LooseCannon25 Posted June 16, 2003 Report Posted June 16, 2003 I'm getting real sick and tired of WWE bringing in all of these past and big name stars to the company in hopes that ratings will go up and biz will pick up. Haven't they learned by so many failed attempts that it's just not gonna work. All the guys they've brought in: Steiner, Hogan, Nash, Piper, Goldberg, HBK, Austin and now Mick Foley. When are they gonna realize that it's time to push the current talent they have and create their own stars like they did with HHH, Rock, and Austin. What is it gonna take for them to realize this? They must push guys like Storm, Booker, RVD, Christian, Jericho, Lesnar, Benoit, Mysterio, Edge, Cena
Guest oldschoolwrestling Posted June 16, 2003 Report Posted June 16, 2003 Guess that makes it a good thing that NWA-TNA signed Sting.
Guest razazteca Posted June 16, 2003 Report Posted June 16, 2003 Out of the people you mention only Austin, HBK and Foley are the guys I care for. They still have a use for the show as they are the best at the interview and promo. They are not healthy enough to have a match every week but this is the WWE which focuses on how well of an actor you are so this is not a big issue. They must push guys like Storm, Booker, RVD, Christian, Jericho, Lesnar, Benoit, Mysterio, Edge, Cena At least these veterans are willing to put over the talent. And I think Lance Storm is a lost cause.
Murmuring Beast Posted June 16, 2003 Report Posted June 16, 2003 They must push guys like Storm, Booker, RVD, Christian, Jericho, Lesnar, Benoit, Mysterio, Edge, Cena Storm: Finished, over-rated, never was much good anyway Booker: Absolutely crushed beyond repair RVD: Was pushed, de-pushed, killed, re-born, dying a slow death Christian: Not that good to begin with Jericho: Still holds a high spot, but is just used as a company pivot Lesnar: WWE champion, can't be pushed any further Benoit: Was pushed, excellent wrestler, successful champion? Mysterio: Doing well on Smackdown, will never main-event, so don't build your hopes up. Edge: Injured, but will be crushed upon return Cena: Was pushed, proven that he's not ready yet. In other words, your point?
Guest razazteca Posted June 16, 2003 Report Posted June 16, 2003 They all need matches vs Foley to get them over or have Austin as their manager Storm: was good in a fed a long long long time ago Booker T: Why must he lose in his home town everytime? RVD: Dude relax Christian: Is the Peeps Chump, can become the next Jericho Jericho: 1% chance of beating HHH and that is a good thing
Guest Choken One Posted June 16, 2003 Report Posted June 16, 2003 They still got one ace in the hole... An 5 millon dollar ace in the hole... RANDY SAVAGE.
Guest jm29195 Posted June 16, 2003 Report Posted June 16, 2003 Although you say that they should push 'their own guys', of your list of people who should be pushed, Storm, Booker, RVD, Jericho, Benoit and Mysterio are not by any means home grown wwe guys, having spent the majority of their careers outside the wwe. Mysterio especially was only brought in around this time last year, before Steiner and Goldberg.....
Guest Retro Rob Posted June 16, 2003 Report Posted June 16, 2003 I think we might start seeing more of Storm once a face wins the IC Title. I figure he would be used in a small TV program, maybe while the WWE is building up to a SD! PPV.
Guest Choken One Posted June 16, 2003 Report Posted June 16, 2003 and ummm...Maybe i'm crazy or something... HASN'T mysterio been pushed a HUGE amount? I mean he got a major hype job coming in...Started a fued with Angle and was a pivotal part of smd for about 7 Months in tagging and he went to where he belongs in the CW...getting a huge shove for the CW title...and of course the DVD... Sure they did the A-Train thing but they needed to do it anyways...just the wrong guy was all...
Guest jm29195 Posted June 16, 2003 Report Posted June 16, 2003 Don't forget Lex Luger and Psycho Sid, they can form tag teams with Test and Zach Gowen respectively...
Guest razazteca Posted June 16, 2003 Report Posted June 16, 2003 They still got one ace in the hole... An 5 millon dollar ace in the hole... RANDY SAVAGE. You are forgetting the Franchise Shane Douglas.
Guest Choken One Posted June 16, 2003 Report Posted June 16, 2003 SHANE DOUGLAS? SHANE FUCKING DOUGLAS? WTF? WHAT GOOD WOULD THAT PIECE OF SHIT DO? Might as well bring back Chris Candido while your at it...
Guest jm29195 Posted June 16, 2003 Report Posted June 16, 2003 What about a stable with Mongo, Taylor and Rodzilla?
LooseCannon25 Posted June 16, 2003 Author Report Posted June 16, 2003 im not saying any of those guys HAVENT gotten pushes. I'm saying the shows should revolve around them
ChrisMWaters Posted June 16, 2003 Report Posted June 16, 2003 They still got one ace in the hole... An 5 millon dollar ace in the hole... RANDY SAVAGE. You are forgetting the Franchise Shane Douglas. Douglas would be the LEAST likely to come back to the WWE. Michaels, HHH, and Nash would all push against signing Douglas, since he had problems with them. Savage I could see, though I'd rather him replace Lawler on Raw.
Guest Choken One Posted June 16, 2003 Report Posted June 16, 2003 Fuck That...Put SAVAGE in the MAIN PROGRAM with Jericho and let that shit fly impromptu style!
Guest Choken One Posted June 16, 2003 Report Posted June 16, 2003 Uh Yeah... He cuts promos all the time and does apperences on That Damn Sports Show a lot and can still work a crowd...
Guest jm29195 Posted June 16, 2003 Report Posted June 16, 2003 Put Savage in a rap off against Cena, but seriously can Savage even work any more, last time i saw him was in a one off appearance in a battle royale before Spring Stampede 2000, and he lokked really crap..
ChrisMWaters Posted June 16, 2003 Report Posted June 16, 2003 Uh Yeah... He cuts promos all the time and does apperences on That Damn Sports Show a lot and can still work a crowd... Plus there was his work in the Spider-Man movie...
Guest Retro Rob Posted June 16, 2003 Report Posted June 16, 2003 I mark for Savage, but he would probably kill half the roster.
Guest jm29195 Posted June 16, 2003 Report Posted June 16, 2003 Put him in the RAW upper card and that's a good thing, bye bye HHH, Nash, Goldberg, Steiner, Kane...
Guest Choken One Posted June 16, 2003 Report Posted June 16, 2003 Just let Savage do dueling Promos with Jericho and Angle... and keep him FAR FAR FAR FAR AWAY from Hogan... or Hogan will have something more in common with Zach Gowen then their hatred for Vince McMahon.
Murmuring Beast Posted June 16, 2003 Report Posted June 16, 2003 Have him pin Mr.America SWERVE~ "You didn't actually pin Hogan clean, brother!"
Guest jm29195 Posted June 16, 2003 Report Posted June 16, 2003 I've got a feeling that Savage can't even move properly anymore, he looks nearly as roided as Steiner and he must be in his late 40's early 50's now?
ChrisMWaters Posted June 16, 2003 Report Posted June 16, 2003 I've got a feeling that Savage can't even move properly anymore, he looks nearly as roided as Steiner and he must be in his late 40's early 50's now? Savage is 51...1 year older than Hulk Hogan.
Guest Choken One Posted June 16, 2003 Report Posted June 16, 2003 He moved just fine on his TV Apperences hyping Spiderman...
