My Experience at Smackdown (no spoilers!)
 

Hey guys and gals! Just got in from Mohegan Sun. Fun time, but exhausted now (2.5 hour drive from Providence) and need to go to bed soon. Before I do, a couple of quick notes... I spotted John Morrison on his cell phone in the casino after the show. I very patiently waited until he got off the phone, so that I wouldn't be rude, and then very nicely asked him for his autograph. He said he wasn't able to sign tonight. I'm disappointed in that.

Also, I met the young dude who operates the huge crane camera we see at all the shows. He even showed me how the camera works, and told me Vince often gives him commands through the headset that he was wearing. Very cool.

I'm wondering though, did anyone see my TPWW sign on NXT?

wow Morrison is a dick

I liked him until this incident. Hell, I even waited until he got off the phone before I asked for his autograph. I figured it was the right thing to do, ya know? How many other "wrestling fans" would have done that? Like the old saying goes, nice guys finish last.

Was there pen and paper, or would one of you had to have go find a pen? I think you should also understand that he has probably slept like 6 hours over the past few days.

I had a pen and paper in my hand... and yes, I understand he might have been tired, but he was not very nice in the way he answered me.

There always seems to be negative stories when it comes to meeting wrestlers in that casino. I think one of the last ones, Kofi was the one who wasnt cool to people.

Wrestlers are assholes.

Except Bob Holly. He's a sweetheart.

Play Smackdown vs RAW and beat his ass in a hardcore match.

Maybe they're not supposed to sign autographs in the casino?

Sounds like a dick move, but sometimes there is more to things

Shoulda dropped a slot machine on him and when he was crushed told him starship pain is probably the gayest move for a name ever.

Then dropped a deuce on his hair and worked it in well so getting it out would be nigh on impossible. :y:

Someone mentioned in the NXT Thread in the temp forums (this forum was down while NXT was on) that they thought they had seen your tpww sign.

I just watched last night's NXT and the TPWW sign did make it on TV.
After Darren Young's match with David Otunga, Young rolled out of the ring and stood near the guard rail. I was behind him holding the sign and the cameras caught it. I wish I knew how to do a screen capture... Can any of you who might have access to last night's episode put up a pic of the sign??

That was me. Definitely saw the TPWW sign. Way to go, Peepy.

Thanks, guys! I really appreciate it.
BTW, I totally marked out for Morrison during his match last night, but now I think he's an asshole. Other superstars have signed for me in the casino at the Mohegan, and I was nice enough to wait until he ended his cell phone conversation (not many fans would have done that!), but yet he still wouldn't sign. Maybe the shitty flight trouble had something to do with his attitude, but I don't think taking it out on the fans is acceptable.

Meeting the camera dude and having him show me how the camera works was VERY cool, though.

Was he overly mean about it or did he say it in a polite way?

I mean, God forbid they not want to be bothered by fans.

He had an attitude..... and, just imo, they should be *grateful* to the fans and show their appreciation of them.... not think they're being "bothered" by a fan who is politely, non-aggressively asking for an autograph.

Totally understand your frustration, but shit happens. Good job on the tpww sign!

I was surprised the TPWW sign didn't get taken away from me.
I did make a sign that said, "TOTALLY NOT ACCEPTABLE" (for TNA) and that
one was taken, although there was nothing obvious about it being a TNA reference.

I think they're used to tpww signs.

John Morrison must be turning heel soon

maybe the call he was on was not a good one

If he signed an autograph for you, he would have had to sign autographs for everybody in the casino!

His gambling time would have quickly turned into an autograph session!

SLIPPERY SLOPE!

Just be glad it wasn't STEVE BLACKMAN. He would have take one look at you and you would have burst into flames.

Steve Blackman would autograph your face with his fist

Matt Hardy would have stopped his car and helped you change your tire and filmed a youtube video while signing for you.

:rofl:

Chris Jericho would have punched you in the face.

CM Punk would have shaved your head

and then autograph your scalp

Ric Flair would have told you to stop making a scene, called you a fruit and told you to leave.

If Flair was in a good mood he would have gone to the top of the nearest piece of furniture, allowed you to throw him off, got up, flopped down, bladed, begged for mercy, then finally put you over by signing the autograph.

And if he was in a REALLY good mood he'd give you a ride on space mountain. Or at least a glance.

Did they explain R-Truth being blown up on Raw?

lol he just showed up on NXT, no mention of the angle at all.

He seems to have the ability to survive cartoon mishaps, which means he could never be beaten by Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart.

when will they learn to not use ACME products

I hate Morrison now, thanks for letting me know. I am always looking for new people to hate, especially wrestlers so this is good.

You're really going to dislike up-and-comer Adolf von Stalin. He has a poor attitude about most people.

Oh u would love to hate Davey Richards then. At one of the last ROH shows I went to, one of my buddies saw him in the parking lot and almost approached him, but he had this look on his face like "I dare you to come up to me and see what happens". He is an awesome wrestler, but definitely seems like an ass.
