KB Answers Wrestling Questions

The most overrated and underrated match of the last decade then.

Jericho vs. Michaels in the ladder match is pretty overrated. I never thought it was that much.

Underrated...hmm. I say this a lot but i'll go with HHH vs. Taker at X7. It's a great match and you just don't hear about it that much.
 
What do you mean by overused?
Pushed in spite over an overwhelming number of reasons why he shouldn't have been.

Could be a midcarder who they tried and tried with but were never going to make work. However, I'm thinking the answer will lie more along the lines of a frequent headliner who really didn't deserve his stature in the company.

Not that I'm thinking of anyone in particular.
 
I thought you would say Undertaker vs HHH. I watched it today and it was pretty good imo. A great build up to the match to if I remember correctly as I really wanted Taker to beat HHH. The best storyline/angle in the past decade.
 
I love a good KB rant. The storyline was set up perfectly for Booker T to win and they blew it. I thought Booker's career would have really taken off from there.
 
Ok as for over/underused:

I'll go with Taker as overused. Other than Mania, it's not like he's been worth anything most of the rest of the year. His biker years were BRUTAL from an in ring perspective. It's either him or Billy Gunn. For the life of me I do not get the appeal of this guy.

Underused: Taz. Vince flat out did not get what the point of this guy was and didn't use him at all.

I reserve the right to change these answers later.

He was literally nothing more than a piece of ass when I got into wrestling(1996)
Seemed like his ass was always out.
 
What are your thoughts on talent that's push quick like Sheamus and Barrett?

I like it. I like seeing guys get launched into the top spots all of a sudden. Sometimes you just don't need to come up through the system. Barrett and Sheamus came in, they made an impact, and they've been successes so far.
 
I agree some people say it's too soon and they're unproven yet they turn around and complain about the lack of fresh faces in the main event scene. If you got it then you should be pushed to show that and Sheamus and Barrett have shown just that.

Do you think Rikishi should have been the one that was revealed as the guy who ran over Austin, if not then who?

No. Just a total failure if there ever has been one. At the end of the day there had to be a match with Austin and Rikishi and naturally hee couldn't do anything with the fat ass, making the match suck.
 
KB...I'd like ur thoughts on this too since I asked coco and got a good reply from him. Tell me your honest thoughts, would you rather have a mark-out announcer that really does buy into the history and has enthusiasm behind him calling matches, like Striker, or would you rather have the plain 'stick to the script person, vkm yelling in your ear-bud' announcer, ::cough:: Cole ::cough:: who really seems like they could care less anymore what they are doing, and seem to be going through the motions without caring about possible history they are seeing maybe being made on a given night?

The first easily. Look at professional sports commentators. Some of the best parts about games and moments are the announcing. You often remember that more than you remember the wrestling. Joey Styles nearly ruined Barely Legal for me by just saying what was going on over and over. Wrestling isn't radio. You don't need to paint a picture for us. Give us a reason to care and have some fun with it.

I knew I liked u for something KB!! :p I think King and Cole are just jealous of the announcer who makes people WANT to tune in and remember where they were when Kofi did the boom drop at the MITB PPV onto the Spanish Announcer table. Hehe.
