JoeDirt 0 Report post Posted September 30, 2004 Sorry if this isn't worth its own thread, feel free to delete it if it's not. There's a poll at tv.yahoo.com now asking who your favorite WWE star is. I always like to see WWE polls in mainstream outlets and the results. Current numbers: Question: Who's your favorite current WWE star? 4013 votes since Sep 28 2004 HHH 14% 547 votes Chris Benoit 8% 335 votes Eddie Guerrero 7% 294 votes Kurt Angle 7% 271 votes Chris Jericho 9% 360 votes Shawn Michaels 16% 626 votes Randy Orton 8% 333 votes Undertaker 31% 1247 votes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Amazing Rando 0 Report post Posted September 30, 2004 I chose Jericho, and it's kinda sad yet funny that he's beating Benoit, Guerrero, and Orton, the last three champions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest fanofcoils Report post Posted September 30, 2004 I firmly believe anyone who voted Orton did so only to screw up the poll (just like how people love to screw around with wwe.com polls). But since this is a yahoo poll not even in a wwe section, there could be a lot of people who haven't watched recent shows and didn't know Orton is a face now and voted for him thinking of him as a heel.

Guest GreatOne Report post Posted September 30, 2004 Oh please, WWF on AOL was better for pure comic dumbshit value--esp back at the end of 96 'Hey you wanna join the nwo?' 'Roolz' 'Sting's gonna take over the nwo form Hogan' 'kevin nash and scoot hall are really in the wwf' 'if you like sunny press 69' 'randy savage will wrestle ultimate warior at survivor series' 'Chiris Beniot is really trying to take woman' (hey even a blind squirrel finds his nut) And then there was Vince Russo himself (WWFRusso was his screen name so I'm guessing it had to be him) PMing me saying that Ric Flair would be in Michaels' corner against Sid. Good times by all, though the Jets were so gawd-awful (two of my boys at the time were Jets fans) we had fun with the press button in another forum--Press 1 Jets 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have to say I'm fairly surprised at the margin by which Taker has beat HBK and Trips. I would have thought they'd all be around the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, you have to remember that most of the people on Yahoo! are newbie marks, not smarks like most of the people here. Also, from what the people described in the chat rooms, it's the twitchy kind of marks, too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
clean rob 0 Report post Posted September 30, 2004 Yes, and I'm not all surprised by the low(ish) amount of votes for the perennial smark favourites. Just going by crowd reaction I would have thought HHH and HBK would have both performed better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Loss Report post Posted September 30, 2004 I remember that the first places I ever talked wrestling online were the Yahoo chat, the prowrestling.com chat and the ... ahem ... Kevin Nash message board, which I signed up to post in when he started asking for booking suggestions from people who read his webpage. I used to always complain that people told too many jokes and didn't focus enough on content. Whereas now, I .... Nevermind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Loss Report post Posted September 30, 2004 No. In fact, I wrote this long explanation of what I thought they should do and he chimed in with a response. All he said was "I love head." Gotta love Big Sexy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
clean rob 0 Report post Posted September 30, 2004 Say what you will about him, but I'd love to see Nash take Lawler's colour commentary position on Raw. Just randomly coming out with 'I love head' during a match would be 100 times funnier than anything Lawler's come up with in the past 5 years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
