Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted June 15, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted June 15, 2011 The 'Little Jimmy and Little Jenny' stuff is perfect. Being the root of what sent R-Truth off his rocker, now detesting that he used to pander to them so much and it got him no where, really dwelling on that fact and targeting Cena (someone who panders to those same 'Little Jimmys' and enjoys great success with it) is all very logical. Having no music is a brilliant touch to the character. It's great when a little change makes a massive difference and just clicks. Truth is tearing into this role. Good on him, he's been patient and probably as frustrated as anyone at his previous position. Seconded. The Little Jimmy catchphrase is the highlight of Raw. "Don't boo me, you should be booing yourself" always makes me laugh as well. And he's a complete nutcase as well. Its easy to get lost in the humour until he goes mental and starts beating people up.

The King Of Swing Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6y9oH8O9WU Â That alone makes R-Truth the best thing on Raw........shit I can't believe I'm actually posting that R-Truth is the best thing on Raw.

Paid Members ShortOrderCook Posted June 15, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted June 15, 2011 It's also great that a name has been given to that sector of the audience that so many seem to detest. I think that's a grand idea there with potential to really take off personally. Â 'SHUT UP LITTLE JIMMY!' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TildeGuy~! Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 So is Sheamus' new finisher the Texas Cloverleaf then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Pitcos Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 I think at one point a few weeks back, before settling on Little Jimmy, R-Truth mentioned Little Ronnie. I liked that, it reminded me of both Heidenreich and Corbett. Â I got really annoyed watching the women's match on Raw because of how bad Kelly Kelly is. It's long been an irk of mine, but I hadn't paid it much heed for the last year or so, either because she'd improved or I just stopped being bothered. Anyway, after she was on Tough Enough the other week going "I've been here five years and I'm just now getting into a groove" she was absolutely terrible on Raw. She still can't even bounce off the fucking ropes, and her mounted punches just looked like total playfighting. It's pedantic to even criticise her, really, because she's got her good qualities and people like her so her act does work in spite of technique. But by jove, it bugs me when she's that bad. Worse than a trainee, like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked that, it reminded me of both Heidenreich and Corbett.  I'm sure he said Little Ronnie too and I instantly thought of this little fucker   Didn't he guest host Raw at some point or was a guest? R-Truth and his character from Role Models would be brilliant! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangerously420 Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Was just having a think here. With WWE Capitol Punishment being in Washington DC do you think there will be the possibility of a return of "The Animal" Batista? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you need Cena to go up against someone for the next few months, heel Batista. He could get his hometown pop on his return, via interference or promo or whatever and then turn heel. Â Batista was doing his best stuff character wise when he left and he's that star that WWE have been missing for a while now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other thing that is grand is his "I'm a good R-Truth" followed by him kicking the shit out of somebody. R-Truth is quality, he's had so many segments that could have fallen on their arse but WWE appear to have something that clicks with what they write - just a shame they'll not go all out for it. I think the mix of comedy and menace is excellent. It's like Macho Madness meets Ric Flair.   Was just having a think here. With WWE Capitol Punishment being in Washington DC do you think there will be the possibility of a return of "The Animal" Batista? He has an interview with Wrestling Observer Radio coming up, maybe he'll let something slip then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The King of Old School Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 I don't get how anyone can complain about R Truth at the moment. They're doing a brilliant job with him, he's completely off his rocker, and he's fucking hilarious sometimes.  Agreed, i very rarely laugh at anything in the WWE as there comedy is usually woeful, but every segment R-Truth has been in so far since turning heel has made me laugh at least once.  Loved his capital punishment promo the other week, going on about getting thrown out of a boat  But the highlight of R-Truth so far for me was this week, after taking out John Morrison and walking off, he returns to shout "Take that little jimmy!" to a great crowd reaction.  Brillient.

RepoMan Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 I loved the Little Jimmy chants from the crowd. They were good all night actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.PeterVenkman Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Don't really get why it was called All-Star night, was expecting something similar to the Old School Raw, suppose it was just to plug the game  Fast forwarded through most of it, only really Piper's Pit I was interested in, got Riley over pretty well, R-Truth was quality at the end too  Agree with what a few people have said about the Diva's. most of them could be sacked tomorrow and I wouldn't notice, The Bellas do get fitter every week though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Pitcos Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 There wasn't that much they could've done with the All-Star concepts, maybe had an in-ring Austin vs Punk confrontation. The concept of the game is Old vs New. The game's fantasy warfare mode presents the following matches:  Cena vs Hogan Punk vs Austin Taker vs Michaels HHH vs Rock Big Show vs Andre Edge vs Bret Orton vs Jake Sheamus vs Warrior Morrison vs Savage Mysterio vs Guerrero Kane vs Snuka Kofi vs Steamboat McIntyre vs Piper Swagger vs Slaughter  None of those were really possible, bar the last couple.There are very few Legends at all in the game who are on good terms with WWE, available and healthy enough to have done much on Raw. It would've been more accurate to have just called it "Stone Cold Raw" really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Carbomb Posted June 15, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted June 15, 2011 Taker vs. Michaels and HHH vs. Rock's a bit of a cop-out if that's the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Pitcos Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Including those as dream matches in the game was a big cop-out. But they're no more likely to have happened on Raw this week than Miz vs Mr Perfect anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
