piranesi 15,917 Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 "You get a big reaction from a crowd like that in Abu Dhabi and I wonder how do these people in Abu Dhabi know who I am? and then I remember that tuna cans float and that all my short stories and poems that I scratched onto tuna can lids with my fingernails probably made their way here over, like, the sea or something. And I wonder if any of the merpeople tampered with them. Like, do these Abu Dhabi guys know my real poems or only the ones that the merpeople have messed with. I really need be careful, you know. They might think I only write tuna can lid poems about, like, making out with merpeople. And really I only wrote a few like that. Most of my poetry is not about sex with sea monsters. A lot of it is just asking for stuff, mostly more tuna." PIRANESI, GO! 12 Link to post Share on other sites
Big Fresh 4,553 Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 - WWE Intercontinental Champion Bad News Barrett told Sky Sports this week that he stopped delivering his "I'm afraid I've got some bad news..." promos because WWE officials told him to as fans were joining in on the promos and cheering him. Barrett teased picking back up on the bad news after WrestleMania. Fuckin assholes. Link to post Share on other sites

Stupid internet marks.You had the Front Row, Sction D guys in the Carolinas and the Center Stage crowd cheering Flair and the Horsemen and the MX.And before that, the popularity of Billy Graham and the rejection of Bob Backlund as WWWF champ in the North east Link to post Share on other sites
twiztor 1,306 Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 in the attitude era, everyone had a catchphrase. the crowd went wild chanting along with it. in current times, if anyone starts to get a catchphrase over, they are told to stop using it. Link to post Share on other sites
Casey 8,714 Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Scott Steiner was banned from the HOF last night. Apparently there was a picture of him at the security desk. "GIMMIE A FUCKIN' MIC!" 3 Link to post Share on other sites
Go2Sleep 1,492 Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 in the attitude era, everyone had a catchphrase. the crowd went wild chanting along with it. "Hey Road Dogg, we're gonna need you to stop doing that thing in your intro, that's not the reaction we want..." "Hey Rock, we're scrapping your promo time, you're getting the wrong kind of heat..." "Hey Austin, we want you to cut down the 3:16 stuff, the fans are catching on..." You'd think they'd learn after 20 years that fans will chant along with any catchphrase. If they don't want that reaction don't give heels catchphrases, pretty simple. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

The Nature Boy 1,845 Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 If we could just get college basketball fans to chant "I'M AFRAID WE GOT SOME BAD NEWS!" then maybe something would happen......... It seemed to work for Daniel Bryan! Link to post Share on other sites
Phantom Lord 1,678 Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 We're sorry Wade, but you're not the one we want getting over. I bet if Roman had that catch phrase Vince would have it on every piece of merchandise he could think of. I DON'T GET IT. ITS GREAT BUT NO ONES CHANTING IT WITH YOU. Link to post Share on other sites

Eivion 4,131 Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 What the hell is the point of wrestlers (or "superstars") if you don't want them to get over? They want them over. Its more that they don't want heels getting cheered which with today's' audience an over catchphrase would likely lead to happening. I can sort of understand though it is dumb.

Jiji 12,603 Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Yeah, dude, it totally worked for Cesaro. So much heat in the last year. (I know what you're saying and I'm not criticizing you, just WWE - a truly groundbreaking act on this here message board and internets). 1 Link to post Share on other sites
ebbie 826 Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Barrett also said that people wanting to steal the show and don't care if they want are losers. But then again, he was getting more over than the people he was facing because he was fucking happy to be there. I know this place likes to bust their nuts over hossy minorities, but Big E was terrible last year. RVD couldn't got away fast enough and 9 out of ten times Wade faces Sheamus, Wade is going to lose.

Spritenaut 32 4,590 Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 and 9 out of ten times Wade faces Sheamus, Wade is going to lose. That's ridiculous. Wade would never lose to Sheamus 9 matches out of 10. He'd get injured after the third match and sit at home for the rest of the year, forcing the company to rebook matches 4-10. Sheamus would then beat Fandango seven times in a row. 9 Link to post Share on other sites
