General Chit-Chat Thread: A New Beginning

[Bobby Barrows]

Sure it couldn't compete with WCW's cruiserweight division, but Jesus Christ there was talent there.

 

[Death By Looch]

That lightweight division wasn't even terrible either, it was just abandoned immediately after forming

Yea... but I'm talking about doing it right

 

[Death By Looch]

Scorpio was on the Roster in 97 still too

 

[Chris]

They did really well getting Taka over at first and putting the division on his back but it just got pushed to the wayside

 

[Chris]

Scorpio lasted to 98 at least, he switched from flash funk and became Scorpio and teamed with Terry Funk for a short time

 

[Bobby Barrows]

Taka Michinoku, Tajiri, Jerry Lynn, Brian Christopher, 2 Cold Scorpio, X-Pac in 1998.

 

[Bobby Barrows]

I'm pretty sure Great Sasuke was a lender from NJPW

 

[Chris]

I think he was Michinoku Pro still so makes even more sense

 

[Death By Looch]

Taka Michinoku, Tajiri, Jerry Lynn, Brian Christopher, 2 Cold Scorpio, X-Pac in 1998.

Scott Taylor aka Scotty 2 Hotty too

 

[Bobby Barrows]

What could have been.

 

[Death By Looch]

Essa Rios came in late 97 as well

 

[Chris]

Kaentai in 98 too, Funaki and Dick Togo

 

[Bobby Barrows]

A lot of talent there.

 

[Chris]

Between that and house of torture, you'd never believe Dick Togo was a fun wrestler to watch at one point

 

[Death By Looch]

Super Crazy had a one-off Saturday Shotgun match in 97 as well
