Johnny Ace you heartless bastard...ANIMAL WAS IN HIS FUCKING PRIME !!!!!

[Selborne Boome]

erm, whatever u mean, u just copied and pasted the headline on WWE.com, I didnt change anything of the quote.

[Big T]

I...wow...it just went over your head.

[Selborne Boome]

sorry, i have lost u halfway...if there's a mistake in that quote, blame wwe!

[Big T]

I just made a joke about Animal's release that's all...nothing to scratch your head about.

[Selborne Boome]

ahh ok, lol. im gonna miss Animal though

[Liverlips McGee]

Hahaha, Johnny Ace firing Animal is funny.

It's just as well though. His new gimmick with the gay biker attire wasn't exactly catching fire.

[CoTT]

You'd have to wonder why they re-hired him in the first place.

[Selborne Boome]

I think they re-hired him to advertise his DVD, not sure when it will be released, or if it IS already released

- so i heard

[Quarez]

They promoted the DVD, and then they had no use for him. The release was justified. He didn't fit in a storyline anywhere...

[Selborne Boome]

I dont think he was ever going to fit into any storyline as a singles wrestler, LOD with heidenrich & Christy hemme was ok...up to a point but what is where the cool'ness of Animal stops.

[CoTT]

It's pretty funny how Heidenreich, Christy and Animal were all released. That stable was the Hindenburg of the WWE.

It's just as well though. His new gimmick with the gay biker attire wasn't exactly catching fire.

The attire and the gimmick was the original gimmick for the Road Warriors so that whole thing was a throwback.

[Liverlips McGee]

Yes, I know that. But it looked like gay biker attire back then too.

[Big T]

That's what Hawk and Aninal thought too back then...so they started to wear tons of make-up and their haircuts were designed to show some kind of connection...they completed each other.

Now THAT doesn't sound gay at all my friend.

LOD was awesome, btw: did they ever wrestle against the APA ?

[Liverlips McGee]

Nope.

[Selborne Boome]

LOD vs APA would probably be cool

[Dr. Kenneth Noisewater]

I think they re-hired him to advertise his DVD,

That IS the only reason he got hired. If they coulda found someone decent besides HeidenSnitsky to tag with him, he mighta been worth keepin' around longer. But seeing as how WWE shits all over the tag team division, meh.

The Road Warriors, not LOD.

[Selborne Boome]

ahh ok.......
