Maybe, It's just me. But, Earthquake looks like a shell of a man, he once was. Look at his eyes, That fire he once had died long ago. That's a damn shame, Earthquake back in the day, He was cool. Not just that, But he had tons of energy for a man on the heftier side of things.
It's just kind of sad, To see a wrestler I loved as a child. That he has become basically, A rotting shell.
@BodomTranquilityWorm Perhaps so. But Tenta continued to wrestle because he loved it. And apparently one of the most respected men in wrestling as he was quite happy to help give deserving guys a push. Tenta's effort in wrestling will have him remembered well for a long time.
DID YOU KNOW?: WWE is losing a record amount of viewers because of scum like mysterio and sin cara. Obviously, nobody wants to see criminal immigrant beaners on tv.
@unclebobpart2 and did you know Rey Mysterio has made WWE more millions in mask sales in the past few years than you will ever make in your entire life. Get real.
@unclebobpart2 actually im english. im guessing your american becuase its only americans that hate mexicans. why are americans the most selfish and racist nation on the planet? and the best thing is your entire country is founded apon immigration. hell i bet your last name szlakowski.
WCW did with John Tenta what WWE did with many big men... at the end they were just there to make new big men look good... this list includes John 'Earthquake'Tenta against Yokozuna, than YOkozuna gaianst Vader and than Vader against Kane... makes you think...
@Vauhnik and now Kane against Mark Henry for what it seems, altough they tried to do that to Kane numerous times in the past for "new" big men like Snitsky, khali and the fake Kane
I met Big show & Curt Angle at the PX. I only went there to see The Big Show but when I got the autographs and actually seen these guys, me & my brother were speachless. Big Show told my brother he had a nice watch, and my brother couldnt even say thanks, he just smiled and walked away. Then Big Show, said to me: Tell your he had a nice watch. LOL all I did was nod and walked away. Shoulda seen the Big Show Grip a Marker to sign our AutoGraphps!
Giant shouldn't have been champion though the only reason he was is because him and jimmy hart stooged Hulk Hogan with some kind of the belt can change hands by disqualification in the contract bullshit. I remember thinking how weak that was and not being half surprised when Hogan finally properly resurfaced after a bunch of dungeon of doom fail matches and turned heel. It was kind of like he really did hate wcw at the time.
@me31669 Hogan turned heel because the fans started booing him as face. The DQ title change was probably because Hogan refused to put over Big Show/Giant
it's sad to see how far the Big Show has fallen since his Giant WCW days, here he is treating one of the most feared big men in the 1980s WWF like a little toddler and now he's getting his ass beaten by someone like Jack Swagger of all people
The only reason why the nWo was ever entertaining was the shock of Hogan turning heel. Had somebody else been the third man at Bash at the Beach, it would have sucked. The nWo was overrated, IMO, although I enjoyed it at the time.
very true, the whole appeal was Hogan as a heel. it started getting ridiculus once NWO was the cool thing and then split into the wolf pac. still got my NWO shirt though
He was a two-time WCW Champion. If I'm not mistaken, he's the only person in history to have held the WWE, WCW, and ECW Titles, although he wasn't in the original ECW.
This looks like a modern early Andre the Giant vs. Earthquake. If Big Show's hair was a little more puffed up, then he would look exactly like Andre the Giant did back in the 1970's, early 1980's.
WWE misuses so many wrestlers. So sad if you think how much talent they've really dissipated. (Kane, Paul Wight, Chris Jericho, Shelton Benjamin, and definitely a few others) <--- They use them wisely once in a while, but crappily most of the time. It's a shame :(
they made the Giant larger than he is.(specail boots) i think in a real match the Giant looks not so good like this....against Tenta. Big Show is one of the best, but i think some of you overrated him.
This wrestling looks real.. IDK if it is but I know for sure todays wrestling is very fake... You rarely see a chokeslam where the person getting chokeslammed doesnt bend his knees and jump in the air. Etc.
He's still kickin ass tho.. that's all that matters isnt it? This fat ass in the blue costume is a wrestler and Is obviously pretty good to get a title match...Fittness doesnt = skill.
I'm sorry to say this, but Tenta was a complete piece of shit in WCW, as evidenced here. He even became a no-name jobber at the end of his term in WCW. (Remember when Piper picked Tenta and two other jabronis to be his tag partners at Uncensored '97?)
Não, é a "dublagem" direta da tv, possivelmente feita pela TNT Brasil, e colocada por cima da original. A voz que "dubla" o Tony Schiavone é mesma do Cartoon Network.
