1-2-3 Kid…..I was a fan of his quickness, high flying ability, and the fact he was considered an underdog. I thought the name 1-2-3 kid was cool too.

I'm :flabbynsick: so Bad News Brown

My pops was real militant, so he loved seeing him take no shyt and beat up on some cacs

Especially when he lost the royal rumble to the hitman, then beat him up with the trophy

WCW - Tie between Sting and DDP. Crow Sting was the shyt and the way DDP used to straight up end matches with some crazy variation of the Diamond Cutter always had me like OH SNAP!!! :whew:

WWF - Austin. The moment that man won the King of the Ring and cut that promo, that was it for me.

NJPW/AEW - Kenny Omega when he got Kliqued up and joined BC...before a homie had put me on and it was like yo he's pretty good. But when he became The Cleaner that was it for me.

Bryan.
Him putting over Kofi.
Then, finding out the backstage of how intently he wanted to do it.

Honorable mention to him turning heel so effectively with the Planet's Champion bit that he managed to get booed after returning from career-ending injury/retirement barely a couple months earlier. VERY few people can go from so universally beloved to outright booed and back again with no downtime. That's GOAT shyt.

First favorite is Ultimate Warrior. I was like 4 around WM 8 and he seemed like the shyt. The colors, theme music, running entrance was all I needed.

First wrestler I knew was great: Bret Hart. The matches with Bulldog and Perfect just seemed epic to me as a kid. Like movies in the ring.

Honorable Mention: Vader. A heel that felt real. Sting feud felt like Superman vs Doomsday on tv.

Sting was it for me :wow:

Growing up we ain’t have too much money to spare. So I only got a costume for kindergarten cuz my sisters bf at the time copped it for me, trying to get in her guts (she’s way older than me). After that I always wanted to be Sting for Halloween so I did a few days bagging groceries and shyt like that to save up the face paint so I can be Sting. I looked more like a mime but you couldn’t tell me I wasn’t Sting. If I got to meet that nikka I’m sure I would tear up not cuz of him but because I know that kid inside would have died to meet him. Shout out to my nikka Stink.

I can't tell you how Crow Sting was such a huge part of me getting into wrestling heavy
I didn't even know what WWF was until 98 it was all WCW for me
