The had to kill the gimmick, did you expect anything less?

He was getting over. Vince can't let anyone get over! That's bad for business. Babyfaces should either get no reaction from the crowd at all or 70% boos, right? Right?

Funkasaurus was nice, but I will never see him as a serious champ.

I could see him being a decent midcard champion, hell the one they have currently looks like a chimp and talks with a lisp and he won it from a Guido who's catchphrase was take care spike your hair, even though his was thinning worse then @[Goldberg] post NFL.

True, but I would rather see Gabriel, R-Truth, Kofi or Santino as the midcard champ.

He was just like Rikishi. WWE needs a mid-card entertainment act that's not all about climbing the ladder to become champion.

Clay and Rikishi are sooo different!
I don't see Clay doing this: [video=youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=xHR36wY0e6c[/video]

Obviously they are different, the gimmicks are similar though. And they were both entertaining as hell and happy in the mid-card (until the Rikishi heel turn later on in his career). They don't have anyone like that currently, except maybe Ryder.

Stupid gimmicks never stopped HHH from becoming the Shovel did it?

Sure, Trips had a hiccup but we all know breaking kayfabe and hugging your opponent isn't a fire-able offense.

HHH probably thinks accents suck since he was the one who exposed Kofi Kingston on live TV for a fake accent

He clearly hates foreigners which is why Drew Mac has sugar in his tank, right now.


I wouldn't be surprised if HHH hates acronyms and aristocrats and all workers who'd use those gimmicks.... coach em up Hunter

Probably the reason why he dropped his British accent..

Ok and the Godfather was a fail for bringing his 'Ho's' to the ring

The 'ho' train never got over..... and one of the 'ho's' namely, Victoria, didn't go on to become a Women's Champion

Dah well, they could always bring Clay back as a guy who eats worms.


Awesome.... turn Clay from a Godfather reboot into a worm-eater who's old enough to be my Grandfather... this is too good
