippla]

I re-read the clues and saw you said "appeared".

[Destor]

This is ridicilous.Ridiculous, yet accurate.

[Crippla]

Clue 1: Was part of a famous tag team.

Clue 2: Never wrestled in WCW.

Clue 3: Dead.

[The One]

EDIT: SO far behind...

[TerranRich]

Owen Hart.

[Jeritron]

owen hart

[Destor]

Is it Owen HArt?

[Jeritron]

yokozuna

[Crippla]

Owen Hart.
First one to get it...must of made it too easy.

[Jeritron]

it all comes down to what is a "famous" tag team. Are we talking LOD, Hardys, NAO famous...or just a team that was a tag team in WWE, like Owen/Jarret or Owen/Bulldog? Famous is a vague word.

[Jeritron]

that was lame, 3 people guessed it within a minute.

[Destor]

(I was just mimicking you two)

[TerranRich]

Yes! Okay, here goes:

1. Former United States Champion
2. Former Intercontinental Champion
3. Former World Tag Team Champion
4. Has been in at least one movie

Not sure if this is too easy or too hard.

[Jeritron]

Edge

[Crippla]

it all comes down to what is a "famous" tag team. Are we talking LOD, Hardys, NAO famous...or just a team that was a tag team in WWE, like Owen/Jarret or Owen/Bulldog? Famous is a vague word.
I was thinking of The Hart Foundation...

[Crippla]

Booker T again?

[TerranRich]

Nope, not Edge. What movie was he in?

[TerranRich]

Not Booker. "Ready to Rumble" doesn't count as a movie. :p

j/k

[Destor]

Highlander 4 Endgame.

Anywho, Ric Flair

[The One]

Roddy Piper

[TerranRich]

Nope, not Flair. I'll be back in half an hour, guys. I'm leaving work now. We'll see if anyone gets it by then.

[Jeritron]

Rowdy Roddy Piper

[TerranRich]

Never mind. TOVO got it. Rowdy Roddy Piper. :)

Former WWE I/C champ, WCW US champ, and WTT champ just recently. And "at least one movie" meaning 31. Was it too easy?

[Jeritron]

the quickness of this thread sucks

[Crippla]

It's hard to think of harder questions. Destor's good because he thinks of ways to throw us off like that last one he did.

[Destor]

It's on fire right now.

[Xero]

A bit late on this, but Owen did wrestle in WCW...

[Crippla]

Yeah, he had a stint there, didn't he? Oh well, I guess I fucked up. He only wrestled there for like a month I think.

[The One]

New Clues...

1) Wrestled in three different decades
2) Famous around the world for his work in Tag Team wrestling
3) Was a part of a tag team that unified two tag titles

[Jeritron]

You didnt fuck up, your mother did.
Anyways, its forgiveable and we move on to the next question.

[Xero]

Michael Hayes?

[Crippla]

Shut the fuck up, Jeritron, it was a mistake.

[The One]

Michael Hayes - No

[Crippla]

Bobby Eaton?

[The One]

Bobby Eaton - No

[Jeritron]

who knows, Bubba Ray?

[The One]

Bubba Ray - No

NEW CLUE

4) Is dead.

[Jeritron]

davey boy smith

[Jeritron]

my guess sucked

[Xero]

Road Warrior Hawk?

[The One]

No to both.

[Crippla]

I'm thinking someone old school.

[The One]

You know what...I am a freaking towel. The very first set of clues lead to Terry Gordy. Guess I should have read the thread from the start, but the answer is Bam Bam. So since it's a repeat, and since Xero guess Michael Hayes and he was in Freebirds with Terry, I'm giving the honorary win to Xero.

[Destor]

Bah, with a game like this repeats don't matter. Anywho, first person to go can have it.

[Xero]

Wow, I feel so honored. :shifty:

Anyway...

1. Has been involved in multiple matches with non-wrestlers.
2. Has wrestled in WCW, TNA, and WWE.
3. Made his PPV debut at a WrestleMania.

[JH]

roddy piper

[Xero]

No.

[ddpBANG]

Jeff Jarrett

[JH]

ddp

[Xero]

ddp
:y:

[ddpBANG]

I feel kinda dumb right now... :-\

[JH]

ok my turn

1.competed in 5 different promotions
2.had more than 1 stint in wwf
3.had more forgettable matches than memorable ones

[The One]

*I am willing to bet no matter who it is, I will be able to find more than 5 promotions they worked for

*Judging a match's forgettableness vs. it's worth as a memorable one is kind of (VERY) subjective

*Terrible clues.

My guess...Boogeyman

[ddpBANG]

Dustin Runnels

[JH]

no
think about the hint wwf

[Xero]

Brooklyn Brawler

[JH]

no
1 more hint
his stint in wcw in the late 90's was very forgettable

[ddpBANG]

Warrior

[JH]

you got it ddpBANG

[ddpBANG]

1. Former cruiserweight champ
2. Has competed in WCW, WWE and TNA
3. Has also been a manager

[JH]

raven

[ddpBANG]

No

[The One]

Promotions Jim "Warrior" Hellwig worked in...

Mid-South
UWF
WCCW
WCW
WWF
WWS

I count six good sir.

[ddpBANG]

He never said only 5, The One. :roll:
