Do yourself a favor and watch his matches. There's more on the network than NXT. As others have said, the guy in his prime was magic in the ring. And the ladies you mentioned may have done great work, but they're not anywhere near the level of discussion the Hammer warrants. Besides, if women's wrestling in the WWE was so great prior to a month or two, why market this divas revolution? A revolution implies the old was bad and we need something new. Like I said, his remarks are sexist. You can't say he's no good in the ring though. Sarcasm. Do you know what that is? According to Greg Valentine these Womens Matches who have been Normal Matches are Horrible eventhought these Women had many great Matches. So i made a Joke about them not needing a Dog Collar like him who according to you guys had a "Timeless/Instant Classic" Dog Collar Match ! Did i say the Match was bad? NO! I just hate the comparisons of Normal PRO WRESTLING Matches and GIMMICK Matches. It might was a Classic but i don't care because it makes no sense to compare a Match that involved objects etc etc to a Match that was based on pure In Ring Skills ONLY with out the usage of Objects like in this case a Dog Collar Oh and I never said that he is not good in the Ring. He is! I know that! So you don't need to tell me to do myself a favor! The only one that needs to do himself a favor is Greg Valentine and watch some of the Matches I mentioned! So stop telling me how good he is and that i should not say the things i said etc etc. If he makes stupid and sexist comments like that you need to expect certain people to make comments like that. I'm aware how sarcasm works. I also know what faulty logic is. You showed both in 1 post. Congratulations. The dog collar match ended an intense feud. So a gimmick match is called for. He had other instant classic matches without gimmicks- like Backlund and McDaniel. NONE of the Matches you cited are classics. Don't kid yourself. We get that you like women's wrestling. But those bouts will never be near his level of work. Again- his comments are sexist. His ring work is flawless.

People saying Valentine hasn't done anything memorable or noteworthy have no clue. His dog collar match with Piper at Starcade 83 was an instant classic. He also had great feuds with Wahoo McDaniel and Bob Backlund. Do some research- there was good wrestling outside of the WWE. And up until a month ago women's wrestling was a joke. They were 3 minute matches that gave you a safe time to go use the restroom without missing anything. Sure this whole divas revolution is hopefully start of something more respected, but even Trish Stratus and the Bellas started out as nothing more than eye candy. Greg Valentine's comments are old fashioned and misogynistic but he's partly right. Women will not draw the way men do. Do they have a place? Yes. At one point, Glorious Ladies of wrestling had its own show. But they won't headline the way the guys do. Was it? Really? You know that Paige Vs. Emma, Paige Vs. Natalya, Natalya Vs. Charlotte, Charlotte Vs. Bayley, Charlotte Vs. Sasha Banks, Charlotte Vs. Sasha Banks Vs. Becky Lynch Vs. Bayley & Sasha Banks Vs. Becky Lynch(only mentioning WWE Matches) took place between 2013 and now? Or is 1 Month for you 2 1/2 Years for everyone else? And by the way. These Women did not need Dog Collars for a "instant classic" which some of these Matches deserve to get called. Do yourself a favor and watch his matches. There's more on the network than NXT. As others have said, the guy in his prime was magic in the ring. And the ladies you mentioned may have done great work, but they're not anywhere near the level of discussion the Hammer warrants.

At one point, Glorious Ladies of wrestling had its own show. But they won't headline the way the guys do. Just a month ago? You know women's wrestling goes beyond wwe? There are plenty of Indy women's wrestling shows that draw huge crowds... Nxt has been great for a year now and Nikki and Paige have been putting on great matches together for months now.. He's not right, like at all lol I should've said WWE women's wrestling. Sure there's indy stuff that draws. But it's not going to draw or get over the way male wrestling does. And give VKM a solid 3 more months and you'll see Nikki vs. Charlotte in a bra and panties match or Paine vs Becky Lynch in the mud.

Well i don't know where you guys see price's like $3-$10 cause every where i look to buy some they all range in the prices of an Elite/DM and they may be worth that little but they sure as hell don't sell for that cheap anywhere i've seen (ebay,classifieds,etc) If you're paying over $10 for an average RA figure (especially before shipping) then you're totally getting ripped off. If its something rarer/popular/harder to find then its understandable. Ive bought and sold RAs for under $10 on ebay and classifieds here even before Jakks lost the contract. Ebay is going to run high because they're marked up significantly. People also are trying to make as much return on their investment as they can- so they expect you to pay above retail from 3 years ago even though the Jakks market has basically collapsed. I've also noticed that probably the most expensive CS/RA figs are Hogans (because its Hogan) and Steve Williams (because it looks like Macho Man).

The head isn't too bad. Maybe a ufc rich franklin head would be a better fit

Everything is great, but Arn looks a little off for some reason. I might be me, I dunno. I used the chubby midsection and the hw torso to reflect arns thicker build. I think its how the headscan is decorated from jakks. In person it looks great.

Put them in a container you can seal and then put some baking soda in with it. Seal the container. The baking soda will absor the odor in a day or so

The eddie is probably the best looking in terms of torso choice and everything, but I really like how snuka came out as well except that the color seems really off... But if it works for you I guess thats ok. As for sting there isn't much change but any sting figure is awesome =] The snuka doesnt look as bad in regular lighting, its the flash that highlights the skintone difference. and sting has the UFC upper torso- he can actually hold his hands up to woo. I painted on the singlet. Thanks for the love!

hey guys- My original ultimate deluxe customs can be seen here: wfigs.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=Customs&thread=187539&page=1But I came up with a few more and I want to know what you think! First up- 'Superfly' Jimmy Snuka Followed up by Eddie Guerrero. I thought the lighter torso fit him better, especially with the smaller scale head. And last but not least, the Stinger.... Let me know what you think! I'm looking for more parts and headscans, so if you can help out with that, let me know!
