[Hard Hit Prince]

Was ever an opportunity to turn Ricky Steamboat a "heel"? I know a lot of opinions from the greats, that seemingly believe that Steamboat could not play the role, but it's wrestling and the turn could have been made if Vince wanted to, so what would have been the most appropriated moment?

Cheers and I'll do the Starrcade cover probably Friday!

Ye, I wouldn't have really mind if they peacefully co-existed with WCW being where TNA is at the moment. Although, with the roster and the influence you could say it still has that WCW genome.

Here's a fun one, On SD last week, Christian Vs ADR right? And the fans start chanting "USA USA". This tickled my funny bone for obvious reasons but got me thinking. Either the USA chants are now a part of ADR's heel schtick or that ADR is finally becoming a good heel so much so that the fans don't even realize how stupid it is to chant that when the other guy in there is Canadian.

ADR gettin better at being heel? You have to admit ditching Ricardo was the right thing to do.

It wasn't pro-Christian, it was anti-Del Rio.

Yeah he needed to.

Nah not really.

KB-

Who was Pat O'Connor?

What's your thoughts on SummerSlam?

 

[klunderbunker]

Wrestler from New Zealand, was AWA and NWA World Champion for a long time back in the 60s.

Looks good on paper but it's a two match show, both of which should be awesome.

KB what is your current wrestling project?

 

[Pay Per Ghost]

Sooo that means ADR is finally doing it right. I mean he is being booked like schmuck and in turn the WHC is getting devalued further but ADR is finally doing the heel thing right eh?

 

[i'm a cm punk girl]

Do you see hhh turning heel sunday?
will HBK be apart of more than just the pre show?

 

[Dirk]

Hey, KB

What's that move called where Mysterio places himself in a wheelbarrow position, swings upwards, then bulldogs his opponent? (I'm not even sure it's a bulldog and not some reversed ddt).

Thanks.

How surprised are you that WWE has managed to keep things simple with Punk vs Brock and allow the David vs Goliath aspect to take centre stage in the physicality side of things and have Heyman be Heyman?

Was it too obvious to mess up?

Who will win at Summerslam?

Could we get three matches out of this feud with it culminating inside Hell in a Cell itself? Aside from an escalated Bryan/Cena/Orton/HHH/Vince feud, surely only Punk/Brock/Heyman has enough heat to have a match inside the Cell (not that it stops WWE from cramming matches into it)? Or would that be blowing too many of Lesnar's dates?

Would you say Raven was actually a good wrestler or just a good entertainer.

He never was doing it badly in the first place. He just wasn't interesting.

No.
Maybe a backstage bit.

I call it a sitout bulldog.

Yeah it pretty uch was and that's a good thing. I wasn't sure how the match was going to work but they've sold me oon it.

I think Brock but it's a tossup.

I think that's too many dates for him in a row.

Would you say Raven was actually a good wrestler or just a good entertainer.

More of the latter but he's good at both.

 

[Барбоса]

As you know, I had faith in the never-say-die character of Punk to challenge the monster Lesnar. I had less faith in Creative to allow it to just be that.

I think Brock but it's a tossup.

Another good thing. Obvious winners are fine if booked right but there is nothing much like a match that has been booked and sold well but you still do not know what is going to happen.

Up until Monday night, I would have been leaning more towards a Punk victory in a one off match. Now, with Punk having stood tall on RAW having proven that he can outwit Heyman and put down the Beast, I would be leaning more towards a Lesnar victory, perhaps tainted by Heyman interference, and a gimmick rematch down the line.

Would a Heyman-assisted victory look bad for Brock? Or is he largely free from being dragged down by such cheapish victories so long as he is booked like an animal throughout the match?

No doubt with a Lesnar victory, the morons will be out for blood claiming that Punk never wins against the big names - HHH, Rock, Taker and potentially Lesnar - and all the attendant nonsense, which will seemingly gloss over the faith that has been put in Punk just to get such a series of matches.

 

[klunderbunker]

No because the story here is Punk vs. Heyman. Lesnar is just a really big surrogate.

 

[cult_of_icecream_bar]

Every wrestler that John has faced since last year,every one has been using the 'You can't wrestle,you just have the machine backing you' story.Isn't it overused?Also was it the right catalyst in the Bryan-Cena feud?

 

[zac007]

What did you think of the movie the wrestler?

 

[The Fabulous Rougeau's]

Thinking back to the Farooq/Undertaker Title match at the 97 King of the Ring, I can't for the life of me remember how Farooq got that title shot. Do you have any idea how that went down?
