why didnt you say all this to art?

he got you pegged with how you go str8 to playing to the crowd & focusing on stigmas the moment youre about to argue with someone that isnt easy to get over. i call you out on this all the time. glad to see im not the only one.

respond to art with a smiley and fallback because he "types too much". STIGMA and typical coli.

I'll say it to Art like I said it to you... ain't nobody scared of a post, what's he gonna do, cap me to death? :heh:

I don't know about typical Coli... I said what I said and I meant it. And to no surprise you would co-sign the other guy who's always proppin' up mediocre shyt.

and youre still typing at me, when im not even in this.

all you had for the guy you were arguing with is a smiley. we're still waiting on the content.
hell, im still waiting on the content from the curt hennig argument i had with you in the taker thread.

and nah, @DANJ!, i wasnt neccessarily agreeing with mr perfect being nominated. it was moreso hogan's politics that dropped him down, as opposed to the wwf. they wanted the belt on him.

i was just referencing the similar argument we had over hennig in that undertaker thread.

Ron Killings aka Mr Truth should have never left TNA. Yes he got a better paycheck but had he stayed in TNA he would have been a multiple champion and would be in the discussion of most entertaining wrestlers ever.

Monty Brown aka Marcus Cor Von left TNA for WWE and was never really the same. I know his sister passed and he walked away but part of me believes that once he went to WWE that he lost a passion for his craft. Great worker in TNA who was misused in WWE.


they were good moves at first.

killings was turning down wwf deals for years. he had to leave eventually cuz TNA wasnt doing chit with him. he shouldve been wwe champion tho. instead, they used him as a miz sidekick. smfh. now hes shuckin-n-jivin worse than new day. he might as well join them dudes. aint he the one that got creed hired?

if TNA wouldve put the belt on monty brown when he was red hot, instead of jarrett hoggin it, he proabably wouldve stayed. the wwf didnt get the chance to drop the ball on him, cuz he left so early. so i cant put him up there with the bad moves, but it seems like his peak was going to be stealing lashley's shine while jobbing to him.

-Mistico coming into the WWE, when he was considered one of the biggest draws in Mexico history and completely flopping and not adjusting to the WWE.
-The Muhammed Hassan "terrorist" angle on Undertaker. Was a legit surreal and crazy moment, but the London Bombing in 05 happened the same time as the angle and the WWE had to get rid of the Muhammed Hassan character. :lupe: I always remembered hearing that he was supposed to win the Heavyweight title from Batista at Summerslam 05 in DC too.
-:francis: Goldberg deciding to punch the limo window and got hurt for 6 months during the peak of his career, than coming back as a heel, but WCW was already bottoming out.
-Jake Roberts leaving the WWF in 92 as a potential top guy going forward with Hogan soon to be out of the WWF for good, along with Macho Man winding down, and Warrior getting deavored for sticking Vince at Summerslam 92 because he didn't get Patterson's spot as a booker.
-Verne Gagne not giving Hulk Hogan the AWA belt in 1983 before he bounced to the WWF. Hogan as AWA champ, while still on ESPN being practically seen as the biggest star in wrestling going national, while Vince would have probably gone with Jimmy Snuka to be propelled as the top guy of the WWF, which wouldn't have worked like Hogan more than likely.
-Dixie Carter choosing Hogan/Bischoff over Paul Heyman to run TNA.
-Ken Kennedy saying he doesn't do steroids than getting caught soon after in 07.
-Dr. Death getting waxed by Bart Gunn in the Brawl For All. It was set up for Dr. Death to win it all after JR hyped him up for years, only for his boy to get KO'd by Bart Gunn. The word was that they wanted to build it up to a program with Steve Austin vs Dr. Death supposedly.

rvd was never gonna be the face of the company.

he got it cuz they were in the midst of re-launching ecw.

they were probably going to have him give cena his belt back at the next ppv, and move on as ecw champ.
lol people really thought they were going to give RVD a major push.. They didn't even push him in 02-03 when he was the hottest guy in the company, they were never going to give him a long title run in 06 when they were still in the beginning of RAW is Cena

He was always going to drop the title to Cena relatively soon

So when edge gets the crowd to turn on him u can make fun of him
Rock got turned on by the crowd and is forced to turn hollywood for a gimmick hes genius though right?
When he got booed going against brock lesnar at a ppv?

Aint that the same shyt?
it's the rock tho.. we already know that crowd as an aberration

Edge wasn't getting any reactions until the Matt Hardy incident

his entire career is the worst career move. when i got back into wrestling in 2009 people would always talk about how Kennedy was THE MAN and a future WWE Champ and how he had soooo much potential....He was on the shelf at the time i think...so i hadnt even seen him work yet.....then they started airing vignettes about his return...

he made that return vs Orton i believe....and we all know you CAN NOT fukk up in a match with Randy Orton...Kennedy was :camby: like 2 days later...truly a bizarre moment...

and fast forward to today and his career is as good as done. he coulda retired the day he got fired from WWE and been in a better position today.

He will forever be known for

This reaction...chop blocked Batista and the crowd went SILENT on his ass:laugh: WTF:laugh: Edge got booed HARD AS fukk at 6:25....dude saying he got cheered. What the HELL is that kid talking about? Just lying and wasting everyone's time for no reason. This match was why he turned heel two months later. To save face....40 secnds later, "WE WANT Christian" chants. Man get the fukk outta here with this Edge pity party $hit:laugh: Heavy boos Edge at 8 minutes. lol.
"Toronto's Own" got cheered...thats about it. It was pretty much crickets until the announcer threw that in for the cheap hometown pop

Thats def way different than a few years later when "You Think You Know Me" would elicit a massive pop before he even walked out from the curtain..

watching that 04 summerslam vid is so cringe..look at this guy...his gimmick was so stupid to me for the longest time.. he's the definition of a B player like Steph would say. and if he was booked as such I probably wouldnt hate him so much today.

Can any career move be worse than Candido quitting the WWF and going to ECW and then Sunny following him. Chris needed surgery when he quit and they wanted him to be Rock's trainer and take time away from the ring. They would've paid for his surgery and he'd have a guaranteed pay check every week. Instead he believes Paul E's bullshyt and brings Tammy soon after. Both became a part of ECW's drug problem and neither got paid. In fact Sunny had to lend money to Paul E and never got it back. It was all downhill from there, working crappy indie shows for no pay and constant drug issues and then Chris dies right after he cleans up.Now she has to do porn at 43 just to pay the rent. Can you believe she was able to buy a house when she was only 23 years when she worked for Vince and Co.


you crazy.

bad move for sunny, sure.

but it was a great move for candido. he went to ecw and had a crazy run. and he joined the triple threat - one of the best stables ever. his wcw run was dope too.
why would you want him to go out as a trainer? especially after having that taebo gimmick. yuck.

i seriously doubt the sytch's drug problems started in ecw.

His worst career move was getting misdiagnosed on his triceps injury which wasn't his fault. He said in a recent interview that he was supposed to cash in his MITB briefcase against the Undertaker. That would have changed the entire direction of his career.

His best work was 2008 and before.
