Boner Kawanger Posted August 24, 2003 Report Posted August 24, 2003 The Fabulous Moolah was originally scheduled to wrestle a match on the Smackdown taping for her 80th birthday. Several years ago, Vince McMahon promised Moolah that he would book her for a match after she turned 80. The match is now tentatively scheduled for September 15th at Raw, which is in her home town of Columbia, SC. credit: Wrestling Observer Newsletter Someone say something.
edotherocket Posted August 24, 2003 Report Posted August 24, 2003 That'll be a better main event than what we've had in the past few weeks of Smackdown.
Boner Kawanger Posted August 24, 2003 Author Report Posted August 24, 2003 Notice how this is one of the few promises Vince keeps.
edotherocket Posted August 24, 2003 Report Posted August 24, 2003 She can have a ** match with Angle and we can all argue about whether he carried her or not.
RavishingRickRudo Posted August 24, 2003 Report Posted August 24, 2003 At least it's on smackdown where we all can avoid it... ...at least, those of us not in the building that night. May god have mercy on them all.
Guest Choken One Posted August 24, 2003 Report Posted August 24, 2003 It's just so Moolah can say she wrestled in 7 different ages. 20's 30's 40's 50's 60's 70's and 80's. I don't have any problems with it and at least it's in her hometown... She done alot for the industry...
Guest Choken One Posted August 24, 2003 Report Posted August 24, 2003 If they wanted they should just have Heel Molly or Heel Gail beat Moolah whom is the Hogan of Female Wrestling...Always over.
RavishingRickRudo Posted August 24, 2003 Report Posted August 24, 2003 From what I've heard, she's done a lot more to hold the industry back...
RavishingRickRudo Posted August 24, 2003 Report Posted August 24, 2003 Ah, so the crowd apathy to Moolah is being "always over"??
Guest BionicRedneck Posted August 24, 2003 Report Posted August 24, 2003 Why can't they do this on a house show or something?
bobobrazil1984 Posted August 24, 2003 Report Posted August 24, 2003 but did he promise that it would be on TV? Book this shit as a dark match, or a velocity/heat thing, or a house show or something! C'mon Vince!
edotherocket Posted August 24, 2003 Report Posted August 24, 2003 The time to really start worrying is if she's booked against RVD.
BifEverchad Posted August 24, 2003 Report Posted August 24, 2003 but did he promise that it would be on TV? Book this shit as a dark match, or a velocity/heat thing, or a house show or something! C'mon Vince! Yeah, fuck it.. Afterall, she is 80. She'll never know the difference.
MillenniumMan831 Posted August 24, 2003 Report Posted August 24, 2003 I figured everyone would know that she'd be booked against The Real Brock Lesnar. She won't have a hip to lay on.
Guest deadbeater Posted August 24, 2003 Report Posted August 24, 2003 Wouldn't it be cool if Molly wins, then proceed to literally bury her, and call herself the Fabulous Molly, saying she deserves that moniker more than anyone? She now lives in South Carolina too.
MarvinisaLunatic Posted August 24, 2003 Report Posted August 24, 2003 HHH: Hey, uh..Po..Vince..can I get a match when I turn 80.. Vince:..anything you want.. Flair: What about me, whooooo!? Vince: You already got your match..
Guest Choken One Posted August 24, 2003 Report Posted August 24, 2003 Ummm... Wouldn't Fabolous Mona be more appros?
Guest JMA Posted August 24, 2003 Report Posted August 24, 2003 (edited) I'd consider Moolah to be the Freddie Blassie of women's wrestling, rather than the Hogan. Give her a match with Molly and send her out on a high-note. Edited August 24, 2003 by JMA
Use Your Illusion Posted August 24, 2003 Report Posted August 24, 2003 Well...at least it's not Luger. Look at it from that perspective. UYI
Downhome Posted August 24, 2003 Report Posted August 24, 2003 I don't see what's wrong with this. It's only being done for two reasons, those being to show respect for her and to pop the home town crowd. Add to that the fact that the match will be very short, and I see no reason to bitch about this. Besides, Moolah/Young usually pop the ratings for the segments they are a part of.
Adam Posted August 24, 2003 Report Posted August 24, 2003 I dont have a problem with it, as long as it only takes up 5 minutes, and as long as Mae isn't involved.
CanadianChick Posted August 24, 2003 Report Posted August 24, 2003 So, do you guys think it'll be Molly?
Guest wrestlingbs Posted August 24, 2003 Report Posted August 24, 2003 Ten bucks says it's Bischoff. Wait, I don't have ten bucks.
CanadianChick Posted August 24, 2003 Report Posted August 24, 2003 Molly or Brock... That made me giggle. How often does someone ask the question "Who will such-and-such be facing?" and the answer is "Brock or Molly"?
Use Your Illusion Posted August 24, 2003 Report Posted August 24, 2003 I got a fiver on Kane. SHITTY TOMBSTONES & BOTCHED CAMERA WORK GALORE~!
Jobber of the Week Posted August 24, 2003 Report Posted August 24, 2003 Sweet jesus. I was hoping this would be a house show. Trish and Molly are busy, so they're out. She'd have to carry Gail Kim, so she's out. And Skinny Bitch is too good to be true. My guess is Jackie Gayda. Oh dear god.
