DECEMBER 2017 WRESTLING DISCUSSION

[piranesi]

I know Vince is exactly the wrong person, but if someone started a new football league with, like, a 240 lb. weight limit, I would be so all in.

I didn't realize how good that Cesaro/Seamus match was at the time.

Yeah but if Vince did a football version of 205 Live he would book Johnny Manziel as the Tom Brady of the league 

Somewhere Triple H is trying to figure out the easier way to poison Vince without getting caught.   I mean between losing on the millions on the XFL and losing billions in TWO failed Linda campaigns, and try another football league, they might need a piggy bank

So wrestling Twitter is saying that Vince wants to bring back the XFL and will make the announcement sometime in January 

Why is everyone assuming the worst, just because every single attempt Vince has made to branch out beyond wrestling (promoting boxing; starting a bodybuilding federation; starting a football league; opening a film studio) has failed miserably?

There's a difference between "wants to" and "is going to."  He said that same shit in that 30 for 30.  I kinda hope he does so Stephanie and HHH get less.

I don’t buy this whole “Bock was gonna be Mr. Perfect “ bullshit. Bock was done then. And if any of you dum dums are actually shitting on Nick Mother Fucking Bockwinkel...Wow. I blame Trump. Because only the sub intelligent  population who spend their precious moments away from their sad and depressing lives at the Wrestling Matches, would be booing a man like Nick Bockwinkel. A man who is clearly the better of all other men. These Ham and Eggers, as Bobby is prone to say, are so blinded by their preconceived notions and the utter flim flamery of Verne Gagne and the flawed opinions of the rest of the so called “ Leaders” of Professional Wrestling Criticism “ that they can’t see what’s right in front of their sad and confused faces.

And that is the clear and undeniable fact that Nick Bockwinkel Fucking rules.

Where has this guy been hiding? 

Can somebody with editing skills, please add “Miserlou” under this, with a proper fade?

[clintthecrippler]

Wasn't the Bockwinkel/WWE rumor that he was considered for "The Million Dollar Man" role, which would make a little more sense as he had still been wrestling full-time in AWA up until that point.

This is the first I am hearing about him potentially being "Mr. Perfect." This sounds like some wires got crossed on the "who was supposed to be what gimmick" speculation.

[Johnny Sorrow]

At that time, Vince was giving out shots for lots of big names who were past their prime to make some big money in the hottest thing going. Harley Race is the best example. Bock did one Legends Battle Royal at the Meadowlands and that was it. I’m sure Vince would’ve loved to have him as a performer at one point, but by the time he got there Bock was old. It’s not inconceivable that Vince ran by his ideas about characters at various guys until the right performers came along, and that’s where the rumors come from.

Don't listen to the ramblings of the cretinous humanoids.

I'm also hearing swirls that it's likely more "Vince wants partial ownership of a pro sports TEAM" than "the XFL is back."

5 sequels to the Marine say that film studio is doing pretty damn well.

Here is an actual story written about it

Actually a worse idea than using this for the XFL is this is how they are going to bring back and push hard Chris Jericho 

[Phantom Lord]

First, can we just agree that Vince creating a side company or what ever called Alpha Entertainment is the most Vince thing he's done in years. I mean I can just see the meeting where he came up with the name.

I LIKE BEING AN ALPHA DAMN IT. WE NEED SOMETHING THAT SAYS WE'RE NUMBER ONE. ALPHA ENTERTAINMENT. ONLY WINNERS HERE.

 

As for Bockwinkle being Mr. Perfect, I never heard of that. But it really makes you wish he was about 15 years younger at that point. He and Heenan in the WWF at the time would have been Gold. Nick, Rick Rude, Andre. That right there is an imposing stable. Plus you have Haku. Tell me that isnt the greatest Survivor Series team ever.

[hammerva]

To be honest is Bockwinkel as the original Mr. Perfect any more nuts than Harley Race coming in 4 years past his expiration date to be "The King" ?

Right after Jericho stats selling Alpha Club shirts.  

Vince will sign Kaep and hope for massive ratings.

[DeathyBoy]

Just make a network comprised of old and new Vince projects.
