I didn't care for him in the WWF in the 90's but I liked him in WCW.
he'd basically be Roman CorbinIf he was in WWE now people would be saying he's a superstar.

I miss when wrestling used to look like this... you legit can't tell is Meng is assisting on that move or if Adam is just that fukking strong that he can do whatever the fukk he wants with another heavyweight wrestler.
Now a days you can see guys jumping up in eachothers arms and the hesitation between the choreography... the fact that im even calling it choreography should say enough
Wrath was getting over there at the tail end of 1998. There were some points during Nitro, Thunder, or a PPV where he was about to go for that pump handle slam, and he had the crowd standing up and popping for it. He even had a nice little return undefeated streak going on, and his popularity was starting to rise, but then he ran into a barricade named Kevin Nash.
I think we all tend to view what we grew up with using rose colored glasses. I do agree with you that wrestling is more blatantly choreographed today, but there were a ton of bad botches & bad wrestling back then as a result of these mufukkas having poor planning. The in-ring wrestling just evolved to be safer.
