Has "he's never looked better" ever been true?

[mrbananagrabber]

We hear this a LOT. Goldust, RVD and last night Mysterio have all, apparently, never looked better.

I could accept that with Goldust. Dude looks great. Hell, even his make- up looks better now.

But has it ever been true without anyone else?

[Amazing Kitsune]

Rock when he came back. He's twice the man he was in his prime. Literally.

Triple H was in the best shape of his life when he came back from the 2nd torn quad in 2007. He looked really tubby before that but came back shredded.

One of the times Big Show came back--he looked really bad at a certain point of his career.

Boy we really have to verify everything that's said on TV, don't we?

Compare Big Show as ECW Champion to Big Show when he returned to go against Floyd Mayweather at WrestleMania 24. That's an example of it being true.

His 08 return. He had lost like 100lbs or something.

Mark Henry looked great last night, like the same shape he was in 2002.

Yeah but he still never looked better than he did as the Giant or early WWE.

[A damn road sign]

Personally, I've never seen Del Rio look as aggressive as he has lately.

["Gentleman" AJ Powell]

I'd say Goldust definitely. Mizark's looking pretty slender these days too. And Big Show looked much better when he returned to face Mayweather. I do think a lot of that had to do with finally shaving his hair, it was looking awful during his ECW days.

[Essential1]

Goldust is like a whole different person.

This reminds me of Luger back in the 90's, who always seemed to be "in the shape of his life" due to the fact there really wasn't anything else to say about him.

["Gizzark" Mike Wronglevenay]

Did they say it about Foley in 2004? Because that'd be true. He was the lightest he'd been since the 1980s, and in the 80s he often wore terrible ring gear.

[Johnny D]

Slightly OT but Rey HAS looked better...1997 to be exact.

Undertaker WM 28. Christopher Lloyd had never looked better.

See, this is where I disagree. With Goldust, he is in great physical shape, and he is better in the ring that he ever has been.

With the Rock, sure, he physically looks good, but as for his wrestling ability, I think it is half (and that is being generous) what it was before he left. Every match the Rock has had since returning, I can't help feel like he is just going through the motions.

I think Kitsune was making the joke that Rock was f***ing huge and likely to be roided and it meant he looked like shit, but was twice the size.

[Sumbody Gon' Get Dey Kneelift]

Honesty? A lot of the times they say this I agree. Most of the times mentioned, too.

[Push R Truth]

Mark Henry has done it once or twice.
