"Does anybody remember the good old days?"

I used to be a massive WWF Fan about 10 years ago.
I loved Mr Perfect and Razor Ramon
My best friend's favourite was Bret "Hitman" Hart
Then Yokozuna the fat Sumo guy turned up and started throwing salt and stuff
What a brilliant time!!!

yeah, that and all the drugs :-S
such a waste, but then again, when he formed the New Rockers with Leif Cassidy (al snow), they sucked anyway...

I think that Tag Team is best left in history. Koko was a useless wrestler but got ridiculously over with a stupid gimmick. History repeating these days?

Yet Marty was in the ring the most for the majority of the matches, he was the guy getting beaten down and then got the tag to Michaels who cleaned house and did the end 2 minutes. Personally i feel Marty was the better of the two at the time but everyone has their opinion

I totally disagree. The reason Michaels went on to be successful was because he had the talent to do so. As part of The Rockers, Michaels was always the crowd pleaser-the one who jumped all over the ring and who did all the high spots. Jannetty was less talented.
His career went down the drain when he nailed Sherry with the mirror. The fans booed him out of the arena even though it was Michaels that used her as a human sheild.


"Ladies and Gentleman, Shawn Michaels has left the building."

That marked the decline of Marty's career after that as well i think. Michaels (who arguably was the least talented member of the two at that time) went up and up while Jannety was left to be the jobber. Quite a shame really because he was very talented

When HBK turned heel I remember I was really hooked to the storyline. He was BAD and I liked it. It was the start of my heel loving days...

Anyway, yes, Owen Hart and Koko B Ware were known as "High Energy". It's safe to say they weren't Owen's greatest tag team.

that was Kamala mate :)

Koko B. Ware used to have a parrot named Frankie, wore stupidly baggy trousers and tagged with Owen Hart as..er.. "High Energy" i believe.. Cong Man, can you remember??

D'yo know Koko B Ware . . . was he the guy on RAW recently for that diva thing or was that some one else?

I remember when I saw a videa of one of the events when the guy on RAW was fighting Undertaker in a casket match, t'was funny.

yeah dude, Shawns heel turn was a HUGE deal then. twas a more "innocent" time when wrestling fans weren't so close to the inner workings of it all...

however, before it all gets a bit too rose-tinted, let us remind ourselves of Koko B Ware. bad things can happen people :)

Lex Luger made me laugh, when he was heel and was knocking people out with that "steel plate" in his arm, it was made out to be the worst thing ever, what a cheating git!!.. but as soon as he went face it was fine :)
gotta love fickle fans and commentators :)
