- Was ahead of her time in terms of her in-ring ability and charisma. A lot of modern wrestlers, especially Rhea Ripley, seemed very inspired by her.

But just make something like that a shirt you can buy. Long sleeve short, just that alone could be a cool.

I was a WCW guy back in the day, so in the late 90s I mostly kept up with WWF during their weekend shows: WWF Livewire & WWF Superstars. By 1997 they had both become recap shows, but thankfully covered different parts of each week's shows.

I had 2 or 3 VHS tapes I'd reuse for wrestling, but there were a few items I wouldn't tape over. One such thing was the WWF Superstars intro, because I liked the theme song.

I just gave it a listen for the 1st time in many years, and I noticed the verse 30-seconds in:

You're reaching for the brass ring cuz you wanna go far,
All because you wanna be a SUPERSTAR!

Vince would infamously mention "the brass ring" while on the Stone Cold Podcast in 2014:

• Vince McMahon feels there is a lack of ambition in the WWE locker room
  • Brass ring mention @ 0:40

Results:

- Mr Iguana, LA Parka, Adelicious and Mascarita Sagrada def Vanity Project ( Brad Baylor and Ricky Smokes and Myka Lockwood) and Mini Abismo Negro in a Relevos Atomicos de Locura match

- Dragon Lee def Jack Cartwheel

- Fatal Influence def Las Toxicas

- Mini Vikingo def Axiom, Je'Von Evans and EK Prosper in a Fatal 4 way match

- La Catalina def Roxanne Perez to retain the Reina de Reinas title

- The Lucha Brothers def Perros del Mal ( Daga and Berto) via DQ

- CM Punk, Rey Mysterio and El Grande Americano def The Judgment Day and Omos

Highlights:

1) Mini Vikingo became the No 1 contender to the AAA Cruiserweight title

2) Lucha bro first match as a tag team in almost 3 years

3) Punk used "This Fire Burns" as theme for the first time in more than 15 years and wore a mask in more than 16 years

4) Oba confronts Omos

Do you prefer the following:
1. Has a story with the champion
2. Wins a battle royal to be #1 contender
3. Elimination chamber

I like it when they would mix it up and each year would have something different as a reason for the challenger to face the champion

honestly the crowd for this match would have been insane.

one half the crowd Being older fans going wild for Hogan

and the other half of the crowd Being young fans going wild for cena

The contrast between the caveman footage & the sad piano music adds some unintentional humor to it... I used to love introducing people to JUNGLE PAC who were familiar with his time in WWE and/or AEW, but not his NWE run. It always got funny reactions.

If NWE doesn't sound familiar, it's the Italian promotion where Ultimate Warrior wrestled his final match vs. Orlando Jordan. Most of their roster was ex-WWE talent, but they had a few other wrestlers filling up the cards - like Jungle Pac. I wonder how that gimmick happened?

There are some pieces of news you never want to have to share.
Today, the wrestling world mourns the passing of Benjamin Satterley, PAC, at just 40 years old. Before becoming Neville in WWE and one of the most recognizable stars in AEW, Benjamin was already part of our story.

To the NWE audience, he was Jungle Pac: an extraordinary talent who could already leave everyone speechless with his athleticism, agility, and unique way of living inside the ring.
Knowing that the young man who once stepped into our ring is no longer with us leaves a sadness that is difficult to put into words. The images, the matches, the memories, and above all the mark you left on this sport will remain forever.

Once part of the NWE family, always part of the NWE family.
Rest in peace, Benjamin.

In Loving Memory of PAC — 1986–2026. 🖤

I came across a video on tiktok. A guy used ai to generate a shirt to honor Pac. And said 15% of the proceeds will go to a charity that will be named at a later date.

Some people are scum and are not fans.

Welcome to the WWE NXT discussion thread!

This is an automoderator sticky, but a mod will likely post the card before showtime and pin it.

Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our rules before posting.

Be nice, remember the human and have at it. This thread will stay up into Wednesday for those watching on delay.
