Why isn't this remembered as much and seen as more impressive than Hogan body slamming Andre the Giant? A Powerbomb on a 300 pound guy is way harder to do

>on a 300 pound guy

Kevin G. Nash is supposed to be a giant so the achievement isn’t really there. They’re in the same category despite The Giant being heavier. Hogan’s obviously a tall guy but he’s never been billed as a giant or whatever

>>18769514 (OP)
So you don’t know?

>>18769514 (OP)
Nashetty didn't have to hold him up, powerbombs aren't really lifts

>>18769514 (OP)
Different time

>>18769514 (OP)
Kevin Nash killed WCW.

Didn't Nash break his back doing this?

Well maybe Nash should have booked it like that.

Andre getting slammed was only a big thing because WWE consistently pretended that it was, Andre was getting slammed literally all the time.

>>18771286
He's gets his back broken often

>>18769514 (OP)
Paul was insanely athletic when he was in WCW.

>>18771286
he got buck broken in 1992

raped and gaped bitch im afraid

>Nash was billed as a giant himself
>The Giant, Big Show had already jobbed solo many times in recent memory
>Hogan was built as 'the strongest everyman', not a giant.
>Andre was re-built as unstoppable.
>Hogan's promos were all about him picking Andre up

Nash is legit strong
He could of powerbomed Andre

Which is strange, because Hogan was pretty much a giant himself.
Only comes to show you how low wrestling has fallen since.

>>18771286
This is when the stitching in his prolapsed anus popped out

if he didn't botch the next one this would probably be remembered differently

>>18769514 (OP)
because nobody ever gave a fuck about anything nash ever fucking did ever

>>18769514 (OP)
This was more impressive

>>18772988
who was that, scott steiner?

>>18771126
he unironically did
>booked himself to break goldberg's streak
>fingerpoke of doom a couple months later
what credibility of wcw left the company that day

>>18771292
OH NO NO NO NO

IT KEEPS HAPPENING

>>18769514 (OP)
the reason moments like Hogan slamming Andre are “remembered” is because WWE never shuts up about. they’ve been playing that shit in repeat for decades and insisting to us that it was the biggest thing in the history of the sport

>>18769514 (OP)
Because it didnt happen in WWE and most of what you see as "memorable wrestling moments" is just the WWE propaganda machine hyping itself up. there was nothing impressive about Hogan slamming Andre, its just hyped up. this obviously is much more impressive but history is written by the winners and WCW lost

>>18773170
Yes, and it was a hard slam, the giant barely assisted the move.

Nash is like 7 feet tall, he lifted but The Show for the jacknife so he was like 11 feet in the air at best, that shit is impressive af

I’d like to buy a Vowel. Letter A please.

>>18774713
yea him and rick wouldnt have been able to done half the shit they done if they couldn't do something like that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qufylHCQPJQ

>>18774944
ive never seen that assisted top rope ddt before. thats way better than the really convoluted ways teams set up their big moves these days

>>18774944
That DDT from the top rope is fantastic, how come no one is doing it nowadays?

>>18774712
very well said
>>18774754
I’m the first guy you’re replying to and I agree that it was impressive but it’s just the technical aspects of it kek
