You automatically feel sorry the other guy...You know you're getting your ass beat when you do your entrance in the commercial break. They always had the guys with no entrance just show up in the ring lol. This is like a 12th grader bullying a 6th grader.
Back then I never saw this man as a main event star, to me he was a wimp who would never be more than a mid carder, how wrong I was and I'm glad I was because he went on to become one of the best ever
@Moss235 well it was this gimmick that led me to believe he would become a top star someday. like the stunning steve austin character in wcw and the undertaker character that debuted and owen's heel turn and masked kane's debut that they had that it factor to be future main event stars and champions.
He stopped using that finisher because DDP called him and asked him if he'd mind not using it because he was starting to get it over as the Diamond Cutter and Hunter said "Done, No Problem".
@rayman445 actually if not for this gimmick he probably wouldn't gotten over as he did. this gimmick was the reason he got pushed so heavily in his first year. he went undefeated for 11 months until he lost by submission to bret hart. then wrestlemania 12 he suffered his first pinfall loss. he was scheduled to win the 1996 king of the ring but because of the kliq incident in m.s.g. he was jobbed out. then went on to win the i.c title in late 1996 as well as winning the 1997 king of the ring.
or he got pushed because he had so much political leverage being friends with HBK. That is not to say HHH is not talented but he would be nowhere today without the help of HBK political savvy in WWF back then.
wheres the match when i think he faces the undertaker in a theatre place and the undertaker chases him up and down an escalator? anybody know what im talking about?
wow...he was so much more agile - and the no-beard didn't look as goofy lmao. The weight he was billed at then (or now) has to be wrong...there's no way 15-20 pounds can make him as huge and stiff move-wise as he is now
he is less then half the size he is now, and i love how the wwe aka wwf can turn people frome hate to love, the fans are more gullible then adam when he ate the apple
funny enough a lot of the stuff his future father in law was saying about hunter hearst helmsley (a.k.a. triple h) was true. he was trained by the best in Killer Kowalski, i found it funny all the comments made by vince towards his future son in law and the father of his granddaughters.
Sonny Rodgers could of been the next big thing. It's a shame Vince never gave him the push he deserved. His finisher in itself was something to behold. He called it "Sonny Side Up."
Ok guys, that era from like mid 1994 to mid to late1996 was some of the worst crap the WWF ever had. However, the stuff between HBK and Bret Hart does not apply to this statement as all that was GOLD!
DAMN at 3:22!!! Well I guess when your not as huge as you are now you can do that kinda stuff. On another note can you imagine what he'd be like today if he acted how he acted here?
how did HE turn into HHH? just goes to show u, u can't predict how any wrestler will turn out.. thats why I don't like how people get so cynical over some current guys.. look at HHH, and look at Austin, even Rock...they started off with stupid stupid gimmicks
@MyHeadAsplodes I don't know, man. Goldberg's debut in WCW had him enter the ring off-screen, yet his jobber opponent - a guy named Hugh Morris (a caricature of the word "humorous") entered the ring to theme music.
Go type in "Goldberg WCW debut," and you'll see what I mean.
@dstebbin Hugh Morris was no ordinary jobber. Yeah, he lost a lot of his matches but he was with WCW for many years siding with the Dungeon of Doom. He wasn't a random guy you see once and then he's done. He was actually involved in story lines, unlike the jobber you see in the video.
So that's where his finisher's name came from. Retained from his earliest gimmick. Hey, notice how the face expressions of the ladies in the crowd change when Hunter takes his shirt off? xD
Wonder if at any point during this match Vince thought wow I want that guy to blow a load in my daughter.
