Awful promos in PS1 wrestling games appreciation thread

[Riley Escobar]

@ Sting (4:55) phoning it in to the max and getting the name of his move wrong

@ Goldberg (4:47) acting like it's a public service video with the head coming up and "Goldberg here"

@ Nash (3:41) being like real life and not wanting to do any work whatsoever

@ Piper (4:33) being the only one to come out of the WCW video with any credit

@ Luger (2:30) looking like Earthworm Jim

@ Bulldog (2:16 onwards) and Faarooq (8:10 onwards) not even bothering to look away from the cuecards for a second

@ Ahmed Johnson (9:50 onwards) being totally incomprehensible

Goldust's promos (12:09 onwards) though, total mindfukk piff

"you failed to guard the back door" :

Mannnnnnnn I forgot all about this stuff, I remember when wartime came out as a kid I was at all these promos, used to know the hbgoat ones by heart

 

[Ed MOTHERFUCKING G]

This shyt and the real titantrons is why i fukked with the psx versions of games....i hated the bootleg ass n64 entrances and no promos

 

[Tommy Fits]

I can't remember where I read this story but maybe it was in Foleys first book. When they were filming these promos, Owen Hart told the producers that Davey Boy was illiterate so the entire time they would read Davey Boy line by line what to say until he flipped and said wtf is going on lol.

""Hell, son, this is Stone Cold Steve Austin. The best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be, and can't nobody tell me different!!!"

 

[I-Hate-You]

[MercuryHayes]

Never understood why sports games STOPPED the highlight reel intros. Them joints always had me hype..PS1 was the shyt.

 

[CBSkyline]

Stone Cold just jumped right into it and started dropping quotable lines

At 10:54 it sounds like Ahmed said "Get fukking ready"
