Guest Memoirs of an Invisible Chevy Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 Ok, these guys are gonna rule. Their vignette was the best part of the show. Sorry to say. So many possibilities. When is the token evil Russian wrestler/team gonna show up? That would be boss.
Guest Downhome Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 I didn't even catch this part of the show. Would someone recap that one for me, telling me who they are and what they said? Pictures or video would be great also, lol. I went to get something to drink right then I believe.
Guest Jobber of the Week Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 Same here. I was trying to get ice out of the icemaker. Saw a couple guys on the TV who looked kinda cute, but couldn't hear what they said at all thanks to the rumbling of the icemaker.
Guest Steviekick Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 I didn't even see what you guys are talking about.
Guest El Satanico Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 There's a new French gimmicked tag team? Hey look a new reason for me to not watch Raw. So are they French Canadians or pure breds?
Guest areacode212 Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 Apparently one of them is Sylvain Grenier.
Guest KingOfOldSchool Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 The promo was Sylvain Grenier and Rene Dupree in a kind of news format with a French decorative thing. Looks to be another anti-American team...
Guest RavishingRickRudo Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 So is it more The Quebecers or The Fabulous Rougeau brothers?
Guest Downhome Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 The promo was Sylvain Grenier and Rene Dupree in a kind of news format with a French decorative thing. Looks to be another anti-American thing... Who are they?
Guest El Satanico Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 So they're actually French Canadian eh
Guest areacode212 Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 The promo was Sylvain Grenier and Rene Dupree in a kind of news format with a French decorative thing. Looks to be another anti-American thing... Who are they? Sylvain is the evil ref who screwed Hogan at No Way Out.
Conspiracy_Victim Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 Grenier was the evil French ref, if memory serves. Dupree sounds familiar, but can't quite place how. God I hope they've got some talent, 'cause there's going to be a whole lotta sqashing going on with them and I'd like it to at least LOOK good.
Guest Fook_Hing_Ho Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 There's currently a very public France/US issue so Vince has a French tag team come in. I'm so shocked.
Rob E Dangerously Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 Fenchies? Atticus Fench is coming to the WWE to defend Rodney Mack against the lies put forth by Bob Ewell. Go Atticus go!
Guest razazteca Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 Well the French invaded the old Prime Time studio put French flags on video while they sat at the announcer position proclaiming their arrival. Rene Dupree is one of them.
Guest Downhome Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 Thanks, but what in the world did they say?
Guest Jobber of the Week Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 Wow. This is so going to get over. *explodes*
Bored Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 There's currently a very public France/US issue so Vince has a French tag team come in. I'm so shocked. Hey better than Tiger Ali Singh coming back which I'm sure has crossed Vince's mind a few times since 9/11 or Sgt. Slaughter turning on the U.S. Also they do obviously need to flesh out the tag division especially on the Raw side...of course I'm saying all this while still watching Raw on the west coast so I haven't seen the promo yet. At this moment really have no problem with this...besides screw the French.
Guest El Satanico Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 There's a VERY good chance that this will go somewhere extremely stupid. oi...It better not lead to ANYTHING involving Bradshaw.
Guest Jobber of the Week Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 No, it'll involve Hogan, who's inevitably coming to Raw anyway. It'll suck, but at least we'll get "Real American" back again.
Bored Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 There's a VERY good chance that this will go somewhere extremely stupid. oi...It better not lead to ANYTHING involving Bradshaw. OMG That's right APA will be back soon. Fuck I change my mind I hate this idea.
Guest RavishingRickRudo Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 Meanwhile, TALENTED wrestlers who could entertain the crowd in the ring remain off the roster.
Rob E Dangerously Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 will the French Connection help out the new Iraqi heel secretly and them subvert American attempts to stop him? I do want the French to beat down people thru 2 on 1 and cheating. And if the guy is too strong, they can run (and insist that they are not cowards, just smart)
Guest Memoirs of an Invisible Chevy Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 Yea they are from France...not Canada....or so the gimmick goes. Where is Nikolai Volkoff....he ruled. Honestly.
Guest ShooterJay Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 I heard Dupree was a freakishly talented really young kid (like 18/19) that they signed last year. Never heard of Grenier.
Guest El Satanico Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 Meanwhile, TALENTED wrestlers who could entertain the crowd in the ring remain off the roster. Well we don't know if these two are good or not, so it's a bit early to jump that gun.
Guest Askewniverse Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 Dupree was featured on an episode of Confidential. They did a small piece on what his life is like as an up-and-coming wrestler in OVW.
Guest El Satanico Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 Did they show any wrestling clips of him?
Rob E Dangerously Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 The French Connection (Sylvain Granier and Rene Depree) should be the ultimate chickenshit two-faced heel team. They even look down on fellow heels like Canadian Lance Storm or Brit William Regal (although they never muster the courage to attack them) They will attack people, but they will still remain men with a streak of cowardice that they try to hide. The French Connection.
Guest RavishingRickRudo Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 I bet people said that about 3MW. These guys are no different. *maintains original statement*
