Masked Man of Mystery Posted January 12, 2005 Report Posted January 12, 2005 could someone just clarify what exactly the angle was? The DVD talks about it, but is there beyond Raven brainwashing Sandman's son? Also, how was it resolved?
Precious Roy Posted January 12, 2005 Report Posted January 12, 2005 It involved Sandman's real life wife, Lori Fullington, and his son. The angle was that they were leaving him because he was an alcoholic, with Raven the one pushing them in that direction and telling them how bad Jim was, convincing Lori to violently turn on Sandman and "brainwashing" the kid against Sandman. It was a backdrop to their feud over the ECW title, they traded the belt back and forth a couple of times. I don't think there was ever any resolution to the story other than that they'd left Sandman and joined Raven's Nest. IIRC Lori returned to help Sandman against Raven in 99 after Raven left WCW. She was then involved in a few other angles, getting speared through a table by Rhyno memorably.
CanadianGuitarist Posted January 12, 2005 Report Posted January 12, 2005 Almost. It was 2000 when she returned. She did a lot of good to keep the Sanman as a face, as Jim often pushed Lori out of the way a few times from a gore. It also did a lot to give heel heat to Rhino, especially when at Hardcore Heaven, she was piledriven through a table by Rhino.
Positively Kanyon Posted January 14, 2005 Report Posted January 14, 2005 Ironically, I was watching that DVD last night... Rhyno gored the shit out of her. Steve Corino cut a pretty good promo on that DVD, quite hilarious.
Corey_Lazarus Posted January 14, 2005 Report Posted January 14, 2005 "C'mon, Lori. PUT ME OVER!" Corino owns your fucking soul.
NoCalMike Posted January 14, 2005 Report Posted January 14, 2005 I think the angle concluded when Raven won the title back from Sandman, but during the same match Sandman's son returned to Sandman.
Masked Man of Mystery Posted January 14, 2005 Author Report Posted January 14, 2005 Then his daughter turned on him(Sandman) in XPW, right? Ya woulda thought he might've learned the first time to keep his family away from wrestling rings [/mark]

Wasn't it her that took the piledriver off the ring apron through a table, too? And ate his balls. Balls Mahoney?
