cabbageboy Posted July 4, 2007 Report Posted July 4, 2007 The Wargames on the Horsemen DVD is one from 1988 with Luger, Dr. Death and Co. against them. It's not really as good of a match.
USC Wuz Robbed! Posted July 5, 2007 Report Posted July 5, 2007 Lashley * (he gets an * because I'm not sure what he would be like as a heel) There is no way in hell Lashley could be a good heel. He's too bulky to ever portray a cowardly heel, and he doesn't have the angry intensity to work as a monster heel. And either way he doesn't have the mic skills, which are much more important for heels. Maybe a heelish version of the Cowardly Lion?
Perfxion Posted July 5, 2007 Report Posted July 5, 2007 There are other styles of heels. For example, Eddie always played the Rudo-dick heel. And Lashley could play the 21st century Sarge heel. But have him just destory people in the way Lesnar did when he first started on RAW back in 02. Matches have finishes of Refs stopping the matches due to the other guy in no condition to continue. In about 3 months he has more than enough heat for Cena's 2 month title feud special. With the last man standing match added to make it 4 of those matches used this year alone.

Jingus Posted July 5, 2007 Report Posted July 5, 2007 Well, aside from Funaki, he is the only complete jobber who actually pulled some votes.
Matt Young Posted July 5, 2007 Report Posted July 5, 2007 Well, aside from Funaki, he is the only complete jobber who actually pulled some votes. Daivari says hello.
Jingus Posted July 5, 2007 Report Posted July 5, 2007 He was a manager til recently, people still see him that way, wait til he gets some more singles losses under his belt til you reclassify him as such.

Posted July 5, 2007 Report Posted July 5, 2007 He was a manager til recently, people still see him that way, wait til he gets some more singles losses under his belt til you reclassify him as such. No I saw him as a failed manager (by having him yanked off managing Khali too soon) and a jobber.

Someone should ask him that. But I'm guessing his answer would be "do what I say, not what I do"

DrVenkman PhD Posted July 5, 2007 Report Posted July 5, 2007 WO.com update: "If John Cena holds the WWE title through 9/18, and before the Benoit thing went down, the plans were not for that to happen, he would be the first world heavyweight champion in company history to go 365 days since Randy Savage in the 80s" On that topic, I believe 11 days ago he passed his first title reign's length.

How does Benoit's death have any effect on Cena's title reign?
DrVenkman PhD Posted July 5, 2007 Report Posted July 5, 2007 In the long run it might have none, but there must be a lot of re-writing of various ideas (mainly whatever was going to be going on with McMahon 'dead') going on which could end up effecting the reign. Maybe where they once thought Orton winning the title at SummerSlam was a great idea, they now have a major plan that involves Cena keeping the belt. Really though, I think he just meant "who knows what the hell is going on right now".
k thx Posted July 5, 2007 Report Posted July 5, 2007 I was gonna do a thread on this, but it really doesn't warrant it. What are peoples views on Johnny Nitro? In my eyes, he's got a great look and great moveset, but the guy just doesn't convince me as a wrestler. His transition between moves id diabolical. Hopefully a long feud with Punk may help, but he just doesn't seem to be getting anywhere with it over the last year and is getting more and more exposed.
Obi Chris Kenobi Posted July 5, 2007 Report Posted July 5, 2007 I like him and can see good potential, I'm sure alot of it has to do with confidence. Over the last year, he's been pushed then depushed for one reason or another, usually not directly his fault (Melina/Mercury). I'm enjoying his ECW run, he seems to have taken it as a sign to step up and prove himself, if he can move away from being a Spot Monkey of sorts, maybes take note of Shawn Michaels early work, he could be a Main Eventer for years to come.

Wait, didn't Nash go over a year?
DrVenkman PhD Posted July 5, 2007 Report Posted July 5, 2007 7 days short of a year. Hogan's reign when he beat Savage was closer, lasting 364 days.
Hunter's Torn Quad Posted July 5, 2007 Author Report Posted July 5, 2007 On the latest Figure Four Daily, Lucha expert Steve Sims said that Rey's involvement in the upcoming WWE run in Mexico is being used to test out how he's knees can hold up to being in the ring, so WWE know how much Rey can do and can then plan an appropriate push.
