Let's Revisit The Rikishki Body Splash Off The Top Of The Cage

[Nintendough]

I remember when they started booking him with the main event level guys, he carried himself well. Its crazy Rikishi was over like rover and couldn't get a short title run yet Not-Great Khali could.

Who was that Ja Rule? I remember thinking the lyrics were way too street for a wrestler

"Go to sleep now
You could wake up
Struggling (AHHHHHHH)"

yeah that's actually ja

I found out years later and was like " damn that dude was everywhere lol"

 

[Metta World Movement]

yeah that's actually ja

I found out years later and was like " damn that dude was everywhere lol"

Don't tell me Vince put Ja on like he put Nicki on with the Victoria theme

 

[Rarely-Wrong Liggins]

No one was laced up in the Rikishi Wear with the P. Miller sneaks?

 

[Jackson LeRoy Briggs]

You know what's sad?

Despite all his cool spots, Rikishi will always be known for stuffing people's faces in his ass.

 

[Heelish]

yeah that's actually ja

always thought it was a sound-alike

Come to find out it's Allen Iverson featuring Ja Rule

 

[So UnThotful]

Thats my samoan who did it for the rock

and just to think vince tried to sabotage kishi with that gimmick to get back at yoko and he flipped it to being one of the more over members of the roster during 99-00 years

never heard this, source?

 

[So UnThotful]

never heard this, source?

it was on of the konnan podcast from awhile back (i googled it but they took it off youtube)

but it only info i got is this

Konnan discussed his relationship with Yokozuna: “Yoko was gangster. I went to L.A. with him once and he was like the godfather of South Central. He was telling me stories about him sneaking drugs through airport security. He was well connected. He was a gangster. I looked up to him a lot. He loved my character in the nWo and we were actually going to get him to come in as a Samoan gangster and have my back.”
Konnan then explains why the former WWF Champion ultimately never joined World Championship Wrestling.
“One time Scott [Hall] was with (Eric) Bischoff and he [said to Yokozuna], ‘Man Bischoff is right here. Let’s make this happen.’ Yoko said, ‘I don’t roll like that. You don’t just put someone on the phone and tell me to sign.’ He got offended and he never came in,” he said.

so i guess cokeboy got wind of that and in return of that gave rikishi the dancing stooge gimmick and the rest is history

 

[Momentum]

Rikishi should have had at least one run with the WWF title back then, dude did have some moments.

hell nah, he was always a mid-card fan favorite. That gimmick could not hold an attitude era title reign.

 

[Mr.Black]

i think hhh should've dropped it to him on that smackdown that they wrestled, he could've gotten it right back at the next ppv or something, kish was kinda protected going into that shyt

 

[Ed MOTHERFUCKING G]

Regardless of how over he was, rikishi should have never had the belt
