Jeff Hardy's Status, Dixie Carter, Copying Finishers
Written by Richard Gray on Nov 10, 2009 - 11:20:18 AM
What is Jeff Hardy's status now?
Nothing has changed as he is due back in court on December 2nd to see if he will stand trial on the charges brought against him. Hardy is basically living in seclusion, not speaking to anyone and awaiting his day in court. That's a smart decision as I felt he really messed up by posting on Twitter and making public comments shortly after his arrest.
Who is Dixie Carter? Where did she come from and what kind of wrestling background does she have?
Dixie Carter's parents own Panda Energy, who is the parent company of TNA. She was appointed president of TNA in 2003. To the best of my knowledge this is the first stint she has had working in the wrestling business.
Why does Michelle McCool get so much heat for copying AJ Styles' finisher? There are numerous examples of wrestlers adopting other worker's finishers.
There are several examples of workers using another wrestler's finisher. Randy Orton's RKO is similar to the Diamond Cutter used by DDP and Booker T's Book End is a variation of the Rock Bottom by The Rock. I think the difference is there weren't a lot of people high up on McCool to begin with, as many feel she only has her spot in the company because of her personal relationship with The Undertaker. From everything I've heard McCool tends to rub people the wrong way by acting like she knows more about the business than anyone else. But I could live with her using the Styles Clash, but the hooded sweatshirt as well? Come on now.
I thought WCW always did a good job of hyping their main events by using Michael Buffer as the ring announcer. Did you enjoyed that aspect of WCW and do you think that is something WWE could include in their product, particularly at the big four PPVs and special occasions?
I enjoyed how WCW would bring Michael Buffer in to hype the main events up as a very big deal. Not only did it get the live audience real hot but it came across well on TV. I do not see WWE doing it because it is not cost effective. A lot of money was wasted in WCW and the amount they paid Buffer was ridiculous. Vince McMahon is going to use the ring announcers that already work for the company.
