The Dames 0 Report post Posted January 1, 2005 I'm really excited about next Sunday's Raw PPV, not so much because of the matches themselves, but because they're going to be in Puerto Rico with a super hot crowd. Unfortunately for them, Carlito isn't part of the Raw roster, but it hit me like a ton of bricks after SD this past week that they could easily work him into the PPV. His new storyline is that he wants to get Teddy Long out of office as SD GM. They can easily say that Carlito was back home in P.R. recouping his shoulder injury and he appears in a backstage segment, looking for Eric Bischoff. He finds him and tells him a little bit about his plan and Bischoff seems interested (since they shot a couple of angles at the last 2 interpromotional PPV's about Bischoff & Long). Since Bischoff is more like a tweener right now and not a full fledged face, the fans would buy it. That's enough to pop the fans and add a dimension to his storyline. Just to add to that, lets say that Carlito happens to spit in someone's face from the Raw roster. He'll get the heel heat, but he won't be able to get his comeuppance since he's on SD...until the draft happens after Mania and you got yourself another feud there. Just spouting off ideas, what do you guys think? Dames Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Shadow Behind You Report post Posted January 1, 2005 Too damn logical. It would never work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Dames 0 Report post Posted January 1, 2005 Yeah, I know. You know, I wish I'd be in a position where I could show Heyman that I could be of use to him in a creative fashion, just so I could work with the man. I'd love to hear his reaction to my Gerwitz story. Dames Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Shadow Behind You Report post Posted January 1, 2005 I think in all honestly, the two of us should work. I have the best booking ideas, you have the logical storyline ideas. Dames and Shadows should contact Turner, get his money, call Heyman up get him on board, buy out ROH and bring in the very few TNA workers worth a shit(Styles, Daniels) and re-revolutionize wrestling again with great wrestling and great stories.

The Dames 0 Report post Posted January 1, 2005 If it was that easy, I would have done it years ago... Keep in mind that it's extremely difficult to break into the business without any connects (mine have been severly severed) and even harder to gain the respect of the locker room as well.

The Dames 0 Report post Posted January 1, 2005 On an unrelated note, if I was able to choose a creative staff from those here at TSM, the top 2 on my list would be Loss & Rudo. That would be an interesting work environment for sure. Dames Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Shadow Behind You Report post Posted January 1, 2005 Fine then. Can I be Junior Assistant to Loss? I mean we know Rudo's bringing Rando with him... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steviekick 0 Report post Posted January 1, 2005 Your idea sounds fine. They could even further it at the Rumble, with Carlito tussling with the Raw guys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Dames 0 Report post Posted January 1, 2005 First off, this isn't really happening or I'd be going fucking bananas. I wish it was. But hypothetically, I'd rather keep it small or else it becomes too hectic. MAYBE one other person on the team, but that's about it. I have no idea how big or small the supposed roster would be anyway. Dames Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lil' Bitch 0 Report post Posted January 2, 2005 I wouldn't be surprised if CCC did jump to RAW since he's getting tired of putting up with GM Long. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Shadow Behind You Report post Posted January 2, 2005 By that admission; why doesnt' JBL do the same? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lil' Bitch 0 Report post Posted January 2, 2005 Yeah, but it would really weird to see the WWE Champion jump to the other show with its own champion already there, unless JBL convinced to trade him over to RAW for HHH. (Yeah right. ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Shadow Behind You Report post Posted January 2, 2005 Funny how HHH isn't even the champion and yet we all act as if it's welded to his waist. which it is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Jason Report post Posted January 2, 2005 I gotta admit, that is a pretty cool storyline. And if the WWE went with it, it would definitely be exciting. However, I think CCC would be much better served on the SD roster where he would be given a better chance to shine. On Raw, he would very likely get caught in the numbers game and would not have the same impact. If he stays on SD, there is a lot more the WWE could do with fire-Long campain. If he does make a proposed jump to Raw in April, that leaves the WWE with about 3 months to build up this case against Teddy. And even at that, would one man jumping ship be enough to get him fired? In any event, I must say, I really like this idea of yours!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest LooneyTune Report post Posted January 2, 2005 Wait, they are doing ANOTHER "Fire the Babyface GM-Commish-Whatever" angle? I guess it's hard to come up with new ideas for WWE when doing something like this. CCC should stick to Smackdown though. He has a better chance of getting over than on the Raw is Triple H show.

But still...) than pretty much everyone on the roster? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest LooneyTune Report post Posted January 2, 2005 Carlito isn't that liked in Puerto Rico, so how would he get a face reaction? If anything it will be a heel reaction. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Askewniverse Report post Posted January 2, 2005 A wrestler being in his/her hometown doesn't necessarily mean he/she will get a pop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shooting Star 0 Report post Posted January 2, 2005 Carlito isn't that liked in Puerto Rico, so how would he get a face reaction? If anything it will be a heel reaction. Really it's not as if we hate him it's more like not a lot of people know him since WWC is a joke thanks to his daddy who should have retied years ago so whenever we think WWC we think Carlos and immediatly laugh since he is just a joke a shell of his former self. Therefore anyone from WWC is thought of as a joke down here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In any event, I must say, I really like this idea of yours!!! Don't get me wrong Jason, Carlito would be on SD this whole time. He would make this one and only appearance on a Raw PPV, get people talking & interact with them again only at the Rumble. Last Boy Scout, to answer your question, absolutely, because the Puerto Rican crowds are SERIOUSLY into kayfabe (I am Puerto Rican...trust me) and Carlito is a heel in P.R. so all it will do is give him mega heat. Win/win there. Dames Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
