My roomie and I both being over 50 gals who watched mid to late 80s WWF, we both have a unique problem. Every time Matt or Akbar on Ninha Warrior namedrop the "Crank it Up" obstacle, Cathy and I both instinctively sing "Blow it out! Rev it up! Let's Party Down!" like the Jimmy Hart marks we are.

There are folks who really just need a reality check with this - he abused her violently and the descriptions of Vince wanting to see who can "rip her open the farthest" are among the most disgusting things I've ever seen in my life and it's abundantly clear that Vince is sick
Anyone stanning for Vince McMahon needs to read the Observer and the beating he inflicted on Janel Grant and if you still want Vince back or lionize him, seek therapy - seriously, do so. It can be free through some work programs and truly does help with mental health problems
And this isn't news - in the '80s, there were hints of things being a bit off with the muscle-worshipping of Atlas and Orndorff, then the '90s had the WBF and the '00s just had non-stop misogyny with the Trish bit being something that should have gotten them cancelled on TV
Im not sure any wrestler gave more of their body to wrestling than Mick Foley. Paul Orndorff absolutely devastated Foley’s body in a falls count anywhere match against Cactus Jack at SuperBrawl 3. My body hurts after watching that shit.

Five years ago today, the wrestling world lost a true legend; “Mr. Wonderful” Paul Orndorff died at the age of 71 after a battle with dementia. Rest in Peace, Mr. Wonderful. #WWE #RIP #ProWrestling #WrestlingHistory #wweuniverse #hulkhogan #WCW #wrestler #wrestling #OnThisDay #WWEHOF #restinpeace
Orndorff lost at WM1, turned babyface, got lost in the shuffle, turned heel AGAIN and had the biggest house show of Hogan's career. Nobody got two separate heel runs then. Let alone a more successful one. Heel. Babyface. Out of WWE. Plus, surprisingly great at comedy. An underated legend.

Pleasebury Doughboy ✨@plsburydoughboy.bsky.social · 10mo agoHey everyone I need you to see this picture of a young Curtis Sliwa
When Ray Traylor jumped ship, WCW wanted to capitalize on his gimmick as, to be clear, not a street cop, but a corrections officer called the Big Boss Man So they dubbed him The Boss and had him wear a similar outfit, only all black Vince threatened to sue so they made him a Guardian Angel
Every time I see Sliwa I think of Ray Traylor.
@pgagliardi.bsky.social do I remember correctly that the WWF had a "Guardian Angel" character back in the '90s? I think he was a foil to Big Boss Man maybe? (I could just look it up but it's more fun crowdsourcing.) Anyway, weird alt-right cosplay continues apace
Noah Shachtman@noahshachtman.bsky.social · 2y agoCurtis Sliwa and his Guardian Angel creeps tackled a "migrant shoplifter" live on Sean Hannity's Fox News program last night. Turns out, the guy was "just a pest trying to disrupt filming." nypost.com/2024/02/07/m...
Sliwa's biggest career achievement was inspiring one of the dumbest gimmicks in World Championship Wrestling.
The only Guardian Angel anyone should ever vote for is 94 WCW Big Boss Man
Many of you may be too young to remember when the Big Boss Man moved to WCW. He couldn't go by "The Boss," so his gimmick became "Guardian Angel."

Sting! Got mad at Cactus Jack! (Mikey: He knocked your teeth out!) VADER! Got mad at cactus Jack! (Mikey: And ripped your ear off!)
I wrote about eight Cactus Jack/Big Van Vader matches yesterday, including the ear one and the tag team ones and all I can say is that I hope there’s fancam footage of their WWF ones somewhere. www.bigeggwrestling.com/every-cactus...

Wow, that was an interesting moment when a special referee essentially cost The Nasty Boys the WCW Tag Team Championship. After a fast count, Cactus Jack and Kevin Sullivan were allowed to win the titles in the Falls Count Anywhere Match. #WCWVault #WCWSlamboree
5/22/1994 Cactus Jack & Kevin Sullivan defeated The Nasty Boys in a Broad Street Bully Match to become the new WCW World Tag Team Champions at Slamboree from the Philadelphia Civic Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. #WCW #Slamboree #CactusJack #MickFoley #KevinSullivan #TheNastyBoys
Cactus Jack & Kevin Sullivan vs Nasty Boys (WCW Slamboree 05/22/94) Slamboree 94 was one of the first wcw tapes I ever bought(shout out media play). This match ruled just an all out clusterfuck and my first introduction to Foley. Mania X has two of Mt favorites ever but this is hard to beat
