TheBostonStrangler 0 Report post Posted August 15, 2003 Yeah, Cena should be in the pride category. I'm on the fence about whether to include Albert as a shame-worthy guy, or just leaving him off altogether. He's not THAT bad, but he doesn't fit in the pride category either...

The Kid 0 Report post Posted August 15, 2003 AM The Kid: What's that pic in your avatar man? It looks like Bret and Lance. I never knew they appeared togetther. Was that the dying days of WCW? Yup, Bret and Storm..dying WCW days. WCW New Blood Rising, Lance Storm retained his Canadian Heavyweight Championship (formerly known as the U.S. Heavyweight Title) against Mike Awesome. This was back when Lance had 3 different WCW titles-ah the good ole days. This night, Storm had an amazing promo bashing the Americans: "After wrestling for rude and obnoxious crowds in the U.S., I finally get to wrestle for some REAL wrestling fans in the greatest country in the world. If you are wondering why there is a security entourage in the back, it is because I've become a marked and hated man in the U.S. Despite claims of being a patriotic nation, they spit on me for defending my own country. It's irrational American thinking like that which has me worried about a terrorist attack in the back. It is not my fault Americans think they rule the world. It is not my fault that I threaten that illusion. It is not my fault that I will defeat another American hero, Mike Awesome." Jacques Rougeau Jr. was the second and senior official for the match. There were special rules and shit that I dont remember but uh...I'll post a bit of the review: "However, Rougeau overruled the in-ring official once more saying that not only was a Bundy five count required for a victory but also the pinned wrestler had to fail to meet a standard ten count. For the third time, Rougeau demanded the contest carry on. Awesome belly-to-belly suplexed Storm from the top rope through a table in the middle of the ring knocking himself silly in the process. Rougeau joined the in-ring official in laying down a ten count. Whoever could get to their feet first would win the Canadian Title. As Awesome stood up, Rougeau punched him in the face knocking him back down. Storm got up and retained the title. Interrupting Storm and Rougeau's celebration was Bret "The Hit Man" Hart who walked to the ring with a serious look on his face and to a standing ovation from the fans. Hart stood face-to-face with Storm then he smiled and hugged the Canadian Heavyweight Champion and Rougeau effectively giving Storm his seal of approval. It should be noted that Storm was trained in the infamous Hart "dungeon" in Calgary ... Alberta, Canada. As they left the ring, Storm and Hart held the ropes open for each other in a show of mutual respect." Thats from SLAM! Wrestling Here's the whole pic...

Corey_Lazarus 0 Report post Posted August 16, 2003 MASSACHUSETTS PRIDE HHH (pre-quad) Saturn (trained here) Chris Nowinski SHAME: HHH (post-quad) Laz, isn't hhh from NH though, and thus not a Masshole? Or was he from here and then moved North? And I'd put both John Cena and Kevin Sullivan as people that I'm proud to be from our great state. I cpmpletely forgot about Cena and Albert, honestly. Cena is definitely a PRIDE, and Albert is borderline. He's not too offensive, but not particularly something to be proud of. And HHH was born in Nashua, NH, true, but he spent most of his life living in Boston. Trained at Killer Kowalski's with Chyna, teamed with Saturn in the indies (which makes me somewhat wonder why HHH didn't push for Saturn more, although I'm unsure of their feelings for each other) as a Road Warrior-like team, and moved back to Nashua sometime in '99. Besides, anybody in NH that lives in Nashua or south of Nashua is an honorary Masshole anyways. I'd consider Adam Sandler a Masshole, and he's from around Nashua. Hopefully, one day, we'll have "Corey Lazarus" on the "PRIDE" list. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
