>>18002208 (OP)
Mero is Jewish btw

>>18002337
Southerns are zesty af

>>18002363
I swear I saw an interview where he said he went on Arsenio Hall and Hall asked him when he was going to win the title "for all the brothas" people thought he really was black.

>>18002371
Shut the fuck up, yankee

>>18002418
he's not? i thought maybe he was one of those grievence-collecting black jews

>>18002208 (OP)
He looks like if Robert Zadar fell asleep in a tanning bed after visiting a Turkish barbershop

>>18002418
>>18002432
Johnny B. Badd is black. Marc Mero isn't.

>>18002363
>>18002445
damn even in the early 90's they were getting away with crazy shit

>>18002418
>>18002432
Nah hes not even dark, how the fuck did he manage a tan like that

same ppv with this funny bit btw. cactus jack also fumbles a crazy sunset flip onto the concrete

>>18002208 (OP)
>I'M SUPER! THANKS FOR ASKING!

>>18002432
His grandfather changed the family name from Merowitz to Mero, probably to blend in with the Italians in whatever area he moved to.

Reminder that multiple people in high level positions have said JBB was Vince McMahons favorite wrestler and that he would constantly seethe in booking meetings saying things like "If only I had a Johnny B Badd on my roster"

his gimmick was he was zesty but for some reason the women in the crowd all go crazy for him. like one of the PPV's I watched the crowd of women just start screaming when he does his entrance

I don't get it at all

>>18002208 (OP)
I don't recall Mark Mero being black...

>>18002208 (OP)
Jewish

>>18002208 (OP)
Loved that guy.

>>18002224
>>18002230
When I was a kid, I saw that this dude was a good guy, fans cheered him, but I was like "this black faggot is the anti-christ". But I did like the gimmick, ngl.

>>18002208 (OP)
Brought into deep south WCW as a heel with zesty tendencies, but actually got over because early 90s WCW 80% of the gimmicks were some variation of boring cowboys and people were just happy to see somebody different

>>18002456
Minstrelsy is an artform

>>18002213
This.
Brock Lesnar got Johnny B. Badd's sloppy seconds. Let that sink in.

>>18003745
she downgraded

>>18002418
not only that, but he was on a BET show that was about being a black wrestler. if he was any other ethnicity he’d be retroactively canceled

>>18002820
i wish i was queer so i could get chicks

>>18003000
>anti-Christ

>>18002224
I shoot thought it was him from the catalog thumbnail KEK

>>18002467
he spoke at my school I was more over than marc mero

>>18002208 (OP)
Just a Jew doing blackface. It's a classic comedy trope.

>>18002208 (OP)
Semen B Goode

>>18002208 (OP)
it's called an italian. scientists speculate that they may be closely related to homo sapiens.

>>18002813
kek

>>18002208 (OP)
Holy shit, what gimmick is this? Mero was decent enough overall but ive never ever seen this.

>>18005109
He was just doing a Little Richard impression. I think it was a Dusty idea. Apparently Vince thought this was a brilliant gimmick and is one of the reasons he hired Mero (the other being Sable).

>>18005116
why did he make him do a boxer gimmick then?

>>18002820
Zesty niggas will always draw the femcels

>>18003745
>>18003764
Peak Sable got Peak Lesnar, the Great Ubersmech was superior to mero's kike genes

>>18005128
Because Russo was booking by then, and was trying to get away from the lame gimmicks.

>>18005337
Nice cope Lesnar.

>>18002371
>>18002337
>It was women buying those calenders trust me bro!

>>18003745
and she was fuckin hideous to begin with. also wcw fuckin sucks

>>18005869
>>>nice cope
>Great White Lesnar became a legend Inside and outside the ring
>Mero was forgotten the moment he left WWF and no one liked him either, only Sable, even if she sucked at wrestling.
>His daughter won yesterday the NCAA olympic finals
>His son is learning wraslin and even salutes kids who beats his kid so he is humble too
Lesnar won and now he looks like Ysgramor.

>>18005899
>Great White Lesnar
>Left a woman in her prime for a woman already past her expiration date
>Produced a literal ogress of a daughter and a son who's just as short as she is
>Small dick according to Terri "Toilet Paper" Runnels
Keep on coping Brock.

I lived to see trannies shiling marc mero
Shilling for WCW and AEW is a mental disease by now

his feud with DDP was based

>>18002208 (OP)
WCW was ran by a gay man named Jim Barnett. He played out his gay fantasies through wrestling. Most likely had sex with many of the talent.

>>18005337
When men marry older women it is because they are gay. It’s called a beard.

>>18002208 (OP)
>this nigga hating on based jonny be badd

absolutely fucking disgusting
maybe AEW is more up your alley

Steiner called him out for being a make-up wearing fag.

>>18006244
scott looking like hes hailing from dunkin donuts there

>>18002208 (OP)
This promo with him and Raven (as Scotty Flamingo) is hilarious. It's just two gigafags trying to outfag eachother.

>>18006330
This promo

>>18006207
But enough talking about all of the gAyEW roster rn bitchtits

>>18003000
woah! how could you have been so young and so heckin based!?

>>18002208 (OP)
Fun fact: Brian Pillman infamously broke character (he was playing a goody two shoes baby-face when in truth he was a surly mean spirited fuck boy) at the Great American Bash '91 and called Johnny B Bad a faggot, during his ring entrance.

Ever since WWE bought WCW, they've cut the audio from the entire intro of the match to hide Pillman calling Bad a faggot while putting up a BS "the master tape was "damaged" so some audio "was lost", so please don't mind the missing audio in certain spots" excuse for censoring it.

>>18002813
I was about to say this lol. Funny to think he was one of Vince's shoot favorite gimmicks. Not even as a rib, but he unironically loved the gimmick, and got pissed he wasn't allowed to use it in the WWF.

>>18006165
Sounds like Vince McMahon

>>18006338
Two jews trooning out btw

>>18006338
Wild they were able to do this gay shit in a southern promotion and not get lynched

>>18003931
mark

>>18005964
Nah, Mya's cute.

>>18007313
This

>>18007337
You realize this was the mid-1990s and WCW was about as much of a Southern promotion as AEW or NXT.

>>18007783
It was the very early 90s and all of their shows were held in the south

>>18007028
I think pic rel is still on Netflix but bleeped out.
WWF seemingly took it quite seriously, they made a point of having Goldist with Marlena and telling viewers "that's his wife ok he's not gay".

>>18003805
Based Bloodhound Gang anon.

>>18008276
This one is around on yt, dunno if you can just search it out directly but it is in vwrious videos un edited. Its just that wacky memphis promo style.

>>18007028
Can the footage be found anywhere

>>18002430
>t.zesty southern

>>18005184
>That Diamond Studd is out there! It can't be bargained with. It can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop... ever, until you are gaped!

>>18002208 (OP)
threads like this should make up the majority of /pw/ but they do not

>>18008481
Before the console wars /asp/ was the funniest board on 4chan

>>18008481
i love making images from shit as i watch along. i'd like to do gifs and webbums too but i dont know how

>>18008581
forgot pic

>>18008481
current wrestling must be hot if threads like these are fewer

>>18008549
yea, even when the console wars were between njpw/wwe they were pretty lighthearted, and smack/raw was a fun rivalry too

>>18007375
Hi Mya

>>18008276
I think "Hey I'm actually straight, I just act gay to mess with my opponents" that was part of his face turn

>>18006154
Their match at Halloween Havoc '95 was fantastic.

>>18008336
kino

>>18006154
Yep. Say what you want about Mero, but he improved rapidly in a short window of time to the point where he was having outstanding matches with DDP before the end of his WCW run. They always had him in the opening match of ppvs because they knew they could trust him to get the crowd going.

looks like a buff version of Little Richard

>>18005128
Mero's knee was fucked and he couldn't do the high flying stuff anymore. Him being out, then Sable getting massively over while he was out, then his knee being fucked meaning he couldn't do his cool stuff. On top of it he was too nice for his own good I guess because he agreed to get powerbombed by Sable which yeah helped get her more over but destroyed his credibility to the point Austin refused to work a feud with him because he'd instantly became a loser.

Didn't really matter, his body was fucked which is partly why he left. Outside of a short run in TNA in like 2004 and I think XWF before that he pretty much never really wrestled again.

>>18006338
>that ending
Fucking great

>>18008481

Mya was from his previous marriage though?

>>18002479
That looks clean for 1993. WWF camera quality was dogshit in all of the 1990s

>>18008581

going to options make sure to set target size for 4000 and pick strict filesize, if the quality still ends up being shit use the scale video option to make it smaller instead of having ugly artifacting

>>18005964
You dipshit, his daughter is from the woman he was with before Sable. He has 2 sons to Sable.

>>18010895
There is also the fact that Sable became hated by half of the locker room at that time including x-pac shoving poop on a cup in her luggage as a parting gif since she went full bitch at no mercy UK.
Only when she came back during the 2000's and met brock is when she became more humble, but tammy stytch became a monster.
By the way is funny how Debra was twice as hotter than her and the locker room loved her at that time, plus the ton of jealousy she probably had backstage.

>>18011516
And the 2 kids are now learning wrasslin and MMA.

>>18011214
its from 1993 clash of champions

>>18011623
Sable in her prime had a much better face and body than debra, I'll give you debra seemed like a much better person

>>18012696
the fact that she and austin are now in good terms kinda shows that the fuckery was literally stress over both being overworked to oblivion, the bumps and the entire lesnar situation being bult off because of vince and dunn desperate to push him as the UBER WRESLER

>>18008481
This

>>18006165
Jim kept Georgia Championship Wrestling in working in the business aspect. "You're working for me now" Ole didn't know what he was doing.

>>18011245
do any of these makes files from screen capture? i dont actually save anything to my computer to make videos from.
