Adam 0 Report post Posted June 3, 2003 This is the one thing that can make this match entertaining. Nash and Triple H will suck ass, but with Foley as the ref the match will be a little better. Thoughts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What a colorful imagination you have. Even Foley as ref won't make the match (which will hit GASP~! -****) better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EL DANDY~! 0 Report post Posted June 3, 2003 Foley needs to just chair both guys and declare himself the winner. That'll up the value of the belt 100 notches. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest edotherocket Report post Posted June 3, 2003 Although for workrate fanatics it won't improve the quality of the match itself per se, I personally find I can get in to a match a lot more if the crowd is into it. So if Foley is out there waving Mr Socko around or reading excerpts from his new book or WHATEVER and it makes the crowd come alive then I'm all for it.

EL DANDY~! 0 Report post Posted June 3, 2003 There are ways, Bob. I see the fact that he...oh...ENFORCES THE RULES. You remember Bill Alphonso in ECW? In a match between Raven and Dreamer, he once disqualified Raven for...USING A CLOSED FIST!!! It's stuff like that that can make a match great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bob_barron Report post Posted June 3, 2003 Foley's been special ref before and didn't add anything to the match. See: HHH v. Angle. He's not gonna take a big bump- I think the novelty will wear off 2 minutes after the match starts when the first chinlock kicks in Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest two_tuff_toddy Report post Posted June 3, 2003 The only way for this match to be good is as soon as both people are in the ring they run at each other and simultaneously tear their quads causing a double contout. THAT WOULD RULE! No matter how bad this match is, and it will be horrible, it won't come close to the shitfest that was Undertaker vs Bossman. My single most hated match of all time.

Guest edotherocket Report post Posted June 3, 2003 Foley works for me since he definitely would only come back for a one off and he isn't about to turn heel and I'm worried that the reason for this special referee is to do a screw job ending dragging this god forsaken feud out even longer.

Guest two_tuff_toddy Report post Posted June 3, 2003 Of course they are going to draw this fued out until Summerslam. They wouldn't want to do anything the fans would like. Of course if it does end cleanly,hahahahahahhaha, HHH will just go on to job to Goldberg at SS which wouldn't be any better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Mole Report post Posted June 3, 2003 They haven't actually announced Foley as ref yet. How can a ref help a match become great? It is pretty obvious they are talking about him. He can't make it any better. NOTHING can make a Kevin Nash good, other than HBK in his prime. This match might be the worst of the year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest two_tuff_toddy Report post Posted June 3, 2003 WWF = Good WWE= WCW 97-2000 If VInce and HHH stay in the exact positions in the company that they are now WWE will be gone in 3 years. Or bought out by someone who isn't named McMahon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bob_barron Report post Posted June 3, 2003 Would that make you happy or anticipate the match more, Bob? It wouldn't really do anything for me personally. Seeing Terry Funk again would be cool but in the end it's still Triple H v. Nash and it's still gonna suck. Triple H's bladejob is probably going to be the highlight of the match Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Adam 0 Report post Posted June 3, 2003 Foley can add at least comedy to the match, which will be so bad it won't even be laughable. Nonetheless, it will be awesome to have Foley on my TV again, even if its only for a couple of weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Muzz Report post Posted June 3, 2003 As long as he isn't taken out like at Wrestlemania, and the WWE somehow make his involvement mean something, then I'm all for it. ... But that is too much to ask the WWE. My second choice for a referee would be Liam Lynch, who would basically sum up what most people feel about the match.

Guest jester Report post Posted June 3, 2003 When was the last time a surprise partner or ref turned out to be anyone interesting? I think they're going to disappoint here. And how sad is it that they need a special ref to spice up HELL IN A CELL? This going to be like that Taker/HHH match from last year that was nearly everyone's WMOTY. Punch punch punch kick blade job punch punch lie on the mat for five minutes... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
