Guest mach7 Report post Posted August 6, 2002 From his latest RAW rant: I mean, what was the point of him going around and questioning everyone when he knew that he was the one who did it all along? What’s the lesson here – he’s so smart that he even fooled himself with that master plan? That he put his best friend through a car window in hopes that Shawn would realize that he needs to manage HHH, so that HHH can protect him? I DON’T GET IT. Don't get me wrong. I hated the segments as much as anyone, but only because they were boring. There IS a reason why HHH was questioning other wrestlers, though. It was to draw attention away from himself and put it onto other "suspects." It doesn't matter if HE knows that he did it. I mean, really. Is it that hard to grasp? Or does Mr. Keith not have an imagination? I can't believe they let this guy publish books when he can't even grasp a simple concept such as this. Right now, I'm embarassed to be a Canadian alongside this dullard. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Crizag Report post Posted August 6, 2002 Right now, I'm embarassed to be a Canadian alongside this dullard. I agree totally...and I enjoy the word "dullard" Keith has this Im "smart"-er than EVERYONE attitude that makes him seem just so...smarmy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Dangerous A Report post Posted August 6, 2002 Another factor is Scott Keith plays favorites and HATES HHH! He is the original HHHater stemming back from his April 2001 essay titled "Smarks vs The Glass Ceiling". Don't get me wrong, I read the man's rants from time to time because he is humorous (most of the time that is). But I do not take his rants as pro wrestling gospel. When reading Keith, you do have to realize he plays favorites heavily(which is something I am afraid will hurt his upcoming book in the long run) and hates passionately. Take Keith rants with a boulder of salt and you'll enjoy life a whole lot more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest jimmy no nose Report post Posted August 6, 2002 Today's rant he just didn't seem to think much. Not only that part, but also he wondered how Triple H couldve attacked Shawn while he was in the ring. He could have easily done it then gone to the ring after.

Guest saturnmark4life Report post Posted August 6, 2002 yeah, but the whole thing about this angle (like he said) was that hhh was the only one who it COULDN'T have been, giving some sense of intrigue to the whole thing. Even if we all knew he'd admit to putting show up to it later. He was the prime suspect until it happened, when it couldn't have been him. What's the point of writing him out of it and giving a whole new list of suspects if it was going to be him anyway? I'd make a comment that this wasn't the original idea and that he had it changed, but that would just be old now wouldn't it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Just call me Dan Report post Posted August 6, 2002 I don't understand the footage. In the first shot, there was clearly no one there and in the second shot HHH magically appeared. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But what's the point of drawing attention away from yourself if you're just going to admit to doing it 2 hours later (ignoring the "compelling" TV excuse)? I can see if they dragged it out for a few weeks, but doing like they did was just a waste of time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest papacita Report post Posted August 6, 2002 I think it would've been more interesting if HHH had just come out and said it at the top of the show, giving his "abusive husband" excuse, then giving Shawn until the end of the show to choose whether or not he wants to be his manager (although we know he'd say no anyway), and in the end, Shawn comes out and either makes the challenge for the match, challenges HHH to the match at SummerSlam, or challenges HHH to the match and gets attacked. I dunno, just an idea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can see if they dragged it out for a few weeks, but doing like they did was just a waste of time. In storyline terms, I highly doubt HHH was going to admit it at all. In storyline terms, he only admitted it because they had him on video.. But I get what you're saying, and frankly they were going to do it regardless and I'm glad they did it in ONE night rather than a span of 7 million months.

Guest Si82 Report post Posted August 7, 2002 This has nothing to do with the angle. It has everything to do with using your imagination. It has everything to with the angle. It was long, boring, pointless and it seemed abivious to me that it was going to be Triple H all along. People didn't need to use there imaginations because the way Triple H was plasted all over Raw this week it was so obivious it was going to be him to set up a match with his broken down buddy. I hope karma manages to catch up with them during the match. As for Scott Keith I will admit the man is too cynical for his own good and does play favourites (but I agree with most of them) but he is still an entertaining writer. He just needs to lighting up and lose the "smarter-than-you" attitude that he has. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Mystery Eskimo Report post Posted August 7, 2002 Scott Keith rules. Nuff said. Yup. Sure he's a little harsh but he gives praise when praise is due. The whole HHH thing was a farce. Why waste TV time on him questioning people when he admits it was him (on ridiculously contrived evidence) on the same night? Not shocking, just stupid.

Guest Strike Force! Report post Posted August 8, 2002 Scott Keith doesn't like anyone who's name is not: -Chris Benoit -Dynamite Kid -Owen Hart -Steve Austin -Ricky Steamboat -Eddie Guerrero Plus, he takes wrestling too seriously. He's an elitist. It's ok to be an elitist about something, but don't be elitist about something so dorky as pro wrestling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest saturnmark4life Report post Posted August 8, 2002 What the hell's wrong with having favourites? I can't believe what i'm reading here. If you guys don't like him, why the fuck do you care what match ratings he gives? His rants are opinion based, that's the idea. The only time i've ever seen him play favourites in any serious way is when he's joking, like in the rvd/benoit match. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Strike Force! Report post Posted August 8, 2002 In all seriousness, there's nothing wrong with having your favorites. Nothing at all. It's just that a guy comes across as a tool when he says, "If you can't do the finisher right, don't do it at all." That's an actual quote from one of his rants. When a guy tries to make himself to be an insider by insinuating that he knows better than the ACTUAL WRESTLER on how to do a move, that's a joke. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've seen many people say that in regards to wrestler's finishers. Honestly, if you constantly blow what's supposed to be a trademark move, then you should probably either work harder at it or drop it altogether. Personally, I don't see how Keith is wrong there. Hell, most of the board has dissed finishers that were either botched(like Taker's Last Ride a few times) or just don't work at all(Walls of Jericho, Breakdown).

SK Hates Taker...therefore I HATE SK This has been the Taker Mark™ Yep,I've seen a picture of him.He's pretty big too,he looks like the guy who plays Cameron Diaz's brother in "There's Something About Mary". (and I mean that in terms of size and looks,I'm not saying he looks handicapped and I mean no offense to handicapped people). And that brings me to something else.Sometimes SK will go on about how Nash or 'Taker are out of shape,and old, and lazy etc. But the thing is they're both in better shape in their 40's then SK is in his late 20's. I wonder if he reads this stuff........ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
