Austin is a different type piece of shit than Shawn though. While Shawn was a dipshit who refused to job, was a whiner, and general shit stirrer....I don't recall him beating his wife or anything. I can't help but think that the Austin/Stacy incident last night will have some kind of repercussions in the storyline. As in Linda will come out and say Austin is letting his violent tendencies against women from his home life spread into the workplace, and this will be a good reason to fire him as GM.

I honestly think WWE has to be reconsidering this whole Chavo heel turn and feud with Eddie. Since Chavo has been back he has SOOOO not been over and isn't remotely worth turning to feud with Eddie at this point. All that angle would do is hurt Eddie's momentum. I'd like to hear the excuses for NOT jobbing out Lesnar to Eddie in that match. Unless Eddie still has the US and tag belts, which I kinda doubt. Oh god does that mean he's gonna job to the Show at the PPV? The HHH/GB rematch is intriguing, but it's pointless to do it this soon. If HHH is going away again he'll likely be jobbing again via the Orton run in.

Yeah from what I noticed at the now notorious Louisville house show this past week was that the ECW guys (RVD, Dudleys) are easily the best at working a crowd and getting the audience into a match.

I can't say I could really rate Dynamite since I have only seen his WWF tag stuff with Davey Boy. Some of those comments about Flair being unimaginative are pretty funny from Bret, considering that he spent half his career doing "The 5 Moves of Doom."
-
I think what Meltzer meant earlier about the whole "Shane's leg will be broken" comment is that someone will retaliate for Shane breaking Test's leg at the house show (which I saw in person). It's strange too because the other day I was commenting on how Shane seriously needs to watch himself in the ring....someone's eventually gonna get sick of him and take him out legit.

What are your favorite death scenes of all-time?
cabbageboy replied to TheOriginalOrangeGoblin's topic in Television & Film
First off, Isaac Hayes DOES NOT die in I'm Gonna Git You Sucka. Bernie Casey clearly states later than the bullets missed every vital organ and he would be ok. I've seen that movie about 1000 times. To me, death scenes begin and end with Cagney: --The legendary "top of the world!" ending to White Heat. --His chilling phony coward act as he goes to the chair in Angels With Dirty Faces. --Dying on the church steps at the end of the Roaring Twenties. --Not exactly ONE scene but I like how he shoots everyone in the Public Enemy and comes out riddled with bullets..."I ain't so tough...." then falls down in the gutter. Next scene they deliver his dead body to his front door and his brother opens it. -
I was at the house show and can tell you RVD wasn't in the ring at all during the Shane Terminator finish. It was just a garbage can against Test's head.
-
Yeah the previews don't do the film justice I don't think. It looked kinda cheesy in the preview but man that movie was super charged with energy. Made the Matrix Reloaded seem like boring shit. Tarantino is a genius, no doubt. He's insane of course, but a genius.

Well I did admit it was a guilty pleasure and I'm not real proud of myself for being amused by the Eddie/Show angle. I also liked the burrito angle last week because: 1. Getting sick off bad Mexican food is realistic (it's happened to me). 2. I've often wondered what a wrestler would do if he had to shit during a match.
-
Well, I was another who did like this angle. It was an admitted guilty pleasure however.
-
I don't really have any problem with Sable being Vince's designated whore of the month. But the thing that blows my mind is the fact that they apparently haven't given any thought to resigning Mark Mero, despite the OBVIOUS angles they could do. Let's see: 1. Vince is now fucking his wife (or is it now ex wife?). 2. Brock Lesnar is using his old TKO as a finisher and calling it the F5. How hard could it be to come up with some decent angles out of that?
-
Oh yeah that is one of the main things I noticed on SMDN. Chavo's attempts at humor by joking on the Show just completely tanked. He just doesn't have the charisma. I think I mentioned this a while ago when a similar thread popped up, but an Eddie/Chavo feud will do nothing but keep Eddie mired in the midcard at this point. SMDN desperately needs new main event guys and Eddie is at the top of the list. A feud with Chavo, especially one where Chavo gets the better of Eddie (and you know Eddie would have no problem jobbing to his nephew) would hurt Eddie's career. The fans don't perceive Chavo as being on the same level as Eddie.

Jackie Brown was pretty good but there was something a bit more....subdued about it? It seemed a step down from his previous stuff, but still good.
-
I've never really seen that much that was violent in Pulp Fiction either. It's not so much consistently violent as it was sprinkled with a few VERY memorable acts of violence. Tarantino has always been more about characterization and stagy type violence than outright wild action scenes and fights. I think that's why I enjoyed the hell out of FDTD when it came out....Tarantino's script provided some wild characters and dialogue, Rodriguez brought the action chops.

House Show Business must really be that bad...
cabbageboy replied to tpww7's topic in The WWE Folder
I remember a March 1993 house show where they had piped in cheers. Can you imagine hearing piped in cheers for Tito Santana (at this point he was on his last legs getting jobbed out)? It boggles my mind that they would have piped in cheering at a HOUSE SHOW. That said, I think we did get a decent Bret/Bigelow match on that card. Of course we also got Tatanka and Giant Gonzalez. -
I was actually quite disappointed in this movie when it came out. The whole major plot twist with Andrea just made ZERO sense to me (The Phantasm was shown lifting up 300 lb. men with ease...how the hell could she do all that?). That said I used to love the animated series. I always liked it better than any of the live action movies.

Nevermind El and The Bride, how about a From Dusk Till Dawn and Mariachi crossover with Clooney and Banderas just killing the shit out of vampire drug lords or something? It would rule, admit it....hell the scenario is even easy: Clooney gets to El Rey after FDTD, where he finds that the vampires have spread from the Titty Twister to the town itself. El Mariachi is also there to find the drug lord who killed his ______(fill in the blank with whatever relative you want). The drug lord and his henchmen are all vampires. Hell throw in Cheech in his role as Carlos the dealer and of course Danny Trejo as a thug and you have money in the bank.

I've always had the exact opposite opinion. I'm going to a house show on Friday at Broadbent Arena (which is sad since they can't remotely fill Freedom Hall here in Louisville nowdays). A house show is a basically meaningless night of action mostly for the die hard fans. The TV taping shows are much better, important things actually happen on them. More than a house show anyway.

No one has ever mentioned him but I think Cary Elwes would be a cool Bond. He'd be more in the Moore vein of blond pretty boy types though.
-
Maybe someone should do a bounty to take out HHH instead of Goldberg? Haha.
-
You all act like this stuff hasn't ever happened. I can think of a time when Nash had the title and was defending against a talentless fat black guy (Mabel). I'm utterly bewildered at the main event tonight. Some people are probably more disgusted by the Shane/Kane thing but that has become a standard crazy angle and I don't blink. With the main event, I mean good god how hard is it to grasp that Mark Henry is just the sort of musclebound fat fuck that Goldberg can squash without jobbing out actual talent?
-
Well, the whole Bret/Flair thing was kinda confusing really. It might have been a late era Prime Time TV taping but I don't recall that match ever being on TV. I only have it on some sort of comp tape they put out. See, sometimes on TV tapings there are dark matches. I remember a Raw taping in 1995 where the main event was Sid/Diesel for the title in a cage, but it was AFTER Raw had taped. It was about 4 minutes long as well, with Nash kicking Sid in the face and pinning him. Suffice to say it wasn't until 1999 that I went to another show!

Spoiler (Highlight to Read): Nah, the Sauron/Aragorn stuff has all but been proven to be a false rumor. theonering.net and Ain't It Cool News have both debunked this for the most part. It was originally in an early draft however, might have even been filmed and Jackson didn't like it, so he cut it. Kahran, I think that the whole Frodo/Gollum stuff with Gollum biting his finger and taking the ring could happen with Sauron being there. Sauron could perhaps go for the ring, Gollum lunges out and bites Frodo's finger right as Sauron is about to grasp it, Gollum then falls into the volcano. Sauron is like "Aw shit" and then vaporizes/explodes. I think that would be a helluva ending.

Trust me, Jim Ross didn't say anything like "RVD won't EVER be world champion." If he ever did it would be a pure accident and what he would mean is that RVD is the best guy who hasn't won it yet. Seriously, this has got to be some sort of long running angle doesn't it? As in JR keeps saying it and then RVD finally gets his big breakout win.

As far as this Jericho/Eddie debate, I will go so far as to say Eddie is better on the mic than Jericho in addition to better in the ring. Jericho has basically his one wiseass schtick he can do on the mic. He rarely can do an intense promo without sounding whiny. Eddie can do comedy promos (such as his great grandma coming to America), intense "pissed off Mexican" promos (when Cena stole and/or vandalized his car), or sleazy insincere promos (his justification for turning on Tajiri). Jericho can occasionally do a good intense promo (such as his rant at the Rock that he isn't a joke), but for the most part the mic work I've always liked from him is his smart ass stuff.
