hulimation of Lance Storm

[Guest Ghettoman]

Alright I gotta really get my two cents in....

 

People are taking this as if it's the WWE making Lance Storm character "a boring guy", thats not the case.

 

Lance Storm to any casual fan who's watching for the first time is boring, and really try and think outside of your own head because all those fans saw of Lance was that night they watched.

 

And we all know many other die-hard WWE marks and even those with reason find Lance boring too.

 

What it does is take Lance Storm from boring to something else. We didn't get an entire angle last night, we got the start of one. It's character developement, character developement that's gonna effect what he does in the ring, character developement thats gonna effect who he is from here on.

 

Have hope people, if the WWE takes this the right way than it's very much a good thing, but this is just a storyline in it's infant stage, and the only thing we know is it's gonna effect how he wrestles on TV in some way, which is good thing because it's pushing character through matches, which means less use for backstage shinannigans and more possibilities for booking.

 

And that, is a good thing.

[Guest The Czech Republic]

They once marketed Furnas and LaFon as being boring. Bright move there.

 

And THAT is #2000 for The Czech Republic.

[Guest BobbyWhioux]

They're having Jackie play the role the way Miss Linda did for Exotic Adrian Street, in which he was obviously very effemenite but she played his sidekick in a very sexual way. The difference was Street was ultra-effeminite (in a rather non-P.C. way that they could never use today) until the match started and then it was a blatant 180-degree change into an animal. Rico was less gay, and then less tough. Just kind of there.

Hmm.

 

[Puts on his "Typical Cynic Smark" Hat]

 

Pretty much exactly what I expected would happen. Not enough balls to go all out. You know, just like with the Un-Americans. Just like with pretty much everything else.

 

WWE is still trying to steal second without taking a lead off of first here.

 

I agree that this could be the beginning of a very good angle/gimmick for Storm (much like when Pillman lost that match and was forced to wear a dress for a while), but I also agree that giving the fans the green light to chant "Boring" is playing with fire, and I believe it will soon blow up in the WWE's face (and yeah, a lot of me says "serves 'em right") and I also believe that they won't follow up on this in a way that will benefit the overall product or Storm individually.

 

And yeah, it did irk me. But not as much as the "Trish barks like a dog" segment in Feb. 2001 (another offensive and stupid segment from the WWF/E that could have been somewhat redeemed if the victim had gotten adequate "revenge" but of course Trish didn't; she played lackey for months until Wrestlemania, when she slapped Vince across the face. Once. WOW, sure showed him.)

 

But even she got to do more to Vince than Lance will ever get to do to Austin.

[Guest buffybeast]

Well, at least Lance Storm is still getting a WWE paycheck. The economy is real shitty right now for everyone, including professional wrestlers.

[Guest Choken One]

Yep...I'm sure lance...Whom has said on MANY occasions he wants to retire young and send his kids to college...

 

would rather bang across the world making chump change with no promises...

 

You people really believe that Lance storm is offended by this? He has on record called HIMSELF the most boring person alive...along with Edge, Jericho, X, and just about anyone whom has internet access...

 

Lance Boriness is a part of his own fucking identiy...

 

Lance makes fun of it himself...

 

So whose getting hurt here?

 

Not Lance...but the fragile emotions of the Smarks once again.

[Guest JMA]

I agree with you there, it makes no sense for her to be his valet and be all over him if he is supposed to be gay???

Couldn't she just be a hag (a term for women who hang out with gay guys)? Maybe it's not a sexual thing. I mean, Goldust still played homosexual mind games even when he had Marlena with him. And look at Adrian Street and Miss Linda. On a lesser scale, Randy Savage and Miss Elizabeth might also count. Putting a valet with a guy of questionable sexuality is a long tradition. I really like this new gimmick.

 

Jackie should probably drop the "Gayda" from her name and just be "Miss" Jackie.

[Guest Breetai]

About the only way this could EVER work out well for storm's character is if he becomes an Incredible Hulk ripoff: he starts matches off wrestling in a slow deliberate style, using shit like arm-wringers, armbars, and other psychologically sound pure wrestling moves, and once the boring chants reach their peak he just SNAPS. I'm talking about ANNIHILATING his opponent here; I wanna see shit like turnbuckle powerbombs, piledrivers on the outside and beating the FUCK out of the poor bastard with a chair. Afterwards have him do the whole "oh shit, what have I done?" routine. He would have to absolutely brutalize his opponent though, and given the wishy-washy nature of WWE booking I can't see that happening.

Silly customer. You cannot use logic like that. Only WWE-logic works.

[Guest AndrewTS]

Lance Storm?!?

 

[Guest Breetai]

Lance Storm?!?

 

OKay, maybe I was being a BIT naive.

[Guest RavishingRickRudo]

People are taking this as if it's the WWE making Lance Storm character "a boring guy", thats not the case.

 

Really? Cause Austin calling Storm "a boring guy" seems to be exactly the case.

 

Lance Storm to any casual fan who's watching for the first time is boring, and really try and think outside of your own head because all those fans saw of Lance was that night they watched.

 

Ok, Storm is boring. Rikishi is fat. Steph is stupid. Jamal is a horrible wrestler. Does that mean that Austin should come out and say "faaaat-aaas", "Duuuumb-aaasss", "This Suuuuuucks-aaasss". But even worse, "boring" will effect everyone. There's acknowledging someones faults, there's basing gimmicks around someones faults, there is turning weak points into strong points, there is hiding the the faults... and then there is clearly addressing it in a humiliating way. Guess which one is this??

 

And we all know many other die-hard WWE marks and even those with reason find Lance boring too.

 

I don't see how he is "Boring" - he is a wrestler. He doesn't have an over-the-top character. Ok, fine. My attention doesn't need to be held by flashing lights and bright colours and pyro. Now every other wrestler who doesn't act like the rock will get a "boring" chant.

 

What it does is take Lance Storm from boring to something else. We didn't get an entire angle last night, we got the start of one. It's character developement, character developement that's gonna effect what he does in the ring, character developement thats gonna effect who he is from here on.

 

If you say so chief. WWE's character development as of late has been bang-on. Jobbing out Benoit, making Christian more of a pussy, Angle...staying goofy...

 

Have hope people, if the WWE takes this the right way than it's very much a good thing, but this is just a storyline in it's infant stage, and the only thing we know is it's gonna effect how he wrestles on TV in some way, which is good thing because it's pushing character through matches, which means less use for backstage shinannigans and more possibilities for booking.

 

Yes. You are absolutely right. Have faith in the company, when have they EVER fucked up before? Right? Cause, there is NO REASON IN THE WORLD to not have hope in this company.

 

And that, is a good thing.

 

Exactly. Encouraging your fans to chant "boring" IS a good thing...

[Guest nl5xsk1]

Jackie should probably drop the "Gayda" from her name and just be "Miss" Jackie.

I think he did call her Miss Jackie, during that first skit when all you saw was his back - it's like they think taking the weak parts of the Adrian Street gimmick will work.

 

What worked was a Southern Hick mentality hating the "queer" Adrian Street ... the P.C. culture has made people less vocal about their feelings about "alternative" lifestyles.

 

Plus, Rico isn't using the extremes the Exotic One used ... he's got to be FLAMING outside the ring and an annihilator inside.

[Guest Celtic Jobber]

The average mark finds the smart fan's "Lord and Saviour" Chris Benoit boring too.

 

How would those of you complaining about Lance being boring, feel if Hulk Hogan came out on Smackdown and encouraged the fans to chant "Boring" during his matches?

[Guest RavishingRickRudo]

The Avg. mark gave Benoit a standing ovation.

 

Hogan has matches?

[Guest Choken One]

I still think they gave ANGLE/Benoit a Standing O...just benoit was in the ring and Angle wasn't...

[Guest RavishingRickRudo]

And that "benoit" chant?

[Guest Choken One]

Dunno...No Audio from I was...So I just saw people standing and Clapping

[Guest JMA]

He did call her "Miss Jackie." I distinctly remember that. The announcers were still calling her "Jackie Gayda" though. I don't think Rico has to necessarily be homosexual to get heat. He could just be an effeminate heterosexual who dresses in an exotic way.

[Guest JMA]

The average mark finds the smart fan's "Lord and Saviour" Chris Benoit boring too.

No they don't. Back when he was feuding with DDP EVERY mark I talked to thought Benoit had his number. They respond well to his intensity and they KNOW he's a good worker the same way they knew Bret Hart was a good worker. It's just instinct.

[Guest Ghettoman]

Jesus fucking christ with fans like you Rudo why should they even try!?

 

This was the START of something, say it over and over, the START of something. This wasn't Lance Storm being developed into a boring guy, this is Lance being developed from a boring guy to something else.

 

No he doesn't go out there and call people fat asses and bad wrestlers, because thats not what its about. It's an angle for Storm that plays off numerous legit things and takes his character from boring, to something else.

 

I mean shit if the WWE is gonna get slammed for trying something new why even try? I mean this could end up being one of the best things they've done in a while, and yet here we are after it barely got off the ground having bashing it as if the entire thing played out in that five minutes.

 

But then again you don't seem to be thinking outside of your own head, and unless the entire 4.1 last night was Rudo clones your not making a strong point.

 

It's character developement, it's character developement through in-ring action. Anyone who considers themselves a "smark" and is against character developement in the ring is just a complete ass.

The only reason that I think that Rico needs to be a homosexual is because they've blatantly admitted that they were ripping off the Adrian Street character. And Street portrayed it with every gay stereotype imaginable.

 

If you're going to steal a gimmick, at least do it right. Don't dumb it down to make it more P.C.

[Guest RavishingRickRudo]

Jesus fucking christ with fans like you Rudo why should they even try!?

 

And with fans like you, why should they even try something good!?

 

This was the START of something, say it over and over, the START of something. This wasn't Lance Storm being developed into a boring guy, this is Lance being developed from a boring guy to something else.

 

And this START sucks. There are MANY OTHER WAYS to establish that the guy is "boring" than to get the fans to chant BORING. Are we getting this? Do you understand that getting the fans to chant "boring" is NOT GOOD? For _anyone_.

 

No he doesn't go out there and call people fat asses and bad wrestlers, because thats not what its about. It's an angle for Storm that plays off numerous legit things and takes his character from boring, to something else.

 

No, it's an angle where Storm - a wrestler who the fans don't care about - get's a "boring" chant in his match, and will continue to get boring chants in his match until they completely job him out and fire him. Think of it as Steve Blackman 2003, without Al Snow.

 

I mean shit if the WWE is gonna get slammed for trying something new why even try? I mean this could end up being one of the best things they've done in a while, and yet here we are after it barely got off the ground having bashing it as if the entire thing played out in that five minutes.

 

Yes, because the WWE has a FANTASTIC track record with these things right? WHAT THE FUCK leads you to believe that this thing will be good? Do you even watch the WWE? It started off with a BORING CHANT! This isn't something "new", it's something suicidal.

 

But then again you don't seem to be thinking outside of your own head, and unless the entire 4.1 last night was Rudo clones your not making a strong point.

 

The WWE rating fluctuates but generally is going down. This is the end of the school year, just like in May which was the end of the college year, there is an influx of people watching. The number in May dropped right afterwards. Plus it was a post PPV Raw. But that's me not thinking outside my own head, and you thinking perfectly fine... yep...

 

It's character developement, it's character developement through in-ring action. Anyone who considers themselves a "smark" and is against character developement in the ring is just a complete ass.

 

And anyone who is for public humiliation and sees if as a good thing is either a sadist or complete fucking moron.

[Guest Ghettoman]

ITS NOT PUBLIC HUMILIATION!!!1 If it was Storm would of said I quit and walked out.

 

You sit there and talk as if you got the jist of the business and your not differentiating past things with on air angles. What you saw was Lance Storm being called boring, and thats all you saw, hell thats all you needed to see to say it was a bad angle. What you missed was them playing on something that was already there:

 

THE MISUSE OF STORM.

 

It's ON AIR that its Storms fault for being boring, anyone with a clue realizes this is the WWE accepting the fact they've done absolutely nothing to personalizing him, playing off that to the fans, and going somewhere.

 

No the WWE doesn't have the greatest track record, but why should that stop me from having hope? If we always expect the WWE to drop the ball, they will. If were open enough to actually wait for an angle to go somewhere and then bash it, maybe the WWE would feel better about following through, because we all know problem number one in the WWE is lack of follow through.

 

Your making this out to be them calling Lance boring and thats it. Thats not it, when you start an angle about someone's character, that means your gonna change it, advance it, make it something other than it is now.

 

The only reason anyone gets into Lance Storm is because they've seen him before and liked him, there is no fan base large enough for the WWE to put Lance out there as a nobody and expect him to get over on his wrestling abilities alone. You need to make him someone, what is Lance Storm? A wrestler? Than what the hell are the other 60 guys out there?

 

This is the WWE accepting there mistake, playing off it and trying to fix it. You act is if the WWE is expecting to get Lance over on boring chants, it's called playing off what he is to make him something else.

 

But hey, you never know, you could of course....I don't know, WAIT UNTIL THE ANGLE GOES SOMEWHERE, before casting it off as a career killer.

[Guest RavishingRickRudo]

ITS NOT PUBLIC HUMILIATION!!!1 If it was Storm would of said I quit and walked out.

 

LOL, you say that as if WWE Wrestlers have a spine... You think wrestlers WANT to take the stinkface? You think Divas want to have McMahon to stick his tongue down their throat? Do you think Regal and JR wanted to kiss Vince's Ass?

 

You sit there and talk as if you got the jist of the business and your not differentiating past things with on air angles. What you saw was Lance Storm being called boring, and thats all you saw, hell thats all you needed to see to say it was a bad angle.

 

The WWE got their fans to chant "boring". Please tell me how that is NOT a bad angle?

 

What you missed was them playing on something that was already there:

 

THE MISUSE OF STORM.

 

It's ON AIR that its Storms fault for being boring, anyone with a clue realizes this is the WWE accepting the fact they've done absolutely nothing to personalizing him, playing off that to the fans, and going somewhere.

 

No, it's not the WWE "accepting the fact they've done absolutely nothing to personalizing him" - it's the WWE wanting to mock straight-laced pro wrestlers. Power Rangers Underwear, ANYONE?

 

No the WWE doesn't have the greatest track record, but why should that stop me from having hope? If we always expect the WWE to drop the ball, they will. If were open enough to actually wait for an angle to go somewhere and then bash it, maybe the WWE would feel better about following through, because we all know problem number one in the WWE is lack of follow through.

 

Ah, so it's OUR fault for the WWE fucking up every angle that comes within their grasp? Listen, 'we' have given the WWE chance after chance after chance after chance after chance, and they fuck it up each and every time. You don't have "hope", you're just BLIND.

 

Your making this out to be them calling Lance boring and thats it. Thats not it, when you start an angle about someone's character, that means your gonna change it, advance it, make it something other than it is now.

 

Yeah, cause... um... theres.... um... that... uh... basis for reasoning? You need to help me out there, WWE and "character development" haven't exactly gone side-by-side...

 

The only reason anyone gets into Lance Storm is because they've seen him before and liked him, there is no fan base large enough for the WWE to put Lance out there as a nobody and expect him to get over on his wrestling abilities alone. You need to make him someone, what is Lance Storm? A wrestler? Than what the hell are the other 60 guys out there?

 

You _do_ know that there are OTHER ways to establish someones character? And that how they did it monday is the worst fucking possible way...

 

This is the WWE accepting there mistake, playing off it and trying to fix it. You act is if the WWE is expecting to get Lance over on boring chants, it's called playing off what he is to make him something else.

 

It's hilarious, cause you think it's true. Here's what they are going to do: Storm is going to "try" to be entertaining, but of course, will fail - the fans will laugh at him and chant boring - the WWE will give up, because they always do with wrestlers that aren't Big Show, or Test, or Billy Gunn - and Storm will be back on Heat, worse off than before.

 

But hey, you never know, you could of course....I don't know, WAIT UNTIL THE ANGLE GOES SOMEWHERE, before casting it off as a career killer.

 

Again... Time and Time again I have been right on these things. The WWE sets something up, it sucks, they try again, it sucks, and we, the fans, have to suffer through it. Can't I get SOMETHING from this experience? Haven't I earned the right, and they lost the right, to call it as it is?

[Murmuring Beast 0]

The bottom line is, Storm was given his chance in a tag team with William Regal and the matches were so mind-numbingly generic it failed.

 

Whose fault is this?

 

Regal's?

Storm's?

The writer's?

WWE STYLE~?

[Guest HollywoodSpikeJenkins]

Not sure if anyone posted this yet...

 

 

 

As you saw on RAW last night, an angle took place during Lance's Storm's match with the debuting Garrison Cade, where "Stone Cold" Steve Austin kept yelling "boring" throughout the duration of the match.

 

While many were upset that Lance Storm, who many consider to be one of the top workers on the RAW roster, had his biggest weakness blatantly exposed on live television. Apparently, that wasn't what the company had intended to happen.

 

Because Storm lacks a lot of charisma and many consider him to be a very dry, boring character, WWE officials decided to use this as a way for fans to react to Storm's matches. Now, everytime he has a match, the fans won't just sit and keep silent, but will rather chant "boring" during the match.

 

I don't think this is the kind of reaction Lance was hoping for, but I guess it's better than no reaction at all...

At least they are trying with Storm. It will end up sticking with him his whole career though, much like YOU SUCK for Angle.

[Guest Sakura]

You would think after the Jericho/HBK debacle people would stop the "just wait, it's only the beginning" stuff.

[Guest Ghettoman]

LOL, you say that as if WWE Wrestlers have a spine... You think wrestlers WANT to take the stinkface? You think Divas want to have McMahon to stick his tongue down their throat? Do you think Regal and JR wanted to kiss Vince's Ass?

 

No, they want to make a living entertaining people, which is exactly what those thing acheived. Maybe not you, but obviously your not easy to entertain, I mean come on, you talk about straight-laced wrestlers and being let down constantly, and yet you still watch?

 

The WWE got their fans to chant "boring". Please tell me how that is NOT a bad angle?

 

Your acting as if the word boring can never be a part of wrestling because the only way its been used is as a chant to show displeasure. To every fan watching Lance in a typical WWE singles match, he is boring, boring as hell, now there playing off of it, to go somewhere else. I guess you just have this idea that the WWE is going to use that just so the fans will chant boring at Lance whenever he wrestles in an attempt to get him over, where's the basic reasoning there!?

 

No, it's not the WWE "accepting the fact they've done absolutely nothing to personalizing him" - it's the WWE wanting to mock straight-laced pro wrestlers. Power Rangers Underwear, ANYONE?

 

Yeah, can you say bias? If you feel so strongly about the WWE in such a negative way to the point where you'll say something like this, why are you watching, or even keeping track? Do you realize the Lance Storm we've been seeing is the one the WWE has given us? Did Austin talk about Storm being boring in WCW? ECW? I don't think so....

 

Ah, so it's OUR fault for the WWE fucking up every angle that comes within their grasp? Listen, 'we' have given the WWE chance after chance after chance after chance after chance, and they fuck it up each and every time. You don't have "hope", you're just BLIND.

 

Yes the WWE has never ever done anything right,....say it again now, 'b-i-a-s'....

 

The WWE's had bright spot after bright spot, like I said, there number one problem is follow through, which makes those bright spots either forgotten or erased. Why not accept this as another possible bright spot considering it was only the beginning? Because a boring chant was involved? Basic reasoning there?!

 

Yeah, cause... um... theres.... um... that... uh... basis for reasoning? You need to help me out there, WWE and "character development" haven't exactly gone side-by-side...

 

B-I-A-S, once more, B-I-A-S. Los Guerreros, Team Angle, Kurt Angle, Triple H, Rock, Austin, Randy Orton, hold on let me stop before I name 90% of the roster. The WWE is always developing characters, not well is another issue, to say there incapable of doing so when they show the ability to constantly is a little ridiculous. They try, and at times succeed for a while, it's follow through there lacking.

 

You _do_ know that there are OTHER ways to establish someones character? And that how they did it monday is the worst fucking possible way...

 

How is it the worst possible way when you don't even know what it is yet!?!? Listen to yourself for (religious icon here)'s sake. We don't even know where there going yet, we just know how there starting, and thats by pointing out the obvious, Lance is boring(and thats there fault).

 

It's hilarious, cause you think it's true. Here's what they are going to do: Storm is going to "try" to be entertaining, but of course, will fail - the fans will laugh at him and chant boring - the WWE will give up, because they always do with wrestlers that aren't Big Show, or Test, or Billy Gunn - and Storm will be back on Heat, worse off than before.

 

Is 'basic reasoning' one of those terms you can spell and say but don't understand? Show me the reason the WWE would start something with Lance's character only to use him less? Come on this should be good....

 

If you want mine, the reason there doing this is to give Storm a more active role on Raw now that the brands have split and there's more room, I think logic would tell us that if the WWE didn't want Storm to go somewhere they wouldn't waste the effort on trying to do so.

 

Again... Time and Time again I have been right on these things. The WWE sets something up, it sucks, they try again, it sucks, and we, the fans, have to suffer through it. Can't I get SOMETHING from this experience? Haven't I earned the right, and they lost the right, to call it as it is?

 

No, because if your only watching to bash why waste your time? Time and time again, why wait around for another time? If it's so stupid to do so why are you? I think your looking for that half full glass as much as I am it's just easier to take it the other way these days. I mean why else watch if you don't somewhere in the back of your head expect a turn around? Why would you constantly put yourself through the "torture" as you so imply of watching?

 

I like what there doing, and what there doing is something with Lance Storm, something thats gonna take him from what he is now and make him something more exciting, more entertaining to watch. If they weren't at least going to try they would of never started the angle in the first place.
