justcoz 0 Report post Posted November 12, 2005 Terrell Owens is out of work. There is a hype machine. If you were Vince McMahon, would you consider offering money to wrestle... at at least... a one shot appearance on RAW to bring people over from MNF? Wrestling may be a long shot because I'm sure he wouldn't want to risk injury but if you put him in there with someone like Kurt Angle, someone that could train him and walk him through the match, would it be something you'd order on PPV or something that could spark a mainstream interest in the product? Is Angle the right guy to match him up with or would you go the Cena route? Would this be something NBC would want for a Saturday Night Main Event? Discuss...

David Blazenwing 0 Report post Posted November 12, 2005 Hey, WWF pulled it off with LT & Bam Bam... I could see TO for a one night shot, not a PPV though, certainly not a WM main event... a SNME sounds good actually, maybe not even as the main event there, but it would certainly build some interest. The state wrestling is in now, however, TO would be blackballed for doing anything WWE by any and all sportscasters and etc. Not that they matter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Amazing. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well, when every other PPV is headlined by guys who aren't wrestlers, then yes, WCW deservingly became a punchline but for every Kevin Green and Jay Leno there is a Mike Tyson and Mr. T who actually did generate interest in the product. LT worked on some level as well. Besides, WWE is pretty much a mirror of bad WCW these days anyway. So what could it hurt to have Terrell Owens show up for a one shot deal where he has a face off with someone like Angle or Cena that gets mainstream press coverage? Even if he doesn't actually wrestle a match. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Put Austin or Cena in there. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I think the media would be intrigued by an Olympic gold medalist and a spoiled arrogant NFL player having a face off. It would probably serve Cena better in the long run however. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If it was someone other than TO, there'd be a slight chance that it would be a positive thing ... but the mainstream sports media is having a field day ripping on him as it is. Why would his involvement with the WWE be a positive for either party? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DrVenkman PhD 0 Report post Posted November 12, 2005 What does Toronto vs Kurt Angle mean? Angle vs. Edge? That's been done. Christian and Test are gone. Kurt Angle vs The Leafs? Interesting, but none are wrestlers so who cares. I'll buy a PPV for a wrestler wrestling a wrestler, thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

yankovic fan 0 Report post Posted November 14, 2005 Also should be noted that last year or the year before Brian Urlacher with the Bears (pretty sure it was him) did a gig (one time) with an indy fed, and the team organization had a fit. Granted this is different circumstances if it would happen. Not like T.O. hurting himself in the ring would take away from his field performance as he's NOT GOING ON THE FIELD.
