No mean feat.

He just sounds stupid on the mic most of the time. A mid carder for most of his career and a main eventer for a few years because of that ridiculous gimmick that a lot of people liked **** knows why. Has some of the most memorable matches ever but I don't like his promos at all.

GIMH · 08-06-2011, 02:52 PM

There's a difference between 'I don't like' and not being good.

Foley's job was never to be a main eventer. Even when he was, that wasn't his job. He was a kingmaker. Put everyone he faced over in and out of the ring. The intesity of his promos and the pain he was prepared to go through demonstrated how tough his opponents must be to beat him.

Who were the three biggest stars of the Attitude era? Triple H, The Rock, Stone Cold. Guess who put them all over?

Stone Cold's first opponent as champ? Dude Love in a couple of absolute wars.

The Rock was made by his wars with Foley.

And Triple H was made by Foley twice, first in his rise to credibility in the summer of 97, and secondly in cementing himself as a bona fide badass in 99-2000.

And if he was just a ****ing midcarder, then why on earth was his first feud in the WWF with THE UNDERTAKER?

While we're at it, can't stand that **** Shawn Michaels, got over purely on his amusing gammy eye and entertaining theme song, fair dues he was decent on the stick but got by throughout his entire career on a three move moveset, WAC.

Okay. I don't like his WWE character/persona and I think he is ****.

I don't like your CW persona and think you're a ****. GAGFC.

isn't thats what most wrestlers are like atleast (WWE/F) You have 3-4 moves that crowd identifies with you rest is generic punching/kicking/bumping/jumping.

GIMH · 13-06-2011, 05:09 AM

whooooosh

Manee · 14-06-2011, 05:25 AM

Interesting Raw. The whole R Truth thing is quite interesting. The thing which interests me most though is the Ryder Revolution.

Zack Ryder for WWE Champion!

Majin · 14-06-2011, 03:06 PM

off topic I know but just dropping a post to say happy birthday to GIMH, aware there's a thread in the other forum but figure it's more appropriate in here seeing as any good birthday will end with him in a Scott Hall state, so yeah. hope you have a good one dude!

GIMH · 17-06-2011, 02:16 PM

Just seen this now. Appreciate it hugely. And the Scott Hall thing was spot on. Thanks

Majin · 21-06-2011, 03:50 AM

"Really?"

"Riley!"

"Randy!"

"RILEY!!"

"RANDY!!!"

My face during this exchange:

"JIMMY! JIMMY!! JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY!!!11!!!1"

me:

Did I mention that I love crazy R-Truth? Because I completely ****ing love crazy R-Truth.
