Guest JMA Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 (edited) Is anyone else disillusioned with the feud between La Resistance and the Dudley Boyz? It just seems to me the Dudleys should have a better motivation to take the Canadian Frenchies down. Starting a feud because of someone's nationality is just... lame. It just makes the Dudleys the same as the team they're fighting with. It seems it would be better to base the feud on La Resistance's arrogancy, the tag titles they wear, and their anti-USA statements. But instead, you have Buh Buh saying the same thing about France. So, it's basically anti-France vs. anti-USA. It seems to me that the babyface shouldn't be against a democratic country. It would be more like a face to take the high-road and not hate anyone. In other words, this feud could be done better. Edited July 31, 2003 by JMA
Guest Eagan469 Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 Well, they are the team that sports the Confederate Flag. Dudleys are supposed to be southern hicks who like to rassle. They don't need a complex issue to fight over.

They don't need a complex issue to fight over. I think they lost the southern hick part of their personality. Especially since Buh Buh sounds incredibly northern.
Guest AndrewTS Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 That aspect of the Dudz' character hasn't really been an issue in years. Although it sort of makes sense for them to be the tag team version of Jim Duggan when you think of it on that level.
Guest Retro Rob Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 Yeah, that rubbed me the wrong way as well. I have already written up that match for The Booking Report, so I'm gonna retype that. Just wait a few days for a detailed analysis of it.
Guest JRE Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 Something crossed my mind...Andre the Giant was French...right?
ChrisMWaters Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 Something crossed my mind...Andre the Giant was French...right? Yes, he was.
Guest AndrewTS Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 Something crossed my mind...Andre the Giant was French...right? Yeah, the Alps more specifically, not from Paris or any large French cities.
Guest RavishingRickRudo Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 Wait, are you implying that Vince didn't think La Rez through?? That's just... *scoffs*... Silly~!
Guest The Czech Republic Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 I thought the Dudleys were being announced from New York lately.
Guest JMA Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 I believe Chris Benoit is French Canadian. Triple H has some French in him as well.
Guest The Old Me Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 I don't know, but I haven't felt that southern hick schtick from them in years.
Lil' Bitch Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 I thought Buh Buh didn't like La Res because of their snootiness and that they were about to clock that jobber with the flag.
Guest AndrewTS Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 I remember at either Raw X or some other time they were at WWF New York that Buh Buh said that they were close to home or something like that, so yeah. WWE Dudleys are different from ECW Dudleys.
Guest JRE Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 That too, but...it seems everyone was annoyed when Bubba snickered "...I hate the French"
Guest The Czech Republic Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 I believe Chris Benoit is French Canadian. Triple H has some French in him as well. I think Chris moved from Montreal to Edmonton. No idea on Hunter. Yeah Bubba is from Jersey I think? No wonder he's a prick.
Guest AndrewTS Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 La Res should catapult cows at their opponents and taunt them with really wise-ass scathing remarks. Yeah Bubba is from Jersey I think? No wonder he's a prick. ChrisMWaters isn't a prick.
Guest Askewniverse Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 La Res should catapult cows at their opponents and taunt them with really wise-ass scathing remarks. La Resistance after taunting their opponents:"Go away..or I shall taunt you a second time!"
Guest Jobber of the Week Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 I figured Bubba's days as an inbred hick were behind him with the "This ain't The HHH Show" promo, which was his best mic work in ages.
ChrisMWaters Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 Yeah Bubba is from Jersey I think? No wonder he's a prick. *Smacks you with a cement covered 2x4* Damn you for insulting me in a way!
Guest JMA Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 Actually, I think La Resistance should be more like the ECW Dudleys. As in challenging fans to fights in the parking lot, spewing tasteless insults, and getting in the faces of fans. I had an idea for an angle involving La Resistance beating down Austin and then forcing him to eat French food. They would bring up his enjoyment of alchohol and force him to drink French wine. They would then pour it all over him. Next, they would force him to eat cheese and smear it over his face. After this, they force a croissant down his throat. Finally, they'd drape the French flag over him like a sheet over a corpse. That's how I'd book a heel French tag-team.
Guest pappajacks Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 I believe Chris Benoit is French Canadian. Triple H has some French in him as well. Benoit was born in Lasalle, Quebec (a Montreal suburb) and moved at an early age to Edmonton, Alberta.
Lil' Bitch Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 *predicts that World Heavyweight Champion, HHH, will dump Evolution and join the World Tag Team Champions, La Resistance, to form the New Quebecers.
Guest The Old Me Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 *marks out for New Jersey pricks such as himself*

Lil' Bitch Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 I had an idea for an angle involving La Resistance beating down Austin JR: OH BAH GAWD!!! The World Tag Team Champions have just hit Austin with a damn croissant! Damn you, La Resistance! Damn you straight to Hell!
Guest Trivia247 Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 heh they long since abandon the Dudley family personna or Bubba would still act like he is 8
iggymcfly Posted July 31, 2003 Report Posted July 31, 2003 This whole angle is definitely the most boring thing on Raw. It's the equivalent of the Vince/Steph/Gowen storyline on Smackdown in that it makes me embarrassed to be a wrestling fan, and makes me want to change the channel immediately. The sooner they get La Resistance away from the tag titles and then off TV for good, the better.

How about this: They're French-Canadian and are carrying on the legacy of great French-Canadian wrestling. (Even though they're shitting all over the work of Patterson, Martel, and the Rougeaus.)
