Loss Posted January 22, 2006 Report Posted January 22, 2006 This is a riot. Disco Machine & Joey Ryan & Topgun Talwar vs. Scorpio Sky & Zokre & Phoenix Star Puma vs. Tommy Williams Human Tornado vs. Delirious vs. Luke According to SCU, the dark matches are in place so that MTV and Big Vision Entertainment can determine who to contract should the show get picked up as a full series. As reported, wrestling on the main card will be Vampiro, Justin Credible, Sean Waltman, New Jack, Jack Evans, Matt Sydal and Teddy Hart. Vampiro, Sean Waltman, New Jack and Teddy Hart in the same locker room? That's crazy! All they need is Juventud.
Strummer Posted January 22, 2006 Report Posted January 22, 2006 apparently MTV has come out and said that the storylines will be "real". I don't know if they are going to promote them as "real" or that they are actually going to try to create drama ala Real World, etc. This is going to be a trainwreck
Coffey Posted January 22, 2006 Report Posted January 22, 2006 Wow. Topgun Talwar is very unimpressive to me. Delirious is OK but is this going to be a conflict of interest because he sometimes works ROH? The Human Tornado is comedy. I can't believe he hasn't been sucked up by another promotion already. Justin Credible can't use that name, right? I haven't seen Vampiro in awhile, so that'll be interesting. Teddy Hart will be blackballed from here in a week or two as well. He's a fucking nutcase. Anyone want to bet on whom will miss the first date? Hart for being asked to not show up or New Jack because he'll be in jail?
Guest Mike Campbell Posted January 22, 2006 Report Posted January 22, 2006 Why would Delirious be a problem? Jack Evans and Matt Sydal also work for ROH. Puma did a few shots with them, but hasn't been around in ages.
Coffey Posted January 22, 2006 Report Posted January 22, 2006 Well, all of them really. I was just curious if this would make it so they couldn't work ROH.
Loss Posted January 22, 2006 Author Report Posted January 22, 2006 They should go all out with the sleazeball thing. They already have a start there. Bring in Juventud Guerrera, Lex Luger, Scott Hall and Jake Roberts, and get Roland Alexander, David McLane, Rob Feinstein and Rob Black to co-promote it. Make Tammy Sytch and Missy Hyatt the females and have Tom Zenk and Maxx Payne doing commentary.
Loss Posted January 22, 2006 Author Report Posted January 22, 2006 Oh, and then on top of that, bring in Rick and Scott Steiner. I'd watch, out of morbid curiosity.
Guest savagerulz Posted January 22, 2006 Report Posted January 22, 2006 Call me a cynic, but this show will not get picked up as a full series. Have me train some Real World/Road Rules/True Life alums for six months, then you'd have something.
JHawk Posted January 22, 2006 Report Posted January 22, 2006 And yet I'm sending my resume for the broadcasting job. I just want a record of my being in attendance when Teddy Hart ruins another opportunity. Besides, I have no pride.
Guest SweetMama Scaat Posted January 23, 2006 Report Posted January 23, 2006 Since when are you a broadcaster? I dont think the MTV show will be yknow, good. But people will watch it. At least the intial airing.
Marty Posted January 23, 2006 Report Posted January 23, 2006 Loss, you're off your game. You forgot Buff Bagwell.
JHawk Posted January 23, 2006 Report Posted January 23, 2006 Since when are you a broadcaster? I dont think the MTV show will be yknow, good. But people will watch it. At least the intial airing. Since I heard they actually wanted somebody with wrestling knowledge. Actually, the indy promotion I occasionally referee for is considering making me a broadcaster for their tapes and DVDs, but they run so infrequently that I doubt it'll ever happen.
Guest Dangerous A Posted January 23, 2006 Report Posted January 23, 2006 I briefly considered throwing my resume' to this as well, but want more details before trying to go full bore with something like this. So far, doesn't sound too promising, but then again, a lot of this info is speculation.
Loss Posted January 23, 2006 Author Report Posted January 23, 2006 They should also bring in Ricky Morton, Marty Jannetty and Warrior Warrior. Any other scummy or semi-scummy free agents I'm missing?
Guest Dangerous A Posted January 23, 2006 Report Posted January 23, 2006 Unfortunately Vince McMahon and John Laurinitis are still affiliated with WWE.
Loss Posted January 23, 2006 Author Report Posted January 23, 2006 Oh, and they could have Bruce Hart as a plant at ringside constantly trying to get on TV and Diana Hart-Smith as the Crying Woman anytime a heel attacks a babyface.
Guest Dangerous A Posted January 23, 2006 Report Posted January 23, 2006 Back to the unfortunate side, Fritz Von Erich is dead. Perhaps MTV will want to appeal to a larger racial demographic and bring in scum like Atsushi Onita and Invader I Jose Gonzales.
kjh Posted January 23, 2006 Report Posted January 23, 2006 This promotion needs a booking committee consisting of Jim Cornette, Vince Russo and Eric Bischoff and they need more nutty talent like Randy Savage and Kevin Nash.
Guest Famous Mortimer Posted January 24, 2006 Report Posted January 24, 2006 If they booked it based on this thread, it would instantly become the best wrestling show of all time. Like that really weird PPV "Legends of Wrestling" (or whatever it was called) from a few years back that had loads of retired guys trying to look like they were wrestling.
Guest SweetMama Scaat Posted January 24, 2006 Report Posted January 24, 2006 Isnt Ricky Morton in jail...still?
kjh Posted February 9, 2006 Report Posted February 9, 2006 Courtesy of Dave Meltzer: The MTV TV taping is tomorrow. Kris Kloss will be doing the announcing. He used to do the XPW TV show. I'm of the impression that all fans who attend will have to sign a non-disclosure sheet. Taping is 5 to 11 p.m. They are looking for fans to be between 18-25 years old and to wear Warped Tour attire and show up in "Downtown Los Angeles" at 4:30 p.m. Fans will get paid $7 per hour for four to six hours of taping. To get into the taping send to [email protected] with a contact number as well as a photo if possible. I guess no ugly fans allowed or something. How fucked up is that? Even WCW didn't pay fans to attend their shows.
Guest Dangerous A Posted February 9, 2006 Report Posted February 9, 2006 I'm not going to lie, I'd be a fan for this shit for $7 an hour.
Boondocks Kernoodle Posted February 9, 2006 Report Posted February 9, 2006 Didn't the AWF used to pay fans to go to their shows?
Coffey Posted February 9, 2006 Report Posted February 9, 2006 Kris fuckin' Kloss? My God, can this "promotion" get any worse? This is so bad that it's sad and it's not even aired yet. Paying the fans to show up? The roster? Oh my goodness...
