Boner Kawanger 0 Report post Posted March 28, 2004 WWE developmental talent Nick Dinsmore worked the RAW house shows this weekend as "Eugene." The Eugene character will be an over the top simpleton who loves wrestling. His character is apparently based on Warren from Something About Mary. Dinsmore will be filming vignettes soon to hype his on-TV debut. Credit: PWInsider.com I am speechless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Boner Kawanger 0 Report post Posted March 28, 2004 Beans and Franks? The one and only. Given time to reflect, won't this just be a re-hash of the Saturn angle, only this time with the pathos and dialogue of Brian Gerwitz? And isn't Dinsmore supposed to be talented?

Guest Quik Report post Posted March 28, 2004 We have to kill Gewirtz. Right now... I'm not joking. We have to brutally murder him, sever his head and place it on a sharp stick outside Titan Towers. What a fucking retard. WHo would honestly think that this gimmick would get over? It's rediculous... remember beaver cleavage? Remember John Heidenendkdfslfzejgl;jgzreich's "Little John"? they're stupid gimmicks guaranteed to not get over from the very beginning. It's fucking dumb, and it's no wonder this company can seldom bring in fucking ratings. FUCK VINCE! FUCK THIS COMPANY! THEY'RE IDIOTS! ALL OF THEM! Goddamnit, why did I have to read this? It's so stupid it insults me as a human being more than as a wrestling fan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AndrewTS 0 Report post Posted March 28, 2004 *Stolen from Quik's sig, but bears repeating* "Brian Gewirtz wrote for "Jenny". Yeah, that was partially his fault. So why does he have a job writing for a wrestling company when he couldn't handle writing a fucking sitcom?" Well, the (s)hits just keep on comin'. Anyone remember when Sid had a...well, I don't know if you'd call him a manager, but basically he'd bring a retarded dude out with him during his matches. I think it was in 2000 in WCW.

On this topic though, could Vince not see how this is going to offend 70-75% of the population?

2GOLD 0 Report post Posted March 28, 2004 So, when does Nick get blamed for the character not getting over and get his release? First they make him "Doink" and now they do this to him. Who did he piss off? Did he make fun of Triple H while in OVW??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Choken One Report post Posted March 28, 2004 well...They can always call Goldberg back up and tweak his gimmick up and when he no-shows or is "off" they can have a gag where they go "Goldberg is on YET ANOTHER jewish holiday~!"... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fökai 0 Report post Posted March 29, 2004 On this topic though, could Vince not see how this is going to offend 70-75% of the population? There's no such thing as an offensive gimmick anymore - in today's television landscape, ANYTHING that can be construed as "offensive" has been done before. On the other hand, angles like "the Katie Vick saga" were just offensive to our intelligence. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
