Does anyone else remember a tournament between the wrestlers in the late 90s early 00s where the fought in boxing matches each week and advanced to a final.the winner fought butterbean and got knocked out within seconds at wrestlemania I think
I'm pretty sure this happened.can anyone remember what it was called?

I remember it, it was called Brawl for All (I got the name from Google) Bart Gunn and Dr Death Steve Williams were in it. If I remember right Bart Gunn won it and fought Butterbean at a PPV. Butterbean knocked him out if I remember right.

The tournament was in the summer of 1998. Gunn faced Butterbean at Wrestlemania 15.
The competitors were-
Steve Blackman, Marc Mero, Henry O Godwin, JBL, Savio Vega, Brakkus, Droz, Road Warrior Hawk, Bob Holly, Bart Gunn, Dr. Death, Quebecer Pierre, the Godfather, Dan Severn, Ron Harris, and 2 Cold Scorpio.
JBL, who lost to Gunn in the finals, said that Vince Russo came up with the idea for the tournament after Bradshaw had asked Russo about starting a Hardcore division in the WWF.

Cheers for the replies.I remember the name of it now.that probably wasnt the wwe's smartest idea and in not surprised it only lasted one run.I forgot all about Bart gunn.couldn't have lasted long after that.

Bart Gunn Had a mean Left Hook Knocking out the Godfather & Bradshaw. I remember Steve Blackman Taking down Mero often & Dan Severn was the UFC Champ at the time. Absolutely awful all of it the Fans Hated it. I loved the WWF Hardcore Title when it was defended 24/7 so much fun.

There was a big controversy that the whole thing was set up to debut Dr Death Steve Williams, because he was a mean shooter and they assumed he would win. I think he legit tore a calf during his first match and that was it, he was done.
They offered a $20k purse to the winner to get people to agree to enter, and there was a claim they'd also had to pay it to Steve Williams as he had been promised a torne set up for him to win.

How to solve a problem a problem like Ambrose?
I love wrestling and only really watch wwe but I also love football and my team is celtic. Now in both at the moment they have a problem with ambrose.in wwe ambrose is lurching around the midcard with little purpose or direction.similarly efe Ambrose of celtic is lurching around getting the odd game without being able to complete the basic footballing function of passing to a teammate or not mistiming a tackle.
Solution? Well why not swap them over for a month.dean ambrose is certainly unstable enough to slot in at right back when lustigs injured and big efe ambrose has the type of easy go lucky personality that could easily be the fourth member of the new day.
I doubt Vince would even notice.could it work?

I'm a Chelsea fan so football is a bit of a sensitive topic at the moment!

As a Bristol City fan I'd happily take on any players or wrestlers available to fill a squad spot.
We have failed to name a full bench twice this season because we literally don't have enough pro players on the books.
Send us either Ambrose and he will probably get a game.

U can't have seen big efe Ambrose them bessex lol
4.) 16 Sep 2015 20:03:05
You can swap Ambrose for Ambrose if you want but I ain't swapping Kane for Kane.

It would be convenient if his arse is big enough to feel two spots on the bench.
6.) 17 Sep 2015 17:28:20
Lol at the Chelsea fan saying football is a sensitive topic right now! It must be really tough being champions! As a Birmingham City fan (sorry about the other night Bessex!) I know about hard times and Chelsea fans have got it easy! As for the OP, VKM is so enamoured of Irish and Scottish culture that he'd probably go for your idea!

That was almost a Dusty Promo.
I know about hard times, the Bristol City fans know hard times, have you ever seen your side throw away a two goal lead in injury time, that's hard times, Daddy!
Our manager swears blind we were robbed at St Andrews, but he's saying a lot of that recently, terrible pen decision though. I think we will be alright once they find their feet.

Lol, I did have Dusty in the back of my mind! I think it was a fair result if I'm honest, that penalty was very soft but we looked pretty comfortable throughout the game. We look pretty good this season, Rowett is doing a great job. I think you'll do ok this season and it must be nice to be linked with £8 million players (even if they don't quite come off!) It was a good point for us last night at Ipswich. I'm looking forward to tuesday night in the cup now!!
