Guest Anglesault Report post Posted August 18, 2002 Test has the look, Waterman and EZ Money don't. It sucks, but that's the way it is. Billy Gunn has "the look" too. By the way, Test looks like a horse. If I bring War Emblem into Titan Towers, will Shane befriend it and give it a clean win over Undertaker? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest the pinjockey Report post Posted August 18, 2002 Wasn't Waterman the clone of Scott Steiner basically? Last I heard Steiner had the look. And the only look that Test reminds me of is a 6' 8" Bucky O'Hare. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest RickyChosyu Report post Posted August 18, 2002 Based on my predictions about the match. I have no clue what's really gonna happen in the match, so I can't write a lengthy diatribe on the situation. I feel that Test works better with big men. He had good matches in his series with Kane last year, plus he's had good matches of late with the 10-man on Raw, and his match with Edge. I think Angle & Rey won't be great, because Rey is nothing but flip-flop to me, and I don't think Angle will work well with that considering he's not great with transitions. I also think the match won't get much time. Lengthy diatrabe? BACK UP YOUR POINTS, that's all I asked for, and it appears you knew what I meant, too. His matches with Kane were not good. Neither were his matches with Taker. Neither were his matches with Albert. In fact, they were all bad. Shit, if you just want to use their previous encounters as a measure of their potential together, look no farther than the match they had from Raw last year, where Taker nearly killed the poor guy with his powerbomb and the match sucked regardless. Edge is a big man? Guess I didn't get the memo on that one. As for the ten man, that was extremely well-booked to make Test look strong, as he didn't have to carry the body of the match at all, but merely stand on the apron and look mean. Singles matches are different, as if it even needed to be said. Rey does some flipping, but he's a far smarter worker than anyone gives him credit for, as, when he wanted to, he could work some great, great matches in WCW and continued to impress the hell out of me even after his prime. He's got a helluva lot more experience in building a match than Test, and his ability to tell the "underdog" story while keeping things interesting (ie: he's a good Ricky Morton) is probably his best gift, and he's got a very good mat-game, too, if they chose to go that route. Angle's transitions are, on the contrary, probably one of his greatest attributes in the ring, as he seems to be the master of intricate, heart-wrenching closing sequences. The match could still be a dissapointment if they treat Rey like a joke, but if they wanted to, those two could work a very good match together. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest MaxPower27 Report post Posted August 18, 2002 Man, and I thought that JR fellated Test enough in the Ross Report, now we have Testkick, who is JR personified (on the Smarksboard). How you can say that Test/UnderTaker will be better than Angle/Rey Rey is mind boggling. I swear you're laughing as you're typing this. Test/Taker will suck more than Tammy Sytch during a job inter....ah that's too easy. Seriously, Testkick, stop trolling. Oh, and if Test/Taker gets ***, I will personally apoligize to you on the SmarksBoard. Then, I'll get some rocksalt and sprinkle it on the places that hell just froze over.

Guest saturnmark4life Report post Posted August 18, 2002 I think you people are taking testkick's remarks a little seriously, i think he's jokingly exaggerating his like for test, or he's anglesault. Anyways jester the sig's great n stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest TheZsaszHorsemen Report post Posted August 18, 2002 EZ Money has "the look". He looks like a high flying, hard bumping, cruiserweight workhorse. Of course, I'm probobly biased towards him since he has... ya know... talent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest TestKick Report post Posted August 18, 2002 I think pigs will fly before we see a Test match that is *** or above. Last Raw... and don't say that no credit goes to Test. Test's winning made the match mean more. I think you people are taking testkick's remarks a little seriously, i think he's jokingly exaggerating his like for test, or he's anglesault. Please apologize for comparing me to Anglesault. Man, and I thought that JR fellated Test enough in the Ross Report, now we have Testkick, who is JR personified (on the Smarksboard). Completely unfounded statement. I may like Test, but that doesn't mean I like every wrestler 6'5+. I despise Nash, and wish him a painful death. Bull Buchanan makes me yawn. I just happen to think that Test is very talented for his size, and I simply enjoy his presence and his matches sometimes. How you can say that Test/UnderTaker will be better than Angle/Rey Rey is mind boggling. I swear you're laughing as you're typing this. Test/Taker will suck more than Tammy Sytch during a job inter....ah that's too easy. I think it will be better in my mind, probably not everyone else's. I said why before. Then again, Test could put on a **** match, and people like Anglesault will come up with every excuse possible why Test doesn't deserve credit for it. Seriously, Testkick, stop trolling. *Sigh* Not going with popular opinion does not equal trolling. Varying opinions are what make message boards great. EZ Money has "the look". He looks like a high flying, hard bumping, cruiserweight workhorse. Of course, I'm probobly biased towards him since he has... ya know... talent. Well, WWE obviously thinks EZ Money doesn't have "the look", and who am I to dispute that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Angle-plex Report post Posted August 18, 2002 Last Raw... and don't say that no credit goes to Test. Test's winning made the match mean more. You could tell by the dead silence. I just happen to think that Test is very talented for his size, and I simply enjoy his presence and his matches sometimes. I'm guessing you're blind. I think it will be better in my mind, probably not everyone else's. I said why before. Then again, Test could put on a **** match, and people like Anglesault will come up with every excuse possible why Test doesn't deserve credit for it. He hasn't even put on *** match in 3 years in WWE. What makes you think he can put on a **** match? I despise Nash, and wish him a painful death. Well, no we know who this is......GHAST~!

Guest alfdogg Report post Posted August 18, 2002 Last Raw... and don't say that no credit goes to Test. Test's winning made the match mean more. This is not a biased comment AT ALL. No sir. Please apologize for comparing me to Anglesault. OK, sorry Anglesault. *Sigh* Not going with popular opinion does not equal trolling. No, but being a blithering idiot who's only goal in life is to piss people off on a message board is. If you really don't see why we think you're a troll, there is something wrong with you. Well, WWE obviously thinks EZ Money doesn't have "the look", and who am I to dispute that? aka "I'm eating everything the WWE is feeding me and liking it." Well, no we know who this is......GHAST~!

Guest El Psycho Diablo Report post Posted August 18, 2002 Eh. TestKick, my advice to you would be..well..you're preaching to the wrong crowd. If anything, unlike wrestling, the IWC is a small man's world. Now if Test were six inches shorter, had a bad haircut, and was missing a tooth, well..y'know. IMO, he's an above average worker for a big man. He's not quite as good as Kane is, but he's light years ahead of Bull and Albert. However, the fact is..he'd have to be busting out ***** matches every night to get some sort of recognition around here. It also dosen't help that he's "friends with Shane", and this friendship gives him 'a push every month'. I haven't seen these pushes, but they're apparently out there. (Maybe in the same realm of the GameFAQ's forums 'press conferences' that nobody's ever heard of.) It's allright to be a mark for a wrestler, but don't do it so blatantly that's annoying. (*cough* Something that floats around here, already.) For starters, anything that's not Benoit or Angle is bad. *grin* If you're going to keep at this, I wish you luck converting people to the er..Test side.

Guest -Cutthroat- Report post Posted August 18, 2002 Two big guys, I like Test, he can kick ass and Undertaker is a tough kookie. Yeah, I will be an awsome match up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest TestKick Report post Posted August 19, 2002 What does having no bio information have to do with anything? I doubt many people read my bio, wondering how old I am... It also dosen't help that he's "friends with Shane", and this friendship gives him 'a push every month'. Again, is there ANY evidence of this? I seriously doubt that Vince and his staff say "Well, Andrew is Shane's friend. Let's keep him around for that!" Kurt Angle is friends with Shane... so I guess that's the only reason he's employed in WWE. I know that it was reported that Shane wanted Test to be WCW Champion, but Test never was... so, that comment means nothing. IMO, he's an above average worker for a big man. He's not quite as good as Kane is, but he's light years ahead of Bull and Albert. However, the fact is..he'd have to be busting out ***** matches every night to get some sort of recognition around here. An intelligent point about Test. *GASP* I agree with you totally on what you're saying, I think Kane is extremely athletic for his size. It's allright to be a mark for a wrestler, but don't do it so blatantly that's annoying. (*cough* Something that floats around here, already.) I apologize if I'm coming across that way. I have made other posts concerning other wrestlers, but most have been in this thread replying to people ripping apart Test. If you're going to keep at this, I wish you luck converting people to the er..Test side. I don't care if people like Test, or not. I'm just stating my opinions. 'Tis what a message board is for.

In the last six or so months pre-WWE, from what I gather and what little I've seen Rey's developed that so much into his pacing and his psychology. As for the whole Test thing, there is very little evidence that Test is more than a decent worker period. I mean, how many matches have you seen Test carry the blunt end of? He's a quick big man, I'll give him that, but there's nothing to give him any credit past that. I've actually seen Test, Blackman, and Shane all arrive in the arena together about to years ago at a Key Arena house show if that means anything. El Psycho Diablo, I was wondering why you think so little of Benoit, or is it just an anti-popular sentiment view? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Flyboy Report post Posted August 19, 2002 El Psycho Diablo, I was wondering why you think so little of Benoit, or is it just an anti-popular sentiment view? I can speak for EPD (I think ) because he's a good friend of mine, and we talk anti-Benoit a lot. He thinks Benoit is a great worker, no doubt, BUT he hates Benoit's character. Or chrisma... or lack thereof. He just doesn't like the character, plus the whole "Benoit IS GOD" thing from the Internet wrestling community does annoy him at times.

Guest Brian Report post Posted August 19, 2002 Benoit has a lot of charisma though. It's not rock charisma, it's more of the toned down Eddie, "I can kick your ass and blow snot on your corpse" type charisma. You know, the arrogant heel, the technician who can hit you from any angle, who can work over any bodypart he wants and beat you. The stiff, laying it in because he likes to feel your pain. More than anything, his wrestling, that's what attracts me to like Benoit. If he was ever the silent babyface killer character... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Angle-plex Report post Posted August 19, 2002 I like Benoit, but the man doesn't have any charisma. No, not even ring charisma. He's a GREAT wrestler, one of the best in the WWE, but marks don't care how good of a wrestler he is. Back to Test: He has no charisma OR ring talent, so he's screwed both ways.
