slimm44 0 Report post Posted January 15, 2004 I got back from the show tonight and it was mediocre. Some of the matches weren't too bad but the crowd wasn't into it. Plus it was not as crowded as last week either. A few of us were upset Rave dd not appear but we let our frustration out after the show ended... After the whole Callis/Watts "I quit" segment Jarrett and crew stayed in the ring to taunt us and we taunted back.Two guys (who were drunk the entire night) tossed their beer bottles into the ring and it pissed off Jarrett more. He had fans taunting him and wanting to fight him. More bottles kept being thrown in the ring and Jarrett trying not to get hit, swung the chair like a bat. Abyss tried to calm him down while Callis was frustrated too. It got really out of hand and Security tried but failed to calm people down and stop the bottle throwing. Jarrett finally went backstage and the fans were laughing, and having a good time. Mike Tenay was pissed though. Dutch Mantel made an appearance to try and calm him down but Tenay blew up at him. I don't think it was a serious matter but the fans got more out of hand then than back in April when Jarrett beat Raven for the belt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Chaplin Report post Posted January 15, 2004 you know I remember reading a lot of shoot interviews on this very site, and in Pure Dynamite about how in the 'good ole days' how fans nearly wanted to kill the heels after a match, and the promotor's would love stuff like this happening because it meant heels getting heat, heat keeps drawing seat. Now it sounds like they don't want this to happen, rather the fans to sit down watch wrestling, cheer and leave. Hey Jeff, Tenay, the fans are getting into it. It makes me sort of wish that Kayfabe was in effect, even though we know it's fake can't we pretend it's real? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Corey_Lazarus 0 Report post Posted January 15, 2004 See, I could understand being pissed that they're throwing beer bottles into the ring. Are these the glass kind you can buy at the store down the street, or the plastic kind they sell at concerts and such? If it's the plastic kind, then I don't see too much of a problem, as it means the fans are genuinely angry with the heels. If they're the glass kind, I can see being angry, because anybody that throws glass at somebody in the ring that just performed for you is an idiot and doesn't deserve to see wrestling live.

Guest The Last Free Voice Report post Posted January 15, 2004 Totally off topic but OH MY GOODNESS is that really Danielson in that pic? That is the funniest thing i've seen in a long time. On topic: Uh, TNA should try a RoH like pusdo-kayfabe. Almost Kayfabe with a "smart" edge. They have the perfect delivery device in Tenay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
