Does anyone else think this guy sucks, is boring and useless. I never
thought he was any good. I hope he has to job to a Nitro Girl or
something.

I'm still waiting to hear these mic skills he's supposed to have. I
think Flair said he was a "blown up 180 pounder" and that's all I see.
He's not that big but he's got a big time case of juiceface. He's not bad
but he's nothing special. From what I've seen, I would rate Candido
higher.

I suppose I'm in the minority, but I've always been a Douglas mark. Hell, I
even liked the Dynamic Dudes.

I'm so ashamed right now. :)

ME! The French Fries is one of the worst technical wrestlers I've ever seen!

Not me. He's a great heel, excellent on the mic and watchable in the ring.
I see a WCW World title reign in the future.

Now that's a fucking scary thought.

I don't know... I kinda like Shane Douglas...

I mark oot uncontrollably when he says, "THE FRANCHISE!!! THE FRANCHISE!!! I'M
THE FRANCHISE!!! THE FRANCHISE!!!"

But it seems like he can't cut a really good promo in WCW... In ECW, he was
pretty good...

His style was almost like HHH is now and how HBK was when he was a main event
heel... They talk as if wrestling is a real sport... I like that...

Well first off I'll ignore the fact that you are a webtv poster and use
that reason for why you posted this.

Maybe, just maybe it is because he isn't allowed to do the character he
wants to. Nah, that would make sense.

Me, too. I think he gets a bad break since his rampid injuries. He was
really coming into his own in ECW... and injuries and a bad jump to WCW
didn't help much. That's too bad, because I think pound for pound he
could have been one of the greats...

S&P. Imagine if Douglas had went back to the WWF NOT as the damn Dean?

I know exactly what you mean. It's hard to play 'What If' in RSPW...
because "He sucks, she sucks"... blah blah blah... but I mark for Shane
Douglas... just for what he could he, and could have been.

>S&P. Imagine if Douglas had went back to the WWF NOT as the damn Dean?

I wrote a comparison post called 'Steve Austin v. Shane Douglas' over at
Delphi, the main points were:

1. 'Screw me once shame on you, screw me twice shame on me'-Which mean that ok,
yeah maybe Flair did hold him down (and maybe not). But for him to get caught
in that same situation twice is inexcusable and maybe an indication that
Douglas is a shit-starter. And I used to love Douglas too, until about 1997
when he kept getting hurt.

2. True talent always makes it.

3. This point was not included, so I'll add it now. THE DEAN WAS NOT A BAD
GIMMICK! It was clever and fitted his personality perfectly and Shane was a
jackass if he thought that he was going to go over and be 'the Franchise' in
(then) family-friendly Titanland. No doubt in my mind, that if Shane didn't
take his ball and go home, that the Dean would've been over huge.
