Guest Dave O'Neill, Journalist Report post Posted October 21, 2003 Even the haters have to say that C+J beating up poor, useless Randy Orton to get the bounty was pretty funny. And Their Spike Dropkick is pretty cool Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Coffey Report post Posted October 21, 2003 I think the elevated double team dropkick licks balls. It's shit. It's not a credible finisher in my eyes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zack Malibu 0 Report post Posted October 21, 2003 Personally, I don't mind them myself. I was a big fan of the Natural Born Thrillers in WCW and I'm interested in seeing where the WWEized version of the stable (which is precisely what the new Evolution or whatever it is will be with Orton, Maven, J&C). They're just REALLY bland, and people aren't going to get into them just because they're up against the big bad heels. You need a reason to care about people, and since WWE doesn't realize that, it results in these heatless matches we see. Having them go over on Orton last night would have been gold, but...well, you know exactly what kind of bitching is going to follow, so I'll stop here.

Tawren 0 Report post Posted October 21, 2003 Why do I have to admit anything? The stealing money was a cool idea, but blowing it off in minutes just to feed HHH wasn't good. And their dropkick sucks ass. OMG A DROPKICK~! Whatever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If that's what Evolution becomes then they best damn grab Mike Sanders and have him join because none of those people have any mic skills...and in a day and age where promos are king I would hate having to hear that group cut a promo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zack Malibu 0 Report post Posted October 21, 2003 BTW, having missed RAW last night and not watching the tape yet, what's with the "Jyndrak" spelling. Did WWE actually alter his last name, or is it a rip on how everything "i" became "y"? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Dave O'Neill, Journalist Report post Posted October 21, 2003 Zack, I think the just changed it, its the WWE, no explaination needed. Plunderin, Cade can, ALLEGEDLY (according to my OVW watching friend) cut a coherent promo. But Mike Sanders would be an excellent pick-up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unless you're extremely over in another promotion before coming to the WWE then you can't have the same first name as somebody else on the roster.

Guest FrigidSoul Report post Posted October 21, 2003 And Shane Helms a Gregory! I know somebody who actually talks to him on a regular basis. I had her tell him that name is stupid (to which he agreed, although he said he loves the gimmik of Hurricane) and then I had her ask why he no longer uses the Vertabreaker as it made me mark out everytime...he said it was due to legit injuring 70% of the people he used it on Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Highland 0 Report post Posted October 21, 2003 I notice that alot of OVW watchers say the talent is very good, but for some reason when they're called up, they're put into boring gimmicks, or simply buckle under the new pressure. Thoughts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Highland 0 Report post Posted October 21, 2003 Yeah, I used to cringe everytime I saw him use the Vertabreaker; one slip and he'd break the guy's neck or worse. WWE was smart in this case on banning the move. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest JMA Report post Posted October 22, 2003 Jindrak and Cade > Maven Seriously, if Maven joins the Orton led Evolution it will bomb. Maven needs to be less bland and get a better name. It wouldn't be as bad if he went by Maven Huffman instead of just Maven. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
