The Iron Yuppie Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 3 minutes ago, Zartan said: This post shook my nerves and the last one rattled my brain. These kind of PPV names drive a man insane. Well, after the weird shit about Vince and dry leaves discussed earlier in this thread, a PPV honoring the 13-year-old-marrying Jerry Lee Lewis makes sense. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritenaut 32 Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Great Balls of Fire seems like a really strange name for a PPV unless the gimmick is a night of inferno matches. Also, when the show inevitably disappoints, that title is going to lend itself to some really off-color jokes. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReiseReise Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 24 minutes ago, AxB said: EDIT to add: Bret's WWF contract stated he had 'creative control ' over his character. So he absolutely had the right to to refuse to lose one match... especially considering all the matches Michaels had refused to lose (the Euro to Bulldog being the obvious example). Is it known what the creative control clause said in detail? Aside from that, isn't abuse of creative control clauses what is (rightfully imo) criticized about Hogan, Nash and co? I'm not questioning others wrongful refusals to do jobs. I always was a Bret guy and I never liked Shawn. From an emotional pov I totally get Bret going "anyone but him". But I still think refusing to do the honors in Montreal was simply wrong. It puts the score 3-1 between Shawn('s faction) and Bret('s faction), I'll give you that.

Or if you sympathize more with Barbarian, your shoulder. That is just ridiculous -- can you imagine the conversation between the two? Nord: "Hey I'm gonna come off the top on you tonight, that cool?" Barbarian: "Yeah no problem." Yeah... that was probably the conversation, because that's how tough those two motherfuckers are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it is this thread needs to not only be locked but closed from viewing and never brought up again. I think the worst of it is done yet. If we can get through earlier this week then I think this thread's fine. And it's only a couple more days. As for "Great balls of fire" it could be worse. If it wasn't a PG environment there'd be so many bad jokes on TV about it. As it is it seems like a PPV name ECW would come up with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or this Actually Braun vs Brock in a dumpster of fire match wouldn't be terrible. Be fun to see Brock and Braun brawl all over the arena and eventually to the dumpster area out back would be alot of fun. Also you could put Braun over without pinning Brock and Brock being tossed into a dumpster of fire would be a good way to write Brock of television until Wrestlemania season.

Phantom Lord Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Vince probably wanted to do something with Chuck Berry, but when Chuck died he was all "SON OF A BITCH...GET ME SOMEONE STILL ALIVE DAMN IT". Jerry Lee Lewis taking over as the new COO over RAW from Stephanie. He's just gonna hurl whiskey bottles at people and play some piana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bret wasn't refusing to do the job, he just didn't want to do it for Michaels. And to be fair, if the positions were reversed, Michaels would have absolutely refused to do the job to Bret, and been a much bigger prick about it, too.

The way Bret tells it, he went to HBK to clear the air in front of the rest of the locker room and tell him that he (Bret) wasn't going to take any liberties and that he was fine to do the job. HBK apparently told Bret that he wouldn't do the same for him and that's what set Bret off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
