WWF REAL competion idea

[Guest Risk]

What if Heyman pulled an ECW and got the HWA/OVW to distance itself from the WWF and become independant?  That would really ruin the WWF's future plans and give them real competition.

[Guest Tony149]

Doubt it. Maybe if one broke away. Nobody can compete with the WWF if they don't have somebody with money backing them.

[Guest Risk]

Shane could buy the WCW name from Vince and buy OVW or HWA, then get Heyman to come with him and use the WCW name.

[Guest Tony149]

Is that storyline or do you think Shane would really turn on his Dad to compete with them?

[Guest Risk]

I didn't say Shane would, but he should.  Not turning on his dad, helping him to get better by trying to give him competition.  Vince NEEDS real competition.

[Guest Anglesault]

Yo, you seem to be confusing story lines and reality. I suggest you take some time off from Wrestling. Shane and Paul work for the WWF. The OVW and HWA are loyal farm systems. They are not all pulling a swerve.

 

EDIT: Oh, yeah, Shane is Vince's son. Forgot to put that in.

[Guest The Masked Yodeler]

I think it's more likely that Austin will bolt and use his major name value and his money to try a start up a la Maeda leaving NJPW to form UWF.

I'm not confusing anything.  I know Shane and Paul work for the WWF.  The point was that by doing this, Shane would help his father get better by giving him competition.  Why do you have to be so condesending?

[Guest Tony149]

I could see Austin leaving to help start up some new promotion. Especially now that it's been reported that him and Vinnie Mac didn't agree on something.

[Guest Anglesault]

I'm not being condesending, I'm being realistic. It was a stupid idea. Vince doesn't want competion, he sure as fuck doesn't want it from his son, and on that point, how on earth would a company run by THE MAN'S SON be considered competion? Shane isn't going to make something better than the WWF.

[Guest The Masked Yodeler]

Plus a Shane-run fed would be main evented by Test and Steve Blackman.

JEE-SUS! Actually, didn't Shane want to give Suck the WCW title?

[Guest El Satanico]

A "turn" by OVW/HWA could be a way to do the split in the storyline. It would be a good way to use the split fed as the fed for younger guys and slightly more wrestling oriented. Having the guys turn on WWF and Vince because he won't let them on tv would be a good way for them to use the cruiser division like they keep claiming that they are going to do. However i wouldn't hold my breath on that scenario happening.

 

But i agree that it's a bit insane to suggest that it could or would happen in real life. The only way that it would happen is if Ted Turner led the mutiny with Heyman or whoever from WWF. Hell Vince may even have something in the contracts with both feds that would stop anything like that from happening.

[Guest Risk]

You KNOW Turner WILL try to get back at Vince in SOME way.  McMahon and Turner have big egos, neither will let the other win, and I doupt Turner will just give up after fighting with Vince so long.

[Guest Tony149]

It's already been reported Turner tried to buy 51% of the XWF. I wouldn't be surprised if Turner or the guy who owns Fox got into the business.

[Guest Risk]

Turner should merge the XWF and the WWA with a new name and champions.  He could destroy Vince under his nose.

[Guest The Vanilla Midget]

to the person who suggested shane turn on vince legit, are you fucking nuts? shane is vince's son, and despite not wanting to compete with him, if he pulled a stunt like that he would stand to lose his inheritence, and while he may be an idiot in loving test, he isnt braindead.  also, shane would still have to answer to vince probably, and it wouldnt provide real competition, rather token competition.  also, the idea would be kiled off if by any chance the other fed started taking the wwf's audience or rivalling it in popularity.

[Guest El Satanico]

Ted Turner, Rupert Mudoch(Fox owner) or any millionaire that dislikes Vince backing a fed is the only way anyone will truly be a threat to WWF.

 

Be interesting if a few NFL owners got together and pumped money into a fed just to try giving Vince a big "fuck you" for all the NFL bashing done during the XFL hype. It would never happen but would still be interesting.

[Guest wrestlemaniac16]

I don't think it's a bad idea, but it does have holes. Also it would be invasion 2. Not only that but we have the NWO.

[Guest Anglesault]

Holes that you could drive a Mack truck through...

[Guest The Vanilla Midget]

well, things mack trucks drive through seem to fix themselves quickly in the wwf, case in point are the rocks ribs.

[Guest Anglesault]

Technically, since the truck only dented the ambulence, it didn't go through

[Guest cobainwasmurdered]

hey he wasn't healed he had a BANDAGE on! that's world class selling guys, only the rock would sell getting rammed by a mack truck like that.

[Guest goodhelmet]

I didn't know the Rock knew how to sell!

 

As for the WWF's competition, it would have to come from another mega media conglomerate, but since the WWF is so shitty right now, it's killing interest in wrestling as a whole. If, and it's a big if, the WWF can start building up their audience again then it might be possibl a media group would be interested in another wrestling company. Whether it will be successful and if it can compete with Vince is another story. If Jeremy Borash was booking, I'd say no!

Suppose that did happen, ya little fagamuffin ... HWA and OVW are only really known to people in the area and those who frequent sites like "The Smarks."  Any "names" those guys have down there are pretty much all WWF, and would get pulled out if this ever happened.  Course there could be some legal loophole that would make the developmental contracts turn over to the new promotion, but I doubt it.

 

I didn't say Shane would, but he should.  Not turning on his dad, helping him to get better by trying to give him competition.  Vince NEEDS real competition.

 

I don't think he would see that as his son trying to help him get better.  I'd think he'd be pretty about something like that.

 

 

.... how on earth would a company run by THE MAN'S SON be considered competion? Shane isn't going to make something better than the WWF.

 

I don't see how Shane being the son automatically makes him inferior.  My dad was always getting beat up by the forever-youthful bullies of the Star City Chain Gang when he was my age.  Yesterday, I went out and fucked them up.  How about that?

 

 

to the person who suggested shane turn on vince legit, are you fucking nuts? shane is vince's son, and despite not wanting to compete with him, if he pulled a stunt like that he would stand to lose his inheritence, and while he may be an idiot in loving test, he isnt braindead.

 

 

I love Test.  

 

also, shane would still have to answer to vince probably, and it wouldnt provide real competition, rather token competition.  also, the idea would be kiled off if by any chance the other fed started taking the wwf's audience or rivalling it in popularity.

 

What?  How could Vince kill the thing off if it started taking his audience?  Why would Shane have to answer to his father?  Looks to me as if you've made quite the jumble of fantasy and reality!
