The One and Only Smackdown Thread for 11/21/02

Whoa, Bull Buchanan looked good there. He looks in awesome shape now. It sort of looked like Stamboli at first.

[Guest El Satanico]

In that new Smackdown video game why do cars EXPLODE when you run your opponent into them?

 

That's extremely stupid

[Guest snowfan]

How much longer does Rikishi have on his contract? Could they please fire his ass?

Nah I think he has a use, just not the one he is in.

 

From all accounts he is actually one of the gentlest workers in his weight class and really good at helping guys look like they are manhandling him.

 

Vince needs to go ahead and have him stinkface the whole family 100 times each "just to get it out of their system" and retire the damn thing and have him be "Yoko light" after Yoko was "just a worker".

What ever happened to the Waylon Mercy like character they had planned for Bull Buchanan? That might have been pretty cool.

[Guest BoboBrazil]

Rikishi has been loyal to the WWF/E for almost 10 years if not longer from when he was in the headshrinkers and his family goes back generations with the McMahons. He still gets a decent pop from the crowd for doing that played out gimmick too. He isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

[Guest BoboBrazil]

They had a Waylon Mercy type character planned for him? I don't remember hearing anything about that. The last time I saw Bull was about 2-3 months ago when he did a couple of Velocity matches.

[Guest Ram]

"Forget any spots...screw up in the match."

 

Alright, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, FREE KAYFABE. The show would be a lot easier to watch if they didn't try and remind me it's preplanned. Jesus.

[LaParkaYourCar 0]

Okay they need to atleast drop the stinkface and stop putting him over young talent when he's not going to be moving up the ladder anytime soon.

 

Lilian Garcia sings Torrie's song? I didn't know that.

Hey Ram we agree on something.

 

It is no fun when THEY don't pretend there is SOME reality to it.

Big Show should wrestle in a suit and pants.

 

Oh yeah.. they should do Brock v. Big Show II on the new Smackdown game

 

maybe Brock wouldn't break Big Show's spine on the game

I remember reading somewhere that they wanted to give him that gimmick. I heard this before he came back.

Waylon Mercy was cooler than Fritos...

[Guest snowfan]

"I'll sue you..."

 

more Federal heat...

Waylon Mercy would have ruled if he hadn't got injured right off the bat.

Yup...imagine him and Austin going at it...

 

that would have been some good writing material and angles...

[Guest BoboBrazil]

Maybe I should go play Smackdown after Tough Enough and play Big Show vs Brock. I can F5 Big Show off the Smackdown Fist through a table

You can get on top of the fist in the game?

[Guest BoboBrazil]

Yeah, I haven't tried it yet, but others have. There is supposed to be a crack on the side of the wall you climb up to get to it. People have made videos of them doing 5 star frog splashes off of it to people stacked on 2 tables and doing other crazy stuff off it.

[Guest Kamui]

It's been a pretty good show so far- nothing stellar or anything, just pretty good.

 

I like the way they're handling Show as Champion- Paul wearing the belt and everything, it's very obvious to even the densest of marks that the only reason Big Show is the WWE Champion is because of Paul Heyman, which is a good thing and will only build Brock's face heat when he pins Show at Armageddon.

Atleast they put pants on the Big Show nowdays.

[Guest Kamui]

And hey, "Big Show Sucks" chants is certainly better than apathy, right?

Cole: "This is Big Show's first defense of the title since winning it four days ago"

 

It's a good thing Cole is here to give us this information.

Is that X-Pac hate or heel heat?

Same with "I think Paul Heyman is MOCKING Brock Lesnar!" a full minute after Paul starts doing the 'stationary jog' thing.

Xpac heat morphing into simple apathy...

 

there are people in the front row ignoring the ME and talking to each other...

[Guest Kamui]

Pushing Big Show as a Heel Champion that can't win without Heyman (as seen by Edge spearing him and nearly getting the pin tonight) rather than the usual Monster Heel a 7-footer would be is VERY smart, considering the fact that no fan would buy Big Show as a Monster Heel Champion after all the years of jobbing.

 

-Duo

[Guest El Satanico]

Pretty sad when Heyman is the only entertaining thing in the main event.

[Guest snowfan]

that was a POP!

[LaParkaYourCar 0]

F5 again!!!!!

 

Well does this mean Heyman will sue?

Scott wants to pay $2000 for John's visitation rights so he can bring a girl he hasn't seen in 4 years up to the house?
