And apparently all those made it farther than the idea of Christopher Daniels being the "Higher Power" before Vince did it himself because The Fallen Angel was, say it with me now, "too small".

Remember when John Morrison debuted as Eric Bischoff's apprentice, Johnny Blaze?

Before quickly changing it to Johnny Spade.

Before quickly changing again it to Johnny Nitro.

Remember when Jim Johnston performed Shawn Michaels' DX entrance at WM XIV?

Remember Ryan Braddock? Had a very brief stint on the main roster, believe they started repackaging him as an Elvis impersonator in dark matches before he got released. Ultimately went on to have a multi-year TNA run as Jay Bradley/Aiden O'Shea.

IIRC from the McMahon DVD years ago, Vince originally wanted to do an incest angle with him and Steph and when she said no he then pitched Shane and Steph instead.

I think he got called up with Scotty Goldman and I think one other guy who was in and out fast like Braddock and Cabana

Can't see the gif, was Alicia Foxx his valet?

Supreme Olajuwon 09-22-2020 12:11 PM

Remember when Buff Bagwell wrestled one WWE match and was so bad that Vince scrapped the entire concept of having WCW remain a separate brand?

They were setting that concept up for failure.

Remember when that steroid dealer confused Roman Reigns for Luther Reigns when saying who he sold roids to? :lol:

Evil Vito 09-22-2020 01:28 PM

Remember when Rene Dupree and Kenzo Suzuki were tag team champions?

Remember when Kenzo was originally going to be called "Hirohito" after a Japanese emperor but they canned it due to it causing issues with Japan.

Tommy Rich was such a weird shape by then, a big loud mouthpiece with bingo wings and a back shaped like a camel.

Bad News Gertner 09-22-2020 02:03 PM

lol his promos were friggen hilarious. Especially on House Shows shot on fan cams.

Cant remember if this was Alicia's debut or if she was Edge's wedding planner first

Savio 09-22-2020 02:58 PM

It's weird when I was in college I'd never watch Raw or SD but I'd catch ECW sometimes. Was an enjoyable 1 hour show with nothing too stupid going on (that I can remember).

Bad News Gertner 09-22-2020 03:17 PM

I loved the New ECW. The New Breed vs Originals was a lot of fun, and when they turned into sort of a Finishing School for the main roster it was a lot of fun as well.

She was so hot.

And yeah I loved WWECW. You could pretty much tell who was going there in the draft every year because it was a land for the semi big names that had nothing to do on the main shows (Matt Hardy, Vladimir Kozlov, Mark Henry etc)

Bad News Gertner 09-22-2020 03:27 PM

My God was she ever hot

Remember Bam Neely

Bad News Gertner 09-22-2020 06:49 PM

lol remember when they repackaged Jesse from "Jesse and Festus" as " Slam Masta J". I think he had one match against Charlie Haas and that was it.

screech 09-22-2020 07:05 PM

lol didn't he join Cryme Tyme for one backstage segment?

screech 09-22-2020 07:07 PM

Tiffany was goddamn gorgeous.

Also loved WWE's ECW. Kinda wanna rewatch it. Some gems in there.

Remember Just Joe? He wandered around backstage delivering bad news to people, then said "I'm just the messenger."

I saw him wrestle on Metal (remember that and Jakked?) and that's when I realized that those random characters are also rasslers.

Dude I can even tell you his finisher lol. It was a jumping Downwards Spirial. I love that they created a Locker room stooge character

Bad News Gertner 09-22-2020 07:19 PM

As you can tell, I've watched a lot of "C" shows over the years lol Probably more than the "A" shows. We didn't get cable until 2002, so I lived on Jakked/Metal/Shotgun for my WWF viewing. Occasional Raw if i could get someone to tape it for me. Thank God for the creation of Smackdown

I remember him teaming with Jimmy Wang Yang, who also had a team going around that same era with Shannon Moore.

So many random Smackdown guys.

Evil Vito 09-22-2020 08:29 PM

I may or may not have Google image searched Taryn Terrell/Tiffany for a refresher on how hot she was and then found myself occupied for a few minutes.

Bad News Gertner 09-22-2020 08:42 PM

Haha yeah I took a few looks as well
