haws bah gawd 0 Report post Posted March 23, 2006 I remember reading an interview with Test back in 2000 or so. He brought up using the flying elbow as a finisher. Although he had been given props by the boys in the back for a man of his size doing the move, it was killing his lower back to do it. He went on to say that 3 years later, if he was still an active wrestler, he would not be using the flying elbow. IMO, the move looked the best when he won the Hardcore Championship from Bossman. He took the nightstick from Bossman, held it so that the long part of the stick went down his forearm, and did the flying elbow on him for the win. Made it look like he was stabbing Bossman in the chest with the stick. Good visual. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dobbs 3K 0 Report post Posted March 23, 2006 Personally I've never minded Test that much, since he's not as useless as most guys his height. Heck, I remember being at a RAW taping in the spring of '98 and seeing this tall guy in purple trunks working a dark match, and thinking he looked like he had a lot of potential. He was billed as "Andrew Martin." I am wondering what they will do with Test, now that he's coming back officially. At first glance, it seems like Smackdown could maybe use him more since they need some star power (and like it or not, Test is someone most fans will recognize). However, I'd think he could get lost in the shuffle with all the other big guys like Lashley and Mark Henry. If he goes to RAW, what do they do with him? I'd love to see him come in as a face who tries to be a thorn in Triple H's side, playing off their past history. Of course, that would probably be too interesting, so we'll probably see him come in as a generic big man heel for Vince to use against HBK or whoever else is pissing him off that week. He'll probably be used like Kane was a couple years ago. "CENA, you're pissing me off, with your lack of respect for authority! So tonight, you're going to face...TEST!...in a NO HOLDS BARRED MATCH!!!" (crowd goes mild) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cheech Tremendous 0 Report post Posted March 23, 2006 I hate Test. I think he's a worthless sack of shit. That being said, he still should have got the belt at Survivor Series 99 like it was originally planned. He totally got screwed over by HHH that year.
