Comment on Monstrous mistake: Why Brodus Clay’s new ‘Funkasaurus’ gimmick might be destined for extinction by Nathan

The problem is that the so-called creative team is not creative at all. They rehash old story lines and use childish gimmicks. It works for them because the majority of today’s society has limited brain power. Therefore, the WWE and TNA can make millions off the gullible public with unrealistic, unoriginal and just plain stupid story lines geared towards kids and mentally challenged adults. Nonsense such as BARRett BARRage or Kane rehashing his monster mask gimmick are simply illogical nonsense. Using the TRY anything approach doesn’t work. For wrestling to be better it has to stop being aimed at “special ed” babies. Until that happens (which may be never) WWE will remain UNDERtainment for not reaching its full potential. Last, but not least, changing John Cena’s character from a “superman” like character to a weak nobody will not sell tickets to anyone with half a brain. Unfortunately the smart or “normal” fans are being totally disrespected. Did you all really believe Vince McMoron was blown up?

Love the part where Wolfe gigs himself for color.

Classic. Verne Gagne and Vince McMahon both present. Loved Cosell’s selling of realism, lol

Why do they always give big guys like him ball-squeezin’ size-too-small red singlets? At least Akeem had a full body spandex dashiki…

“Sambatino” and “Monzone”. LOL! I’d love to hear the behind-the-scene story of the match with Buddy Wolfe.

Cossell is great here, with the snide comments about wrestling: “Beautiful performance by Buddy Wolfe. Well, they must have good dramatic classes at St. Cloud” Howard would have been an interesting wrestling announcer, certainly better than Dennis James. Is that Vince holding the mike at the end? It looks a bit like him and I thought Senior was involved in promoting this. I assume Bruiser is there since he and Verne shared Chicago.

I love reading old ECW and Memphis stories. After reading three books on ECW, I had never heard most of this before. A great read. Keep up the good work!

Clay now looks like the love child of Dusty Rhodes and P.N. Newz.
