This nonsense needs to end already. Fandango has the worst angle going for him. This isnt entertainment
He's making the most out of what he's been given.
 
I love seeing Lita's cleavage!..She's natural right?
 
I was hoping that Joe/Magnus would have a proper feud over the TV title but alas tna had other crappier ideas.

Disagree. I think it's fun. :yay:
 
Thirded me. I hated it originally because the whole refusing to wrestle thing got old, but hearing how good Curtis is from not only Punk, Jericho, and Stone Cold, but from some of my more hardcore wrestling fan friends, it's good that they're giving another new guy a good push.

Let's hope WWE doesn't screw it up (which is an 80% chance of happening)

At this point, I'm entertained. And the crowd is into his theme song. That's a good way of starting to get yourself over.

Fandango is Vince's pet project, so unless Vince has a moodswing, I don't see them screwing this up anytime soon.

He's been given props from Austin too? So Punk, Jericho and Stone Cold have all given him their seal of approval, that's some massive props right there.
 
I could be wrong, but I think that Steve Austin tweet was taken out of context. I saw the few that he sent out this morning, and they were talking more about Fandango's theme and meeting with Jim Johnston and how popular the theme has been. So to me, I took it more as he's going to be the IC Camp because he's going to be popular, not because he's a good wrestler. Like I said, I could be wrong, but that's how I interpreted it.
 
Where is Stone Cold when you need him to open a can of whoop-@$$ on CM Punk and John Cena.
 
It's easy to think Lita's a cradle snatcher given she was at her peak 12 years ago while Punk is in his peak now, when the reality is that there's what? Only 3 years between them in age?

It makes you understand why Punk was never a viable option to beat the streak.

That's true, the perception is there. They make a really well-matched couple together though, in my very superficial opinion.

Then again, there is always a double standard when it comes to older women/younger men relationships. In those scenarios, the popular perception always adds an additional 5 years compared to older man/younger women situations. Sad but true.

Scott Hall joined Inside The Ropes this past Thursday to talk about getting sober and his career in professional wrestling. Highlights from the interview are as follows:

About being a top guy in the WWE today and his son Cody going there: "I don’t get to watch a lot of WWE, but through this internet thing, Some people comment about a guy becoming the World Champ or the US champ and a couple of weeks later he’s down the card in the opening match. I think that kills the image of being a top guy. But I guess the promoters, the guys in the WWE calling the shots are seeing it like ‘We’re giving you a chance and if you don’t produce, you don’t produce and back down you go’ I’ve talked to Cody about it a lot and he’s in no hurry to go there. He’d rather be seasoned and polished before he makes a move like that."

On what Scott and Kevin knew the night of the Bash at the Beach 96: "We had no idea who it was going to be. The whole third guy thing came up by accident. I remember Kev and I called Bret and I spoke to him, Kev spoke to him and we told him it was really fun working at WCW. It was really laid back, guaranteed money, it was easy. We were so used to being in a shark tank in New York. Coming to Atlanta was like being in a country club. It was really tame in the locker room in WCW compared to New York. We told Bret he should come down. Bischoff was interested, he was offering him a pretty sweet deal but Bret wasn’t interested. We wanted it to be Hulk, but Hulk had creative control in his contract so he didn’t have to do anything he didn’t want to do. We went to the ring, we hadn’t even met Hulk yet, I met him briefly at WrestleMania 9 but I didn’t know Hulk, we actually went to the ring in Daytona and Hogan wasn’t even there yet. He was on a jet, flying cross country from shooting a movie. Bischoff wanted it to be Hulk but before we went out, Bischoff told us “If Hulk doesn't show, I’m gonna send out Sting."

How he became sober, with the assistance of Diamond Dallas Page: "I didn’t have any purpose in my life. My goal had been to be a top star in wrestling and I did that. Then I thought the natural progression would be me working in the office but it didn’t happen. I had a little heart episode about 7 weeks ago, I ended up in the hospital in intensive care for a week. The doctor commented ‘you’re a freak, you’re a genetic freak, your heart is normal again’ While I was there, there was this kid who brought me my food and he was a big wrestling fan, and the kid kept coming back and one time he whipped out his iPhone and he had the before and after pics of Jake The Snake. I’d heard things but never seen the pictures. I’d talked to Jake and I knew good things were happening and Dallas was at the root of it and I thought, Do I go to rehab again? Or do I try something else? Instead of treading water in rehab, I don’t know what triggered it and to be honest i don’t question it. I’m moving in the right direction finally, for the first time in so long. I’m 65 days now without any alcohol or drug. I’ve had longer times, but I’ve always been in a facility. I have no cravings and I feel great."

Fandango is really putting his all into the gimmick.He hasn't impressed me too much yet, but if he can keep up with the crowd, he has potential as a midcard act.
