Tim White's "Suicide" skit

[Downhome 0]

So the next live RAW is going to be the Tim White tribute show?

[slimm44 0]

Imagine if Timmy really shot himself.

 

Why?

 

wait, what is this. Someone has to upload this.

 

Seconded

[Gary Floyd 0]

I am disappointed.

 

When I read the title for this thread, I thought the WWE was advertising a Tim White Suicide Kit.

I would totally buy that.

Here is the recap transcript of the segment from Pwinsider.com

Josh Mathews was in the Friendly Tap bar, talking with former WWE referee Tim White, who owns the place. White was drinking like crazy, and not talking, just grabbing his shoulder. Mathews talked about how White injured his shoulder refereeing Chris Jericho vs. Triple H in a Hell In A Cell match in May 2002. They showed the footage of the bump White took (which caused a legitimate injury). White said the Cell ruined his life, and that because of that injury, his wife left him, his friends left him, and he has tons of medical problems now. White, playing a total drunk, said he even got irritable bowel syndrome from the injury. White said he had nothing to live for. Josh tried to lighten the mood by saying "Have a 'White' Christmas'. Tim White pulled out a shotgun, and drunkenly staggered off. Josh, looking off camera, said "Please don't do that Mr. White" and we heard a shotgun blast. From Josh's expression, I guess we are supposed to assume that White killed himself.

 

Michael Cole and Tazz mourned for about ten seconds, then we went to the next match.

@the part of Cole and Tazz.

[Guest Leelee]

First, my dad. Then, my mom. Then, my 2nd dad. And 2nd mom. And my cat. And my brother. And Damaramu's unborn baby. And now... Tim White.

I really want to see a video of this. Looks to be in bad taste but sounds like its funny as hell

[hyperchord24 0]

We should all email the WWE and clamor for a Tim White tribute show on this Friday's Smackdown.

[Vern Gagne 0]

I am disappointed.

How does that work? If you can't get up before Tim White counts to 10, it means you're dead.

[RavishingRickRudo 0]

They should have more people off themselves after a Josh Mathews interview. He can start off so chipper and after weeks of seeing people die, Mathews can turn the gun on himself. Smackdown can stage an intervention for Mathews, have him talk to a priest alone in a room.

 

"So, Josh, your friends on Smackdown have been telling me that you've been thinking about killing yourself, why?

"Well, father, week after week I've been interviewing people and after the interview they end up killing themselves. I can't help but think I have some part to play in their deaths. I try to put on this happy face, but it's all a mask. I guess the real problem is..."

*Door closes*

*A few seconds later*

BANG!

*Door opens*

"Oh, this ain't funny no mo" - Josh Mathews, leaving the room.

I live about 10 minutes from his bar "The Friendly Tap" in Cumberland, RI. I should go there and act suprised to see him alive. Assuming he is ever really there of course...

 

That's a great idea, however...

--They are playing up the angle from last night, as if you go to The Friendly Tap (or at least if you did last night), it was closed down with a sign on the door saying "Closed due to a family emergency." (thanks to Mark Riendeau)

Wow, so in an effort to get an angle over, White has to lose business? wtf? The 'E better be paying him restitution.

LOOSE BUSINESS would be a great name for a WWE film starring Val Venis and, let's say, Shelton Benjamin. Benjamin is a street hustler named Jimmy Loose who, when in a convenience store, gets tangled up in this lovers quarrel that involves Val Venises sister. He saves her, takes her to Vals, makes sweet love to her, all of which Val sees and is impressed by. He offers to make Loose into a Porn Superstar, which Loose accepts -if only to find a reason to be near and protect Vals sister (played by, let's say, Ashley). It turns out her old boyfriend ran with the mob in Las Vegas and is about to bring trouble into Jimmys life. The simple life of a street hustler just got a lot more complicated. But like they say, there's no business like Loose Business.

Who uses a shotgun to kill a mouse/rat? That would be even more retarded than the suicide.

 

Well, a really "drunk" guy, perhaps.

Most everyone backstage, wrestlers and management, really hated the Tim White angle from Armageddon last night. At this point, most are really looking forward to getting away from the company for a week due to the holidays. Morale and spirits have been low since the passing of Eddie Guerrero.

If most backstage hate the way things are going then why not speak up? Vince can't bury everyone.... can he?

Not gonna happen anytime soon. You'll always have someone who will do whatever it takes to get in the good graces of Vince. Guys like Taker and HHH will ultimately do whatever is asked out of loyalty. They can actually voice against whatever with no penalty though. However, if Vince gets it in his head he wants to do something, they're doing it. Katie Vick is a prime example. HHH was against doing it (yeah I know, shattering smark lore) however, Vince was adamant about doing it (as well as Kevin Dunn). HHH got them to make it the BUTT of a bad joke so he didn't come off looking as bad, but HHH saw the writing on the wall with that particular angle.

This isn't bad, although it makes Val to be either a) a little gay (for standing there watching Shelton do his business AND be *impressed* by it, or b ) a total perv, for standing there and watching a stranger lay the pipe to his 'sister'.

 

We also need someone to play the bad guy / old boyfriend. I suppose you could just get some stock Italians to play the mobsters, but Carlito might work well as the crooked ex-boyfriend.

 

They should have more people off themselves after a Josh Mathews interview.

 

Since they've been doing all of these risque angles lately, I think they should just drop that "we don't do ______ angles (fill in the blank: rape, incest, murder, etc.)" lip service, because it's obviously bullshit. At the same time, debut a new wrestler, someone from OVW, and his gimmick is that he's a murderer. And every week he kills someone on TV, in a new and exciting way. Make it interesting, nothing mundane like just shooting a guy or something, work out amusing or innovative death scenarios, and have the wrestler execute them (literally and figuratively). To avoid excess heat on them, make the deaths occasionally cartoonish or even outlandish, as in, say, having the wrestler kill one guy one week, and the next week kill someone else, only that guy is actually the same guy as last week, which would lead the wrestler to say something wacky like, "Hey, didn't I kill you last week? Guess I didn't finish the job!" And then he murders them.

 

It'd be great. You could book everyone else on the roster as terrified of the guy, because hey, this motherfucker KILLS people before he goes to the ring.

 

This of course leads to the inevitable Undertaker feud, and the wrestler can in fact kill Taker every week, but because we all know Taker is an immortal zombie, he keeps coming back, which vexes our murderer to no end.

 

I tell you, this would work like gangbusters. I don't even need to be a former "Ellen" writer to come up with this shit.

So is White certainly dead then or can we expect a resurrection with Al Wilson and Paul Bearer and that other guy...The Iron Sheik.

Stock Italians? Just use Vito and Nunzio.

 

And maybe WWE should have a character like Kenny from South Park who gets killed every week and keeps coming back.

I think Vince should 'kill' The Rock at the Royal Rumble. You wouldn't actually have to see him, just shoot him off camera. Failing that, just dress Kane up.

[LaParkaYourCar 0]

Tim White could call himself Timmy and keep showing up on TV after he's been killed and Josh Matthews can say, "Oh my God you killed Timmy!" every time he's killed.

[RavishingRickRudo 0]

I was thinking Carlito as the ex-boyfriend as well.

 

I think Taker should resurrect the dead bodies and make them his unholy zombie army to get back at the murderer. And there should also be, like, a vampire so they can have vampires vs. zombies.

[MarvinisaLunatic 0]

Vince: Rock you don't want to blow yourself up with that bomb...don't do it..Doom..it was an ok movie..it really just underperformed..it didn't bomb..oh wait..

 

Vince turns around

 

Vince: HES GONNA BLOW! BLOW DAMMNIT! HES GONNA BLOW!

 

EXPLOSION

awesome!

 

 

BTW how did we turn a discusssion of a bad angle from the ppv turn into Bizzare fanatsy booking 101?

[Placebo Effect 0]

Big fucking deal.

 

Anyone who thinks this is "offensive" to Eddie Guerrero's memory seriously needs to go out and fuck something.

[Golgo 13 0]

Who in the thread has said anything like that? Get it together.

No, it's just fucking lame.

[Guest MisterBlue]

I think its gonna end uplike the Katie Vick angle. at the end it's gonna be a silly joke.

 

A waste of PPV time. The Boogey Man worm thing is also a waste of ppv money.
