Mark Out Mania 12 with my review of this is out. I did a live read so do not expect thought out analysis, instead enjoy knee jerk reactions as i just react to my first read and impression. Yay! |

I think we need an epic joint pod cast of Picky and Dro -- TOGETHER! |

Just a note... Dro and at least one other person (Picky? Tracy?) mentioned in reference to the Joe Hardy RP that they didn't like the FBI agents as tag champs bit. If I'm not mistaken (And someone like Jeremy or Jay Steele might remember better), there was an actual team in UEW at the time called the FBI who really did win the UEW Ultimate Tag Team championships. And their gimmick was that they were former FBI agents... so unless I'm wrong this isn't a complete fabrication and is historically accurate. Also, as for Manson - Dro expressed concerns that Manson is losing interest in Frank and Tracy/Picky kind of mentioned the same thing as well - this is not the case, if it didn't come off right in the flash that's my fault - Manson still intends to give Frank what's coming to him - when he said "Enough about Uncle Frank" maybe I should have written "Enough about Frank, for now..." Manson hasn't forgotten about Frank, but he has other irons in the fire as well. If I made it seem like he's writing everything else off aside from the Rumble, that's on me. |

It was me. I was the one who hated the 'former/undercover FBI agents' as tag champs thing. I don't really care if it was 'accurate' or not... it was more me commenting on the gimmick in general. I'm not the most original motherfucker in EW, so maybe I'm not the leading expert in great angles and gimmicks, but getting so far from reality... yuck. |

Yep ... Most of the Joe Hardy RP revolved around stuff that actually could have happened in the UEW back at the time. I quite enjoyed it! |

I think JC would have not liked UEW in general. We did get pretty far from reality. Sometimes this was good and entertaining, sometimes it was not. Having only seen a couple of FBI RPs (they were gone before I joined), all I remember is that they were based on the Men In Black movies, and were entertaining. |

Pretty much. The American Dreams had a few matches with them in the early UEW days. They were fun to work with. UEW back then had a lot of really good underrated tag teams. |

I third this. I mean, it's not like a F-16 and a blimp just appear out of thin air for wrestler's personal usage. You had to expect that the FBI was involved in that. They're probably to blame for the 72 mysterious disappearances of UEW fed heads there at the end as well. I don't remember a ton from the FBI, as I got into UEW just after a wave of teams that included them left... but that came across to me as more of an inside joke for the UEW faithful than a serious attempt to connect the FBI and wrestling. Not at all unlike the inside jokes that Picky and others throw into their work for us WWOers, or the inside IPW comments from Dawson and Wright when they first appeared. Yeah, the FBI thing is a bit more extravagant and easily misunderstood to non-fans of the promotion than a "Free Danny Janssen" sign or a Fatty Boyz Meat Snax reference, but in my mind its the same basic concept. |
