If the Usos are dropping the paint they need a new titantron display badly.
As long as the wrestler has the charisma, promo skills and is able to hold his own in the ring, like Slater, yes.

WTF DID YOU SAY?

Hes being a nerd not racist marks.
You're working yourselves into a shoot.

You know who's aged the worst by far for me in my WCW rewatch?
Sting. I used to love Sting as a kid but now he's just so dull. He's nothing more than a decent worker with a great look. His promos feel like sub-par Hogan promos, he's not as good in-ring as Steamboat in the early 90s, He's better than Luger in-ring but Luger has this weird awful/great intangible factor that I can't explain. And Luger is hammy as fuck for the camera. Like Luger is the most 'aware' of his overness of any wrestler I've seen.
Sting's just there. He's just ok.

That perfectly describes why Sting is the icon of WCW. WCW is that type of product.

Fuck that brother! You get entered into a wet t shirt contest with those words.
I want his ass in a match.
I guess that adds up with Austin being the WWF icon because everything around him is shit but he drags it up to the surface.
I'd rather everything around the shit be good than only one highlight in the sea of garbage

I bet rhat hack Meltzer feels like an idiot for doubting thw greatness that is of an SD ppv. Once again, I prove that mark wrong.
Exactly. Thank you for pointing it out
So you can eat the pin like Ambrose did?

Yup. Everything just clicked in this Slater story, and that's due in no small part to Slater himself. Best part is you know this probably wasn't the original plan. No way they could have guessed Heath getting over like he has or him and Rhyno having such good chemistry. So kudos to creative for adjusting once they realized what they had.
People are calling for Heath/Slater to drop the belts soon, but I'd rather they keep them at least till Survivor Series. Let them run with the ball and see what they do with it.
You've worked yourself into a shoot brother. You're exposing da bisnizz.
EVIL STING RULES
My favorite signs at Backlash tonight;
- Heath Slater riding a rhino
- DELETE
- I KNEW YOU'D COME
Shit youre right >_<
The best part is that they deserve it. Rhyno is an underrated legend near the end of his run and Heath is super consistent, he's done well with everything they gave him, so seeing those two holding a championship is awesome.
Them both telling each other thank you at the end was a weirdly touching moment.

At least the Hardys like people like me
Why do the fucking tolerant ones have to be in the Nazi company, this sucks
Trade them with Seth and have them kill off Styles

Good news is that Corgan wants to buy the company outright from them.
Yup. Much as I like American Alpha, them winning wouldn't have felt nearly as good. Heath and Rhyno earned this moment.
I know we like to say everything on Talking Smack is a shoot, but I do think Rhyno was being sincere when he said he saw something in Heath and wanted to help him out. Both dudes are probably super grateful to each other.

I went to Virginia to visit my girlfriends sister and took a detour to backlash. Had fun cheering for aj winning the title but it sucked getting a speeding ticket ten minutes away from where I'm staying after driving for almost 2 hours.

What has happened with Slater really makes me miss Sandow again.

Why
If anything, it would have made things more damning. Willing to push Slater and Rhyno, while Ryback, Cody, and Sandow struggle for time

HEY YOU DIDN'T ASK IF YOU COULD MENTION MY NAME! Get in line groupie!
Those guys would likely have prospered with the brand split.
They chose to leave or make salary demands the WWE found outrageous.

You know, I need a best of Rick Martel dvd before he headlines the hof next year.

hahahahahah yeah okay
People have been thinking Sandow would have prospered from the moment he came up short against Cena, and Cody was thinking he'd get out of that dumb costume and gimmick from the moment the Goldust feud bombed out of existence. Shit wasn't happening, no matter how much time any alternate universe was willing to give it that ending wasn't getting happier for those two.
Ok Alex Wright

My name isn't Alex but I'm always right.
Also people forget how awful that short Sandow run was once he dropped the Mizdow gimmick. He just came off as super obnoxious and bombed hard.

Slater's the new Ziggler. Wait his time and then get his 15 minutes

I wonder if Vince can get us an En Vogue reunion at Mania 33 for the national anthem.

You didn't have to compare him to Ziggler to say that. So disrespectful.
