The WRASSLIN’ Thread

It also looks like EC3 from Impact Wrestling will be signing with the WWE. I don't if anyone one remembers this but he was in WWE developmental before as Derrick Bateman. He was on on NXT at the end of the original version of NXT.
 
So I’m watching a bunch of Royal Rumbles the last couple weeks and I get to the 2001 Rumble where Austin wins his third.

So I see this guys enter at 18 and he looks a lot like R-Truth. I’m thinking “no way Truth has been wrestling that long is there?”. Turns out it was him under The Truth.

I look up his Wikipedia page and how old is R-Truth??? HE IS 46 YEARS OLD. I can’t believe he is that old.

I watched an old show not long ago and he was with Road Dog, i guess he took Billy Gunn's place? I had either forgotten that or had never seen that.

Last night i watched the whole 1998 Royal Rumble ppv when Stone Cold won, the night before Mike Tyson was on Raw.


Speaking of old wrestlers, Terry Funk was in that RR, i googled him and saw that he's 73 and he had a match a few months ago against Jerry the King Lawler.

Isn’t Funk the guy with like ten retirement matches? I know Lawler still wrestles. Blows my mind. I can’t believe Lawler is that desperate for money.

Lulz, Rikishi eliminates Taker with the worst kick of all time. How that guy ever got a push in 2001 blows my mind
 
Also I forgot how absolutely jacked Kane was in his younger days. He went like 50 something minutes in the Rumble and was significantly active in it.

Lol yeah that's him. He was also Chainsaw Charlie. There's no telling how many concussions he's had in his career. Still going at 73 is crazy.

Speaking of concussions, Kane took three unprotected chair shots in ten seconds after going 50 minutes in the Rumble. Just absolutely brutal. I can’t believe they used to do that ****.

Also JR is so much unbelievably better than anyone at commentary.

Better than Mauro?? Jk, everybody is better than Mauro.

Phillips is the best right now play by play. Cole is so terrible right now, you can tell he reads right from the script. Which is a shame bc I loved listening to him in Smackdown when I was younger and he did such an awesome job on the UK tournament last year.
