They can hope all they want. It's not going to happen for a long time.

I think it would be stupid & pointless to try it again when we all know TNA can't win.

 

[Martin Gabriel]

I read a report last night that said Vince was furious over Orton's reactions to his WWE suspension and because of that there is now talk that Orton will not be brought back to the company at all following his 60 day benching.

What do you think of that?

 

[klunderbunker]

That it's really not as bad as Vince is making it out to be.

 

[MrHashasheen]

Goldberg, Rhino or Adam Bomb?

 

[klunderbunker]

Goldberg.

 

[Martin Gabriel]

Jericho vs. Orton was scheduled to be apart of the NWO card, but since they are both suspended it won't be taking place. Do you think their match would have added some much needed depth to this lacking card?

 

[klunderbunker]

Yeah of course it would have.

 

[Da Prophet]

Following Starrcade 97 how long should it have been until the nWo was destroyed? Also what happens to Nash and Hall post nWo?

 

[FunKay the Inevitable]

Concerning elevation in WWE, who do you think are three candidates to be pushed (or re-pushed)?

Three months or so.

Just have them become a regular tag team. Maybe have them be like Scot Steiner was in TNA and not let it go that the group is gone.

Miz
Ziggler
Ryback

Who do you think is the most attractive TNA Knockout and WWE Diva right now?

 

[MrHashasheen]

All right, here's a booking sort of question, which I know you hate.

Let's say you're the booker for WCW in 1997, and you've got this huge stud called Bill Goldberg. He's green as shit, but he's got a great look and glimmers of real potential in the ring. Now, ignoring the IRL streak push he got, would you have introduce him any differently? Put him in a tag-team with a veteran to cover his deficiencies, booked him as a bodyguard and had him work dark matches for a year, etc...

 

[Little Jerry Lawler]

Do you think HHH was a victim of his own success after Austin and Rock left?

Mickie

Nope. Use him the way you used him. The problem wasn't the Streak. It was how the Streak ended.

To an extent yeah.

What do you think WWE should do with Kofi right now?

 

[klunderbunker]

Kofi is a weird case. Actually I like him where he is. If they're flat out not going to make him a main event guy (which I'm ok with), there's nothing wrong with him being the guy you bring out to have a guaranteed above average match. Tito Santana a very long career doing just that.

Bobby Eaton and Brad Armstrong had very long careers doing that.

Agreed, but I'd think this is as perfect of a time as any to give him a bit of a push and see if he'll stick. Not only is R-Truth injured, but the WWE's upper card is pretty shallow. Kofi could be a solid addition, if only for the time being.

That would be fine too. Orton being gone would be a good sign for Kofi as it was pretty much Orton that stopped his push dead.

That still annoys me. I thought Kofi was REALLY good in that feud.

 

[klunderbunker]

He was. I watched the MSG Raw where he did the Boom Drop on Orton and it still works remarkably well.

 

[The Crock]

There was more character development for Kofi in that one feud, than there has been in the rest of his WWE career. He was intense, he showed charisma, and he had a dynamic character. I was convinced he'd be a main stay in that upper midcard/main event level, in a Chris Jericho type of role. Hopefully, if he does get a chance right now, he can rise back up to that level.

 

[Little Jerry Lawler]

To an extent yeah.

Over the past few weeks, I've been thinking about HHH's reign from 2003-2005 and I've almost come to the conclusion that I can't blame him. Faces have historically been the face of the WWE and once Austin and Rock left, who was their biggest face? I didn't think HHH was that good of a face in 2002 so maybe they could have kept him face longer.

 

[klunderbunker]

There was a simple solution in 2003: put the title on Booker, RVD or move Benoit over to Raw and put it on him. Even if it was just for a month or two it would have worked wonders for the company and Raw in particular.

 

[Little Jerry Lawler]

I wouldn't have minded that. HHH/Nash was more about personal stuff than the title and it would have helped a guy like Jericho immensely as he was always going to be the second heel behind HHH.
