Is New Jack the most popular wrestler to never step foot in WCW or WWE
 

One of those random thoughts I had watching ECW.

It's completely ridiculous, but it's probably New Jack

Probably still Sting, for now

Fuck you dude. MG Hurst.

Sting was never in wcw??

I'll say yes just because the lucky bastard got to bang terri runnels

Christ, that was supposed to say WCW or WWE. Topic fail.

Probably some TNA dude is more popular than New Jack

Lol name one.

ECW was pretty big, and the WWE releasing all this ECW footage even more people know him, plus shit like Beyond the Mat and his stabbing people on youtube and beating a 70 year old man with a baseball bat.

Samoa Joe, AJ Styles, Bobby Roode, James Storm.... probably all more popular than New Jack.

Wait, AJ Styles was in WCW so :foc: him.

I'd say probably AJ Styles but I wouldn't dispute if you said otherwise

was he? I did not know that

I retract my post as well

EGG on FACE here :o

grizzly redwood

Magnum TA. He rassled in the NWA but never WCW.

He was part of the tag team division in the dying months....

Air Styles and Air Paris....... AIR RAID

I win. /thread

Samoa Joe wrestled on Velocity

I'd bet my house that New Jack was more popular than Bobby Roode and James Storm.

There is no way it can be New Jack.

It seems like someone had to have gained SOME semblance of popularity somehow without setting foot in WWE or WCW. I can't think of anyone off the top of my head though.

Magnum TA

He was never in WCW.

James Storm wrestled in WCW and Robert Roode wrestled in the WWE

NWA/WCW is basically the same thing. He wrestled in the big two. WCW became WCW in 1986, the same year Magnum got into his accident.

Lol I told ya, New Jack seems ridiculous but it's very hard to come up with a different answer.

I guess it depends on how you define popularity. If it's just within the wrestling world, it could definitely be New Jack. If we're counting mainstream recognition, there are guys on TV and in movies who could win out.

Fair enough

The only TNA guy that wold come close is Samoa Joe

Was Steve Corino in WCW?

I'm defining it as people know who he is.

Lol like I said, name one.

Probably Bruiser Brody

Corino wrestles matches in the WWF

Even if Steve Corino was never in WCW he will probably not be dubbed as popular as New Jack.

So I will lose again

Son of a dick

Brody wrestled in the NWA.

Well if that's the case, more people know who Eric Young is than New Jack.

He's got some show on Animal Planet that is relatively popular. My fucking mom knows who he is.

But of course he probably jobbed on an episode of Jakked or something.

You basically have to find someone who was completely independant (I consider ECW to be independant)

Simon Diamond

Close: Sunday Night Heat and I saw him in a tag team against Palumbo and Stamboli on Velocity.

Well that takes part of TNA and part of ECWs timeline then

Frank Gotch and Georg Hackenschmidt

Im positive Simon and Swinger wrestled in a Dark Match in the WWF. That being said, New Jack was more popular

He wasn't as popular as New Jack.

It couldn't be an ECW guy. Anyone in ECW as popular as New Jack would have at least stepped foot in WWE or WCW.

it's totes new jack

Mass Transit

Should probably state the topic as post 1986 Territory area.

Rockstar Spud more popular

I've got the answer...

Andy Kaufman.

So did new jack

Every match New Jack rassled was a dark match....ey-oh!

Kenta Kobashi.

And I wouldn't call what New Jack does "wrestling."

When did New Jack wrestle in a dark match? If so then this has been a complete waste of fucking time.

Kaufman appeared in the WWF if you can believe it

AJ Styles was in WWE too.

I can't believe it.

In other news, Slater Gator just beat Goldust and Stardust on Main Event.

Slater Gator baby!

Also, I skimmed through cagematch.net and found no New Jack matches for WWE or WCW.

Yuppers. Vince actually promoted Kaufman vs Lawler on WWF television and did an interview with Kaufman

False premise of a thread. New Jack was NOT a wrestler. He wasn't even a brawler. He was just a propsmith.

New Jack was awesome. The Gangstas were bad fucking ass.

Mohammed Ali---boom. Winner!

Ali fought Gorilla Monsoon

Lol he basically wrestled in front of Pat Patterson

This thread idea sounded so much less complicated in my head. Fuck it.

Set up to fail hahaha

The answer to this and every question is Rock and Roll Buck Zumhofe./end thread.

WWE signed the only member of the Gangstas that was worth a shit in the ring.

You'd better recognize!

That was WWWF. You said WWE. #jewlawyerpost

Exactly.

how did i forget buck zumhofe?! #FreeBuck

A miscarriage of justice

Im gonna base my King of the Forum platform on the release of Buck Zumhofe back into society.

i need him to bring his half awful normal sized wrestlers/half midget wrestler promotion back to my hometown for more mediocre action set on a sand volleyball court!

still can't believe i met him and his daughter. one of the weirdest anecdotes of my life.

This horrible thread is almost at 3 pages.

I remember when Poit said none of my topic threads ever got responses.

Who's laughing now!!!!!

Weirdest or greatest? You shook hands with a legend. Lol still love your Buck Zumhofe encounter.

Abraham Lincoln

yeah i guess i didn't technically meet his daughter; she was just standing right there. he probably told her she wasn't allowed to talk to the locals.

(i'm still trying to think of a legit answer here. i have nothing.)

Lol she probably was going to slip you a note " please help, my dad rapes me every night", to which you'd reply "Hey Buck, can I buy you another beer"

part of me really wants this shirt

http://www.defunkd.com/blog/wp-conte...11/11/rock.gif

Haha it's an awesome shirt

Col. DeBeers. I win.

I think its clearly Austin Aries

That was recently. Have you seen Terri Runnels recently?

Owenbrown's fav rassler!

Ian Rotten.

0.o

They signed Mustafa?

D Lo before the chest protector

If you're counting one-off jobber matches of the Velocity/Heat variety, then AJ Styles was eliminated even without the Air Raid reference.


What the heck ever happened to Air Paris, anyway?

New Jack Wrestled for TNA in 2003 when they were a part of the NWA

Hey Savior

Hell, D-Lo before he was an extra in the Nation of Domination.

Hey guys, just making sure everyone is getting along ok in here, call if you need anything.

Hope the readers here aren't getting touched unwarranted at home. PM me if you are and need help or an edit, thanks.

Was Hayabusa or The Giant Baba ever in WWE/WCW?

Baba had wrestled for Vincent J. McMahon in the United States in the early 1960s, unsuccessfully challenging NWA champion Buddy Rogers for the world title, and returning to face Bruno Sammartino for the WWWF title in 1963 in Madison Square Garden. Bruno retained, defeating Baba.--this was actually mine but Wikipedia plagiarized it from me. Assholes.
