Wasn't there a similar one where this kid has to play one on one basketball with some pro player? He loses badly, as expected, but, just to be sure he then has to wrestle some pro sumo wrestler.. at which point the basketball player walks off and says "good luck, kid" in a tone that suggests he's VERY glad it isn't him who has to have the sumo wrestler.
Sodium retains water.... it's the electrolyte that actually matters when hydrating during physical stress. The sugar more than anything is what makes it less hydrating. Otherwise for normal applications, just drink water
I got into wrestling just before NWO / Crow Sting. My god what a time to watch. Sting, the NWO, Lex Luger, DDP, Bill God Damn Goldberg. And now I use DDP's Yoga Program. I can still remember the EXCITEMENT of the PPP night with DDP vs Kurt Henning, and Sting Vs. Hogan. WHAT A NIGHT.

Me too. I didn't think this commercial was odd, just uniquely hilarious

The 90s were a fantastically lawless time to grow up and it was amazing!

Except ladies were embarrassed about their "big butts." That was dumb.

Started high school in '91, right when the grunge era and the LSD renaissance took off. We were truly blessed

After the Cold War before 9/11. It was great.

Michael angarano. He almost got the part of anakin Skywalker. Probably a good thing he didnt.
DougTheLlama
That's the kid from Sky High!

Looks like him.

Tagline was something like, "Sprite won't make you a good wrestler, but it will quench your thirst"
Not a bad ad, as far as ads go.
SoraHjort
https://youtu.be/fTA6_Yk3tIw has the tagline as well as the often not seen credits of who was behind it

Not bad? Its gold jerry. Gold !

Still though, We are going to need another Timmy

It's okay. Wrestling is fake.

Yeah. This is hilarious

Sprite absolutely will not quench your thirst though. It has SO. MUCH. SALT.

Didn't know that

Ya it has always done the opposite for me. Soda in general is just bleh

Wrestling back in the day was absolutely unhinged
Assholethecat
I Just watched Edge hit Christian Cage in the nuts with a board with nails on AEW Dynamite. I think it's still unhinged.

Ahhhh the kid from Almost Famous!

The kid looks familiar.

He was my favourite member of the Wolfpac, followed by...Kevin Nash or Macho Man?

That kid actor kept acting. He had the lead role in Sky High with Kurt Russell several years later.

I don't understand how he wasn't laughing his ass off under that mask at how stupid this is.
Someshithead241
Wrestling is guys version of soap operas.
Assholethecat
Women watch as well
Someshithead241
And guys watch regular soaps, I know. But I'm just talking about who it's advertised and mainly created for.

WHAT IS STING DOING IN THE IMPACT ZONE~??????
thedudeman519
That's to Axs TV or whatever Ive been watching a lot of TNA. I had just stopped watching by the time they popped up. Fun stuff .

Sucks that AEW missed the last opportunity they had to do that spot, because they had Darby Allin wearing the Sting mask, instead.
