Guest RicFlairGlory Posted July 30, 2002 Report Posted July 30, 2002 I'd mark the fuck out for renaming the group "The Axis of Evil"
Guest notJames Posted July 30, 2002 Report Posted July 30, 2002 "Axis" hearkens back to WWII and images of Hitler and Nazi Germany. I don't think Vince and Co. want to suffer the multitude of angry letters to Titan Towers should they go along with that name. Not that I would be offended, but you know how much Vince loves and cherishes his relationship with the fans...
Guest RavishingRickRudo Posted July 30, 2002 Report Posted July 30, 2002 Why not just call it what it really is... "Just Another faction in the Wwfs vain attempt to get Test over" Look at it: The Corporation, The Union, TnA, The Alliance... WHEN WILL THE MADNESS END?!
Guest Redhawk Posted July 30, 2002 Report Posted July 30, 2002 I'd like to see the Un-Americans be more over-the-top and biting in their criticism of America, but there's only one problem: WRESTLING FANS ARE STUPID. As much as I like this new angle, the more I fear that some grown-up idiot with an American flag in his truck is going to see Christian or Lance Storm somewhere and actually try to shoot them or something. Did you ever see that MTV, "I'm a Pro Wrestler" show? Chyna and HHH were saying that they come across a lot of people who actually think their characters are real and therefore get salty with HHH for beating up Steve Austin or whatever heelish things he did that week. So if the Un-Americans were to go farther, I'd fear for them. That being sad, I like the Traitor idea. But who would be the best person to play the Traitor? I'll suggest a few: Hardcore Holly Bradshaw John Cena or the ultimate guy who'd get MAJOR heat as the Traitor... Jim Ross
Guest MentallyNormal Posted July 30, 2002 Report Posted July 30, 2002 Maybe my Friend Aboot Man can be the next member??
Guest nl5xsk1 Posted July 30, 2002 Report Posted July 30, 2002 Ditch Test, keep it Storm, Jericho, and Christian, and use the Triple Threat moniker (or does S. Douglas own that name?).

Jim Ross Well with his Nash/Hall "shoot" interview, if JR could pull that out against America, well... I'd mark like a little bitch
Guest mach7 Posted July 30, 2002 Report Posted July 30, 2002 They should of called the them "All aboot the Eh Eh" Hey man! Canadians do not say "aboot" ... HOSERS say "aboot." There's a difference! ;p

Guest RavishingRickRudo Posted July 31, 2002 Report Posted July 31, 2002 I get personally offended when Storm doesn't say 'Aboot'. His commitment to his character and national pride is insulting.
Guest deadbeater Posted July 31, 2002 Report Posted July 31, 2002 Storm should have said that I'm proud to be from "Calgary.................................................................... ................................................................................ .........Alberta, Canada". That should get some stuipid amount of heat.
Guest Austin3164life Posted July 31, 2002 Report Posted July 31, 2002 I like the name Canadian Violence Connection for their faction, but I love the direction they are going in. They are getting great airtime and it's looking good and getting heat. I just hope they keep going with this faction and elevate them even further.
Guest TestKick Posted July 31, 2002 Report Posted July 31, 2002 Angle needs to join the Un-Americans... make him even more hated.
Guest mach7 Posted July 31, 2002 Report Posted July 31, 2002 is Alex Wright doing anything? Hopefully he's learning how to work. *snort* ;p
Guest Redhawk Posted July 31, 2002 Report Posted July 31, 2002 Angle needs to join the Un-Americans... make him even more hated. I'd thought about that, but it really doesn't make sense. Angle's whole character is that he THINKS he's this big American hero, when he's really a jerk. I think one reason they took the Un-Americans off of Smackdown is because people would eventually start cheering for Kurt Angle in spite of the Canadians, just because he's so "patriotic." WWE needed to separate them, otherwise it would look dumb if the 2nd-biggest heels on the show were all Anti-American, but then the biggest heel is overly American.
Guest Choken One Posted July 31, 2002 Report Posted July 31, 2002 Seriously, this is another Anti-American angle/gimmick that has been done since the start of the Cold War. USSR is dead and Russia hardly presents itself as a threat these days. The ideal Heel Nation would be Iraq but WWE learned their mistakes in 1991 before AMERICA REALLY HATED SADDAM. That left us with Canada since England is our known buddy and Japan stars can't speak english. Bret Hart did it right and so far Storm has been decent. Look at the title of "HART FOUNDATION" it never said a thing about Canada which is why Pillman (from Norword, Ohio) and Davey Boy Smith (Manchester, England) were able to join. "Storm Connection" or something along those lines work....Who REALLY could work with his intelligence? Val Venis. We all know about his Policital devotion. Put Venis in the group as the intelligent Anti-American.
