Also, no--the Bashams are not over. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2GOLD 0 Report post Posted February 16, 2004 Poor Poor Tough Enough girl. They should have placed her on RAW as sorta the female Giant....even though she's not really that tall. Ok, so I can't think of a real reason to keep her around period. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cherry Blossom Viscount 0 Report post Posted February 16, 2004 *Sigh* Another person off the main roster because the WWE brain trust is as dull as an old butter knife. The gimmick could have worked if you know, the WWE put some effort into it. First of all, an S&M gimmick is one you don't do at all, or you go full force with it. Having the Bashams wear "gimp" outfits and have Miles walking around "whipping" them is NOT going to work. They like punishment right? Well not have them come off as invinceable almost. Make them THE team to beat. There should have been viginettes of Miles basically beating the shit out of them to toughen them up and prepare them. Sick and disturbing shit. It would have definitely got them over. Oh well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jobber of the Week 0 Report post Posted February 16, 2004 I liked Shaniqua better than the Bashams themselves. At least she almost never had a match. That and when she said "Let's go boys, and whip it good!" in her best serious voice. That's such a damn stupid line that it made me laugh with how straight a face it was being delivered.

Its just that I HATE the Worm. When Shanequa clotheslined Scotty when he was about to the Worm, I clapped in awe. Or is the word happiness? Either or, I liked it!

Or is the word happiness? Either or, I liked it! I liked the Worm when it was just a funny move to pop the crowd but, I started to hate it when Scotty started to beat people with it. For all the crap that the People's Elbow gets, which it shouldn't, the Worm is an awful finisher. If Scotty went back to using the Worm as a crowd poper and nothing more then I'd like it again.

2GOLD 0 Report post Posted February 16, 2004 Danny would work better as The Damaja instead wrestling as DANNY. I mean come on, how can anyone take you seriously as a tough guy when you are named Danny? You're right. The "Bashams" need to be split up, repackaged, and sent to different shows. Danny needs to turn back into The Damaja and left on Smackdown. The guy was awesome in that character in OVW and his finisher was better than...I guess the roll up he uses now. I don't know what to do with Doug. He sorta looks like Rick Rude or he kinda did in OVW. I never understood this. Cornette helps them create these great characters in OVW and when they come up, the writing team scraps them and gives them horrible gimmicks. It would be like having a baseball player in AAA, teaching him to be an outfielder, he plays outfield extremely well, and then bringing him up and telling him "Ok, go out there and pitcher eight innings for us". Levithan was a much better character than Deacon Batista and then DAVE. The Damaja is a better character than DANNY Basham. About the only one who improved on his gimmick was Cena while the rest got stuck with crap names. Hell, Bane and Seven should come in as henchmen for Kane or something.

But who would TWGTT face at WMXX? The only other face teams are the APA (which would be a waste of Haas and Benjamin) or the newly formed Kidman-London team (which would be great, but Kidman and London haven't had any TV time apart from on Velocity) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
