Loss Posted March 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 The Rock & Rolls are doing a promo. The Bodies, Eaton and Cornette hit the ring and goad them into a fight. This is a great brawl with the Rock & Rolls holding their own at first and finally getting beaten up by the heels. The Stud Stable then come out with chairs and clear the ring. The Bodies leave and now the Stud Stable are doing the same to the Rock & Rolls. Business feels like it's pickin' up in SMW! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shoe Posted June 14, 2011 Report Share Posted June 14, 2011 Fuller's chairshots were just brutal. I really felt bad for Eaton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Ridge Posted July 4, 2013 Report Share Posted July 4, 2013 Well played by the Bodies to convince the Express to come in the ring. Bodies after the man advantage and use it to take out the Express. Stud Stable show up with chairs. Fuller was just laying the chair shots in.

PeteF3 Posted October 25, 2013 Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 This has been the best-booked feud of the first quarter of the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WingedEagle Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 This has been the best-booked feud of the first quarter of the year. What he said. We get a fiery promo from Morton about how far back the feud with Cornette & the Midnights goes. They then brawl with all 3 Bodies and get laid out, which brings out the Studds with chairs and the Bodies take some sick shots before clearing and allowing the Studds to turn their attention to the RNR and lay them out as well. We should all do Fuller curls for angles like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soup23 Posted January 10, 2015 Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 SMW decides to fire back just when USWA and New Japan seem to be within earshot of overtaking their throne of feud of the year. Another wild pull apart here with all teams getting mixed up and going after each other. This has been a great period for angles and promotions shining.

GSR Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 Rock & Roll Express are out cutting a post match interview and Ricky Morton says that the only thing on their mind is to get the SMW tag team titles round their waist. Jim Cornette may talk about the Heavenly Bodies being a corporation, but it doesn’t matter to them as they’ve been through a lot with the Midnight Express, things haven’t changed, just the name. He then tells Cornette any time, any place he wants to put the belts up they’ll be ready. They’re interrupted by Cornette who is in the ring with the Bodies and Bobby Eaton and he challenges them to get in the ring right now. Bob Caudle says that they’re outnumber 4 on 2, Cornette calls them yellow and Morton responds that ‘sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do’ and they make their way to the ring to accept the challenge. It doesn’t take long before the Bodies and Eaton gain the advantage, then Cornette joins in the attack with his racket and laying the boots into the Rock & Rolls. Robert Fuller, Jimmy Golden and Dutch Mantel come out and the Studs start clobbering the Bodies with chairs (Prichard and Lane protect themselves, but Eaton takes some pretty brutal shots from Fuller). When the Bodies flee, they turn their attention to the Rock & Rolls, destroy them with chair shots and leave them laying in the ring. Good angle, the Stud Stable finally will get their acknowledgement and after the attack on the Rock & Rolls there is no way they will be turned face (which at times looked as though it could have happened with this storyline) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garretta Posted June 23, 2016 Report Share Posted June 23, 2016 I didn't like this one bit, and I didn't think it was well done. Sure, maybe the beatdown needed to happen to make sure that the Studs didn't end up babyfaces, but not this way. You don't make your top faces out to be so stupid that they willingly jump into a seven-on-two (counting Corny and Dutch) massacre. Morton and Gibson weren't being valiant, they were just being idiotic, and they certainly paid for it. To make things worse, no one whatsoever came to their aid, even after it was clear that the Bodies had left and weren't coming back. What kind of message does that send to the fans? What it tells me is, "Why should the rest of the babyfaces get involved with two guys so dumb that they get suckered by a bunch of playground insults into a fight they know they can't possibly win?" Here's how you do this angle right: Rock 'n' Roll is out, with Morton talking about the Bodies like he does here. Suddenly, the Studs and Dutch attack from behind. While the fans' attention is on the scene at the desk, the Bodies make their way to the ring, and once the Studs have their fill, they throw Ricky and Robert in, and the Bodies take their shots. Smothers, Lee, and the cavalry show up to rescue their friends, and the Studs and Bodies rule the ring. But instead of celebrating, they turn on each other and fight back to the locker room. All you lose is a few seconds of token offense from Rock 'n' Roll, and you have the added advantage of the Studs not being able to definitively run off the Bodies, which keeps both of those teams equally hot. As it is now, the champions are idiots and their number one contenders live in fear of the team you're basically using as a third wheel. This is fine if you want the Studs to get the belts, but you (Corny) want the team you manage (the Bodies) to get them. I guess this will make the Bodies' next championship win more of a surprise when it inevitably comes, but it comes at the cost of making your champions and top faces too damn stupid to live, and that's never good.
