THE WRESTLING THREAD: HHH KEEPS DOING HHH THINGS.....

Batista was hitting his stride as a heel right before he left, with the whole "spotlight" shit he was doing. he was verbally killing Cena every week

Damn really? I didn't think it really hurt him much though I will say he was a corny ass heel. Probably was due to that pg rating.

I wonder why the WWE is afraid of a dominant heel? When's the last time we seen one? I missed the WWE-TNN era so I don't know how dominant Stone Cold was as a heel but damn one thing that's missing is a dominant heel in the WWE.

Hell yeah.

You made me think, Austin never was protrayed as a dominant heel except during the brief time he teamed with HHH. When he first went the "Stone Cold" route, he lost all the time to Bret and Undertaker. Then when he was leader of the Alliance, he couldn't handle Kurt Angle.
The only dominant heels the WWWF/WWF/WWE has ever produced where Yokozuna, Taker, and HHH. Even guys like Shawn Michaels and Randy Savage looked weak as heels.
I would throw in Randy Orton for a short time during the Legacy run.
They just don't do strong heels in that company as a practice. This current era is just the worst ever as far as making top heels.

He killed cena with the "kissing babies & hugging fat girls" line which was/is funny to this day.

Their house shows are some of the most well reviewed, fan friendly house shows of any company. Even if the card doesn't look spectacular on paper, the action is usually pretty good and they let the guys work. Not to mention, the many, many opportunities they give to meet wrestlers up close and get memorabilia signed for free. The last house show I went to they had the usual $20 picture with the main event face (in this case RVD with Jeff Hardy) with most of the roster taking pictures and signing autographs for free at ringside, while in the lobby Jeff Jarrett had a loooooonnnnnggg line of people for his free autograph signing.
 
John Cena issued the following comments about The Rock on Twitter yesterday:

"CeNation. Watched rocks interview back just to make sure. I never ran my mouth about rock. He refers to an article published in the uk sun in 2008. Please..read it. Then u decide. Ill be at wwe live events this week in baton rouge,alexandria,college station. And I will come to raw for bizzness. Final knockout this monday on raw. HUSTLE. LOYALTY. RESPECT."

When did he land the first knockout? I guess it's time for a recycled "abandonment" promo or a rehearsed "freestyle" promo.
 
I have tons of respect for Rock and I'm not a big Cena fan at all, but you do have to give credit where credit is due. After Mania, The Rock will disappear again and Cena will still be trying to grind it out and win over more people. It pains me to say this but, Cena has earned my respect for actually showing his love for the industry and the art form of Pro-Wrestling. I know The Rock has bigger fish to fry but he's sounding like a politician talking about how he's back for good, etc., etc. They should've just been honest with it and told people he was gonna be around just to whoop Cena's ass in Mania 27 and be out. The writers are making The Rock look flaky as hell and maybe that's the whole slant to this, to try and make people realize Cena is there for the long haul and see if they can win some more people over. This is a huge push to Cena's career when you really try to figure out why they decided on this route to make The Rock look wishy-washy.

Okay i have to say this because i've been hearing this too much, the rock is not coming back for good he retired years ago. I have no idea why people thought he was returning full time, he's going to make special appearances again like he was doing in 04-05. The wwe let his contract run out in 05 and that's when he stopped showing up, he's not obligated to do anything so all this is him "giving back" something he's been criticized for not doing.

Cena can talk all he wants about being loyal but let me put it like this, Him saying he'll never leave is like me saying "you have my word i will never fuck halle berry" but trust me if i ever got the opportunity i would jump in a minute. Rock showed his love for 7 years and was able to get out like all wrestlers try to do. It will be a sad sight seeing cena at 40 years old wearing jorts and purple t-shirts but i guess that just means he's loyal right?

In Cena's defense though I don't know how much of a leash he has in his promo's but that rap he did last week was the most explicit shit i've heard him say in 2 years. The Rock is saying "ass" and "bitch" and Cena one week said "ass" and got fined for it. Or said he did. Not sure if he was joking by that or actually serious. But that PG shit has made Cena corny. Some say you can still have a quality program by having pg but man I can't even imagine a pg Stone Cold or Rock. I don't even know what the fuck that shit would sound like and i'm glad I don't.

Explicit or not it still came off as corny. Him having to practice his voice before he rapped and then suddenly trying to sound street when he's been on some Dora the Explorer kiddie shit the last few years.

I have several and they're great. Kamala and 2 Cold Scorpio are classic. It's hard to even get a copy of Brickhouse Brown's.

Wasn't 2 cold talking about fucking d-von's girl or some shit like that? The diva ones are easy to get and they kind of revolve around them being bitches, like torrie talking about sable and of all people sara (taker's ex) being jealous of her and you can tell torrie is the type of person who wouldn't scream even if she was on fire. How was the outsiders shoot because that's probably the first one i'll get.

2 Cold talked more about drugs, whooping RW Hawk's ass, and Ric Flair getting him fired because his wife saw "Scorp Dog" in a speedo.
I really only have interest in the ones from well traveled vets who aren't afraid of burning bridges, so no divas.
Haven't checked out the Outsiders yet. Since they're always into something, I'll wait til they're really retired.

I preferred Hawk because he was the better talker but the Scorpio story has been around a while and I was :lol: to hear Scorpio tell it.
 
I always preferred Hawk over Animal as well. Animal, even in their prime, tended to blow up much sooner than Hawk.
