WWE Global Warning Tour: Melbourne/WWE Raw (8/19/02)/WWE SmackDown! (8/22/02) Live Watch Along

[Ricky Smarks]

They used Shoot names?

 

[Ricky Smarks]

And do you mean Confidential?

 

[Chris]

Nothing says America like a former heroin addict and a man who broke all lucha libre rules to put a mask back on

 

[Chris]

Yes I mean Confidential

To be fair the WCW booking team broke lucha rules to take it off him in the first place

 

[Chris]

And idk I think they used shoot names every now and then, but I meant breaking kayfabe bc they talk about wrestling being scripted on the show

 

[Ricky Smarks]

If this was the 80s, someone would have murdered Rey for putting the mask back on.

 

[O-Blaze]

I kind of miss this Rey theme tbh

You can take the mask off. They do it all the time. The breakage is from trying to put it back on. Which this isn't even the first time. He tried to lose his mask a second time for a Mexican show and they wouldn't let him.

 

[Chris]

I always preferred it to Booyaka tbh

The lucha tribunal heard about this, and the unmasking was illegitimate

 

[Sky]

Because it wasn't put up in a true Lucha de Apuestas and it was against his will even in storyline

 

[O-Blaze]

Tazz

 

[Chris]

Willie Nelson

 

[O-Blaze]

Cole and Tazz aren't actually at the show, are they?
