taken?  in '98? 99? I can't tell if Hogan has his hollywood beard but he might. Also is that Billy Gunn behind Shawn and Bulldog (if that is Shawn?)? Who's the guy in between The Giant and Austin? Also where was this taken at? Any answers would be appreciated. Edit: can’t believe I didn’t see Bulldog’s tights there.. |

That photo looks to be 1996.
Bulldog has the short hair, Austin looks to be going into the Stone Cold look, Flair has the short hair, Giant still looks young.

After seeing "Unique" as the first word in the title, i was expecting this to be a doctorwhofan thread.
Anyway, definitely looks late 90's.
Also, that's Bulldog on the end, not H.

Yeah I didn’t see Triple H in the pic. Davey Boy Smith is the one on the end to the right.

one of the rare nights that both wcw and wwf were running shows in the same city, so shouldn’t be crazy hard to find a date for it. story was that they happened to all meet at the gold’s gym i believe.

Wonder what Austin thought seeing Hogan I had always heard Austin say that he had respect for Hogan. Was there some kind of heat between them back then? |

Austin ragged on Hogan and others in WCW being old and taking spots from younger wrestlers in his ECW promos When Hogan came in he brought all his friends and Austin went down the card quickly, losing the US title to Jim Duggan

Was there some kind of heat between them back then? respect for hogan? austin dodged the program for wrestlemania x8 because he clearly wanted nothing to do with hogan. i'm sure he says he respects him now as it's water under the bridge. |

Im pretty sure its Macho, Flair, Gym Worker, Hogan, Giant, Gym worker, Austin, gym worker, gym worker, Bulldog
I use to think the guy in the blue hat was Bob Holly, then people mentioned Billy Gunn but the guy is too tall to be either.

Billy Gunn is a BIG dude. He's legit 6'4/6'5. Unlike Triple H that is. That guy could be Gunn easily based on height alone. But can't quite tell from the face. Very close. |
