Do you believe Vince Russo is slightly better than what most people give him credit for?

 

[klunderbunker]

Yeah. When he's on and has a filter, he's awesome. The problem is people remember the horrible stuff way more than the good.

 

[therockiswwf]

Relating to McMahon being a great filter to Russo, was he really that good at filtering? 1999 was abysmal.

 

[klunderbunker]

From a wrestling standpoint yes. From a business standpoint, it was brilliance. Somewhere that ends though, and it stopped when it was getting WAY too insane.

 

[i'm a cm punk girl]

How much do you think the YES chant plays apart in Bryan's popularity?

 

[klunderbunker]

About 87% of it.

 

[Theo Mays]

How awful is CJ Parker?

 

[klunderbunker]

He's not awful but there's nothing impressive about him at all.

 

[Thriller Ant]

Is it just me, or is there nothing that special about Corey Graves?

 

[#MrScissorsKick]

Who are your three favorite deceased wrestlers?

Remember in mid-summer to fall in RAW 2003 with Teddy Long and Rodney Mack's White Boy Challenge? LOLL How dumb was that?

Well he looks a bit like Punk you see so therefore he's awesome.

Savage, Benoit, Andre

Much like a lot of other stuff in 2003, very dumb.

I was just reading your Final Resolution '09 review. How made would Desmond Wolfe have been after that match if Hogan and Co. didn't show up in a couple weeks?

Could Damien Sandow (sans beard) be the lovechild of Paul E Dangerously?

Quite. The guy has that it factor that you can't teach.

Not really.

Have you noticed the Punk smarks are very quiet right now?

 

[klunderbunker]

Not really, as they're mostly also bryan smarks.

 

[cult_of_icecream_bar]

^ Also because Punk has been in a high profile storyline for months?

 

[klunderbunker]

Yeah probably.

 

[The Fabulous Rougeau's]

Do you have any idea/knowledge as to which WrestleMania was most influenced by wrestlers politicking?

If so, any idea what the card would have been vs what it turned out to be?

 

[klunderbunker]

If you consider Montreal to be politicking, then 14, which was supposed to see Austin beat Bret for the title.

If not then 13 which was supposed to be Bret beating Shawn for the title to get his win back with Austin probably facing Vader or Sid.

Something that has come to my attention:

WWE's product "style" is basically entertainment>wrestling. Their roster style has a gimmicky and more cartoonish theme.

TNA is a mixture, and their roster style is more "serious-like" and less emphasis on a gimmick.

ECW's was a "fuck-it" hardcore style.

What was WCW's?

 

[klunderbunker]

It's mainly like TNA's but at the end it became a copy of ECW and WWF. Back in the 80s though it was probably closer to ROH with some WWF mixed in.

Are you referring to their roster theme or their product?

 

[klunderbunker]

Product. Back in the 80s the stories were the background to set up the matches. It wasn't unheard of for every match on a card to get 15-20 minutes.

 

[Cereal Killer]

Ok, but what about their roster's theme?
