Jesse's Axl Rose comments from Wrestlemania VI. I think he said Robert Goulet reminded him of Axl. They are two total opposites. Plus Gorilla had no idea who Axl was. And it seemed to make Gorilla look foolish he didn't know so he tried very badly to pretend he did. There was only like a 10-12 age year difference between the two but it felt like 20-30 years. Coliseum cut out most of what Jesse said (because they cut out Goulet) so it seemed even more awkward on the VHS. I liked Jesse and Gorilla better but if there was a pop culture reference, Gorilla did better with Bobby. I'm pretty sure Jesse just said that to mess with Gorilla and either Gorilla didn't or likely being a Frank Sinatra kind of guy and not being into modern Rock, Gorilla probably refused to acknowledge Axl. Granted Gorilla had his fair share of irrational comments. I remember watching an Owen Hart match where he talks about extraneous circumstances that allowed Owen to win. Ted DiBiase on commentary likely actually puzzled asks him, "Like what?" and Gorilla just goes, "You know what I mean". Gorilla likely forgot Owen won clean and realized it during the match. As a broadcaster myself, I can tell you sometimes you say something that makes sense in your head but to no one else. I love Gorilla, but he seemed so lost a lot of the times that he did commentary.

'The Million Dollar Man' Ted Dibiase. Next up is either Bobby 'The Brain' Heenan, The Ultimate Warrior, 'Macho Man' Randy Savage, Jake Roberts or 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin. I could also throw in Hogan and Andre, too.
Outside of WWWF/WWF/WWE history, it's Gorgeous George and its not even close. He was the blueprint of every smarmy heel in the business since he left.

Perhaps a controversial one Jefferson was a much better neighbour than Steve on Married With Children. Not controversial at all. Steve completely changed the series from a family driven dramady, into a slapstick sci-fi comedic farce. Steve completely overtook the show.

Why do directors put up with actors refusing to get into character? I mean, if I was a director and the guy I heard to be Lex Luther was refusing to go bald, I'd tell him to sling his hook and give the multi-million dollar paycheck to someone else. There's always another talented and popular actor out there. I think back then, some actors were more important than the movie. If a star was on the poster, that could sell more tickets than any plot or special effect. Now, not so much.

It has to be 3. The spectacle and legend behind Wrestlemania 3 was able to carry WWF through some of those later WrestleManias that were rough to watch. No matter how bad the quality, they could always put that up on a highlight reel to sell the next WrestleMania. Absolutely. As much as I like it, Wrestlemania 4 was, by most accounts.. shit. Then there is 7, 9, 11, 12 (to an extent), and 13 that are all kinda meh. None of those lived up to 3, or even 6. However, yeah I think 3 had such weight to it that it could still help sell the idea that the next Wrestlemania was going to be huge. To be fair to the WWF...they treated Saturday Night's Main Event more like WrestleMania than WrestleMania itself.

Where’s the “Good lord hopefully none of them” option? Reality.

iirc Vader's assets are in War Zone's create a character but he isn't on the roster proper. To be fair to me, I had no intention of ever creating a wrestler to look like him, so it's no big deal.

Speaking of this whole thing and 2K24 a really loud subsection of this game's discourse is people refusing to shut the f*** up about Brock only being in Showcase. Like, his moves are in, his entrance is in, if you really want to play as the creep that badly just download one. For further reading, see "Vader, WWF War Zone."

So, Rocko, Xanta Klaus, Saturn, and the DOA (couldnt find an analogue for the bearded guy)? Bearded guy is David Crosby Bearded guy is David Crosby It's actually John Swartzwelder, the famously reclusive Simpsons writer they would throw into the background occasionally as a joke.

I’ve been thinking a lot about the human brain. Are you pondering what I'm pondering?

I'm assuming that they do now. BTW, I can't wait until they upload this to the network. Two, are said drugs the reason why the microphone looks so small and his hands look so large? I mean, that's a comically tiny microphone.

Bobby Heenan was allegedly drunk during Hog Wild 96, but I can't hear it.
