Downhome 0 Report post Posted May 6, 2006 From PWInsider: Francisco Cartagena sent this one. ... NWA Wisconsin midget worker "Shortstack" has been signed to a WWE deal and he's scheduled to be Finlay's leprechaun. I looked into it and was told that this is indeed the plan. Jeez, do they even pay attention to what Finlay does in WWE? http://www.nwawisconsin.com/videos.html What the fuck? Discuss. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Human Highlight Reel Report post Posted May 6, 2006 Already in Comments That Don't Warrant a Thread, but yeah, this is the stupidest thing ever. Finlay is portrayed as a legitamite asskicker, not a cartoon character. This will seriously damage Finlay, and hurt his appeal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Downhome 0 Report post Posted May 6, 2006 I found this by doing a search for the guy: - Aaron sent this: Hey, just wanted to let you guys know that the midget from the Candace, Goldust, and Snitsky bit on WWE Unlimited was actually a local Wisconsin wrestler named Shortstack, the worlds sexiest midget. He wrestles in multiple promotions including NWA Wisconsin, and I believe in DeFalco's Crew City Wrestling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2GOLD 0 Report post Posted May 6, 2006 He should walk around carrying a flashlight saying, "I'M THE LEPRECHAUN!" That way the WWE can keep with their trend of being hip and current while watching E! and Comedy Central movies for ideas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

razazteca 0 Report post Posted May 7, 2006 Finely and shorty should win the tag team belts only for one of them to lose position of one of the belts which would result in Finely asking Shortstack "Where's Me Gold!?" before every commercial break. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EdwardKnoxII 0 Report post Posted May 7, 2006 They should make him an evil Lucky the Leprechaun from Lucky Charms. He'll talk about how his Lucky Charms are magically delicious but, when he gives them to kids we find out that Finaly laced them with poison and killed the kids. And he brings a pot of gold with him to the ring and uses it to win matches. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JustJoe2k5 0 Report post Posted May 7, 2006 It isn't the first idiotic stunt the WWE had pulled and it won't be the last, so there isn't much sense in complaining about it.
