Chris Masters

Are we supposed to boo him?

The gimmick says yes, but the putting him in with a guy that is a heel says no.

He dissed Flair, a heel. Then again, it's Flair, so I guess it's still heel heat for him.

 

Yah, he looks like every other TREMENDOUSLY GIFTED ATHLETE that nobody gives a damn about. He's like Orton prior to the pushes and without a decent finisher. Then again, maybe that isn't his real finisher.

Is Flair even really a heel though? I mean if you ask me he is over because of his legend status, but the gimmick itself is like a clueless, loyal lackey moreso then a traditional heel. Kind of like Stevie Richards in Raven's Nest.

I think they should have done an ironic gimmick with this "Masterpiece" and have a guy with a figure like, say, Dusty Rhodes or Spike Dudley thinking he's got a hot body.

I'd rather see him and Simon Dean as a tag team.

So rehash Bodydonna Man Mountain Rock?

[Guest Hybrid420]

Didn't he steal Mark Jindrak's old gimmick? I guess not all recycling is good.

Seriously...i just think they should have made him into the next Doink. A giant roided Doink would have been completely unexpected. They could have even given him the combo Doink/Brock music...

 

 

*clown music* DUN DUN DUN *evil death march*

 

similiar to the heel Doink music, but with that nazi-ish feel.

Snitsky can be the 2nd Doink . . . no one would know who is who except for that big ol goatee sticking out of his chinny-chin-chin.

Don't remember it

That's so incredibly sad for longtime Flair fans, yet so incredibly true.

Nono.

Oh yeah

 

Anyways, I don't think he did what I was suggesting at all

Maybe Richards shouldn't be the one to put over the green hosses anymore. First Heidenreich nearly kills him and now this.

[Spaceman Spiff 0]

Maybe they shouldn't have green hosses who need to be put over.

[Guest Coffey]

Maybe Richards forgot how to wrestle because he never gets the opportunity anymore?

[Hunter's Torn Quad 0]

Vince needs to stop foisting his masturbatorial fantasies onto national television, and think about what effect having a hard on for 'roided up clods has on his roster.

I read that as 'vaginal facial injuries'. I'm not sure how that's even possible, although in a locker room featuring Lita you never know.

[MillenniumMan831 0]

It's kinda refreshing to hear about an injury not involving Sparky Plugg.

[Hunter's Torn Quad 0]

I wonder if Masters will get tagged as 'not knowing how to work', or if people will make excuses for it because he's jacked up.

 

That's rhetorical, by the way.

"He's as bad as Jericho." -- HHH, who I believe blamed Jericho for Stevie breaking his foot in 1999

[CanadianChick 0]

Is that where the cheap shot came from? I always wondered. I just assumed it was a random comment that he could giggle to later.

 

How did Jericho break Stevie's foot?

[Guest Loss]

The comment actually came from Jericho smacking Chyna on the back of the head with a hair dryer so hard that he drew blood. HHH was furious at Jericho for that.

 

Jericho didn't really break Stevie's foot. Wrestlers are expected to take their own bumps, and he threw Stevie out of the ring, and Stevie landed wrong and broke his foot.

You know, that is sorta funny looking back on it right now, because I seem to remember Trips hitting Benoit in the back of the head so hard that he drew blood not so long ago.

 

Anyways, man Stevie has bad luck. And didn't the week after that match with Heidenriech, Richards faced him again?

War a Masters/Sparky Plugg match to curtainjerk 'mania

I think so. Of course, at least Richards got his revenge on Heidenreich on a later Heat after Heidenreich had just won a match.

 

I'm not sure if Richards will be allowed to get any revenge on Masters, though.

^^^ 2 chances . . . slim and none . . . and slim is walking out the door.

[Guest Professor X]

Greeting from under the black resistol!

 

I think people were saying the same thing about Batista 2 years ago. Everybody's backstage and in the office have high hopes for this newcomer Chris Masters. He played football has a linebacker in college but I cant remember wich one. That damn old Oklahoma brain is playing tricks on me!! The Masterpiece got the physique, presence and charisma to survive in todays world of sport entertainment. We wish him good luck and a long carreer in the WWE.

[brokentusk16 0]

You know, for some reason, I have a feeling Masters will be filling Batista's spot on Evolution in a morth or so. Cocky bodybuilder type rookie? Sounds like Triple H has a new protege.

I like the whole "making him a blatant homosexual" idea. Like, no innuendo or ambiguity like they did with Billy and Chuck. They should make him a full-blown homosexual. He can tell people to get checked for colon cancer, or talk about AIDS tests. He'd be a massive heel... wrestling fans (especially in the south) hate musucular homosexuals. They could put the belt on him by SummerSlam.

Such a gimmick needs two things to really make it work: Masters needs to wrestle in either a thong or a very tiny speedo, and Masters needs to learn how to do that odd little pelvic thrust dance that Alex Wright used to do back in the day in WCW.

 

I swear to God, if he did the dance, the heat would be unbelievable. Thermonuclear reactors would give off less heat.

[Guest Ransome]

With his 80s gimmick and moveset, Chris Masters' gimmick is doomed from the start.

 

What irritates me most about the multitude of useless lugs they've brought in lately is how little they've bothered to even differentiate them.

 

I mean, Tyson Tomko, Gene Snitsky, John Heidenreich, Luther Reigns, Mark Jindrak, and Chris Masters all wear the same ring attire. The speedos might suit some wrestlers like Rock or Austin, but it hardly makes these lanky hosses look intimidating. Would Kevin Nash or the Undertaker have ever possibly gotten over if they'd debuted wearing speedos? yeech.
