Rev Ray Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 I would also like to chime in that the first part of the Triple H interview is really good. And I think Batista said he was doing a Kickboxer reboot, not Bloodsport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie M. Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 It was great. Austin's said a few times that he prefers doing face-to-face interviews so he probably hasn't had a chance. Jericho mentioned this was done backstage before SummerSlam. Interested to see if they get into any of their own personal history in part two.

The Penn State title change would seem to be one of the big things to discuss, along with the WM feud and steph's dog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExcellenceofAirPollution Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 they'd probably both like to forget the 2002 program. I know Jericho is on the record of thinking their HIAC match was really good and is underrated (which I agree with).....but that feud sucked and I doubt either of them look back on it fondly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenbat Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Part 2 went way too fast. I'm torn between turning into a mark for Businessman Triple H and remembering all the stories of him politicking and burying through the years (the Alex Greenfield story about him destroying the original RVD/World Title reign during the brand split comes to mind) but fuck it, he's the king, let's hope the NXT Generation is the key.

Playa Shunna Ver 3.0 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 No matter what you think about the guy, he worked harder than almost everyone else and got where he was. I like when he said guys were bitching when he went to production meetings and he was like "then get up and show up at 10am", but no one did.

Technico Support Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 I legitimately can't wait for Vince to finally give up so HHH can take over completely. Yeah, the guy has his own issues but nothing is as bad as Vince's straight-up lunacy. I don't think HHH has anywhere near the self-loathing Vince has about being involved with "wrestling," for one thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E.J. Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 It'll be interesting who fills the "Vince" role of having final say on all decisions. While Triple H seems to being groomed for it, let's not forget he has a McMahon for a wife, and she hasn't always been known to be the most rational person.

TerjeRUN Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Enjoyed the HHH interviews very much. I had heard they were a retread of his DVD, but I didn't think so too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supremebve Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Marc Mero has to the world's biggest douche, HHH brought him up as a guy who he didn't like working with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig H Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Oh man, the Marc Mero dig was classic. Mero must be a running gag at WWE. I also loved the mindset of the Monday Night Wars and the heat that was on Jericho. I remember there being heat on Jericho because he hurt Chyna or something, but it had more to do with the WWE guys protecting their turf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Playa Shunna Ver 3.0 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 When HHH was fucking Chyna the heat was because Jericho hurt her. Now that HHH wants to distance himself from Chyna at all costs, the heat is a turf thingy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

odessasteps Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 After all the hype, i was underwhelmed by part 2 of HHH stuff. Maybe it was because they didnt talk about what i wanted to hear, but i was glad they talked about the psu match and the tag match from San Jose. Not bad, mind you. Maybe the WCW. Stuff in part one will grab me more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think HHH has anywhere near the self-loathing Vince has about being involved with "wrestling," for one thing. Me too, but not because I have some kind of hatred for Vince or anything, but it's pretty clear the big, new sweeping changes that need to happy aren't gonna happen until Vince is out.

Rev Ray Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 Part 1 is the better of the two HHH segments, though I got a laugh out of Jericho running the Jean-Paul Levesque promo with drunken Gordon Solie.... from here: http://youtu.be/LsMQKOxrJx8 His accent is in the most baffling since the Mark Gullen introduction of Teijo Khan from Memphis. Anyway, Mark Mero sure is the butt of jokes from WWE guys. I mean, unless he was stiffing the hell out of guys, it didn't seem like was that terrible match wise. I think a lot of the bitterness from Mick and Austin were over the deal that Mero got. And Jericho's "tribute" to Joan was kinda odd. I figured he'd go the high road and do a "if you don't have anything nice to say", but whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 I wonder how much of the heat with Mero is also because of all the media he did following the Benoit stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mco543 Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 Man, that Mark Gullen promo is one of my favorite things ever. He sounds like he's trying to do some kind of Orson Welles impression or something and it's tremendous. Wrestling needs a Mark Gullen character right now, just some rich guy traveling the world bringing monsters in to beat the shit out of John Cena. "And Billy Travis...we will brrrreak youuuu!" For my money the most baffling accent I've ever heard is Jon Voight's in Anaconda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Fresh Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 Oh God, this part almost broke me, Vince: Hey pal, I need you to go do this movie. HHH: Is it any good? Vince: I don't know; I haven't read it. Just tell the director what you wanna do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
