Guest Steve J. Rogers Posted August 8, 2002 Report Posted August 8, 2002 Looks like thats where they were going. Old and broken down master goes for a fight against someone who was his protege to prove to himself that he still can go. Granted the final fight in Rocky V wasn't in the ring in a publicized match but the premisis is the same. BTW if anyone knows classic country music I wonder if the writers borrowed the last phrase from Kenny Rogers "Coward of The County" with "sometimes you have to fight to be a man" I'm sure Shawn picked it up as well as country inclined Baltimorians (if thats what people from Baltimore call themselves) Well just as long as we don't get promos with fans chanting "GO FOR IT SHAWN!" Steve

Steve Yeah I was kind of thinking that while it was happening... There is another thing that the movie and the promo have in common... They were both horrible!
Guest Dangerous A Posted August 8, 2002 Report Posted August 8, 2002 I'm actully picking up a Rocky 4 vibe for the main event of SS. Rock (Rocky, ha ha) vs Brock (Ivan Drago) But I marked out like a little bitch for Rocky 4, especially the end fight.
Guest RicFlairGlory Posted August 8, 2002 Report Posted August 8, 2002 You know the WWE really ought to go all out with this. Can we get the Rocky I, II and III gimmicks going? We DO have Hulk Hogan....
Guest notJames Posted August 8, 2002 Report Posted August 8, 2002 I'm sure Mr. T isn't doing anything substantial at the moment...
Guest thebigjig Posted August 8, 2002 Report Posted August 8, 2002 Yeah the Rocky 4 thing is similar to Brock/Rock... what would make it worth the price of the pay per view is for Brock to get in Rock's face as the match begins, and say "I will break you... like your friend"
Guest RicFlairGlory Posted August 8, 2002 Report Posted August 8, 2002 lol, as long as his entrance didnt leave him out of breath, that very well might be worth buying the PPV. And MR T was doing lame local jeopardy parody commercials for a phone company up here near boston, so... I KNOW he's not doing anything.
Guest RicFlairGlory Posted August 8, 2002 Report Posted August 8, 2002 I'd mark if Lillian Garcia fucked up and announced him as "Apollo C" instead of "Booker T"
