    Has anyone bought a shirt on WWEShop.com?
    My CM Punk Best in the World shirt just shipped about 3 weeks after ordering it, and I'm wondering when I'll get it.

    Mine hasn't even shipped yet! :(

    Is the Miz's white "awesome" t-shirt deliberately styled to look like Roddy Piper's "Hot Rod" t-shirt?

    Is that not the bake and destroy lady?

    I was going to say that. I've seen him retweeting her stuff all the time but I suppose it would make sense if she was his sister...

    Wow, a copied font. And how about the design? Isn't that also copied?

    http://www.dafont.com/ballpark-weiner.font

    or

    picture1vr0.png

    a lot of baseball jerseys/shirts use that style of font. It's fair use for everyone! that said, making a great one is more graphic designed than just put in a font and writing it.

    regarding cmpunk shirts...i got email saying mine is been shipped so they must of got their stock in!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,013 ✭✭✭✭jaykhunter


    You know the way Hunico is playing Sin Cara? Is there any other instances in wrestling where a character was played by someone else?

    Doink is the obvious one :
    Portrayers Matt Osborne (the son of Tough Tony Borne) Steve Keirn (WM9) Steve Lombardi, Dusty Wolfe, and John Maloof, Ray Apollo. Also Nick Dinsmore (2003), Dwaine Henderson.

    Characters portraying Doink as disguise : Jeff Jarrett, Men on a Mission/Bushwhackers (all dressed up as Doink). Chris Jericho (before WMX7, ambushed Regal). Also Goldust.

    Suicide was played by a number of people in TNA.

    I meant actually donned the character for realsies; so that would include Suicide, but exclude (eg) Undertaker dressing up as Kane and vice-versa in 97, lol.

    :)

    Was it just Daniels and Kaz as suicide?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,478 ✭✭✭✭gnfnrhead


    The biggest one I cant think of is when Hall and Nash were replaced with a new Razor and Diesel when they went to WCW. Suicide in TNA has also been played by at least three people.

    I'm pretty sure Okada and Kiyoshi were both under the mask at some point as well.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 23,089 ✭✭✭✭rovert


    Ricky Steamboat and Shane Douglas were WCW/NWA tag champs. Douglas got injured. So at a taping Steamboat and Douglas became the masked luchadors Los Hombres with Brad Armstrong playing Douglas under a mask.

    There is a million examples in Mexico and the terroritories days.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,037 ✭✭✭✭chopperbyrne


    Doink the Clown is one of the best examples.

    Several people were put in that role over the years.

    As a side-kick to Jay Hunters question, can you think of any more cheap imitations, whether they be cringe worthy, hilarious, or awesome?! I'll get the ball rolling with the obvious ones;

    Sting wasn't an Ultimate Warrior rip-off.

    Sting and the Warrior started as a tag team together and both had the same face paint design.

    Not sure which Sting/Warrior pic you're referring to, but one of them is Mr Anderson dressed as 90's Sting, and the other is a guy WCW hired in the mid 90's to portray the Ultimate Warrior gimmick but renamed him 'The Renegade'.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,037 ✭✭✭✭chopperbyrne


    I think it must be Anderson then.

    Damn he makes a convincing Sting!

    How does TNA's schedule compare to WWE's? As in besides TV tapings, how many house shows do each company do a week?

    TNA dont do them every week but its usually two or three. Friday and Saturday night, sometimes Thursday night too.

    WWE do a show nearly every night between the two brands.

    Is the brand extension now over in WWE?


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,487 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    On TV, yes, but it looks like they'll keep it alive in name so they can keep running two house show sets...

    Yep


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,487 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    For now, at least. Again, two champs means two big main events and draws at house shows.

    Smackdown are doing bad on the house shows recently thats why they are putting the Smackdown guys on Raw. Wonder why wwe don't just improve the smackdown roster with some Raw talent eg Miz,McIntyre & Swagger.

    Cause WWE will never admit there's a genuine problem with its booking philosophy in terms of why people don't take Smackdown seriously.

    WWE present Smackdown as the "B" show and then are shocked when people don't care about it as much as they do Raw. :/


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,296 ✭✭✭✭gimmick


    So the brand extension is still in full effect then. Thats that question answered.
