Disco Inferno was an awesome undercard character.

Come on, LAra, history is written by the victors. If WCW had won the war, people'd be bitching about how unfair it was that a Zombie Cowboy was in the list.

I, for one, would have hired Disco years ago if I ran the WWE.

It's loose, I'll admit it. Hassan was loosely pro-America before the writers figured out the general fan population couldn't decipher he was.

Hassan was one of my absolute favorite characters. It really is a shame that the CW was so sensitive about it. Could have been huge. Did you hear the boos that dude got?
That Duggan heel turn was obviously just an effort to get an already boring Jim Duggan a little bit of heat, and I wouldn't even call it a marginal success. |

You don't think doing that Hassan angle wasn't to get cheap heat?
Did they need it? Fuck no. But they did it anyway. |

Not at first, not really. When they sent in Daivari on a suicide mission against The Undertaker though, it got a little crazy. Still, I loved it.

When Hassan started, a lot of his promos made perfect sense, and he wasn't even really saying anything to be considered a heel. His tactics in the ring made him out to be a hypocrite, which is what ultimately MADE him a heel in my estimation. What made it so surreal for me was that the fans booed the shit out of him before he even got IN the ring, which kind of made the stuff that he was bitching about valid.

Also Hassan was the last great thing in the WWE.

Schivone had 10 times better talent than most of the announcers today have (West, JR, King, Coach).
And Alienoid, I have a slight problem with your list: Where's Katie Vick? |

Honestly, Lara, I think it's just because Gilberti works for TNA as a producer.

Muhammad Hassan was a great character. It was obviously done to be controversial, and the WWE got real chicken shit with it in the end.
I loved it when Hassan was completely justified. Then he went to Canada and got cheered. I think they should have avoided the obvious thing and have him insult the Canadian fans, but they did. They should have made Hassan a massive babyface everywhere but America. |

Oh, no doubt. It's really frustrating, actually. I was watching a DVD the other day, and was reminded of the horrible Dudleys vs. La Resistance feud. Bubba Ray was actually meant to be a babyface, and this was the justification he gave the feud: "We hate them because they're French!"

This is indeed a crime. I was disgusted when I read a report that stated that the WWE believes Kelly Kelly can be a modern day Miss Elizabeth. I wasn't even watching then, so never had any particular attachment to Elizabeth, but even I was offended at that notion.

I'm just offended that they fired Brooke in light of how much hotter she is than Kelly. I won't go out on the limb and say Brooke's more talented, but it would be an easy conclusion to roll into as well (seeing as Kelly's next to worthless).
Then again, they fired Ariel, too. Same problem, compounded by the fact that Ariel is more talented in addition to being much less generic than the whole Expose combined. |

On a semi-related note, Layla has really grown on me.

J.R. does still happen to know that not every move of all time is a sidewalk slam, though.

All I know is that the Disco Duck was better than anything WWE has done in the past 5 years.

What about when Disco Inferno had to pull out a blueprint to remind himself how to apply a leg lock? That's pretty brilliant.
