Guest Brian Report post Posted June 16, 2004 Look, we know their never going to get behind a division, so why keep the belt around. Holding it doesn't elevate anybody. Being part of the division is a stigma. There's nothing worthwhile in keeping it around unless you're going to push it. You have to be realistic about it. If they were going to do so, they'd need a clean slate. They'd need to be totally innovative with how they go about it. I'd go with a one of those round-robin, point tournaments they do in Japan, culminating with the top two in each bracket of six facing off in mini-tournament. You put certain matches on TV and the others on house shows, feature them, and really go after that. You'd use that as a vehicle to set up feuds and feture the style(s). But they'd really have to go at it for at least a few months, and then after that continue to give them their space. And they'd probably need a seperate booker (Malenko?).

Dark Age 0 Report post Posted June 16, 2004 Of course. The pie could be the conscience of the champion. It offers wisdom and power. Eventually, the pie will be stolen. Then, and only then, do we learn that it can talk. We could have the pie turn heel in a shocking beatdown on Eddie Guerrero. Soon, the pie will be hell bent on dominating SmackDown. Nothing can stop it. That is, except the original champion. He has the power to defeat the pie. He has learnt all the pie's tricks. We then get the big showdown where we learn of the pie's fate. The Pie = MONEY Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CanadianChick 0 Report post Posted June 16, 2004 Maybe this is me just being optimistic, but maybe the division will get a revival. SD needs a way to fill time every week. Why no a semi-competent cruiser division? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fine, I'll force myself to be content with Torrie Wilson trying to be serious wrestler one week, and then doing bikini contests another week. Or, I'll tape Smackdown and watch a two hour show in 30 minutes, thanks the the fast foward button! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

King Cucaracha 0 Report post Posted June 16, 2004 Back on topic: The PIE~! needs to allign himself with Captain Lou Albano, who tries to make the PIE~! talk. Everyone thinks he's crazy, but one week he brings the PIE~! out to the ring and tries to get it to talk. That's when the evil Mr Fuji comes out and says that Japan doesn't like pies, which gets him the evil foriegner heat. Fuji and Albano brawl until Fuji hits Albano with the cane and commits the mortal sin of pulling Albano's beard. Suddenly, the PIE~! speaks, calling Fuji a 'sunnavabitch' and leaps from his stand, hitting Fuji in the face to a pop...because we all know pie to the face=teh comedy. Then Michael Cole can be all like 'OMG, the PIE~! has feelings! It's a human being King! X-Pac did it!'. A Tazz can be all like 'I hate you'. Oh...and it must be referred to as the PIE~! at all times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dark Age 0 Report post Posted June 16, 2004 Can the talking pie have a valet, like a sweet potato with sass or a head of cabbage that isn't afraid to strut her stuff? No. Talking pies are one thing. But potatoes? That's just silly. I've just read the SmackDown! spoilers and I must say I am dissapointed. Read on to be spoiled...... The belt did not become a talking pie. There were no Muppet references, or LOTR references. There was no mention of midgets, or gnomes or even turnips. This just adds another 10 layers of suck onto SmackDown! Back to the PIE~!
