- MODERN VERSIONS | Legends Current Counterparts!
They say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and that statement is no different in the world of wrestling. And that statement can certainly be applied to the squared circle where so many modern-day superstars, remind us of legends of the industry. But who are the biggest examples of old school performers and their modern-day counterparts being so alike. Well, that’s exactly what we’re going to be looking at today.

Seth is more HBK than Savage. All-rounder, flamboyant outfits, Wrestlemania specialist.
Seth is this genration's MR WRESTLEMANIA
Johnny is more hbk than anybody
That I can agree with you on 💯
I feel like Savage is more AJ styles
When you simplify it like that. It sounds like both HBK & Savage. Savage had many of his Wrestlemania matches with the WWE title on the line. Plus the IC classic at WM3 and a couple other matches that weren't as big.
I see where you are coming from, but personally I feel Seth's current gimmick and outfits feel more Savage than HBK.
I'd be lying though if I said it wasn't obvious that the rest of Seth's career stemmed from the love he clearly has for HBK.
Bron Breakker is just like his dad Rick but mic skills like his Uncle Big Poppa Pump 😂😂😂
Thus he is peak Steiner
So he should be Bron Steiner
@@TheBandit025Nova Could be? Yes, should be? Nah; he kind of already proved he doesn't need the family name so what would be the point, especially now?
You see the numbers dont lie... given bron is the son of rick and rick is a 100% wrestling machine, that means Bron is at least 50% a wrestling machine, but then you throw in big poppa pump's 100% promo capabilities, divide it by 3(since he's his nephew) that leaves 33.3% promo capabilities to Bron Breakker and you add that on top of his 50% wrestling machine, and that leaves Bron being 83.3% wrestling material
BUT THEN, you add scott steiner's also 100% wrestling machine skills, divide it once again by 3 and add it on top of Bron's 83.3% wrestling material, and that leaves Bron as 116.6% pure wrestling material
The numbers dont lie and they spell DISASTER to whoever comes face to face with The Badass of WWE
@TheBandit025Nova He could've, but he wanted to make it without using the Steiner name to get over.
When look at Solo all I see is Umaga. From the way he yells before the Samoan Spike to how dominant he is in the ring to his killer presence etc. But lately he hasn’t been because he’s on a losing streak
i mean theyre related and im sure its on purpose that he should remind the Fans of Umaga.
@@Papellxhase not to forget he also used Umagas finisher.
Whenever I see Solo, I only think about how much Koreans hate him. Lmao.
They're building to him splitting from Roman, I think. We've seen hints at it for a long time now. Solo's temper has made him almost come to blows with Roman before, especially when Roman's fuck ups cost him a match. But we really just saw it at Mania. When Cody kicked out of the Spike, the look on Solo's face said so much. Then him barking orders at Roman....yeah, he's done with the bullshit. The Bloodline isn't working for him anymore, and I wouldn't be surprised if he's Spiking Roman out of his boots by Summer Slam.
@@BigRiceEnergy💀💀
A-Town Down Under is Rated RKO
Trick Williams is Booker T
Chad Gable is Kurt Angle
Dom and Rhea are Eddie and Chyna
Chad is not Kurt angle at all
@@user-wf9qv6nq5she is tho
@user-wf9qv6nq5s Yeah the "You Suck" chant has VERY different meanings for both guys
They need to push Chad like they did Angle.
@@user-wf9qv6nq5s Chad Gable is more Kurt Angle than Gable Stevenson, the only problem is he hasn't gotten the opportunity to prove it in WWE.
You missed the most obvious Modern version: R-Truth and his child hood hero John Cena. Both have similar arsenals and both rap.
It's so freaking funny R-Truth says that. He is older than John Cena by a couple of years. It's nice to know things it makes the skit so much better.
Taz vs Samoa Joe would have been great
This seems to be before WrestleMania 40. Cody Rhodes can now say he made his late father proud for becoming Universal Champion. LA Knight will be a World Champion at some point. Solo Sikoa needs to win a championship at some point as well.
nah, i think its a bit too early. they pushed him too hard too fast.
What? Solo is nothing. The bloodline will collapse and all he is is not even midcard.
@@adrenaliner91 I didn't say that Solo should be a World Champion. The Intercontinental Title or the United States Title is certainly possible for him.
@@johnnymason2460I could totally see Solo as a good and solid midcarder in the future.
The Street Profits = Cryme Tyme
Gunther = William Regal
Omos = The Great Khali
Naomi = Jacqueline
Bayley = Lita
A-Town Down Under = The Miz and John Morrison
Iyo Sky = Gail Kim
F**** man this is great, especially the Gunther comparsion, it fits him better than the Brock comparsion.
I get that Gunther is a destroyer, but like Regal he carries himself like someone who wants to be prestigeous in what he does and not a monstrous mercenary.
Only one o don't really agree tho is Bayley as Lita.
I like all these except comparing Baley to Lita😂
Becky Lynch is Lita!
@@RomaroBrandon OK I can see that
@@RomaroBrandon Or even Shotzi.
Bianca Bell air is the John Cena "superhero" version of the woman division
Were You dropped on Your Head as a Baby?
The fuck did you manage to spell "Belair" wrong?
Scott Steiner was so juiced back in the late 90s running the country dry of the supply. He looked insane.
2:18 that's a really good Macho Man impression!
LA Knight reminds me more of DDP in WCW
Yeah, older guy who got insanely over
Damn kevin Nash said the same about Seth Rollins being a modern day macho man
Dom is like Eddie in his early days especially with Ripley by his side modern day Chyna
Drew McIntyre's comment aside, Damien priest almost looks and really moves like The Undertaker. That's a gimmick priest could easily take over.
Priest, to me, is Roman II.
Similar voice when cutting a promo too.
Oh hell, surely WWe loves to recycle gimmik's , and also storylines ^^ .. what is surely easier and cheaper than invent new gimmiks and styles/stories ... its like a computer, never touch a running system ... BUT NEVER REDO THE TAKER ....redo the american badass .. no problem but the TAKER gimmik should Rest in peace with Marc!
LA Knight already beat Rollins to Slim Jim and frankly hes killin it. YEAH!
*YEAHH!!*
Drew is truly the best thing in wwe today. I have actually gone from not caring for drew to him being the reason for me to watch Raw.
Agreed
Seth is supposed to be showing up in the next Captain America movie so, there’s that.
Last I seen his part got cut. With the resorts he might make it back in though
I prayed for this - and it happened. Needs to be a catchphrase
I think if solo morphs his own personality into the Umaga character his mimicking it could turn out great
Solo hasn't won a match this entire year, 0-22. In fact, he hasn't won a match since beating Cena.
Next Umaga 😂
Shouldn't Drew be Pipper?
😅Bron Breaker need to cut a math promo like Scott Steiner.
He did at one point
@@tariqdogg5944 when was that mate
@@ABIT-cb1qh Prior to the Halloween Havoc Triple Threat with JD McDonagh and Dragunov.
@@originalhuggies9740 ♥️♥️
@@originalhuggies9740 yup
I guess FTR can be considered the modern day version of Blanchard and Anderson
You'd guess wrong.
@@skyatollah2skyharder276He’s right tho
To me Liv Morgan is like Ashley Massaro (rip) I feel like Livs royal rumble attire reminded me of an Attire Ashley would wear and was inspired by her also would love to see a part 2!
I never seen drew be compared to Bret but I see it you made it work 👏🏾
Bret = cm punk
Solo = Tazz
thank you for doing this great creative ideas for these videos
Bron definitely is a combination of his dad and his uncle
Everytime Bron cuts a promo, I hear Scott
Kinda surprised you didn't do a Rhea / Chyna entry
MJF : Ric Flair
Yup!!!
cody as cena
roman as reign of terror hhh
theory as young randy orton
seth rollins as hbk
Roman as Triple H is accurate.
I'd say Solo is more like taz/Tazz than Umanga. 8:23
Dolph Ziggler and HBK, i know its wild but thier gimmick is similar but HBK is on another level
HBK did become the support ^^ Ziggler never was allowed to step up , because .. HBK still was active ^^ No need for same Characters in the top spots
Dolph Ziggler is like a modern day Billy Gunn
Come on LA Knight screams I am modern Rock, even their voices sound the same(LA knight voiced the rock in a wwe 2k game)
Funny you mention seth rollins potential movie role😂 because wasn’t he supposed to be in the mcu but got canceled. Clear cut correlation between the two wrestlers. Spot on
So funny is starting to see the acclaim with Billy Gunn and their gear. Then went from Billy gun being pink and green to these guys coming out with the pink and black attack. Let's hurt foundation. That's a real throwback. You got to be a tough man to be able to wear pink but then you show a small clip of the acclaim coming down the ramp with Billy gum and his ass boys and they're all wearing pink and black. That's a foundation like a heart foundation. Thought blew my mind again and my other comment. Everything old is new. Again, thanks for reminding me😮
I'm so glad that you caught what I saw because don't get me wrong. Billy Gunn and the road dog Jesse James did use the color paint because you got to be tough to wear pink. It's a rodeo term. Bye. Their colors weren't pink, black and white. Their colors were black, green and pink. A big difference why? Because they had hearts and hearts are pink. I know I have a tattoo but yeah there's a reason Billy gone dead pink, white and black. It's a tribute again. Everything old is new again
what is he talking about?
aint gonna lie you were talking like LA Knight isn't in his 40s but great video as always
I said this exact same thing about LA when was in nxt I told my cousin he is what happens when you mix stone cold and the rocks characters he did really see it til he got to raw and smackdown glad im not the only one 🎉
Brett and Drew....come on man🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️
I almost choked on my ice cream.
3:19 Seth Rollins is set to star in the new Captain America film
Surprised there was no mention of Rhea Ripley as a modern-day version of Chyna. WWE is pushing her like she is the next Chyna.
After jade debut it is easily visible WWE is pushing jade Cargill as modern day Chyna. Rhea becomes more like beth phoenix
Damn dude I'm learning so much thank you
Pretty much every bleach blonde wrestler can trace lineage & inspiration back to Hogan & Ventura; then back to Dusty, Graham, Patera, Valentine, & Flair; & then once again back to Buddy Rogers; & then of course to Gorgeous George
Okay, I just started watching the video and you doing comparison of one of my favorite wrestlers cuz I'm from Calvary Alberta Canada so of course it's Bret Hart. Is he the best? No but he's in my favorite yes and then the comparing with my mother and d favorite Drew McIntyre. Awesome because in that comparison you said something very important. You said old things could be done again and what I've always told my friend when he watches wrestling with me, see something go what I seen that somewhere before and I'll tell him. Wrestling is a story that everything is new again. Doesn't matter how many times the butler did it. If you can get the story going until they figure it out. Everything old is new again. That's the true method of wrestling and their storytelling. So poppers or the exact same anything they did five years ago 10 years ago. They can rehash and do it with two different actors and two different characters. As long as they make it interesting, everything old is new again. That's the mantra of wrestling and it doesn't mean WWF. This is every wrestling company in the world. They all if they don't work it they don't make it. You can only make up so many new things before you have to go back to the old way. It goes everything old is new again😂😮❤
The fact Rhea and Chyna wasn't on the list
Seth and Macho? I dont see it
Wait minutes you forgot about Mr.Monday night Rob Van Dam and Matt Riddle too😂😂
Tazz and Samoa Joe are two of my favorites. Their no nonsense tough attitudes appeal to me. Tazz was my favorite ECW wrestler of all time. I enjoyed watching Samoa Joe choking someone out in TNA. We may never get wrestlers like that ever again.
Trish and Tiffany a stretch. Trish was a valet that slowly got better. Tiffany wrestling wise has been good since she stepped in the ring.
8:57 I expected that to be much darker.
hey you should do a video on groups turning on their original leaders
I get all the KA knight comps but mix in a little lex Luger and I’m 100% sold%. He’s got the elbow, just needs a torture rack-like submission and he’s complete
Seth is like HBK and Thriple H combined
I would say that every modern wrestler has taken inspiration from and/or borrowed bits/pieces from several past superstars
Imagine bret hart in the attitude era
I'd say Solo Sikoa is more Taz than Samoa Joe tbh.
I almost met La knight, when he came to Hagerstown… but I was late
La knight get called the rock so much based solely on voice inflection
TRUE
Cody's Hardtimes is still one of the best modern day promos
I remember when LA night was on Brooklyn 99
Did you just compared arguably the greatest pro wrestler to an internet troll in a skirt? come on.
That internet troll is better than overrated punk, seth, Cody and knight in every way
I actually would've said Mandy Rose was closer to Trish but I could see how Tiffany matches her as well
You should have added Ricky Stark alongside L.A Knight
I haven’t seen the list yet but Damian Priest is bisexual Undertaker right?
Grayson Waller is like the cocky version of randy Orton in his earlier career when he was with evolution
Seth - Randy Savage
Roman -Hulk Hogan
Cody -Sting
Ricflair ??
I see Cody as that sting character too cuz when they had to go through similar things that made them kinda heroic in a way like within the bloodline and the nwo and they fans behind both of them big time
@@davonz4942 yes exactly the bloodline story line & NWo story of sting makes them even more close to each other, Ultimate baby face trying to recapture the industry from Mega villans & adding Rock to the story makes more sense
And appearance wise, have you seen the Sting’s gear on The great American bash 1990 it resembles more to Cody’s home lander version
La knight yeah
Asuka Is modern day Bull nakano
Trick Williams is modern day Booker T
Damian Priest is modern day Kane (A lil bit if a stretch but I say this because of R-truth reminding me a lil bit of Team hell no)
Karrion Kross is Kane
@@randomcommenter3202 What version of Kane tho? If it's early Kane then it's wrong, Kross makes tons of promos and has a cult while early Kane was basically Michael Myers.
Seth also needs to drop a hip hop album
Seth and Macho Man? not really, he reminds me of a mix of heel and babyface Shawn Michaels. or Edge. i mean there was even a whole Storyline about him being supposedly a Edge knockoff.
@@Papellxhase i mean i also see the similarities between him and Macho. but especially his Skills really reminds more of HBK than Macho. and HBK was also pretty dramatic, i just remember when he left "because i lost my smile". and he was also pretty flamboyant in his first Run just like Seth is now.
New Andy 👍
Solo is a mixture between Umaga and Tazz
Yes!
I hate when people say that LA Knight is a cosplay Rock. Dude actually has talent. He knows how to carry himself like a superstar. Hes just gotta get the machine 100 percent behind him
Tell me you're running out of ideas for a video without telling me you're running out of ideas for a video
Would love to see Taz get back into ring shape and either have a fued with Samoa Joe or team up with him as an older mentor/team mate and take out every one as a tag team.
Taz vs Samoa Joe would’ve been electric
I don't know even before this video I saw Seth as Macho Man, sure no slim Jim commercial but he has his charisma Logan ironically is more like hbk in so many ways cus Logan although very young in this game feels entitled much like hbk and his in ring work very very similar all Logan is missing is his diesel
People forget that tazz managed Joe during his nation of violence gimmick in Tna
Solo is not umaga.Umaga was ruthless and athletic .I think Jacob fatu has both that quality.Jacob has a great character as a leader of contra unit and can cut promo in a menacing way
A rare occasion to see solo pinned on tv? Alright buddy 😂
5:48 they sound so much alike
You cursed/jinxed The Acclaimed & The Bang Bang Gang lol
Im surprised he didnt put Dominik Mysterio as the modern version of Eddie Guerrero
1980s = Honky Tonk Man
1990s = Jeff Jarrett
2000s = Hollywood Rock
2010s = Elias
I think aj is more shawn than seth
I think L.A Knight is the new slim Jim guy...Yeah!
Rollins is no Machoman with his Leto Joker terrible fake laugh.
I agree i saw HBK in seth even before the change in attire as for macho man i haven't seen anyone yet take on his persona it would be to obvious & he was to unique✌😀👍
There was a little woman who came out on NXT... or Maybe AEW.
But she was blatently dressed in Blue, her enterance was in a dark/blue color scheme, and she was using swords and karate moves.
Instantly Saw Glacier, had to ask if it was his daughter.
Xia Li? If so, that's more wushu than karate.
trish and tiffany comparison, they both didn’t have much experience prior to joining & PUPPIES
Theory = young Randy Orton
Cody = super Cena
Roman = HHH Evolution
Seth = Shawn
Bron = Goldberg
Sami = Daniel Bryan
Gable = Kurt Angle
Bloodline = Evolution
Greyson Waller = Y2J
A town down Austin theory, is a bit of randy and cena
Trish & Tiffany's character even have the same initials
I thought solo was a generic version mix of image and taz lol
you forgot Eddie Gurraro and Dom Mystario.
Drew McIntyre is not no got damn Bret Hart
He’s not talking about in-ring. Actually listen to him
@@Kobe24brady12 I don’t care what context he’s speaking in. In no way shape or form are they similar
Solo is more like an Umaga (R.I.P) bootleg, He doesn't have even half the imposing presence that Umaga had.
Rusev was more like Umaga.
I honestly could get behind solo sakoa
