Hah well that's great :o Yeah, their really milking & pushing LA Knight being the Slim Jim guy, they need to continue with Bianca Belair too :!: how about that Fred Savage in that nice Rice Crispies commercial ;)

Here's a compilation of all of Macho Man's Slim Jim commercials from 1992 - 1999 in WWF & WCW :)

I never seen that Pac-Man Children's Vitamins with a very young Fred Savage before :o

Oh Yeah, I bet you didn't know who took Macho's place after he left for WCW do ya :?




Well it was briefly "The Beast of the East" Bam Bam Bigelow :o They would only have 2 ads that I recall but they replayed them for a while. Wait till you see who else did around the same time in early 95 ;)

Yep ;)

Ah, Sgt. Savage. I got into him a little bit, 95 was such a fun year. These were basically the last of the RAH days. They made Savage way taller than the rest of the figures so I always pretended he was a giant and it worked out that way and one day I'll showcase him ;)

OK...here's who else did Slim Jim at around the time Bam Bam did :o



I got 1 more video plus a short bonus clip of how they came to be :batshock: :wwshock: :smgasp:

Nope, never saw that either, though I'm surprised Nash would do something for money, lol.

That was some OJ Simpson Treesweet Commercial. I never seen that before but like I said in the Zen Topic, I never seen OJ before The Naked Gun.

I didn't think you saw that one either. Here's this one. Now this is actually kind of used via stock footage that's like a variant of one of the Macho Man's as Diesel takes his place. I thought it was really cool that Diesel was doing this and that he was the champ which that entire time was really good IMO...I loved Diesel :) This was the last of the classic WWF Slim Jim commercials and classic ones but of course count what you saw with Macho Man was in WCW,



OK, here's the bonus I was talking about...watch & listen ;)



More Slim tomorrow :o

I never seen that Kung Fu adventure set which looked fun...that was Mason Reese there :shock:

Now fast forward in about 2009...WWF is now WWE nd this is who is doing Slim Jim commercials now :o
