| #1 Posted on 7.3.03 1356.37 Reposted on: 7.3.10 1359.08 | So i was watching Smackdown last night and said to my friend they shouldn't have revealed that Kurt was injured, they should've just shaved Charle's head and passed him off as Kurt, and said that CHarlie was the one that got injured.
So it got me thinking, they actually COULD do that. Except bring in Eric Angle and shave his head, and try and pass him off as Kurt. Now I don't mean have the WWE try and make the fans believe he is Kurt because we're smarter than that (I hope.) But I mean make it an angle that Team Angle is trying to pass Eric off as Kurt. It could be sort of like the Owen/Blue Blazer gimmick where it's obvious to everyone but they are trying to hid it anyway. Promote this thread! | | El Pescado

I even dug it when Kane was able to shoot fireballs.
But Team Angle trying to pass off Eric as Kurt would be great, but even better if they had Christian duped the entire time. Imagine the looks Jericho would give him. | It's False

| #6 Posted on 8.3.03 2047.58 Reposted on: 8.3.10 2054.05 | I second the suggestion for bringing in Eric Angle. Give him that headgear/wig contraption that Angle wore right after his head got shaved, and have him claim that his Olympic Folicles had suddenly sprang into action or something.
While I agree with the Eric Angle suggestion, I disagree with the "suspention of disbelief" idea. Yes, it works for people like The Hurricane and Kane, but it isn't the same when replacing wrestlers. See Ramon, Razor and Diesel. It would be better if Eric acted like he was Kurt while everyone was obviously in on the joke, trying to get him to admit who he really was. | asteroidboy

[EDIT!]
Damn, this just popped into my head! Obviously the pay off to this whole bit would be Kurt revealed doing Eric's voice, Wizard of Oz style! "Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!"

It doesn't matter, if he sucks at wrestling or on the mic (I don't really know since i've only seen him those few shows he was on) we will expect him to suck, because we know he isn't really Kurt. Only Christian will be fooled like ThreepMe suggested. | Mr. Boffo

But there's always the PPV's! It may even work better that way. Picture Christian running into Eric at Backlash.
