A Screen Up Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 If they are going to do a show based around one style then surely it would be better to do a tag team show than cruiserweight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators PowerButchi Posted February 3, 2012 Moderators Share Posted February 3, 2012 I thought we'd all already decided they should just do a mini show? Â I thoroughly concur. WWE's own version of Kemonito is a must. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reznor Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 It would be shite probably. Â The whole attraction of the cruiserweight division, similar to hardcore, minis, and even tag nowadays, is that it's something different; a little diversion or bit of light relief to bring variety to shows and give the fans something a little bit different. Fill a whole show with all that and the novelty won't be long in wearing off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted February 3, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted February 3, 2012 WWE have a over midget who draws fans in. No reason not to build this show around Hornswoggle, and bring in minis from around the world to challenge him for his title of the biggest small star in the business. Porky vs Hornswoggle could be the Hulk vs. Andre of the Junior Division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Rob Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 I thought we'd all already decided they should just do a mini show? Â I thoroughly concur. WWE's own version of Kemonito is a must. This is one of my favourite pieces of merch that I own! Â Anyone remember that old WWF home video, "Biggest, Smallest, Strangest, Strongest"? I want to a weekly show like that - have midget matches, big man matches, crazy mixed tags, Attitude era-style hardcore matches (the kind they used to have over the Hardcore Title, throwaway fun), comedy, divas and high-flyers too. It can have some guys specific to this show/roster, but also borrow guys from Raw and Smackdown, and bring in some old-timers every now and then too.

Moderators PowerButchi Posted February 3, 2012 Moderators Share Posted February 3, 2012 That's a really cool idea, looking at it. I'd have it live in it's own canon away from mainstream WWE as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vamp Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 That figure might just be the coolest piece of wrestling merch ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just needs everything to be emphasised and actually thought about - if you started slipping in Alex Riley vs JTG, then yeah, it's just the same old stuff. But if a little effort is put into planning it out, bringing in the right kind of people for the style of show and you could present something completely different. It would be all in the details, like you said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Halitosis Romantic Posted February 3, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted February 3, 2012 Absolutely - Alex Riley vs. JTG might be alright, as hardcore match where the loser has his gimmick changed to incorporate roller skates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Riley and JTG could hit each other over the head with stop signs as well as anyone from 2000 could, but they'd never be allowed to anyway because WWE doesn't want a repeat of Test and Crash Holly . Â What you've described isn't different enough from a standard wrestling show to warrant another roster for it. They could fly in a midget to face Hornswoggle once a week anyway, they're never going to do substantial hardcore matches, and they've already got divas, comedy, high-flyers and big men matches as it is now. "Actually thought about" just implies more creative effort put in, and if they're going to put more creative effort into writing a wrestling show, they're more likely to do it for the proper shows than network filler. At least one would hope so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Pitcos Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 I'd love it if they just did that and gave it an hour every week, with a proper documentary build-up for every fight, and a tale of the tape and the like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
