So how far could "The Legacy" go?
 
So I was watching the RAW recall and I was wondering with Sim Snuka possibly joining The Legacy stable and I was wondering, how far and how many people could they get to join? I mean they could call up David and Reid Flair, and isnt Big John Studd's son part of Tough Enough hey could call him up. Maybe they can see if they could convince Animal's son to try and join the WWE, I think I've heard Kevin Von Erich's son wanted to be a wrestler, and isnt D H Smith still floating around? They could even call back Brian Lawler to wrestle under his real name. So my question is, do you think they should just keep adding names to it or just keep it the way it is?

4-5 members is probably ideal.

Funky Fly 12-18-2008 01:15 AM

34578359 guys in the stable would not work too well. I know that's what the Natural Born Thrillers did, but most of them were awesome. I really don't see David Flair doing too much for any legacy.

I'm really surprised they never brought back Grandmasta Sexay. He's too old now though.

Jeritron 12-18-2008 01:28 AM

There should be an angle where they try to bake a cake with a file in it and mail it to Nick Hogan. George the Animal Steele's son (to be played by Albert) eats the whole thing with the file and they spent an entire Raw waiting for him to shit it out.

Vastardikai 12-18-2008 02:25 AM

As far as Animal's son, I think he's gonna be making much more money in the NFL. If he goes into the 'E, it's gonna be as a last resort.

thedamndest 12-18-2008 02:42 AM

We are talking a Butkus award winning linebacker.

Juan 12-18-2008 02:43 AM

Yup. Dude's a BEAST.

They did, for two weeks. Then he no-showed and they fired him for being unreliable.

Also, let's keep the stable around 5 guys, max. The last thing we need is an unendable nWo mess.

Tazz Dan 12-18-2008 06:43 AM

I'm sure this group is just a ploy to get HHH and Stephs kids involved in an angle. Their daughter will make a surprise entrance at the Royal Rumble eliminating everyone INCLUDING HHH, thus turning heel and joining the group. HHH will win the belt at NWO and they will feud through to Mania where he will bury his own child in a 30 second squash match.

Mark my words, it will happen!!!

Afterlife 12-18-2008 07:25 AM

Poppycock.

Vince Russo is writting this down as we speak.:rofl:

<font color=goldenrod>They wrote an article on WWE.com teasing Snuka joining and also asking what would happen if they group spread even further and they got the Colons and Natalya to join. I don't see that happening though, nor should it as the group would become too big.

I figure they will go with Orton, Rhodes, Manu, and Snuka up until DiBiase returns. At first, I could see DiBiase being a face of some sort...defying the group because Orton put Ted on the shelf. Meanwhile, Orton says he isn't cut out for the group anyway because Ted's dad is the only one not a HOFer, etc.

Ultimately, Ted builds some steam only to turn and join anyway. If Matt Hardy is still ECW champion, I'd like to see him possibly use the Raw/ECW exchange to go for that. Meanwhile, Punk wins the IC Title and so Cody Rhodes goes for that, while Manu and Snuka become the tag team of the group and go for the tag belts. I think wrestling works best when there is a stable trying to win and control everything.</font>

Kane Knight 12-18-2008 09:22 AM

A better question is "What happens when Randy Orton gets suspended?"

Danny Electric 12-18-2008 10:46 AM

Where the hell is DH Smith anyway?

Hanso Amore 12-18-2008 11:17 AM

I am really like Cody lately as Orton's lackey. Manu I am low on...for the "power" of the group he is not all that big or strong. I think orton is probably stronger. Snuka is a wash. When Ted Jr comes back that would be an ok group....they are just lacking elite talent.

Orton as the boss is top notch.

Pricless as tag team champs would be a great fit again. They are great as Orton's remoras.

Honestly, Manu and Snuka are crap, if they had one more elite talent that group could be amazing...Maybe Harry Smith could be more of the Power they need, but he is not exactly huge himself.

He's so good he doesn't need to be on TV to set the world on fire.

He had a Wellness Policy violation whilst on Raw, then got traded to SmackDown! in the Supplemental Draft Lottery and hasn't been seen since. There's still rumours of a New Hart Foundation being set up when/if he returns.

As for The Legacy, I can see Snuka being courted as a member until someone discovers that he is adopted and therefore not a 'pureblood'. Thus he is kicked out of the group. Perhaps Ted, Jr. could be the man to discover this and use it as leverage to get into the group.

BigDaddyCool 12-18-2008 12:58 PM

There are also rumors Vince is pissed that Smith isn't on tv because Smith is a "legacy kid." Legacy as in multi generational wrestler, not nessicarily part of the stable. Though a new Hart Foundation would be a good foil to the Legacy.

KingofOldSchool 12-18-2008 03:15 PM

I hope they bring up Mike Rotundo's son and him and DiBiase Jr. can form Priceless Inc.

Kane Knight 12-18-2008 04:19 PM

The Hart Foundation is a bit of a stretch. It's fallen apart like twice already.

The Franchise 12-18-2008 04:22 PM

I honestly don't see Manu or Snuka going further than a tag-title reign. Rhodes will probably be IC Champion at some point and DiBiase Jr will definitely reach that level, maybe, just maybe if everything works out...he will become a World Title contender one day.

JoeCool 12-18-2008 04:39 PM

They should bring back the Million Dollar Championship and put in on Dibiase Jr.

It's not going to be a stable this time; just a tag team with Natalya as a valet. They've been working dark matches for a while, and are together in FCW. Without Teddy Hart around to fuck it up, I don't see why it wouldn't happen this time.

This is actually what I think will happen. My guess is that we see a face Ted DiBiase to play off Orton kicking his head in, and to promote The Marine 2. If Ted is a lower card heel, that movie is going to sell nothing. If DiBiase is a face that teams with Cena to battle The Legacy, it might actually have a chance, albeit a small one.

I'm not sure what all this "Sim Snuka" stuff is about, but I'm assuming that Deuce came forward about being adopted by Jimmy Snuka, and growing up in the business. Sim Snuka will probably join the group, and team with Manu as the tag team, which I think would be very good for both of those guys.

I don't get why people are down on Manu. The fella can speak, and in the ring, he can last. He's only very young and still pretty inexperience. All things considered, I'd say he's doing really well with what he's been given to do. A few World Tag Team Title runs, followed by an IC Title run, and I think we'll be seeing him do some good work on a very consistent basis.

I'd leave the stable as just those guys, but if they were going to add more, I think they should just go all-out with it. Keep it simple, regardless of what extreme it is. Either it's a small pack of legacy wrestlers working together, or it's a movement involving pretty much all of them to wipe out the older stars.

Chavo Guerrero could become a chapter leader over on SmackDown!/ECW, with The Colons joining as the tag team, and Jesse turning on Festus to reveal his last name to the world (and it's not "Dalton"). I'm not sure how good she is in the ring, but maybe the WWE could consider hiring Stacy Colon to work in the Divas Division, or something.

JoeCool 12-19-2008 02:35 AM

Alright, I have the perfect idea. Ted Dibiase Jr. should return as the Million Dollar Champion and have Virgil's son as his bodyguard. He mistreats Virgil's son really badly and has him perform demeaning tasks. Then Rowdy Roddy Piper's son tells Virgil's son that he's better than that and doesn't deserve the abuse. Virgil's son should then feud over the Million Dollar Championship with Ted Dibiase Jr. and eventually win it. Then, at the end of the feud, have Repo Man's son cause Virgil's son to lose the title back to Ted Dibiase Jr. and then just make him a jobber.

Mr. Nerfect 12-19-2008 02:53 AM

If these guys were on ECW, I think the angle would be a lot more exciting. That way they could appear on all three brands, as per the talent exchange, and terrorise guys on all three brands. It'd get the younger guys to pay their dues more quickly, too, by working the larger schedules, and giving some justification for their early rise through the ranks.

Watching SmackDown!, I've decided that I definitely would not mind seeing Jesse Gordy join the group.

BigDaddyCool 12-19-2008 09:18 AM

God noid, why do we just put everyone on fucking ECW so they can all appear on on 3 brands. You are a fucking broken record with that shit.

Kane Knight 12-19-2008 11:43 AM

I think he's got a point. Let's put Triple H on all three brands so he can terrorise the roster.

parkmania 12-19-2008 04:25 PM

Title unification match, anyone?

Xero 12-19-2008 05:18 PM

No.

St. Jimmy 12-19-2008 05:19 PM

The only people I have suggested that for are Mickie James, Victoria and Randy Orton's group -- because I feel exposure across all three brands would really help them out.

I'm starting to think that you obsess over my posts, and go over them again and again, with growing love. Then, because you can't accept your own sexuality, you snap at me with aggressive behaviour.

:y:

He's one of those guys that I really enjoy watching when he's actually doing something, but on the other hand, I can't really bring myself to care too much about him for the sake of an internet thread, for example.

I think he's good, but to a degree.

.44 Magdalene 12-20-2008 02:18 AM

I think I mostly like him because he doesn't look like a miniature version of Randy Orton, unlike the rest of the stable
