Mr. Luchador is wording what I'm trying to say better than I can.

Except, escaped convict character? Nailz was legit escapee, all the way. You could only get a voice like that from being in prison.

I don't think Doink had a job as a clown. I think he just liked to dress like one. I have serious doubts that the man went to Clown School.

 

[kiguel182]

We already had big show do that. Make him wrestle in McDonald's gear, co-marketing



He also apparently gets plenty of exposure on the diva show. But I don't watch it, so all I know is he's married to Natalya and has some cat fetish. What about that will get me invested in a feud? Is there a wrestler with a dog fetish? Cat vs Dog match?

Have you watched his NXT run? He was a cocky heel that just tought he was better than everyone while everyone made fun of him for being in the shadow of Natalya. He also treated her like crap because of that while being totally delusional about the whole thing.

The reason you don't know any of his is because WWE creative doesn't give him promos or interviews like they did on NXT. The fact that he has trunks or that plays a normal guy has nothing to do with it.

Doink wasn't a clown, he was a psycho who knew that clowns were scary and used that to his advantage.

I remember what happened to the last guy that thought it would be a good idea to advertise his affection for man's best friend.

I don't actually watch wrestling any more. That's the funnest part about this thread. I live vicariously through you guys, and then if something sounds amazing, I'll hunt for clips.

I have to say, the kennel in hell match with mick foley and kevin kelly doing commentary is pretty great.

Al Snow is a good example of a character maybe not working. What the hell was his character? He was crazy and talked to a head. Then the head got pinned because they put a bottle of Head and Shoulders into the base of the head, so he got a dog. What the fuck man.

Crazy fucking asshole Bossman was the best. Can't wait to rewatch his stuff.

 

[Data West]

'With the deepest regrets, and tears that are soaked
I'm sorry to hear that your dad finally croaked
He lived a full life on his own terms
Soon he'll be buried and eaten by worms
But if I could have a son as stupid as you
I'd have wished for cancer so I would die too
So be brave, and be strong, get your life on track
'Cause the old bastard's DEAD and he ain't never comin' back!'

But see, Bossman. Not Joebob Smith. At the very least, dudes should have a handle like boxers. Worked for Bret and HBK.

[EDIT =- so if you google "big show father", this is what comes up. https://www.google.com/search?q=big+show+father&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8 ]

Big Show bodysurfing his father's casket as Bossman drives away with it will never not be funny.

I have to go mow my backyard before it's about 700 degrees outside. I haven't done it since like november. Wish me luck. I'm guessing I have to dump the bag at least four times.

Ah, but it's apparently OK now, because they aren't dirty gaijin.

He was a comedy character. The loon. You could slot him in anywhere on the lower-to-mid card to inject some levity. That Head and Shoulders bit falls in the same vein as a Santino match on Saturday Morning Slam or Daniel "Dazzler" We-All-Wrestle-Bears Bryan. Just some lighthearted fluff.

Then again, that feud with Bossman was amazingly dark. Not sure if they were going for humor or what, but Bossman is still one of my favorite psychopath heels as a result of that and the Big Show feud.

Internet wrestling forum quiz.

Do you ever feel like...

1. You're expecting or even hoping for the show you're watching to be shit, just to have something to complain about?

2. You spend more time complaining about wrestling than actually watching it?

3. You could be doing way more constructive things instead of complaining about wrestling?

Super negative quiz, but something to get the juices flowing.

Gonna watch some NJPW now. Wee.

I definitely spend more time here than watching wrestling. That's easy when I only watch the ppvs. I don't have cable and Raw isn't worth a Hulu subscription.

Wish Bossman got his hands on McMichael's dog

There are people you can hire for that, bjork...

 

[Mr. Luchador]

A+ commentary.

Oh was that explained in the video, I never watched it!

Wasn't his character that he had had too many (failed) gimmicks and went a bit mental? Then one day he turned into a Tough Enough trainer.

Great NJC finals

Invasion attack is going it be dope

 

[Sibersk Esto]

I'm watching these 97 RAWS and back when he was Leif Cassiday Snow was losing to every debuting wrestler and then acting crazy

 

[Data West]

Savant bookers Jado & Gedo are having a meeting backstage to discuss Marufuji's 'worst year ever' angle with Minoru Suzuki rehearsing the lines, 'You are not Mr GHC. You are a long way from it.'

 

[Mr. Luchador]

Yeah, I think that was the start of it. I think he snaps and says his name is Al Snow or something and disappears to ECW for a while.

 

[slightconfuse]

Cody hall has a amazing ,Laritoooo

 

[Sibersk Esto]

I find it hilarious that this 3 and a half minute video titled "When wrestling was good" is just Vader murdering people in WCW

[klonere]

I miss the days when wrestlers would die on a monthly basis too, bjork.

If only wrestlers took more chair shots to the face and bled more those days would return

 

[British Monsoon]

Is it?

Yes, judging from the number of people on my twitter feed who can't stand "western" heel tactics when the Bullet Club do it, but funnily enough don't seem to mind when it's Suzuki-gun.

Don't forget the drugs. Jesus fuck, what's happened to this sport?

There would be a lot more entertaining wwe wrestlers if a bunch of them took cocaine

I like to think the double bird flipping camera winking swearing Randy Orton is the only one man enough to keep up the old traditions

 

[Man God]

Less recreational drugs, better, harder to detect performance enhancing drugs cycled properly.

I do wonder how many UFC fighters are going to get got with their new drug testing policy.

So good

we need more stuff like this.

Imagne rusev's Russian gulag

 

[dream]

The WWE always says that Jake Roberts "has a great mind for the business." I think it's time to put their money where their mouths are, and hire Jake as an agent. He'd be unable to resist the temptations of the road, and could usher in a new era of greatness by introducing today's roster to the pleasures of crack cocaine.

 

[UberTag]

Don't forget the drugs. Jesus fuck, what's happened to this sport?

This isn't a sport any more. The sport is dead.
Watch UFC for the sport. Plenty of drugs still there, too.

This is now a circus. And every performer is a clown. A clown to entertain us. Are you not entertained?

ps hayes would light a crack pipe next to jakes bed and ask him to suck his dick

stop making me sad we won't have this

 

[notworksafe]

DDP has said something similar on Stone Cold's pod, non-sarcastically. He thinks Jake would be well suited to be a behind the scenes guy at WWE. Also mentioned that Hall really enjoys camera directing. I'd be down to watch a Raw directed by Scott Hall.

 

[TimeEffect]

Is Stardust in the IC match?

Is there still a chance he gets in when Sheamus returns to crush Bryan?

the shaky cam wouldnt even be intentional

We need a segment of Rusev murdering dissidents with his bare hands for Putin.

 

[Sibersk Esto]

The fact we're never gonna get a Rusev/Umaga feud then tag team makes me incredibly sad

I don't mind it overall, but it makes Jado and Gedo look like they only know how to book one thing. And neither has proven they know how to book faction warfare despite their boner for it compared to guys like Genki.

 

[The Shapesmith]

That Vader video is 15 shades of great! I loved watching him crush jobbers in handicap matches every week and powerbombing people on the floor.

It's cute how much they're trying to minimize D.Brine this year. They should crop out half of his head just for shits and giggles.
