Thanks, thecubsfan. I should have thought of cleaning it up.

Geez, the gimmick was so awful! I really think that's the reason Holly continues to get pushes to this day. Every time he sinks past a certain point, he clears his throat and gently reminds Vince about Sparky Plugg and the MX...
Even Bart is over in Japan right now getting a hella Gaijin push because the MX period is PROOF the guy'll do ANYTHING for a paycheck.
And people wonder why Cornette vows to live longer than Vince for the single purpose of being able to piss on his grave... | Mild Mannered Madman

Um... no.
A) Michael Barton (the former Bart Gunn) has pretty much fallen off the map in Japan. He hasn't had anything resembling a push in years.
B) Cornette never said that about McMahon(The late Michael "Hawk" Hegstrand did.) He WORKS for Vince McMahon and has always to my knowledge spoken well of him. Cornette may however have said it about Vince Russo. | StaggerLee

Odds that if you leave this gift up to your GF's mother that instead you'll get a prison drama about Turkish heroin smuggling: 5-1.

Actually, she is really on the ball when it comes to crap I like. SO, hopefully I will make out okay and not have to buy it on my own! | Dr. Ed Powers

| #10 Posted on 10.10.04 0442.35 Reposted on: 10.10.11 0443.47 | Okay, you don't want to include the "Bombastic" Bob and "Bodacious" Bart era but what "Ravishing" Randy Rose? And when you think about it, since Holly and the another Gunn are teaming together, why don't they revive the MX. Billy Gunn suits the "Bodacious" monciker more so than Bart and he looks like "Sweet" Stan. | ALL ORIGINAL POSTS IN THIS THREAD ARE NOW AVAILABLE |
