Sim Snuka. The push that could of happened..

instantkarmaVA

Is here for the punch and pie...
Pre wrestlemainia 25 Chris Jericho was attacking legends. One episode of RAW he has the old Piper's Pit stage set up and interviews Jimmy Snuka. We all know Chirs Jericho was gonna beat the shit out Superfly. Jericho delivered, of course, by dropping the Pit set on top of him. At that moment, Sim Snuka should of came out to defend his father from Chris's brutal attack. They could of set up a Jericho vs Sim Snuka match that night. I think they could of put on a good match. Chris could of gave Sim the rub by having Superfly interfering in the match somehow. Jericho doesn't look bad by losing. This would of added steam to his jihad against the legends. This ,also, would of greatly helped Sim Snuka. He wouldn't of ended up a fucking camera man in the HBK/Undertaker WM25 match. He could of used the win as a launching point for somewhat of a push. He could go to ecw and get more TV time. At least he'd get a second match where Jericho would of murdered him for beating him the week before on RAW
Would this work? Where would Sim Snuka be now? Back in Legacy maybe? Getting tv time? Or doing nothing at all...
 
Only problem being that Sim Snuka sucks, and you couldnt get a crowd to give a shit about him if he set himself on fire. So, no, it wouldnt work ,he wouldnt be in legacy, and he wouldnt be getting TV time.

He would be doing just as he is now, which is nothing, and nearly causing Undertaker to kill himself at WrestleMania.
 
I was actually expecting Sim to come out during the Jericho/Superfly thing but I don't think it would have worked. Sim Snuka is in no way ready to be in the upper mid-card and I really doubt he would be able to gain enough support to make it as a top face. I don't understand why they booted him from Legacy though. The group was much more interesting when they had a couple guys (Sim and Manu) who didn't just look like weaker versions of Orton. I just don't get what the point was to remove him from the group with nothing else planned for him. But then again, I don't understand most of the things WWE does.
 
Like NorCal said the only problem is that Sim Snuka sucks. There's nothing he could to in order to get a crowd interested in him or interested in whatever he was doing. He is as boring as boring can be and he has the charisma of a pin, wait no...scratch that, a pin has more charisma than him. He really has done nothing of importance other than winning the WWE Tag Team title, in a division that the company could care less about.

Another thing, Why should he get the "rub" when there's way more deserving people? In my opinion he hasn't proven that he deserves anyone's "rub", and until he proves himself then he is going to be nothing and he isn't going to get a push anytime soon.

I'd take Sim over Ted and Cody anyday. At least he had a personality as Deuce. I didn't get to see the "Sim Snuka" character enough to know if it worked or not but at least the guys proven he can play a character. I don't think I've ever even seen either member of Priceless change their expression. And I'm not being sarcastic...have they? Once?
 
He had a personality, sure, but it captivated a total of 6 people. He's uninteresting, has a boring look, has no special talent in the ring, and can't make you give him a second look. What is this missing push about? You can pick apart DiBiase and Rhodes, but that's not adding anything to Snuka's below average in-ring ability and failure to interest the crowd.
 
Failure to interest the crowd? We're in The Age of Orton, I thought that was a plus?

But anyway, the point is that they never gave Snuka a chance which is kind of puzzling when they're continuing to shove proven failures down our throats. I'm sure if Mark Henry was second generation, he'd be in Legacy.

Watch the replays. When Undertaker falls short, because of where HBK pushes snuka, you can see his hand catch takers head. So he probably saved him.

I've said this many times, this guy coulda been released a long time ago, so since he's not, they should do something with him. Everyone says he's boring in the Ring. Oh wow, because he wrestled all of like 3 matches on Raw? And his match with Mysterio wasn't bad. Give the guy a chance, hopefully they do something decent to see if hes got it.
 
There must be some reason Sim is still on the roster, when they released talented guys like Elijah Burke and Tyson Tomko in the last few months. It could be his last name, or maybe they actually are just waiting to pull the trigger on a full repackage. They just renamed him, and a TERRIBLE first name at that. Sim? Why couldn't he just use Jim Snuka Jr.?
 
i liked deuce and domino. i thought they were viscous and great when they first started, and then wwe killed their push. i thought they had potential. i am not sure about sim snuka on his own but i didn't think the botched spot at wm25 was his fault, however i am sure he will get the blame. i think he deserves a shot, but they should bring back domino and make them fued for the straps. have sim be the brian kendricks partner and win a match. then have domino come out after the match and then have deuce and domino destroy kendrick and say he is the only one worthy of being deuce's patrtner, then let them dominate the tag team division, and have him seek revenge on legacy. then they could beat cody rhodes up so bad that he will be forced to wear knee pads again, and quit talking with a lisp. that would be great tv. oh and on a side note i also like dolph zigler, he is super intense and exactly what the wwe needs to push. this is a character i have been waiting for for years.

I called it months ago i said that night that Sim Snuka was thrown out of Legacy by Orton because he lost a match or didnt get the pin that it was the begining of the end for Sim Snuka. Him and Manu became both ex members/rejects of Legacy. They could've became a fierce tag team and really made a name for themselves but they didnt. They might've had one match as a team and that is it. Now i think Manu is gone? And Sim Snuke is barely holding on (dressing up as a camera man for a spot at WrestleMania 25).
Agree Disagree? :twak:

I was hoping for Sim/Manu to go for tag belts, Cody the IC, and Randy the world title. I was also hoping Ted would come back as a face and get into Randy's shit. (But the stable holding all the belts has been used so many times with all the great stables of the years. )
We all know that never happened but I think Sim and Manu could of been a force. They could of been like a reboot of the Samoan Swat Team..Form a stable with Umaga while your at it...
