Mr. America: A picture from Smackdown...

[Guest Downhome]

I got this from 1wrestling if you are wondering, someone sent it in to them.

 

Well, I see that half of what I wanted to happen is going to happen, that being him STILL doing the hand to the ear thing and also just basicly looking the same just with a mask, I LOVE this. Here you go...

 

 

...I can't wait to see this on the show, I reall can't!

 

By the way, please, do NOT post spoilers about whatever happened durring this segment, what Mr. America said, or anything like that. I think we all basicly knew it would be Hogan, so this isn't really giving away too much. Just, for the sake of me and others who don't want to know exactly what happened, just don't post exact spoilers, thanks!

 

Sincerely,

...Downhome...

[Guest RavishingRickRudo]

This reminds me too much of the Blue Blazer storyline/gimmick from 1999.

[Guest Sakura]

And we all know how that turned out.

[LaParkaYourCar 0]

He even looks like The Blue Blazer.

[Guest What?]

You never know...it COULD be Sting, only tanned and with a fake blonde wig and goatee

[Guest Downhome]

This reminds me too much of the Blue Blazer storyline/gimmick from 1999.

Damn you Rudo and your infernal words!

 

For some reason, I hadn't thought of that once and now, it'll be the only thing I think of when I see the mask. On another note...

 

...damn, can you even believe it's been that long in the first place?

[Guest Lightning Flik]

Considering how often the WWE has been rehashing storylines, I'm amazed this one took so long to be rehashed, Downhome.

[Guest Downhome]

My question, is just how did they sign this Mr. America? Did he just show up one day with his mask and everything on and no one bothered to realize it's just Hulk Hogan?

 

That wacky Hogan and his hairbrained schemes!

 

I don't usually try to apply logic to everything, but for this, it just cracks me up thinking about it.

[Guest Lightning Flik]

Know what, I'm thinking this will be pure comic relief, really.

 

Just based on what you said.

 

This just makes me think so.

[Bored 0]

Hmm sort of a Blue Blazer rehash and possibly later Sting coming to the WWE....let's hope Vince resists the urge to have them propel from the ceiling. I also get a vision of Fake Mr. America's vs. Fake Sting's dancing in my head...okay now my head hurts.

 

Oh and my official statement on the whole Mr. America thing is if it were a midcard angle I'd have zero problem with it but its going to be focus of Smackdown for sure and I don't have the confidence in the WWE creative team to make it funny and entertaining.

[Guest RavishingRickRudo]

The only way this storyline could be beneficial (which is not to say 'good') is if Hogan took on Sean Ohaire at Judgement day, lost big time, and then decided he needed someone else to get the job done. I don't know who that person is, but it would give them a big rub if it happened. So on the next Smackdown PPV you could have Piper/Ohaire vs. Hogan/Partner, or Hogan vs Piper, Ohaire vs. Partner

[Guest RavishingRickRudo]

If they give the Mr America angle more than one segment per show, it's over doing-it. But what are the odds of THAT happening? The Al Wilson storyline ended up taking like 4 segments per show.

[Guest Sakura]

But the Al Wilson stuff had HLA! EVERYONE loves HLA!

 

This reminds me of one of the worst parts of their survey. One of the questions was like "do you like storylines that make you think" and then "do you like entertaining storylines that dont make you think?".

 

Meaning to them entertaining = mindless crap like Al Wilson.

[Guest Downhome]

I wish the results of those polls were made public for us to see the % of the people who picked what.

[Guest Mole]

I wonder why kind of music he comes out too.

[Guest RavishingRickRudo]

Shit, I may have to actually watch Smackdown to hear Real American...

 

NOOOO!

[Guest Lightning Flik]

Shit, I may have to actually watch Smackdown to hear Real American...

Damn, we might actually get to hear Real American on the WWE since like forever?

[Guest Redhawk]

My question, is just how did they sign this Mr. America? Did he just show up one day with his mask and everything on and no one bothered to realize it's just Hulk Hogan?

 

In Smackdown GM Stephanie McMahon's office, the boss sits at her desk flipping through a Playboy with Chyna on the front...

 

Suddenly, a very big, very tanned man wearing a red, white and blue sweatsuit and a mask fashioned after the American flag bursts through the door

 

Stephanie (surprised, drops her magazine): Who the hell are you? What are you doing here?

 

Mystery Man: I'm Captain America, dude!---I mean, ma'am.

 

Steph (looking suspicous): Captain America? I've never heard of you. So let me guess; you're a wrestler and you want a job here, right?

 

Captain America: You're damn straight, br---um, Stephanie. I want to be a Smackdown Superstar.

 

Steph: Well, do you have any tapes or anything? I mean, you've got good size, but I can't just sign someone I've never seen wrestle before. The last time that happened, well, I'm sure you know what I'm talking about, mate.

 

Capt. America: Well let me tell you something, Mean Gene....I mean, Stephanie...sorry. Anyway, I can wrestle for sure. I used to be the champ in, this, um, company in the Northeast. The WW....G.

 

Steph: WWG? Where's that?

 

Capt.: It's in, um, New York. But I was the champ, man, then I was champ in WC...um, G. I've beat 'em all. The Sheik, Andre, Luger, Warrior, Macho Man, Orndorff, Giant, Beefcake. I picked up all 70 pounds of Andre the Giant, dude, and all my Hulkamania....um, my um, Americaniacs were right there...yeah, 100 thousand strong in Detroit.

 

Steph: Did you just say Hulkamaniacs? Anyway, look, most of those people you mentioned are either dead or damn near dead. Just how old are you? How long ago was all this?

 

Capt: I'm not that old, Steph. But, you're right, those were in the 80s. But I watch the show and I know nostalgia is in right now. In fact, I even beat Piper, the dude on your own show. I beat him at Wrestleman...um, I mean, Wrestle...Bowl I.

 

Steph: What was Wrestle Bowl? Look, I can tell you've got something. You have charisma, Capt. America. How would you like to have a tryout, and if all goes well we'll sign you?

 

Capt: About that...see, my knees and my hip aren't so good, dude---ma'am. The tryout thing might not work out that well. I mean, I can work and kick ass in the ring...just not now, brother.

 

Steph: Brother? Anyway, well, I go by my instincts. That's why I'm head writer and that's why WWE is doing so great. So I'll sign you. And you can make your debut in three weeks during Smackdown.

 

Capt: Awesome, brother! Just let me sign here......good deal, Steph. You won't regret this. And I can finally get back at Vince McMahon for leaving me laying in a pool of my own blood at Wrestlemania.

 

Steph: What'd you just say?

 

Capt: Um...nothing! I gotta go. Bye! Capt. America shuffles out of the office.

[Bored 0]

Shit, I may have to actually watch Smackdown to hear Real American...

Damn, we might actually get to hear Real American on the WWE since like forever?

Yup its been a whole...ten months.

 

Jeez just go download it off Kazaa or better yet go watch Wrestlemania III, V, or VI.

You could also add

 

Stephanie:Well Mr.America, welcome to Smackdown. Thankfully your not the leathery old dinosaur Hogan, he smelled like my medicine cabinet.

 

Mr.America:Wait a minute bro...Stephanie, I don't...umm I mean Hogan doesn't smell like a medicine cabinet.

Sorry, I forgot to add the [/sarcasm] to what I was saying.

[Guest NoCalMike]

The worst part of this whole thing is.....

Spoiler (Highlight to Read):

Stephanie McMahon claiming to have signed Mr. America "sight unseen" which is the biggest INSULTING of the fans intelligence ever. I mean even for a mark to believe that, that is a believable business method is pure crap

[Guest RavishingRickRudo]

<-- is a huge Real American mark. Bite me.

[Guest Lightning Flik]

^^^Above spoiler (that NoCalMike posted) happens IRL.

Spoiler (Highlight to Read):

At least on the part where the person hasn't even been seen and gets hired/job offer. It does happen, but for a professional class act like WWE, that is quite a stupid reason as you said.

[Guest El Satanico]

Mr. America/Rikishi/Haku vs. Piper/O'haire/Big Show or Albert = ratings

[Guest Lightning Flik]

Mr. America/Rikishi/Haku vs. Piper/O'haire/Big Show or Albert = ratings

ACK~! GET THAT FAR AWAY FROM MY TV~!

Actually, I'd believe that, even if I was a mark. Nathan Jones seems to make perfect sense now after that.

[Guest Addy]

Ya know, before I scrolled down and read the replies, judging by the picture, I believed that The Patriot had come back.

[Guest MarvinisaLunatic]

Spoiler (Highlight to Read):

Stephanie obviously knew it was Hogan, since she tried to keep Vince away from the Arena when she arrived. It would be so cool if there was some backlash towards her from Vince for signing him to that special contract, but thats probably not going to happen. Remember, she's signed him to TWO contracts now..Vince should be very angry at his quarter-billion dollar princess..

[Rob E Dangerously 0]

I can't say conclusively if Mr. America is Hulk Hogan.

 

Could always be Horace Hogan or some newcomer like Tenacious Z.
