Well, let's ask ourselves some tough questions:

Q: Who bettah than Kanyon?
A: No one.

Yes, I think this one's a keeper.

Q: What's memorable about Mike Awesome, IMHO?
A: Mullet, ECW championship fiasco, mullet, okay in the ring, mullet, likes the chubby girls, mullet.

Nope. Don't care.

I think you're wrong about Kanyon... a lot of moves that I see guys like Edge doing- Kanyon was doing them in WCW after he dropped the Mortis gimmick. I thought he got caught up in a bad angle (read- INVASION) and then went down with an injury before he could really shine.

They are tagging together right now. I'm a big Knayon nut. Dude is truly the innovator of offense. I was big on Mike Awesome when he was in ECW. His matches with Masato Tanaka were incredible.

anything to get kanyon on my tv that doesn't involve him losing in mass amounts and/or playing bitch to someone is a very good thing. shit, if they don't want him to go big time, they could just throw him in a feud against d-lo on heat or something. that would put on some good matches, right? or am i the only one who watches heat anymore?

I check Heat, too...
I think Kanyon was getting pushed until he got hurt. He was DDP's sidekick for a little while for the Taker/ Stalker fued... then he had his "Alliance MVP" gimmick. I don't think anyone can be fairly judged by their performance in that horrible storyline!
I'd like to see him whup on Edge.... "It's the Flatliner, not the Downward Spiral- you ninny!"

Kanyon and Awesome sound like a pretty good tag team. Kanyon can do the mic work for the team. Who knows where they'll end up though.

Probably on RAW, where the tag titles aren't. This is what I call "WWF Booking Logic".

I'd prefer Kanyon to be an IC, Euro level guy, but I'll take anything that gets this guy on my screen. I'm getting my best of Kanyon tapes out now to relive the best of Champagne Chris Kanyon, and see him throw down the BANG!

I think this guy is gold on the mic, and great in the ring. Also, I thought Kanyon was one of the few standouts of the ALLIANCE, as he's one of the few not named Austin, Booker or Angle, that really stood out in my mind in that group.

Awesome, I'm kinda' in between on. While I WANT to like the guy, he just can't deliver the goods in the ring like he could in ECW/WCW. Plus he's too damn stiff. So, give him Hardcore matches with Bradshaw and throw anyone else at him I hate, but I don't want to see him wrestle anyone I like!



An open letter to Andrew Gilkison from me: Sir, I am no longer pleased with your product and thus will not read it. I am the consumer and your product is not living up to my expectations. I could open up an Andrew Gilkison message board and cry about it, but that's a waste of my time. In the meantime, I would suggest you work on improving your product. Thank you.

Watching RAW and Smackdown doesn't cost anymore than your posts do. And so, like a good consumer, I'm tuning you out.

I don't know. If I had to venture a guess, I'd say M.I. Smooth...

My WCW memories are fuzzy at best, but I do believe Kanyon's manager during that gimmick was the the guy who used to be Clarence Mason. I forget his WCW name, but I'm pretty sure that's who you're thinking of. Either that, or I'm just on crack.

P.S. Are the /slashwrestling archives still up? I had found the NBT promo from August 2000 and wanted to use part of the transcript as my signiture, but I never saved it, and now CRZ has left us.

Then you just don't know Mike Awesome. The big man can fly through the fucking air, basically Razors Edge people from the top rope, and keep up with Cruiserweights. He may be best suited for ECW of Japan sadly. Mike Awesome is an animal though, hopefully that animal still lives on even though the mullet no longer does.

Yes, but Mike Awesome hurts people.

And I don't need that.

Awesome is indeed sloppy as hell, and prone to injuring himself and others. His best matches were in FMW against Hayabusa, because Ezaki could reign him in, make him look good, and was an incredibly resilient bumper.

Re: CCK
This was the one Kanyon gimmick I couldn't stand. Loved Mortis, Loved Psycho Raven Stalker Kanyon, and lovedlovedLOVED Positively Kanyon. I was reminiscing with some friends about that at an indy show last weekend.

The lawyer's name was J. Biggs (portrayed by WWF's Clarence Mason)

Really? I consider CCK the exact same as Positively Kanyon gimmick, because he always referred to himself as that.

That and the fact that the storyline based around the fact that he went to Hollywood to tape the WCW movie and fell in love with Champagne. That explanation was enough for me. Plus, the girls he came out with looked good. Also, anyone else watch really close and see Kanyon bumping for Jimmy King in that movie?

The manager wasn't M.I. Smooth. He was the annoying Johnny Cochrane wannabe. M.I. Smooth RULED!

Why doesn't Kanyon just come back with his Alliance MVP shirt, thinking that the Invasion is still on? That would be entertaining. "WWE? Ha, they had to change their name! We've got them on the run!"

What feuds are they promoting that were stale in 2005? And why spend time hyping Evander Holyfield any more than is necessary? It sounds like it was a last-minute kinda deal anyhow.
