They legitimately think this is how to get Eddie over.
Of course! He's the hottest guy on the roster right now, no puns intended! In the technicallity roll he's still a "HEEL" getting face cheers like Austin did, no one wants to boo him. He's so entertaining the casual fan thinks its great. The SMARKS might beg to differ a bit. Wait this topic was covered in another thred...umm...ok this a side note. Anyways apparently you give the hottest wrestler in the company a truck full of something to get them over every once in while.

I think any Big Show match has an inherent relationship to shit as it is.
How many guys have they introduced with the 'raw rookie trying to break in' gimmick? Cena, Spanky, Jordan, Zach Gowen and now London. Nice originality, WWE.
Don't forget The Legend Killer Randy Orton's run on Smackdown that was basically "Geez Whiz I'm a wrestler!" Oh and Stacy said that he touched her.

Vince v Steph in Saturday night trailer park match in the never ending McMahonathon is bad enough, but a kaka sukka contest with Show and Eddie. This is stretching the limits of even my poor taste.
I'm looking forward to which relative gets called up next week though. I'm guessing it won't be cousin Domingo who is a rocket scientist.

conspiracy theories/Rant
1. Vince McMahon's strategy IS to get the fans (people like us who actually care about it)to stop watching wrestling so he only has to worry about entertaining the audience (the live crowd who, like some people who go to concerts, are there just to be somewhere.)
2. Vince wants to get everyone to stop watching so the company goes bankrupt, affecting everyone except his family, which will live happily ever after off his $1/2 billion in the bank.
3. He is a genius and the most entertaining man on television with a family to match. Some people get it and the rest just don't.
I guess I'm one of the rest.To Me it's like someone took 2 puzzles with pieces missing from each one to an art show. then got a bunch of 4 and 12 year olds to try and to make it one finished piece. The 4 year olds are just randomly putting pieces together and generally messing up everything the 12 year olds keep trying to do right. all the while neither the 4 or 12 year olds know that it's 2 puzzles and pices are missing. Then 2 adults come by. One says its obviously a flawed concept to begin with while the other calls it a moden art masterpiece in a constant state of development. Since art is completely objective, who is really right.
I am a wrestling fan and really do care about it because when done right, it really entertains me. But like alot of things in life, I have a different opinion of what's "right and entertaining" and what's "wrong and stupid." It just happens that my opinion on good wrestling generally agrees with alot of what's said on this board.But even if by a miracle someone in WWE said "OK , let's get the Wienerboard posters to book the next month," how much real agreement could we get and what would things look like for that month? and what would the affect be on ratings/live attendance?
Rant over. I guess I got off topic but seeing as these spoilers set up a literally "craptacular" episode of SD, I just had to vent.

So much for the 'London will never even get a title shot in Vince-land' argument, no? certainly a lot less worse ways to debut.

I remember some people disliked the beer truck incident. I know a lot of people hated the milk truck angle. I actually liked them both, but this is reaching into the 'so bad it's entertaining' territory. Actually, that pretty much sums WWE up recently. | darkmatcher

You gotta think that all this poop TV time is simply just a metaphor for the WWE product.
