I thought that was my job, with the name being in bold and all
And my job is to keep those with bold names and no underlining in check.
I've always loved Steiner's promos.
His promos are what makes guys like him and Warrior have a bad name. There's no development to his character or anything like that. It's just ramble ramble ramble freaks and peaks ramble ramble ramble mafia ramble ramble ramble. He's in his own little world and while he was having great matches, that was fine. he doesn't do taht anymore and it's not fine.
To my knowledge, he hasn't ever hurt anyone seriously in the ring, and he's been pretty good lately. His moves don't look forced, and he's faced guys that have sold it pretty well.
Except for the time when he botchesd the belly to belly on AJ and nearly broke his neck. Or all the times he's gone stiff on people. Or all the times it looks like he's no selling other people's moves and makes them look weak. yeah other than those times he's great.
The belly to belly has looked good the last few times he's used it, and against someone like Morgan (who can sell it), what's the risk?
First off, all wrestlers can sell, at least in theory. That's one of the first rules of being a wrestler. That's like saying a guy can breathe properly. Second, in other words, you're saying that since Steiner hasn't botched a move that he uses a lot RECENTLY, it's ok to put one of your best young guns in there and risk making him look bad or injure him because a guy that won't retire and can't do more than three moves safely MIGHT get the move right because he's been on a hot streak lately with it? That makes sense.
I'm all for the return of the Steiner Recliner.
Yes let's bring back the deadly sit on their back and flex your arms so it looks like you're doing something when in reality it's the stupidest looking finisher in the world because you don't do it right and are lazy as hell in the ring.
...which is why a feud with someone like Steiner would work...It would show he can carry a feud, and let him showcase his abilities until a title shot comes along.
It's also a great way to risk Morgan looking awful when Stierin, Scott's evil twin from the universe of my computer is messing up, is blown to hell 3 minutes into a match and Morgan, a guy with limited experience in that kind of environment, has to carry him. Check out Rumble and No Way Out 03. HHH couldn't carry Steiner to a decent match. Hell he couldn't carry him to a bad match, but you think Morgan can, after 5 years of Steiner somehow getting worse?
Putting Morgan against someone smaller is all they've done (since starting the push). Angle is smaller, and like you said, working with Angle means absolutely nothing, since Angle can put anyone over, and make anyone look good.
And he had the best period of his career. Now he's hanging out with Hernandez, a stronger guy, and Morgan is rapidly being forgotten on the card. He's gone from main eventing shows to now being thrown into a worthless tag match as his power means nothing now that he's with SuperMex, who is more powerful and better as a power wrestler. What would happen with Steiner, who is somehow more one dimensional than Hernandez?
If he can hang with someone as powerful as him, or stronger, it would give him a chance to come back from beatings, cut promos with a master ( I said it...), and work in something more than random tag matches until they feel like finishing off his push, for better or worse.
Or the feud could be a complete and utter disaster that makes Morgan look awful and runs his career into the ground and completes the near downward spiral he's in now.
