Loss Posted December 28, 2011 Author Report Posted December 28, 2011 Paul Orndorff's poor career is going down in flames until he is approached by, and I quote, "GARY SPIVEY OF THE PSYCHIC COMPANIONS NETWORK?" I'm wondering when this period was when Orndorff had so many belts he couldn't carry them all, but this is the type of cheese that makes wrestling fun. He reminds him that he's Mr. Wonderful and suddenly, Paul Orndorff has a new lease on life! Quote
El-P Posted December 28, 2011 Report Posted December 28, 2011 Paul was 46 at the time, so it's not like he had much more years to give. Plus the injuries would force him to retire. I don't know where the "poor career" comes from, he got a good stint in WCW after his last comeback I thought, when he was already 43. Pretty Wonderful was an underrated tag team (can't wait to revisit them). His new music theme was glorious though. Quote
Loss Posted December 28, 2011 Author Report Posted December 28, 2011 I was referring to his losing streak. Quote
Tim Evans Posted August 4, 2012 Report Posted August 4, 2012 Who exactly is Gary Spivey? He looks like Danny's brother. The editing on the first part of this is great though. Quote
BackToBionic Posted December 29, 2012 Report Posted December 29, 2012 He was a television psychic. Quote
Zenjo Posted April 14, 2014 Report Posted April 14, 2014 Gary Spivey (no relation) had some interesting headwear shall we say. Orndorff's acting was so bad a porno director on a shoestring budget would've reshot the scene. I love goofy shit like this, it's part of what makes sports entertainment fun. Quote
PeteF3 Posted November 7, 2014 Report Posted November 7, 2014 If I were as upset as Orndorff was, I wouldn't appreciate the camera watching me. "Gary Spivey? Of the Psychic...Companions Network?" Poor Paul could barely remember his line. I'm ashamed to admit that I distinctly remember Ol' Brillo-head from when the Prevue Channel used to run almost nothing but psychic hotline ads in-between movie trailers. Spivey leads Orndorff through a Stuart Smalley affirmation routine, and by the end Orndorff IS Mr. Wonderful. Quote
Superstar Sleeze Posted November 21, 2014 Report Posted November 21, 2014 This was not even so bad it was good. Gary Spivey is just funny looking and has nothing that resembles charisma. I only know him because of this angle. Was he actually famous in 95? Why is a psychic a motivational speaker? This was as bad as everyone has ever said. Quote
PeteF3 Posted November 21, 2014 Report Posted November 21, 2014 I only know him because of this angle. Was he actually famous in 95? No. I was a very weird kid for knowing who he was. Even among the rather fringe celebrity-psychic community, he didn't have 1/10 of the presence and Q rating of Miss Cleo, who came along a few years later. Quote
Superstar Sleeze Posted November 21, 2014 Report Posted November 21, 2014 Exactly when I make references to telepathy or psychics, Miss Cleo is always my go-to. Spivey just looked like a styrofoam chia pet. Wrestlecrap had introduced me to this angle years ago and finally seeing it, it is most definitely Wrestlecrap. Quote
Mrzfn Posted December 5, 2016 Report Posted December 5, 2016 Yeah, for me this crosses the line of stupid fun into just stupid. Just bizarre, and that editing! Quote
