Is the world coming to an end?

[Guest Jobber of the Week]

The fact that the item was actually labelled as Ass Cream just made the whole thing click for me.

 

I don't know about you guys, but I would have branded that whole segment as more stupid Jackass shit with the male nudity and whatnot, but the big can clearly labeled "Ass Cream" was just so over the top I didn't care what happened afterwards.

[Guest AfricanAmerican]

So umm.. the dudleys thru jerichristian's clothes into the crowd...

 

but did they also throw their wrestling gear along with that.. if so what will christian wear next week

[Guest EricMM]

Hurricane: "It seems your bags have been heisted!"

 

Christian: "How could you let that happen? YOU'RE A CRIME FIGHTER!"

 

Gold!

[Guest FeArHaVoC]

As for the Jericho / Christian stuff, I thought that it was generally amusing when the Chris' were running the bit, but as usual the Dudleys are poison to me.

I'm guessing it was suppose to be Booker T & Goldust in that position. It was said on WWE.com that it was the Chris' Vs Booker T/Goldust and Buh Buh Dudley Vs Rico.

 

Booker T got sick so the Dudley's were givin' that spot.

 

btw, it's about God Damn time I've been able to get back on this board. All Damn weekend and all Monday, I haven't been able to sign on and kept getting that "Error" Reading.

When has Triple H ever been portrayed as someone who thinks he's a big star when he's really not? When has Triple H ever been portrayed as being out of his league against an opponent? When does J.R. not suck up to Triple H by saying he's "That Damn Good" and he's "The Game" over and over again?

 

How come other heels are not portrayed in the same manner? Instead, when Jericho boasts about how great he is, he gets mocked by the announcers. Why don't they push it that even though Jericho has a big ego, he has the credentials to back it up like they have engrained in everyone mind when it comes to Triple H?

 

As for Katie Vick, last I checked RAW still revolved around Triple H while Kane was jobbing to Triple H's newest sidekick in 2 minute matches.

Very good point. Even the venerable Ric Flair has been known to don the "delusional heel" hat from time to time, but HHHeMan seems invulnerable to it. No wonder RAW has no credible heels, especially with Jericho RIGHT THERE.

 

Like others, I thought the skit went way too long and didn't provide an adequate payoff. Oh look, Christian and Jericho are naked. Oooh, I'll bet they're mad. This is the funniest shit I've ever seen. And no, I'm not being sarcastic. Really. [insert rolling eyes here]

 

This "feud" between the champs and the challengers has been botched at every turn. Why do the "stop and restart" thing? Is it because they want to show they can match up wrestling-wise with SmackDown's tag scene without being seen as copycatting? Shit, man, call a spade a spade and do a 2-out-of-3 falls match. None of this pussyfooting just to establish Sean Morley as yet another useless figurehead.

 

And how about the stellar acting by the lockerroom boys? Were they in on the joke? Because they didn't act like it. Apart from Helms, no one even batted an eye once C&C went ballistic over the "heist". If they truly wanted them to look like half-naked goofs, those guys should have been snickering, pointing, anything to convey the comedy inherent in the scene. And not for nothing, but Helms sorely needs both a dialect coach and acting lessons, because his accent and timing will surely cement him in the midcard 4 life.

 

And how hard is it to just say the Dudleys want the titles for the sake of being the champs? Why try to play them up as fun-loving jokesters ala E&C when clearly they're better suited as bruiser shitkickers with a penchant for ultraviolence? This shit got old the minute Buh Buh figuratively twirled his curly moustache and told D-Von about his fiendish plot for revenge. Why take their bags when you can just ambush them in the shower and leave them laying in a pool of bathwater and blood?

 

Obviously, the only saving grace is C&C's comic timing. Of course, it's only foreshadowing the inevitable title loss at the PPV, wherein they'll be shunted further down the pecking order. Or at the least, Christian will be left pissing in the wind while Jericho is brought up just far enough up the card to provide a timely job for whoever else needs his rub.

 

I of course blame it on Booker T. How dare he get sick and make them change gears like that? For shame.

[Guest Spaceman Spiff]

But if your idea of humor is random lame Nickelodean teen shows then fine.

 

Whoa, hold up, Nickelodeon has some of the greatest shows of all time. Salute Your Shorts, Hey Dude, Doug, Rugrats, Clarissa Explains it All, Roundhouse, and the greatest TV show ever, Pete & Pete.

You Can't Do That on Television beats all those shows. Only Pete & Pete give You Can't a run for the money.

[Guest Razor Roman]

Sign at the next PPV:

 

"They're fighting over Ass Cream"

 

 

:-)

 

Also, did anyone notice J.R. asking Lawler if it was "Gerwertz brand Ass Cream"?

[Guest papacita]

Hell, Jericho jobbed clean to Chyna. That's probably more embarassing than being stripped naked in the long run.

Ahhh cram it with walnuts, ugly! :gives bcu the finger:

 

Anyway, even though I don't think the towel stuff should've taken up half the time it did, Chris and Christian made it work, which is just a testament to how great both guys really are (seriously, push them to ME now). And the "ass cream" thing had me dying for a good 10 minutes. Sure, they could've said Preparation H or something like that, but the joke would've lost some of the effect if they had done so. Ass cream was just so damn stupid and random that I just couldn't help but to laugh. Shit, I'm still laughing.

[Guest Cataclysm911]

I thought that RAW was terrible, and didn't even chuckle at a single segment. The Dudley Boyz are my second favorite tag team of all-time, only trailing the Fabulous Freebirds. Of course, I like the Dudleyz because of their heel stint in ECW. This WWE babyface shit has got to go. Who cares if they get an hour of T.V. time when they are faces? I mean, they can't use vulgar language towards the crowd to get babyface heat! In fact, they can't use vulgar language anyway, and that was one of the big things that helped them get over in ECW.

 

Also, The Dudley Death Drop (3D) looks a lot better when it's just done normally. I never like when they do it through a table.. like the one Rico took at Survivor Series.

 

One of the reasons why I like the Dudleyz as a heel team is because it's easy to hate them. "Damn that Bubba!" You can really get behind the face team, and boo the Dudleyz.. then if the Dudleyz hit 3D, you're like "Damnit!, Damn you Dudleyz!" because you know that's match.

 

<-- "heel" Dudley Boyz "mark"

Something I read up about this skit...

 

Apparently, it was gonna be Goldust and Booker T that would be the ones stealing the clothing in that skit originally.

 

However, because Booker was too damn sick to work that night, they had the Dudleyz doing it insted.

 

...I could see Goldust giving the idea for stealing Jericho and Christian's clothing, actually.

[Guest Hitman Jebus]

Hurricane: "It seems your bags have been heisted!"

 

Christian: "How could you let that happen? YOU'RE A CRIME FIGHTER!"

 

Gold!

yes, pure gold!!!

 

 

That line single-handedly made this RAW the best one in a loooonnnnggggggg time!

Yeah, but would Booker's delivery of the "ass cream" line work as well?

 

BTW, Vyce, I'm glad to see someone has put my little filecard creator over on JoeCustoms to good use. Keep up the good work! ;-)

[Guest BaldFish]

In all fairness, I thought the concept of Ass Cream brand Ass Cream was incredibly funny--but in a cartoonish way. Which is, I think, what they're going for.
