It basically talks about how Austin has turned the WWE upside down and Vince dreams of a world without him and there's a CPU vocieover talking about compliance and hopw it's good for you, and defiance will not be tolerated. It has a lot of facist imagery, and at the end, says "Welcome to Mr.McMahon's Utopia". it's pretty great. Here it is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gHDNapDVIZU

It's amazing how much support here Miz had when that video was produced and now you'd be hard pressed to find anyone here that would claim to still be a fan. His rise and fall was hilariously fast. I tried to stay positive about him but the face turn has just been unbearable. That and when Riley stopped being his stooge that pretty much took all the fun out of his character. Those two trolling other wrestlers was the only reason Miz's personality worked.

His rise and fall was hilariously fast. Just like that hypothetical that Bryan Alvarez says about something being on the other side of the room, and you have to choose to go through X, X or The Miz to get it. I just don't buy him as a person who could win a professional fight. But, that video package made me think it for a minute or so, so good job production guys.

It sounds like on today's WO that Alvarez's recent TNA research was to write a chapter for the updated Death of WCW. TNA is so pathetic, it can't even get its own book.

dsriggs posted:For me, his fall happened when he came out on the ramp. He was a foot shorter than Riley, wore an overcoat that looked 3 sizes too big for him, & stomped around like a 12-year-old "tough guy". All I could think of was: "Man, they were right. He shouldn't be here." This post for some reason made me remember the stupid fuckin' ostrich dance he used to do before his finisher and now I can't stop laughing.

I think Miz was so popular here for a time because we were pretty desperate for WWE to push anyone new. This was before they had NXT filled with potential talent, things were looking kinda bleak. Miz was coming off of a funny tag team with Morrison, we were willing to give him a shot.

I enjoy that as much as the next guy, but I think it's perfectly fitting that TNA--who have been hell-bent on becoming WCW 2.0, right down to trying to spend their way into the #2 spot--are merely just an afterword to the overall failure of WCW, rather than having their failures documented in their own right.

No No, I know the difference, but somebody bringing up Gedo made me wanna hear him do an interview. I know he's a big fan of U.S. style, especially brawlers and Dusty Rhodes in particular.
