Guest O.J. Hart Report post Posted January 20, 2003 Well, i was watching the ppv with my friends last night, and they showed a nathan jones vignette. Holy shit, the guy seems intimidating, but the accent is freakin hilarious. The rest of the show, we kept goin "crikey! I'm Nathan Jones the austrailian booger from Barbara Faye Austrailia by crakey!" and we did it in a loud, slurred austrailian accent. Holy shit, ever since the guy seems like he has a whole wing ready for him at the wrestle crap hall of fame. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted January 20, 2003 Just because he's Australian and has an accent, you refuse to give it a chance to get off of the ground? Well, Undertaker sounds like one of the biggest rednecks in history, RVD always sounds stoned, Austin had a thick southern accent also, Regal has a British one, and most of the Canadian wrestlers have a hint of the Canadian accent, even though none of them are full-on parody sounding. Do you still call these others Wrestlecrap? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest mach7 Report post Posted January 20, 2003 Dude relax. He's just saying that he sounds like the Croc Hunter. And he does. Not because he's an Aussie, but because he sounds like he's reading off a cue card. I mean, if he put some intimidation into his voice, maybe it wouldn't be so lame. But Sean O'Haire? Now those are some cool promos. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted January 20, 2003 It's hard to hear any voice inflection when there's music playing and they're only letting him speak in sentence fragments. I'm just giving it the benefit of the doubt, although it will turn out badly most likely, considering that he's just another damn hoss and probably can't talk worth a damn on a live microphone. Still, his vignettes are awesome. But Sean O'Haire's minimalist vignettes are sooooooooo much better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Jobber of the Week Report post Posted January 20, 2003 My only concern is how they plan to get the character across properly. If this was Brian Gewertz, he'd be trying to pay for shit with cigarettes in backstage segments. Hopefully Paul can do the ex-con thing better than that.
