Kevin Wilson Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Since I don't really watch shoot interviews or listen to podcasts, its always interesting for me to hear wrestlers talking in their normal voices. Steiner just seems like another normal dude that saw something crazy in the video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zakk_Sabbath Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 My favorite Scott Steiner shoot interview is a clip I saw on YouTube where he was telling the guy he didn't remember the Varsity Club at all and asked "That really happened? You saw it? Must've been the shits" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate that shit. For instance, when you see a fluff piece regarding a charity that WWE is working with and the headline is something stupid like, "WWE lays the SMACKDOWN on breast cancer". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikoBaltimore Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Damn, I had no idea Zack had cancer. Between him overcoming that and the video overall I can't help but root for the guy. I doubt he'll be WHC, but I sure hope he has more chances to succeed, he deserves it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't old enough to see it in theaters, but all the basketball games were filmed in the high school gym in the town I live in, about 5 blocks away from where I'm sitting. My wife attended one or two of the games, I think her dad was able to get tickets because he ran the Boys and Girls Club and was connected with the school administrators.

What a mark" - something Meltzer would say Dave is becoming more and more Alvarez every day.

The problem though, is that fans of American pro wrestling just seem to be too snarky and too obsessed with being "cool smarks" for even that to work for Roman Reigns like it did for Rush and Naito. In Mexico or Japan, if the fans really aren't feeling a top babyface, there is the inherent chance that turning them heel could make them level up and become a star. By contrast, in America and similarly rejected babyfaces (more notable when it was John Cena, but partially seen with Reigns afterwards), there always seems to be that undercurrent of "Turn this guy heel so that I can finally cheer him and still keep my smark cred! I want to cheer him for how good he is, but if I do I'll instantly be seen as just another stupid mark!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The CEO is a friend of Steiner's. And I wouldn't call Shoney's an also-ran to the Cracker Barrel. I haven't eaten at one in a long time but I remember it being way superior.

I can't think of a single example where a babyface getting boo'd instantly got cheered upon turning heel. The closest I can think of is the Rock, and he went from "face who gets boo'd" to "heel who gets boo'd" to "heel who gets cheered." I can, however, think of heels who were getting cheers who got turned into bland babyfaces nobody cared about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
