PROJECT 161/Abused Society, Part Deux

[lildude8218]

is this turning into the new nWo without anyone even attached to it yet?

[Crazy Larry]

Its Whipwreck, my dream told me so!

[skiller]

Those shirts are pretty cool.

[Tea & Crumpets]

Now you see, it'd be great if you went around wearing them, cause nobody would know what it'd mean and you could make weird cryptic references if anybody asked you. I want one of them shirts now.

[Johnny]

I need that shirt. Its the greatest wrestling shirt this side of Alex Shelley's Freeze Sucker shirts.

Building…

An army…

A revolution…

Our way in…

Your way out…

The ocean is vast, and though it is filled with predators, we minnows outnumber the sharks a billion to one. It is to my dismay that no one has taken initiative sooner. Does no one see? Is the simplicity of our design not cracking the watershed? We must converge to take on the Upper Hand. We must seize what precious moments remain and raze the establishment, before the walls start caving in.
And so it is; that what must be done is left up to us—the incomplete. I understand what fear is. You must conquer yourself before you can conquer the world. And with a thousand pound weight on your shoulders, the fight is lost sight of; it takes a back seat to survival. You must shed that burden pound by pound, sin by sin, and remember that the only forgiveness you need is from yourself. God doesn’t care about you. Ring of Honor doesn’t care about you. Each institution molds your brain like putty, giving you “freedom” to be and to think as you wish. But the truth is not that. Listen close.
The truth is that every decision you make has already been made for you by enterprises like Ring of Honor. They dictate to you, and you turn a blind eye. Well, an era of transformation is upon you, my friend. Project 161 is here to open your eyes, clarify your vision, and reignite your intellect. We’re here to save you: One life at a time.

They've Got The Guns.

But We've Got The Numbers.

Man, I had two shots...TWO SHOTS...to get one of those shirts.

Curse my metallic body...

[Mr. Mediocre]

So...am I the only one here who actually has a 161 shirt?

[Tea & Crumpets]

Now that blog just made me think of Paul Heyman. 'the only forgiveness you need is from yourself', perhaps referencing him working as part of the ECW brand that was a 'sellout' to the original ECW. 'freedom to be and think as you wish / every decision you make has already been made for you by enterprises', a reference to him being shut away from all decisions regarding booking, no longer having that freedom to think. 'reignite your intellect', perhaps meaning he will be brought in and regain creative control?
I know it's very very wishful thinking, but there's certainly truth to the argument. I don't think it'll be Paul, but if it was it'd be great.

[HMARK Center]

I'm absolutely lost now. The clues have all lead to dead ends. Time to simply see the pieces fall where they may.

[The Scuba Guy]

Those shirts do kick ass, but are they really that dark?

I mean, those nooses were dark. Somehow, that building was dark. But t-shirts?

And what about those kids from a while back? Wasn't that dark either

I honestly thought seeing a picture of two children made it more creepy. What purpose could a pic like that have?

Again, I'm sure it's a message, kind of like the picture of Gabe and his girlfriend.

And I know we already knew this, but the guy I met at Manhattan Mayhem II can officially confirm that the video on Youtube is, in fact, the video from the DVDs that were handed out.

After reading the blog posts again, I am 100% convinced that Adam Pearce and the gang are not 161. If anything, Adam Pearce might be first on the group's list to take down. It is clear to me that 161 is against the "know-it-all," the person who thinks that he understands life but in actuality, doesn't understand anything. They also claim that they have the stealthiness of Solid Snake. After all, they have been saying for a while that we won't know who they are until it's "too late." Not only is Pearce a "know-it-all," he and his group has been about as obvious as a nuclear bomb attack.

I am also convinced (still) that 161 will have at least one high profile member. 161 is more than just a stable at this point. Gabe, thanks to the Internet and some cryptic writing, has turned them into the Goth NWO. Somehow, 161 has to "top" the surprise debut of Ruckus. It would really disappointing if 161, the group that will supposedly put all other groups to shame, features Tyler Black as their mastermind.

Yeah, no offense to Tyler Black as a performer, but if he's anything other than "Henchman #2" in the grand scheme of Project 161, I'll be terribly dissapointed.

Well, Mike Awesome was the first WCW wrestler to appear on WWE TV, and he was hardly considered the "mastermind" of the invasion.

...That's a terrible analogy.

No, you actually have a great point there, and it's an angle of the....angle(dammit!) that I didn't look at. Wouldn't it build the drama up more if whoever the mastermind is sent in the henchmen first, instead of just showing up in one great big bomb drop? Instead of all of Project 161 at once, you get a Tyler Black one show, and then you kind of slowly introduce the group, leading up to the shocking reveal of the mastermind.
