Maybe I'm not privy to some of your information, Ev, but I find it hard
to believe that Paul E. would want somebody drugged up that's on his payroll.
(Granted, he keeps Benoit who, as good as he is, is more juiced up than an
orchard full of oranges, but still, as far as I'm aware steroids aren't a
mind-altering drug.)

I agree that Page does have some potential...but I'm kinda wondering
right now how he *can* be used in a profitable manner. If you're booking
him, how would you do it? I'm at a loss myself.

FWIW, and this doesn't necessarily mean anything, but Duggan is
married with children. More often than not, that does mean something.

Not that these kinds of stories aren't possible in this biz, but considering
how Tammy and DWG do not get along, I'm gonna have to say that this didn't
happen. Senor Hummingbird was doing a lot of chirping.

Well then he should have a job by tomorrow with ECW.

Ummm, DDP is one of the more underrated wrestlers in the business (as proven
by your statement of him not having talent). His problem is that he's misused
all over.

: The evening begins with:... a Sting interview.

WAIT! I thought he was going to the WWF? ;)

[compressed]
: The guy's(Renegade) talented, but he's clumsy as hell. Weird combination.

I've seen him do a hangspring elbow before. You're right about the fact
that he's got some skills, but he don't have a clue about how to put it
all together. The tape editors must cringe at the sight of him. :)

[compressed]
: The term for the Saggs finisher, is the "Shitty Elbow." I believe him.

Or as Heenan calls it, "The Five Point Landing".
Speaking of the Nasties, I've noticed that they call "The Pit Stop"...
"Pitty City" in WCW. Now, you can't tell me Vince copyrighted the name of a
move that's payoff is a face full or armpit! :)

But if you think these are the only three guys in the business working matches
while on the bottle, if not something else...
Wrestling companies don't give two shits if a guy is snorting coke, popping
pills, whatever, if they're in the promotion. Some guys need to do it in order
to maintain themselves, and makes it easier (and less painful) to work in the
ring. The companies only care because it's a P.R. nightmare to know that a
wrestler is on something. So if say, 2 Cold Scorpio, who failed a WCW drug
test a while back, is still working in coke in ECW (which I don't know if he
is or not), ECW isn't really gonna care, cause the media pressure if it got
out that he was on coke, would be non-existent.

There's a feud right there. Diamond Doll becomes interested in Alex Wright,
DDP goes apeshit. You have a feud and some good matches to boot.

I think it is safe to say at this point, that he does not belong in this
business. Some guys take time to develop, but he's had his time, and he's not
gonna develop shit.

Why not? He's not under any scrutiny from the media. An advantage of not being
one of the big two.

Well, they are, but that ain't the purpose of 'em.

In WCW? That's gonna be tough no doubt, considering who they ARE pushing. But
I'm sure the WWF could easily find a smart-talking heel gimmick for him.
Certainly more talented than Lawler from a wrestling standpoint.

I am going out on a limb and say that Evan was referring to 2 Cold
Scorpio...fired from WCW for pot; hired by ECW.

While I did make that connection later on, that wasn't my immediate inference.
Those who should know what I'm talking about, do.

WCW WAS FORCED TO FIND SOMEONE WITHIN THE ORGANIZATION THAT TESTED DIRTY,
AFTER THE EXPOSE' ON ABC TV IN EARLY MAY OF 95. OBVIOUSLY THEY ONLY TEST
THE "JOBBERS". HULK AND HIS CREW MUST HAVE SOME KIND OF A "NO TEST" CLAUSE
IN THIER DEALS. WCW
MAY HAVE THOUGHT IT WAS SMART BY HIRING HULK AND THE OTHER BURN-OUTS, BUT
IN MY OPINION, IT HAS REALLY DESTROYED IT'S FUTURE
AS A VIABLE ONGOING SOAP/SPORTS OPERA. ONCE THINGS BECOME THIS BORING AND
PREDICTABLE, WHO'S GONNA HANG ON TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS? THEY'VE NEVER BEEN
GOOD AT DEVELOPING NEW TALENT...
NOW, THANKS TO HULK AND HIS BUTT BUDDIES, THEY'LL NEVER HAVE ANY NEW
TALENT TO DEVELOPE. ALEX WRIGHT? HE LOOKS LIKE AN AIDS
PATIENT TO ME! BUT THEN, HULK ISN'T LOOKING ALL THAT GREAT IETHER!
