For Great Justice Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 You have to make editorial changes to the timeline in order to make it work, but WCW is also Pearce Anyway I’m at least 80 percent sure Vince has made Prichard and Dunn play Boar on the Floor 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirSmUgly Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 34 minutes ago, John from Cincinnati said: The sale to GoJo is about to go off the rails, so WWE and Succession will deviate soon enough. I want to see mustache Vince stand on boxes. Nah, Roman's going to break with his sibs to get GoJo through. The previews make it look like Siobh Shiv and Kendall are going to do a massive team-up with Stewie et al., though, so if that happens, I look forward to Hunter and Steph using their Endeavor payouts to purchase half of AEW.

I am legitimately surprised no writer in WWE who happens to watch boxing hasn't come up with idea of having a babyface Mexican wrestler come out to "El Rey" like Canelo and Juan Manuel Marquez have done in the past. That shit is the Mexican "Sweet Caroline". Now that I think about it, maybe it's best it never happened. This probably would have transpired. "Sir, we own the rights to El Rey now." "Good...never liked the Mysterio name anyway. Also, tell his kid that he is now "El Dom"." ".....Okay." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally forgot Justin Gaethje did it just last year for UFC 274 in Phoenix (same night Canelo lost to Dmitry Bivol weirdly enough) during Cinco de Mayo weekend . He was the babyface cause even though he's white (editor's note: His mother is at least of Mexican descent) he's from Arizona and obviously picked the best song for that occasion. If you're going to pander, that's how you do it. Edit: Okay, now it makes sense: 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ka-to Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 If WWE shareholders hold 49% of this merged company, how much and who has Endeavor actually paid? I can't figure it out from what I have read so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobra Commander Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 (edited) so, will this merger mean that Jeremy Piven returns to Raw in full Ari Gold character? plus Piven has had sexual assault accusations in the last 5 years so that makes him more likely to be in the new Vince era. edit: fortunately for Dominik, he got over in Judgment Day before they could make Dom into Turtle from Entourage.

I remember reading in Foley's first book that he'd structured certain parts of the first Boiler Room match to be like the fight scene in Cape Fear, so that's the immediate example jumping out at me. I know you weren't looking for gimmicks as answers, but it's hard not to think of things like Razor being Tony Montana, Sting being The Crow, Kane using aspects of Jason Voorhees' presentation (especially early on, like the head tilt thing) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirSmUgly Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 Look, I'll give Vince credit for rolling with the Errol Flynn look and just having confidence in it. I guess if I improbably made billions of dollars because of familial connections instead of languishing away pumping gas in Kill Devil Hills or wherever for the rest of my life, I'd think I could pull off anything, too. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
