I'd say that most, if not all, of you guys & gals here are familiar with ECW's 911. You know, the big guy who came out & chokeslammed people. 911's purpose in ECW was simple, whenever he chokeslammed someone, it brought closure to a storyline.
Now, WWE & TNA have put out some great crap over the past few years, a few of which needed to get some premature closure, which is where 911 comes in. WWE, TNA or whomever should develop their own version of 911 & send him out to chokeslam someone in a storyline that is flailing or someone lumbered with a crappy gimmick.
Which gimmicks/storylines could have done with the 911 treatment?
For me:
-I would've liked to see 911 storm the ring & chokeslam Chris Sabin & Co. when they were doing that god-awful Jackass schtick.
-"Blind" Nidia
-"Stuttering" Matt Morgan
& a fair few that'll come to me later on, I'm sure.
There's a bonus as well. Let's imagine that this new 911 fails to get over with the masses, well, he can chokeslam himself!
Anyone else got any opinons on this matter? Would it be a good idea?

Maxx is a good friend of mine, and I say more power to him for putting something that he likes in his sig(what does that say for me since I have a pic of me in my sig?). There are ways to block sigs as well(both provided by the forum and independent means). |

I thought this would be a funny little thread to get people cracking back & forth... Maybe I should just make it another "Whine About Maxx's Sig" thread. |

to contribute to the thread:
-The Dominick storyline- Just have 911 come out and chokeslam the kid.
-"Don't Fire Eric"- Have him chokeslam Eric
-The Roode/Young stuff- Read above.

When 911 showed up in WCW as "Tombstone" calling out The Giant, I could almost envision an alternate reality where 911 would come out and get rid of Tombstone nearly immediately.
Honestly, all he could basically do was no-sell and chokeslam.
Although, there was a point where I would have enjoyed a chokeslam-fest on the Corporate Ministry. Maybe that is why I enjoyed all the Stunner-fests...

Another thought...
Remember the "King's Court" vs. "Doink's Clowns" Survivor Series match?
Imagine 911 chokeslamming Pink, Dink, Wink, Queasy, Sleazy, and Cheesy. Chaos. Pure amusing chaos.

I remember 911 he was a pretty cool character.
Personally I would LOVE to have seen a 911/Big Dick Johnson at one
of the early episodes of the new ECW. Would have made for a nice
cameo.

Eh, I dunno, as far as storytelling goes, it sounds like the very definition of a deus ex machina...can't say I'd be too happy about seeing that happen regularly in wrestling (I never saw ECW back in the day, so maybe it worked better than described).

The thing with 911 was it required a big guy to do a chokeslam and not much else. Now I am fairly sure WWE development has had several guys go through who have been big but limited in the ring. So this could be an ideal gimmick for someone ...
Maybe that 'russian' guy they had? What was his name Oleg or something?

Seriously, just have him be at Regal's beckon(kinda like 3 minute warning were for Bischoff) |

I mean, when WWE drops a storyline (especially when you're a hoss like he was) because they found out you can't wrestle, you have to be pretty damn bad. His name was Oleg Prudius, though they changed his name to Vladimir Kozlov or something when he debuted. |
