Wooo, a new OVWer is coming up.
 

Magnus is a great wrestler as well according to reports I've heard. Did Mark Magnus also go under the name Shawn Daivi or somehting like that (sorry if it's wrong)? Apparantly he has a good finisher as well.

Why are they changing his name? Mark Magnus is a great name.

:y:

Cuz they want to be racist and insult Arabs.

In fact, he'll prolly be a copy of The Sultan.

What I'm gonna hate is how the American "faces" will go, "We don't like you because your Arabian!" or "How dare an Arab come here and voice his opinion!". I'd love to see the Hassan character make sensible and valid points (like Christopher Nowinski). I wouldn't be surprised to see him labelled as "The Only Arabian Weapon of Mass Destruction" Mohammad Hassan.

BTW, Mark Magnus is a great name, and for his debut, for some reason, I pictured him coming out with a shiny US flag as a cape sort of thing. I wonder what the chances of this now are? :-\

is he an arab?

I call a Cat Stevens gimimick.

I didn't think so at first, but I never actually saw him. By the way he was accepted into OVW you would have never have picked it up. I guess he'd need to be, though, to play the Mohammad Hassan role.

No he most certainly is not in fact with short hair and a clean shave he is the definition of a blue chipper.

I hope not.. The Anti American Gimmick is the most overdone Gimmick ever in the WWE.

I think it would be better if Mohammad Hassan was pro-Iraq and not Anti-America.
