I’m telling you, just get back to back to back ads of King Cobra Malt Liquor, and Crown Royale. “King Cobra! Don’t let the smooth taste fool you.”

I mean "Crown Royale presents The Crown Jewel , live from Saudi Arabia", does write itself.

What is surprising to me about Fox Smackdown is the sameyness of it all. The deal was announced over a year ago. Plenty of money has been thrown around (Fury, Velazquez, and a rumored Punk) and yet it feels like they put lipstick on a pig. The tired format is the same.

It’s really hard to book a two hour show. You need 3 hours, and an overrun to make sense of it all.

Problem: Your weekly TV shows should not be as long as your major shows/PPVs.

WWE's solution: Make PPVs even longer! Six-hour WrestleManias sound good! Let's go for it! Throw some pre-show on top of our three-hour shows! That should work!

NBC had a lot to do with the improved presentation of the company in the '80s, post-SNME. I take it from this thread that Fox is not exactly NBC in this regard.

No offense to Peter Gabriel, and his marks. Prior to Phil Collins beautiful vocals, and pulse pounding drums, you could say any name you want, and anybody would believe you. That’s how unmemorable he was as lead singer. If you could call what he was doing back then as “singing”.

Spoiler

 

Who could pull off Phil Collins' gear the best out of the current crop of wrestlers?
 
The hood would help to differentiate the generic 'bald guy with beard' look of a lot of WWE guys...maybe Ricochet? 

Although with the H(e)art motif, Teddy could adopt it as one of his more understated looks.

Shorty Gable of course. Seriously his trunks are currently too plain for his new name.
