Guest EI Cubano Posted April 2, 2002 Report Posted April 2, 2002 He has had a few lines that have been hilarious like the "the ever dangerous shopping cart" line and just seems really cynical on the product tonight, it's pretty funny.
Guest Kahran Ramsus Posted April 2, 2002 Report Posted April 2, 2002 Yeah. The announcing has been horrible tonight. Maybe JR would rather be on Smackdown.
Guest treble charged Posted April 2, 2002 Report Posted April 2, 2002 Well, with the Paddle match coming up, you know Lawler's announcing isn't getting any better.
Guest Posted April 2, 2002 Report Posted April 2, 2002 The best line of the night had to have been when J.R. came up with a solution to get Vince out of the ring: 'Pepper spray his ass' I just about died.
Guest Some Guy Posted April 2, 2002 Report Posted April 2, 2002 I think it's JR's way of telling us (the fans in general) he knows Hardcore is cliche and repetitive and so is Vince and so is everything other than RVD, Booker, and Eddy (who he put over strong) on Raw.
Guest BA_Baracus Posted April 2, 2002 Report Posted April 2, 2002 Horrible? I thought JR was really on tonight. He had a ton of funny lines. Better than him screaming "government mule" and "scalded dog" over and over again all show...
Guest Human Fly Posted April 2, 2002 Report Posted April 2, 2002 I thought speaking as a whole was on tonight. The Vince-Flair-Austin segment was really good to me. JR is still the best in the WWF. I like it bette rwhen he gets a little sarcastic, then the King can oversell things and it cracks me up.
Guest Posted April 2, 2002 Report Posted April 2, 2002 I think it's JR's way of telling us (the fans in general) he knows Hardcore is cliche and repetitive and so is Vince and so is everything other than RVD, Booker, and Eddy (who he put over strong) on Raw. Maybe he hates wrestling.
Guest ratboy Posted April 2, 2002 Report Posted April 2, 2002 Yeah, even his tone of voice was a little darker for most of the show. A cynical JR could be a good thing, I think, enabling Lawler to become less one-dimensional/puppies-oriented. We'll see.
Guest Mystery Eskimo Posted April 2, 2002 Report Posted April 2, 2002 God knows JR needs a change of direction. I'd love him to be more cynical and mocking.
Guest Posted April 2, 2002 Report Posted April 2, 2002 Maybe he was on the rag. I'll check the Ross Report to see.
Guest nWoScorpion Posted April 2, 2002 Report Posted April 2, 2002 CLASSIC JR LINE: SURVIVOR SERIES 1999 during Snow/Mankind vs. NAO JR: Mankind gave Al snow head last thursday on smackdown. JL: WHAT?!?!?! JR how dare you.....
Guest JAMES900 Posted April 2, 2002 Report Posted April 2, 2002 LOL oh man that classic, it be great if JR just broke kayfabe and pointed out all the blown spots and junk.
Guest oldschoolwrestling Posted April 2, 2002 Report Posted April 2, 2002 Did anyone understand his reason for calling Undertaker Booger Red?
Guest Mole Posted April 2, 2002 Report Posted April 2, 2002 The best line JR said was when Buh Buh got out the oranges during the hardcore match. "Oh no, not the citrus." Or something like that, I laughed my ass off.
Guest notJames Posted April 2, 2002 Report Posted April 2, 2002 Did anyone understand his reason for calling Undertaker Booger Red? Not me. Even Lawler was perplexed at JR's explanation. Lawler: His hair's not red. JR: It used to be. His emphasis on the word "wrestling" gave me high hopes... that came crashing down like Icarus once the Paddle on the Pole match was announced. Why must you tease us so?!?
Guest buffybeast Posted April 2, 2002 Report Posted April 2, 2002 Did anyone notice that JR called Brock a "white rhino"? There was a thread here recently about what animal will JR call Lesnar. WTF does a white rhino look like, anyway?
Guest notJames Posted April 2, 2002 Report Posted April 2, 2002 Didn't notice... I'll watch the tape again tonight. But a white rhino would like just like a regular one... just, um, white. Maybe he'll start calling him the Albino Rhino Of course, if/when rhYno comes back, this could complicate things for JR, a la mistaking the two Canadian Chrises.
Guest dreamer420 Posted April 2, 2002 Report Posted April 2, 2002 I liked JR last night. He was announcing like a pissed off old man and it was a nice change for him.
