Mike Knox: Yay or nay?
 
I say yay.

Xero 08-13-2006 02:46 PM

I don't know, he reminds me too much of Gene Snitsky. Not that it's Snitsky's fault.

Anybody Thrilla 08-13-2006 02:50 PM

Is that good or bad?

Kane Knight 08-13-2006 02:53 PM

Why is there no "I have not seen enough of him to decide?"

Aside from agreeing with the "You can't wrestle" chants, and thinking his storyline is retarded, I don't overtly have anything against him.

Anybody Thrilla 08-13-2006 02:54 PM

Because I have no respect for the fence sitters. Make a decision, bitch.

Anybody Thrilla 08-13-2006 02:55 PM

Also, "Yay, nay, or I haven't seen enough of him to decide" doesn't really roll of the tongue.

Anybody Thrilla 08-13-2006 02:56 PM

He's not a bad wrestler, I don't think. Excuse me, he's not a bad brawler.

Chavo Classic 08-13-2006 02:59 PM

Who is he?

Have you not been watching ECW?

Skippord 08-13-2006 03:16 PM

Nay cause he is super weird looking

Kane Knight 08-13-2006 03:22 PM

Finbe. Nay. I'm not going to approve of some worthless fuck in a gay storyline and with no wrestling skills. I could watch Smackdown for that.

McLegend 08-13-2006 03:35 PM

He the first wrestler I have legit hated in quite a while.

Can't back you on this one, Abt

Kane Knight 08-13-2006 03:38 PM

He still hasn't made me want to turn off my TV though. Unlike every time Punk speaks. I suppose that's what makes him such a natural heel.

So when did Jabba start booking?

Blitz 08-13-2006 03:52 PM

Nay right now. He hasn't shown me anything special.

I'm not looking for backing. I just wanted to see how you guys felt about Mike Knox.

Destor 08-13-2006 04:38 PM

Yay. The guy is solid brawler, which means the Internet crowd will most likely say "he can't wrestle." But brawling has always been the MOST profitable form of American professional wrestling so I have no complaints there. The jealous boyfriend angle is an easy way for him to get heat but I don't mind so much, baby face vale (sp?) willingly on a heels shoulder is always entertaining (Savage/Elizabeth.) His demeanor and mannerisms remind me alot of Shane Douglas, and that a good thing. So thumbs up at this point.

Anybody Thrilla 08-13-2006 04:45 PM

Yeah, I don't see why people seem to think brawling is so shitty. It always looks the most believeable to me. Would it be better if he did fourteen backflips into a clothesline or something?

Yeah I don't know. Brawling is grounded in reality people can identify with it. Everyone knows what it feels like to be punched. Why the smarks gravitate only technical wrestlers (or think that its the only form of wrestling and everything else is.. I dunno... hop-scotch?) I'll never know. They guy can wrestle, just not the form that the Dave Meltz... I mean smarks respect.

ClockShot 08-13-2006 07:28 PM

Nay, I say. Really haven't seen the show lately. All I know is that this guy is hooked up with some hot chick named Kelly, who can't strip for shit. Once I get my scheduling issues straightened out, I will make a future judgement.

NoJabbaNoBogRoll 08-13-2006 07:34 PM

Stone Cold had some great matches after his surgery despite 90% brawling.

Vastardikai 08-13-2006 11:55 PM

I'm Southern (from GA), so I'll bet you know my stance on the Brawlers.

If you don't, here it is. If The X Division had a straight up brawler (I don't mean Joe, I mean a BRAWLER.), it could only help. Wrestling is like a buffet (just ask Viscera... :shifty: ). You have the dishes that some are gonna like and others will hate. You can't realistically have a card with nothing but Garbage Wrestlers. Or Nothing but Aerialists. Or Nothing but Technical Gods. You got to have something for everyone. What do I know, though?

Vastardikai 08-13-2006 11:56 PM

As for Knox, I'll give him the Benefit of the Doubt.

D Mac 08-13-2006 11:58 PM

Nah. SANDMAN is where it's at.

Anybody Thrilla 08-14-2006 12:05 AM

Mike Knox is more techincally sound than The Sandman.

alvarado52 08-14-2006 12:11 AM

i really dont know tbh, like i have seen him wrestle since his debut, but i havent really seen anything to make me decide. Im gonna go with yay though, just because he is a decent wrestler so far.

D Mac 08-14-2006 12:19 AM

He's very plain.

Kane Knight 08-14-2006 12:20 AM

Even Austin could bring more to the table than just brawling, even after his injury.

Mr. Nerfect 08-14-2006 12:21 AM

From everything I've heard, the guy is one of the better big men out there. Apparently, Paul Heyman requested him for the new ECW himself. Knowing the WWE, The Outlaw hasn't shown even a tenth of his real potential.

With Heyman getting a little more control over ECW, now, I think we may see Knox handled in the way that Heyman had envisioned. Right now, I'm saying "yay", because the guy seems to have a lot of potential. Hopefully Knox and Heyman convert some "naysayers" over the next few weeks.

Skippord 08-14-2006 12:27 AM

He is really weird looking though

Azriel 08-14-2006 12:30 AM

Drop Kelly and I think he can go far.

Skippord 08-14-2006 12:31 AM

Drop Knox and I think Kelly could go far

Skippord 08-14-2006 12:31 AM

IN MY PANTS

Maybe they could have him play a "Sci-Fi" character? Mike Knox's initials are "MK", which are also the initials for "Mortal Kombat". Could Knox being trying to take over our realm? Almost definately.

Skippord 08-14-2006 12:35 AM

Shao Knox

Anybody Thrilla 08-14-2006 12:48 AM

That would be funny precisely one time.

Impact! 08-14-2006 03:43 AM

He Looks Like a mix of Albert and Snitsky
