Hawk 34 Posted February 20, 2006 Report Posted February 20, 2006 Don't get me wrong, I like Gibson and am happy they protected him by not putting him in (or forgetting, lol) this match. But building him up as a loveable Benoit, Jr? C'mon. He lacks the look and the charisma. And what Benoit lacked in charisma he delivered with in-ring to win over the fans. Who said anything about lovable? He is Benoit Jr because he is very similar in style and delivery as Benoit. I wasn't saying build him as "the next Benoit", I was saying he is the modern Benoit. Junior wrestler who can do alot of great stuff in all styles from High-flying, mat-based and brawling. Gibson CAN deliver inside that ring, it's a matter of WWE not letting him do that. Who said anything about building the company around him? Of course, you can't build around Gibson. They couldn't do that with Benoit. They also can't build around Orton, either but that hasn't stopped them. Bottom line, Gibson can work, can get over with the crowd and can carry the cruiserweight ranks if they let him and the others do what they can. Gibson was praised before his ROH stuff, watch his HVW and WCW work. It's not an ROH thing, he got rave reviews in other promotions as well.
UseTheSledgehammerUh Posted February 20, 2006 Report Posted February 20, 2006 I was willing to give Lashley a chance. But his looking lost and generally confused when facing off with two ring veterans like JBL and Finlay really bothered me. He sold well enough and made his comebacks, and the fans responded positively, but I'd rather this PPV time be given to more entertaining characters that can wrestle. Plus, JBL is a great character. Go JBL. (...remembers JBL being squashed in a minute to the Boogeyman on a Big 4 PPV...nevermind)
Guest Dam(o)nYankees Posted February 20, 2006 Report Posted February 20, 2006 Am I the only one who has never built a tree out of legos?
UseTheSledgehammerUh Posted February 20, 2006 Report Posted February 20, 2006 Well, I certainly hope I get to see Noble deliver. Even if I DIDN'T like him, which I do, anything would be a breath of fresh air from watching Scotty do the Worm, Funaki's horrible attempts at looking credible, the Nunzio "clap your hands" dropkick, and Kid Kash's futile attempts to be a good, cocky heel.
Guest Dam(o)nYankees Posted February 20, 2006 Report Posted February 20, 2006 WTF is Jillian wearing?
Carnival Posted February 20, 2006 Report Posted February 20, 2006 People actually pop for lashley? it's just strange to me...
Carnival Posted February 20, 2006 Report Posted February 20, 2006 How did JBL get busted open? Finley is HERE
Hawk 34 Posted February 20, 2006 Report Posted February 20, 2006 People actually pop for lashley? it's just strange to me... Like UTSU incorrectly said about Gibson and ROHbots, TRAINED SEALS. man, Rudo might get his wish. It looks like they are building to something with Finaly/JBL already, just get Regal and Benoit/Burchill involved.
UseTheSledgehammerUh Posted February 20, 2006 Report Posted February 20, 2006 Has anyone noticed Jillian's gotten uglier since the mole got bitten off? She's changed her hair and eyeshadow or something. I mean, besides the nice legs and chest I never found her face to be beautiful or anything, but it was decent.
Guest Dam(o)nYankees Posted February 20, 2006 Report Posted February 20, 2006 Fun match, fun finish, right guy went over.
Black Lushus Posted February 20, 2006 Report Posted February 20, 2006 they popped for Ahmed Johnson, Goldberg and Brock Lesnar, why not this guy? I'm not saying he's in their league, but he could be someday.
ChrisMWaters Posted February 20, 2006 Report Posted February 20, 2006 So WrestleMania...Lashley vs. Finlay?
UseTheSledgehammerUh Posted February 20, 2006 Report Posted February 20, 2006 Instead of 15 minutes of Benoit/Finlay at Mania we'll get 8 minutes of Finlay/Lashley, so Fit can make Lashley look good on the big stage. Sigh.
Carnival Posted February 20, 2006 Report Posted February 20, 2006 they popped for Ahmed Johnson, Goldberg and Brock Lesnar, why not this guy? I'm not saying he's in their league, but he could be someday. good point, gaywad. how the fuck did JBL get busted open that bad. Lashley headbutt him on accident?
UseTheSledgehammerUh Posted February 20, 2006 Report Posted February 20, 2006 JBL wins and I am happy.
Nightfall Posted February 20, 2006 Report Posted February 20, 2006 Batista is here...with *REALLY* short hair.
ChrisMWaters Posted February 20, 2006 Report Posted February 20, 2006 Batista a special guest. And it looks like his hair was cut. ...and for those that watched IMpact last night, Batista's suit is in the same style of Christopher Daniel's entrance robe (black with pinstripes).
Guest Dam(o)nYankees Posted February 20, 2006 Report Posted February 20, 2006 Okay, Dave, get to the point.
UseTheSledgehammerUh Posted February 20, 2006 Report Posted February 20, 2006 How will he work the name "Paul" or Triple H into this promo...
Dips Posted February 20, 2006 Report Posted February 20, 2006 What did the guy in the crowd shout which caused Batista to start laughing?
Hawk 34 Posted February 20, 2006 Report Posted February 20, 2006 Anyone want to elaborate on what Batista is saying?
Guest Dam(o)nYankees Posted February 20, 2006 Report Posted February 20, 2006 LISTEN TO THAT HEAT FOR ORTON!!!!!!!!!!!!
Carnival Posted February 20, 2006 Report Posted February 20, 2006 JBL gives josh mathews an open hand shot to the chest. Mathews oversells it.
Repo Man jr Posted February 20, 2006 Report Posted February 20, 2006 Anyone want to elaborate on what Batista is saying? He's comin back and he's gonna get his title
