I like Paige: her look, the Rampaige, her entrance theme and she was a great General Manager. Best wishes.

AxB Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 There haven't been many cases where a regular tag team's sons have then formed a regular tag team, have there? Like Gory Guerrero & El Santo as the Atomic Pair led to Eddie Guerrero and El Hijo Del Santo as the New Atomic Pair, but that was a short term thing to build to Eddie's heel turn. If you expand it to kayfabe families, maybe. But there's no storyline Anderson family tree, is there? They're all just Andersons, and Flair is a cousin. Are Hook and Colby Corino the only good ECW kids? Because D-Von's twins seem to have not taken off at all, and Twisted Sand Tyler Fullington has made even less of an impact on the business.

I had thought Bradshaw was his son, then when I looked it up, he was simply a kayfabed uncle so that's on me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zendragon Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 I'm a little surprised that we never got Disco Inferno in WWE either during the invasion or a bit later like a lot of WCW guys. Seems like the kinda of stupid shit Vince loves in an undercard act, and Glen Gillberty always had enough size and physique that I could see vince being sold on him 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure he said there had been tentative talks but he wasn’t interested (possible BS), as he preferred to work a lighter schedule for decent money. Disco was always fun in WCW, his feud / team with Alex Wright was great undercard stuff. His last Impact run was also a real highlight. I try to not let his Twitter trolling cloud my judgement, but it’s exceptionally difficult. He can be insufferable. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zendragon Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 He's claimed that he was gonna get the Rockabilly gimmick that went to Billy Gunn, JR has said he doesn't remember if that was true. He was on Jericho's podcast a while back he talked about the need for getting for a gimmick which I think is something lost on many of the super worker types in the indies over the last several years 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peck Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 WWE released Cole Karter/Troy "Two Dimes" Donovan three months after signing him. According to Meltz, it's a "policy issue" and they may bring him back in a year. Feel free to recklessly speculate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 I thought the supposed policy was six months? He is also in the middle of story. His partner also seem to be any better in the ring or as a character so it would be weird to only release one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nofuture Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 I seem to interrupt "policy issue" as more breaking some sort of rule rather than not meeting some 6 month performance review. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onelegbrynn Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 Not sure about this one but it seems weird. I really liked the six-man tag from In Your House last weekend and Tony D’s group seemed to be figured in with the whole Legado del Fantasma storyline. It’ll be interesting to see how they explain this away on TV this week. I agree with @nofuturethough, I interpret this as some sort of rule being broken. Then again, it is WWE we’re talking about so they kind of make up the rules as they go along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
