Loss Posted July 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 Bret and Owen are reunited! Vince and Stan Lane interview them from the Jumbotron, where they appear to be superimposed. They are against a blue backdrop announcing that they are challenging the Quebecers for the tag titles at the Royal Rumble. Owen continues hinting a heel turn, talking about how it doesn't matter if what he said was true and that he will be leading the way from here forward with Bret right behind him.

Kevin Ridge Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 Bret and Owen have made up their differences just in time for the holidays. They will become a tag team and go after the belts at the Rumble. Owen says it will be both Bret and his year in 94. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteF3 Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 Stan Lane is such a phony. I always thought this teased-heel-turn-then-abandonment-then-real-heel-turn move was a little puzzling, like they decided to reset things, but I think it works. A brother-vs.-brother match needed a lot more build than a typical Memphis heel turn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dooley Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 Love Owen's continued subtle heeling here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marty Posted December 8, 2015 Report Share Posted December 8, 2015 Owen was so great here! In kayfabe, I looked at it as "he really doesn't mean it when it comes to patching things up". Bret was being naive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garretta Posted February 19, 2017 Report Share Posted February 19, 2017 I looked at it as more of Bret not wanting to fight Owen and doing whatever he could so he wouldn't have to. If it had been anyone else but Owen I would agree with you, Marty. Owen has to dial the rhetoric back a bit under the circumstances, but his heelishness continues to show through when he talks about leading the way with Bret behind him and how it doesn't matter if the stuff about Bret getting all the recognition and him getting none is true. Anyone who can watch this and not figure out exactly what's going to happen at the Rumble simply isn't paying attention. I agree about Lane being a phony as a broadcaster. That's likely why he didn't last long, even in a place like the WWF where phonies tended to find a home. I could be mistaken, but I don't think they referred to him as a former wrestler at any point, even though they could have used his past as a way to establish credibility for him in the booth. I remember not liking him very much on play-by-play, and I can't believe that he'd be much better as a color guy, although I suppose we'll find out as we head into '94.

soup23 Posted August 16, 2018 Report Share Posted August 16, 2018 Nice promo with Owen being subtle in saying he will lead the team. Setting the seeds for what is to come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
