Headbanger Mosh on His Hilarious WWF Warzone/Attitude Game Voice Overs & WWF Merchandise Royalties

[@princeekeson12]

"I think I swallowed my tongue ring!" 😂

[@jchis1211]

This brings back a memory... I remember being at a Toys R Us at checkout, and our cashier was talking to another cashier about how there were some wrestlers in the store. So me and my friends started looking around, we had just gone to I want to say it was a RAW taping the previous night. It turned out to be Mosh and Trasher, they were walking out and they had just purchased their own action figures, which I found funny. I remember it was that scuba diving series. You could see the remnants of the face paint on them. We blankly stared at them and they clearly noticed that we recognized them, so they nodded at us and kept moving to the exit. I eventually yelled out to them 'you guys rocked last night', to which they looked back and said 'thanks'. And then, in one of those awkward moments, my friend goes 'yeah... we were there'. Lol, we still bring that up to him to this day.

[@JackMcCrack10]

Ehhh, back then they never stayed in town overnight. Calling bullshit with this one... And if it were the next night why would they have remnants of facepaint? 🤔

[@jchis1211]

@@JackMcCrack10 For what it's worth, I can assure you Uncle that I am not making this up! We saw them at a show in Lowell, MA and saw them at Toys R Us in Revere, MA the next day, about 45 minutes away give or take. That Toys R Us is next to a hotel that was known to be a place wrestlers stayed, and there was a gym a block or two away, I think it was a Golds, that wrestlers were known to work out at when they were in town. That Toys R Us is also on the road to Logan Airport in Boston. Why they were there the next day, I have no clue. The face paint looked like it had been washed off but you could see like a light grey haze of it, like they didn't quite get it all. Thrasher specifically.

This is a great story. Thanks for sharing.

[@cmdc778]

@@williamg-sixtrey6828 Yeah. I don’t see how that is such a mind blowing story as to merit disbelief. It’s not like he was claiming he was abducted by aliens. He just said he saw 2 wrestlers out in public who he witnessed wrestle the night before in the same general area. Pro wrestlers aren’t supernatural beings, just dudes with cool jobs. They go places and do things. I’m from outside of Pittsburgh and used to see Shane Douglas at the mall all the time during the height of ECW. He was just there shopping because that’s what you do.(or at least did until Amazon)

same. never was a fan of the change. beaver cleavage was one of the worst ideas.

I did the same thing. Also all of the Headbangers gear and faces were on No Mercy,so I would recreate them on that too.

[@crucifixmegabuster95]

My first wrestling game. Headbangers, Owen hart, hbk, farooq, goldust some of my favorites. I was terrified of Kane

[@Beckonor]

Attitude for PS1 is still my favorite wrestling game of all time. Headbangers, Trainer, Jerry Lawler, were hilarious in that game. "Ow, my liver". I also have the Headbangers bone crunching action figures. I still have a lot of those figures from that series. I was super pissed that they discontinued and replaced it with the Titantron series figures. The new series were taller than the previous one, so they weren't compatible with each. So I stopped collecting figures.

[@rush437]

i totally agree the titan tron live figures sucked ass. they were terrible looking and size was awful. i had the complete set of bone crunchers, every figure from every series, every box set, mail in, everyone of them. then TTL came out and i quit collecting jakks until the classic superstars line.

[@chrisreid688]

Goldust lol

[@litodat233]

I loved the bone crushing figures as a kid best ones in my opinion

I could never find the figures they were so hard to find of the Headbangers.

[@StevieDamnit]

My friend & I would often use his Chaz Theme from Wrestlemania 2000 on N64 that we downloaded from Napster for some absurd videos & sketches we made. I remember a specific scene we used it as background music where we were Jesse Camp & Carson Daly(two MTV VJs at the time) traveling back from a future dimension after we had escaped from a guy in a rubber Bill Clinton mask firing lasers at us with nunchucks.

[@jenniferrenolds2226]

Only in the 90s

[@itsKWhile]

Funny it's inspired by "Loser" by Beck

[@TrueNomadSkies]

The Headbangers were my favourite tag team to play against in those games because of the voices. They were soo animated and really brought you into the game. I normally used Kane or my customs, but you are so right about how much more exciting their taunts were than most other characters.

[@heyzeushoards1405]

"ugh i swallowed my tongue ring"

[@jonathanturbide2232]

Glad you asked him about the game, nice job James. It's still shocking that the Headbangers were on that War Zone roster instead of the Road Warriors, that's a pretty big achievement on its own.

I remember those games fondly. Warzone had Big Head Mode and Bean Mode. I still love fart soundsAnd Attitude came out after Owen passed away. All of my C.A.W.s had his OH armband on them. I truly wish Owen never passed away.

[@michaelcerniglia389]

I remember the headbanger action figures as a kid I had to wait 3 months of looking for the headbangers figures every single time I went to Walmart, Target, toy r us, with no luck until I went to California to goto Disney Land for a vacation and went to Rite Aid where in there little toy section they had the figures which I remember only taking a look because I was bored while my mom was buying sun screen as well as some little things we needed for that first day at Disney Land.

[@patriots-wu2qs]

[@I_Am_The_Social_Reject]

War Zone got me into wrestling and Attitude is one of the best games of all time. Aged bad but for the time, it was revolutionary. When I say aged bad, I probably still play it over most modern games cause it took skill. And Smackdown 1 and 2 I have zero desire to play. But when I play old wrestling, Attitude is always the go to

[@litodat233]

You’re probably in the minority there I played the game a lot but also hated the game I just played it cuz I was a wwf fanatic lol but it really sucked the gameplay was awful I shouldn’t have to press up up down down square triangle x just to do a power slam lol that’s what ruined the game the engine they used smack down was light years better

[@I_Am_The_Social_Reject]

@@litodat233 Sucks for you. Too complicated for some I know. Plenty of my friends love the game. Pressing circle plus direction to hit any move, L1 for finisher, talk about lame. Made for babies. Hints why I go back to attitude when playing old wrestling. Even Legends of Wrestling Showdown was great.

[@litodat233]

@@I_Am_The_Social_Reject again your in the minority with that one I don’t have a problem pressing a combination for a finisher which would make sense but to do a simple body slam ? Hell no that’s exactly why revenge and no mercy are considered to of the best wrestling games of all time attitude would never it completely sucked they were trying to bring mortal kombat buttons into wrestling didn’t work that’s why they lost the license and couldn’t make wwf games no more cuz they sucked lol but hey if u liked it that’s fine but it doesn’t change the fact that the game was very bad

[@I_Am_The_Social_Reject]

@@litodat233 Nope game was considered ahead of it's time. We all grew up with the acclaimed games. The WCW games were fine but simple. Sorry you agree with the majority of internet game that all have such a great track record for what's actually good lol.... A body slam is treated by you internet fans the way AEW treats the Canadian destroyer. You have no idea why the acclaimed games worked, and why wrestling worked. The only reason I ended up preferring Smackdown 2 was due to content. Nothing more. Until that game, Attitude was king

[@I_Am_The_Social_Reject]

@wizardwaluigi8623 I can't imagine playing Attitude in 2006 first time lol. I'm surprised you could get into it. In 1999 it didn't really seem off. But in 2006 so much tech had evolved. But it's cool that it captured your attention. To this day I wish a game had the combination system. Everything felt so hands on. I remember playing Smackdown and L1 was finisher..I thought it was so lame. Such a downgrade. And moves felt like cutscenes. I hated it. Games felt like games in 1999. Now everything is on rails

[@heyzeushoards1405]

I still have the original head bangers figures. Insane they never got love from mattel given they returned well after wwe and mattel went in business together. I would love a two pack with real cloth skirts. Lots crapped on the games but I really enjoyed warzone and attitude.

[@LordRaptor]

The Acclaimed games were horrible, BUT, the one good thing about these games were the voice overs, they were hilarious and cool, they basically what made me a fan of the Headbangers in the first place.

[@kingflame81]

Very true. Graphic-wise they've aged horribly, but yeah the voice-overs really do hold up. Well, mostly, haha.

[@rogueprince1341]

Yeah but until the WCW games came out on N64 I had no idea how bad the Acclaim games really were

[@jonathanturbide2232]

War Zone was pretty revolutionary for its time, and was a huge upgrade compared to the previous "Mortal Kombat" style WWF games we had. The graphics were really good at the time, you could create your wrestlers, great commentary by Vince and JR, and the hardcore matches were super fun. Attitude had a great roster, but it was a lazy effort compared to War Zone no doubt (very little changes, same formula).

[@sororitysleepawaymortuary1659]

I was one of the one's that bought that set of Mosh and Thrasher action figures when it came out! They were great figures! Back then I had a red pants Shawn Michaels figure that I got at a Raw show and I finally got a Bret Hart figure and both my Bret and Shawn got chewed by my friends dog... ugh. I was so upset. I only got to play with Bret once lol. I ended up getting another Shawn figure with blue pants but I didn't get Bret again.

Na, War Zone was pretty awesome at the time. It was the first real life "simulation" game from WWF, which was a huge upgrade compared to the Arcade game and In Your House. The graphics were great for 1998, and the commentary by Vince and Jr was terrific. It wasn't as fun as WCW World tour (and then Revenge) on N64, but it was still a huge upgrade and a revolution for WWF games.
