Craig H Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 Speaking of Jericho, I never saw the Jim Cornette Dairy Queen video until a couple days ago. Jericho was cracking me up on that video. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of Jerichos books are just tremendous. There's some belief out there that Jericho may have made this video up. It's never on Youtube, and if you go Googling it, you get a lot of message board discussions and NO ONE seems to have seen it except Jericho and there seems to be a growing feeling that it might be something Jericho made up/exaggerated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infinit Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 Holy shit...I'm doing a European trip this summer, and my first night on the other side of the pond is Saturday July 8th in London. Which happens to be the same night as the British J Cup. I wasn't planning on doing anything wrestling related, but I just might check it out.

Victator Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 6 hours ago, cwoy2j said: I agree. The reason it worked is b/c you actually believe that New Jack was a dangerous motherfucker. I was kinda thinking that it would be dangerous for him to cut those promos in the South but then I thought, "who would actually try that fucking guy?" I could see people getting worked up over his comments and then once they got close to doing it, thinking better of it once they saw him outside of the ring b/c New Jack isn't really playing a character. The build up to Undertaker coming in is very well done. New Jack is clearly scared but he does not over do it. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PetrolCB Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 Probably elsewhere. But, here's this... It's really strange to see the Undertaker fighting the Gangstas with JR on commentary. It's something I'd be used to experiencing in a 2K game. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piranesi Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Has there ever been another guy with as much promise as Kalisto who was shit on this much? Not shit on like "let's stooge him out in comedy segments" but just by having him not only be weak but basically a helpless child who exists to be bullied and tormented and is almost never seen unless someone is stuffing him into something or throwing him through something or actually making him hit himself while saying "I like to suck big dicks. MMMMmmmmm I can't get enough." Also has it ever helped anyone get over by beating him up? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirSmUgly Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 New Jack in SMW was great, but of course the trick was that it looked so sincere because New Jack was just cutting the type of promos that most black dudes would love to cut on the types of people who came to SMW shows in the first place. I bet at least half of all black dudes in this country have cut that type of promo while watching the news post-election. I think I cut a promo on par with New Jack in SMW just last week. That's not to discredit New Jack so much as it is to say that wrestling needs more people tapping into real-life, barely-simmering personal rage for their promos.

Godfrey Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Braun's going from facing the biggest guy in the company to the smallest. There's some poetry to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems logical but I would think Taker should induct him and they have never done something where somebody going in inducts someone the same night. Though X-Pac and Daniel Bryan would be good choices. Maybe Big Show, but I read once they did not get along well away from the ring. X-Pac for Kane is a good call. I could see someone like Steph doing it if they want to talk about all the work he has done backstage and the transition he has made from in ring to helping run the company. For Undertaker its either Michaels or Foley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sydneybrown Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Foley is an excellent choice, but I got to think if there was ever one man that Vince himself should induct, it should be The Undertaker. Vince gave Taker what in retrospect should be a year-long gimmick at best and Taker made it arguably the greatest character the WWE ever created. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brysynner Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Assuming Undertaker goes in the WWE Hall of Fame next year. Do you think Taker would stay in-character for his entire speech? I just can't imagine Taker in a tuxedo for an event he's never really attended or been a part of since it became a thing 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammo~! Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Maybe he splits the difference of in/out of character and Biker Taker accepts the award on behalf of The Deadman. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
