Guest evenflowDDT Report post Posted May 25, 2002 OK, Excess is dead. While I'm sure most of us would love to piss on its grave, the WWE is providing a temporary distraction by giving us Velocity (won't it be ironic when they have Mark Henry in their main event?) and Confidential. While I'm actually sorta looking forward to Velocity (no really; I used to watch Metal every week until they messed with its time slot on KICU36), Confidential seems to be strictly a one-shot deal, with this Montreal screwjob pilot. So... what could WWE Confidential possibly cover besides this topic? Meat being fired for taping workers? Backstage politics? What drugs were used by the individuals who concocted the Gobbledygooker? What incriminating photos of Mean Gene said individuals found to get him to dance with the Gobbledygooker? Yeah, right. Why doesn't the WWE make this "Confidential" a one-shot deal and have the slot be a "from the vaults" only show? Because, that would MAKE SENSE! Silly me...

Guest treble charged Report post Posted May 25, 2002 I'd like it if they just had cameras follow someone around backstage for a week (house shows, too), watching them get ready for their matches, stuff like that. That would be an interesting watch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted May 25, 2002 Mene Gene said on Byte This today that the show was going to be a cross between Behind The Music and 60 Minutes. It looks like they will be having an indepth shoot interview with a different wrestler each week as well as special features like days in the lives of wrestlers and things like that. This show is going to be awesome, but they'll probably cancel it and turn it into a recap show soon:( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Slapnuts00 Report post Posted May 25, 2002 I'd like a sit down "shoot" interview with Flair going back to his days in the NWA and WCW, his original WWF run, WCW's dying days and his return. Really. It's a lot to cover so they could make it like a 2 or 3 part over 2 or 3 weeks. While he talks they can show classic clips from WCW and WWF of his matches that are relevant to what he's talking about. I want to hear THE MAN speak candidly, and if this show is for real, a sit down with Ric Flair spanning his career would be awesome. It will never happen of course.

Guest evenflowDDT Report post Posted May 25, 2002 Aren't there supposed to be "flashback" matches during this show as well? Isn't that just "from the vault" with a new, nostalgia-inducing name? If they ditched that on Excess, why are they reinstating it for Confidential? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If they ditched that on Excess, why are they reinstating it for Confidential? They came to the realization that the only people who would even consider watching totally superfluous wrestling-related programming on a Saturday night is the smart mark community. So, they're pandering to us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest razazteca Report post Posted May 25, 2002 I would like to see From the Vault matches with in depth back story of the build up of the matches, in the vein of Beyond the Mat commentary. can show matches from PPVs from the past such as: Savage vs Steamboat HBK vs Razor Ramon Brett vs Perfect Brett vs Owen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Shaved Bear Report post Posted May 25, 2002 they can always have shoot interview, talk about the steroid trials, and have guys like jericho shoot on hogan and nash that'll be fun Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted May 25, 2002 I'm not expected a total "shoot" interview, but I'll be happy if it's just an extenstion of Byte This or the post PPV wwf.com interviews. Dont play your character, just talk about your career. Everyone seems to do that except Trips on those things. And please show old matches, cause the new ones suck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest RetroRob215 Report post Posted May 25, 2002 I think they will talk to a current or ex-WWF SuperStar. He'll give a semi-shoot and they'll show some classic matches. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest buffybeast Report post Posted May 26, 2002 I will watch Confidential tonight out of curiousity. But honestly, this is frickin' WWF we are talking about. How truthful and in depth are they going to get with their "shoot" interviews? Not much, I am sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest MarvinisaLunatic Report post Posted May 26, 2002 I remember a while back on the site they had a thing saying they were looking for people to send in tapes of them imitating wrestlers promos. That guy doing Goldust was, scary. Look, its R V D and his airbrush guy! That guy rules too.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest MarvinisaLunatic Report post Posted May 26, 2002 So, what oh what does Shawn say. Yes, no, maybe so? My prediction - he avoids the question or says uh for 5 minutes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest buffybeast Report post Posted May 26, 2002 Damn, fitness modeling and wrestling sure do pay well. Her house was very nice. Quite large for just one person. Anywho, I thought this show was going to feature just Shawn. The fact that it didn't is a little disappointing. But otherwise it has been pretty interesting.
