    Oh the former. You can write off the face/heel deal by time passing etc. The invisible shield is nothing more than the script says not to follow.

    I'm thinking the script. It's a pattern that has worked before with Hulk Hogan so it can work again.

    Not at all. They'll be having weekly tapings instead of monthly so they'll go up. The place only holds a few hundred people so they'll sell those out easily.

    He didn't think much of Rogers' in-ring abilities.

    Thesz was a legit grappler, he could go in there and legitimately kick ass in a shoot fight if necessary, and it was necessary sometimes because some opponents would try to go into business for themselves.

    To my knowledge, Thesz hated Rogers and made no secret about it. Thesz believed that the NWA World Heavyweight Champion should be someone who was a legitimately great mat technician who could handle himself in a shoot fight. Rogers was loaded with charisma and personality, had a great build and was flashy but he wasn't a shooter. Thesz's opinion was shared, supposedly, by other notable shooters like Karl Gotch and Billy Miller; they broke the guy's hand not too long after he won the NWA WHC from Pat O'Connor. It didn't help things that Rogers was accused of preferred to work the Northeastern territory, AKA Vince Sr.'s company, that he had a big mouth and that he was a massive draw; his bout with O'Conner drew some 38,600 or so fans, drew the biggest gate pro wrestling would see for the next 20 years and set the pro wrestling attendance record in North America until it was broken by WCCW in 1984 with it's Parade of Champions show that served also as a memorial to David Von Erich.

    Aside from just not liking him personally, Rogers was the undeniable proof that pro wrestling was changing and that these old time shooters were essentially on borrowed time, that their days as headliners were almost over.

    How stupid is the idea of a Drake Maverick/R-Truth tag team? Clearly the Tag Team division is not the most serious thing in the world, so why can't we see a brief Drake/Truth run together?

    Imagine them teaming together, Clearing the ring of the bad guys, and one of them rolling the other up mid-match and taking the 24/7 title, then continuing the match.
    IYO SKY, Shotzi, Bayley, Gigi Dolan, Alba Fyre, Asuka, Kayla Braxton.

    Out of the two The Game. Personally I still reckon King Of Kings is his best solo theme. Line In The Sand is his best overall though to me

    Why didn't Superstar Billy Graham turn face in say '77 or '78?

    For me, it was always Time to Play the Game. I still get a bit of a rush when it hits. It's a combination of Lemmy's voice and the lyrics of the song talking about "control" and manipulation coupled with being a tough guy that you can't outfight or outthink. That, in a nutshell, was Triple H's "Cerebral Assassin" character summed up. He loved power, was a master manipulator, played people for fools and yet could more often than not kick anybody's ass if and when it came down to it.

    Bow Down to the King works too but I associate "Time to Play the Game" with Triple H during the prime years of his career. For me, I don't know if any other wrestler had better entrance music or, at least entrance music that wasn't so in tune with who and what their character was all about.
