odessasteps Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 I just remember when they gimmicked his guitar as a rib and when he spun it around, he gave himself a black eye.
Jenalysis Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 So with Johnny Mundo dissing Reigns and Rikishi pointing out Roman has already done more than Johnny has career to career, people are saying "Boo Roman Mundo is real wrestler" on Rikishi's Facebook. Now. Morrison is so clearly a spot guy who can be carried by the right dude and only even puts full effort half the time. But looking back, I can't even peg what matches got him labelled as a smark superworker. Some of the Punk ones, Sheamus, and what? Where did the myth of Johnny Mundo: Superworker come from? Because as it is I can think of more great Roman matches from last year than from Mundo's whole career. For me it was the Miz/Morrison team, though you could argue Miz carried that. Just thought they were really, really good together and if it was a better time they would have been a longtime team. 1
joseph2112 Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 Morrison had a string of good matches in '09 with guys like Rey, Jericho, Bourne, and Edge to go along with the Punk ones. So pretty much 100% working with better wrestlers then. I guess questionably on 09 Edge, but still. The counter here is that I can't really think of any good to great carry jobs by Roman either.
Matt D Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 Was there a Roman/Braun singles match? or Roman/Rowen? if so, how were they?
kafkonia Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 I don't think Morrison/Mundo/Nitro is some sort of great superworker. But I think it's fair to say that, at this point, he connected with the fans far better. 2
The Nature Boy Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 At the end of the day, wrestling is about connecting with the fans, John Morrison has done that and Roman largely hasn't. Morrison is better at "pro wrestling" than Roman.
Patrick B. Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 So basically two guys are arguing about who's a better fake fighter.
The Nature Boy Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 I mean, we are a pro wrestling message board. Discussing the relative talent of the participants is expected. It's like joining an acting forum and complaining about people discussing who is the better "fake superhero."
joseph2112 Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 Ummmm....... http://deathvalleydriver.com/forum/index.php?/forum/41-tournament-time/ 2
Matt D Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 I think the issue would be more along the lines of if Dean Cain was having a hissy fit about Ben Affleck.
Patrick B. Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 Was referring more to the original issue, though it was more a case of Morrison and Rikishi arguing about who's the better fake fighter between Morrison and Roman Reigns.
Matt D Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 I feel like Ben Affleck somehow still works as Rikishi too.
The Nature Boy Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 I feel like Ben Affleck somehow still works as Rikishi too. "Why did you do Gigli?" "I did it for Matt Damon, I did it for the people." 1
Burgundy LaRue Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 Was there a Roman/Braun singles match? or Roman/Rowen? if so, how were they? Roman/Braun happened back in October. The first half of it was pretty bad, though Reigns seemed to manage a little something toward the end. It was certainly nothing to write home about.
Cristobal Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 I think the issue would be more along the lines of if Dean Cain was having a hissy fit about Ben Affleck. You think this exact thing doesn't happen with actors? Trust me, it does. Right now, an actor or actress whose name you know is bitching about another actor or actress whose name you also know being a talentless hack.
Patrick B. Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 I imagine it happens in all walks of life, particularly in show business. With show business comes some degree of ego that you deserve an audience for what you do.
Ramsey Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 It happens in radio and v/o constantly. Not so much between guys in the same building but past that, all bets are off. Bastards...
Bustronaut Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 It happens in radio and v/o constantly. Not so much between guys in the same building but past that, all bets are off. Bastards... Talk to the technical people
Jenalysis Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 Flip the spots- how would Morrison do in Roman's superpushed spot, and how would Reigns be as a mega-dick in LU fighting Cage? Somehow I think both of them would be better in the other's job for some reason.
Ace Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 Speedball Mike Bailey cancelled off the Evolve shows last weekend due to "transportation problems". Turns out he got caught at the border and is supposedly now banned from the US for 5 years. So he got hit with the same thing the Super Smash Bros. got. Uno's only recently been able to return.
Technico Support Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 Can somebody explain to me how difficult it is for Canadian wrestlers to enter the US and work legally? Is it just one of those things where it's pretty much impossible, due to the temporary nature of the employment? If not, I can't figure out why guys would risk losing 5 years of their careers like that.
J.H. Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 Lance Storm also is donating his brain... ...but only if the analysis is done by other wrestlers, since no one else has the right to judge Lance's brain. ...they found damage to one quarter of his brain, but the rest was 3/4 legit. James
