I dunno, it was pretty funny I thought.

stupidest thing ever, and i am including mike awesome as 'that 70's guy' in that

I thought it was funny as well.

I personally didn't like it. The more I watch it, the less it annoys me. I don't know what the purpose behind this was -- perhaps to show more personality to R-Truth? I felt he was slowly building momentum with the extra time he had been given on SmackDown!, and really didn't need this. Especially considering Santino Marella and Cryme Tyme have him beat on the funniness.

Watching it, the best thought I had was that I wouldn't mind seeing a weekly segment where a guy pulls a rib on someone backstage, and they use it to just try and show more of each wrestler's personality.

When I heard "pretty ricky" when I was half watching Smackdown I was honestly thinking of this:

This thread needs more Ricky Morton.

If we could only be so lucky, AL.

Ok so if R-Truth had told security he was R-Truth he would have got into the building, but because he had goofy teeth and called himself Pretty Ricky he was not allowed in?? Whether amusing or not he still came across as a douche.

Pretty Ricky is 100x better than R-Truth.

So he's a 2.

Pretty Ricky is causing an uproar in the smark community:

I don't know where they're going with it, but right now it's better than what R-Truth is doing. R-Truth is going to keep saying "WHAT'S UP!" until he gets moved to ECW/fired in a year. Ron Killings had the same gimmick nine years ago in the WWE and it was bland then. Pretty Ricky will get people to pay attention to him in a way that is more than just kids yelling "WHAT'S UP!"

I dunno...It definitely didn't work for me. I pretty much hated that whole segment, because it looked like a cheap rip-off of Dave Chappelle's old "I'm Rick James, Bitch!" thing from his show...

I think the best direction for R-Truth right now, would be a serious heel turn. I didn't see any meaty work of his in TNA, but I heard that the best he ever looked was when he was playing a heel.

The dude is not young anymore. I believe he's older than D'Lo Brown. He can't be playing the plucky young gymnist rapper forever. Have someone call him a joke, and have him start praying on all the "joke" characters on the SmackDown! brand (Kung Fu Naki, Jimmy Wang Yang, etc.). Eventually move him into a feud with Rey Mysterio, continuing on Jericho's objections to Rey, a little bit, by having him talk about "The Truth" and how Mysterio represents something less wholesome than the truth.

lol. What is wrong with you people!?!?

I'm a HUGE Santino mark and this made me laugh as much as Santino does. It was genuinely a thousand times funnier than anything WWE tries to write on it's own.

When he tries to jump the barricade and then starts calling for security along with the guy. :lol:

There's nothing funny about perpetuating a negative racial stereotype against blacks. And no, they do not do the same thing as I'm arguing against, with Cryme Tyme, lest that argument comes up.

Oh God. Again with the "it's not funny cause it's a stereotype!" shit. Really people. My God...

What negative stereotype does Pretty Ricky perpetuate? Blacks with bad teeth?

I don't even know. The sensitivity regardless though is just getting tiring.

I don't really find it funny to be honest. Don't really understand what it's all about tbh, that could be why.

Hahahaha his government name is DELICIOUS

I can't see how this isn't gonna cause a lawsuilt.

I kinda liked it

I was not that big a fan of R-Truth. Him becoming Ugly Betty makes me like him even less.

:lol:
