>>17824614I don't know man. As far fetched it seems now that those two had fetish for that type of old timey beer gut big man wrestler in that day and age in retrospective of what actually got over, there's always been an emphasis of hiring guys that can shoot as in shoot wrestle most average joes, and not shoot as in shoot fist fight.
We still talking about a dude that was hired with big money and packaged like he was going to be main event contender at the very least going straight down the drain because he couldn't take a real punch.
Whether it's all just a one big brained kayfabe script or things as they happened, it's still a miserable series of events and poorly done. Nobody got over, nothing good came out of it, fans thought it was shit when it happened and what came out of it.
And btw, it's funny to me that neither Jim or Jim neither acknowledges that Dr.Death is a reference to Joseph Mengele but both had their pearls clutched over Ludvig Borga tattoos. In alternative timeline they'd be squirming at why they backed up someone using that name was put over by them but as it stands in this one Dr.Death is mostly only remembered for the Brawl for all and "could have been".
