It also means they dont have to go far to get new source material as any thing they can think they can say :wink:
An example of scripting not working was the other year when Hulk Hogan was on the mic v's Vinny Mac and the Hulk got a line wrong.
It fell apart becuase The Hulkstertm had nowhere to go for help as it wasn't him writing/thinking it.


Yeah think I've seen that on the popular video sharing website. :lol:

Agree though - definitely better when it's the wrestlers thinking for themselves (same goes for matches too, rather then everything planned out). Bobby Heenan said in a shoot them he and Gorilla Monsoon never rehearsed anything for their shows in the early 90's, and they were absolutely brilliant. 8) :)

I'm not as sure about not having the matches planned out. Apparantly the Savage vs Steamboat from WM3 (i think it was wm3 anyway) was planned to the last detail and the spots rehersed and that's considered by many to be one of the greatest matches of all time.






When you're a Bradford fan there's always a light at the end of the tunnel.

Unfortunately it's usually an oncoming train

Oh yeah don't get me wrong it does work for a lot of people (Savage's series of bouts against DDP in WCW was also meticulously rehearsed and they were top notch), but many guys (inc Ted Dibiase - one of the all-time greats) said he prefered working on the fly and felt sometimes you could have better matches by doing so.

The problem with scripted matches/promos is if someone forgets something, it can screw things up completely if you don't have the ability to think quick.

O/T Funny clip on that popular video site of Angle trying to force open a cage door to attack someone, but as hard as he tries it just won't open, I think he ended up having to climb over. :lol: :lol:

Best one for me was Big Sid doing a promo and making a complete balls of it. After loving up telling everyone he was the baddest thing ever & was going to rule the world, he turned to Todd Petengill & said in his street voice "Sorry Todd, can we do that again"

Petengill's reply "Sorry Sid we're live accross the world at the WWF In your house !!!"

Best screw up by far was the "Shockmaster" incident on WCW. :lol: :lol:

I remember that - he was supposed to stop someone taking an F5 off Lesnar. It was hilarious how Lesnar was just stood there like an idiot for about 2 minutes waiting for Angle to 'stop' him.

Just watched Mysterio versus Morrison on Smackdown. I've not been into wrestling for years but that was absolutely sensational. The artistry and physical prowess and skill on show was amazing. The entertainment value on offer was superb.

Several of the moves, particularly by Morrison were absolutely mind boggling. Sensational.
