when ya gonna realize dohph is trash.im happy wwe sees it.
Yes, when he is given absolutely zero direction, and playing a face when he should be a heel, he is trash. When he is a smug, cocky heel like when he cashed in the MITB, he is one of the best in the WWE.

Speaking of Wresltlemania moments.....

- One of the major highlights of WrestleMania 31 was the first (and possibly only) Fed match for stalwart WCW company-man Sting, one of the final wrestling superstars we never thought we’d see in a WWE ring. He lost to Triple H, and a 1990s-themed gang war broke out.

According to a story from The Attitude Era, released earlier this month, Sting’s WWE debut almost happened 12 WrestleManias earlier. The book states that Sting almost signed with WWE in 2003, and would’ve made his debut at WrestleMania XIX against Stone Cold Steve Austin. Here’s the blurb, with a hat tip to John Canton over at What Culture:

“I had been negotiating with Vince [McMahon], and one of the ideas was for me to debut at the end of WrestleMania XIX and confront ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin. Negotiations fell apart and it never happened, but it makes you wonder, ‘What if?’ That was one of the times I was talking with Vince, and it would’ve been an incredible night that would’ve translated into some major, major rivalries and match-ups for years to come.”

As you might know, WrestleMania XIX featured Stone Cold Steve Austin vs. The Rock in what ended up being Austin’s final match. While Austin/Rock is one of WWE’s defining rivalries, Sting and Austin had a long history, as well: The two worked together often in WCW in the early ’90s, when Sting was a top babyface surfer and Austin had floppy blonde hair and called himself “Stunning.” The dynamic would’ve shifted tremendously at Mania, and it’s a shame that didn’t come to pass.

At least we got Terminators and drum bands and X-Pac, though, right?

this dude KO, what a difference it makes when a guys gold on the mic and can go in the ring. opens up so much for feuds/storylines and building anticipation etc. gonna have guys step their game up. builds depth to his character with every promo.

dont even matter that he comes to the ring lookin like 3pt specialist at ur local pickup game lol
 
The resident "other" old timer here...anyone going to go to the Legends of Citi Field? Tickets are half off just for today if any are interested. I'll be the CelticsPride guy with the cookies! :smokin
 
It's probably just me, but I see a Raven and Stone Cold hybrid in K.O.

I believe its all about timing. Im pretty sure that KO has been approached before, but seeing how they treated the WCW and indie guys he chose not to submit. With the shift in talent and the established indie wrestlers it made sense.

Still I agree that being good on the mic is like 75% of the star requirement. WWE no longer allows talent over mic skills.

And like he said, KO isn't some homegrown WWE, hes been in there with Styles, Samoa Joe, Neville and plenty of other indie stars.
 
The difference between KO's new And 1 shorts and those dusty Family Dollar cotton shorts is amazing :lol:
 
I'm slowly giving up on the Show Off :smh:

They stripped him down of everything. AJ. Big E. The gyration. The "I'm better than you" attitude. He looks like he took a ride in the deloreon from 1983 or something. He needs to go back to stealing show for the simple joy of pleasing himself rather him trying to do it for the crowd and fans.
 
SCSA/PH Podcast was cool. Wish they would've talked more about the talents, though.
