BillThompson Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 What if WWF hadn't of turned Powers of Pain in 1988 and instead had kept riding their rising level of popularity? I'm thinking they definitely would have been tag champs at some point, and the long term ramifications could have been many, affecting teams like the Rockers and Hart Foundation most notably.

Spritenaut 32 Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 The Lilian Garcia call was always puzzling. When Raw is on the verge of wreckage, who thought it was important to get Lilian Garcia? Not gonna lie, I have no idea what I'm supposed to be getting out of the gif (as relates to the quote about Lillian), but it made me laugh anyway.

My takeaway from this is that with Matt's denial, it's FSW trying to give you the stinkface up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hooker Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 I've been wondering lately why the WWE didn't go the Triple Crown route and have their heavyweight champion carry around the WWE, WCW, and ECW titles. Heck, go the full monty and toss in the AWA, and WCCW titles as well. I'm sure WWE would never do this as it would be a sort of admission that other promotions were on their level, but I think it would have been/would be really cool. The WWE also sells replica and cheaply made not-quite-so-replica belts. I imagine having the champ walking around with, say, three belts would produce more than a 1/3 dropoff in purchasing of individual belts. Moreover, as the current Orton run is proving, the top guy holding multiple belts just looks pretty bad. That might just be Orton's lack of charisma, though.

mco543 Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 My biggest issue is that Orton carries the belts around with zero prestige and pride. He just slings them both over the same shoulder and goes about his business. It's the same problem I had with Ambrose shoving the belt down his pants and Rollins just tossing his like a sack of shit over the guard rail; if they don't care about holding the belts why should the fans?

Kuetsar Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 It would take Brock working a semi-full schedule to pull of the awesomeness of triple belts. Give it to him for a few months or so and it would be over. or MAYBE trips. . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel the same way. Especially last night when he entered the ring and just tossed the World Championship in the ring, and held the WWE title as he walked up ring stairs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be awesome methinks. It'd have to be other dead promotion titles. There are too many WWE title variants to carry without an entorauge. (12 without customs). (And as an aside, Bix, I totally disagree with your design rankings!) Now the other thing, is do you use the WCCW and AWA belts, or just use the USWA belt (since it was just those two titles unified anyway). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, Stone Cold and the Rock never wore their belts either and pretty much just flung them in the ring. And I'm pretty sure Stone Cold talked about how he broke his once doing that. Hell, Cena flings the belt around and broke the spinner plate a couple times back when his version spun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the spinner belt is great. It might need to make a reappearance if Cena ever turns heel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
