Guest Kingpk Posted June 24, 2002 Report Posted June 24, 2002 I swear to god people are never fucking happy. Even if Brock has no heat currently... do you think maybe they are trying to you know BUILD him to get some heat while pushing someone new? Don't know how I missed this. A guy should be able to generate some heat by HIMSELF. Rock did it with his charisma, Booker T by his comedy, Edge & Christian also by comedy, RVD by his different style, the list goes on and on. Brock has Heyman as a mouthpiece, THAT'S IT. When the guy can cut (or even DOES cut) a decent promo and get over without Heyman, I'll change my stance. Wow, this is probably the most vocal I've ever been here.
Guest Incandenza Posted June 24, 2002 Report Posted June 24, 2002 Well, my brain automatically tries to wipe out bad memories when it comes to Pay Per Views in order to rationalize to itself spending the money, so I have yet to be as dissatisfied with a Pay Per View as I was with Backlash 2001. I have yet to order a bad PPV. Note I said "order." I've seen a number of crappy PPVs thanks to home video, but thankfully I've avoided shelling out large sums of cash for them. The three PPVs I've ordered this year (Royal Rumble, Wrestlemania and Backlash) were thumbs-in-the-middle territory, which seems to be par for the course as far as this year goes, though early word on KotR has it sucking, and doing so majorly.
Guest MarvinisaLunatic Posted June 24, 2002 Report Posted June 24, 2002 The-year-in-PPV'S-so-far: Royal-Rumble-** No-Way-Out-*** WrestlemaniaX-8-** Backlash-DUD Judgement-Day-DUD King-Of-The-Ring-DUD Quite-Impressive. On-another-note,That-HHH/Nwo-skit-had-me-fooled-for-a second.I-figured-HHH-would-win-the-title,then-join-the-NWO the-next-night-on-Raw. Could the DUDS be a result of Booker T not being on the card for any of them? Note to Vince: Booker T on a PPV card is a good thing! Him winning would be an even better thing!

But he has to have a shot does he not? Give him the shot up to Summerslam to see what happens. If he drops the ball I will be all over him. I just want someone new to get a shot. Damn this is vocal for me too.
Guest godthedog Posted June 24, 2002 Report Posted June 24, 2002 Royal-Rumble-** No-Way-Out-*** WrestlemaniaX-8-** Backlash-DUD Judgement-Day-DUD King-Of-The-Ring-DUD come on, RR was a lot better than nWo. nWo had no standout matches at all, RR had a very good jericho/rock match and a good rumble.
Guest Flyboy Posted June 24, 2002 Report Posted June 24, 2002 People whine and cry about HHH, Taker and Hogan being in the main event, yet they try something and the guy isn't someone you would gladly take it up the ass from you get all pissed. GIVE IT A GODDAMN SHOT. Why give something a chance when we KNOW that's it's going to fucking suck?
Guest Rabbi_wilson13 Posted June 24, 2002 Report Posted June 24, 2002 I didn't order it, and I felt bad at first when I read about the RVD/Jericho match. Not that should of been a frickin' semifinal anyway... Glad to see they've managed to screw up a golden oppurtunity for Taker/RVD. I don't mind them pushing Brock...but winning like that? Just catching RVD and...whatever. Look at the WWF and you have the potential for this top of the card: Rock, RVD, Eddy, Benoit, Jericho, Angle, Flair, UT, Kane, Edge, Raven EDIT- How'd I forget Booker?! Toss in HBK for a couple matches... and instead we have Rock, HHH, Undertaker, maybe Angle as it is Screw this stuff. I'm sick of it.
Guest Human Fly Posted June 24, 2002 Report Posted June 24, 2002 How can that be? They're on different shows. Whoops. Forgot about that.
Guest Flyboy Posted June 24, 2002 Report Posted June 24, 2002 I just want someone new to get a shot. Then, why not give it to the best choice? He would be someone new. I mean, I see your reasonings, but still... they are some holes in some of them.
Guest Angle-plex Posted June 24, 2002 Report Posted June 24, 2002 RVD/Jericho - ***1/2 Lesnar/Test- DUD Hurricane/Jobber- * (we need Rey) Eddy/Flair- *1/2 Molly/Trish- * Angle/Hogan- ** RVD/Lesnar- DUD HHH/Taker- DUD Good job, WWE. Brock: The Next Test
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Posted June 24, 2002 Report Posted June 24, 2002 "Well then how the fuck do you want him to be built? At least let them try for god's sake. Everything on earth doesn't have to go down exactly how you want it to. I am going to give them their shot to at least get him over. It very well could fail horribly, but I WANT them to get him over so that way its fresh. No one wants anyone to get over that is a new talent unless they specifically like him. People whine and cry about HHH, Taker and Hogan being in the main event, yet they try something and the guy isn't someone you would gladly take it up the ass from you get all pissed. GIVE IT A GODDAMN SHOT. " How should it go? Thats easy. WITHOUT THE TITLE BEING INVOLVED. Rock and Brock have an altercation before the finals...Heyman tries to cheat for Brock...Rock comes out and takes out Heyman...RVD rolls up Brock for the pin. RVD gets his payoff match vs. Taker at SummerSlam. Brock gets the rub from Rock by winning a match at either Summerslam or Vengeance. Brocks heat goes up...the main event of the second biggest show is not a DUD for a change...and has heat. Is it really this hard? Just like when HHH was heading towards MAnia: If you are not over...and not having good matches...YOU SHOULD NOT BE MAIN EVENTING.

Guest alfdogg Posted June 24, 2002 Report Posted June 24, 2002 Forgive my stupidity if I missed it, but I looked through the last five pages of this thread and didn't see one post that told me the result of the ME. Who won?

Guest Angle-plex Posted June 24, 2002 Report Posted June 24, 2002 Taker, although everyone got their heat back at the end. BTW: Brock Sucks!
Guest Kingpk Posted June 24, 2002 Report Posted June 24, 2002 Taker by a rollup with a handful of tights.
Guest Incandenza Posted June 24, 2002 Report Posted June 24, 2002 I'm really disappointed to hear that the Flair-Guerrero match sucked. That last match with Austin made me think that maybe he still had his mojo, but I guess his Rumble match with Vince and Wrestlemania match with Taker indicated just how crappy Flair is.
Guest Kotzenjunge Posted June 24, 2002 Report Posted June 24, 2002 The Year in Pay Per Views So Far: Royal Rumble: ***1/2 No Way Out: ** Wrestlemania: *** Backlash: *** Judgment Day: **3/4 King of the Ring: ** That's based on actual quality averaged with how much I enjoyed it.
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Posted June 24, 2002 Report Posted June 24, 2002 Ok..Mr. Rant. Which way SEEMS like it has the bigger chance at success. The WWE way...or the way I just laid out? And then why would you be happy with the one that isnt
Guest Nevermortal Posted June 24, 2002 Report Posted June 24, 2002 RVD/Jericho = ****? WTF? Were you watching the same match I was? No match on the card was above ***. Everything was boring as all hell. The people who I was watching wwith decided that the PPV was so boring that they'd have mock-wrestling matches in front of the TV. Fuck, it was more entertaining that HHH/Taker and HHH's 17482 Superman comebacks.

Because then you will just turn into bitter fucks that have nothing better to do then complain about every goddamn thing on the planet. Oops... already there. Sure am. What is there to be happy about the WWE, now? BROCK~! in the main event! Must rejoice! And, I doubt they change it... that would take a shitload of credibility from the KotR (not like the WWE would care). EDIT - Fucking typos! >_>
Guest SupaTaft Posted June 24, 2002 Report Posted June 24, 2002 I guess the only way to save Brock is if he can cut one hell of an interview. Come on Brock... Speak!! Come on... speeaak!! No? Damn...
Guest MrRant Posted June 24, 2002 Report Posted June 24, 2002 We have yet to see what the WWE way is. I like your idea and would prefer that happen while RVD is main eventing SS. But I'm willing to give it a chance and pray to god that it works out with Brock.
Guest Sakura Posted June 24, 2002 Report Posted June 24, 2002 Now, I am pissed Brock won, and I hate him with a passion, but it is WAY too early to start being angry that Brock will win the title or to say he will "probably" win it. I mean, just a week ago a bunch of the posters here were 100% SURE HHH was going to win and were damning him for it. And about "trying something new". Yes, they should, but not over something that is sure to work. RVD is over and is ready, it's a sure thing, it seems like it couldn't go wrong. Why would you possibly push Brock, who isn't even close to being over, instead of RVD? Common sense says to push RVD harder and slowly build up Brock. And I doubt Brock is ever going to get over in this role. He simply does not look the part. No matter how many times Ross tells me he is a monster he still looks like a mutated Crash Holly. I've said since day 1 this guy sucks. When EVERYONE was having an orgasm over him I was saying he looks like a hokey dumbass and he isn't impressive in the ring. I'm glad to see the next big thing to hate on is Brock.
Guest Kingpk Posted June 24, 2002 Report Posted June 24, 2002 We don't know for sure he will be main-eventing. If no heat gets built up they will probably change it like they did HHH/Taker. But lets at least see if it goes somewhere before we piss on it. Then another name goes into the book of "KOR Winners Who Did Jack-Shit with the Title" and the hype of "winner gets title shot at Summerslam" is wasted. Plus, wouldn't a Undisputed title match be a pretty logical choice for the Main? They did it at WM, of course, it was a colossal mistake because of Rock-Hogan.
