Why does JBL say Maggle?

 

[Sanjuro]

What??? "THATS NOT CYCLOPE!!!!" is a top 3 pop moment

That involved Jericho though! The man who is single-handedly carrying the business in 2016.

Why does JBL say Maggle?

If you're serious, it's how he tends to pronounce Cole's actual name. Although I figure once it took off as something people made fun of, he probably exaggerated it more intentionally to sound like it.

I went to many events and I would disagree. I'm not saying there was zero reaction, but they were not under the pressure of the crowd turning on them.

It was basically elevated jobber matches.

There was the occasional dead crowd because I recall thinking from time to time "I wish they were more into this rad match..." But based on my rewatch, there were a lot of invested crowds having a gay ol' time during the cruiserweights. Especially when they opened the show, as the fans were energized and raring to go.

I think you just need to (re?)watch every Nitro from 1996 to 1998, Sanjuro, and then you, NeoGAF Vince McMahon, Dato, strobogo, RBH, and I can have a roundtable discussion about it.

Let us know when you finish.

If the match is actually the main event, they're gonna need an ambulance on standby.

 

[Uno Venova]

Oh so it's going to be one of THOSE nights huh

That was the only way to redeem another rematch. maybe they'll try to make this as exciting as the Lita/Trish match.

Well we all remember a certain botch from that match that hopefully will not happen tonight.

 

[Syder]

Watch Raw however you can!

I'm sure I'll get sucked back in. This is an illness.

 

[SymbiantXenos]

Im here ready and waiting for a non stop.action filled three hours of wrassling.

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

Christ, apparently Neville's on Superstars again. Is he ever gonna join the Cruiserweights?

 

[Man God]

Nobody gave a shit about the WCW Cruiserweights.

The 90s era works better when the fans weren't complete shit. They had the attention span to just sit through and humor stuff.

The white ones did get over eventually. Namely Jericho and Dean Malenko.

 

[Sibersk Esto]

[Angry Grimace]

They must have not sold out the arena based on the lighting

They are drawing 7500 for PPVs. The brand split has been a HUGE disaster for live gate.

Superstars and Main Event has had Cruiserweight matches, so technically yes he already is

 

[Morfeo]
