WWE commissioned a new version of the classic 1991 Royal Rumble poster, using wrestlers from this year’s Royal Rumble match.
From WWE.com:
Created by famed comic and fantasy artist Joe Jusko, the promo depicted Superstars like Hulk Hogan, “Macho Man” Randy Savage and Big Boss Man looking like a beefed-up version of a street gang from the ’70s cult classic “The Warriors.” The image left an indelible mark on a generation of WWE fans, including half of our staff, so we commissioned artist Steven Chorney, creator of memorable posters for Hollywood blockbusters like “Who Framed Roger Rabbit?”, “Indiana Jones & The Last Crusade” and “Deadpool,” to reimagine the scene for today’s roster.
Here’s the original from 1991:
AAA Triplemania 34 Night 2 Notes: Nino Hamburguesa Returns, Omos Wins Copa Bardahl, La Catalina Wins AAA Reina de Reinas, Pagano Turns Heel on Psycho Clown & Aligns With El Carnicero, Perros del Mal Uses Original “Perros” Song, Wagner Bros Wins AAA World Tag Titles, El Grande Americano Wins AAA Mega Title
