| #1 Posted on 20.9.05 2210.03 Reposted on: 20.9.12 2212.30 | On WWE.com, Kerwin White has a video where he introduces his "caddy" OVW's Nick Nemeth.

And here's the link to his bio at the OVW website. http://www.ovwrestling.com/superstars/nemeth/profile.htm .
Any OVW guys around to give their opinion on him? | Promote this thread! |  | Lord of the Manor

| #2 Posted on 21.9.05 0357.39 Reposted on: 21.9.12 0358.07 | I think Vince has really missed an opportunity with Nemeth,as he could have been the first "deaf" wrestler. He could have cut his promos in sign language. I'm sure they could even do it tastefully.
Oh well, I'm sure he'll be repackaged soon enough, so maybe next time. | Jonny_English

In fact, as I recall, he's such a Randy Orton clone he's doing Randy's mannerisms and finisher. (although I may be thinking of Ken Doane here) | DrewDewce

Nemeth's got a good look, seems to talk well (without knowing how many takes they did), and he and Chavo seem to already have a good conversation rhythm. I'm intrigued. Can't wait until he unleases his finisher: The Caddy Whack. Or The 3-Iron? Maybe The Sweet Cleats, or is that their tag-team name?

Hey, Rico had to do something similar when he came in as Billy and Chuck's stylist, and look how far it got him!

| #13 Posted on 21.9.05 1250.32 Reposted on: 21.9.12 1250.46 | They've had Nemeth in a program during the summer against Ken Doane which had a fair amount of spark to it. Nemeth has definitely been working on his promos (the one where he got on Doane for using the RKO as his finisher was pretty good: "It's not even YOUR MOVE!!"), and there's been a ton of NIC t-shirts given away at the OVW shows the past few weeks.
On the other hand, if I was asked who would be going up next, I wouldn't have picked Nemeth. Even Dean Visk or Chet the Jet would have gotten a bigger vote from me on that one. | BigFredMachine

| #16 Posted on 22.9.05 0833.19 Reposted on: 22.9.12 0843.26 | BTW, at the OVW houseshow last night (they had already filmed this week's television show the previous week), they had Nick in a tag-team match with Chris Cage against the Blonde Bombers. At the end of the match, where it looked as if Nemeth was going to run-in and stop the pin Tank had on Cage, he stopped short and watched with a smile on his face.
Then Aaron Stevens, who appears to be starting a feud with Chris Cage, came out with Shelly. Nemeth left the ring with Shelly, while Stevens taunted Cage.
So it appears they're turning Nemeth heel to coincide with his working for a heel in WWE. It was nicely done, however, as they had been building up Stevens/Cage for a few weeks and Shelly had been passed around as someone trying to tempt others into doing her bidding.
