Thoughts on Dusty Rhodes?

 

[klunderbunker]

He could talk like few others ever could, but the matches just weren't there. As a booker, he got WAY too out there and he finally got fired for it, as he should have. In short, there's talent but he got in his own way too many times.

What's your opinion on Papa Shango?

Shango was planned to return in 1997 as a "more gritty, realistic version with a mask instead of paint." They got pretty far along with it too, as the costume and entrance gimmick were both made. However, the idea was nixed when Kane became a thing. Would it have been awesome or shite?

 

[klunderbunker]

I wouldn 't have been wild on it. The Attitude Era had some more realistic stuff and a voodoo guy would have been hard to accept.

 

[i'm a cm punk girl]

you think christopher daniels should be tna champ?
best original ecw match?

 

[klunderbunker]

Not likely.

Probably one with Storm or Lynn where the hardcore stuff didn't happen.

 

[i'm a cm punk girl]

kotr or mitb?
what are some feuds that didn't accomplish anything?

 

[klunderbunker]

KOTR

HHH vs. Nash for one. Everything wound up right back where they started, but Punk was a bit lower on the pole.

 

[Danger Burger]

How much do you feel specific wrestlers are the draw, at this point in time, rather than simply the WWE brand association? (Perhaps ignoring the declining viewership, or noting it, if you must.)

 

[klunderbunker]

Very little other than maybe Cena.

I've seen your show/PPV reviews and i'd say im impressed at the quality of them, but anyways, looking back, which is your favorite review?

 

[klunderbunker]

Uncensored 1996. Probably the only time I actually tried to make a review especially funny and it seems to have worked.

 

[The_Reptile_]

What's your favorite review of a show that was actually good?

 

[klunderbunker]

X7, as I basically get on my knees and suck it off as the greatest show ever, which it is.

 

[Mayonnaise Warrior]

Do you smell what the Rock is cooking?

 

[klunderbunker]

I do and it's making me want fish.

 

[Little Jerry Lawler]

You'd probably enjoy this question.

What are three moments in wrestling history you would like to have seen called by commentators of a different company? For example, JR and King when Hogan joined the nWo?

 

[Merwin]

i havent watched much wrestling but illl just ask you a general question.

how would you changr WWE diva's division if you had 1000% controll

 

[klunderbunker]

Almost any return called by Michael Cole. The guy sounds bored when people come back.

The problem is WWF almost always had the best commentators so it would almost always be them doing the other companies' stuff.

I guess JR and King doing Goldberg beating Hogan, Sting winning the title from Hogan and Shane McMahon coming out on Nitro. ANYBODY but Scott Hudson.

Either A, eliminate it, or B, stop trying to have wrestling. Either have T&A stuff or have wrestling. Very rarely can you pull off both and it's not working right now. Having 45 second matches doesn't get me interested in their feuds. It makes me want to run down and get another Coke because I can be back just as the bell rings. Also, having them dance around and do Stink Faces to other girls does nothing for me. Either have them be sex kittens in form fitting clothes or have them be serious wrestlers.

Cole had that stutter going when Kevin Nash appeared at Summerslam last year.

I think the only thing I like about JR is when people come back, he sells it like Jesus Christ appeared right in the middle of the ring.

What would be the worst call on a return you've ever seen? My money goes to when Christian came back in 2009. Grisham sounded so damn lifeless.

 

[klunderbunker]

Christian was the one that came to my mind. There's nothing there.

 

[Little Jerry Lawler]

I know that Christian wasn't a big deal when he left but damn. He hasn't been seen in about four years. You would have thought that a little more enthusiasm would have been shown but that's Grisham for you.

I read your Smackdown review the other day and I was surprised to see that you thought Del Rio was fun to watch in the ring. I didn't think you thought that which was pleasant. Does he frustrate you the most in terms of creative and not necessarily having anything to do with him himself? He's good in the ring and has the look of a superstar. They could do SO much more with him and it pisses me off that they don't do it. He's got cash. Do something with it. DiBiase did it. JBL didn't really do it, but he was sort of a different character.

 

[klunderbunker]

JBL bought and paid for people like the Bashams and Jillian and Jordan and some other chick (Amy Weber maybe?). Del Rio.....does nothing. It was Norcal or D-Man who said he's actually regressed as a character, which is something you don't often see. Whichever one said that is right.

 

[Little Jerry Lawler]

I just can't understand why the Del Rio/Orton feud kept going when Del Rio was losing every match. It's been forgotten but Del Rio made Orton tap three months but nobody ever brings that up. I don't know who he can feud with next. He's been through all the top faces in the past year.
