Did anything ever come of that time he was laid out backstage and Tarver was randomly hanging around? A couple week later he came back and fired Dolph and Vickie, or something

Vickie took over, kept trying to screw Edge, finally did it so Dolph Ziggler was awarded the belt...only for Teddy to make his return, make Dolph go one on one with Edge. Edge won the belt, it's revealed Dolph assualted Teddy, both were fired, and that's how they ended up on Raw. Holla.

maybe a heel turn for Teddy Long would freshen him up

If CM Punk was Smackdown's GM you wouldn't want to dump him.

The thing about Teddy that sucks is how openly antagonistic he's been towards Christian lately. I know evil GMs antagonizing faces is par for the coarse, but singling out one who is frustrated just makes him look like a dick. Especially when Mark Henry interfered and he initially came out with "Well Christian, you lost again!" it's like he knows he can be a prick since he's the boss.

I remember a couple of years ago Vince appeared on Smackdown and told Teddy that while he had been GM for many years, he hasn't really done anything.
A few years later and it's the same thing.

Teddy Long has to go. There was a time when he was the best GM in years, because he didn't play it face or heel. He played it down the middle. However, his act has become stale. They need to do something different with him or remove him from the role. Let somebody else run with the SD! ball for a change. His handling of this entire Orton/Christian thing has been ridiculous. Christian has to keep earning title shots, but Orton was literally handed one because fans cheered him the most. That is absurd.

I actually miss Teddy as a manger. He was awesome with Mark Jindrak...although no one remembers that. I liked his as a manager of Skyscrapers and Doom in WCW and later as the manager of Rodney Mack/D-Lo Brown when he first started saying things like 'Holla Holla' and 'Dolla Dolla Bills!' and 'Hatorade,' not to mention him telling the fans to 'Back the Mack' and be 'Down with the Brown.' I don't recall him with Jindrak, but his 2003 run as a manager was ridiculously entertaining. One of the few times racist-heel gimmick has ever worked. I actually watched Armageddon 2003 last week and seeing Long with Henry was phenomenal.

The last time I watched Velocity, Bill Demott had his "Knock Knock" gimmick, Kanyon was teasing his Buddhist turn and Crash Holly was a Mattitude Follower.

Caught it last week though, not a bad show.

I'm thinking Christian should start attempting to get rid of Long as GM. Well Christian at the 2005 RR signed Carlito's petition to get him fired as GM. So this is Kayfabe Karma for Captain Charisma. If they use this as an angle, you deserve a medal. I mean hey, the reason for the Punk-Orton feud happened 3 years ago
