- The plan right now is to make Teddy Long the new GM of Smackdown. [WrestlingObserver.com]

----------

If that happens, I just might watch Smackdown!.

Funky Fly 07-25-2004 02:41 AM

OMG YES!

Rock Bottom 07-25-2004 03:07 AM

That'll get old quick.

Lara Emily 07-25-2004 03:50 AM

Cool better than SMH

Nowhere Man 07-25-2004 03:53 AM

Well, thank God it's not Steph. Still, Long's no Heyman.

Kane Knight 07-25-2004 03:57 AM

Holla.

As if his token ghetto slang wasn't getting old fast enough with his Veolcity appearances.

KingofOldSchool 07-25-2004 04:25 AM

Well there goes the idea of the new GM being a face. :|

Mr. Nerfect 07-25-2004 05:00 AM

Teddy can play the face. Beli' Dat! BTW, just a few weeks ago I was sure people were creaming themselves over Long and were really hoping he would be GM. :-\

Oh well, he can always ditch the slang.

Sephiroth 07-25-2004 06:05 AM

YES...i think he will be okay as GM

Hired Hitman 07-25-2004 06:31 AM

how many Blacks are there on Smackdown... He will probably give D-von the title. :D

HankScorpio 07-25-2004 07:38 AM

I'm tired of his gimmick already.

FourFifty 07-25-2004 02:31 PM

<font color=cyan>........................
The dude isn't over enough to be the GM!!! He has a catch phrase, and that's it! They can use Linda, Shane, Steph, Heyman, Sable, Mick Foley (Well, he's still on the website's roster, and they could do it to "say sorry for what Ric Flair said in his book), The Coach (Move him to SmackDown, he could be a CW)... Teddy Long is gonna suck.

The Naitch 07-25-2004 02:32 PM

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

addy2hotty 07-25-2004 02:36 PM

I agree with Always, I think the Coach would make an excellent GM. He's got the cocky heel thing, along with the weakling thing in the ring. Like a GM should have.

Damn shame William Regal's on Raw if you ask me. The best commissioner ever would make a fab GM.

this will not be happening on the black man's smackdown!

Evil Vito 07-25-2004 02:50 PM

<font color=goldenrod>Yeah, I read about this earlier.

Gonna rule.</font> :cool:

The Naitch 07-25-2004 02:50 PM

I hope this means a push for Bee-teezie

BLaZeR- 07-25-2004 03:06 PM

Sweet...finally Long is back on TV. As much as I want to see it, I doubt the WWE will actually push Booker though.

The Naitch 07-25-2004 03:09 PM

Teddy Long is the shit. Seriously. He just sucks whenever he's with Jindrak.

Loose Cannon 07-25-2004 03:14 PM

Long is the man.

The Naitch 07-25-2004 03:19 PM

Belie Dat

The Naitch 07-25-2004 03:20 PM

Is it me, or do you think they could've taken Long, Jazz, Mack and possibly Booker T higher than it was?

LK 07-25-2004 04:21 PM

What LC said.

.44 Magdalene 07-25-2004 06:30 PM

Teddy Long = :D
GM = :nono:

Teddy Long as GM = :-\ ?

Same here.

MVP 07-25-2004 06:38 PM

Hopefully Teddy Long's GM run will give Jindrak a midcard rub.

John la Rock 07-25-2004 08:30 PM

fuck Jindrak. "Yay I can do a dropkick". Has no talent and no charisma

Kane Knight 07-25-2004 10:25 PM

I agree. The only thing that makes Jindrak look good is his manager.

Without Teddy, he's shit.

mrslackalack 07-25-2004 10:26 PM

Teddy shall be interesting although I wish they Resigned Stone Cold or get Mick Foley to do it

Smackdowns changin GMs quicker than The Raptors changing Head Coaches lol

Kane Knight 07-25-2004 10:28 PM

Stone Cold is a REALLY bad idea. His last GM role really sucked up Raw.

He was a comedy act as a manager, plain and simple. Teddy Long used to be a fucking referee, for Christ's sake. GM's should have some legendary type status, either being a McMahon, formerly owning a promotion, being a former HOF-type wrestler, etc. Having someone like Long would be a joke, and I don't think the fans will believe that he deserves to be the GM of Smackdown.

In the events I've seen in this area, Long got bigger pops than many of the wrestlers. Don't know why, but that was as a ref.

Besides, a ref is supposed to be in a position of authority. We all know better, but GMs aren't much better off 50% of the time.

Either way, I don't want him as a GM. But if he wants to make Smackdown! Suck worse than Raw, it's a good start.

Boondock Saint 07-26-2004 02:25 AM

5 months ago I would have thought this would be sweet. But he hasn't been on SD in so long I don't really care about him anymore.

Corkscrewed 07-26-2004 03:07 AM

It'd be awesome at first, but I can also see how it'd get old. We'll see how it goes.

Angelina2K 07-27-2004 04:02 AM

Oh Heavens No! *smashes head against nearest wall* That is going to get old fast, more so with his slang talk.

Transplant 07-27-2004 04:07 AM

Eugene + GM Role = Musical Chairs to determine who would get an IC shot

Teddy + GM Role = ????

Shaggy 07-27-2004 04:49 AM

That might be funny to see him get his people to the top. Soon we will be seeing the black army of smackdown.

deathtrap 07-27-2004 04:51 AM

Didn't he use to be a ref?
