Guess the wrestler

    Saw this idea on another forum so figured I'd give it a shot here. It's fairly straightforward. You give clues on a particular wrestler and the person who correctly guesses the wrestler starts over. I'll begin:

    - Debuted in 1999.
    - Hometown: Atlanta, Georgia
    - Wrestled in WCW, TNA & WWE
    - Is a cruiserweight. Debuted in WWE in 2005 as a henchman of a certain superstar.

    Who is the wrestler?

    Good idea.

    I don't have a clue though. Everyone that comes in to my head I immediately realise is wrong.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,815 ✭✭✭Charlie


    Super Crazy is the best that I can come up with.


  • Registered Users Posts: 938 ✭✭✭HorseRadish


    Sonny Siaki no?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,042 ✭✭✭✭chopperbyrne


    Tyson Tomko.


  • Registered Users Posts: 950 ✭✭✭nasty_crash

    - Wrestled in WCW, TNA & WWE

    shannon moore?

    -Debuted in 1989
    -Hometown Tampa, Florida
    - Wrestled in WCW, ECW & WWE
    - 6'6


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,815 ✭✭✭Charlie


    wikipedia's profile of James Yun says he debuted in wwe in 2003. Are we sure that that's the right answer. Does it not have to be confirmed by the OP.


  • Registered Users Posts: 950 ✭✭✭nasty_crash


    ops sorry

    my question was shannon moore


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,069 ✭✭✭triple h


    the first question mr nice guy put to us was very very hard. I was thinking the same as charlie mc hugh. how do we know if an answer is right ? maybe the op should say who is right (first) then that person can continue when the right answer is confirmed and post a question.
    this is a good idea mr nice guy, it would be sad to see people lose interest in this thread if it got out of hand.

    Is said wrestler still employed by WWE?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,630 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    Jimmy Yang was the correct answer. Well done nasty_crash as that was quite difficult. He was henchman for Tajiri in 2005 as Akio.

    That's Mike Awesome. The height was a good clue as it's mentioned in the lyrics for his 'awesome bomb' theme in ECW. That was a good one. My go now and I'll try and make it a bit easier. ..

    - Born in Canada
    - Debuted in 1997
    - 6'6
    - Won every major singles title except the world title
    - Was at one point 'immune' from being fired but was fired later on

    Name the wrestler (the last clue is a big clue)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,479 ✭✭✭Stalfos


    I'm gonna have to say Test.

    - home town Greenwich, Connecticut
    - 1995
    - WWE
    - 6'4

    probably is too easy
