I was somewhat surprised to see a Daffney tweet show up on my timeline. I almost never see her tweet for some reason, and forgot I was even following her. But more surprised when I saw this.quote:I loves my Daffney. She's sooo sweet and she gives me treats! ^,..,^ Prr... eh? https://twitter.com/SchmeezTheCat  Daffney has given her cat a Twitter account.

Daffney isn't a gimmick, this shouldn't surprise you.

Kurt Angle posted:"@steveaustinBSR @ShawnMichaels But Could Either of U take Me as a Shoot? Be Honest! I Respect You Both!" You would think after the Daniel Puder incident, Kurt Angle wouldn't be all that eager to challenge anyone to a shoot.

Kurt Angle types like my ex boss. His emails were great, because he took capitalization, punctuation, spelling, and generally having a point as just a suggestion.

We just need him to use "insure" instead of "ensure" or "effect" instead of "affect", and it'd be dead-on like my last boss as well.

Puder is an rear end in a top hat who took advantage of a work on live television. In a fight they were both expecting, I think Angle would do better for himself. That said, he's insane and I'm really afraid that he'll either die in the ring or kill himself in the next year or two.

Maybe, but Puder has five inches and probably 30 lbs on Angle, plus he's 13 years younger and is in possession of a functional neck.

From what Dave said on the Victory Road recap, he's afraid Kurt may legit injure himself at Lockdown rather than admit the whole Olympic thing was never gonna happen.

The Tough Enough guys were put through exhausting trials to soften them up for angle and then were put in with Angle with the idea that Angle would humble them. It wasn't supposed to be a work, it was supposed to be real, which is why they worked the guys to the point of exhaustion before hand. Puder just had the ability to fight back.

Tried to fill them up on milk and pastas before hand if I remember his interview in Powerslam correctly. Basically worked them to exhaustion on a full stomach to make them throw up and then threw them into the ring to get torn apart by Kurt Angle, who whatever you think about him, is a high calibre wrestler. Puder was the only one that figured out what they were trying to do and embarrassed them all for it. Then he got jobbed out, placed into the Royal Rumble to get stiffed by Chris Benoit, Hardcore Holly and Eddie Gurrerro and was shortly fired there after. He really was in a damned if you do, damned if you don't position.

Basically worked them to exhaustion on a full stomach to make them throw up and then threw them into the ring to get torn apart by Kurt Angle, who whatever you think about him, is a high calibre wrestler. The whole concept of the Smackdown Tough Enough, at least from how I interpreted it, was to give these guys a "crash course dues pay" instead of a "crash course wrestling training". Which is loving stupid, flawed and a huge mistake from the get go. Of course, Puder tried to get around paying dues by shooting back. Hence the burial. I have little against the Tough Enough concept. Where my problem is, is how it's all executed. If these kids are getting a crash course into becoming a wrestler, it should be getting trained more days than what a regular wrestler gets an opportunity to because they have other responsibilities. Three months of five days a week wrestling training that lasts 7-10 hours a day which includes training in the ring, training in the gym, training for their cardio and training by watching tapes while road agents/trainers/veterans explain to them what they are watching. By the end of Tough Enough, the final four should be trained wrestlers. The winner gets to go straight to WWE TV (where he should be half the time placed immediately with a veteran wrestler in a tag team situation) while the runners up go to FCW to continue their development. Whoever else showed promise should be helped in getting bookings on the independents and an opportunity to come back for a try out.

I sometimes wonder how things would have gone if the ref (Lil Naitch?) hadn't caught on and rang the bell because Puder's shoulder was on the mat. Otherwise, Angle would have eventually tapped, and the WWE would have been in a frenzy. Rags to Liches fucked around with this message at 07:48 on Mar 22, 2012 |

Perigryn posted:Angle's stubborn, he'd rather get his arm broken than tap. WWE had to protect him from himself (which TNA has tended to fail at doing, given all his outbursts). True. What would have happened? Would the WWE have tried to shove it under the rug and fire Puder immediately, or would they have pushed him as 'The Guy Who Snapped Angle's Arm' and let him ride that however far it took him?

Cardboard Box posted:Well, they definitely wouldn't have pushed him. Pretty much this. If Puder had forced Angle to tap or broken his arm, that would have instantly spelled the end of his time in WWE. There are very few individuals on the roster that WWE (like most every other wrestling promotion) would allow to get away with going into business for themselves like that, whether it was justified or a misunderstanding or whatever. Puder at that time drat sure wasn't one of 'em. If they'd have pushed him it would have set the precedent that the best way to get a push was to go out and embarrass (or legit injure) a top star, and I don't think any promotion wants to open up that can of worms.

Glitterbomber posted:I have never believed wrestling to be real more than that moment, when I was positive I was going to witness a man murder people on tv. It was so ridiculous that it was great. Angle takes a top rope Ganso Bomb...but almost immeadiately gets up and runs across the ring to give Jarrett a top rope Angle slam. Which is followed up a little later with a moonsault OFF THE CAGE, and then nearly breaks Jarrett's ankle with his pitbull style ankle lock. poo poo ending, but the match was so ridiculous it was awesome. Some of it is in this video around 1:45 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oeK-esaWOec On a funny note, it's crazy to see the motivation (or lack there of) TNA will give to its main eventers if you compare what RVD looks like in the Lockdown 2010 highlights (his first TNA PPV) and a year later at Lockdown 2011 with his five star beer gut.

I guess maybe I thought they'd have been willing to take a chance on him as a legitimate threat to ANYONE if that had happened, but that's just dumb wishful thinking on my part.
