Guest wildpegasus Posted June 11, 2006 Report Posted June 11, 2006 This deserves its own topic but oh well. The WWE camera work needs to change. I was watching Macho vs Bret from WCW the other day and found myself really enjoying it. Not because it was the best match ever but because Macho delivered 3 snap like punches to Bret Hart's face who was standing alongside the turnbuckles. It was an awesome, superb angle that brought you right into the match. One of my fav camera shots ever. Than about a minute later thinking about all the different reasons I enjoyed that I realised that in the WWE I have never seen camera work like that in ages if ever. In today's WWE the camera would do every trick in the book to make you not actually see the contact as protection for weak workers. They even do it all the time even when they don't have to. On taped shows to boot.
strummer Posted June 11, 2006 Report Posted June 11, 2006 From Flair's wedding. OMG Evolution reunion!!

On taped shows to boot. I agree with you, the WWE camera work needs to change. The random crowd shot during a match is really pointless and you may not see the turning point in the match or a good move because of it. Plus putting the camera on a valet or on the annouce table while a match is going on is basically the same result as putting the camera on a person in the crowd. Thats what I liked about ECW and WCW camera work, they rarely put a camera on something else other than a match unless it was something really important to a storyline.

Scroby Posted June 11, 2006 Report Posted June 11, 2006 From Flair's wedding. OMG Evolution reunion!! ?
USC Wuz Robbed! Posted June 11, 2006 Report Posted June 11, 2006 Flair's wife looks a lot younger than Flair himself.
Downhome Posted June 11, 2006 Report Posted June 11, 2006 Wow, is that Reid next to David? I haven't seen him since he was in WCW those few times.
Hawk 34 Posted June 11, 2006 Report Posted June 11, 2006 Whoo! for Flair. Space Mountain is still ridin'
strummer Posted June 11, 2006 Report Posted June 11, 2006 ? Flair, HHH and Batista all in a row. They were in Evolution.
Scroby Posted June 11, 2006 Report Posted June 11, 2006 ? Flair, HHH and Batista all in a row. They were in Evolution. Oh...I can't see the picture.
haVoc Posted June 11, 2006 Report Posted June 11, 2006 Flair's a fucking retard for getting remarried. I've come to the conclusion that wrestlers only get married so they can get their wives health insurance.
2GOLD Posted June 11, 2006 Report Posted June 11, 2006 I love how David Flair is making the Lord Steven Regal face. All he needs to do is start shooing people away and lock one of the bridemaids in the Regal Stretch.
Downhome Posted June 11, 2006 Report Posted June 11, 2006 Here are a bunch of other pictures from the wedding: http://community.webshots.com/album/550899466iEghGF/0 Check out the pictures of Reid. He looks like he's going to end up as crazy Ric.
MillenniumMan831 Posted June 11, 2006 Report Posted June 11, 2006 I love how David Flair is making the Lord Steven Regal face. All he needs to do is start shooing people away and lock one of the bridemaids in the Regal Stretch. He's probably a little put out that he and Reid have been pushed aside in favor of Evolution . . . Wooooooooo, EVOLUTION!!! *Throws watch* I SAID EVOLUTION!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! ALL NIGHT LONG!!!!
Vampiro69 Posted June 11, 2006 Report Posted June 11, 2006 Those were some fine ladies in the photo album at the wedding.
Lord of The Curry Posted June 11, 2006 Report Posted June 11, 2006 David Flair looks like Matthew Perry from that angle.
Hawk 34 Posted June 11, 2006 Report Posted June 11, 2006 I expect Batista, HHH and TBS to be at Flair's wedding but I was surprised to see Gregory Helms there.
Spaceman Spiff Posted June 11, 2006 Report Posted June 11, 2006 Helms is a big Flair fan, so I imagine they became friends during his tenure on Raw.
goldengreek Posted June 11, 2006 Report Posted June 11, 2006 I expect Batista, HHH and TBS to be at Flair's wedding but I was surprised to see Gregory Helms there. They are both from North Carolina???
Bruce Blank Posted June 11, 2006 Report Posted June 11, 2006 Flair's wife looks a lot younger than Flair himself.So does Mae Young though.
Guest NYankees Posted June 12, 2006 Report Posted June 12, 2006 HHH is in the new Manlaws commercials for Miller Lite beer.
dubq Posted June 12, 2006 Report Posted June 12, 2006 In the theatre today they ran a video ad for Vengeance claming that DX would be reuniting at the event- complete with DX music and recent shots of HHH & HBK doing crotch-chops .
UseTheSledgehammerUh Posted June 12, 2006 Report Posted June 12, 2006 In that Flair wedding photo, I totally thought David Flair was Pete Gas of the MSP until I read the "WOW is that Reid next to David?" post.

Definately an annoyance.
dh86 Posted June 12, 2006 Report Posted June 12, 2006 I get the sickened feeling that Cena-Orton is going to main event a major ppv soon
Guest Hotbutter Spoontoaster Posted June 12, 2006 Report Posted June 12, 2006 I get the sickened feeling that Cena-Orton is going to main event a major ppv soon It was suppose to be Cena/Triple H at SummerSlam this year, but if DX really takes off, I can see Cena/Orton main eventing the PPV...with Orton winning the title.
benn Posted June 12, 2006 Report Posted June 12, 2006 I get the sickened feeling that Cena-Orton is going to main event a major ppv soon Cena/Orton at WM23. I wouldn't want to be Edge after he inevitably jobs to Cena at Vengeance and the depush starts.
haVoc Posted June 12, 2006 Report Posted June 12, 2006 Just wondering if anyone here is going to buy the book Rise and Fall of ECW. Think there will be anything new that the DVD didn't talk about? I checked WWE shop zone and they had no package deals with the DVD yet. Just an ECW t-shirt. I borrowed the DVD from my brother so I've never owned it myself.
humanoid92 Posted June 12, 2006 Report Posted June 12, 2006 Random question for anyone that knows or wants to speculate: Before ONS 2 last night, when was the last time Jerry Lawler and Terry Funk wrestled on the same card?
