Does anyone else wonder why Dawn Marie is in the WWE right now? I mean sure it's just for TNA but what is the official reason she is there? The sexy legal intern who decides to get into lingerie matches is BS even for pro wrestling. So I had a thought. Remember when Dawn was showing of her chest and having Vince sign papers? What if she slipped one in there. Like having Simon Diamond get a contract. Then Dawn could go back to being a manager. They could even reform the Impact Players. Yeah they kind of sucked but the whole tag team "division" is a total joke. At least Storm and Credible are a team and not midcarders thrown together. Plus give Diamond the Euro belt. Simon is an O.K. wrestler but mainly he is a fuck-off. Then they could have him feud with a serious wrestler like Hardcore Holly. Let Simon keep the belt for a couple of months and have him keep the belt through Dawn's TNA and HTM tactics. Then when Diamond finaly loses the fans might be excited and then maybe respect the Euro belt.
I just have 13 words for you. How much wood would a woodchuch chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?
I hope she gets hooked back up with Lance Storm at some point. I always liked the way she'd add her litte bit to his promos in ECW.
Simon was a pretty decent wrestler as I recall, but I think he was held back by a stupid gimmick. I mean, you can say "I am not a comedy act" 'til you're blue in the face, but you're still coming to the ring with a f*cking musketeer in your entourage.
Oh, and count me in as one more vote for the return of the Impact Players. They might not be as big as most teams, but they work well together.
I would love to see the Impact Players back again. It would give a small spark to the tag team division which is in dire need of ideas and teams right now.

Let me get this straight. HHH survived a car being dropped from a crane, in fact no-selling death. We have a superhero running around, a former or current zombie, and the zombie's brother - a guy who can set fire with his mind. And you're looking for their logic in having Dawn Marie there?

No, they're looking for an excuse to talk about re-forming ECW parings and teams.
Again.
I'd agree with that, but in my columns, I've created new versions of the Hart Foundation (under a different name) and the Four Horsemen. Not to mention stealing classic angles. (A cookie for whoever knows where the Angle angle from my KOTR PPV came from.)
I think it's just human nature to retreat into familiar ideas rather than go forward with new ones.
You're all so WONDERFUL. Why did they ever have to remove you from the continuity? You'd have made for MARVELOUS stories. You WILL make marvelous stories. And the FIRST story of the new world will be a story of REVENGE! -- The Psycho Pirate, Animal Man 23, May 1990.
Yeah, but before they can do that, they'd have to create a WWE tag-team division -- y'know, with belts and teams fighting over them and everything.

I think Dawn Marie is there just to fill up a slot in the T&A (womens) division. I seem to remeber that she injured herself working a dark match a few months ago, so I guess that means she has some wresting skill (not as much as Jazz or Ivory, but skill none the less.) so that means she could have been an addition to the womens division. My only thing is that I do not see her as a wrestler in the women's division. She works much better as a valet and I would like to see her in that role. I mean she was one of the reasons I watched ECW on a weekly basis.
As for the reformation of the Impact Players; I'd be all for it. Justin Credible was a good heel and made me really hate him. The one thing the WWF(E) needs is another tag team since they broke up all of their good tag teams, except the Hardy's (but when was they last time they did a tag match) with the brand seperation. The only thing about this is that with Lance Storm seeming to start his own anti-USA group this will probably not happen.
Not to mention stealing classic angles. (A cookie for whoever knows where the Angle angle from my KOTR PPV came from.)
The angle (HHH attacks Angle before his title match against Rock) reminds me of the UWF angle, where Dick Murdoch attacked Ted DiBiase before DiBiase's NWA title match with Ric Flair. Brainbuster on the floor = Pedigree(s) on the floor. Am I right?
Dawn Marie being a valet is a good thing. Why *hasn't* that happened yet? Is it because of this injury she supposedly has? I can't figure out why that would stop her from being a valet. Can she not walk or something?
Wienerville is the WRONG place to try and say an angle doesn't have logic...trust me. Although the half-hearted attempt by Kurt Angle on Thursday to satisfy my utter disgust with how he could possibly remain bald after being shaved a month before was slightly satisfying, I still feel a twinge of...gimme a break!
But that being said, and resigned to the fact that some crap will just NOT MAKE SENSE even though it would be easy to make it make sense...is Dawn Marie being thrust into the world of lingerie matches even though she is the EMPLOYEE OF A LAW FIRM HIRED BY VINCE MCMAHON any less ridiculous than Sable being Hunter Hearst Helmsley's valet for a period of months, but then to accomodate the debut of Marc Mero have her become his wife? What the heck was she doing Helmsley more than once? Or Barbara Bush being the only EMT who seemed to be employed by every city that just happened to be hosting a WWF event and also being thrust into an assortment of (insert substance) matches?
What will hopefully make Dawn Marie unique is a personality...one not SO ditzy that I want to shoot her everytime I see her like I wanted to in ECW, but something akin to Sunny--a savvy manager who can play the fool, the damsel in distress, but also the cunning fox...yooowwwww.
I want to see a reunion of the Impact Players as well...as long as Lance Storm teams with anyone not named Justin Credible.
You know, I'd actually rather see the musketeer in WWE than Simon Diamond. I'd also rather see the Rocketeer from the bad Disney movie. Or pretty much anyone other than Simon Diamond. I mourn the passing of ECW as much as anyone, but sometimes they did just put out guys who weren't fun to watch...Simon was one of them. Just let him fade into obscurity.
Anyone remember the joy of seeing him bash the Undertaker's motorcycle with his sledgemhammer and doing no damage and being all like, "Mjolnir will not break thine cycle? I say thee NAY!" and dumping it off the stage. - Enojado Viento says the funniest thing I've ever read on Wienerville.

Well, when you put it that way.

Uh, just being anal here, but Sable was only HHH's valet once. HHH had a different woman accompany him down to the ring every week.

See where I'm going here? Come on guys, really? The Impact Players, 95% of the fanbase probably doesn't know who they are. I do and I STILL don't want to see Credible ruining Lance Storm on a weekly basis.
As for Dawn Marie, she's there for looks, which sucks for me, cause I think she's hideous.

Not true...Sable was Helmsley's escort several times leading up to Wrestlemania when Marc Mero made his debut. They weren't continuous, but she did appear on Monday Night Raw or whatever WWF syndicated show was airing at that time, and in fact, other than Playmate Shae Marks, was the only I recall to be given a name. The rest of the time they were something like "Helmsley's lovely companion" or whatever.
However, even if Sable had only done it once, that one time would have been at Wrestlemania, and my point about going from Helmsley's escort to Mero's wife still remains.
I've always thought he needed a marketable finisher. The Spear is interesting for seeing wrestlers buckle when hit, but that's about it. The Edge-o-cution doesn't seem to get that "finisher" response.
