which out of these two "CODY RHODES" or "TED DIBIASE" do you think will get the biggest push. (and why?).
Cody Rhodes just looks like he's a few steps ahead of DiBiase, as far as development.

I choose the Diamond Studd.

Scott Hall? I think that they both will receive huge pushes. I think that Dibiasi will be the one who will turn on Orton. Cody is improving day by day. I like the cross rhodes as a finishing name too.

Oh and DiBiase has the better look for long term success.

Rhodes has more experience, he seems more competent right now.

They both will do well. I will like to see Cody grow into that crafty cocky little heel that he can be. DIbiasi is smooth. I don't know if I will like him as a face.

dibiase should get the push, but if only one of them will get it, it's gonna be cody, even though i disagree with it, it seems the agents and vince like him more

Why would you say that? Dibiasi is the one who shot the movie.
What Would Kevin Do?
02-14-2009, 09:30 PM
Dibiase. Cody just doesn't have the look. Unless he dramatically changes his appearance, I don't see it happening.

And by dramatically change, do you mean hit the Steroids? I like the Priceless remix by the way. I know a lot of use guys trash it.

No, I mean not look like an annoying country hick. He's seriously one of the least intimidating wrestlers I've ever seen. He reminds me of a guy who hangs out with jocks, or holds some sad positions on a team, like the kicker, so he thinks he's tough by association, but he really just looks like a bitch.
Like, I seriously want to see him in a gimmick where every time he starts to talk, someone just slaps him and goes "Shut up bitch!", and he just takes it, because he's a bitch.

Personally, I think Cody Rhodes is a lot more talented. At this stage of the game, anyway. He's the better talker, and the smoother worker, for my money. That being said, I think Ted DiBiase is going to get the bigger push. I think Cody will eventually get there, but I think DiBiase will be pushed harder and faster.

I say Cody. Because I don't drool over TJ.

They are both going to get pushed to the top eventually.
I think they will have reasonably parallelled careers like Eddie and Benoit did.
Krimzon7
02-15-2009, 12:10 PM
Yeah, It would be cool to see that. They cut a promo once upon a time stating that they'd be headlining WM against each other.

I think, if all is in their favor, the eventual Proceless break-up feud could rival the Christian/Jericho break-up feud in awesomeness.

probably Cody Rhodes will get the push as soon as he hits puberty
Stickman
02-15-2009, 01:34 PM
I think Dibiase. For whatever reason I think he has "it" moreso than Rhodes. I like Rhodes and see a great future, but I think Dibiase goes further.
St. Jimmy

Rhodes, because he can actually work the stick.

It's tough for me to say at this point. I think Rhodes is more developed as a wrestler at this point, but I think Dibiase is more charismatic.
Although both are still quite green, I am very happy at the way they are developing.
I'll go on record as saying that I'm a HUGE fan of Team Legacy right now. Thank god that Manu and Snuka aren't a part of it. They just didn't seem to 'fit'.
Having said that - I wouldn't have minded seeing them become a tag team on Smackdown....possibly aligning with a returning Umaga (has he even returned?)
Afterlife
02-16-2009, 03:19 AM
I liked Manu. Snuka has just been "generica guy angry about nothing specific".

Yes. Needs steroids and no diabetes. Wilford Brimley can help him get the testing supplies he needs.
That said, Ted will get the push first. He's got the look and the movie. I do think that they'll move up at a pretty comparable rate though.

Agreed. However - Snuka had a MUCH better look for 'Team Legacy' than Manu did (although in my opinion, neither man really fit with the group).
I think a Somoan stable could have been interesting. Hopefully, the WWE does something with that.
A stable full of niggers that like rap music (i.e. Cryme Tyme and R-Truth) could also work. Maybe JBL can 'buy' them through a stipulation of some sort and make them his slaves. :p Lashes on the back and everything.

Manu, I could buy as the fraternity fat guy. Snuka had no place there at all. What should have happened, instead of Snuka trying to get in with them was him taking them on, saying a Second Gen Superstar doesn't need help. That coulda been something. But I don't think either of them really needed to be in that group at all.
I think the big black gand thing was done with the Nation of Domination. They also had the Awful Name category taken care of nicely. But A Snuka/Manu/Umaga stable with a legit mouthpiece/figure head could really be something.

That "fat frat guy" idea for Manu is actually pretty good, Afterlife. He was reasonable on the mic, and seemed fairly likeable, even when playing a heel character. The WWE loves their "fat guys who love to party" gimmicks, too.

That's pretty much what I figured they were doing. "Legacy" is a fraternity reference, so I assumed Manbu was their relative Ogre.

Snuka is adpoted thats why he didnt't make you have to of real wrestling blood to get in

I personally prefer Cody at the moment, but as mentioned earlier he just doesn't seem to be the most intimidating of people. Also at the moment I'm liking the way the Legacy have a sort of 'good friends' type vibe going on. Like the way Orton last night was telling Ted to take Cody to the back to make sure he's okay. That's more like something you would find from a face stable.

I won't hold Cody Rhodes' look against him. His father made it into the Hall of Fame by being an out-of-shape looking guy, who still fought anyway. Rhodes could easily play a sympathetic babyface type role with his current build.

How am I suppose to have sympathy for him when I want to slap the shit out of him?

Cody's reactions and demeanour last night were much, much better than Ted's....I am tempted to say Ted because I was such a mark for his dad, but Cody is much closer to a definate article at the moment.

Cody has always been closer.

Ted needs a little more seasoning. He will get there. I like Cody alot recently, but I just cant buy him as a threat. As a face he will be so non-threatening it would be sad. At least now he is in a stable to run around with.
BigDaddyCool
02-17-2009, 12:01 PM
If Rey can be a "threat" so can Cody.

Don't forget about the Hindu stable ;)
