Anyone who is praising this is just doing so to be different. oh please, anyone getting angry over this takes it far too seriously It wouldnt of been Hornswoggle if Kennedy hadnt of doped.

The real question is whether the USA Lady liked it or not...

As it stands, they've just wasted a good two or three months of tv time we'll never get back. Pretty much, for a comedy payoff.

so why is this a bad thing?? you know they could never gotten away with this angle in a serious manner(like McMahon's death) so why even try?
It's too bad some of you can't just enjoy the ride.

Ok, Some people liked and it and got a laugh out of it. But really, Where do you go from here with this? No high profile match, The skits will be funny before it starts getting old. Long term, This makes no sense. There isnt a long term with this angle anymore KENNEDY was going to be the son, but he screwed that for himself. This gets them out of the angle and very little has to be done now. The Son didn't have to be revealed now. It was just last week they announced they would tell us this week. So they couldn't wait? When they knew last week Kenndey was going to be suspended. They didn't have to announce this week.

I don't see why people are so pissy at the company for. They were going to go for the serious route with Kennedy, but Kennedy smurfed it up. They had a week to come up with something else, so they went with a comedy angle. Exactly. Everything WWE had planned for this (going on 4 months now) has been screwed up twice. Once they saved it and the second time they had no choice but, to go the comedy route. People were going to b**** no matter who was named the son but, to b**** at them for something they had very little to no control over is out there. Having Stevie as the bastard would have been even better, and possibly funnier

Yeah, it wasn't that bad. I laughed, and agree with the person who said you don't "mark" your real wrestlers permanently, cause you pretty much would have to stick with that story forever.

I actually do think this is a smart idea.
come on, it's not the WORST thing that happened. HHH as his son was too obvious. atleast now we can get comedy bits between the mcmahons and a leprechaun.

...I actually like it.
Seriously, WHY would you want someone big to be stuck as a McMahon forever? They would be stuck.
Midget McMahon can be written off if they are pushed too far.

This was supposed to be a serious angle and one in which Kennedy was catapulted into main event status. However, he smurfed that up himself. So if you're going to blame anyone if this angle sucks, blame Kennedy. Yes. I suppose in a perfect world, we could blame Kennedy for the 'writing staff's' inability to produce compelling TV. This is the second week in a row that we've had a BS McMahon segment instead of an actual main event. Yes, of course. It's Kennedy's fault that the writer monkeys for RAW couldn't churn out anything even remotely more interesting than a quick sight gag for a cheap laugh. You know, instead of making the angle actually pay off. You can't be serious placing the blame on Kennedy, can you?

Kennedy or anyone serious would've been a far worse outcome.

It wasn't THAT unpredictable guys. If you dig up some of the Raw threads from last week, people pretty much guessed Hornswoggle right after the "looking up" remark.
I don't care that this is the ending they went with, but it just seems like they had all this serious build-up, and they went with a novelty joke answer. And I'm sorry, but where can they go with this? Weeks and weeks of "Look he's humping Vince's leg! He's a midget" will get old, and fast.

Seriously..
How does Russo keep employed by both WWE and TNA at the same time?
But really..
I was praying the entire time that the words "break the walls down" or "one of kind" would play. Just because that was two hours I spent watching a show that I was switching between that and the spanish channel's soap opera show with some very attractive girls in revealing outfits. And I watched solely so I could go onto this forum to post the following Simpson's quote..
"Rest assured... I was on the internet within minutes expressing my displeasure"

People already crying, hating this and it didnt even come in full effect. Ive always liked hornswoggle. this is great. Expect some great tv between the too. VInce is irish, so is hornswoggle. Hornswoggle used to be called, the little basturd. This fits soooo well. So what people wanted it to be Keneddy. well he screwed up.

It was funny I guess, but I hated the story from the beginning so the payoff didn't affect me.
Of the three I thought to myself that Sandman looked the most like vince, they kinda had the same facial features......but they said the bastard wasn't "extreme" so what was Sandman doing out there at the end to begin with? He must not be on the ECW roster right?
I gave up watching WWE pretty much, I just like to follow along online, it's more fun that way ;D Besides every god damn time I have randomly switched to Raw in the past 3 years 80% of the time they were in the middle of some bimbo coming out to ringside or a crap womens match

Kennedy was the one who violated the Wellness Policy and got himself suspended the week before what should have the biggest night in his career so, I'd say yeah.

But if HHH was the son, we could've gotten actual....wrestling matches. I know those are dirty words on Raw right now, but honestly, is promoting wrestling on a wrestling show that bad?

I wonder how many people would defend TNA if they had a midget win the XDivision title, defend it on a number of occasions and then be the pay off of a 6 week angle that had tons of segments devoted to it.
Hmmmm....
