Lex Luger was the one who sold out to Ted Dibiase..and under the Million Dollar Man's guidance, he finally became WWF Champion.

I used G.I. Joes and would work imaginary matches with existing wrestlers. If only you could have seen some of these matches. You can do some amazing things when you throw things like the physical limitations of speed, strength, and stamina out the window. There were no rest holds at my house, damnit they left it all in the ring.

I WISH I had a Funaki toy.
I used to push Vampiro even though I'd seen none of his matches because I thought he had a cool name and the toy had hair made of string.

Kerry Von Erich was the World Champion and Hogan was a jobber. Z-man and Marty Jannetty were tag champs, and (High Energy) Owen Hart was the I.C. Champ. Barry Windham was in the mix , too.

I just had a ton of Stone Cold vs. Ken Shamrock matches, those were the only two I had. I always wanted that match to happen in real life and it never did

Raphael and Jason the Red Power Ranger were my heels as a tag team called "The only way you can tell us apart from our friends is that we wear red" AKA team: TOWYCTUAFOFITWWR.
Of course they turned on each other during the feud against team TOWYCTUAFOFITWWB. Leonardo and Billy.
Barbie was the special guest referee.
...........don't look at me that way! I ran out of toys!

There was a lot of crossovers with other toys, mostly ghostbusters. Ecto 1 was used in my version of casket matches (later ripped off by WWE with the ambulance match). I used the footballer to fued with Bam Bam Bigelow. The cop as a rubbish big boss man (until I got a real one). WWE also ripped off my zombie.

I had the NKWF (New Kevin Wrestling Federation....since I had already done the KWF as drawn imaginary wrestlers)
They were all Hasbro action figures. I tried to be imaginative but used similar storylines to WWE where Hogan and Warrior were top faces and Macho King, Million Dollar Man, Piper were top heels.
I used other toys as managers, commentators, and show hosts. An LJN Big John Studd managed Hogan. It looked funny for a huge LJN figure to be managing a much smaller Hasbro figure. I used a Penguin figure as a Mr. Fuji type called Master Blaster to manage Demolition. I painted a Miss Yvonne (PeeWee's Playhouse) to be Sensational Sherri. Clawful and Extendoman from Masters of Universe were my commentators. I used a Bogglin figure in the Hordak Fright Zone playset as "Brother Slug." THat Ghostbusters police officer mentioned above was the Big Bossman's manager.
I did Pay Per Views, most notably WrestleManias where I would set up an arena using the ping pong table downstairs. I would use GI Joes as the audience members and they would hold wrestler trading cards as posters. 2x4s were guardrails. I would make aisles leading to the ring and the talkshows. (Brother Slug show, Piper's Pit)
I also wrote and drew the NKWF magazine in notebooks. My tv tapings were called Saturday Special. I would do vignettes for upcoming wrestlers. For some reason I changed Skinner's name to Gator Johnson and had him use a crocodile from an old GI Joe figure. I took pictures of him in a puddle in the backyard.
One of my original characters was the Executioner. He was basically the Undertaker's character. I had two Smash figures so I covered his face with the black Demolition mask, used a purple cape from a Masters of the Universe Skeleglow figure and Trap Jaw's green belt. HIs manager was Blade from Masters of the Universe movie. I made a guillotine out of balsa wood and metal and he tried to cut Brutus Beefcake's head off at a tv taping.
I also used a Terminator 2 figure of Arnold as "Tower." He was basically Diesel's character. He was taller than the other wrestlers and elevated to the top of the card in no time. His arms were slightly bent and could do a sweet powerbomb. He injured Andre the Giant and sent him out of the federation. Then he challenged Hogan for the title at my last event ever, WrestleMania 5.

I had two Kurt Angle toys. So, I called one of them Eric Angle, Kurt's brother.
Also, Jeff Hardy lost his head after receiving a big boot from the Undertaker.

I had wrestling feds everywhere: GI Joes, LJN figures (Superstar Wrestling Federation, Wrestling USA, WWF), Acclaim figures, MUSCLE guys.
My brother got pissed because Storm Shadow broke Quick Kick's leg right off with a figure four. Roadblock was my cornerstone of the GI Joes. He looked like a bad-ass. He was in a regular tag team with Alpine. I turned the Fridge heel because he had that chain-mail football. (Remember they had a William Perry GI Joe? I had one. Be jealous.)
Casey Jones was the father of hard-core, with that golf bag of weapons. He never won because somebody would steal his stuff and use it against him. I had a Foot Soldier team with Virgil and they held the tag titles 4 times.
I used Legos for tables and ladders, old pill bottles for trash cans, string and a jingle bell for a bull rope, and the Karate Kid's breakaway board for plunder.
For the MUSCLE guys, I had one of them bust another guy's head right off with a clothesline. Talk about a feud starter!

That reminds me of how the abdominal band that held GI Joes together would break. Where was JR when I needed him? BAH GAWD HE'S BROKEN IN HALF!!!

I remember I had a miniature Ken from Street Fighters action figure, and with was tag champs with Tentomon. Man, they went over everyone, Angemon and Golem, Lapras and the Red Zeo Ranger, and even the Blue Space Ranger and the Blue Zeo Ranger, they were unbeatable. The I got the miniature Ryu, then the team went to hell and Ken betrayed Tentomon and teamed up wtih Ryu...only to turn on him and beat Cable from X-Men for the WWF title. Yep, I had the WWF Winged Eagle Belt as a kid, the big one, not toy sized.
Lord Zedd was the GM/Authority Figure, while Austin was the rebel that would try to outfox him for control of the company. Didn't have many girl dolls, but I'd sometimes take my sister's old Barbies and use them for naked water matches.
I was pretty into cars as well, so I used them to set up my ring on my bed, then I used anything that came with my toys as illegal weapons. Like I had a match for the IC title with The Riddler vs Blight from Batman Beyond, and Riddler hit Blight with the Blue Space Ranger's board. Did all the commentary myself, like OH MY GOD RIDDLER'S GOT THE BOARD OH THE HUMANITY SOMEBODY STOP THIS!

I grew up with Jakks TTL figures in 2000-2001 but I had a couple bone-crushing figures (Al Snow, Shawn Michaels) and some WCW figures (Jarrett, Hart, Sting, Hall, Nash). My fed was the World Wrestling Federation although it had a plethora of belts including WCW titles that I printed off from the internet and pasted onto my extra Hardcore Titles.
I made a backstage locker-room which was filled with luggage and other accessories my figures came with. I even wrote their names and personalized some lockers (Jarrett's had his guitar). I had the commentary team of JR and...I can't remember. But they had their headsets and full announce table with monitors and WWF logo. There was a breakaway Spanish announcers table too. My sister's Britney Spears figure subbed for Lillian Garcia and she sat at ringisde.
Storylines were all depend on my latest figure. For example, when I got a Hogan figure he immediatley won the WWF title and reformed the nWo. I mostly just remember giving Perry Saturn a legit Intercontinental Title run.
s*** man, I wanna go set my arena up again!

Wacko from the Animaniacs was always my champion and he did the stunner. His main rival was Woody from Toy Story.

I never had wrestling action figures, so I just used GI Joes and those Corps! figures. Had a lot of fun with them, too.

I grew up with the Hasbro figures to start. I had a slew of them, almost every one. I know I lacked Owen Hart, The Nasty Boys, Dusty Rhodes, Nailz, "Kona" Crush, and the Smoking Gunns. Anyhow, I only had one belt (the one that came with the blue ring), so it was the WWF World Title, the rest of the belts were the WCW belts that came with the Galoob figures. You know, the hard plastic ones that hurt like hell when you got hit by one? I painted those belts with gold spraypaint and used black fine-point markers to draw my own designs. My fed was always the WWF, though I used the WCW ones as well (had all of those, except the UK ones). I can recall a few of my storylines: This guy was in the fed for a long time, until one of his legs was pulled out of the socket by the debuting Yokozuna. I called him "The Ninja Turtle". How original, right? His belt got re-painted as soon as the figure was bought. Pretty sure I had another one of the belts that came with him that I traded a friend a duplicate wrestling figure I had got at Christmas. This figure was known as Boris. Why Boris? I have no clue. He looked like a Boris to me, I guess. His finisher was the Rhino Headbutt, naturally, since the figure's 2nd head spun out of it's body. He beat Hacksaw Jim Duggan once in a 16-man tournament to determine the new World Champ after my dog chewed up the Ultimate Warrior (the one that did the gorilla press, with the white trunks). Virgil and the Texas Tornado were a big tag team in my federation. They won the belts from The Hart Foundation (I re-painted the Jim Neidhart figure). Here's a good site (with lots of pics, including testshots, etc.) for reference. www.wrestlingfigs.com/figurelist1.php

Leonardo, Michaelangelo, Rapheal and Usagi Yujumbo (The White Bunny from the Ninja Turtles cartoon) were my version of the 4 horseman. Plus Yujumbo doubled as my Shawn Michaels/Sting because he could do a mean super kick and stinger splash.
Shredder's arms were positioned so that he could do a great Tito Santana flying forearm.
