He's Broke, Kid.
 
So who finds the "HBK is broke" angle pretty hilarious?

thedamndest 12-15-2008 02:04 PM

He's dead, Jim.

KingofOldSchool 12-15-2008 02:27 PM

Paul, I can't feel my legs.

I do.

Jeritron 12-15-2008 05:21 PM

As long as it's revealed that he secretly spends his money on blow and hookers I'll buy it

thedamndest 12-15-2008 05:30 PM

I would like it if one of the "friends" he bought a house for was Marty Jannetty.

Jeritron 12-15-2008 05:41 PM

They should just say he gave all his salary to televangelists. It's probably based in truth.

Funky Fly 12-15-2008 08:20 PM

lol this angle is ridiculous.

Michaels is a lot less lame when he isn't "facing adversity" all the fucking time.

I find any WWE attempt at topicality to be hilarious.

This really makes HHH look like an asshole. Dude is married to the bosses daughter and he wont even help out his Kliq teammate?

And how is HBK poor and still doing those DX commercials. He probably makes more doing those commercials than I have in the past 3 years.

Fuck you HBK. You're not poor.

HHH and Steh are kayfabe divorsed, and HHH is kayfabe paying child support, Steph has really good kayfabe lawyers. If anything it makes Nash look like a dick for not helping out HHH and HBM.

that would be a good invasion angle, have trips and hbk owe nash and the mem money.

The Mackem 12-16-2008 12:39 PM

Nash is keeping Hall supplied with liquor, don't pin this on Nash!

BigDaddyCool 12-16-2008 12:49 PM

don't give me that shit, no one knows where Hall is execpt when he shows up.

The Mackem 12-16-2008 12:53 PM

Nash knows, he's playing everyone for fools.

BigDaddyCool 12-16-2008 01:09 PM

Anyhow, X-Pac can't help anyone.

Had to revisit this. You do know wrestling's fake, right? I mean, Undertaker is neither a zombie nor a MMA fighter, Kane isn't his brother, nobody is really wished well in their future endeavors, and John Cena and Randy Orton are probably lovers, not enemies.

But if we do want to get anal, medical bills are really crippling, and it's probably more believable that the Has-Been Kid is in debt up to his eyeballs than it is to believe most of the other current storylines.

Dorkchop 12-16-2008 01:42 PM

HBK should say the main reason he came back to wrestling was because we was broke. This could be a nice heel turn for HBK. Literally have him sell out. After a year he could find some money again, develop a massive ego again, lose all his money and be happier "broke" than he ever was rich.

I think this could have worked better with Goldust, but practically no one would care except for a few internet wrestling nerds.

Xero 12-16-2008 02:30 PM

They should do something with Ted Sr. He could bail Michaels out.

I think this gimmick should have been used for Flair...

LOL, that is awesome.

parkmania 12-16-2008 03:20 PM

At least King came on last night and mentioned that the DX promos were "filmed earlier", before the angle started.

This angle is very smartarded.

RVDmark 12-16-2008 11:16 PM

This angle also makes WWE pay look a bit poor for top tier talent.

Totally. Coked out, injury-prone wrestlers are known for their financial stability.

Is that Matt Hardy in the Warning V1 tee?

Dave Youell 12-17-2008 08:21 AM

Ok,

I’m going to try to get this back to the topic

Personally I like this angle, it’s relevant so people can relate to it, it’s a paint by numbers angle, but it should be fun, this could of just been thrown together to get a HBK/JBL feud for Mania since Pritchard let the cat out of the bag.

It’s effectively Virgil/Ted all over again, Michaels will help JBL win matches and get his bags etc, eventually he’ll be forced to make a choice between taking out HHH or someone and turn on JBL

It’s simple storytelling in a believable environment, HBK’s promo made it sound plausible that he would be broke, the whole thing is fine from where I’m sitting

Kane Knight 12-17-2008 10:40 AM

It's relevant in the same way the Diva Search and Tuff Enufffff were.

Most people are effected in some way by the credit crunch, weather it be the price of stuff, if they’ve lost their job or if they’ve lost on investments on the markets, so it’s relevant to most people in some way or another.

I know/hope you’re being flippant about the diva search thing

Kane Knight 12-17-2008 01:27 PM

LOL you're kidding, right?
