Here's the Taz one I was talking about earlier, hes actually the Tasmaniac here: Here he is with Kevin Sullivan and Mongolian Stomper, New Wave Wrestling, August '92. I would have marked out hard for a stable like this: A couple other versions: (^^^Lol at the flip-flops) And finally here he is earlier in his career as Kid Krush, 1990: This post was inspired by Taz's appearance on Art of Wrestling.

I imagine Dynamite's mustache was a Mr. Burns/Don Mattingly moment for Vince.

Did Stone Cold ever rock red leg braces in 2001? I tend to not watch invasion era stuff but I had an action figure of his where he had red leg braces and I also have this really fuzzymemory of seeing a picture of them.

While I'm sure to most of us this is familiar but to the average fan they would have never seen Vader in full black mask: I saw this one in a video game recently. Saturday Night Slam Masters is NOT a recent video game. The model for Alexander the Grater is loosely based on this attire. Same can be said for Raiden in the Fatal Fury game series.

Same can be said for Raiden in the Fatal Fury game series. 1) He didn't say the game was recent, just that he saw it recently. Some of us play old games. 2) Alexander the Grater in SNSM was based on Vader, but not this full black mask version. He was maskless (excluding his entrance helmet. 3) Raiden from SNK was based on Vader in general. The full mask was only one of his Vader-style attires. He also fought without it, looking far closer to WCW-era Vader, as "Big Bear".

Vampiro as Vampiro Casanova in CMLL: Again this could be one that more knowledgeable fans know (I've never seen it myself) but your average fan wouldn't recognise him. I think the face paint look was a wise choice!

Despite Jericho confirming years ago that story was bullshit?

Despite Jericho confirming years ago that story was bullshit? He talked about how he saw wrestling when he was younger but was into Hockey and got into other things and was bodyguard of Milli Vanilli and once that blew up he wanted to wrestle again and he was told either go to Mexico, Japan or Memphis. He spoke vividly about hearing Demolition music is what made him want to try wrestling again. He chose Mexico and basically said he got to Mexico and was supposed to be a jobber but the women loved him and that propelled him up the card despite him having no business being in that position. His look is what made him stand out because of the rock scene and he got put into the main event. He partied got into drugs and all types of other stuff before reaching WCW.
