Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted September 22, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted September 22, 2012 (edited) They were going to hire him in 1997, but Bruce Prichard didn't like his attitude. Especially when they found out WCW released him because he wouldnt do a job for Jackie. Also, he's always had the reputation of a twat who sucks up to those in power (Russo, Nash etc) and a lot of the WCW staff WWF hired like Arn Anderson and Fit Finlay probably hated him as well.

Vamp Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 Shame. I like Disco Inferno, I realise I'm probably in the minority though. Although I can understand why he wouldn't be worth the bother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members bAzTNM#1 Posted September 23, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted September 23, 2012 (edited) (Disco Inferno to WWF) They were going to hire him in 1997.. He was the first choice to be "Rockabilly" IIRC. Edited September 23, 2012 by bAzTNM#1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members air_raid Posted September 23, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted September 23, 2012 There was a UK show called Indypendence Day. That may have been the worst show name ever. Even more so considering it was the name for a 2-day event... Â (pendantry alert) They realized that quite a bit before the actual shows, and renamed the first show "Eve of Indypendence" with the second show being the "day" of Indypendence Day. Both nights were quite enjoyable I thought, although I thought Spud & The Models vs Moralez & Hubba Bubba Lucha was better than any of the matches involving the (cough) "big names." Â They were going to hire him in 1997, but Bruce Prichard didn't like his attitude. Especially when they found out WCW released him because he wouldnt do a job for Jackie. Â And yet bizarrely when he came back and they made him do that job to Jackie anyway, they then proceeded to reward him with a brief TV title run. Typical WCW. "Hah, after we job him to a woman, we'll saddle him with only the third best heavyweight singles title. That'll put him in his place." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slapnut Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 (edited) Â I can't remember this match for the life of me. Was there a storyline or a feud that I've forgotten? Edited September 25, 2012 by Slapnut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 More importantly, whatever happened to Morrison? Is he appearing at a bingo hall near you at the moment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Up Chuck Posted September 25, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted September 25, 2012 All I can find is that the match was in December 2009, so it's a fair bet that it was to build up something at TLC. And Morrison's doing indies here and there, I think someone over here's got him booked for later in the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Pitcos Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 That match was part of a triple jeopardy thing, where HHH had to wrestle three gimmick matches in a night. The others were a handicap against Miz and Chavo, and a last man standing against Big Show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forrest Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 On the Sky Sports EPG, Smackdown is listed under two different names "Smackdown" and "Late Night Smackdown". Is there any difference between them at all? Is Late Night the US broadcast and the normal Smackdown an edited pre-watershed version to take out weapon shots and things?

Paid Members bAzTNM#1 Posted September 30, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted September 30, 2012 Hi there! Â I remember watching a TNA clip a few months ago of Zema Ion (Is that it? Haven't watched TNA in years) accidently crippling somebody doing a flying move to the outside and landing on a guy. How is that guy now? Has he managed to regain feeling yet? Thanks! Â P.S. Sorry. Couldn't remember the injured guy's name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
