HollywoodSpikeJenkins Posted January 30, 2004 Report Posted January 30, 2004 What's his finisher now that he can't use The Kryptonite Krunch? A enziguri?
LucharesuFan619 Posted January 30, 2004 Author Report Posted January 30, 2004 Interestingly, I think Nova was just married six days ago (on the 24th). Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure of it.
Spaceman Spiff Posted January 30, 2004 Report Posted January 30, 2004 I too think it is stupid that the WWE won't let anyone besides primadonna stars use a gimmick that they have already established before coming to WWE. To answer the Bucci/Noble relation question, they are not related. I grew up about 15 minutes from James Gibson (Jamie Noble), and he has no relatives in wrestling. I thought Knoble's real name was Jamie Howard. Or is "Howard" a ring name, too?
notJames Posted January 30, 2004 Report Posted January 30, 2004 It is Howard. And the Jamie/Nova cousin question was a joke. Kinda like how Nunzio was Jamie's "cousin" when he first started working for Vince. (I think.)
humongous2002 Posted January 30, 2004 Report Posted January 30, 2004 OMG, Jon Hedeinreich is still employed by WWE? I thought for sure he would be finished after his "mistakes." Besides, the bastard already looks like he's forty! If Nova is going to wrestle under his real name, WWE might as well release him. How can you market "Mike Bucci" or make the name seem intimidating? If he's Italian, making him a member of the FBI? He could be Big Bucci.
AndrewTS Posted January 30, 2004 Report Posted January 30, 2004 What's his finisher now that he can't use The Kryptonite Krunch? A enziguri? He did this running bulldog where he drove someone's face onto his knee that I saw on Velocity, but probably that's just a regular move. Maybe they could let him use the Spin Doctor, though.
notJames Posted January 30, 2004 Report Posted January 30, 2004 Now that Edge doesn't use it anymore, he can use Novacaine (Downward Spiral)... unless Steiner has any objections.
TheFranchise Posted January 30, 2004 Report Posted January 30, 2004 Also, is it true that they made him cut his hair? God, that must look terrible. It's true. Stephanie told him to cut it because he "looked too much like Triple H." I suppose that's fair. If I was watching TV and out comes Nova, I'm obviously going to think "Shit, that's Triple H!!! He's gotten much thinner, less muscley, is moving faster than normal and has changed his name! What's going on? Where's Evolution?" Nice to know they aren't insulting our intelligence. Remember when they renamed Shane Helms so we wouldn't confuse him with Shane McMahon? That was the dumbest one ever.
Spaceman Spiff Posted January 30, 2004 Report Posted January 30, 2004 Now that Edge doesn't use it anymore, he can use Novacaine (Downward Spiral)... unless Steiner has any objections. Or Kanyon, provided he ever gets on TV.
notJames Posted January 30, 2004 Report Posted January 30, 2004 Does OVW still have a syndicated show?
Dandy Posted January 31, 2004 Report Posted January 31, 2004 James Howard Gibson Jamie Howard was his first ringname. James Gibson is his name. He actually went by the nickname "Doodle" when he was in high school.
AndrewTS Posted January 31, 2004 Report Posted January 31, 2004 Remember when they renamed Shane Helms so we wouldn't confuse him with Shane McMahon? That was the dumbest one ever. I think Steven Regal --> William Regal is just as bad. Oddly, Richards didn't get renamed though.
Guest Anglesault Posted January 31, 2004 Report Posted January 31, 2004 Remember when they renamed Shane Helms so we wouldn't confuse him with Shane McMahon? That was the dumbest one ever. I think Steven Regal --> William Regal is just as bad. Garrison Cade. I win
Guest Basswitch Posted January 31, 2004 Report Posted January 31, 2004 Garrison Cade. I win Nova Invented Winning... **Waits and hopes someone out there gets the joke**
JustJoe2k5 Posted January 31, 2004 Report Posted January 31, 2004 You didn't really think WWE would even try and market Nova in the first place did you?
Kardo Posted January 31, 2004 Report Posted January 31, 2004 Well considering Nova invented marketing and the first place. On a more serious note let the real name trend continue.
