[Centraal] Pro-Wrestling topic #24 Game And 619 On!

quote:

Keller: Do you think Russo and Ferrara could have been successful in WCW without Vince McMahon as part of that equation to keep their blob of ideas going in a certain direction?

Nash: I think no. I think the thing that made them successful is a lot of the times they go too far out, and Vince (McMahon) always had the capability to say (imitating Vince McMahon), "Ahh, that just doesn't make sense. That's bullsh--." It isn't like Vince hasn't drawn money. That's the one thing about Vince. He's been there before, so he knows. He can see when something's not going to draw money.

Keller: It probably makes a difference for Russo and Ferrara when they're writing to please Vince McMahon versus "I want to establish my own identity as a writer." When you're writing to please Vince, you're to a certain extent within a formula that has worked for years. When you become an artist writing for your own vision without McMahon to rein you in, you're going to make mistakes.

Nash: Absolutely. Absolutely.

Keller: Did you coin the term Vanilla Midgets?

Nash: (pause) I may have. (laughs)

Keller: When you used that term in reference to Chris Benoit, Dean Malenko, Eddie Guerrero, and other smaller wrestlers, what was the context of that? Any regrets?

Nash: It was one of those deals where I loved what they did, but at the same time, it's like watching a porno with a guy with a four inch c--k. It doesn't matter how he moves. I'm a big guy, I want to watch big guys wrestle. That's just me. I didn't appreciate what they did, but at the same time when I took over the book and Eric told me, "I'm paying these guys 500, 600 thousand dollars a year, you have to get them over," I said, "F---, because you did bad deals with people, don't expect me to get people over. F---, it's going to be hard. When a guy looks like your neighborhood gardener on the gas, it's tough. If a five-foot-seven guy walks through the airport, it's not gonna be... I'm very surprised Vince (McMahon) did that (signed and pushed them). Vince was never that guy. Vince was always, like, "When he walks through the airport, he's got to turn heads." He wanted that bigger than life guy.

Keller: Yet you respect Rey Mysterio and what he contributed to Nitro.

Nash: That was a different thing. To me, right now, if I was booking New York, Rey would be my champion.

Keller: And it might happen.

Nash: It should! Benoit is probably, to me, as good a worker, and so is Eddie, but they don't have that - if I'm sitting at home - me and Scott (Hall) used to always say to be over in this business, the girl's got to want to f--- you and the guy's got to wanna be ya'. Girls don't wanna f--- Benoit. Girls I don't think wanna f - -- Eddie. Girls wanna f--- Rey, guys want to be Rey. That's what gets over in this business. Guys want to f---in ' be Batista? F--- yeah. Do girls want to f--- Batista? Yeah. Do guys want to be Orton? Yeah. Do girls want to f--- Orton? Yeah. There's a real intangible in this business and that's it.

ECW was trouwens al voor de 2e week op rij een alleraardigste show om te zien. Wie is er nu allemaal bezig daar achter de schermen met het booken van matches en met trainingen?
