Johnny Ace rips into Tough Enough winner

[Famous Rocking Chimes]

- After the Tough Enough finale part of RAW a few weeks back, WWE's John Laurinaitis ripped into Andy Leavine for about five minutes about how Leavine shit on everything Vince McMahon and Steve Austin have done for the business, and about how he was a piece of crap who will never amount to anything in the business. Laurinaitis was mad because they felt Andy should have stayed down longer after the slap from Vince and the Stunner from Austin.

Source? Sounds like an awesome story though.

See, that never would have happened if they picked Luke.

Actually as I was watching I thought that he should have sold the Stunner longer as well. That said, IF this is true Johnny could have handled his criticisms better.

Was just about to post this. Sounded quite plausible for whatever reason.

I remember being surprised when I saw that segment at how quickly he recovered from that stunner.

DAMMIT THAT VINCE SLAP PUT ASSES IN SEATS!

He sold the slap like he'd been shot. If anything I thought he'd get chewed out for overselling it.

That's why I thought. If I was slapped like that, I may lose my balance slightly but that's it.

[Taupy]

He should definitely had sold that Stunner longer. It's supposed to be one of the most devastating move of all time.

That was such a bad idea to have him slapped and stunned in the first place. It really made the WWE look stupid for spending all those weeks training someone, then you announce the winner and make him look like a bitch.

Contribution to the business? If he had beat the dogsnot out of Ace right there. He would've made the greatest contribution

[foreveryoung]

And what the f*** type of contribution has Johnny Ace ever made to the business exactly? Other then being the Flag Bearer for the Sheepherders and totally help destroy WWE"s developmental territory . What a company line towing goofball.


Oh I forgot wasn't he on that HOF tag team with Shane Douglas the Dynamic Dudes? What a contribution

[joebob27]

So, when Cole didn't sell it at all..... or is that okay because it was to set up an implausible, business-exposing spot? lol

This sounds fake, but wtf was he supposed to do? Just lay there dead at ringside all through the R-Truth segment?

[FUNK_US/BRODUS]

Johnny Ace is a bitch.

[Djm Doesn't Find You Funny]

Wouldn't he have done this if Luke won, or he sold the slap differently?

This, to me, sounds like another one of those WWE "break him down to teach him respect and to learn his place" things.
