Apparently the goal of superstars this week is to make sure the young talent knows its place. So far we have Kane pinning punk in a tag match and Edge beating Kofi.

Hopefully they both get to show enough that it isn't a total loss.

I think it was his Nirvanna based theme song.

I don't really have a problem with Edge beating Kofi.

Because Edge is awesome.

Me either, a loss going into the PPV wouldn't make sense.

My question is more about why they were in a match in the first place.

Well it's nice to see Larry Zybyzko find a job.

chiefscafan · 04-21-2009, 06:46 PM

yeah ddp did have an awesome finisher but he got the push because he was bischoffs friend.

agreed mecca about developing what I meant was what you said besides steve austin

bishoff was awesome at developing allready great talent. While Vince at that time was all about the big steroid muscular wrestlers missing out on guys like Jericho and Mysterio but later seeing them work out in wcw and stealing them.

I also agree the other day I sat at coffee bean and watched all the old NWO videos on u tube.

ONe of my favorites was when nash picked up a diving rey and used him as a spear and threw him into the tv truck classic.

the other one was classic scott hall when buff joined NWO and took out scott riggs and Nash said "Either you join us or.."
gave the mic to Hall and he said "Or you get punked"

those were the days nothing has come close to the enjoyment of the NWO early beatings of the WCW. Thats when wrestling was cool.

Mecca · 04-21-2009, 06:48 PM

WCW never really made those guys stars. They gave them a national american tv audience and let them do their thing but once they got to a certain level they never moved.

Jericho left because he couldn't move any more because WCWs pecking order was even stronger than the WWE one one of today.

chiefscafan · 04-21-2009, 07:16 PM

but there were some great talents with WCW in those days I was kind of bummed when I heard Bischoff was trying to put the money to buy wcw but vince out bid him.

Just think if Bischoff had gotten controll with the money to compete it makes me sad because I'm almost guaranting that wwe would be a heck of a lot better.

but vince was also famous for stealing talent from organizations changing their names and giving them a new gimick and proclaiming that he developed them. He is a joke when people give him all this credit.
Ask the old promoters if they like what vince did.

keg in kc · 04-21-2009, 07:17 PM

So I've been thinking about backlash.

Apparently on smackdown, batista/shane beat diabiase/rhodes, teasing more conflict. I think orton goes over sunday.

I think edge goes over cena, although having him standing over his body an hour into raw would usually make me think otherwise. But I think they'll use that beatdown as Cena's excuse, and it gets a title back on sd.

I can't imagine two heels going over on the same card, which is why I think that match looks like a setup for punk to cash in. He's not on the card, he'll be coming off a weak victory and two losses (tag matches on superstars and smackdown) and it's a direct open for a program with edge. And disregarding the fact that it's a shit ppv that nobody will watch, storyline-wise, what better possible opportunity would he have to cash in than after a last man standing match?

All that said I think it's too soon to do it, because even with his win last year, they haven't done much to build him up. Maybe have Jericho challenge him on SD, lose the belt in Chicago at Judgement Day and then have him eventually regain later in the summer to establish him.

Mecca · 04-21-2009, 07:18 PM

All promoters steal talent.....but when they want to the WWE makes new stars.

Bischoff basically used Turners money to compete. He had 1 good idea and when that idea finally faded out the company died.
