Golgo 13 0 Report post Posted July 9, 2008 Cor Von at least sounded bad ass and they let him keep his look and moveset. Harris or even Ortiz don't even get that much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for the Fish 0 Report post Posted July 9, 2008 Ricky Ortiz and Braden Walker - who the hell are coming up with these names? It's like they want to make the talent as absolute bland as possible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Ghost of bps21 0 Report post Posted July 9, 2008 Well...that was before they were taking the Drug Policy seriously. I'm just throwing that out there since the only thing I'd heard of Ortiz before he debuted was that he used to be a lot bigger. Monty Brown is going to end up being an interesting footnote in the history of wrestling. The guy had so much charisma and he was pretty decent in the ring for how little he seemed to care most of the time. If you could put someone elses desire into him they'd have had something special.

Thanks for the Fish 0 Report post Posted July 9, 2008 I actually liked Marquis Cor Von name. It had certain flair. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kristianna 0 Report post Posted July 9, 2008 Wow, Lena was at least believable as a bitchy diva heel. Having her give interviews is certainly not the way to go. And that Ortiz guy is definitely an incredible fucking doofus. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cheetoe 0 Report post Posted July 9, 2008 WWE seems to have this process of breaking guys down and building them back up in the "WWE" image. Some guys seem to be able to survive it and hold on to a little bit of what got them there but it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. This Evan Bourne guy looks kinda sorta like A.J. Styles.

Kristianna 0 Report post Posted July 9, 2008 Adamle is just terrible. It's honestly the best work of all time, so far. I can't honestly tell if he's actually terrible or its just an act. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Exslade ZX 0 Report post Posted July 9, 2008 Hey, if 'Air Bourne' is the name of his finisher, I approve. (A statement Adamle just said) Damn, that SSP is amazing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Ghost of bps21 0 Report post Posted July 9, 2008 Let's see the Superstar Initiative has brought us Evan bourne, Ricky Ortiz and Braden Walker so far. Evan bourne debuted as Matt Sydal until they decided to change it... Ricky debuted as Atlas until they decided to change it... What will Braden Walker's name be next?

Exslade ZX 0 Report post Posted July 9, 2008 So, is it wrong to say I've actually not disliked 'Cocky asshole' Mark Henry tonight? Not much to it but I've actually liked the smugness he's shown in the two segments he's had tonight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Downhome 0 Report post Posted July 9, 2008 It's about time they lift the "ban" on the SSP. Didn't they originally "ban" it when Billy Kidman started almost killing everyone with it? That's been a long time ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's been a long time ago. Not to mention, Sydal's about a hundred times more talented at pulling it off. Wow, Matt Sydal may get very big in the WWE. Don't get ahead of yourself, they have a wonderful track record of taking great things and making them incredibly mediocre. Yea, but the guy in your sig would dare say differently. So maybe they're trying something new. Hopefully. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thanks for the Fish 0 Report post Posted July 9, 2008 Bourne is horrid in interviews/promos, but he really brings it in the ring. That is a picture perfect SSP. What's with the recent developmentals having no promo ability? Hawkins/Ryder are brutal, Bourne is brutal, Ortiz is brutal, Braden is brutal. Tony Atlas must be joining Henry as a manager or something, otherwise there was no reason for his use tonight and changing Ortiz' name. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
