I used to play with those constantly. I have almost the entire Hasbro set except for the last series or so (no Adam Bomb, Yoko, Bam Bam, Kona Crush, etc.), plus the ring.

I used to have a massive fake WWE set-up in my room when I was a kid that included all of those, plus the Ninja Turtles (Mike and Leo, predominantly, 'cause I had the figures that did the acrobatic tricks), the American Gladiators (Laser and Turbo were Tag Champions for, like, a year), plus a few old Marvel Comics figures I had (Doc Ock, Captain America, and Spider-Man were upper-mid-carders).

Looking back, I was a creative little kid. I had really elaborate turn angles (notably a face Papa Shango feuding with the Berzerker. A little sketchy on the details, but part of it involved a "Giant-at-Halloween-Havoc"-style bump by Mister Nord), and would even go so far as to use LEGOs to build a set for Slammy Awards.

Goddamn, now I want to get those things out of the storage room and play with them so bad.
