Lets keep it real here, Paul never had any swag when you compare him to the rest of the Kliq. All Paul was, was their bag boy and driver for them as he wasnt a partier, while they all got fukked up Paul was gettin his Morgan Freeman on the highway. If he did have any swag back then he wouldnt of been fukkin pre-op Chyna :scusthov:


:whoa: Paul had corporate swag. He nutted in the bosses daughter and im pretty darn sure Chyna was his personal trainer. Him smashing her was probably some kind of therapeutic work out routine based off of old world medicine. Cod liver oil aint that great but it heals, im pretty sure her p*ssy had restorative qualities.

Also it's arguable that HBK had the most chemistry with Taker during his illustrious career. The 5 matches they had, 4 were classics and one was a great match.

I watched HIAC 1 for the first time in years this past weekend and my god was that match awesome. CRAZY brutal especially for WWF that era...if you have a dusty finish and the match is still crazy good its a straight 5 star

Vince has corporate swag, Paul doesnt have that.

Plus your time line is off, the period you initially talked about, is when the Kliq was together as a unit which is what the mid 90's, now you switch it up talkin about him nuttin in slut chops Steph when it was just Paul & Walt left and we all know Walt was gettin his heat and was generally high as fukk so Paul was all on his own, so he did what he does best is work his way into a power positions. Not knockin his hustle but when you talk about the Kliq and Swag hes not in the same realm as Hall, Nash, Kid or HBK. Hes the spare tyre in the back of the trunk

Paul may have been off his rocker with Chyna, but he more than made up for it w/ Steph.

Sunny was the star of many of my early fap sessions, one of the hottest women (in her prime) of all time, but early 2000s pre boob job steph is pretty close. She had the bytchy look on lock :wow: :wow: :wow:

Nowadays.....:usure:

but eh, age gets em' all , guy or girl :yeshrug:

The 1998 Royal Rumble main event is probably the wrestling match I've watched the most number of times in my life. It was the first WWF VHS I bought when I was a kid and I watched the fukk out of it. It feels like only yesterday :sadbron:

It's a highly underrated match. It gets overshadowed by HIAC (maybe rightfully so, that might be the GOAT wrestling match) but it's almost as good, even though Shawn did his back in halfway through :to:


Shawn, the champion, entering first just so he could sell the Undertakers entrance and act shook when Taker did the "lights on" pyro :wow:

HBK's entrance in general was just awesome, his best of the DX era (studio version >>> DX band live) with JR and King putting him over with some lines that stick in my memory 'til this day. "Shawn Michaels record in main events is better than John Wayne's in movie shootouts"

The way they teased Undertaker getting hands on Shawn right at the start but Shawn being too quick, ducking and jabbing..

The spot they did right after that where HBK has Undertaker in the corner, gets flung off (bumping perfectly), jumps right back on him, and gets flung off again.

The piledriver on the steps :damn:

The best elbow drop Shawn ever performed.

The heelish stubble Shawn was rocking :ahh:

I could go on brehs :wow: this match was the shyt.

That match was on it's way to being a classic before HBK's back hit the casket :to:

Still a great match, though

I agree with this. HBGOAT was at his absolute best when he was pinballing around for a big guy. Undertaker is probably the best big guy ever as far as working a match. Their styles were just made for each other.

I watched HIAC 1 for the first time in years this past weekend and my god was that match awesome. CRAZY brutal especially for WWF that era...if you have a dusty finish and the match is still crazy good its a straight 5 star

And this match is the best example of that pinball style ever. Just a godly performance, maybe the single best performance I've ever seen a wrestler give.

When HBK hits him with the Sweet Chin Music and Taker just sits up, on some Michael Myers, "such is my wrath, that even your finisher can't save you from this ass whoopin' you're about to get :ufdup:" shyt

and Shawn just breaks the fukk out of there... only to get absolutely DESTROYED on the outside

:wow:
