Its an amazing story though and I love talking about it like it was a work. In 2002, my then-partner and I considered writing a book called The Montreal Hoax. And even though we knew it was a shoot, we'd write a book claiming it was a work. Because it really is fascinating. The only work aspect is that Vince became a heel character but as I recall it wasnt because of Montreal. It was at the urging of Vince Russo later. Vince played the classic Mr McMahon style heel character years earlier on USWA TV doing an angle with Jerry Lawler. There are clips on youtube.

Goalie Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 With all the sexual harassment stuff in the news... Maybe Chris shouldnt have said that but i dont see the big deal. I know..

Atomic Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 It's not sexual harassment in the slightest. It's not a stretch to assume that many young women on a cruise will be wearing bikinis. It's not sexual harassment to use sexuality to sell a product. And it is certainly not "dictating what women should or shouldn't wear." The responding tweet is pure stupidity. sweep the leg and SPuDS 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its what happens when someone immediately thinks its objectifying without actually thinking. The big thing I was hearing from people about the cruise was that it would be all guys. So Jericho is trying to clear that up and being funny. I generally wear a swimsuit on the pool deck. Its sort of factual. Maybe he should tweet that there will also be a lot of wrestling T-Shirts and business casual restaurant attire SPuDS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Unknown Poster Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 Poor James Quote After he was written off television last week, WWE announced that they've released James Ellsworth today. Also, any of who had bought tickets or were interested in the local Winnipeg show with Santino, Ken Anderson, Eugene, Gangrel, the show (and Thunder Bay & Thompson shows) was cancelled last night.

Taynted_Fayth Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 Gotta say releasing James Ellsworth is way too long overdue. Can't think of a worse all around character in recent memory. I know there's been some duds in the past but I gotta think some of the bookers in the back have like a running joke/bet they can get any loser over ... iirc he was in one of the title picture initially when he came to SD, or was trying to have a feud with John Cena Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was booked as a comedy figure, not a serious contender. Initially when they used him it was as an "extra" and he got the gig getting squashed by Stroman but his unique look made for good comedy. Funny thing, he had a t shirt when he first appeared which was essentially a joke but I guess he's a nice guy so a bunch of the other guys wore his shirt and he sold a bunch. Living the dream!

Atomic Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 Ellsworth served his purpose. Good on him for accomplishing far more than anyone could have ever imagined. But yeah it was time for him to go. However if he doesn't make a surprise appearance some time in the future (Royal Rumble entrant?), I'll be pretty shocked. I don't think we've seen the last of him.

Other than WWE having more guys than they know what to do with already for the Rumble, that's an excellent idea. Perhaps he is a surprise in the first ever women's Royal Rumble...which would be pretty funny. Goalie and Atomic 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unknown Poster Posted November 17, 2017 Report Share Posted November 17, 2017 Quote WWE performer David Otunga and longtime fiance Jennifer Hudson have split up and Hudson has filed a protective order against the former wrestler. Hudson's publicists told People Magazine on Thursday that the two have been in the process of ending their relationship and she filed a protective order against him earlier in the day. The two had been a couple for nearly 10 years. Tracy M. Rizzo, Otunga's attorney, countered to People, claiming Hudson is making up a story in order to gain custody of the couple's eight-year-old son, David Otunga Jr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpeedFlex27 Posted November 17, 2017 Report Share Posted November 17, 2017 Triple H has always been accused of putting himself ahead of the younger talent. This time, when it came to Jason Jordan, glad to see it. So did the fans with "Thank you Hunter" chants when he took JJ's spot on the Raw Survival Series team & pedigreed the kid. Hopefully the push is over for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I definitely don't think Gable deserves a push, he is far too ugly, but I don't get why Jordan ever got one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I definitely don't think Gable deserves a push, he is far too ugly, but I don't get why Jordan ever got one. Well, I don't know about ugliness but both guys need another 10 years of work to put in before they can even be considered top guys in WWE. Or in the business. They are talented but they're young. It took about 10 years for Sean Michaels to reach the pinnacle & he went through the AWA & then WWE in order to do it. He was just another athletic pretty boy for a long time. Until the day he shocked wrestling fans by turning heel & throwing his tag team partner Marty Jannetty through a mirror. By then, he had learned his craft & was ready to become "The Show Stopper" even though it still was a few years more until he won the World Heavyweight Championship belt. Look how long it took Samoa Joe just to make it to the WWE or AJ Styles. They went out & made a name for themselves years before before they got to the WWE. No one gave them any push. Gable isn't getting a huge push other than working with Shelton Benjamin but Jordan still has to earn the respect of their peers & the fans which hasn't happened. You'd think that WWE would have learned from the artificial push they gave Reigns after the negative fan reaction. He's being cheered again as a member of The Shield.

The Unknown Poster Posted November 18, 2017 Report Share Posted November 18, 2017 They thought Jordan needed the Angle rub more than Gable. Felt Gable had more charisma and would be okay on his own. Plus Jordan has more physical tools. But I don’t think they screwed up. I think it’s part of a larger angle. Jordan could be a great heel when he inevitably turns. That whining promo begging his dad to keep him in the match, no way was that meant to be a baby face promo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
