Hey Oldies...remember Hulk Hogan?

[red_devil]

I remember playing cawith a bunch of other kids ...I had 2 sets of those cards Those good old days

Anyone used to collect those Center fresh cricket cards? Wasted so much time on that...

yup! spent a whole lot of cash on that one too...we had 'competition' in our building in trying to get hold of some of those rare cards... heck once I even bought 2 of the rare ones (forgot the cricketer) and traded one of those for 2 different cards

For me the wrestling ended with stone cold steve austin era.. That guy was something special. Made it look very real

yup! that was the era...also DX back then (chyna and her low blows ..lol ) was fun...

Well you along with Nikhil have included most of the stars of yesteryears, but you both forgot Hercules !! he was a mean machine. hitting people with chains and all, I remember in wrestle mania.

lol yea, I remember. Bret Hard, Papa Shango, The Undertaker, Lex Luger, Ultimate Warrior, Tatanka, Shawn Micheals, The British Bulldog, Razor Ramon ...

There were some extraordinary heels too like Mankind, Kane, Yokozuna, Diesel, ...Man those were the days.

I used to get so hyped and exited after watching WWF. Me and my friends would try the tombstone and the chokeslam on each other.

The Undertaker had the best moves, Chokeslam, the last ride, tombstone...*sniff sniff*

also there was andre the gaint, macho -man randy savage (brother in law of bret hitman hart), tatanka & razor ramon

IIRC, Brother-in-law of Bret Hart is the "British Bull dog" Davey Boy Smith.

Attitude era was the last time I remember WWE(F) being any fun at all. But, if WCW had not won the ratings war at that time, WWE would not even had the Attitude era that began with Austin's 3:16 speech.

Me and my two cousins were nuts about WWF... We bought stuff like the championship belt. Can You believe it.

Despite the fact that they were elder to me by 2 and 5 years, I used to win a lot. Thanks to the fact that I was their

height and much bigger , even when I was 8 and they were like 10 and 13. Actually I have been taller to them ever since. :ashamed:

We had a HUGE double bed with thick mattress and we used to try moves like tombstone, chokeslam, sharp shooter.

One of us used to be the referee and the other two used to fight :rofl:

and how can you guys forget Shawn Michaels. He had such nice entry music and offcourse the rock (the rock says... the rock says)

<sniff, sniff> Nostalgia ...

Edit: Just saw that you had mentioned Shawn. But he deserved more server space so he has some now...lolzzzzz

 

[skumar9988]

[asingh]

Yea, those were the day. Life was simple. Remember playing with those cards. Similar flavors were available for cars/airplanes/animals. Damn Fun...!

Someone mentioned VHS. Cleaning the "head" and doing "tracking"....!

 

[jampack]

Man.. you guys made me remember Trish Stratus and Stephanie Mcmahon

Anyone used to collect those Center fresh cricket cards? Wasted so much time on that...

Yes, I did that. Had all of them from 1 to 1xx something in serial order.

 

[Params7]

So much nostaligia lol..damn I still have those cards stacked somewhere. We used to play it everyday on the bus home from school.

I was crazy about those too. So much infact my mom banned center freshes for me, and tore up my cards (I managed to save my favorite card which was of Brian McMillan ). She then later let me resume the card collection again given I don't buy center fresh everyday.
Also...anyone remember the Tazoos?

 

[hellfire]

Sorry for the title (ouch) but I thought guys of my age would remember the WWF cards mad craze that we had in the mid-90s.

Gosh, this thread has revived so many dormant memories....hehehe ... I recalled this elaborate scheme of cheating me and my partner had in team games ( 2 x 2) where we used to hide Hulk Hogan, Bret Hart Hitman, Yokozuna and other cool cards. Then deal the remaining cards, and stealthily slip those cool cards in our hand to bash the opposition. After about 6 months of cheating, they became suspicious and stopped playing with us LOL

PS: Dunno about Center Fresh cards (I guess there's where the oldies part comes in) but IIRC I got a Lothar Matthäus card from Boomer bubblegum

 

[saumilsingh]

In all my decks, I dog-eared the 123 Kid card so that I would know it at a glance and could avoid getting it. Most lame card ever.

 

[SharekhaN]

You said it. He was most useless.

Others include Sid Justice, Honky Tonk Man and IRS!!!
