PILLS! PILLS! PILLS! 0 Report post Posted November 19, 2008 I think Vince could pull off Professional Amateur Wrestling. Well, he does have a flawless track record with legitimate competitive activities, and America is fucking ga-ga over Amateur wrestling, so... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DrVenkman PhD 0 Report post Posted November 19, 2008 No one answered Psycho Penguin but this was indeed a taped show (taped with Raw last night). So from Matt mentioning Mr. Electricity, I take it they mentioned the late Mr. Electricity Steve Regal? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Boner Kawanger 0 Report post Posted November 19, 2008 Yeah, Striker said something like "In the past, he was Steve Regal, not to be confused with Mr. Electricity" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for the Fish 0 Report post Posted November 19, 2008 I noticed he was back to the granny swimsuit look this week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
haws bah gawd 0 Report post Posted November 19, 2008 I'm not digging Regal's old lady swimsuit at all. If he's going to continue to wear the top, at least get the man some long tights, or baggy Rey Mysterio/Carlito-style pants. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thanks for the Fish 0 Report post Posted November 19, 2008 DJ Gabriel's entrance was brilliant. It will not have long time staying power, but it will be a hook to get him over initially. Gabriel has been in wwe developmental for years, and actually was released at one point as part of a mutual agreement that he go back to the UK and learn the European style. He has appeared on wwe programming in the past as well, I believe he was an "Angle Invitational" spot in the UK, and actually got in some offense. Alicia Fox (Victoria Crawford) was hired same time as Kelly Kelly, out of the same swimsuit magazine IIRC. She has been training in-ring during her developmental stint, so in the very least expect her to take bumps on occasion. Word of warning for the squeamish - she has an outie (sorry it's just a huge hang-up for me). Is Gabriel a face or heel? I assume cocky heel right? How many faces does ECW have? Hardy, Finlay and Dreamer? I assume gabriel will be squashing jobbers until Swagger vs Dreamer is finished and then we'll get Dreamer vs DJ Gabriel. ECW has a talent roster of 20, however only 13 wrestlers. Henry, Miz, Morrison, Chavo, Swagger, Neely are the heels and Hardy, Dreamer, Bourne(injured and on Raw?), Finlay, Ortiz, Gavin Spears and Boogeyman the faces. I guess Finlay vs DJ Gabriel could work, with Hornswoggle vs Alicia interaction at ringside. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
