So I found Fully Loaded 99 under my bed this morning and decided to pop it in to kill some time. I had taped the Sunday Night Heat before it as well, and saw the Val Venis - Joey Abs match. After the match Test beat up Rodney and Gas on the outside before getting in the ring to try and "Pillmanize Abs' ankle. The thing was that before he could do it, Rod and Gas hit the ring with chairs and Test had to bail.



What was unique about this is that if you think about it, the usual book of face/heel acts would have the POSSE running away while Test stood strong.



Now, we fast forward to 2002, and the nWo gets beat up three-on-one by Austin many MANY times. Now, I realize that Test isn't Austin, but compared to the posse, he is. Now if the WWF thought that it was important for the Posse of all people to maintain some heat, why not the new World order?

I guess that's the difference if you're good friends with the owner's son.

Plus, you gotta admit, the Mean Street Posse was cooler than the nWo EVER was. I even loved the concept: Three thugs straight out of the "rough" streets of Conneticut! One of the more imaginative ideas from WWF writers.

Well, I think we need to get used to the idea that the nWo are not going to be major players. At least they are not going to be part of THE angle, like they were in WCW. Maybe that was initially the plan (that they would be the big deal), but maybe not. But it is clear now that the WWF will not be revolving around the nWo, they will just be a part of one of many other angles.

Nor should the entire company revolve around them, but it would at least be nice to see them get some *monster* heel heat back, especially now that they are relegated soly to RAW. I think they had some of that this week with the destruction of Kane (after all, they did smack his head with a chair against concrete...pretty devestating when you think about it) and we just recently found out that Nash will be leaving, so who may be added in the future...?? I don't like Austin constantly knocking them down either, but I guess it is necessary if you are going to have Austin vs. Undertaker as Wrestlemania. Hopefully Austin will loose so he can continue to feud with the NWO and any new members that hopefully will be added (and HOPEFULLY the Scott Hall promos, survey and all, will come back!) But right now I think they are doing the best they can with the NWO, redeeming them a bit here and there since they got bitch slapped at Wrestlemania.

Not only was The Mean Street Posse a great group of flunkies, they also had killer theme music.

Just another thing that Vince was dying to kill, so he did.



Insert clever comment.

So, where are Rodney, Pete Gas and Joey Abs now? I heard about Rodney changing his name to "Rodrageous" a while back, but not a peep since.

Well of course they were tougher. Who else could wrestle in a sweatervest in the middle of summer? :)

Justin: Are you trying to tell me that (suspected) steroid use, repeated drug & alcohol abuse, and a line of work that demands that folks spend over 300 days a year on the road could possibly be bad for somebody's health?
