edotherocket 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2003 I haven't seen a thread about this so I'm assuming someone's already reported who this will be or no one really cares. Who do you think will be the new GM? And what happens to them when Steph gets back in 6 weeks or so? It's going to be Sable isn't it? Mebbe Austin as a long shot.

Use Your Illusion 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2003 Austin violated his contract on RAW, therefore he'll probably be fired and taken to SD! by Linda. Someone intelligent made that asumption, so whoever it was, take credit. Oh right, that was EVERYONE UYI Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
edotherocket 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2003 But then what does Steph do when she comes back? Just become a full time main eventer and drop the GM role? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Choken One Report post Posted October 20, 2003 Since she didn't really QUIT...her job is of course still hers legally...I'm sure she'll be away for a while anyways... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MarvinisaLunatic 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2003 Does it really make sense to fire someone and give them the same job somewhere else in the same "Company"? Of course it is the WWE..but I do think they would be wise to leave out the Austin gets fired and rehired part and just move him to Smackdown due to talent concerns/complaints. And RAW won't really need a new GM..theres still Eric Bischoff.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndrewTS 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2003 But then what does Steph do when she comes back? Just become a full time main eventer and drop the GM role? Join her hubby on Raw. Austin violated his contract on RAW, therefore he'll probably be fired and taken to SD! by Linda. I wish I had a job where you can fuck up your job constantly, and the worst that can happen is that you just have to work somewhere else but get more status and power. Does it really make sense to fire someone and give them the same job somewhere else in the same "Company"? Actually, it's practically a promotion since Austin goes from being co-GM to full-blown GM.

Lil' Bitch 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2003 It would hurt RAW more if Austin was gone so I'd rather have Eric get moved over to SD instead so they can quit with the Co-GM bullshit. I'll take Eric over Stephanie any day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Downhome 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2003 I predicted that Austin would become the GM of Smackdown the very MOMENT that I first heard any talk of Vince trying to make Steph quit. It's quite obvious to me that Austin will be shipped to SD by Linda, in order for her to get payback on Vince for what he did to their "little girl". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dangerous A 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2003 How about........ NO GM'S AND MORE WRESTLING? You should be given a prize. We don't need GM's/Vice President/Co Owner/authority figure roles anymore. Why do we need them to push the action? Why not just schedule matches and let the wrestlers and the matches do the action pushing? This retarded template of using an authority figure to make things spin in wrestling is a relic from Russocity. It's dated and needs to be eliminated from the shows in place of something new and fresh. GM's are stale and no longer entertaining. They don't draw ratings or money or buyrates. Fuck Austin, Bischoff, Steph, Vince, and any other stupid ass goddamn role that is like a GM! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest FrigidSoul Report post Posted October 20, 2003 In a perfect world it would be JJ Dillon...always liked him as WCW's Commish. He never tried to steal anybody's heat. Of course this world isn't perfect and it'll either be Sable, a McMahon, or Albert just to piss us all off Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
