Will D Lo Brown Wear Championship Gold Once Again?

[kenchoe]

A question that's been on my mind since his triumphant return.

I like the fact that they're putting him in (relatively) high-profile matches against Santino, although I wished that he was on last week.

Easily one of the better in-ring talents, I feel like it's only a matter of time before we see him don the "10 pounds of gold" around his waist. The IC title looks probable, but do I dare to dream and say that one day, D Lo will realise his destiny, and become the World's Heavyweight Champion?

 

[Dead Kennedy]

I don't think D-Lo will amass anything other than maybe 1-2 Intercontinental Championship reigns during his stint, if that. He doesn't have the same intensity he used to have, nor does he look comfortable at where he's at right now. He just seems out of place in an already cluttered Raw roster.

I think he'd have been better off on SmackDown, as a Shelton/D-Lo feud would be excellent. And he could have easily become a fixture of ECW. He was way better before, but he can still throw a good match now, but not the kind I see in the main event/upper midcard of Raw.

 

[My$terio_Fan]

I can see Brown holding the Intercontinental title but not the heavyweight. DLo is a solid in-ring performer but most WWE fans dont know who he is. They really need to build on his character so the fans get to know him more. Right now he's just in random matches with Santino, they should let him cut some promos(he was always decent on the mic for wat I remember) and start a storyline instead of being a filler. But I guess it's too early to tell, but he seems bland right now but if written properly he could be a top midcard face.

 

[Showtime]

I gotta agree with Hardcore Kennedy here. Back in 98/99, D'LO was one of my favourite middlecard wrestlers and was one of a small group of wrestlers to hold two singles titles at the same time. I'm happy he's back and being used, but I do think he would've been betteroff on ECW making it more legit or Smackdown, feuding wth Shelton/MVP. Also, D'LO needs to start spicin up his character. Don't get me wrong, I love his enthusiasum, his matches and that he doesn't talk much But when was the last time you heard him on the mic? Guy needs to speak once in a while. Now I think he may have a chance for one more IC/Us run, but I'm not holding my breath. WWE is looking to the future, and D'Lo unfortunatly may be one of those characters that challenges the cocky heel midcard champions, but losses, and gives the midcard heels a challenge, or face reverse and he's the heel trying to push around the young face. Either way, no on the World title, maybe on the IC. I do still wish him the best and that he does get many IC title reigns, but...i don't think so

 

[D.I.S 202]

I doubt the WWE will put the intercontinental title on D-Lo Brown any time soon since the landscape has really changed since the last time he wrestled five years ago. For one he's on the Raw roster and I think Kofi Kingston, Lance Cade, and even Rhodes or Dibiase will all hold the IC title before the WWE decides to pull the trigger on a D-Lo title reign since they are pushing new talent. I think he should have been on the ECW brand since many guys in his situation are instantly contenders for the ECW title instead of being on a crowded mid-card scene on Raw or Smackdown and being forgotten about. I agree he should change his gimmick to freshen him up again like other guys who came back after a long hiatus so he can convince the creative to give him a shot as champion.

 

[AnthonyMango/NoFate007]

No.

I sincerely doubt that D-Lo will even receive a midcard title because he doesn't have any momentum going behind him. He isn't a newcomer that the audience is excited about seeing as a champion, but he isn't such a popular veteran that the fans are begging for him to be at the peak for one more round.

Right now, his best bet would be for IC champion, but Kofi is doing well enough that they won't be choosing Brown over Kingston. I say the best bet for D-Lo is to get into the tag team division if he wants to have any sort of gold before he retires. That would be the best place for him. It not only gives him a title (one that doesn't step over the younger guys that would benefit more from it) but it helps out the tag team division and it also would help out some younger guy that he's teamed with.

Other than a tag title? I doubt he'll be winning any belts. Bigger fish to fry.

 

[wrestlebomb89]

i doubt d-lo brown is going to get shit.he pretty much is in the washed up wwe stars who found there way back to wwe. we already saw what hapened with chuck palumbo on smackdown.i completely expect him to be used as a jobber or some kind of low carded of sorts.no titles for d-lo brown.i see a release after 3-8 months.

 

[Monkey_Mania]

I would have to say it is possible. He could become Intercontinental Champion again. It's not so unlikely. Who do they really have fighting for it? Kofi? Santino? Possibly Lance Cade? They could use another face in that division. But it wouldnt last for long and he would probably get saddled into a tag team. Then compete for the titles, possibly grab some gold before he eventually gets released again. There is no way he will become World Champ. So while it is possible in the Intercontinental and Tag scene, I wouldnt say it would last all that long.

 

[TheOneBigWill]

The short and to the point answer is saying Anything is possible and the way to point that out, is by looking at the current Intercontinental Champion. Simply put, Santino was a failure as an Intercontinental Champion the first time around.. and mic work alone won't keep him as anything more than that same failure now, yet he's once again wearing gold.. and it's staying there for at least a week.

With that said, D-Lo definately has a chance if nothing else to win the title from him in the future, then drop it a night later, or a month later. I don't think D-Lo will become a Champion ever again, short of being a Tag Team Champion in a very pitiful and weakened division. But outside of that, he's just too old and isn't over nor are they (the company) planning on suddenly moon pushing this guy as anything more than someone note-worthy from the past.

 

[The Mark of Zur-En-Arrh]

If Ric Flair and Roddy Piper can win the tag titles at 60, then i think D'lo Brown should be given some sort of title run. If the crowd get behind him like they used to in the late 90's then i think WWE would be inclined to push him further. A D'lo Santino fued makes sense, but it looks like Kofi is going to fued with Santino as Kofi was never pinned for his title, and that'll be the basis of their fued.

 

[Shawn"HBK"Michaels 92]

Why wasnt D-Lo Brown's return advertised? Unlike Ron Killings?

Maybe if he had a little hype coming into the WWE Ring again he'd be a bit closer to an IC Title? His Pop would be a little larger and thats always a good thing. But seriously? D-Lo Brown as intercontinental Champion? I kinda hope not. I thought the Intercontinental title was supposed to have prestige? I cant see anyone on the Raw Roster that i would consider a worthy champion anymore except Dibiase.. I was hoping Lance Cade would have it by now but he is lost in this Jericho/HBK fued... Kingston was doin ok but i wouldnt have called him a worth champion, hence my shock when he def. Y2J... I'd rather Y2J still be holding the gold, even if he is never defending it... i know that the IC title is under him now but id still prefer it.. He should just given it to Cade,.. that wouldve give Cade Heaps of heat!!!!!!!!

Anyways.. now im off track..

D-Lo brown was a pretty popular guy back in the day but i never thought he was the greatest wrestler ever.. He was nothing special in my opinion. I think the most he'll ever be remembered for was getting the stone cold stunner on the top of the pick up truck... D-Lo is yet to impress me... I hope he doesnt get the Intercontinental title because Santino Is The Future. HAHAHA
But Seriously... if he were to win an Tag Title, who would it be with??? Rey Mysterio??? There's no one?? The Tag Titles on Raw are a joke now too...

D-Lo will never be world champion...
Sorry D-Lo..........

 

[Shawn"HBK"Michaels 92]

I think Kofi Kingston, Lance Cade, and even Rhodes or Dibiase will all hold the IC title before the WWE decides to pull the trigger on a D-Lo title reign since they are pushing new talent. I think he should have been on the ECW brand since many guys in his situation are instantly contenders for the ECW title instead of being on a crowded mid-card scene on Raw or Smackdown and being forgotten about. .

I completely agree... D-Lo would do much better on ECW and i think he'd have a much better chance of getting gold on ECW too, or at least a title match. He has no momentum on Raw but he'd be even more lost on SmackDown, especially with The much awaited Ron Killings in action soon...
I think he'd be lucky to even recieve a title match soon let alone a title run...

--I can really see Dibiase as the IC Champion, hope he gets it once Santino has a long run--

 

[Joaquim Akaem]

I gotta say this response has shocked me a little bit. I thaught D-Lo Brown would be getting more love than this.

He looking good as of late, very comfortable in the ring, happy to be out there doing what he does. Nothing bad can be said about his performance and he's getting a reasonable pop to say he's someone relativly unknown to most fans.

If he is to get anywhere in this company this second time round, I suggest he finds his way to a microphone, and quickly. He needs an angle or a gimmick to work from if people are gonna start caring about his matches, otherwise he'll just be the guy who turns up wrestles and leaves, producing nothing memorable and eventually be forgotten and released. He can start with at the very least a backstage interview.

I was kinda hoping that WWE would hurry up with creating faction wars again, if that happens, D-Lo can find Ron Simmons, hook up with Mark Hendry and reform N.O.D, and this time theres plenty of young talented superstars that can get a good push from it, and thats including D-Lo and Henry. I suppose this comes back to the point of why Brown should have returned to ECW.

Back to the original point, its entirely possible that D-Lo will have gold again, Worlds heavyweight is a bit too ambitious, but if given a half-decent angle, Brown will have no problem carrying a title belt for a month or two.

 

[OIL]

Hmm. I can see him winning the Intercontinental Title again, because he's a proven champion with that belt and he is very solid in the ring. His gimmick is fine and mic work, I can't remember but i'm sure it's not that bad. With that being said, he would need a better push than he is getting at the moment as he wasn't seen in 2 weeks until last night.

With regards to him winning either the WWE Title or the WHC, it could happen. I know he is seen as a mid-carder and that at best, but I just see it happening before he retires because it would be a nice way to end his carrer. A big championship win. If CM Punk can win the WHC when people LEAST expected it, then D-Lo Brown can win the main title on his respective show. He has everything you would look for in a champion, but again, mic work I can't speak on as I haven't heard him for a long time.

 

[Starchild]

I don't think D-Lo will ever get a world title run other than maybe the ECW title if he goes over there, but let's face it..that's just a midcard title anyway. No, he may get an IC or U.S. title run and hopefully get a few good feuds in there with Shelton, Hardys or someone, but that's all. He is a solid worker though, and even though he does seem a bit outdated to be in WWE I am happy to see him back and hope he gets a decent little push during this stint

 

[timostag]

I like D'lo and think he should get a chance a a mid-card title but he shouldn't automatically get a shot just because he has come back, these titles should be used to highlight talent of young up and coming guys like kofi to see what the are capable of.

I would like to see d'lo form a new tag team god knows wwe needs more tag teams

 

[Mr. TM]

No, he won't last more than 8 months. He wont compete for the Intercontinental Championship anytime soon, despite feuding with Santino, that belt is Santino's. He will not form a tag team. Who would team with him? Pick one character in the WWE that could compete while tagged with D'Lo Brown. The belts are Priceless's. There is no European Championship now, and that was D'Lo's title. He should be over on ECW where he could actually compete for the ECW Championship. Mark Henry (His old Partner), Matt Hary and D'Lo brown would be a half decent main event every once in a while. Its better that what they have going on over there. D'Lo would be a great face on ECW.

 

["Cool Guy" Jensen]

I was really happy when I found out that D-Lo Brown re-signed with WWE, but since then he's done nothing to solidify himself of a main-event player on RAW. In his first stint in WWE he won the European Champion 4 times and a former Intercontinental Champion. If D-Lo were to win atleast one more title in his current stint in WWE, it would have to be the Intercontinental Championship. The only problem is that I don't see who on RAW he's can have a good feud with over the title, if he were to win it sometime soon. The only I can see that happen is if Santino or some other IC Champion needs a person to defend it, D-Lo receives a push by winning a #1 contenders battle royal or something and goes on to win the Intercontinental Championship.

As for the World Heavyweight Championship, I don't see D-Lo winning it BY A LONG SHOT!!!

 

[Jack's_smirking_revenge]

I think that D-Lo should win gold but in due time. I'm not sure if he should get an IC title run, but I think he should be paired with someone and get a tag team title run. Or maybe join the CTC stable, have Cena as the WHC contender, Cryme Tyme as the tag contenders and have D-Lo make a run at the IC. But I think that D-Lo should be a piece towards the rebuilding of the tag team division, that is in desperate of teams. I mean any teams are needed unless we want Priceless vs Cryme Tyme for the next 4 years...

 

[Superstar4Life]

D'Lo Brown will Championship Gold very soon. I really do believe it will be against him and Kofi, and that will be a big test for the both of them because it will test Kofi's abilities against the vet D'Lo, and test D'Lo abilities against one of the younger and quicker superstars. It will be a great battle between the two, because, just as D'Lo is bigger he can be quick like the younger guys if he puts his mind to it. I see D'Lo as the heel if it happens, because Kofi smiles way too much to heel, unless unleashes an incredible heel out of no where...lol. But all an all D'Lo will carry championship gold again.

I also can see him as a contender for the heavyweight championhsip, but it is going to take alot of work on D'Lo's part in order for that happen, but it will be interesting if WWE gives him the chance and he actually does well with it which I think he will.

But only time will tell for D'Lo...

But on the flipside if he lives RAW and goes anywhere else...I can see him shining heavily on Smackdown.

 

[Big Sexy]

I definately think that D'Lo will win a title. I don't think that he'll ever win the Heavyweight title, but I could definately see him winning the ic title. RAW doesn't have that many good mid-carders so it makes sense that D'Lo will win the ic title sooner rather then later.
