OT: Vancouver Canucks Playoffs Avatars

[thepuckmonster]

Hello my treasured HF buddies, it's that time of year again.

I've come up with a theme I'm working with, seeing as it's pretty hard to top the Avengers from last year.

Since we're the divingest divers that ever dived in the history of the league, I'm running with a WWE theme. The caption this year will be "WE'RE NOT FAKING".

What I need from you guys:

I'm not super familiar with a lot of wrestlers and would like a some assistance in coming up with players-wrestler correlations.

HERE'S WHAT I HAVE SO FAR:

Daniel Hart

Henrik Hart

Kassian The Ultimate Warrior

Kesler "Triple RK"

Hogan Luongo

Thank2U Zombo for the font help

[DennisReynolds]

All I know is The Unedertaker. IIRC, he's like a super intense and scary wrestler who just stares into his opponent's souls

 

[Royal Canuck]

Jordan Schroeder as Rey Mysterio

[JerkChicken]

Fat wrestler are the best...

Kamala:

King Kong Bundy:

Bam Bam Bigelow: (Seems like a candidate for 'Boom Boom Bieksa')

A believer in karma might say this thread is a tad premature.

 

[JerkChicken]

Another option for the Sedins... Remember 'The Bush-Wackers'??

I don't believe in karma.

 

[Reverend Mayhem]

You know what? This might be the first time I actually agree with the OP in one of these threads.

I'd love a Jordan Schroeder/Hornswoggle avatar if you could...

 

[Reverend Mayhem]

I don't believe in karma.

Eeeeasy there. Even if you don't believe in Karma Yoga, I do.

I've been studying Hinduism in my Asian philosophy class.

 

[Pip]

Where is my Goc one?

 

[Reverend Mayhem]

Also Alex Burrows as the Boogeyman:

 

[LiquidSnake]

I have Rick Rude as Raymond so far.

Respectfully disagree. Even the people that rooted for Rick Rude hated him. The entire league hates Kesler.

Solid point.

I will change it.

A CM Punk one that has the words "Best in the world" would be chill. Maybe with a Luongo head?

Definitely Schneider.

Maybe a homage to Finlay/Rick Rypien? They both like to fight.

 

[Royal Canuck]

I like the Burrows as Roddy Piper one as well.

 

[Reverend Mayhem]

I like the Burrows as Roddy Piper one as well.

Oooh I like that one.

How about Ballard as one who always loses? Maybe William Regal?

 

[LiquidSnake]

I'm just gonna leave this here as well.

 

[y2kcanucks]

Sestito as the Goon would be funny. Or perhaps Sestito, Lapierre and Weise collectively as the Shield?

Also, one of my favourite segments with one of my favourite wrestlers, RIP Chris. I met him at a Toy r' Us in Coquitlam during a signing. I was one of the last in line and he still graciously signed my fake Cruiserweight title and talked to us when I was 12 or so. Really sad when I heard the news. Regardless of what he did, just another tragedy at the hands of steroids and the wrestling business. I'll always remember him for being a great personable guy, who cared about everything he had because he'd worked so hard for it. One of my greatest influences too.

Jake the Snake
Stone Cold Steve Austin

Jeff Jarrett
Anyone from the NWO (there were a lot of them so it could even work to change it to a "new world order" wrestling theme)
