Guest Report post Posted June 11, 2002 What if these guys quit along with Storm, Eddy, and others... got some financial backing and started their own organization? Could it work? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Sakura Report post Posted June 11, 2002 That's a lot of what if's. Why would they quit? Who would back them? Who would give them a TV deal? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted June 11, 2002 Why would they quit? To get away from the political BS. Who would back them? I don't know. There's got to be someone out there. Who would give them a TV deal? USA Network. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Sakura Report post Posted June 11, 2002 I think smart marks care about political BS a lot more than these guys do. Political BS or not, they've got stable jobs and secure, large, pay checks. Getting out of your contract to start up a new promotion from scratch is a huge risk. I highly doubt someone like Jericho is going to take that risk over being pinned in HIAC. Not really. WCW couldn't find anyone. Maybe. But no other new promotion can get a TV deal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Spaceman Spiff Report post Posted June 12, 2002 Do you really think Vince would let that many people go if he knew they would just start up a competing fed? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Edwin MacPhisto Report post Posted June 12, 2002 See, cool as that thought might be, wrestling employment is just like any other sports-business in that way, and a lot of other businesses in the fact that, even if your product isn't so great, you still make money. Plus, a lot of these guys are signed to extended contracts, and chances are Vince isn't going to let them go under any circumstances. Hell, he signed frickin' HAKU just to screw with WCW. No way he's going to let someone high-profile leave when they're under contract. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Risk Report post Posted June 12, 2002 If they want to get out of their contracts they could half-ass everything and act like pricks to management. This also works on getting a girl to break up with you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Spaceman Spiff Report post Posted June 12, 2002 If they want to get out of their contracts they could half-ass everything and act like pricks to management. This also works on getting a girl to break up with you. All Vince would have to do then is job them out, stick them on Velocity, or just not use them. There's no way he would fire them or let them quit if he had any hint of an idea that they would start up a competing fed. And after jobbing/burying/not using them, they wouldn't have any credibility anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest razazteca Report post Posted June 12, 2002 what if they went to Jarrett's NWA promotion? With the WWE exodus, the Jarrett promotion would have enough star power to get a tv deal with USA or FOX. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest El Satanico Report post Posted June 12, 2002 As i posted in the Austin leaving topic. What if Austin, Flair and Heyman are behind the scenes plotting to take down Vince from inside. They could convince the younger guys who are either current stars or will be future stars that Vince won't give them a fair chance to become true stars. Then they could start a new fed, but theyh would likely just join Jarret's fed. This is all unlikely seeing as how it's too good to be true. However i'll still be holding out hope.
