cwoy2j Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 I remember "The Devil's Ride" tv show. It was train wreck bad. Just a show to capitalize on the popularity of Sons of Anarchy at the time. Basically it was about a fake motorcycle club but it was presented as a reality show. All of their fights pretty much boiled down to, "hey you can't wear that color here". Instead of tough guys, it made them sound like the Sneetches from that Dr. Seuss story. "Hey, you got stars upon thars, you can't come in here!". 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusty had plans for him within a couple of months of his debut. I don't think anyone was looking at 16-year-old Jeff Hardy in 1994 and thinking "Future WWE Champion." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxB Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 Well, if the WWF fans assumed that the WWE was some small regional promotion that would exist at some point in future history, they might accept the idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting, but I wished they’d fix the broken ass AI during tag matches instead. Having anything other than a singles match is no fun in those games.

The Baio reality show was developed by Bischoff/Hervey Entertainment (Bisch's production company). I didn't see his name listed in the credits on IMDB, but he's listed elsewhere as co-creator and executive producer. Hervey says he co-wrote (ugh) most episodes with Bischoff. I didn't know a Scott Baio reality show was a thing until this came up. I'm not feeling bad about not knowing. For once, knowing is not half the battle.

thee Reverend Axl Future Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 I dread WWE's near-future experiments with hologram/video game/CGI/deepfake/prosthetic tech to "re"-create matches between workers that never happened. Aided and abetted by consumer nerds who will pay for anything to avoid using their own imagination, the Uncanny Valley creepiness of all this is certain, as is the inevitable rewriting of history. Again. look at the evolution of Marvel's What If comic: interesting dramatic explorations, becoming more the basis for retroactive continuity overwrites into "if you like this, we'll make it into a series for you to buy". - RAF 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoneWolf&Subs Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 (edited) Hmmmmmm hologram... An Undertaker Vs. Undertaker match, but this time he’s fighting the Taker who “Died” at the hands of Paul Bauer, and Mankind. From that point on Taker was “powerless”, and didn’t use the powers of the Urn. What if by the end of this match Taker, and old ghost Taker come to a compromise, and fuse into one? Like Kami, and Piccolo did on DBZ. Then after this Undertaker will be portrayed by the younger Baron Corbin. BOOM... Pay this genius right now!
