I still can't figure out why Sandman was reading the Money section of the USA Today.

He wasn't creative enough to come up with some "shoot" insults: Sandman (insinuate that he's stole Stone Cold's gimmick, or talk about his total lack of wrestling ability) The irony here being that Sandman was doing the gimmick way before Stone Cold was, and the case could be made that SC stole the gimmick from him, since Sandman was doing it while Austin was in ECW doing his "Superstar" gimmick.

You beat me to it. I guess JBL thinks that Sandman had a time machine that he used to go forward to 1996; then, he saw Stone Cold, went back to '92 and THEN ripped off the gimmick. It all makes sense. Either that or Layfield's an ignorant, elitist prick. These insults are obviously meant to build the "originals" vs. newbies feud back up. Hopefully, Vince has enough sense to realize that the guys from the real ECW are the favored ones and that the best thing for business is to appease the fans and not his own ego. But, based on his track record, I wouldn't count on it. Since Sheik is supposedly up for HOF induction, perhaps there could be some storyline with Vince fighting against his induction as a personal attack against Sabu, and in turn, Sabu leading the originals group against Vince? Or, make Punk the heel leader of the newbies group and RVD the face leader of the originals, as BD Punk AKA Mr. IWC said, and you have a feud that practically writes itself. If they put some genuine effort into fixing it, I'll start watching again. I'll just have to wait and see.

But he has taken the attitude that he's a Stone Cold ripoff as well. But this is WWE we're talking about. Logic/history would cause the company to collapse on itself.

Being from Dublin I found the Irish line to be GREAT! Not that I have a problem with people from Northern Ireland calling themselves Irish.

One of them should have insulted Vince for wearing the same suit two nights in a row.

"You're from Northern Ireland, so you're not really Irish"? How is that supposed to insult me? It doesn't get me wound up or irate, but as another poster noted, at least WWE know there is a distinction between Ireland & N. Ireland, despite how Finlay is announced as being from "Belfast, Ireland".

I thought alot of this with Vince to be lame and not productive. Really VINCE GO AWAY! I mean we should sse less of him and not more, his gimmick is really stale and unintreasting. He needs to get off tv after Wrestlemania. Seriously he's boring and the comments he made were stupid and racist!
