Actually a lot of people like McIntyre. Sheamus is ok, but does not have as many fans as McIntyre does.

I think McIntyre could be good in the future. Now he is ok, and he needs to improve on the mic and in the ring a bit more.

Swagger was getting hot in ECW, Kofi was hot coming off the Orton angle, Borne was way over before they jobbed him out.

I have no idea what they see in Sheamus, or especially McIntyre. Why they got the spots they did instead of someone like Swagger, who is a thousand times better than either of them, is mind boggling.

Which is crazy, because the lisp can be used to their advantage.

Swagger has unique heel charisma. McIntyre reminds me of one of those generic create-a-wrestler templates on a video game.

Sheamus is a giant albino hoss that works out with Trips, hell...he even manscapes his beard like Trips...How could McMahon NOt push him!?

 

[Kuzzy Powers]

People like Drew McIntyre? Who? Name one.

I hear nothing....literally....nothing, when he comes out. People barely give enough a shit to boo. Forget a babyface not getting cheers, getting heel heat is about the single easiest fucking thing there is to do, and neither Sheamus or McIntyre get any. Unless, like I said, the other guy they are involved with is John Cena, John Morrison, or Triple H.

There's no heat, there's legit "i fucking hate you" ala Michael Cole heat, and then there's typical pro wrestling heat. I don't see any of these new guys that Vince is so hard for, getting much of any of the aforementioned varieties.

Do you?

Sheamus does not struggle to draw heat. The kids that watch wrestling these days dont know about the so called "Michael Cole heat line". They just disllike Sheamus, period.

Rey covers his daughter's ears once Punk starts singing her 'Happy Birthday.'


Their bout at WM should indeed be awesome.

So I was watching Sting v. Hogan Starrcade '97, and it got me thinking:

What do you see could be TNA's "Sting-Hogan"? What I mean by that is what feud could you forsee them doing with the roster they have currently that could be a huge hit and be a great, original storyline?

Already happened....Joe/Angle.

Too bad it seems like decades ago.

BTW, whatever happened to Joe?

Watched Wrestlemania 7 on 24/7...very underrated show. A LOT of fluff on the show (Demolition burial, Taker's first WM, Quake over Valentine, Von Erich, The Mountie, LOD and Perfect/Bossman) but some solid stuff, too.

The opening tag between the Rockers & Barbarian/Haku was great.

Bulldog/Warlord was a nice big man match.

The Nasty's tag title win was a solid tag team match. Hart Foundation dropped the belts and Bret began his singles push a few months later (Summer Slam).

Virgil's first match and while he was rough, he had a lot of athleticism and crowd support. Crazy how they built that whole angle for probably 4 years before this payoff (granted, Virgil went nowhere but it was fun).

Hogan/Slaughter was surprisingly fun. A nice Hogan brawl and the crowd was hot.

The match of the show was Savage/Warrior without a doubt. Best on the show.

Fun match. Both men gave everything. Savage nailed 5 top rope elbows but Warrior kicked out. Warrior spoke to his hands and nailed Savage with 3 shoulder tackles, pinning him with a foot on his chest.

Kind of buried Savage with that but I guess they figured he really wouldn't be back so why not put Warrior over in such a big way (little did they know Warrior would be gone at Summer Slam).

Then the big post-match angle with Elizabeth saving Savage from Sherri. Off the top of my head, probably the 3rd big turn at Wrestlemania (Bret @ WM4, Andre @ WM6).

 

[IamMedellin]

I havent watched that in years, that was the 1st Rockers Match I ever saw at the time

Stone Cold on Raw...and no stunners? WTF is this bullshit?!

Austin drinking Carona's tonight is an epic fail.

[LiquidLarry2GhostWF]

Austin drinking Coronas was funny. RIP Steveweisers. Austin did look in amazing shape though...damn...'roids are helluva drugs...

Now, SMH @ TNA. When was the last time Vince had a brand new guy come over from another company, and in their first match, fight the champion AND BEAT THEM?

Vince takes TNA crossovers, sticks'em on ECW and as curtain jerkers on Smackdown...TNA has WWE crossovers beat their homegrown champion rather cleanly in their first match.
