It was a very OZ type moment though, I could imagine some sweet, sweet man love happening in the ring there for a second or two.

| #22 Posted on 10.3.03 1518.33 Reposted on: 10.3.10 1520.11 | I must admit, I feel exactly the opposite way about young Nathan. I think he should be more subtle. The one time that he snapped at an interviewer, I thought "tone it down man, you are legit-scary enough that you don't need to over-act to get over how scary you are." I felt like the attack on his sparring partner was better played. He was frustrated, he lost his temper, he lashed out. I see many DQ-losses in this man's future...

Originally posted by Lord of the Manor I think this is all quite funny. It's like it's meant to be a straightforward acknowledgement that Vince loves the big men, regardless of any talent or skills they have.
Last night they basically said "Oh, this guy is a big monster, but hey, he can't wrestle"
wow.
You've got to love how they're basically ADMITTING this guy doesn't know how to wrestle. Of course, you've got to wonder how much patience the fans will have for a guy who can't wrestle his way out of a paper bag.
Hasn't Vince learned ANYTHING from Scott Steiner? | Swordsman Yen

| #24 Posted on 10.3.03 1707.18 Reposted on: 10.3.10 1707.57 | Well, the mistake with Scott Steiner (besides signing him of course) was that he was immediately propelled into a main event slot with HHH without a thorough evaluation. Had they done so, they would've seen that Steiner is about as exciting as a dentist convention.
They've established Nathan's character as an unstable brute who doesn't know a wristlock from a wristwatch, so The Undertaker has taken him under his wing. Now granted that UT's expertise in scientific wrestling is open for debate, he does have the experience to teach young Nathan the finer points.
I'm sure Nathan won't and shouldn't be in the main event slot just yet, but let him have his chance to wrestle. Besides, we need a target to unleash those prison and milk jokes. :) | ALL ORIGINAL POSTS IN THIS THREAD ARE NOW AVAILABLE |
