So, here's some odd obsessed fan taking video camera footage of loads of the WWF guys at a hotel, then at a charity baseball game, and then before they enter some sort of function (he even catches VKM!).
Freaky bits include - the filmer dressing as HBK and filming himself in the mirror, and also spying on HBK/Vader working out in the gym. (See, I told you it was odd. You all know what you're getting yourself in for).
But, in all seriousness, it's a cool watch, even if it's just to see Trips and Ahmed Johnson (who looks like an utter monster at this point) pissing around during a Q&A. And Tammy during her DISGUSTINGLY hot phase. Man, she loves it.
Also, look out for Lawler and Hennig having a seriously off day...

Love the bit where Bret Hart invites the fan into his hotel room, where there are several other wrestlers all watching the main event of Summerslam 1992.
ReplyDeleteAnd that obsessed fan would be me over at @statmark on twitter. And yeah, I was a BIT obsessed with Shawn back in the day which continues to be a running gag amongst my friends now.
ReplyDeleteYou've got a girlfriend, we believe you.
ReplyDeleteThat's some awesome footage. Was Doc Hendrix/Michael Hayes EVER not a big dork?
ReplyDeleteGood news: You got Steve Austin's autograph
ReplyDeleteBad news: He signed it as "The Ringmaster"
Was that Shawn limping down the hall at the 42:30 mark?
ReplyDelete48 minutes? Aint nobody got time for that!
ReplyDeletethanks for uploading that footage.
ReplyDeleteI'd recommend skipping the baseball match, which takes up a good 15-20 minutes. The rest is pretty darn fun!
ReplyDeleteIt's quite funny seeing the heels breaking kayfabe in the baseball, though, namely one Isaac Yankem DDS fooling around.
What happened to the tears in their eyes?
ReplyDeleteThe coolest cameo was probably Vince. It's funny how much I hated Vince as a commentator at the time, but then he turned into a evil boss and now when I look at old footage of Vince, I see him in a whole different light.
ReplyDeleteI don't know why but when Undertaker started walking towards the camera man I got scared for him.
ReplyDeleteSunny in 1996.
ReplyDeleteI haven't watched some of the footage, did the fan manage to get any shots of the Ultimate Warrior, because I imagine the WWF were doing the utmost to keep him out of sight till his match
ReplyDeleteSo many mushroom haircuts...
ReplyDeleteFucking wow. Even in her mom shorts and Thom McAn's.
ReplyDeleteIt was the night before Bret had to lose his deserved WWF Championship to homosexual Shawn Michaels, the only teary eyes that night were Brets.
ReplyDeleteThe most downloaded woman in the history of AOL!
ReplyDeleteYeah...really...DISGUSTINGLY HOT is a GREAT way to describe her from that time period.
