10 Ultra-Rare Unreleased WWE Matches We’d Love To See

Scott Hall has spoken in several interviews about his 'Bad Guy' persona gaining immediate traction after a conversation with Vince McMahon in which the boss confessed to not having seen the seminal 1983 film 'Scarface',

Aping Tony Montana to the amazement and complete naivety of his new boss, Hall lined himself up a significant push as a top heel in a rapidly-changing WWE. Debuting the character in dark matches shortly after WrestleMania 8, the newly-christened Razor Ramon hammered jobbers for months whilst ironing out the kinks in the character ahead of a televised debut in on an August edition of Wrestling Challenge.

Taking on local talents and lower card scrubs, Ramon went undefeated during his opening months, with one utterly perplexing exception.

Buried in the middle of a typically mammoth television taping at the end of June, Virgil cleanly defeated the man soon to be the top new heel on the roster despite not having a programme of his own in months and preparing himself for an upcoming SummerSlam pounding from the vicious Nailz.

This curious anomaly remains one of Razor's only defeats in all of 1992. Weirder still, one of Ramon's first televised victories would actually be against Virgil, when a September Prime Time Wrestling episode aired a five minute hammering of the former bodyguard by 'The Bad Guy'.
