Guest EI Cubano Report post 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Kahran Ramsus Report post Posted April 2, 2002 Yeah. The announcing has been horrible tonight. Maybe JR would rather be on Smackdown. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest treble charged Report post Posted April 2, 2002 Well, with the Paddle match coming up, you know Lawler's announcing isn't getting any better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Some Guy Report post 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 Report post 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... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Human Fly Report post 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Shaved Bear Report post Posted April 2, 2002 pepper spray his ass lmao Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ratboy Report post 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Mystery Eskimo Report post Posted April 2, 2002 God knows JR needs a change of direction. I'd love him to be more cynical and mocking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted April 2, 2002 Maybe he was on the rag. I'll check the Ross Report to see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest nWoScorpion Report post 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..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest JAMES900 Report post 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest buffybeast Report post Posted April 2, 2002 JR worked better with Heyman, IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest oldschoolwrestling Report post Posted April 2, 2002 Did anyone understand his reason for calling Undertaker Booger Red? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Mole Report post 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest notJames Report post 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 Report post 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? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest notJames Report post 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 Report post 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
