Guest Mattdotcom Report post Posted July 10, 2003 Question's in the title and subtitle. RAW still has the Hi-Lite Reel, but with Piper's firing, SmackDown is without a segment for Vince to use every other week. But this segment has chairs! God, WWE is so innovative. The other question raised is, if SmackDown does replace Piper's Pit, what do they replace it with? Sean O'Haire can't carry one of these and it wouldn't make that much sense. There are rumors that Brother Love got the spot on a house show or was going to get the spot on a house show. I don't know why, but I'd like to see Eddie get his own fake talk show and just go off on guests, doing stuff like insulting them en Espanol. Any other ideas?

Guest TheZsaszHorsemen Report post Posted July 10, 2003 Give it to Brock. Call it "The Brock Show." Before it begins, play the following jingle with Brock's head spinning around in the center of the screen up against a sixties acid rock background: "It's The Brock Show, Starring Me; I'm Brock! It's The Brock Show, Would you like to *CENSORED?*" The sgement will be 15 minutes of Happy Dance and then Kurt reveals that when he was six he killed his beloved sea monkeys, and Brock F5's him for no reason.

Guest Dangerous A Report post Posted July 10, 2003 Because it's sports entertainment, silly. Oh, cause there isn't enough talk from all the non competitive personalities like Austin, Bischoff, Steph, Sable, the backstage interview segments, the opening show interview segment, the end of show interview segment (sometimes), women in *fill in blank* contests, and Vince himself that you couldn't just cut out more talking segments. I swear that WWE will move closer and closer to Russo's dream of having a wrestling tv show, with no ring. :: huddles in corner and cries at the thought of Russo's dream :: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Frankie Williams Report post Posted July 10, 2003 Reo Rogers never got a fair shot in 1993. Maybe its time to dust off the old cowboy hat and bring him back. That or bring back Blackjacks BBQ. Good times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lil' Bitch 0 Report post Posted July 10, 2003 Wouldn't mind seeing Brother Love again, but then again, they're not doing shit with Funaki, he should get the spot, after all, he is Smackdown's number one announcer, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Aero Report post Posted July 10, 2003 I never even cared about Piper's Pit this time around. It seemed like when it was announced that it was returning, everyone got all excited. The first show was nothing spectacular, with Vince as the guest. In fact, it seemed like every other week Vince was the guest. If WWE insists on having an interview show on SD, then give it to Matt Hardy. It'll give him more oppurtunity to showcase his charisma. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Invictus 0 Report post Posted July 10, 2003 "What's your Angle?" Starring Kurt Angle. He could bring people out, question why they don't have gold medals like he does, ask people to recommend good medal polish, and create top ten lists why certain people don't have gold medals. It writes itself! Tonight on "What's your Angle?": Chris Benoit! Kurt Angle: "Welcome to the show Chris, let's start right off the bat with the question everyone wants to know; Gold medals in Olympic events. Why do you have none?" Chris Benoit: "Well I, wait--What?" KA: "Ah, so they disqualified you for lacking the specific english requirements. Well, if you had been like ME, Chris, you would have studied your 3 R's like crazy and won a gold medal. I even threw an extra "R" on there, for "Really good at winning Gold Medals." " *someone speaks to Kurt off screen* "Oh, I have some unfortunate news Chris.... it seems your mother just passed away." CB: "What!? Oh no--I-I just talked to her this morning! Why!?" KA:"Bwahaha! I'm sorry, I'm sorry, but if you'd been wearing GOLD MEDALS, like myself, you would have seen right through that lie. Isn't he an idiot, ladies and gentlemen?" *canned laughter* "Next question, why do you think Kurt Angle is great?..." Etc. Hell, if Vince is gonna put him in comedy angles, at least make him them interesting Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The ChriZa Report post Posted July 10, 2003 I just had a terrible thought... Who has, despite NO charisma or appeal, been given a microphone and turned loose on our TV screens, "interviewing" wrestlers left and right, much to the turning of our stomachs? That's right. The Former Mrs. Dust herself, Terri. I can see it now...The Revolting 50-Year Old Sad Excuse For A Sex Symbol Show... Maybe her first guest will be Jamie Lee Curtis Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest RavishingRickRudo Report post Posted July 10, 2003 Hows about this. Gene FUCKING Oakerland in the ring talking to a wrestler and asking his thoughts on another wrestler or his career or whatever. Hey, that sounds like a plan! NO!!!! That's STOOPID, we gotta have ALBERT and Alberts hair salon, he can be renamed Alberto and teach the finer points of hair care along with interviewing the hottest stars and asking them about how they are able to manage their hair in the rough environment of the WWE. His first guest could be Steph! YEAH! GREAT IDEA! Who cares about Oakerland! That guy couldn't sell shoes to a hippy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisMWaters 0 Report post Posted July 10, 2003 I believe there should be less interview segments....more wrestling. That's why I'm kinda a fan of NWA-TNA now. If WWE would adopt this theory, I think that they would do better. But of course, Vince McHitler is in charge... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Loss4Words Report post Posted July 10, 2003 Every wrestler wrestles. But not every wrestler has his own segment. Therefore, someone like Matt Hardy could benefit greatly from having his own talk show. If it's a tool to create new stars, I'm all for it. But if they're going to give it someone who doesn't need the rub, I'd rather just see the cruiserweight title matches go 5-10 minutes longer and try to create a star the old-fashioned way.

Guest Goodear Report post Posted July 10, 2003 I don't have a problem with an interview segment as it should be used to allow one worker to use his charisma to get another one's angles over. The problem is that these segments are just used to hear from guys that talk all the time already. Vince coming out for an interview is pretty wacky since we hear from him all the time. Use the interview to give Rhyno or Chris Benoit a chance to talk with someone who can get the right answers out of them and you get a more well-rounded character. Of course, the real way to use the time is BLUE SCREEN PROMOS! I want to see A-Train in front of a LOGO yelling! YES! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
