Guest glennsoe Posted June 20, 2004 Report Posted June 20, 2004 Jimmy Snuka Jr. and Mark Magnus are slated to be debuting on the main roster shortly doing what was described to me as an "Arabic" gimmick. I believe they will be getting new ring names as well, obviously. They are doing a dry run of the gimmick in Ohio Valley Wrestling right now. Mike Bucci, who wrestles as Nova, was moved up to the role of Assistant booker in Ohio Valley Wrestling last week, as Jim Cornette made the announcement to all the workers. The plan is for Bucci to work under Cornette as a way to learn more about the creative process of the company, possibly as a way to groom him for the WWE creative team down the line. I do know that the company is talking about hiring more writers for TV, although I haven't confirmed any names. Bucci will be handling the house shows and working under Cornette for TV. This following is classified as a rumor, but there was talk going around that Alexis Laree may be brought up to the Raw roster soon under the name "Tina." I haven't heard anything concrete to confirm it, but there has been talk about it over the last few days, so it's a possibility. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Guess this means that Nova stays in OVW for a while, and it's BETTER than being slaughtered by Taker & Mordecai..And i ALL for Alexis on the raw roster.....

Now if they'd only cancel the 2 1/2 months of crap to get to that point and declare her the winner, everything would be fine.
Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes Posted June 20, 2004 Report Posted June 20, 2004 .....HAHAHA! If it's true Alexis will be the RAW Diva Search winner (which means it was..gasp..planned ahead of time), it just shows how gullible some people are who think they would win.
HollywoodSpikeJenkins Posted June 20, 2004 Report Posted June 20, 2004 *prays to the Wrestling God* Please....have Alexis win this damn Diva Search. PLEASE.

Guest Trivia247 Posted June 20, 2004 Report Posted June 20, 2004 JR: It will be brillant I tell you vince, Jimmy Jr and Mark as arab types... Oh the people will Hate them! Bruce Prichard: Sounds like a Golden Idea. Vince: Yes but isn't Jimmy ....Samoan? Or Fijian or whatever they are called? JR: Bah Gawd Vince who would notice someone who is dark skinned and tanned being Samoan and being Dark skinned and tanned being arab? No One! Bruce: IIIIIiIIiiI LOVEEEEEE The Idea..... Vince: Quite Frankly Unless I hear any dissenting opinion (The muffled sound in the distance is the thousands of Smarks protesting outside throwing rocks at the bullet proof windows) Then Quite frankly we got ourselves a Al Qaeda like tag team. We will even have them managed by the Sultan and Sgt Slaughter.... Find me Rikishi and Slaughter.. the phone rings... JR: Hello??? Ohhh Ummm Vince is uhhh not here, No No Jimmy we were not gonna put your son in some arab tag team gimmick, what type of Hoss loving BBQ sauce eating Hate Cruiserweight Produce wrestlecrap day after day outfit do you think we are running? Ok Jimmy Bubye and STONE COLD! STONE COLD! STONE COLD! CLICK Vince: Good job JR, quite frankly if I had answered the phone I would have quite frankly folded to Jimmy Snuka and not send his son into a humiliating gimmick that would probably get him hate and death threats.

geniusMoment Posted June 20, 2004 Report Posted June 20, 2004 Alexis could not win the Diva search, WWE would be in violation of false advertising laws. I am in college right now majoring in advertising. Then again Vince feels he is above the law, so go ahead and try it. I hope a class action lawsuit sounds nice.

It's Vince McMahon trying to get off.
Guest Real F'n Show Posted June 20, 2004 Report Posted June 20, 2004 Is Snuka Jr. any good in the ring?
Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes Posted June 20, 2004 Report Posted June 20, 2004 Is Snuka Jr. any good in the ring? Think Nathan Jones except Samoan.

Rob E Dangerously Posted June 20, 2004 Report Posted June 20, 2004 If I had Snuka Jr on TNM7 (hint hint).. then he could 'test out' his gimmick in WWW.. while working as Jimmy Snuka Jr. "From Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.. Jimmy Snuka Jr". I have no idea where I could get a Magnus export from. Where has he worked? (same with Snuka)
Guest Real F'n Show Posted June 20, 2004 Report Posted June 20, 2004 Snuka's worked for WXW. I think that's Afa's fed.

Dark Age Posted June 21, 2004 Report Posted June 21, 2004 He seems to work in a 'comedy' post, every third post or so. It isn't funny.
Nevermortal Posted June 21, 2004 Report Posted June 21, 2004 If it isn't a comedy post, it's a lame-ass attempt at sarcasm about people disliking the Undertaker. Those too, are equally unfunny.

They should bring in Big Bossman and Akeem and have them put over the Arabs by getting brutally destroyed.
Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes Posted June 21, 2004 Report Posted June 21, 2004 Even Vince isn't dumb enough to do that. Just bring back the Twin Towers period. They ruled bitches.
SuperJerk Posted June 21, 2004 Report Posted June 21, 2004 Bucci was great in a dark match I saw a few months ago. Who is Alexis Laree?
Nevermortal Posted June 21, 2004 Report Posted June 21, 2004 Even Vince isn't dumb enough to do that. Just bring back the Twin Towers period. They ruled bitches. I blame al-Qaeda.
Zack Malibu Posted June 21, 2004 Report Posted June 21, 2004 I thought this was going to be about Nova/Idol getting called up, which I would have been all for. Magnus and Snuka? Eh, I don't know about that. Haven't seen any OVW stuff past April yet, so I haven't been able to see them trying this out. I'm also all for Alexis coming up to the main roster.
Guest Deviant Posted June 21, 2004 Report Posted June 21, 2004 I was expecting an Arabic gimmick two years ago... You just knew Vince wouldn't be able to miss another opportunity for cheap stereotypes and insults. I just didn't expect the Arabs to be played by a Samoan and a white guy (Magnus is white, right?) Alexis winning the Diva Search would make it all worth while. Makes a fuckload more sense than actually giving some chick a quarter of a million dollars for sending in a softcore porn photo of herself... Of course, the idea is not to find a female wrestler. Also, while Alexis is cute, they'd probably have difficulty in making people believe that the fans voted her to be the hottest entrant. Although, if she were to win it, she could be a valet that takes crazy bumps, ala her stint in the Gathering.
SuperJerk Posted June 21, 2004 Report Posted June 21, 2004 Okay, checked the OVW website. SUPERSTAR PROFILE NAME: Alexis Laree AGE: 24 HEIGHT: 5' 2" WEIGHT: 130 lbs. HOMETOWN: Richmond, VA YEARS AS A PRO: 5 FAVORITE WRESTLERS GROWING UP: Ric Flair, Randy Savage, Roddy Piper OUTSIDE INTERESTS & HOBBIES: Horseback Riding, Swimming, Playing Violin, Working Out ATHLETIC BACKGROUND - HIGHSCHOOL: Gymnastics FAVORITE BAND / MUSICIAN: No Doubt, Journey, Elvis FAVORITE ACTOR: Johnny Depp, Ed Norton FAVORITE ACTRESS: Marilyn Monroe FAVORITE MOVIE: Dirty Dancing FAVORITE FOOD: Italian Exciting young star who turned pro straight out of highschool and is now very popular in OVW
Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes Posted June 21, 2004 Report Posted June 21, 2004 Definitely not the best photo of her.
Guest Trivia247 Posted June 21, 2004 Report Posted June 21, 2004 If it isn't a comedy post, it's a lame-ass attempt at sarcasm about people disliking the Undertaker. Those too, are equally unfunny. Whew good thing I don't care.
Guest Trivia247 Posted June 21, 2004 Report Posted June 21, 2004 Hey didn't they say at the start of this whole Diva search that they were Not looking for female wrestlers but what they considered were Divas? So Just plain eye candy. So lets say then that Alexis does win in this wonderfully worthless rigged crap. Are they not wanting her to wrestling. At least not at the beginning?
1234-5678 Posted June 21, 2004 Report Posted June 21, 2004 Definitely not the best photo of her. She still looks hot though. Isn't Joey Matthews hitting that?
