Whoever mentioned that the racial card can only take you so far is right. After awhile the Nation of Domination got really old. That idea was just dumb.
During Raw my husband was going off about Hassan and how he hated him. I pointed out two things, first, that was the entire idea, the guy comes across great as a heal, and second, during the original Gulf War we had the Iron Shiek and that idea played out for some time and it worked. That is one of the reasons that I think Hassan will work, even if his gimmick is a recycled one.
My first thought about Davari was "I wonder if he is really translating what Hassan is saying or just going off on his own tangent saying something else that is really going to get their asses kicked when people figure out what he is saying"
The promo's really work.
The first one, I was sitting there thinking "you know, I see his point, he's right" and I wasn't sure right off if he was supposed to be a face or heal or where it was going to go. I think that was the point of it all.
I hope that he is as good as being reported to pull all this off. I think Hassan and Davari vs. HHH and Flair would be really cool to see. Is Davari supposed to be a wrestler or a manager/valet sort of person? Anyone know?
