Paid Members wandshogun09 Posted October 2, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted October 2, 2011 I prefer James Storm to be honest, I think he's the more likable of the Beer Money duo. He's certainly more charismatic, although Roode has a much better look if that's what you go for.I've not seen a lot of TNA recently but whenever I have I've found Beer Money to be a highlight. But I always thought Roode was the more charismatic. Storm never really struck me as overly charismatic whenever I saw him. Like I say I don't watch regularly so might be way off the mark but every time I tune in it's Roode carrying all the promos while Storm stands there drinking and then throws in his catchphrase at the end.Also, there wasnt footage of Guerrero fucking the fans on PPV with that horrid unforgivable disrespect he showed Sting a few months back. Why should the fans give a fuck about Hardy? Why would TNA's audience care about Hardy now? They barely did before he embarrassed himself of PPV. In TNA, you can fuck up with the casual audience, no bother, because they hardly watch. But Hardy fucked TNA's core paying audience.What's this about? Anyone fill me in on what Hardy did?

Paid Members mim731 Posted October 2, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted October 2, 2011 And the Harry Potter photo is to remind you of what a plum you are. Not to entertain anyone. Apart from myself, who rocked back in my chair and had a good chuckle over it, whilst smoking a pipe.Do you actually have a pipe? I sort of hope so, but only if it's complimented by a sherlock holmes style hat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members garynysmon Posted October 2, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted October 2, 2011 I hope they don't turn Beer Money against each other just for an obvious feud. It's obvious they're going their seperate ways, but keep the option there for them to team with each other again when the situation arises.I fucking love Beer Money.

thefallenangel Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Beer Money will keep going for the Merch i reckon, plus a good nostalgia pop of Beer Money teaming plus with Beer Money gives you a good base for a top face/heel faction in TNA.

Plus Beer Money are indeed fucking awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus Beer Money are indeed fucking awesome.Seem to recall that being the general consensus when AMW split. Then Chris Harris was boring, got fat, and changed his name to Braden for a fortnight. Meanwhile James Storm was generally awesome.Not that I can remotely see the same thing happening with Beer Money, as TNA are obviously well behind Roode at the minute. But writing off Storm if they do the old split-and-feud would be a mistake. He's got the knack of standing out and making whatever he's given to work with count. I too would much rather see them both elevated to higher level players while still working as a team at least occasionally, though. There are too few lengthy alliances in wrestling these days.

Paid Members Ronnie Posted October 3, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted October 3, 2011 What's this about? Anyone fill me in on what Hardy did?He and Sting were in the main event of the Victory Road PPV. Hardy showed up in reasonable form but at some point between the show starting and his match had felt the need to indulge himself in a treat or two. By the time his match started he was high as a kite, Bischoff having to come out to change plans in the middle of the ring and telling Sting to get the match over with quickly. A few seconds into the "match" Sting pulled Hardy by his hair into a Scorpion Death Drop and cinched in the pin as Hardy legitimately tried to kick out. As the show went off the air the fans chanted "This is bullshit!" prompting Sting to respond "I agree. I agree!" Hardy was suspended immediately.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2V6ulxTRSDc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hitman89762000 Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Really enjoyed the video they played of roode with his family etc might have been better for them to have used it to be the last thing on the last impact before bound for glory to really get people wanting roode to win.

bighead55 Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Am i the only one that prefers James Storm ? Hes a much better all rounder, great look, great mic skills, knows how to work the crowd, a cool catchphrase and great in the ring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted October 3, 2011 Author Paid Members Share Posted October 3, 2011 Storm's great, but he's like Road Dogg was. Road Dogg was a great hand, had a class gimmick and he looked decent and was super over, but it probably wouldn't fit a main event level program. Storm's couldn't do this babyface push as well as Roode without coming across as a bit hokey. I couldn't imagine us seeing what Storm's characters house and children look like. Not knocking Storm, cause he's excellent, I just think there would be a danger of him coming across as outdated with his cowboy gimmick and strong southern accent and his "suck my beer bottle" quotes. I might be wrong there, because I love James Storm personally, but I can totally see why Roode is their golden boy over Storm.Road Dogg example might be a bit extreme, but I hope you know what I mean by it.

You can be the best guy in the world but you're fucked without exposure. I always prefered D-Von to Ray but they've made him look like shit since Team 3D split.

Doog Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 One thing they need to sort out though us roode changing his music and attire, coming our with dollar signs on his trunks and being associated with having loads of money doesn't go with the blue collar gimmick he's got going on at the minute. Hopefully he has both them things changed at bound for glory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 I was wondering about that - Ian pointed out the lack of his own t-shirt, and you're right that the "money" thing doesn't fit.I can only assume that they'll launch a whole new range of Roode attire at BFG to coincide with his first title win.
