Guest RavishingRickRudo Report post Posted February 22, 2003 Correction. Angle did. And he (Brock) almost fought off four men. Ah, so ben. and haas taunting Brock when he is in the ankle lock doesn't really do anything...Mmm hmm. There ARE marks who don't want to see a match because they know what will happen, right? They might say "Angle never got an offensive move in, I know who's winning, I'm not spending 59.45 or whatever they're charging this month to see that. Remember, last month's Mania main event hurt partly because of how poorly the feud was done. There is a difference between trying to keep that apart and not having huge encounters (What I THINK you are saying) and having the challenger just totally write off the champion. 1)He did get an offensive move it - the ankle lock. 2)When the feud becomes just Paul and Brock arguing against who gets Pauls dog and Paul tells Kurt to get him some hand lotion, then you can compare it to HHH vs. Jericho, ok? It's called anticipation - the less they touch, the better it is. I don't understand how Brock manhandling Angle is better than having them fight early and letting Kurt get offense. If they fought early and Kurt looked decent, people might be more interested int he feud. As is, Kurt looks like shit, anyone he beats looks like shit, and Mania is not even a question. At this point in time AS, it seems like you just don't want to understand. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Anglesault Report post Posted February 22, 2003 At this point in time AS, it seems like you just don't want to understand. I'd say that's farely accurate. I don't want to understand why this feud is tanking, I want it FIXED. I'n NOT patient. I want results, and now. Ah, so ben. and haas taunting Brock when he is in the ankle lock doesn't really do anything...Mmm hmm. Nope. Not a thing. It's called anticipation - the less they touch, the better it is. Which explains nothing. Brock has been "touching" him all month. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest RavishingRickRudo Report post Posted February 23, 2003 1)It's not tanking. If it was tanking then there would be no fan response. 2)Sure it did, the last image people are left with is Haas and Benjamin mocking Brock while Angle has him in the ankle lock. 3)But it was never on a level playing field. Never in the context of a match, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest the pinjockey Report post Posted February 24, 2003 They still have a few weeks before WM to make Angle look decent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Brian Report post Posted February 24, 2003 Well, that was their last chance with me. And they blew it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Space_Cowboy Report post Posted February 24, 2003 Don't worry, i'm sure they'll let Angle finally look strong the final show before WM, just like they did with Jericho last year. And that worked out well, didn't it? Just give Lesnar the belt now, it'll save them a month of Lesnar dominating Team Angle over and over and let them move onto whatever other stupid booking they have written down on a napkin somewhere.
