Time For Roster Cuts?

[Guest cobainwasmurdered]

Alright the wwf has what a 100 wrestlers working for them? the thing is most of them aren't doing much 'working'. The WWF might be to big for it's own good having wrestlers that are desrving not being able to get tv time and/or having undeserving wrestlers under contract.

 

So who do You the smarks readers think deserve to go, for whatever reason(untalented, not a good fit,etc.) and not just current wwf stars, if the letters WWFE appear on their contracts their eligable.

[Guest Tony149]

Billy Gunn, Godfather, Goldust. Those are a few I can think of.

[Guest goodhelmet]

"We'll call Group #1 The WWF

and

We'll call Group #2 FIRED"

 

bps has the solution right there!!!!

[Guest n/a]

Need to take out:

 

Albert

Test

Jazz

Trish

Hardcore Holly

Crash Holly

Steve Blackman

Big Boss Man

X-pac

Debra

Steven Regal (at least in a wrestling role)

Micheal Cole (in an announcers role)

Jim Ross (in an announcers role)

Jerry Lawler (period)

Godfather

Bradshaw

Nash

Rikishi

Ivory

Lita

All McMahons (on camera)

 

That's enough for now.

[Guest bps "The Truth" 21]

I know it seems like shilling...

 

but it is kind of amazing how many topics that article was able to fit in to.

[Guest cobainwasmurdered]

oh gee BPS i must have missed that coluom, because i never normally miss your stuff. (and no i'm not being sarcastic)

I'd love to see them fire debra without pissing off austin.

[Guest goodhelmet]

i don't remember but did you make sure to put Hall, Hogan, and Nash in the FIRED category?

[Guest Tony149]

I would also like to add Rikishi to my list. This guy hasn't done a thing, but shove his ass in peoples faces.

[Guest bps "The Truth" 21]

Oh yeah...the NWO is gone.

[Guest Tony149]

The nWo won't get cut. Maybe Hall, but the others stay away.

[Guest cobainwasmurdered]

i want rikishi to get fired but as long as he keeps backing that ass up, pat patterson will make sure he keeps his job. every thread should have a pat patterson joke.

 

oh and GOODHELMET i don't think they should fire Hall, he's been doing suprisingly well so far, and i've enjoyed his promo's which is wierd since i'm used to his joker promo's and not the badass promo's. but the other two well............ they need to start looking to the WWA for employment in my opinion.

[Guest goodhelmet]

"i don't think they should fire Hall, he's been doing suprisingly well so far, and i've enjoyed his promo's which is wierd since i'm used to his joker promo's and not the badass promo's"

 

only problem is I haven't seen him work in the ring. Mania will go a long way in determining if Hall is worth a shit or  not.

On that note, I think it is imperative that every match Hall wrestles should be a ladder match. The stipulation should be mandatory for him. If not, FIRE him!

 

"they need to start looking to the WWA for employment in my opinion."

 

while their ppv was shitty, the cruiser match gave me hope that there would be an outlet for that kind of thing. Keep the dinosaurs away from the wwa. Hogan and Nash can go on Bubba Sponge every week until they die as long as they don't step into another ring on American soil again.

[Guest teke184]

BPS has a good solution, but I think that some names should be kept around (possibly in the farm system) and brought back later.

 

Definate keeps:

 

Benoit

Jericho

Austin

HHH

Rock

Rhyno

RVD

Kidman

Hurricane

Tajiri

Booker T

Christian

Edge

TAKA

Funaki

Angle

Storm

Flair

Scotty II Hotty

Spike

 

 

Possible Keeps

 

HBK (If he comes back as a performer and doesn't suck, keep him.  Otherwise, he's a drain on the payroll)

Raven (Is he physically capable of working good non-hardcore matches anymore?)

Saturn (Possibly canned if he beats up a 4th jobber)

Albert (has potential, but little heat)

Al Snow

Bob Holly

Regal (mainly for promos)

Chavo (haven't seen many of his matches, so I can't make a definitive call)

DDP

Bradshaw (if he can survive as a singles wrestler)

Tazz (not sure what to do with him)

Val Venis

 

 

Possible Fires

 

Hardyz (too stale)

Steven Richards (Seems incapable of finding a decent role in the WWF)

Stasiak

Dudleyz (too stale)

Faarooq

Crash Holly

Hall (can work, but a walking PR nightmare if he falls off the wagon)

Test (Heatsink.  Hasn't been moving forward since late 1999)

Kane (too stale)

Billy Gunn

Chuck Palumbo

Tommy Dreamer (too messed up to work anymore)

Justin Credible (only to be kept as a tag wrestler)

 

 

Definite Fires

 

Haku

Bossman

Undertaker

Hogan

Nash

Goldust

Godfather

X-Pac

Rikishi

 

 

I'm sure I'm missing some, but this is a decent breakdown of where the problem areas are.  Unfortunately, a lot of the wrestlers I want fired are getting a lot of TV time right now (Taker, nWo, Ambiguously Gay Duo, Goldust, etc)

[Guest cobainwasmurdered]

well if i had "the brass to fire your ass" i'd fire:

 

undertaker

x-pac

big show

test

val venis

goldust

jazz

justin credible

kane

kurt angle(kidding anglesault)

oh there's so many more i think i'm starting to go mad with power...

[Guest Brian]

Every time a group of people get cut, it ends up being the workers. Unfortunately, there's no real point in discussing this because we all know who will be left when the smoke clears.

[Guest Tony149]

Test will forever have a job since he friends with Shane.

[Guest cobainwasmurdered]

damn it that's true which means so will steve blackman, if i was hogan,nash, and hall i'd start sucking up to shane-O-Mac.
