UseTheSledgehammerUh 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2003 Ah, I think The Cat will be gone from WWE by WrestleMania, or at least television. Besides neat entrance music, he has a corny, unfunny sidekick, he looks out of shape, his reports of wrestling @ dark matches weren't positive, and he rambles on the mic like a drunk. Kanyon sucks, by the way. Always has, always will. Can't talk, is boring, hits contrived "INNOVATIVE!" spots, and has ugly ring attire. Liked Mortis, though, because he wrestled a different style. And he was under a cool mask. And he didn't talk. And he was a tag team wrestler. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2GOLD 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2003 I like the Cat but his damn butler is annoying. And after seeing Spanky for a few months, I really don't see the point of the company even keeping him. He really isn't that impressive in any of his matches and his style is probably too fast paced to work in the WWE. He might be amazing at full speed, but at half speed he is rather average at best. Same goes for Paul London. Now why WGTT and Kanyon isn't on Smackdown is beyond me. Although I bet with Kanyon it's they just can't find a gimmick for him. Screw it, run with Mortis. Then you obviously haven't seen Spanky or London doing what they can really do. Which is why I said WWE style I'm sure they are amazing at full speed, but I'm just not seeing much out of them at half speed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
notJames 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2003 So… what is it that Cat does? I've seen him wrestle, and it's not good. I've seen his colour commentary, and it's not good. I've seen his recent SD! in-ring promos, and they're not good. Tell me again what it is that Vince likes about him? If this is some response to the IWC's claims about his hoss-love, he's more gone than I though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Paul Stanley 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2003 I loved the Cat in WCW, probably because they had a perfect thing for him (Commish) Now he's just a dancing black man. Get rid of the sidekick, new music. Get his old music, and make him "Commish of WCW" or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes Report post Posted December 20, 2003 For some reason, I keep saying "Somebody call my mama", so he must be doing something right to make do that. I think his man-servant is fucking hilarious looking. Make Cat into a 6-man tag wrestler, with two really decent/good workers and have him be in the ring 15 seconds at a time.

RavishingRickRudo 0 Report post Posted December 20, 2003 To Vince McMahon, The Cat is the new Slick. Vince has a sort of affinity for MoTown and whatnot... hence Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, Gladys Knight, Lil Richard, Boyz 2 Men, Salt n Pepa, Run DMC, etc. singing at Wrestlemania. I can imagine Vince, growing up in North Carolina, headin over to the wrong side of the tracks to listen to the "black music". Oooh, what times they were. He'd sip on his Dr. Pepper at the back of the broken down music hall and just snap his fingers - never wanting to get too out-of-control. Then he met his estranged father - a staunch Irish fellow who knew the value of marketing to ethnic groups - and this only enhanced his passion for the dark arts.

RavishingRickRudo 0 Report post Posted December 20, 2003 "Soul Brothas" is fine, but I prefer "Sole Bruthaz" - as in, they're all alone in their fight against the man. They can use Tajiri, Yang, Sakoda and Funaki and called them the "Seoul Brothers" as the Asian Chapter of SB Inc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

razazteca 0 Report post Posted December 20, 2003 But but but Tajiri and his body guards are JAPANESE! As for the Sole Bruthaz, I can see a 3 corner top rope finisher. 1st The Cat does the Feliner kick, then Flash Funk & Booker T hit the 450 splash and the Hangover at the same time. Or Booker T & Cat can do the Total Elimination but call it Sweetback Badasssssss Kick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
