Who thought making those figures have the legs put together was a good idea?

 

I can understand for high flyers, but BRUTUS BEEFCAKE of all people had the same design.

I would only enjoy a Rockers reunion if they did it right. I mean with the old school outfits and everything.

WHY is attire so important to wrestling fans? I remember reading dozens of posts of ticked off fans after SummerSlam 2002 because Shawn Michaels wasn't wearing his broken heart tights. And then angry fans because Undertaker didn't wear purple gloves or a purple tie at WrestleMania XX.

 

So the most important thing about a wrestler's comeback-- is his attire?

 

Why does this matter so much? Is it because you remember the wrestler through his attire, not his wrestling? Is it because you can remember your favourite moments through picturing the attire (Shawn wearing those ugly white heart pants at WMXII)? How can a wrestler's popularity be determined through his fashion sense?

 

Does anybody have an answer?

I will say one thing, I hope Shawn never again wears those damn completely orange boots that he wore at WM 11 in his match against Kevin Nash, god those were an eyesore! great match but the boots had to go!

Of course we wouldn't Know the whole story of anything...

 

but imagine if our smarkish imagination is true..

 

We know Shawn and Marty hated each other during their tag team run in the WWF, maybe perhaps during their AWA days...

 

So here is the guy you despise, who has went Beyond you as a wrestler and popularity. where as you can't get so much work even in a rival company or indis while your former Partner is skyrocketed to every title in the major promotion. And then suddenly your in the gutter facing up to the Heaven wrestling Federation ready to take your place because this life has been too screwed up for you, then suddenly your most despised rival lends out a hand and picks you up and brushes you off..

 

Now you are cleaning up, all because of the guy that probably was the leading factor to you screwing yourself up in the first place...

 

isn't that ironic.... Don't you think?

 

Think of the best or rather worst case scenero. (sp)

 

Shawn convinces Marty and Vince the best way to save Jenetty is to keep him active, so he gets him hired with the WWE as a Rockers return and Jenetty will take on Kane in revenge for him Putting Shawn on the shelf in storyline.

the leading factor to him screwing up was the fact he's a fucking moron.

 

Shawn Micheals is not the anti-christ for god's sake.

Of course he's not. But he maybe the leading excuse.. there are many many many former teams where one was the star that went on to single success and the other fell by the wayside.

 

I mispoke i should have said perhaps in his mind.

 

Anyone uses anything for a excuse to screw themselves off..

 

Oh I lost my job PUFF PUFF

 

Damn its Raining PUFF PUFF

 

Shawn Michaels gets more pops than me PUFF PUFF

Marty Jannetty might be able to make a Rockers reunion with Shawn Michaels on Raw... If he can get out of the match he's scheduled for at Laura's Rollerskating Emporium in Painesville, Ohio next weekend.

IIRC, they didn't have any serious problems until the sprong-summer of 91, which is what set up the break-up.

Jannetty didn't look that bad in his shoot interview.

I was just gonna say that. He looked cut in the shoot interview, and his complexion looked a lot better. He also claimed "he can still do all he used to do and more."

To answer someones earlier question, Marty Jannetty is 2 years older than Shawn Michaels. I'm pretty sure anyway.

 

As for a comeback... It could work. Jannetty was awesome in his day, but I do agree with the attire. They need their Rocker attire, or something.

 

As for people not knowing him? A Video could show the newer fans, and if Jannetty returned, some of the older fans may come back.

There's no way a Rocker reunion wouldn't be awesome. I'm not saying it wouldn't get stale, but for a couple of shots, it's a no brainer.

It'd give HBK something to do and add to the tag division. Why not.

If there wasn't a Rockers reunion...I'd like to see Jannetty as a heel manager trying to get someone to destroy Shawn Michaels.

Garrison Cade perhaps? He is a former HBK student so there is a link there. Only problem is that Cade has shown very little potential so fare.

If the feud with HBK fails than maybe he could have an exclusive feud with Al Snow on Heat!

Ah I have those figures in my WWF wrestling ring right now. Infact they are just winning a handicap match against Papa Shango, I.R.S and Repo man right now :P

 

 

 

 

Yeah a Rockers reunion would be a good laugh. A bit like when they Had LoD back for one night.
