Loss Posted July 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 Tatanka is coming! Maybe it's my Native American heritage talking, but I thought this was really cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoe Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 I thought this was a tad boring, but it did kinda make Tatanka come across as a big deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeCampbell Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 I didn't think this was anything special, but it wasn't anywhere near as horrible as the Freebirds deal from the Clash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WingedEagle Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 Is it just me or could these vids have just as effectively set him up to come in as a heel, almost taken straight from Last of the Mohicans? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteF3 Posted July 4, 2013 Report Share Posted July 4, 2013 Is it just me or could these vids have just as effectively set him up to come in as a heel, almost taken straight from Last of the Mohicans? The one at the tail end of '91, DEFINITELY. I don't know if the matches would have been any good but Tatanka as an anti-American heel trying to take out Duggan and Slaughter sounds awesome on paper. They're going for the same vibe here as the El Matador vignettes, but these are better, with a bit better delivery from Tatanka. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garretta Posted December 9, 2015 Report Share Posted December 9, 2015 As usual, Pete's on the money with the similarities between these vignettes and the ones for El Matador. The thing is, we don't know Chris Chavis/Tatanka, so they don't mean as much as they did for Tito. They're more like the Skinner vignettes; Keirn talking about wrestling reptiles is nice, but how will that help him wrestle people? Maybe if we'd seen Tatanka as Chris Chavis, a wrestler who just happens to be a Native American, for a few months, then had vignettes like this, they'd mean more, because we'd know that Chavis has to do stuff like this in order to toughen up and survive in the WWF. I think both Chavis' and Tito's delivery was about the same; how good can one sound doing wooden dialogue like this in a studio during post-production?

soup23 Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 Tatanka was never exciting to me and why this was well done from a production standpoint, I found it to be dry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawho5 Posted March 14, 2018 Report Share Posted March 14, 2018 I still don't get what wrestling in the WWF will do to achieve the goals of any of the characters referenced in this thread. DIdn't Nash at one point start asking why everyone in the WWF had to have some sort of defining profession instead of just being wrestlers?
