Slapnut Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 There doesn't seem to be a lot Del Rio can do to keep me tuned in. I'll fast forward his segments 90% of the time. Â Also, whenever Vickie Guerrero speaks. It's such a shame because it means I have to fast-forward some Dolph time, but I'll always make sure I'm not skipping a promo of his.

Paid Members JohnnyChimpo Posted December 4, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted December 4, 2011 I remember him being the only WWF wrestler who was booed by the pro-WWF crowd at Invasion in 2001. Because he was still wrestling as a heel, and fighting one of the one two faces on the Invasion team? Surely that was the intended reaction? Or else they would have, you know, turned him face.

L_E_T_H_A_L Posted December 4, 2011 Author Share Posted December 4, 2011 He was mega-over until early 2000. For a good while after that, he had fuck-off heat. I remember him being the only WWF wrestler who was booed by the pro-WWF crowd at Invasion in 2001. Despite being a WWF guy he was still a heel at the time and Kidman was a popular babyface, despite being a WCW invader. Â Yes, but the heat he was attracting wasn't regular heel heat. It was more, "Go away, we're sick of the sight of you" heat. That's why it coined a term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members ColinBollocks Posted December 4, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted December 4, 2011 Mr. Kennedy, Rob Van Dam, Ted DiBiase and Crimson are all people who should not be on my TV. Kennedy/Rob Van Dam clearly can't be arsed anymore, Crimson isn't clicking on any level and the only interesting thing DiBiase has done in ages is dress up in a Santa hat and give the kids Mattel figures. Â I would normally dump Abyss in this list, but he's currently helping Bully Ray and Scott Steiner come up with some good material. So that's something, I guess.

BionicRedneck Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 'X-Pac heat' was originally 'Boss Man heat'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimufctna24 Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Ted Dibiase. He's just so dull. He irritates me even more when he does that stupid shaking all over angry thing to show that he's intense. It doesn't look intense. It looks hilarious. He's not a very good wrestler either. The best thing he's ever done was be in a tag team with Cody Rhodes. This Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lars85 Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 As soon as I saw this, I immediately thought Shannon Moore. Don't know what it is. Maybe it's that he's got the look of an angry lesbian. But I can't see his face without wanting to vomit blood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icon Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Abyss and Mr Anderson just wank in every way. Shit looks both poor on the mic and both are sloppy in the ring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoistVaj Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Dino Bravo. Â Â He was just awful in every way possible, could barely cut a coherent promo, plodded about the ring, had a strange look and posture about him and was genuinely awful. He also won a lot, usually by count out too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This  His dad too for me.  But the person who came to mind first was Chris Benoit closely followed by Dean Malenkio.  Theirs a bunch of guys from different eras as well.

King Pitcos Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 A lot of wrestlers who came along around 2003-2005. Simon Dean, the Bashams, Orlando Jordan, Chris Masters, Charlie Haas (although I loved a match he had on Heat with Jimmy Yang once), Kid Kash, Matt Morgan, loads of others. Oh, and fucking A-Train.

Daaaaaad! Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 It's a stupid term, which was coined by the sort of net fans that prefer cool heels, that they can cheer for. Fuck off. It's a bang-on term for the kind of things that people feel for the likes of Abyss and Ted Dibiase now. Don't even try and pretend it's because he was such a great heel. It's because he was boring as fuck and no cunt even wanted to see him. And don't give me 'but that's what a heel does' because if Lance fucking Storm had done it he'd have been just as bad.

If Lance Storm had done what? I'm not saying X-Pac was great at the time that phrase was coined, but he was nowhere near as bad as some people seem to think. Â In his day Waltman was a cracking, charismatic worker. A thousand times better than Abyss or Ted DiBiase ever have been or ever will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
