What WCW Fans Are Pondering While Watching RAW For The First Time
By: The DDT Digest Staff
As a pro wrestling fan who reads the Internet, over time you've probably followed the news on both WCW and the WWF. Of course, there are probably a number of WCW fans that haven't followed the WWF at all, now watching the WWF for the first time because they have no choice. Have you ever wondered what they are thinking as they watch the WWF for the first time since the WWF bought the WCW?
We at DDT Digest pondered this and came up with a list of questions the average WCW-only viewer would ask while watching RAW for the first time.
- "'Stone Cold' Steve Austin? So THAT'S what happened to Brian Pillman's partner from the Hollywood Blondes."
- "Why isn't Chris Jericho making Perry Saturn wear a dress?"
- "That big guy... that's Andre's kid, right?"
- "When did Jean Paul Levesque stop curtseying?"
- "What happened to Raven's facepaint?"
- "That Jerry Lynn guy sure seems familiar but I can't place the face."
- "HaWho? What happened to Meng's name and Hardcore Title?"
- "The Heavyweight champ sucking up to the Intercontinental champ? Steve Austin's brush with greatness must be over."
- "Shouldn't Chris Benoit be champion?"
- "What are all of those people doing in the upper deck? I've never seen anyone sitting in those seats before."
- "How come the guy in the suit isn't tearing off his clothes and dropping elbows on invisible people?"
- "Why doesn't anyone in this promotion use a back leg front kick or a full arm drag and twist?"
- "Did they ever figure out who stole Eddy Guerrero's wallet?"
- "Is Kane's mask a direct result of being splashed in the face with scalding hot coffee?"
- "I don't understand why Lex Luger's suddenly losing so much... he gets beat by EVERYONE now. I mean, I've never ever HEARD of the Brooklyn Brawler before."
- "I don't understand... what school did Shane Douglas supposedly just graduate from?"
- "So, that old guy... he's the one scared of Bischoff, right?"
- "Triple-H looks dominant now, but I think he would be INVULNERABLE if his wife would slip him her size 7 high heel during every match."
- "I kept hearing that the WWF made a major star out of one of the Armstrong Brothers. Where is he? I haven't seen him."
- "Say, wasn't K-Kwick a part of Master P's posse in 1999?"
- "Ken Shamrock? Shouldn't he come out dressed in a leprechaun's outfit talking about yellow moons, pink hearts, green clovers, etc?"
- "Hey... I heard Chyna was a dude, like that No Doubt chick."
- "Whoa, this federation gets RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE to sing their theme songs!"
- "'Stone Cold' Steve Austin had a career ending neck injury, right? And he's... he's what, MARRIED to Debra? So did she hit him in the head with the big stupid metal briefcase or what?"
- "That announcer looks like a cheap take off on Oklahoma, except he's not doing the facial tic as well."
- "The 'Commissioner' used to be Cactus Jack? Yeah, THAT'LL put butts in the seats."
- "When the heck did that crappy announcer who looks like Michael Buffer become the CEO of the entire company?"
- "Boy, the WWF must be hurting if 'Lord' Steven Regal is their commisioner. What, is 'Squire' David Taylor the head referee?"
And finally,
- "How many weeks are we from Hulk Hogan making his return and squashing Steve Austin for the WWF Heavyweight Title?"
