Admittedly that has blown my mind.

Imagine if Sid had actually been a great wrestler and had wanted to wrestle full time.
He'd have been the biggest star in the world. I still think "Jesus, look at that big bastard" when I watch old Sid intros. |

Still love seeing old clips of Mongo as a commentator on Nitro with that little fucking dog.

Amazing, Gillberg was doing Goldberg present day matches (multiple spears from the first moment of the match) back in 1999! |

An MVP-led heel stable of Bobby Lashley, Apollo Crews, Cedric Alexander, Ricochet & Bianca Belair is something I want to see... Crews slowly turns heel as MVP helps him retain his title, he backs Ricky & Cedric to turn on his current charges of Thorne & Vink, then leads them to eventually take the titles away from The Profits after Belair turns on them.
And if you didn't want Belair to turn on her legit husband, trade Naomi to Raw and have her turn heel instead.... |

I feel opposite. I mean, yes, give MVP a group, but we don't need to repeatedly and perpetually make teams and stables based solely around ethnicity. It's lazy at minimum.

He's fucked. Vince and Trump are buds but Vince cares about the company more than anything else, being a distraction is acceptable to him if you bring money into the company but a random low card dude like him is probably gonna get the boot to save PR. Wouldn't be the first time, part of the "strikes" against Big Cass was that he was a vocal Trump supporter in a locker room that is very liberal. Although with things as heated as they are. you could just as easily have the right wing media killing the company for letting him go too. |

Pretty sure WWE is taking down the media or something. Not working here.

Chrome has had issues with embedded Twitter videos for me for months. If I click on the tweet and actually go to Twitter it plays fine.... and then, the rest seem to play fine in embedded form after.

Ah, thanks, I can see them now. Good lord, Mongo might be one of my actual guilty pleasures in wrestling. Such an accidental gem. He'd be lauded as the greatest if he was in modern wrestling, just because he's such a wobbly wreck.

I've gone through phases where I thought a stable that addressed race issues could be interesting. But it'd just be too polarizing with so many racists in the US. Like, Kofi Kingston takes a knee on a SmackDown and half you yanks will boo the fuck out of him forever and a day.
It's not the right sort of heat to get. Even if you try to make them babyfaces, or heels that are only booed because they are assholes, and maybe have a few token white guys in there, haha. It's also got that flavor of exploitation that WWE takes a MASSIVE beating for when it comes to things like the Iraq situation in 1991, or Muhammad Hassan when the terrorist attacks happened. It's way too divisive an issue, and WWE are just not mature or nuanced enough (fuck I hate that word, but it actually fits here), to even think about attempting it. MVP managing Bobby Lashley is enough. |

And WWE are wankers. I'm not entirely sure they won't have Bobby Lashley win the WWE Title just to see what happens. Drew can always get it back in a few months. Stunt booking to stop the ratings decline. If they do it, they'll probably have a white babyface cost Drew in order to try and suggest to people it's not race related.
Seth Rollins would be likely. Or CM Punk if they can convince him. He's just back to cause chaos or something and wanted to pick a fight with the guy who was WWE Champion and beat Brock Lesnar. |

Vince is probably gonna dress Otis up in a Dashiki, call him Akeem Jr, put the strap on him and promote him as a African American World Champion.

Lazy perhaps, but they all need a mouthpiece and that's all MVP was brought back to do (other than to produce backstage).
