Bruce Blank 0 Report post Posted October 26, 2006 In addition to being interested in Claudio Castignoli and Monty Brown, WWE have also shown interest in Chris Hero and are said to be very open to signing all three. F4WOnline I'm pretty Meh about Monty Brown but Hero and Castignoli? now that could be interesting Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hawk 34 0 Report post Posted October 26, 2006 Claudio would be a good fit for WWE as he has a good look, size and is a solid promo. Hero, would have to be broken down and rebuilt like Punk. I assume the garbage bag pajamas wouldn't stick around either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

UseTheSledgehammerUh 0 Report post Posted October 26, 2006 "Legacy Reborn" is a very unintelligent title for a column and makes no sense, IMO. Do you think they'll alter Harry Smith's name? It's very plain sounding. A lot moreso than "John Cena". As long as we don't get: Jim Ross: "Ladies and gentlemen, it is my honor to welcome...The New British Bulldog!"

Thanks for the Fish 0 Report post Posted October 26, 2006 I doubt they'd change Harry Smith's name, however they'll definitely give him a nickname Harry "The Bulldog" Smith or something to that effect. ROH Claudio Castagnoli was said to have impressed during his Deep South tryout, also it is said that wwe might be interested in Chris Hero. Hero wold definitely have to get into they gym though. It looks like wwe is after talkers/personalities - Colt Cabana worked Heat again this week, jobbing to Hacksaw Jim Duggan. Cabana, Hero and CC have the height the wwe looks for, and are solid enough on the mic - with Hero actually being really good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hawkius Maximus 0 Report post Posted October 27, 2006 Claudio & Hero could both be excellent pickups for WWE. I don't get why TNA hasn't latched onto them either. Hero is a great speaker, both are good in the ring, and they have natural tag team chemistry. Seems like a natural fit to me. Then again, neither TNA or WWE seem to do what's logical or "natural" in the business, so who knows. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hawk 34 0 Report post Posted October 27, 2006 I don't see how Hero could possibly have a match that wasn't a 60 minute masterbation session. I guess the countless matches where he has wrestled in 20 minute periods with great success must have passed you. He is a tremendous tag team worker with Claudio, and is pretty much the best regular tag team in the field today and that's why, I would imagine WWE has an interest in Hero after years of being a "name" on the independent scene but they like Claudio suddenly and they know Hero almost has to be a part of the package. I think they see Hero as a talker with Claudio being the worker of that group. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for the Fish 0 Report post Posted October 27, 2006 If Claudio Castagnoli and Chris Hero are both signed, I really doubt they'd be brought in as a tag team. I think Claudio would jump to one of the main rosters rather quickly - probably to team with Sylvain or something. Hero would be in the developmentals for awhile as his body needs a lot of work.

BorneAgain 0 Report post Posted October 27, 2006 Given his roots and where he's actually from I can see "Canadian Bulldog" Harry Smith being used.

I can't believe how ridiculous they're being with the "sports entertainment" crap. God forbid they say he came from a wrestling family instead of calling the Harts a sports entertainment family. That's insulting to his family. They even edited what he said... He continued, “[because of the past], it’s very possible that people in my family might have thought this is not the right path for me, but it's never been said to me. Even so, that’s fine, that’s their opinion but this is what I want to do. A couple of my uncles said maybe you should take another thought at getting into [sports-entertainment]. But, I knew what I wanted to do and that’s why I’m here.” Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for the Fish 0 Report post Posted October 27, 2006 I think Joy Giovanni is going about things the wrong way if she wants to get back in the wwe. If she was already contacted by Johnny Ace and Nova about coming back in, she should have kept her mouth shut and waited by the phone. Tell her to go to a house show, preferably ringside seats, with signs asking to be re-hired and try to get HBK's and HHH's attention - I hear that also works really well.
