Oh my god! Randy Savage being tied up in the ropes, as Jake Roberts let his cobra bite Randy! I mean, I remember seeing that on Superstars, and I was AHHHHHHHHH!!!! They put a flashing red X on the screen, which made a great censor
.
Anywho, a few nights ago I was going through some old wrestling tapes, and I found a clip of that, without the censor! Many little kids crying, people screaming, watching Roddy Piper come to Randy's aid, and seeing Randy stumble around like a washed up pro wrestler who thinks he could rap (wait a second...), and my little sister saw that for the first time. She's 14, and was shocked to see it! It was just... AHHHHHHHH!!!
I wasn't sad when The Rockers broke up. Frankly, Shawn was the first heel I liked. My twin bro on the other hand will still tell me to fuck off to this very day when I bring that up.
The first ever ladder match... That was "brutal" and "hardcore." For its time it was awesome, and it's the foundation for the modern day TLC and ladder matches.
Let's fast forward to the lovely work of The Road Dogg Jesse James and Baddass Billy Gunn... When the New Age Outlaws pushed Cactus Jack and Chainsaw Charlie off the stage, when they were in the dumpster... Yeah, I knew it was fixed, but that was just WOOOOOOOOOAH! Took up a lot of air time, and it was the biggest mark out I had in a while.
Ah, and then there was the screwjob in Montreal.
