If he was like the 5th or 7th (Cause...SYXX was SIX no matter what) member of nWo...could he have gotten over as more than just a RIDICULOUS looking hogan lackey?

Dude was a hogal loyalist, and at least looked kinda tough...he was in ridiculous shape at the time for him especially, and it made sense that he was in nWo....they retconned the whole 'bootyman' :scusthov: stuff pretty well.

If they had introduced him earlier, could disciple gotten over?

Is this a real thread?

We are now wondering about Ed Leslie as a star now?

right...like how is this even a question. Of course he was. Now, probably not A+...or even A. But B+ for sure. You're not going to build around him, but Booty on the billboards and posters is gonna help sell them tickets.


Hogan/Butcher at Starrcade 94 drew more than Vader/Flair before it and Savage/Flair after it :mjlol:

They did Hogan/Butcher at Starrcade :mjlol:

He was over as the Booty Man…WCW fukked up by not playing the fact he and hogan went way back and not have him join the nWo sooner..but have him get the beats by the B team..than disappear and show up almost a year later and pretend he's some new wrestler:comeon:

94 hogan DID NOT GIVE A FUKK..he was GETTING his posse paychecks with turner's signature on them with ZERO fear of backlash. LMAO @ tenta and nasty boys getting major time...this could've been called "WCW IN YOUR HOUSE: HULK'D UP"

^ = Hulk'd up
Vader defeated Jim Duggan^ to win the WCW United States Championship
Alex Wright defeated Jean-Paul Levesque
Johnny B. Badd defeated Arn Anderson to retain the WCW World Television Championship
-----Anderson replaced The Honky Tonk Man, who had just left WCW. [he left like a coward cause he knew that hogan was gonna pin him sooner than later]
The Nasty Boys^ (Brian Knobs and Jerry Sags) defeated Harlem Heat (Booker T and Stevie Ray) by disqualification
Mr. T^ defeated Kevin Sullivan
-----T pinned Sullivan....CLEAN...in less than 4 minutes
Stink defeated Avalanche^ by disqualification
-----yes; stink only won over tenta by dq
Hulk Hogan^ defeated The Butcher^ to retain the WCW World Heavyweight Championship (12:07)

Yes; hogan gave ED LESLIE a title shot...and his match went over ten minutes...

basically the '94 version of Hulk's first night at TNA...at WCW's biggest PPV.

surprised Duggan didn't squash Vader. I gotta watch Hulk'd Up today or tomorrow.
