View Full Version : So yeah, Umaga has been impressing me lately, so sue me.

I'll admit, as much as I think the guy was just another fat fuck that couldn't wrestle worth shit, the past three weeks have gotten me to give this guy some new found faith. The one thing that got me to go WOAH about him was that freak-ass samoan drop he did to Shawn (where he caught Shawn after throwing him up in the air and droped him just as fast as he came down from the gravity). Somehow I think the WWE is just holding this guy back in terms of what they want him (Jamal) to do in the ring.
But his matches with Michaels and HHH (even though it may be because HBK and HHH made him look good, too) have gotten more entertaining. If they can just get him to do the TRUE Samoan Spike (where it's used as a submission to dig the thumb into a person's juggular) instead of just pounding the thumb into the juggular (which, as much as it WOULD hurt like fuck for someone to do, many will not get what it's actually doing, and the fucktards that are JR and The King don't help in actually explaining anything, no surprise there), then they can turn him into a believable killing machine.
But yeah, I've been warming up to this guy a bit more. Besides, he's got one of the better mic workers as his manager. And anything that gets me to watch RAW more often is good (since there's not much reason TO do so right now).

Yeah I agree, he's starting to entertain me now they're actually doing something interesting with him. I just hate how it takes the writers so fucking long to think of something for him to do. Beating jobbers every week doesn't interest me.
He's a talented guy. It's just that his gimmick sucks a ball.

I'd agree except his gimmick sucks the entire nutsack.

I'm not too much of a fan of his (he has been ok lately though) but I wanted to just point out that not only is he undefeated, but he holds a victory over John Cena, Shawn Michaels and Triple H. Why has he not yet had a title match?
Stupid WWE Writers logic.

And for anyone who misunderstood that, I said "title match", as in... title shot but definitely shouldn't win it.

Oh, oh! And he holds a victory over Ric Flair! Whoo!!! JR and King seem to think beating Flair is a huge deal... seems everyone has done it these days... but still...

You see, for once they're actually building to his title shot. You actually WANT them to use WWE logic by the looks of it.
With almost everyone else within the past three years, the WWE blew their load WAY too early. I wouldn't give Umaga the shot until the Survivor Series. And I wouldn't give him the title until at least New Year's Revolution.
Umaga should not be WWE Champion. EVER.
Samoa Joe agrees.
"OGAMUNGA" Said Joe, nawing on a bone. "UMMAGGAA NO WIN! RAARRR! ME SUBMISSION MACHINE! SABOOMOO!"

We're talking Jamal. The guy from 3MW?

3 Minute Warning wasn't a bad gimmick. They should've never made them jobbers.

Yeh the gimmick was decent, but my judgement has been soiled by Rosie's career in the WWE. I'm pretty much prejudice against Jamal by association now

The only reason Umaga is "impressive as of late" is because he hasn't had a match until last month. Job-squahes are not matches. They're boring. Then he beat Cena, HBK, 3H...and he's suddenly "impressive".
I got nothin' against the guy, but just because he's finally started to do something, it doesn't mean we need to spray our shorts.

Umaga's next on the injured list now that he's doing good.
