I think this angle is laughable since even the dumbest WWE mark knows HBM isn't broke.

This angle would work better if it was the OTHER rocker. Very believeable.

Seriously though, has any else had the thought cross their mind that this angle might lead to HBK versus JBL at WrestleMania?
I'm not saying it's a good idea, but it's something the WWE would do (especially if they have some sort of alternate plan for Undertaker aside from UT versus HBK). Think about it. HBK is JBL's reluctant bitch for a few months until he snaps and breaks their rule. JBL tries to make his life a living hell and drive him out of the WWE, and they make a match at Mania where the winner get a million dollars or some bullshit. Bradshaw is an ex-Texan, now residing in New York City, which will draw huge heat from the Texas WM25 crowd, while HBK will garner the obvious face pops. God I hope I'm wrong. |

I'm not sure who I'd cheer for. On the one hand, JBL was smart enough to leave Texas. On the other hand, leaving Texas means his belligerence and low IQ might spread.

If HBK starts carrying around a shoe shining box my opinion of this angle may change.
The visual of HBK shining Kane's boots is worth an easy 5.0 in the Nielsens. |

Imagine if he started a new business on Raw, and each week, he tossed up new schemes to make money.

I know this is leading towards HBK giving JBL the Sweet Chin Music, and going back to "I don't care, God will look after me somehow" Shawn Michaels, but I would love for this to lead to a full-blown heel turn for Shawn Michaels. HBK with his hair cut short, always wearing expensive business suits, and riding proudly in the limo with JBL would be incredible stuff.
Regardless, I'm hoping that this at least amounts to a backstage encounter with Chris Jericho, who calls HBK on finally smartening up and not listening to the fans anymore. Speaking of Chris Jericho, while he and Randy Orton seemed aligned for one week, it was the most I've been interested in Randy Orton in some time. Jericho and Orton have often taken the same position on things recently -- even if they don't see eye-to-eye all the time. If Jericho and Orton had kept that relationship going, and forged one with JBL, to ensure that they are the powers that control RAW, this angle would be cooler, because you'd have Chris Jericho, Randy Orton, JBL & Shawn Michaels (reluctantly) as the top heel force of RAW. If we get some sort of stable facing Randy Orton's Legacy group, then Shawn Michaels would make a great face for it. Ted DiBiase would be a logical addition to the face side of things as well, and if he bailed out Shawn Michaels so he didn't need to work for JBL, it would put the fans on DiBiase's side a fair bit. |

I think the money angle would be HBK and DiBiase Sr. trying to bring Manu to Christ.

Next week, I'm thinking that Shawn Michaels might help JBL win his match against Rey Mysterio...by kicking him in the face. That's the technical win via DQ for JBL, and HBK gets a little satisfaction by doing something I think we're meant to think his character wants to do.

That certainly wouldn't conflict with his speeches or jeopardise his new-found income.

So wait, you're actually suggesting the WWE should make no sense on purpose?
Or... you're hoping it'll not make sense? Or... you're guessing it won't make sense, thus being pessimistic...? I don't know. |

The small font gets it. I actually don't think it would be that bad, if rushing towards the ending of an HBK/JBL feud. But I don't want to see that go through to WrestleMania, either. The WWE is getting worse and worse at having things sorted in time for WrestleMania.

I couldn't find HBK's promo at Armageddon believable at ALL.It wasn't the stuff he was saying,but you could tell he was talking shit.

Care to explain to me why that's a straw-man? Because it seemed you were the one that went off and started talking about sense like it was relevant. Douche.
It's also sad that you seem to have a hunger for straw men. That would be one of the many things to cut out of your diet. |

I get what you're saying. I think a lot of it, for me, anyway, was that they were grabbing at anything to make this angle make sense. And that they decide to finally tease the HBK heel thing again with JBL, of all people.

If we're lucky, we'll find out that HBM was lying to his loyal fans and just wanted the extra cash. That would totally make this angle work for me.

All of this is the fault of Shawn Michaels, really. Not for being broke, obviously, but if he would just toss aside his stupid Christian beliefs and get over himself, he could have a normal heel turn just like anybody else and they wouldn't have to come up with these ridiculous angles to soothe him. What a geek.
