Loss Posted June 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2011 Austin sort of explains his turn on Pillman, but Parker is the focus and it feels like they missed an opportunity, if they had to break them up, to really make the feud strong.

El-P Posted November 3, 2012 Report Share Posted November 3, 2012 Parker was a rather annoying character. I guess it was the whole point, but I'm not a big fan. Fuller is pretty good in the role though. Austin oozes star power already at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Ridge Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 I barely knew what Parker was even babbling on about. Austin brings things back into focus talking bout Pillman who was the reason they lost the belts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteF3 Posted February 10, 2014 Report Share Posted February 10, 2014 Parker has a court injunction prohibiting "Psycho Sid" (as he calls him) from coming within 50 feet of him. Meanwhile, Flyin' Brian earned his nickname because he can't hit any harder than a fruit fly. Austin cuts a better promo, running down and putting over Pillman at the same time. Steve does his best to save this angle, but the Blonds deserved a better climax more befitting of their Hollywood image. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garretta Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 What kind of promo is it when Colonel Parker makes more sense than Austin? Fuller reached back into the Tennessee Stud's book of quotations for the line about Pillman hitting no harder than a fruit fly, and that line was the best of the segment hands down. Meanwhile, if Pillman's a great wrestler and the toughest man you've ever known outside of yourself, Steve, why did you turn on him? Austin never really answers that question, because his supposed "reason" (Brian not being available when Austin and Regal lost the belts) is clearly not true. Pillman was right there at ringside, albeit with an injured foot. Also, Steve, if you're as great as you claim, shouldn't you have been able to adjust to a new partner, especially one as skilled as Regal? Seriously, the loss of the belts happened too long ago to really be an issue. They needed to create an entirely new reason for this feud, and as I said before Fuller's mere presence in Austin's life was plenty good enough. How Dusty whiffed on such a ready-made angle is beyond me. Even using the real-life reason for the breakup (Austin wants to go it alone, since he feels he's the bigger star) would have been better than what we got. So it was Fuller who first used the name "Psycho Sid", huh? Talk about being able to tell the future! I don't know what happened to turn Fuller and Sid on each other, but I can't wait to find out. I also wouldn't mind seeing a match between Sid and Austin, if one exists out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soup23 Posted May 27, 2017 Report Share Posted May 27, 2017 I'm still not buying the reasons here and it really feels like they just broke them up to push Austin up the card all of a sudden but then we know they got cold feet on that as well. Parker and Austin should work as a duo but they didn't have much chemistry here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
