MikeJordan23 Posted February 22, 2006 Report Posted February 22, 2006 Wicks, Tolland released February 22, 2006 WWE has come to terms on the release of both Chad Wicks and John Tolland who wrestled as “The Dicks.” We wish them the best in all future endeavors. www.wwe.com
BorneAgain Posted February 22, 2006 Report Posted February 22, 2006 http://www.wwe.com/inside/news/releaseterms Eh, not much to say. With their gimmick, there was little chance they were staying around.
justcoz Posted February 22, 2006 Report Posted February 22, 2006 We need to start a "Save Our Dicks" petitition. Seriously though, why cut tag teams when there are people like Viscera, Bob Holly, Scotty too Hotty, Snitsky, Tyson Tomko, etc. hanging around?
Dangerous A Posted February 22, 2006 Report Posted February 22, 2006 We need to start a "Save Our Dicks" petitition. Seriously though, why cut tag teams when there are people like Viscera, Bob Holly, Scotty too Hotty, Snitsky, Tyson Tomko, etc. hanging around? Because all the men you mentioned are Big except Scotty, who is still over for some reason. Nice to see WWE using OVW guys to it's fullest potential.
razazteca Posted February 22, 2006 Report Posted February 22, 2006 Why were Chad Wicks and John Tolland hired in the 1st place?
Just John Posted February 22, 2006 Report Posted February 22, 2006 This thread title is better than the other one.
Hawk 34 Posted February 22, 2006 Report Posted February 22, 2006 So I guess this is going to be the start of an early spring cleaning? Also, I'm tired of people always thinking Holly, Richards, Venis and Scotty are going to get cut.
The Metal Maniac Posted February 22, 2006 Report Posted February 22, 2006 Seriously. Hardcore Holly is never getting fired.
Jericho2000Mark Posted February 22, 2006 Report Posted February 22, 2006 Agreed, if this gets more posts, maybe they'll lock the other one instead.
BorneAgain Posted February 22, 2006 Report Posted February 22, 2006 It was the fastest thing that came to my mind when I heard about their release. That and "Dicks Have Been Cut"
Slayer Posted February 22, 2006 Report Posted February 22, 2006 The real joke is that they were brought up in the first place
justcoz Posted February 22, 2006 Report Posted February 22, 2006 Why bother having OVW if you are going to change everyone's gimmicks once they get called up and then fire them for not being able to get ridiculous gimmicks over? I'm seriously figuring that Nick Dinsmore, Rob Conway and Doug Basham are next.
Guest Dr Stupid Posted February 22, 2006 Report Posted February 22, 2006 This thread is much more aptly named for endless dick jokes
Hawk 34 Posted February 22, 2006 Report Posted February 22, 2006 I don't know why they don't just slap the Bashams back together, it's not like anyone will notice they were even seperated.
Guest Dr Stupid Posted February 22, 2006 Report Posted February 22, 2006 What WWE really should have done, is stick the Dicks with some heel manager, or a heel wrestler (that's good on the stick, so to speak) and started up the Dick Foundation. We could have had endless "My Dicks are gonna kill you tonight on Smackdown" or "The Dick Foundation just got drafted to Raw. That's right, the Dicks are gonna get Raw all over your ass baby!" or "The Dick Foundation is on Heat tonight" Instead of that, we got Bobby Lashley squashing Dicks each week.
Zack Malibu Posted February 22, 2006 Report Posted February 22, 2006 Why were Chad Wicks and John Tolland hired in the 1st place? Because they actually have (had) a lot to offer, had you seen them in OVW. Just like the Heartbreakers/Throbs, another act killed by creative and left to die, solely for sophmoric jokes made at their expense.
DrVenkman PhD Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 The Dicks were so big their release warranted two threads!
Open the Muggy Gate Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 The WWE is officially Dickless!
Gary Floyd Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 The Discks were released. They were too stiff.
Guest JericholicEdgeHead Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 You know unless you are either related to Triple H , know someone in WWE, or your father was a former WWF star...there is really no need for anyone to try and become a wrestler anymore as a career. The chances of getting to the WWE roster and not given some shitty comedy gimmick that is doomed to fail is pretty slim. I feel sorry for any of the OVW guys right now....if I was them I would seriously consider a different line of work. Because unless they are over 6 foot tall and weigh over 275 pds, odds are they will end up like Tolland & Wicks.

So they were brought up for the sole purpose to mock Jim Cornette?
benoit4hor Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 The Hearthrobs vs The Dicks would've drawn huge money.
DrVenkman PhD Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 It's true, your honour. This company has no Dicks.
Cheech Tremendous Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 It's true, your honour. This company has no Dicks. I don't know about that. HHH and Shawn Michaels are still on the roster.
Guest Dam(o)nYankees Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 I don't know why they don't just slap the Bashams back together, it's not like anyone will notice they were even seperated. You...want to see that team back together?

You...want to see that team back together? First of all, they are actually good workers. They aren't doing anything with them as it is, so either can them or re-unite them.

You...want to see that team back together? First of all, they are actually good workers. Then push them individually. There's no reason to subject the public to that team for a third time. They just don't work well together. Hell, they were tag team champions for almost four months at one point, and then two months later (145 days total), and I honestly couldn't name one double team move that they used more than once. They were a tag team that didn't have a finisher, didn't have any trademark spots, and to be honest, looked like they were out there still wrestling in front of 500 people or whatever in OVW, because they never made any attempt to so much as acknowledge the crowd. No matter what the crowd was doing, they wrestled the same basic, technically sound but boring as all shit tag match, with no spots to get the crowd into it. That's not a tag team. That's two men who sort of look alike walking out together and having a match. Maybe they're both good workers. Hell, maybe they can both be good tag workers. But they were miserable together.
