oAo Monday Night Raw thread- 4/16/07

Recommended Posts

I wonder if the last name they gave Santino is a tribute to Gorilla Monsoon.

 

 

A quick Wiki check on Gorilla brought me two awesome tidbits that I never knew.

 

1) Monsoon's original gimmick involved a past of wrestling bears and drinking blood, among other things.

2) His liscense plate read "KAYFABE"

 

 

I find both awesome, for reasons I can't explain.

Hey, when did Edge get those new tattoos?

 

After hanging with Orton for awhile he decided he didn't look bland enough to properly put over the tag team.

 

Also, like HHH with Jericho, Edge sees Punk as a threat and is stockpiling tattoos to hurt Punk's "different look" appeal.

But was M.A.S.K. as huge as GI Joe or He-Man? A Decepticons symbol would rule though.

If I ever became a wrestler, I'd get the Autobots logo on one shoulder, and the Decepticon one on the other.

To quote from the song "The Ballad of Optimus Prime"

 

"NOOOO! NOT LEADER 1! TURBO, CY-KILL, THAT SCOOTER THING! TONKA COULDN'T SELL ANYTHING EXCEPT THEIR DUMP TRUCKS AND THEY HAD TO MAKE THESE KNOCK OFFS! UNICRON KILL ME NOW! GOBOTRON MY ASS!"

 

...does that answer your question?

That is harsh. Me personally I would go with a full body Super Dimensional Fortress Macross tatoo with the big guns on my arms then I would do the Batista dance every chance I got.

What a horrible Raw. Not only did they manage to completely strip the IC title of any value it once had, they also managed to completely bury all three of Cena's challengers for Backlash.

 

Just an utterly disgusting show on all fronts, especially the 30 minute long first segment.

 

Total ass.

These overseas Raws are always really dull after WM. It's like they know the building will sell out anyway in Europe or Japan so they just book some crap. Add to it workers that are jetlagged and tired from these long trips and you get lethargic shows such as tonight.

 

I have to admit I'm intrigued with how they brought up Boris Alexiev/Santino Marella. They have to do some sort of phony backstory on him now though. As in some sort of amateur credentials in Europe, maybe shootfighting too. More than just being some fan who came in and got lucky.

Just say he was a pro kick boxer in Europe its believable since nobody in US of A actually cares about kick boxing to complain about it being a fake back story.

Cena got his ass kicked all match, and only won because Edge speared Orton, HBK superkicked Edge, and then caught HBK w/ a surprise flash FU. How did that bury those 3?

You know...Little Guido would have been great choice to come out and take the IC title off Umaga. Same scenrio, just except for the fan gimmick, use Guido.
