Only two and a half hours away~! WEEEEEE~! LET THE SUCKITUDE BEGIN EARLY~!

 

Hey~! I know~! Let's guess who's curtain jerking today~?

 

My guess is Mack and Nowinski vs the Dudleys. Dudleys lose of course.

Rico down in OVW was the best worker and best interview by far. He outclassed Lesnar in every way. He was looked at as the star that Cornette made and therefore when he came up Heyman hated him. He saddled him with that crap gimmick to get at Cornette, making his top star seem like a fool. Once rico left I stopped going to OVW shows as he was the only reason to go. Meltzer even reported that Heyman came up with the gimmick to get back at Cornette on WOL. Yet another reason to hate Paul.

So it was Heyman's fault?

 

Hmmm...

 

I find it ironic that Heyman of all people would "hold down" Rico with a gay gimmick. After all, those rumors... ;)

 

It's also heavily Heyman's fault that the only good Natural Born Thriller, Mike Sanders, never was called up to WWE. It's speculated he was just going to get Rico's gimmick anyway, though.

I wouldve paid to see "above average" mike sanders, who thinks hes hot shit, reduced to doing a gay hair stylist gimmick. Im suprised nash's influence didnt get him in.

cmon, Andrew, did u really think he was that great? i agree he was better than any of the other thrillers, but thats not saying much. He had good mic skills, but was on and off. his in ring skills werent anything to write home about either.

He'd only started getting a shot at anything other than Saturday Night jobber matches, and was already outshining the other Thrillers by leaps and bounds.

 

The same Thrillers who still absolutely suck, may I add, yet still get TV time and pushes.

Frankly, it wouldnt bother me if NONE of the thrillers were on TV, although, i agree, if i had to pick 1, itd be sanders.

Are you sure it was Heyman? Everything else I've read said it was JR that hated Rico.

I thought JR called Rico up without consulting the writing team, and thus pissed the writing team off.

I'm hoping to see Hurricane wrestle Randy Orton. Might actually be a good feud there.

Fued? Maybe. Matches would blow though. I'm not interested in the wannabe-heavyweight Hurricane against Green OVW Kid #4 Randy "OW!! I'm hurt again!" Orton.

 

Foley coming back to promote that shithole main event makes me weep.

 

I guess I can have Raw on in the background in case something cool happens.

Actually it's spelled FEUD. Go look it up. Anyway, if he can stay healthy maybe it will work...

And if Orton suddenly stops sucking in the next six days.

Damn, it sounds like everyone had it in for the poor guy.

Really? I would have thought that he'd be more for the Batista or Nathan Jones type.

I find it somewhat hilarious that bookers like Heyman and JR would intentionally destroy peoples' careers, in their own company, just to embarass another booker. It's not surprising, but it's hilarious.

 

I'm watching Raw for Foley, Jericho. The Mack, and Nash's potential injury. Notice how they don't even try to promote wrestling on the free tv shows.

Actually, I think Turbo and Gemini got pissed about Rico's showmanship in Powerball and decided payback would be a bitch, so they made a call to the WWE writing staff upon Rico's arrival...

Well I got off work early so I can post and watch this live. Yay, I guess. If Foley shows up, great. If not, it'll be par for the course as RAWs go.

 

Actually I'm kinda hoping it ISN'T Foley, because if it is HHH can get pissed at a slow count or refusal to count, beat up Foley, then still go over Nash by putting on a striped shirt and counting his own pinfall at Bad Blood.

I STILL don't get why a "network for men" is called Spike TV and has such a femmy logo.
