I'm sitting here watching my tape from smackdown (until it get's better it's just a bit more entertaining to fastforward to the interesting parts) and I'm watching the part in the back with Animal trying to convince Heidenreich to shave his head. When I first read the spoilers, I thought there were just tryin to make it LoD 2005 and Heidenreich was trying to suck up, but now it seems like it's getting place where Animal is fixated on Making Heidenreich the new Hawk like a crazy Boyfriend would make his girlfriend constantly change herself until she turned into his old girlfriend.
These damn Smackdown bookers, I swear that's probably where they're headed, and HeidenReich has a breakdown one day and goes "But... but, I'm not him..." sobbing uncontrollably.

I thought Animal said he didn't want to replace Hawk.And Hedi's haircut is actually Animal's old one.I like this LOD 2005 thing,but they dont seem to be promoting it that such way,I dont think.They introduce them as Road warrior Animal and Heidenreich.

I think this is a good thing for Heidenreich. He gets teamed up with a veteran who can teach him a lot. And Heidenreich seems the kind of guy who will have more succes in a team than as a single wrestler.

I wonder if they're considering a new name for Heidenreich to go with his new mohawk?
Beast? Eagle? Vulture?

I miss th old Heidenriech. The one who would march to the ring, find a friend, and then read us a wonderful poem. Big Bad Jon is to good to waste like thus.

so they're going for the whole.
Animal is Ned Flanders, Hawk is Maude Flanders, and Heidenreich was that Country singer?

I actually kinda dig Road Warrior Beast. I''d love to see Heidenreich go all out Road Warrior. It beats hus current gimmick by a mile.

They'll probably have a backstage skit where Heidenreich's sleeping and Animal's quietly dyeing and cutting his hair. Followed next week by him forcing heidenreich to wear Hawk's face paint. And demand tha the takes up smoking to get that weird screechy voice ala hawk and pillman (yes I know it's due to a lifetime of throat cancer surgeries). |

Man...I must be the only one who absolutely hates this gimmick. Regardless of the cheap, nostalgia pops it's getting now, it's bad for the brand because....
1. Putting the tag team belts on a washed up, overweight, out of shape former wrestler and a stiff, still green, rookie wrestler is idiotic. The Smackdown tag scene was actually starting to shape up nicely, with the additions of MnM, the Mexi-cools, and the rumored debut of Balls and Axl. WWE doesn't even trust "LOD 2005" enough to wrestle real matches. Just 15 second squashes.
2. This is exactly the opposite of what Heidenreich needs if he wants to progress in this business. He needs to be in the ring with a veteran, sure. But he needs to be in the ring with a veteran that can help him learn how to work, not wrestle squash matches. He needs to be led in the ring. Invariably this tag team will implode (as they all do) into one partner turning on the other. A Heidenreich/Animal match would be a travesty.
3. They did this same thing with LOD 2000, while Hawk was still alive and it didn't work then either. No one wanted to see Droz and Animal. The bottom line is that Hawk was Three-Quarters of the talent in a two man team.
I respect the opinion of everyone here, but as much as most people here seem to hate Johnny Ace, I can't believe that him pushing his brother back on TV just to relive some former glory and sell a few DVD's at the expense of younger, more talented performers, isn't raising the ire of more people.....Anyhow....long winded rant over...... ;D

It would be funny if Animal tried to turn JOHN into the next member of Legion of Doom/Doofus and John eventually loses patience with it. In news, they're apparently moving the Mexicools over to the tag team division. So it looks like they're- agh- building the tag division AROUND the Legion of Dork. |
