Guest claydude14 Posted June 21, 2002 Report Posted June 21, 2002 I am worried about Funaki. First, Taka does not resign. Then split happens and he and Austin are on different brands (if i recall they are/were very close backstage). Now, Austin is gone. I fear for Funaki. Hopefully Russo will give him some depth... and the cruiserweight title
Guest Anglesault Posted June 21, 2002 Report Posted June 21, 2002 Is that why there were so many Austin/Funaki segments? And by "so many" I do mean "three" but that is a lot for Austin/Funaki

I'll give Funaki this, though---his work on Velocity has been quite good---and this is from a guy who doesn't like his work. -=Mike
Guest SuperTonyJaymz Posted June 21, 2002 Report Posted June 21, 2002 Actually Funaki can speak english fluently. The WWE just dont let him.
Guest BoboBrazil Posted June 21, 2002 Report Posted June 21, 2002 When is his contract up? I don't think the WWF will resign him to another deal. He will probably go back to Japan.
Guest One Bad Apple Posted June 21, 2002 Report Posted June 21, 2002 Is that why there were so many Austin/Funaki segments? And by "so many" I do mean "three" but that is a lot for Austin/Funaki There were three Austin/Funaki segments? Wow! Anyways, as for Funaki, I pray for him to get a push. He's small, yeah ... but he's been with them for a while, and at least deserves a chance. He's one of my favorites, and with some work, they can make him one of everyone's favorites! I remember his teaming with Crash Holly. That could have went some where, but ... too bad. And I almost screamed when him and Tajiri beat Kidman and Helms. And one time, his pee-wer was kinda winking at us from behind his Funaki tights, and I laughed! Then I felt bad, because not only did Funaki get brainbustered by Chavo, but he also must have felt embarrassed when he watched the tape. Sorry, Funaki. We're still cool, right?
Guest RavishingRickRudo Posted June 21, 2002 Report Posted June 21, 2002 The Funacrash! BEST TEAM OF 2002~! Seriously, they NEED TO start a whomp-ass feud between Saturn and Funaki, they had the best series of matches of 2002.

Don't give him any ideas or else Funaki *will* be getting more tv time. As the wrestler who comes to the ring in a trench coat and exposes himself to the camera. Didn't Goldust do that gimmick for a while back in 98 or so. I think he was feuding with Jarrett and him and Debra were dualing flashers.
Guest RavishingRickRudo Posted June 21, 2002 Report Posted June 21, 2002 Don't you know that if you work hard in the Wwf you ALWAYS make it to the top..the cream rises you know... Oh wait, cream is white.. Sorry Whole Funakin Sho, you be fucked.
Guest LesnarLunatic Posted June 21, 2002 Report Posted June 21, 2002 I think Goldust flashed Vader once.. during the says when Goldust had a ballgag in his mouth and Luna Vachon.
Guest GenerationNever Posted June 21, 2002 Report Posted June 21, 2002 Funaki would be better off in Japan. It's better than being a low-card jobber.
Guest saturnmark4life Posted June 21, 2002 Report Posted June 21, 2002 Seriously, they NEED TO start a whomp-ass feud between Saturn and Funaki, they had the best series of matches of 2002. B) TESTIFY.
Guest The Vanilla Midget Posted June 21, 2002 Report Posted June 21, 2002 just admit it, funaki has no future in the wwe and we all know it. vince has "southern roots" and it shows in his refusal to push foreigners as anything other than "evil foreigners" and get a serious push.
Guest Prince Paul Posted June 21, 2002 Report Posted June 21, 2002 Yeah without TAKA, Funaki will be gone soon too. Unless they get serious about the LHW division like JR always says they will. *chuckle*
Guest The Vanilla Midget Posted June 21, 2002 Report Posted June 21, 2002 even if they do, funaki is fucked. he doesnt have a wwe look and will be forever stereotyped for the evil gimmick.
Guest Prince Paul Posted June 21, 2002 Report Posted June 21, 2002 even if they do, funaki is fucked. he doesnt have a wwe look and will be forever stereotyped for the evil gimmick. INDEED, you are correct.
