So now that we've had time to process it: Stardust. Yea or nay?

On Raw last night the commentators mentioned that it was the first stretcher match on Raw for 10 years at least half a dozen times. What was the last one, and exactly how long ago was it?

 

[klunderbunker]

I can live with it, as it's pretty certainly just a way to get to the split.

It hasn't even been nine years. Edge and Kane had one in 2005.

Will Cody Rhodes ever find a gimmick that sticks?

 

[klunderbunker]

Not likely, even though he has the same problems his brother had 20 years ago.

After seeing the crowd react strongly for Reigns and Rusev, do you think they could have a feud somewhere down the line?

After beating HHH at Summerslam, I think Rusev would be a good autumn feud for Reigns to see if he can carry a programme as a babyface. All they have to do is keep Rusev unbeaten and give him wins over slightly higher people over the summer like Dolph, RVD and Sheamus. Reigns would gain a lot more from finally being the one to beat him than Cena would, seeing that everyone is talking up that feud.

 

[klunderbunker]

I'd be fine with it.

If you were starting a promotion and could take the design of any title that you've seen and use it for your world title. Which would it be? Feel free to answer any other titles you'd like to have also. (The history of the title would have never happened meaning you can take the design of the cruiserweight title if it looks cool to you)

Attitude Era WWF Title.

 

[Thriller Ant]

Out of the major players in NXT (Zayn, Big Cass, Neville, Breeze, Ascension, Mojo, etc.), who do you think has the least chance of making it on the main roster?

 

[klunderbunker]

Cass at the moment.

 

[Fire Marshall Bill]

Not likely, even though he has the same problems his brother had 20 years ago.

I'm assuming you mean that he can't get over without any gimmick that isn't overly dramatic? I was actually coming here to ask you practically that same question. Considering his Dashing character, his masked character and now Stardust, his other periods where he was pretty normal are mostly forgettable with a dash of terrible in there.

Speaking of which, which Cody Rhodes gimmick is your favorite?

 

[klunderbunker]

Masked.

What's it going to take for the WWE to get away from hotshotting their booking?

 

[klunderbunker]

Bookers instead of writers.

 

[Bockwinkel's Class]

Bookers instead of writers.

Good point. Hotshotting is what I like to call "The cocaine of wrestling" ie it feels good at first but you can't stop and it eventually kills you. Unfortunately it seems that the odious legacy of Vince Russo lives on in the E

 

[The Fabulous Rougeau's]

As I am re watching 1997 WWF the next show up is the 3/10 Raw which was the beginning of the Raw is War era with the brand new intro and set design. I don't remember hearing anything on the previous shows talking about the forthcoming change. Do you remember if it was ever announced that these changes where taking place? Or was it a complete surprise?

Also, if times were so tough for WWF back than how were they able to up there production value so much? I would assume the changes they made on 3/10 and beyond were quite costly.

 

[klunderbunker]

It was a surprise.

They were but they were probably set up months earlier.

 

[Барбоса]

If it was not for the dropping of the ball on the Voice of the Voiceless Summer of Punk, would Bryan vs Authority or just Bryan in general have been embraced as whole-heartedly by large sections of the IWC?

 

[klunderbunker]

I doubt it, but it would have worked.

 

[Big Nick Dudley]

How about a Lesnar vs. Roman Reigns Summerslam main event? I actually dig the idea.

 

[Барбоса]

If it weren't for the presence of the Wyatts, could you see Bo Dallas' character becoming something of a cult leader?

He could start to gather the losers to him and turn them into BO-LIEVERS. COuld be a good way to give some of the lower card something to do.

 

[Alex]

Why do you reckon TNA have dropped the ball massively with Willow. I get the impression Hardy really wanted to go really out there with the character but TNA seem to have cocked that up.

Risky but it could work.

Indeed. Not a bad idea at all.

They said it was Jeff Hardy. After that it was basically him in a Halloween costume.
