Orlando Jordan?

Doug Basham?

Danny Basham?

OJ was US and the Bashams were tag team champions.

ELIJAH BURKE.

DA POPE!

I always feel proud of myself if I do guess them. That column is pretty amazing too. :y:

I found a guy that I feel came so close to meeting those requirements, but it turned out even this guy wrestled on the A-show.

kinda hard to find someone that hasn't been a hardcore champion :P

You're all wrong so far.

Who was it? Because this individual has wrestled on the A-Show before, but not under the name he's probably best known for, and the name that I'm looking for.

I'll keep it in my back pocket, because I might use it for some trivia. But they don't fit the 50% US Champions as opponents either.

The name thing is throwing me.

<font color=goldenrod>Gunner Scott?</font>

<font color=goldenrod>The US champions hint made me think it couldn't have been someone around long if it was easy enough to figure out that half his matches came against former US champs. And since the US Title was on the blue brand for most of the brand split that kinda narrowed it down to obscure SmackDown wrestlers from the brand extension era.

The more I read up on it though, everything checks out:

-Wrestled job matches on Raw and stuff under Slater Vain, Brent Albright, etc.
-Beat Booker T in his Gunner Scott debut
-First loss was to Finlay in England
-Worked tag matches with Benoit (former ECW tag champ) and Matt Hardy (who would later go on to win the WWECW title)
-Was only around for like a couple of months, mostly wrestling against midcarders in the US Title scene including former champs
-Never wrestled on Raw as Gunner Scott

If it's not him I'm totally stumped lol</font>

If you're right, we'll just re-assign you to immediately solving all the world's problems.

What do Lex Luger, DDP, Goldberg, and The Miz all have in common?

They're all wrestlers.

All wrestlers who _________

Wrestle(d). DUH.

#SRSBSNSS

Damn it, you nailed it, I bet. I was thinking of all those sorts of performers from that era, but I never came to him, for some reason.

Lost the US Title to Bret Hart.

Who am I?

I was part of a well-known faction during the WWE brand split era, and I took the name I am perhaps best known by from another famous athlete. In the past, I've competed under many different names, and I once changed my name for a singles match to keep continuity with a previous appearance for that company, where I wrestled my first match in 2000. Under the name I am perhaps best known by, I defeated a former World Champion, and my first loss took place on foreign soil. I once shared a name with a former TNA World Champion and shared a gimmicked background profession with a former WWE European Champion. My only match on RAW was against Triple H.

Correct!

Bam Neely?

He didn't wrestle for WWE in 2000, though, did he?

Jesus Christ, you wrestling nerds, how in the fuck do you remember things like that I ask?

Noid questions are impossible without looking shit up. And even when I do look stuff up, I still can't find it.

Probably one of the ECW originals or new breed.

Didn't Bam wrestle as Magnus something outside of the company?

Kenny Dykstra

Kenny had a lot of matches on Raw

I was thinking of Bam Neely. Sorry, I didn't realize he had more than one match on RAW. I suck at writing these, haha.

Fuck your grapes!!!!!

<font color=goldenrod>I'll try my hand at a Who Am I. Never done one of these so it'll probably end up being extremely easy but whatever:

Although I'm no longer with WWE, we're still very much on good terms and I suspect people would be happy if I made any cameos in the future. I held two championships with the company, and filled multiple on-camera roles on the show during my tenure. I'm particularly proud about the job I did in one of those roles. During the brand split era, I stayed true to my brand right up until my final day.</font>

Juventud Guerrera

as Kenny Dykstra?

SMACKDOWN

NUMBA ONE ANNOUNCER

FUNAKI.

<font color=goldenrod>Indeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed. Knew it'd be easy.</font>

Who Am I

I never wrestled in the "Big Two", but I was known as the head of a famous family. I never held gold in the company I was most famous for. My finishing move was used by a now deceased WWE wrestler known as a ladies man. I also share something in common with Taz, Matt Striker and Bill Demott.

Gonna throw one more of these out there before I head to work.

Who Am I

I no longer wrestle. I share something in common with Jerry Lawler. I took my name from an obscure movie star. The only championship that I held was tag gold in a now defunct company. My nickname reflects the state I billed from. I was part of a stable towards the end of my run in which I won my only gold.

Just a guess, since I ain't googling:

Fritz Von Erich?

Angelo Poffo for the first one? No idea on connection with the wrestlers, but think he used a neckbreaker as a finisher and thought of Rick Rude

Correct boy wonder!

Big Dick Dudley and Viscera both used the Two Handed Choke Bomb. Dudley, Taz, Striker and Demott were all trained by Johnny Rodz

Gonna go with the nickname state thing and defunct company hints and say Amish Roadkill because that was a hilarious gimmick. Then again obscure movie star? Meh.

Nope and.nope

Something easy to get this to the top of the page:

Who was the first wrestler to be put in a body bag by The Undertaker?

Point of clarification: Do you mean actually enclosing the wrestler inside the body bag to win, or just simply placing them in it?

I just downloaded the 2K15 DLC Showcase stories and played a body bag match from, I think, '91, so my guess is Ultimate Warrior.

I shall not clarify because fuck you, nitpicker.

Not Ultimate Warrior.

Also, since Gertner's online, we could use a hint for yours.

Bobby Jaggers?

Dutch Mantel(l)?

Nope.

He won the title in WCW in the dying days of the company.

Haha that would be my idol Rock and Roll Buck Zumhofe

Winner!

I was wondering what hints I'd give if noone knew the answer. "Fucked his daughter" would make this too obvious.

I kept focusing on ECW for some reason. I know the dying days of WCW all too well.

Corporal Cajun!

Though to be fair I don't even know if he won the tag belt, but it makes sense.

Correct

Tracey Smothers.

Corporal Cajun/Lash Leroux is correct

What does he have in common with Lawler, btw?

Both are cartoon artists, which is what Leroux did after retiring from wrestling.

Oh, I knew about Leroux, didn't know Lawler drew, too.

Just a simple one...

This second generation star did what Kevin Owens couldn't do in his (the star in question, not Owens) televised WWE debut match.

Who is it, and what did he do that Kevin Owens didn't do.

Hints in the spoilers, if you need them.

Was thinking of the old, rather obscure Kansas Jayhawks tag team.

Carlito defeated John Cena for the US title (2004 on SmackDown!)?

Either way, right or wrong, I still definitely remember that.

He also defeated Shelton in his RAW debut for the IC title.

I'm pretty sure the answer was Carlito, so you got it, DAMNiNATOR.

Now ask a question.

Who did MVP defeat in 2009 to finally break his notorious long losing streak?

A wild guess: Santino?

No, not Santino. That may have bedn early I the storyline where he portrayed his "twin sister", Santina. I know a lot of that whole story took place in '09, but nope.

Sorry.

Ok, I googled the answer and it surprised me.

Someone please answer this and let's move on.

<font color=goldenrod>Big Show. I only remember because Triple H helped him and it seemed kinda lame to not even let him break the streak on his own.</font>

Ok, ask a question!

CORRECT!

<font color=goldenrod>8 different men held the Hardcore Title during WrestleMania 2000 (16).

Name at least 5 of them (without looking)</font> :mad:

Viscera, Crash Holly, Bob Holly, Taz, and Raven?

One of my picks was wrong :/

<font color=goldenrod>Yep, one wrong. And fair play for not saying which one was wrong.</font> :y:

Stevie Richards, Bob Holly, Crash Holly, Steve Blackman and errr Test?

Oh. He only had one wrong? I had no idea half these guys were signed with WWF in 2000 heh.

:'(<font color=goldenrod> lol most of the ones you listed weren't even in the match</font>

I was pretty much listing the lower midcard roster of WWF Wrestemania 2000 for N64.

I really have no idea, so it's just guessing.

Wasn't Bob Holly meant to win the title at the end, but the timing was off and Crash retained?

<font color=goldenrod>It was the reverse of that. Crash was meant to Houdini his way out of the seemingly impossible odds as he normally does.

It's been rumored that Bob purposely timed it so that he'd walk out with the belt in what would appear to be a blown spot. But that's probably just a typical Internet "oh man that Bob Holly is a real asshole" myth.</font>

<font color=goldenrod>Correct!

Actually I just realized my initial question had 8 when it should have been 9. As Tazz, Viscera, and The Holly Cousins all had the belt during that match, too.</font>

Ha. Bob going into business for himself. Like that time he definitely sandbagged Lesnar on purpose to expose what a wimp that Brock is by breaking his own neck.

Hardcore Holly never got revenge for being betrayed by Cody Rhodes. For such a tough and hardcore guy, that doesn't make much sense. Bring back Bob to battle that weirdo Stardust in the main event of SummerSlam Kickoff.

<font color=goldenrod>Hardcore Holly felt like someone who would be a lifer. But then again I also thought the same way about Funaki and Val Venis. Every low/lower-midcarder has an expiration date.</font>

Was going to post about how much I loved Funaki. To be fair, I think he chose to leave the WWE due to neck problems. And he recently was used to help climatize Hideo Itami and even appeared on television.

I really want Funaki to be included in a WWE video game and be super-powered for some reason.
