GENE SNITSKY + BILL MURRAY'S SNL CHARACTER+RICO'S OUTFITS= MEAN GENE THE DANCING MACHINE SNITSKY!!!!! HE'S A LOUNGE SINGER WHO NEEDS TO SING AND DANCE, IT'S NOT HIS FAULT! THE MUSIC IS IN HIME!!! RATINGS GOLD. PS--SORRY ABOUT THE CAPS...I'M AT WORK

As I read the RAW thread, and shake my head at how bad the show sucks now, I reflected for a moment on the markout moments back the the Austin/Foley/Rock days, and how much fun I used to have watching RAW, and, how now, it seems its not so much fun. But, think about it, if you were the Rock, would you even come back for an extended period of time and put up with this crap? Could you imagine Rocky being told by HHH what to do, and Rock allowing himself to look weak/lesser than almighty HHH? I think Rock stays away to avoid that very thing.

And it's not just the Rock I am thinking about. How many of these guys are going to start seeing the writing on the walls, that someday, it's going to be the HHH and Steph show?

What I'm saying is...that with the ratings so far down (at least a million viewers under what it SHOULD be), that Vince could try to bring Rocky back for at least a 2-3 month program to get someone over (Orton, Batista, etc.)...but...if the timing was OK to do so, I seriously think Rock doesn't want to put up with Steph and HHH booking crap. Think about it, if you were Rocky, would you listen to Steph? Better yet, who would Vince side with in a backstage disagreement....HHH or The Rock? Sure, HHH is family and all, but, oh the $$$ Rock has made/can make/will make...

You sonofabitch. That just made me imagine JR making the "oh" expression, but only with one side of his face. Here come the JR "by God that's a slobberknocker" orgasm jokes... "Mah Gawd! Mah Gawd! I think I'm gonna! Aw mah, STONE COLD STONE SO-- Haw! You thought I was fanished, dadn't ya baby? BAH GAWD! MAH GAWD KANG! MAH... GAWD!!! THIS IS THE GREATEST THANG YOU EVER FELT!! KANG!! KANG!! STONE COLD!! I THINK I'M GONNA.... SPLOOGE!!!" I KNEW you'd finish typing it before me. You win... for now. Quik vs. Meatwad IV at the Survivor Series! For only $40! Live! On Pay-per-view! Meatwad, I will break you in half... AND IT'S NOT MY FAULT! And I got quoted in a sig. I love when that happens. So? I'll just lump myself back together and proceed to go all Samurai Lincoln on yo' ass. Dude, then the NMO would trounce yo' ass from outtanowhere!

BTW---sorry about the mistake in the subject line...I hit enter too quick.

Just out of curiousity, when does Dusty show up to shove Ric's face in his donkey?

'Cause taping the Coach/Bishoff/ and Burger King orgy would make me MAD MONEY!!! Plus, they could recap all next week on RAW.

If I go to BK to get the Chikwich...can...umm....I take it over to Bishoffs???

Ok...need some guidance guys...usually after work I head to the bar to catch RAW, have a drink and something to eat, then go home. Should I just go straight home?

I think a good idea would be to continue what happened between Benjamin and McMahon. Have Vince keep showing up, and Shelton can just keep winning CLEAN and "disrespecting" Vince aka "not kiss Vince's ass". Sort of a smooth, new jack version of Stone Cold. Because, if held off properly, a LONGGGGG IC title reign by Shelton, maybe a feud with Vince "ass kisser" Christian(new and fresh), leading into WMXXII with Shelton vs. Orton(your new Austin and Rock!). Start developing Shelton, Randy, Snitsky, and (by moving him into a non gimmick role SLOWLY) Eugene/Dinsmore, and you've got a nice core that can carry things into the future.; Of course, in reality, at WMXXII it'll be HBK vs. HHH in the match to settle the feud that has been boiling since they split up DX and HHH joined the Redcoats during the American Revolutionary War.

<----flies to Ohio, so he can track down Lance Storm....and learn how to be serious for a minute Ya know...since the funny ain't working.

Oh..yeah...I forgot...the Kiddie Ecto Cooler isn't green...it just tastes like EC.

Nahh...it's not the real Ecto Cooler. My version consists of Madori, Malibu, Splash Cap Morgan, and Pineapple Juice. It's looks and tastes like an Ecto Cooler. And, 5 or 6 tall ones make one a happy happy boy and or girl. I go to a punk bar in Seattle all the time and order em (others may know it as a Scooby Snack), at first, it was "whoa...why the chick drink?"...then...and only then...did I say..."No no my tatooed friend, it is an Ecto Cooler.." Now...a Kiddie Version is just Pineapple Juice added to Melon flavored Gatorade.

I swear we used to have a video games folder. Actually...there is one. However, I'm not talking about the game, or about the graphics, or anything really having to do with the game. It is a thread about the descriptions of WWE WRESTLERS from a website, and I spit up my Kiddie Ecto Cooler when I read the Rene Dupree description, then the Edge one. I figured, maybe you'd find it funny too. If not, no loss. Better maybe to start another post about Vince being crazy as hell, right?

Umm...hey Vince, ummm...could you ask Stacy if she figured out who the father is/was yet? Also, umm...when does Smartmarks.com get royalties from giving you the whole idea of a OVW worker who is "special"?

WCW IS NOT/WAS NOT/NEVER WILL BE THE WWE/WWF. The company has good asset to credit, a sub-par but good enoug P/E ratio, and a decent buy rather than sell standing among investors. The company stock is stronger and survived better than alot of the bubble companies of the late 90s early aughts. My point is that, as an entity, it's not going anywhere soon. Vince is a good business man, we all know this. He's no genius, but, he's no Steve Case (look up AOL Time Warner). NOW THAT'S A COMPANY THAT DIED. A 1000 investment in WWE in Jan 2002 would be worth roughly the same now, meaning the company isn't taking off, but, is slow and steady, and a good buy at times would make a decent, solid investment. Wheras an investment in TWX, or Time Warner, would be worth less than WWE. In fact, go back 5 years, WWE is a stonger stock, performance wise. So, the company--GOOD. The writing, absolutely horrible.

I think that the point here is being missed. SK's book is called "The Death of the WWE", but, I don't think it should be seen as "Dead" as in going, going, gone, done. But, more, the death of an era when the company was led by hard-working, talented guys driven by good storytelling, and the right economy/enviroment for such success. The boom 90's allowed Americans to spend on such things. It was a different time and era. That era is dead. The company itself, will always be around. C'mon, how long can Vince sit back and make DVD's and such, books, etc....he's got tons of backlot storage of things like SME(imagine a best of collection of SME's!), and WCW, WWF, ECW,etc. This company will always make money as long as there are wrestling fans with income to spend. Period. Even if the ratings fall to the 2's. Even if there was no Smackdown. Even if RAW was taken off the air. There is a solid 2-3 million person fanbase in the US alone. If just 7% of that base buys 1/2 of the PPVs you are looking at JUST PPV BUY REVENUES OF ALMOST 43 MILLION IN ONE YEAR! Add the live gate revenues of those 7 ppv's, and your up to 50 million dollars. Just off that. Obviously that's just revenue, not profit, but, add in all 14 PPV's, live shows, DVD's, ad revenue, etc.... The company will never die. The creativity, that's been gone for a long time (paging the Invasion!) Ryen

I compare it to the song "Ice, Ice Baby". In the year 2004, I have not gone into a bar where, if available, I play that song at least once. And you know what, people go nuts. Everybody is "rapping" along, and making fun of it. It has an air of freshness to it through respectful badness. The song is some sort of illogical icon of the early 90s now. Snitsky is the "best" part of this "awesome" angle. The facts about this great storyline. *Lita is a slut who f***** Kane to save Matt(way to build Matt up there, hon) *Lita got pregnant from said action by Kane(so...umm...she is supposed to get sympathy how?) *They get married(WWE weddings...a great example why the only marriage amendment in the constitution should be against fake bad marriage angles in wrestling) Now by this point, I was angry. I was fed up. This angle was not entertaining at all. Then, we get this guy I'd never heard of, hitting Kane with a chair. Setting up a miscariage. Remember what Cornette said about these kind of angles? THEY ARE CRAP. And insulting crap at that. I was more insulted by this than the damn necrophilia angle. But...out of this bad, insulting, pointless illogical crap that takes up at least 10-20% of every freakin' RAW in the last few months...comes a catchphrase.... "It's not my fault." Perfect. All of the sudden, this horrible angle, had a centerpoint. This Snitsky guy was sent to do a job (Break of kayfabe there?), and it ISN'T HIS FAULT!!! This horrible angle has now become as much of a joke as Ice Ice Baby. But, remember, this won't draw fans at all. It just entertains a select few of us who appreciate how bad this really is. And, it's not Snitsky's fault. At all. Besides, I cannot wait for the SNITSKY 913 SAYS "I JUST KILLED YOUR BABY" t-shirts.

Expect Bret Hart to also be there, leading an "Invasion" of WWE by ex-superstars, as well. And, Cole and Heidenrichidontgiveafuckifitsspelledright will anal pummel each other on a ladder. Da Meltz Edit...sorry...the first part's supposed to be a quote

And to think...I decided to work instead of going to this crap. Time + 1/2 or Kaaaaaahhhhhhnnnnnnneeeeee??? Easy choice. BTW...if Goldberg came back, and formed a Face team with Orton...could they be.... SENSIBLE SNAFFLES?? Smell the merchandise sales.

If we are going to ask who is the total package, you could group them into the following categories: BRAWLING PROMO WRESTLING (TECHNIQUE) STYLE ENDURANCE OVER (AS HEEL/FACE)--Mark Factor DRAW POWER UNIQUENESS CHARISMA ABILITY TO OVER COME INJURIES/RELIABILITY As far as each of these agoes, I figure that Steve Austin has to be the best package...I'd put him Top 3 in most of those categories...I'd put Flair and Hart in there...personally, I like Jericho in that list somewhere...good to great promo, good style, good endurance and reliable as hell, with outstanding charsima. His only real problem has to be drawing power, which he's never gotten to prove. I'd say Triple H needs some consideration here, even if we don't like him, and of course Eddie, Angle, Benoit, Steamboat, etc... But, Austin does factor more of each of these things then the others do.

I'm still wondering about the whole HHH-Eugene thing. I mean, is Eugene really ready for a feud with Trips? I think a nice good guy stable vs. bad guy stable at SurSer would work great, but, if Edge turns, how would that work? Personally, they are peaking too early with Orton and Eugene. They really need to give months of tension between the parties involved.

Since the header says fantasy DVD, howsabout a DVD with the title of "What Were We Thinking?". It could bascially be a Wrestlecrap DVD of all the bad angles and characters of the last twenty years. You'll get such great moments as: ***Doink vs. Doink ***Undertaker vs. Underfaker ***Lots of Chyna and Lita promos etc etc etc.... you could throw the gimmick match from WMXVII in as well....
