They set up the idea that he was a real repoman, but one that instead of getting duplicate keys from the dealer, would smash in the window and hotwire the car.  Which seems like a really bad business move to me...

 

But, still, a repo man as a good guy just doesn't make any sense to me on any level.  I can't see it.

they are good guys on that show, right?  If he is taking shit from heels I think it can work.  He's just trying to earn a living in a down economy.  If you are cross promoting it with lizard lick towing he's gotta be a face, it wouldnt' do much for business if he was a heel on the show/raw.

Didn't he steal the Million Dollar Belt? That could be considered a face move.

 

Stole it from Virgil to give back to DiBiase.  Nope, still heel.

I guess I also can't understand why anyone would watch a show about repo men.

 

Then again, shows about people profiting off the misery of others during a bad economy seem to be a booming business right now, so clearly I'm the odd one.  Fair enough.

Why don't you go ask Emilio Estevez.

Jesse Ventura is cool. But Stan Hansen is the best. 

Oh dan, it was supposed to start at 5:00. Digging the Ventura promo too, though. Jerry Lawler can become a horse jockey.

And Borne specifically stole mannerisms from Romero for Doink. That they never paired them in the few short months where they could have kills me.

You know, talking about Repo men being heels or babyfaces or whatever.  In all fairness, there are no true babyfaces on television anymore, wrestling or otherwise.

Yeah we know, Vince gave the same speech in a promo in 1997.

If their new thing is that everything is real, and there is no where else to work but WWE, then they should start attaching $ values to victories.

 

It would make losing streaks mean something (poor Zach Ryder can't even afford a six-pack of Pabst Blue these days). It would explain how Big Show went broke, as he was 2-8 on PPV's last year. 

 

I'd give such an idea four Post-Modern Douchebags, out of five

That's a great idea, but to truly sell it, we need Dusty on commentary ranting about going to the "pay winda."

We just need Ritchie Steamboat to come and save us.

I hate to disagree with Fowler on all things liberal, but as the most liberal person on this board, I have no problem with a Repo-man being a face.  If you don't pay your bills, you're breaching your contract with the company you bought from, and they have the right to reclaim their property.
