You Ever Retroactively Stan A Wrestler?

[Beautiful Bobby Eatin]

All the time.

I went from thinking Terry Funk was a crazy hardcore wrestler to discovering he was God

Same. Came in to post this. You put me on this year breh

I didn't pay her much attention at the time but.....Blue Pants

Blue Pants had something that 99% of the new generation completely lacks...not sure what that 'something' is but she had it

 

[Rarely-Wrong Liggins]

What is this Blue Pants?

 

[Mr. Negative]

New Japan. The whole promotion.

Hayabusa is my guy because of retroactive stanning. Dude had it all. High flying, power, and mat work. Plus he had an all time great look, dude was just cool as shyt. RIP to the Dream Fighter

 

[KatieGotAzzHairs]

Pillman. Never got to see him because he was dead by the time I got into wrestling. Hope his kid turns out to be something.

Bret Hart and Owen Hart. Owen died like the month I got into wrestling, and Hitman got his career ended that same year. Jeez, Bret's a stronger man than I am to go through what he's been through all these years.

And TSC's fav....
Jeff Jarett


Unlike OP I like HHH a loooooottttt less than I did back then for reasons ppl mentioned on the first page. Reverse stanning?

Jeff Jarrett and the Nasty Boys. Mainly because so many other wrestling fans hate them, it makes me appreciate their natural heelishness. I remember some random thread in TSC and nikkas was straight "fukk the Nasty Boys ". Jeff is such a cornball that I just appreciate it for comedy.

nikkas hate The Nasties??!! Even with the GOAT entrance music...



They still hate? Unmanly behavior of brehs.

Double J's cornball act is great, even as Don't Piss Me Off woman beating Jarrett.

Man, those old FMW DVDs put on to him. That theme was great too.

 

[BrehWyatt]

Masahiro Chono, for starters.

Nick Bockwinkel

Hell of an in ring worker. Loved his promos because he was a sly heel, who didn't need to scream and get so animated/over the top to shyt on you. Sophisticated heel

Most of the footage that's out there of Bock is him in his mid 40s to mid 50s and dude was beasting

 

[Bonefan32]

Yeah, dude was super fukked up with all the shyt he did to Al Snow & Big Show

I wish that letter he wrote to big show promo was on youtube

Big GOATman

Salute to the people mentioning Funk

I love watching old Terry Funk matches & promos, to me he's the GOAT

funk>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Flair

 

[Hey_zeus]

Yep. Jumbo is GOAT
Ditch site in conjunction with Touken Retsuden helped me go through the Choshu Invasion, Tenryu level up, and the Old Gen Army vs Misawa and friends. Saw him go from loyal defender, scorned face, to grumpy b*stard in all his glory.
