    Don't be posting spoilers in thread titles

    Is there something wrong with Regal as GM or are you pleased? I only hope this doesn't mean he won't wrestle as much

    I'd rather see him as WWE/World Champion (he deserves it) or at least Intercontinental Champion, but RAW GM will do. I hope he is as good as when he was commissioner.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,492 ✭✭✭EdK


    Months of holding out on a GM and they decide in 5 minutes

    Not a bad choice though Regals comedic acting skills are great, facial expressions reactions etc

    No other wrestler is believable it kind of suits him

    He has consistently good matches and he's easily one of the most entertaining guys on the mic

    I don't really give a **** about a GM, but yeah gotta love the faces and he is great on the mic so if anyone should do it, it should be him. Hopefully they can do something with it but I feel he is better off in the ring.

    Regal is great in the role. The rest of Raw looks bizzare.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 28,128 ✭✭✭✭Mossy Monk


    Fantastic, loved it when he was commissioner.


  • Registered Users Posts: 210 ✭✭AirDemon


    Regal was always such a good heel though, I think that having him in the top level fighting for a world title would have been perfect.

    The Edge/Regal feud in 2002 was one of the best I've seen from either of them and Regal I have to say I've never seen him do anything badly. He truly is the guy you love to hate.

    Is Tajiri still around as Regal's man slave?

    And what was the point in the draft if Regal just goes back to raw. Sure they could've done the same with Kennedy and put the belt on him. Sham

    Nope, but Jimmy Wang Yang isn't doing f*ck all of note ;)

    Can i ask you once and for all VR!, why after every single post do you put VR! at the end of it. I mean we already know who the **** you are. I dont know why but it irritates the hell out of me.
    R.Rated!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,176 ✭✭✭bennyx_o


    Bit OT, but when Orton and Carlito were talking to Regal in McMahons office, did Orton saw WWF Champion where it was cencored? Seems like he did.

    Meh, half of the sigs on boards and other forums annoy the hell out of me, but you don't hear me bitching about it. It's there, deal wth it! :P

    I think he did, it definitely seemed a bit random. It would only draw your attention to it more though

    I really enjoyed that Raw from the bits I watched, it was WWE doing what it does best. That dating game segment was awesome, I'm almost startin to like Santino and his dodgy accent now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,346 ✭✭✭Double C


    Orton definitely said WWF but they did a great edit job.

    I'm all for Regal as GM but what a strange move to get the Dating Game going first. I guess no matter how good the person on screen is, he's still only a messenger boy for the Nickelodeon writers.

    Yeah, the dating game segment was tremendous and they have something Santino as a sleazy guy with a dodgy Italian accent.

    There were other parts of the show that weren't great though.

    Vince McMahon taking his frustrations out on congress and the media live on Raw also isn't the brightest move.

    Yeah, I didn't see those bits but it sounds fairly stupid. It's along the lines of that steroid press release they did

    The ending was great too, I was waiting to see what Paul London would do. I'm ok with this Vince angle now because I don't think he'll be getting involved in the ring, I just hope he doesn't take up too much tv time


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,917 ✭✭✭RebelRockChick


    I think the GM gimmick suits Regal, he has the best character to do it....couldn't really have seen any others in that match becoming GM tbh!

    Just hopes he is still involved in matches, but i'm sure he will be entertaining as GM too!

    I just remembered the worst part of Raw last night, Kennedy's promo. For a man who is normally great on the mic, that was just horrible.
    A few people on other forums think Kennedy is going to be Vince's bastard child, which would be weird.

    Figure 4 have said that that was the plan before they stopped the limo angle. There was a feud between him and HHH rumoured before he moved to Raw, apparently that will be taking place if Kennedy is his son

    That promo was horrible alright. He's capable of so much better

    Anyone notice Regal could'nt say Umaga's name properly. He kept saying UMANGA

    Regal is going to be a grear GM - he's hilarious. I noticed him saying "Umanga", and I wouldn't be at all surprised if it was deliberate!!

    And Cel-ito. I hope he doesn't completely stop wrestling. I have to be honest though. His matches bore the sh1t out of me. He absolutely cracks me up on the mic though. Just so good. Raw was good. Well it would have been if that idiot in the other thread hadn't ruined it on me. I think Orton did say WWF and it was funny to see Vince make reference to Paul London smiling again. But how come "all contracted Raw stars" did not take part in the Battle Royal?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,346 ✭✭✭Double C


    Yeah, where was Snitsky in the Battle Royal? He'd make a great GM :p
