GTV

Okay, Wrestlezone. I don't post often on these forums, but when I do, I avoid threads about bringing back the nWo, Horsemen, Corporation, Ministry, Corporate-Ministry, Nation of Domination, DX, Strike Force, Bushwhackers, ect. Today, I feel like I'm going against my nature and starting said styled thread.

If the WWE were to bring back some sort of element from previous eras into todays "Reality era", why not the unresolved GTV? For those unfamilair with GTV, it was a secret camera/tabloid show within Raw, seen here;

Val Venis, and the Big Show

Or with Terri Runnels/Meat/Chaz

Yes, back then it was what WWE would currently call obscene, but if they toned it down from tabloid to hidden camera while WWE is currently embracing the social media, how could the angle not succeed?

I ask you to entertain the thought of select GTV segments being made available on youtube, facebook, ect and at the same time be toned down with my following questions;

1) Could "GTV" segments help carry storylines?

2) Could the use of "GTV" through social media help WWE television

3) Would you call it "GTV", if for no other reason, to conclude a long defunct storyline?

4) Consider this a bonus question; If you were to book a "GTV" storyline, who would be the inevitable mastermind?


Bonus points for anyone who noticed the heavy bold quotations around Reality era.

...And they call you Big Show (ll) funniest GTV moment of all time. Yes I wish WWE would bring this back.GTV started mid card fueds and let people see some weird funny stuff back then or like Thursdays Impact when Sting showed the video of Hogan and Bischoff in collusion about the fake retirement that would have been or should have been seen on GTV.

Fenius Godwin stuffs the turkey. GTV
 
Wasn't GTV just a angle used to get Goldust back on TV before he decided to up and leave to WCW?

But yeah i guess something like this could work today if done right.
