Guest wrestlingbs Report post Posted September 15, 2004 Because Big Vis was soooooooooo the draw back in the day. Remember when the WWE tried to HIDE the fact that they are becoming a parody of thenselves? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Enigma 0 Report post Posted September 15, 2004 Well, it is nice continuity. Undertaker, JBL, Viscera, and Gangrel were all once members of the Ministry of Darkness at the same time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndrewTS 0 Report post Posted September 15, 2004 Visc is back?! Okay, it's officially 1995 again. Thanks a lot, Vince. Are we sure it is Visc and not just an even fatter Mark Henry? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest GreatOne Report post Posted September 15, 2004 You know, next time WWE comes to Spokane they MIGHT wanna check out what's happening locally. In May it was the Lilac Parade, they still did reasonably well despite it. Tonight it was the primary which was rather uneventful--i.e. everyone (mostly Republican) that was expected to move on to the November ballot did. BTW I got stuck helping out for the last four hours--thus blowing my shot of seeing the return of King Mabel and the satanic wrestler who spits red liquid, lucky me................ Gangrel & Viscera are siding with Bradshaw?? Well Taker never made Bradshaw pay for 'forgetting who brought him to the dance', remember? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They never got their rub from Taker, so that's why they're back. I wonder how they're gonna explain this.... Song and dance number? Undertaker: I have many friends All: Yes you really do! Undertaker: I put over my friends All: On occasion that is true! Mideon: I worked the indies for 5 years, little money did I make... Undertaker: Never worry my old friend, I'll bring you back for old time's sake Viscera: Mark Calloway may be a corpse, but his heart is purely gold! Undertaker: You can come back for a week, and sell my lame restholds Gangrel: I never was that over, my wife's a crazy whore Undertaker: I promise you'll be over more than Bradshaw was before TAKE IT VINCE!

AndrewTS 0 Report post Posted September 15, 2004 Billy Gunn is probably growing back the pr0nstar 'stache as they try to find out which OVW kid should be his new long-lost brother. Oh, Gangrel? I guess we're not stuck in *95* exactly... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Enigma 0 Report post Posted September 15, 2004 I always thought it was ridiculous that WWE asked Gangrel to completely drown his arms in tattoos and then fired him after he did it. So, good for Gangrel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Decadent Slacker Report post Posted September 15, 2004 I have this bad feeling Gangrel might end up getting the Mordecai push...but his music rules so i don't care. Vis can rot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Ronnie755 Report post Posted September 15, 2004 I doubt they are back long term. They'll probably get squashed by Taker next week and then be gone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mecha Mummy 0 Report post Posted September 15, 2004 At this point, the whole point of Smackdown is that it's completely fucking nuts. Or, at least, it seems that way to me. So Heidenreich reading a poem and Gangrel and Viscera returning just make it better, especially the Viscera part. I missed him and his dynamic "I'm totally wearing a garbage bag" look. Good job, Bruce Prichard, for keeping the insanity factor high. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Art Sandusky 0 Report post Posted September 15, 2004 Viscera's singles music was underrated big time. I'd take it just as quickly as Gangrel's. Still, this looks like a completely insane show outside of the Big Show contract stuff, which is the only non-surreal part. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Still, this looks like a completely insane show outside of the Big Show contract stuff, which is the only non-surreal part. Wasn't Viscera's music just a generic rap beat? And you wanna talk underrated theme songs, "Blood Brother" for Christian that he used for one week or so but still ended up on the CD, that was a swank tune.
