The Second City Edgeheads?
 
Quote:

Colt Cabana and Ace Steel were originally supposed to be Edge's lackeys. The plan was for Ace Steel to be the serious wrestler, while Cabana was supposed to be the comedy wrestler. Edge was all for this. This didn't happen because Edge was injured during the Mardis Gras gimmick with Kane. They decided to use the Major Brothers instead and Ace Steel was fired.

Sweet. But the Major Brothers do look a lot like Edge.

Indifferent Clox 04-04-2008 06:31 PM

Never tell me anything like this again. I am gonna go take a shower and when I come back I hope that I've forgotten about this!

QUICK! HIDE THE SLEEPING PILLS!

Heros Welcome 04-04-2008 06:36 PM

Just picturing Cabana in a Rated R singlet.

O well, would have been sweet to see Colt on TV, but I still got my fingers crossed that he becomes someone, and not the next Eugene.

Kane Knight 04-04-2008 06:46 PM

He won't be the next Eugene. He'll be the next Black Machismo.

Kane Knight 04-04-2008 06:47 PM

Of course, it won't go over as well with him in blackface...

IC Champion 04-04-2008 06:53 PM

They would probably be better than the Majors.

Londoner 04-04-2008 06:54 PM

Nah the majors are perfect for the role, i don't think i would've liked the original idea tbh.

IC Champion 04-04-2008 06:56 PM

I think Colt Cabana is good entertainment, not a threat to be a World Champion or anything, but entertaining.

CSL 04-04-2008 07:13 PM

Cabana is one of those guys who could go anywhere, it just depends how he's used in 'the E'. Limitless potential

Kane Knight 04-04-2008 07:31 PM

Just like every other indie wrestler ever, evidently.

That's untrue, KooS. Cena could never ever go anywhere because he sucks. It's just every indie wrestler ever.

Kane Knight 04-04-2008 07:49 PM

And Val Venis, Doug Basham, CM Punk (OMG AN EDITED VIDEO OF Survivor Series!!), Quick...Who am I missing?

Paul London
Chris Jericho
Paul Burchill

Kane Knight 04-04-2008 08:18 PM

Oh, right. How could I forget Jericho?

Fox 04-04-2008 08:59 PM

Throw Billy Kidman in there.

Danny Basham too, even if only for the epic feud he would surely have had with the main eventing World Champion Doug Basham.

Colt Cabana more so, you have to admit it. The guy has some size, could work the WWE style (he doesn't flip around too much), and he's funny as fuck. Cabana really is the WWE's dream package in a "sports entertainer."

Not sure how I feel about Cabana & Steel being Edge's lackeys. I'm sure they would have done well in the role, but I'd then probably like Edge too much to tolerate his crappy program with The Undertaker. At least the WWE seem to think that Cabana is talented enough to hang around main event guys.

Zack Ryder & Curt Hawkins are pretty good, though. They're still a little green, but this is great work experience for them. Ace Steel getting fired was the best thing that ever happened to them. Curt Hawkins is a damn good bumper, too, I've noticed. Best of luck to them.

Ah yes, but I personally never say it about anybody. Therefore you may take it as gospel :)

I've never found Cabana funny.....

Mr. JL 04-05-2008 03:33 AM

or entertaining

Mr. JL 04-05-2008 03:42 AM

or good at wrestling

Mr. Nerfect 04-05-2008 04:09 AM

And Xero is jealous that Santino Marella is funnier than him. Doesn't make it correct.

To each their own, but I think general consensus seems to be that Cabana is the right kind of guy to make it in the WWE.

The Optimist 04-05-2008 05:46 AM

I don't know. Either way, really. I really don't care for the name Edgeheads, or the phrase "Rated Rmy" or whatever. To be honest, I'd immediately be interested in Ace Steel and Colt Cabana, whereas I didn't really realize it was the Major Brothers when they debuted the gimmick.

I'd like to see them pushed more, whoever they are. They're in the old Team Angle situation, but they haven't done much to set themselves apart yet.

Theo Dious 04-05-2008 10:19 AM

Hawkins and Ryder wer the far superior choice. Why? Because nobody gave much of a shit about them. You put Cabana and Steel in as Edge's lackeys, and five minutes later all of their drooling fans start to complain about how they're being wasted, how they should be feuding for the WHC, ect, etc. At least Hawkins and Ryder get nothing but a rub from Edge, and it helps them polish their overall ability while they folloe him around.

Destor 04-05-2008 10:31 AM

i don't think anoyone wants a world title run for Cabanna.

thedamndest 04-05-2008 11:26 AM

I still have no idea which one is Ryder and which one is Hawkins. Even last night when one of them wrestled Festus I thought I would get it settled once and for all, but no. Because when they did their interview they both talked, so it was like WTF, which one are you? And I never had that problem with the Headshrinkers. Maybe I'm getting older.

I'm sure that 'Noid's aspirations for WWE's "Dream Package" were Velocity and maybe one day ECW.

Destor 04-05-2008 03:22 PM

Cabanna is the WWe's dream package in a sports entertainer. thats not an incorrect statement. I don't knwo how much Cabanna you've seen but they guy is exactly what they want from a comedy charecter, and I think that exactly what Noid meant.

ron the dial 04-05-2008 03:25 PM

colt cabana is amazing. that's all i wanted to add. need to get in my dose of former indie wrestler dick suckage.

Mr. Nerfect 04-05-2008 09:00 PM

Yeah, thanks for not being stupid, Destor.

Also, I'm fairly certain Cabana is going to get above Velocity, seeing as it isn't around anymore. I at least expect some Tag Team Title runs for the guy, and probably some IC or US Title wins.

Thats my expectations more or less. A mid card title run on SD! if he's fortunate but definatly a Tag Title run if he gets the call. He's ideal for them to put him with a bland powerhouse baby face, and just let them ride it to the moon.

Destor 04-05-2008 09:03 PM

...or until the wheels fall of...

Mr. Nerfect 04-05-2008 09:09 PM

I want to see a feud between William Regal and Cabana. They can both work the European style, and it would just be hilarity.

ron the dial 04-05-2008 09:10 PM

the facial expressions in that match alone.

Destor 04-05-2008 10:12 PM

lol
