Where's that pirate guy?
 

Ok, maybe I blinked and missed it, but where the hell is everyone's favourite wrestler Burchill?

I'm a huge mark for the guy and I was unsure about his change of direction gimmick-wise, but found reassurance in the possibility they'd be pushing him and his pirate gimmick to compliment the Pirates of the Carribean film.

So, four months later, we have the film but no Burchill. What's going on?

Burchill's out on injury, which was explained by Mark Henry taking him out. He'll be back, sans pirate gimmick. A shame.

He's injured? I heard they just sent him back down to OVW.

I believe it was knee problems. It was being reported around here, and that he'd be coming back without the gimmick (According to him on some interview).

Yeah, I've heard nothing about him being sent to OVW. Pretty sure he's just out on injury.

Hopefully he'll come back with an even sweeter gimmick...like a viking or a Storm Trooper.

or he'll just be Burchill. But he'll need a manager to get over in the States if he is just Burchill.

Maybe Just Burchill could be like Just Joe. I loved that gimmick.

lol Just Joe was awesome.

Just Joe was a poor man's Sean O'Haire

I really wish Just Joe would've been around longer, just to see what they would have done with it.

I don't think I remember Just Joe. Smackdown guy? Or am I being retarded?

He was around circa 1999, I believe. Before the brand split. Pretty sure it was Joe E. Legend. Anyway, his gimmick was he was just go around backstage and start rumors. Something lke "the Undertaker said you were a pussy" and they guy'd be like "Oh, REALLY? I'll show him!" and start a fight with the Undertaker or something. Every time they'd ask who the hell he was, he'd say "I'm just Joe".

Heat jobber. His gimmick was that he was a gossip and a rat. He had a few matches (some of us were quite surprised as he was a decent worker) but inevitably he fell by the wayside

Thank goodness his burial had a legit reason (sorta). Usually people just disappear because they're too popular.

:nono:

Joe E Legend is one of the most misused talents in WWE history. The guy was (is) so damn talented.

Apparently he was just copying Jack Sparrow,but Vince hadnt seen the movie so he didnt notice.

Don't be ridiculous.

WWE would never copy anything.

Pirate Paul, meh.
I'm still waiting for Hassan to come back, but we know he won't be Hassan,
He'll Be: http://www.roadflares.org/matt/image..._commander.jpg
COBRA-LALALALALALALALALALALALALALA!

Fuck Burchill.

Where is Steve the Pirate?

Cobra-lalalala? Were you seriously trying to do the vocals on Hassan's theme? You sadden me. :'(

Because Benoit matters.

Burchill's a rookie, and despite getting a great reaction (Which, of course, is bad, because he's only been in WWE for a few months, and thus is obviously green), he's going to be treated as one.

Oh, I know it did. Just saying.

Actually, I'm kinda glad they haven't been playing up Henry's injury streak more. It's annoying to see Burchill drop out of notice, but he was never really in the spotlight to begin with...

No TR. That's from the old GI Joe cartoon show. We all know that a proper Hassaning sounds like.

Just checking. The only exposure I have to GI Joe is...

STOP ALL THE DOWNLOADIN'!!

ROFL, that's my FAVORITE GI Joe spoof. :rofl:

LOL, a local alt rock station (95.5 WBRU) uses audio clips from various GI Joe PSA parodies in their ads. One has something to do with winning a computer, then an edited version of that kid above plays: "I dunno much about computers other than the one we got, my mom put a couple of games on there."

He'll come back as a Power Ranger
