![]() During that BFG thread, everyone who bitched about Rhino winning was basically trying to make the point that he wasn't a legit contender. And that really, the only thing that could make it worse would be to hotshot the belt back onto JJ; basically admitting their own mistake and making their "BIGGEST PPV EVENT EVER" pretty much meaningless, Bobby Goulet said it best: Quote:
NOTE: I reserve the right to take all of this back should Monty Brown win the belt and actually get a big push. I feel like Tina Turner...I just can't help loving that crazy black man. |

well i like the x belt better anyway, this is kind of like the old wcw where hogan had the world belt or one of his friends while all the good matches were for the tv US or cruiserweight belts.

WCW in 2000 wasn't this shitty. It was pretty shitty, but this is a level even WCW couldn't accomplish.

Second, I have never been to the TalkTNA forums, and in fact, do not know what that is. I assume it's in reference to the forums on the TNA website, but like I said, I don't know (and am too lazy to confirm). Third, how do you know it sucks? You haven't even SEEN the show yet. You read about it in spoilers: big fucking deal. For all we know, Rhino could come off as Hulk Fucking Hogan in his main event match. It's unlikely, but like I said, you don't know because you haven't seen it yet. |

Being a main event player has nothing to do with being in the main event ALL THE TIME. Look at Kurt Angle, Kane, Big Show, Eddie Guerrero, Chris Benoit, The Undertaker and Randy Orton: all are former World Champions, all have the ability and credibility to main event a PPV, but that doesn't mean they do it all the time. It simply means that they have face value in the company, and any lower-card feud that they partake in will only be that much better because of that face value. This is what they have done for Rhino. He is now a former NWA World Champion, who won the title against all odds, and lost the title thanks to help from Jarrett's cronies. You can't try and say that this makes him look weaker than he was before BFG, because that would be bullshit, and there would be no logical reasoning to support that. He can now feud with someone else and MAKE HIS WAY toward the main event again. Still sore over the BFG thread? Aww. |

Dude, first of all, stop acting like a child and telling people to suck your dick. You're like 20 years old or something. Chill out.

I don't know what being over enough to have an emotional Title win is. You just make that up or something? It's just a piss poor excuse for hot shotting the Title to please the crowd on hand. Short Term Pops for fans does not = Long Term Sucess. Of course the fucking fans would enjoy it at the show. Who wouldn't? That's a really dumb example and it's not smart to do shit like that because it takes away VALUE from the Title. The WWE has NEVER EVER EVER put the Title on a mid-carder that wasn't over to the mass audience out of nowhere. And it's been working fine for them so far ![]() Quote:
![]() Hell TNA didn't even have enough faith in the guy to keep the Title on him for even three weeks. Those WWE guys have been seen at the top by millions of fans, fans have seen them in the Four Horsemen, w/ The Radicals, w/ Evolution, w/ the nWo. All groups that were booked strongly and with other credible workers. Those guys have been in the spotlight many times on a national level. They've feuded and beaten top guys, they've won various Titles from WWE and WCW, they played major parts in angles from WWE and WCW and they've been doing that consistently for the longest time. Maybe not Orton, but he's definatelt heading that way Yea. those WWE guys have face value to a company, but a guy that was nothing to begin with and is nothing once again, aka Rhino, really doesn't have that face value, does he? And that's not his fault. It's just that TNA has nobody that could actually give any wrestler any sort of face value. Quote:
Wouldn't winning the Title "against all odds" mean that you overcame all odds in the Title match? He overcame Jarrett, but when the "odds" got stacked against him at the TNA Special, he sure didn't overcome them. To bad for TNA, cause they might of redeemed themselves if they booked it like that Quote:

I think he's implying that you said something that made you seem very sore during the Bound For Glory Pay Per View. Thus he belives he "owned" you at something.
Or he's actually coming on to you. Take your pick. |

I somehow doubt they'll do as well as Smackdown.
Smackdown is crap, but it's established crap. TNA is unknown crap. |

TNA isn't crap. It's pretty sad that people here overshadow all the good wrestling matches and shit all over the product just because someone they don't like is champion. But then again I hardly expected anything but negativity.

Blah, Smackdown Title wasn't really their main Title at the time, but,
JBL was in the middle of controversy with the media. Vince McMahon saw the ATTENTION he was getting outside the WWE and decided to play off it. The character of Bradshaw had been pretty over, along with Farooq, as part of the APA. Crowd loved them every week the appeared. He got a string of strong wins against some of the WWE's top guys. So you knew he had a pretty dam good chance of taking the Title off Guerrero at the PPV. The match was built up, so it wasn't like JBL walked in Sunday Night and won the Title. |

Seemed more like it to me. That would be like Gregory Helms winning the title now, and you arguing he was massively over as the Hurricane and picked up a few big victories against HHH.
Yeah, it may be true, but it's still not enough to remove him from midcard status in the casuals' eyes. |

In fact, come to think of it..it's almost the exact same.
Let's just say Greg Helms picked up some victories over..say..HBK and Flair. And then won the title at the next PPV. |

Just think if Greg Helms got a major sudden push to the moon, how much different would it be than JBL?

Also remember, JBL could cut a great promo and that got him over too. And Smackdown really had no major heels at the time and they were desperate for a guy who could carry that brand. And he actually did fairly good for the show hw was on. The numbers jumped up a little mid reign-end reign |
