KrisZ Posted September 8, 2013 Report Posted September 8, 2013 This isn't DB vs. the WWE because almost the whole roster is with him in his battle but can't help him.
rovert Posted September 8, 2013 Report Posted September 8, 2013 An image for Dustin vs Randy is the first thing on WWE.com right now. If they give it time it could be really good. Yeah Dustin legit fighting for his job back and Cody's acting informed by just that AND his own career given a substantive purpose could really reap something special.
Slasher Posted September 8, 2013 Report Posted September 8, 2013 This isn't DB vs. the WWE because almost the whole roster is with him in his battle but can't help him. That is the point. Rhodes is the one guy right now who CAN do something about it. He is already fired. I guess they can still do the angle after Goldust loses, but I see it as an unnecessary thing. Remember, Maddox said Goldust has to win AND Cody has to apologize in order for him to get his job back. So I guess Goldust has to win, only for Cody to refuse to apologize... hopefully leading to the NOC scenario. Which means Orton has to lose to Dustin Rhodes, not a really appealing scenario... even if it is because DB helped Goldust.
Matt D Posted September 8, 2013 Report Posted September 8, 2013 I can't imagine they'd put Goldust over the champ in this setting. Maybe if BD costs Orton the match it'd be good.

Right, BUT Cody doesnt have to have his job back to run-in during that match...having him fired AND then screwing Goldust over against Orton to get his job back would make him run in and cost Orton the match 10 times better...that crowd would pop HUGE...then HHH takes it back the next night....KICKS that angle into next gear!!!
Sidebottom Posted September 8, 2013 Report Posted September 8, 2013 Dusty, Dustin and Cody vs Shield would be a riot...
Smack2k Posted September 8, 2013 Author Report Posted September 8, 2013 That would be a riot....and could have a good draw to it if built right.....but the Shield would HAVE to win unless the Rhodes do some crazy amount of cheating and screwing around to win....
KrisZ Posted September 9, 2013 Report Posted September 9, 2013 Cody Rhodes/Runnels @CodyRhodesWWE 2h I in NO way asked @DUSTIN_RHODES1 to help me with my former employer, the conflict between @TripleH & the Rhodes family dates back.....to 1977, and it didn't involve EITHER him or me. I love my flesh/blood Battle Born Brother. I will watch #RAW waving the "R" banner as.....he faces @RandyOrton and as for this fly-by-night @BradMaddoxIsWWE GOLDY always has his paint. We work for a living. #RhodesDynasty
subatomic_elbow Posted September 9, 2013 Report Posted September 9, 2013 I'm watching RAW for the first time since the first Retro Raw because of Goldust... and my delusional hope that Dusty will be involved. What I wouldn't give for a nasty, bloody Rhodes/Shield brawl.
rovert Posted September 9, 2013 Report Posted September 9, 2013 I know point it out on this forum is like shooting ducks in a barrel. But it is amazing to see how much anticipation there is for Goldust's return in comparison to Edge for the level of star Edge is supposedly at even when you fact in the gulf in storyline support.
Ricky Jackson Posted September 10, 2013 Report Posted September 10, 2013 "You screwed Bret Beard" Great sign.
goodhelmet Posted September 10, 2013 Report Posted September 10, 2013 I know point it out on this forum is like shooting ducks in a barrel. But it is amazing to see how much anticipation there is for Goldust's return in comparison to Edge for the level of star Edge is supposedly at even when you fact in the gulf in storyline support. No surprise. Goldust is wrestling, Edge isn't. Why would anyone be excited to hear an Edge promo?
hammerva Posted September 10, 2013 Report Posted September 10, 2013 We are really going to start using terms like "never drew a dime" on TV now? It is like this Triple H promo was written by people on this board
Ricky Jackson Posted September 10, 2013 Report Posted September 10, 2013 I was thinking the same thing.
Dylan Waco Posted September 10, 2013 Report Posted September 10, 2013 I know point it out on this forum is like shooting ducks in a barrel. But it is amazing to see how much anticipation there is for Goldust's return in comparison to Edge for the level of star Edge is supposedly at even when you fact in the gulf in storyline support. This lack of respect for a future WON HoFer is disconcerting
tim Posted September 10, 2013 Report Posted September 10, 2013 man trips killed it in that backstage with edge
Stiva Posted September 10, 2013 Report Posted September 10, 2013 Just seeing Dustin back for this brief night is making me want a 6-12 month run where he teams with Santino and wrestles Cesaro every week on Main Event.
ButchReedMark Posted September 10, 2013 Report Posted September 10, 2013 Dustin Rhodes seems to age like a fine wine, doesn't he? He looked brilliant tonight.
KrisZ Posted September 10, 2013 Report Posted September 10, 2013 Orton is now definitely winning on Sunday
Slasher Posted September 10, 2013 Report Posted September 10, 2013 Orton is now definitely winning on Sunday Well yeah. They couldn't have Orton lose the belt he won at Summerslam one month later at a September PPV... unless it was to Triple H
Johnny Sorrow Posted September 10, 2013 Report Posted September 10, 2013 I like that Heyman's "doctor" is a jacked up Vince Russo. And the "THIS IS AWKWARD" chant was fantastic.
sek69 Posted September 10, 2013 Report Posted September 10, 2013 Cesaro doing the giant swing until the crowd stopped doing their stupid chant and realizing something awesome was going on was magnificent.
sek69 Posted September 10, 2013 Report Posted September 10, 2013 Also it finally hit me tonight, ever since Miz grew out his fauxhawk he looks like a buffed up Steve Buschemi.
Marty Posted September 10, 2013 Report Posted September 10, 2013 Cesaro doing the giant swing until the crowd stopped doing their stupid chant and realizing something awesome was going on was magnificent. Even better than ONS in '05 when Eddy did a Larry Zbyszko stall to cut the Lita chants. Also, with RAW being in Canada, I was amused at Stephanie's Rod Black impersonation. I doubt that was the intention...but I enjoyed it.
