Guest NoSelfWorth Report post Posted February 10, 2003 Nothing like tasteless comedy to bring back the fans who left you. Apart from being tasteless, which is nothing new for Vince, it's stupid, and dooms Dustin to opening card comedy act. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest kkktookmybabyaway Report post Posted February 10, 2003 How's this for controversial? Goldie starts sleeping with the Smackdown GM and throws what was once a billion-dollar company down the toilet. Oh, that's been done. Nevermind... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Trivia247 Report post Posted February 10, 2003 Guess Vince needs to Make up for losing that Big Money Necrophilla Angle! lol Hell though Goldust, Dustin, he's done worse before... Stuttering and Cursing spontaniously might not be pushing the envelope much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Jobber of the Week Report post Posted February 10, 2003 They should have him shoot electricity and shock his opponents into submission. Sorta like POWDER... This is exactly what I was thinking when I read the headline. Actually, sort of what I was thining. I was thinking more of the Emperor from Star Wars than I was Powder. Ah well.

Guest Insane Bump Machine Report post Posted February 10, 2003 Oh My God, that is so fucking stupid. There they have a guy who reinvented his carreer and became one of the only guys on RAW who really is over and loved by the fans. He stepped up his game in the ring, too. That's all great, so what do they do? They kill his PERFECTLY FINE AND WORKING character dead and give him this CRAP!!???? What has he done to deserve this? And who has fucked the brains out of Vince and his "creative"?? They are struggling right now to get ANYBODY over, because the fans DON'T CARE about most of the guys on the show. Finally there is somebody who developes a real bond to the audience and gets over and they KILL HIM! IDIOTS!!! And now, instead of "great tag team champions" BookDust, we'll get "I'm pushed so that I can bend over for HHH" Booker T and "My gimmick is so bad that even Charles Wright doesn't watch my matches anymore" Goldust. Fuck them! Fuck them up their stupid asses! Vince McMahon can suck my dick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest TheArchiteck Report post Posted February 10, 2003 Is this serious? (Same thing I said during this past summer/fall) It just sounds stupid.....who is actually thinking about this?

JasonX 0 Report post Posted February 10, 2003 Dave Meltzer just confirmed Goldust new gimmick "The current plan is that Dustin Runnels, after being electrocuted last week, will return as a character with deep emotional problems and tourette's syndrome" By "Emotional Problems and tourette's syndrome" it would make more sense for it to be "Goldust breaks character ever couple of second and gets into even more trouble with HHH and the Evolution by way of blabbing out how HHH is sleepin with Steph to stay champion or how HHH is a pathetic cripple who desperately wants to be Ric Flair but can't carry the Nature Boy's Jock Strap".....

Yuna_Firerose 0 Report post Posted February 10, 2003 I'll rather see Golddust lose his memory and thinks he's a superhero who shocks people. Then he can stalk Hurricane, who can use Booker's tag angle: 'stop following me!' If used correctly, I'm sure the tourrete can fit in there somewhere and make sense. *wakes up* Oh yeah, this is WWE we're talking about. Never mind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Trivia247 Report post Posted February 10, 2003 Or... He Loses his Memory and thinks he is Daddy Dusty Rhodes...and Comes out in the 1990 Pokadot number trying to Bionic Elbow everyone...then he Gets in a Feud with Bubba for the Copywrights to the Bionic Elbow...then the Feud ends when The Real Dusty appears and throws Goldust back against the Power box to jog his Memory back and Proclaims he is the Only Bionic Booty Daddy in America!>.....then Dusty feuds with Scott for the rights to Booty daddy....

Guest Lil Naitch Report post Posted February 10, 2003 You know, BookerDust was the last real reason for me to watch Raw besides Orton, and he's turning into a lackey. And now this. Did they HAVE to break them up just to give Goldust Touretts? Goldust has been rocking the ring lately, in my opinion he's become this generations Sting (well, he does paint his face...) and to do this to a guy who's worked his ASS off is just plain stupid.

Guest RavishingRickRudo Report post Posted February 10, 2003 They need to have Dustin regain his memory for a second so that everyone thinks the storyline is over and then go back to being Dusty again. I wonder if this is Vince trying to be satirical again at his own company and making literal 'shock television'... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest CanadianChris Report post Posted February 10, 2003 From http://members.tripod.com/~tourette13/: Tourette Syndrome (TS) is a neurological disorder characterized by tics -- involuntary, rapid, sudden movements or vocalizations that occur repeatedly in the same way. Diagnostic criteria include: Both multiple motor and one or more vocal tics present at some time, although not necessarily simultaneously; The occurrence of tics many times a day (usually in bouts) nearly every day or intermittently throughout the span of more than one year; Periodic changes in the number, frequency, type and location of the tics, and in the waxing and waning of their severity. Symptoms can sometimes disappear for weeks or months at a time; Onset before the age of 18. I am amazed...nay, SHOCKED...that no one from WWE did any research before they came up with this BRILLIANT idea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Smell the ratings!!! Report post Posted February 10, 2003 There's that too. I think they meant *like* Tourett's, like he's being shocked. 10 bucks says JR repeatedly says it's touretts, then they have skits for the express purpose of explaining that it's not Touretts, he just got electrocuted.

Guest BobBacklundRules Report post Posted February 10, 2003 I seriously think the WWE is going to do this, with Goldie being depressed about being the weak link and being electrocuted he'd come back pissed off at Booker and spouting obscenities and twitching because of the "electricution". What I can't figure out is how can they make a “freaky stuttering, twitching, tourette drivin Goldust look like an actual contender. If they do go with this angle I can't see Goldust wrestling anymore, or at least not getting a title run. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest deadbeater Report post Posted February 10, 2003 What would be funny (and would make me totally mark out) is when Goldust wind up dancing like the guy in Talking Heads' 'Once in a Lifetime'.

Guest IDrinkRatsMilk Report post Posted February 11, 2003 You know, if it was played right, a character with Tourette's could get over huge. Tourette's Syndrome can be a very endearing disability. However, Goldust is not the right man for that job. I could probably fantasy book a halfway decent Tourette's angle, but I know WWE has no chance in hell of doing it right.

Guest Space_Cowboy Report post Posted February 11, 2003 Apparently the WWE thinks "Extremely controversial" and "Mind-numbingly stupid" are the same thing. Even if it does work out, why the hell would someone think of a Tourette's Syndrome gimmick in the first place, there has to be practically millions of better ideas for a wrestler than that.

Guest TheCynicalHateMongerFromHell Report post Posted February 11, 2003 Goldust has always been more of a 'character wrestler" than a star. Kinda like how you'd never see John C. Reilly star in a movie. I am curious to see how this angle turns out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
