[The Showstopper]

What was your initial reaction when Booker T changed his gimmick to King Booker?
And how good/bad would you say the move was once everything was said and done?

 

[klunderbunker]

It was fine. he needed something new.

It was a good thing. It gave him a WWE Title instead of having to hear him talk about WCW all the time.

If Bobby Lashley were to return to WWE how would he fit in with Lesnar? Could they run some sort of MMA angle with him and Lesnar? Would he be good for it?

 

[Uncle Sam]

I'm looking forward to this.

 

[klunderbunker]

I'd hope not. I wouldn't be interested in it at least.

 

[Aeon Mathix]

So has Cena been THE guy longer than anyone else? No one comes to mind

 

[klunderbunker]

Hogan was from 83 to about 92-93.

If Cena and Lesnar work a long program, will they change the AA back to the F-U?

 

[Kermit]

Has a gimmick of this type ever been done or do you think that it could ever work:

The superstar starts out as a referee. Maybe larger in size than most other referees. He works and integrates himself as part of the common referee staff, but he is strong and bumps don't work on him. He hardly ever gets knocked down by heels and he pushes back whenever heels get into his face. Later on he does something that pisses a heel off, and it brings him out of his ref job to fight to fight the man. He wins the match and goes on to be a part-time ref and fighter, or just a fighter in general.

I know that the first part sounds similar to what Hebner use to do, but has someone ever transitioned into a wrestling role out of it?

 

[IHW]

I don't know if this has been answered and i sure don't want to go through 629 pages so...

Why doesn't the US Title count towards a Triple Crown or Grand Slam?

Not as long as Linda is a Senate candidate.

They did something similar in TNA with Shane Sewell which went nowhere.

It's not an original title in the triple crown/Grand Slam.

 

[Uncle Sam]

Is John Cena a triple crown or grand slam winner? Does it matter if you are one?

Officially he's not but I've always considered the US TItle to count. Same with the Smackdown title. They're interchangeable so what difference does it make?

 

[Uncle Sam]

I ask if it matters because I just had a flashback - Vietnam style - to last year's WrestleZone Tournament. People were arguing that Jericho should win because he's won more (i.e. a greater variety of) titles than Cena. I said that just shows how a title count is not an accurate measurement of how successful someone is. Jericho's won countless intercontinental titles and so on, spending much of his career bouncing around the midcard, but Cena's spent most of his career holding either of the world titles.

 

[Martin Gabriel]

Are you going to get Bryan's new "Yes! Yes! Yes!" T-shirt?

 

[CleverName51]

Has anyone ever held EVERY title the WWE offered? Light Heavyweight/WWE Crusierweight, European, Tag titles, US and IC, WWE and WHC?


I think Edge or Jeff Hardy did, but I could be wrong

 

[Uncle Sam]

You forget the ECW title. Christian and CM Punk also have pretty impressive collections. I still don't think title count is proportional to success.

Yeah to me what Cena has done is more impressive. Otherwise someone like Raven would be on Cena's level for winning 26 hardcore titles.

No.

Jeff never held the US and Edge never held the Light Heavyweight.

 

[Hologram]

Am I wrong in thinking that Daniel Bryan was really uninteresting as a face and that hes much better as an asshole heel?

 

[klunderbunker]

Nah. I tend to agree.

 

[Martin Gabriel]

Would you like to see Ric Flair return to WWE?

 

[klunderbunker]

Not really. if he does, NOT as a wrestler.

 

[Martin Gabriel]

What you like to see Paul Heyman return and be Brock Lesnar's manager again?

 

[klunderbunker]

No. No need for it at all.

 

[Martin Gabriel]

How pumped are you for Raw this coming Monday?
