JULY 2015 WRESTLING DISCUSSION V.2.0


Recommended Posts

Bryan needs to bring back some mat wrestling to WWE. The audience needs to be conditioned that mat work doesn't have to be boring(just look at Sasha/Becky). I'm pretty jacked for some Bryan vs Owens, Zayn, Rusev, Neville, Balor, Joe, Itami, etc etc matches. Hopefully he can have a nice  run without getting hurt and call it a day.

 

could he adopt a Johnny Saint low-risk style and make it work in front of a WWE audience?

And NO ONE has mentioned Taker and Big Show riding bikes through the desert.

 

I actually kinda like that one! The worst was Taker coming out in like, sweatpants and a t-shirt and doing a classic Russo worked-shoot promo while he stumbled over his lines for whatever reason. That was so bad

Play time's over, sit down and shut up. Later on tonight, there's gonna be a match for the tag team titles between the Acolytes and X-Pac & Kane, whatever whatever, it's not important. The fact of the matter is, this Sunday at Summerslam the winner of that match will come face to face with this. And to make sure that my man was right, this week I put him to the test. I had Paul Bearer call out to California - San Fernando Valley to some associates of ours at the Local 81 - Paul said we're gonna need two bikes for a ride in the desert. The guy said 'Brother Paul, now we know that the Dead Man can handle it, but I don't know about the Big Show. It's August, it's 120 degrees in the middle of Death Valley.' He says 'the only things that survive in the desert are the cold-blooded...the snakes and the lizards.' Paul said 'that's all right, and in one of those bikes that you're setting up for us, I want you the Big Show to only have enough gas to get to the middle of the desert and not get back.' So we're on our way - we get to the middle of Death Valley - 120 degrees, the Big Show's bike runs out of gas. And I pull up next to him and I ask him this question: 'It's 120 degrees, how are you gonna survive?' He looks me straight in the eyes, without hesitation, he says 'I'm gonna wait 'til you go to sleep, I'm gonna stab you in the back, I'm gonna cut your flesh off, make a coat out of it, and I'm gonna eat YOUR flesh until I find food.' I said 'Good answer big man, but I don't sleep,' and I drove off and left him. I waited on the outskirts of the desert. Two days later, he walks out with a snake necktie and lizard boots, carryin' his Harley-Davidson on his shoulder. The point of the story is this. What used to be known as SummerSlam will now be known as Armageddon, and whoever shows up...will be hurt.

He must be talking about a different Taker promo because he's in Taker attire here:

On the subject of bad Russo shoots, I'll offer Dustin Rhodes from 1998:

 

 

Yeah, so I think the dude in the crowd answering Dustin's question about why Vince caused him to lose his wife and kids with an audible "'Cuz you're a faggot! 'Cuz you're a faggot, Rhodes!" sums up everything that I fucking hate about the Attitude Era. Man, fuck this.

It's crazy that Jericho is only one week removed from his debut in the WWF with The Rock, then interrupting The Undertaker. And his first official feud was... Road Dogg?
