Guest MugumboMcgee Report post Posted August 11, 2005 WWE will have some big problems if the crowd turn him heel. As long as Cena keeps his 'chain gang' happy with comments like 'real recognizing real', I'm sure he will remain a face for months to come. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Zarock Report post Posted August 11, 2005 What about Hurricane? I mean, right now he's in a pointless on-and-off again feud against the Hearthrobs, but I doubt that'd be too hard to get out of. Given the right booking, he could have a run as the #1 face, couldn't he? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toxxic 0 Report post Posted August 11, 2005 I'd love that. But there's more chance of Trish being pushed as top face. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He'd need an entirely new gimmick and wins over credible opponents. Even then it would still be a tough sale. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iggymcfly 0 Report post Posted August 12, 2005 Plus, he's not even that interesting. It would take about three monts of a top-level push before he got as stale as Rikishi. In fact, I'm sick of him already. I don't want to see Helms on my TV again until he has a new gimmick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CheesalaIsGood 0 Report post Posted August 13, 2005 Yanno, they really DO need to make the two brands more separate. The writing teams need to compete! They need to have the room to turn up the heat and not have to fear ruffling the feathers of the opposing brand. Let Cole and Tazz talk shit about how great they think SD is. Let them talk about how exclusive (and great) the cruiser division is. Ross and Lawler can go n about all the top stars being on RAW. Etc. Etc. That kind of attitude will feed in to the storylines and feuds and elevate that much more so things like suspension of disbelief isn't such a problem.

However it isn't even presented as a feud its "just another match" with these guys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Danville_Wrestling 0 Report post Posted August 13, 2005 I'd never buy Helms as a threat to the title under his current gimmick. After all, he's HHH's favorite whipping boy when he's trying to prove a point or makes a return. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Zarock Report post Posted August 14, 2005 Wow, I guess now would the time to quickly save face and say that I was just throwing Helms out there since he's the only "reasonable" mid-card face that wasn't mentioned. But yeah, he's too scrawny to compete for the WWE Title, and his current gimmick is far too goofy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AndrewTS 0 Report post Posted August 14, 2005 "You could get Helms to be a believable IC title contender within a few months." CCC came to Raw and won it in one night. Helms wouldn't need jack to be a "believable" IC contender if CCC is believable except to make his offense look a little stiffer and get rid of that crappy "Shining Wizard." ...well, come to think of it, he doesn't still have those braces in, does he? Anything higher than IC--he's gotta bulk up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
