Occasional Pre-Show
Now full disclosure I was a huge mark for the moment when the ECW guys turned around in the middle of the ring and beat up Kane. But even I am not enough of a mark to have thought the invasion angle worked. However the angle was missing a huge part of what could have been:HHH. Now of course everyone knows that he is the wife of the WWE princess but he would have brought much more rather than a big WWE star. He would have brought a face that could not only do the speaking but would make the alliance seem so much more feared. You add a guy who has been a main star for the company and also a leader of one of the biggest stables in history to a group of "mid-card" guys, now we have something. You would not then need to force Austin into the situation where he then turns on the WWE, when he was only in ECW for a cup of coffee and a tour of philadelphia. He wasn't ECW or WCW enough to have turned. Jericho maybe, but Austin? NO. HHH is believable strictly based on his wife and that is more than enough. You put out there HHH,RVD,Booker T, DDP and Rhino and now you have a team that looks like they have a chance of winning if not dominating. But HHH was hurt, and you had a bunch of guys who were either nobodies in WWE ala Justin Credible & Dreamer or were guys who were never in the WWE ala Sandman & Lance storm trying to take down the rock, angle, undertaker, etc. Doomed from the beginning.
What do you think? Would HHH have made that invasion angle a success? Or was it doomed form the beginning?
