Promoter 0 Report post Posted September 13, 2004 Statement: The only reason Orton got the belt was for WWE to say that he's the youngest wrestler to ever hold a world title level championship in WWE and that it wasn't Brock anymore. Rebuttal: It was part of the marketing machine to increase his face value with the audience. The bigger story was that Orton beat the champion who defeated Trips for the belt and that HHH could not unseat him. This was the root of the break up of Evolution. Of course, this has been kind of a flop and as someone stated expect Benoit to finally lose to HHH soon ruining the whole big story. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hoff 0 Report post Posted September 14, 2004 Statement: Randy Savage v. Steamboat would have been the greatest match in the past 20 years if it had an interfernce-free ending and got 10 more minutes. Rebuttal: Subjectivity. For me, nothing will likely ever top Bret/Owen from X. I'm sure some people thought that match sucked. It's all a matter of opinion. Or preference, I'm not sure which. For argument's sake, I'll agree most the way. Under those circumstances, it would be a strong contender for such a title in any fan's eyes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Everybody from Smackdown will be treated as heels and everybody from Raw will be faces. At the Survivor Series they would have a TWO ring Elimation Chamber match of Evolution & Tweeners vs Team Undertaker & evil forgeinors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lord of The Curry 0 Report post Posted September 20, 2004 If Conway was given the push that Orton has with a more developed character, agreed. The guy has already shown that he has been gifted with more in-ring skills then Orton and his mic work would probably be better too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just don't kill them until AFTER the haircut part of the show is filmed. And now that I think about it, it's actually too late for Shawn, he's been going to Paul Heyman on skullett tips.

Exslade ZX 0 Report post Posted September 20, 2004 Statement: Rob Conway, apart from La Résistance, wrestling solo, WOULD be more entertaining that Randy Orton. No, I don't believe so. I know everyone looks at Rob Conway in that 'Chris Benoit way' aka smark favorite, but I've never really enjoyed him, well that would be going to far, but there's no way in hell I can see him, or ever could see him as being a main eventer. I dont' even know if I could picture him with the IC title around his waist. He's good in the ring, yes, ,but I still don't really get the thought of 'damn that was a hell of a match' after his matches, even the one he had with Benoit. I picture him as a tag wrestler..holding the tag title like he is, possibly a different partner and gimmick, but no, I don't think he'd make a better champion then Orton. Or even Edge. EDIT- and yes, I've seen some preWWE stuff. Statement: Jericho should keep the IC title for a while...or lose it soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Australian Pride 0 Report post Posted September 20, 2004 Statement: Rob Conway, apart from La Résistance, wrestling solo, WOULD be more entertaining that Randy Orton. Rebuttal: Yep, and I think I would have preferred it if he had been traded to SD instead of Rene Dupree. Put Conway in the spot Dupree had where he was feuding with Cena and the matches would have been at least 10 times better, and it may have helped Cena develop his act instead of becoming as stale as he has.

JoeDirt 0 Report post Posted September 20, 2004 Tag and heavyweight titles on both shows would hurt the brand extension. Having the tag belts on both shows would cause too much jumping back and forth between brands, as well. Statement: Steroid use in the WWE is at the same level it was ten years ago.
