Guest Trivia247 Report post Posted October 9, 2003 There is some resentment over the fact that Chavo Guerrero is receiving a lot of television time, with many believing that it's only due to his relation to Eddie Guerrero. There are also those who are opposed to the reformation of Los Guerreros that will eventually lead to a feud between the two. While Chavo was out with an injury, Eddie established himself as a main eventer, and this angle will bring him back down to mid-card status. Stephanie McMahon will be the special guest on Thursday night's edition of The Jimmy Kimmel Show. The 10/6 edition of RAW scored a 3.4 cable rating, with a 5 share, according to Nielsen Media Research. The show did hours of 3.3 and 3.6. The highest rated segment was the overrun, which scored a 4.1. The 10/4 edition of Velocity scored a 0.6 cable rating, with a 1 share. The 10/4 edition of Confidential scored a 0.5 cable rating, with a 1 share. The 10/5 edition of Sunday Night Heat scored a 1.0 rating, with a 2 share.

Continue... (Thanks to WWE.com) The agents held yet another meeting with the talent this week to once again stress their concern with the amount of injuries. The injuries they are most concerned with are those to the neck, which have become quite common over the past few months. Wrestlers were told to stop using certain moves, one of which was the overhead belly-to-belly suplex. Bradshaw is currently suffering from some sort of leg injury, but hasn't missed any shows as a result. For those wondering why Rhyno seems to be on the job squad as of late, it's because Vince McMahon feels that he doesn't show enough intensity in his matches. If you recall, a few weeks back Vince came down to the ring during Rhyno's match with Tajiri at a house show and basically said that the match sucked, and he was stopping it. Some insiders believe that the reason for Rhyno's failure to make it to that "next level" is that he, much like Rob Van Dam, is labeled as a Paul Heyman/ECW creation. As odd as it may sound, there are still some within WWE who are biased against former WCW and ECW wrestlers and they use that to determine who gets pushed.

Oh god, give me a break. Any way you slice it, Chavo is great. Even if this is the reason that the WWE suits are pushing him, it doesn't really matter because he deserves it, IMO.

Guest Maccam16 Report post Posted October 9, 2003 I can't really understand the hate, seeing as how Chavo is a very talented wrestler. Well he is a talented wrestler but he lacks the right amount of charisma. And he's not really over with the fans. Just imagine how over he'd be as a singles wrestler.

Guest Trivia247 Report post Posted October 9, 2003 well maybe it just petty jealously... the guy is obviously good for the spot he is in, but he is the Nephew of Eddy, and Eddie guerrero is one of the top popular stars on Smackdown if not the top star...and it seems Smackdown is getting more response from the latino community. I think its unwarrented hatred and those who are getting pissy about it just sad they can't develope anything for themselves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dpac 0 Report post Posted October 9, 2003 The Chavo situation reminds me alot of Owen Hart a few years back. I remeber people claiming that Owen was getting more airtime just because he was Bret's brother. Neither siutation seems fair to me. Chavo and Owen are and were great talents that deserve everything given to them. I see it more as underapreciated than anything else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Silence 0 Report post Posted October 9, 2003 If certain WWE wrestlers feel Chavo isn't deserving of a push just because he's the nephew of Eddie Guerrero, then those wrestlers should take a closer look at Randy Orton, who got pushed into a major stable on Raw called Evolution just because his father and grandfather were in the wrestling business, and isn't as talented as Chavo Guerrero is.

Guest Fook Report post Posted October 9, 2003 While I agree that a feud with Chavo would bring Eddie down the card, it doesn't mean that Chavo doesn't deserve a push. If they're looking to push more latino wrestlers, Chavo is the next logical step after Eddie. And it's not like he was a jobber before his injury, he was in the tag team title hunt. I feel that Chavo deserves his current push, but keep him away from Eddie for now. Put him in a feud with Tajiri over the cruiser belt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I remeber people claiming that Owen was getting more airtime just because he was Bret's brother. Neither siutation seems fair to me. Chavo and Owen are and were great talents that deserve everything given to them. I see it more as underapreciated than anything else. People said that? Owen Hart drew more genuine heel heat in his sleep than Chavo has in his career. No one dissed Owen Hart's position in the company, he was the most dependable and consistant heel on the roster. Chavo is nothing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Choken One Report post Posted October 9, 2003 Owen didn't do squat for WWE for 2 1/2 years until He drew great heel heat and wwe ran with it...and Owen kept himself on a high ground because of his status as a performer not as Bret' little borther...

Guest Mulatto Heat Report post Posted October 9, 2003 Owen had been in limbo for almost a YEAR before Survivor Series 1993 when Bret was used as a catalyst for the heel turn, and he wasn't even the original choice for it.

EricMM 0 Report post Posted October 10, 2003 I wonder if the agents have ever thought of making the wrestlers wrestle less often, and giving them more nights off.

Guest Boomer Sprinklespax Report post Posted October 10, 2003 So like...what is Angle going to resort to? Tazz:"THE JUHMANS!" Wouldn't "The Juhmans" put just as much if not more stress on the neck? This is really a stupid decision. Taking a belly-to-belly is a basic bump that any wrestler worth a damn should be able to do properly and, to my knowledge, nobody has ever been seriously injured from one belly-to-belly (unlike the piledriver, which has crippled people in one maneuver). Taking it away is ridiculous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
