Loss Posted January 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 It's the UWWWF! Ivan is a heel again and hates both America and his nephew Nikita. It makes my head hurt to try to make sense of this in the context of the 1988 babyface turn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteF3 Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 That wasn't about Ivan loving America, that was purely about burning hatred for Paul Jones. The team with the JYD was just an "enemy of my enemy is my friend" incident. Ivan with words for his former nephew Nikita. Ivan throws in some cheap-heat support for Iraq as his babyface turn is more or less Stalinized from history. This is a legitimately good promo from Ivan underneath all that.

soup23 Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 Not a bad promo from Ivan. I will admit to sampling all discs when I get them in and I noticed that Albano graphic and theme filled the last few discs of this set so it looks like a lot more of these is to come.

Kevin Ridge Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Ivan has some lessons for Nikita Koloff. He is upset that Nikita has embraced the American life. He feels like he is responsible for Nikita’s success. Captain Lou is not a good interview host. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garretta Posted March 3, 2015 Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 So they recognized Nikita's US title reign, they recognized his face turn, but they didn't recognize Ivan's own face turn and barely alluded to the fact that it was Albano who managed Ivan to the World title? Just checking. Ivan's always impressed me with his promo ability, and even at this late date he can still get it done on the mic. As for Capper, he's there because of his mainstream celebrity that came through his association with Cyndi Lauper, that's all. He has nothing to offer as a performer anymore, at least not the way Abrams is choosing to use him. He could have managed, since the tapings (at least most of them) were done at the Penta Hotel in New York right near his home, but Abrams chose to use him like this instead, or maybe this is what Lou himself wanted. Either way, his rants don't do anyone any good, since he can't back them up even by proxy. They'd have been better off with a Gene Okerlund type doing the interviews.

drew wardlaw Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 This was a fine enough promo, I don't have too much to say about it really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
