Guest Lord of The Curry Report post Posted January 29, 2003 Kendrick is the Wrestler Formerly Known as Spanky. He's been competing on Velocity for a while as many names, like Dynomite, The River Rat and another one which escapes me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Sandman9000 Report post Posted January 29, 2003 Brian Danielson is AmDrag's real name, not Kendrick, unless the Weeeeeee signs him and renamed him without anyone knowing about it. Besides, I can't see AmDrag dancing and singing ever, not just in a ring. Spanky, that makes sense. Bout time they dumped that whole mask gimmick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Choken One Report post Posted January 29, 2003 Well, Open up the floodgates for the American Dragon Complaining! This looks Eh to me. I think you're getting your indy workers mixed up. Then Who is Brian Kendrick then? Never Mind...I got Am.Drag and Spanky missed up. I got confused with all the hype...Kinda like Music with Strokes and Vines...no difference in the hype and Look.

Guest Banky Report post Posted January 29, 2003 Yes, that is indeed Spanky. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest RedJed Report post Posted January 29, 2003 Two major (obvious) issues here..... 1. They need to make up their mind on Albert because its going to damage alot of pushes in the process if they dont. This is ridiculous. First it hurt Edge by even being in the same ring as this guy, and now they have jobbed out Rey twice to him? WTF is the deal here?! All I can think is one last night profile job to Rey at No Way Out (ugh, I don't even want to see that though) and then he'll be back to midcard level at best. 2. Kendrick, much less anyone, won't go anywhere in a ridiculous role like that. I've never heard of such a stupid gimmick....already scared what he will do in the weeks to come. I thought the alternating masked man gimmick on Velocity was great and if they could have kept that going to the point where it would make it on Smackdown and lead to him unmasked down the road..........ahh fuck it.

Guest Vern Gagne Report post Posted January 29, 2003 Except for the tag match, and Rock's return it doesn't sound very promising. Albert's got something on Vince. There's no other explanation why he continues to be shoved down our throats. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest BoboBrazil Report post Posted January 29, 2003 Noone has mentioned the Rock yet, so I will. It looks like they are trying to keep him a face until NWO where Vince can do one of his famous Montreal screwjobs and help Rock beat Hogan and turning Rock heel.

Guest Mulatto Heat Report post Posted January 29, 2003 I wonder why they even signed Little Guido/Nunzio after he did little of note on Smackdown and is jobbing on Velocity 2 months in. "Eh" show is right. I could see people liking RAW more this week. The usual suspects can't work miracles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Mole Report post Posted January 29, 2003 So, is Rock a face or a heel? Rey jobs to A-Train? I thought his push was done with? Well, we know that rumor was totally wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted January 29, 2003 Keeping Rock as a face, even if it is only until No Way Out, is a huge mistake, especially against the uber-hot face Hogan. I'm curious as to how Rock was actually saying things like he was glad he wasn't in Green Bay and things about Hogan's bald head. There IS a difference between heel Rock voice and face Rock voice.

Zetterberg is God 0 Report post Posted January 29, 2003 Rock needs to be heel. (Although he'll probably end up a face again, if this heel run is anything like the first one.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kurt Angle Mark 0 Report post Posted January 29, 2003 Two things I do like, is that it appears that at some point we are going to see: Los Guerreros vs. Team Angle for the Tag Team Titles. and Matt Hardy vs. Billy Kidman for the cruiserweight title Two matches that I have been waiting for.

Guest Vern Gagne Report post Posted January 29, 2003 The only sign of a heel turn is the Rock saying he's glad he isn't in Green Bay. The only way a Montreal finish would work is if Brett Hart prevents the timekeeper from ringing the bell. Either have him be in Hogan's corner, or have him make a surpise run in.

Either have him be in Hogan's corner, or have him make a surpise run in. If that happened, I don't think words can describe the insane heat that would be generated.

Guest Justwitty Report post Posted January 29, 2003 I think Kendrick sounds hilarious in this role. In an interview once, he described his character (Spanky) as "What I am like when I am drunk." Sounds like he's going to be a goofy shit who can do some great stuff in the ring. Having him associated with Heyman also gives me hope for his future. I find the A-Train thing to be the stupidest thing I have seen them do since...ok, just this week. I thought his big push was over! The way Rock sounded to me based on that description is that he was being a heel. Not wanting to be in Green Bay coupled with talking about how he "loves" the fans and he loves them...sounds like this could be a subtler version of him turning.

Guest NaturalBornThriller4:20 Report post Posted January 29, 2003 Sweet Jesus, Thank The Lord! Charlie Haas & Shelton Benjamin are the #1 Contenders, meaning them Vs Los Guerreros. Sorry, but i'll skip the Show this week. I'm not in the mood to see Bill DeMott (Um...Tough Enough is over, meaning he should be back on Velocity) Vs Rikishi #10000000000. Why is Rey Rey still jobbing to A-Train Wreck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest tank_abbott Report post Posted January 29, 2003 I was there live...no matches of note... Nathan Jones wrestled Kanyon in a dark match that started hot, but Jones inabilities put the crowd to sleep And Hogan made no appearence which ticked off a fair amount of people Rock gave a interview from Hollywood...and the crowd cheered him (He was booed when shown on the WWE History Video earlier in the night) Any one want to know anything else....Please ASK me!!
