Retired from wrestling in 2005. His post-WWE career consisted of three matches in Australia and no-showing a fourth match. There was a rumor about ten years ago that he was going to make a comeback in TNA, but nothing ever came of it (supposedly got hurt before he could sign with them). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Lord Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 Creative gets a lot of shit for all the horrible gimmicks and story's. But you have to remember 98% of what we see is just them playing to Vince's likes. We know Vince loves junior high humor. So of course he'll greenlight a stuttering gimmick or a giant puss filled tumor on a very attractive woman's face. Man, the mid 2000's were terrible times.

Craig H Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 Vince's humor is what drove WWE creative to saddle Nattie with a farting gimmick, or in the case of another woman, they stuck a fake mole on her face because Vince thought the "mole" gag from the third Austin Powers movie was funny.

It's in Louisville and as long as they're presenting something vaguely resembling episodic Southern 'rasslin, I can't see Cornette wanting a ridiculous paycheque for doing it. There's a market out there for it. Does Dean Hill still do ring announcing/commentary there? Gilbert Corsey is their lead announcer (and a very good friend of mine). Last show I went to a couple months ago, Ted McNailer (sp?) was doing color. They’ve had a few legit standing-room-only shows lately. Mostly for their Saturday Night Specials which are their equivalent of a PPV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m very curious to see what happens as well, but I have a feeling the ticket brokers will be on this one and it may artificially drum up the demand. Could be an nxt Brooklyn 2 scenario. It will be interesting to watch and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really, it makes no difference since I am getting the lowest tier ticket. Big bunch of shows in the Bay that weekend. KOI revisited and Hoodslam on Friday the 6th, then the Cow Palace on Saturday. I'm sure there are others, but those are the big ones, for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
