nah, eddie's popularity is SUPER overhyped because he died. He was a fantastic worker with a great level of charisma, but lets not pretend he was austin or the rock. the dude had a funny gimmick with the lie cheat and steal bit, but his death made him more popular than his life would ever had made him

@@TheGhostofMrArthurs tf you talking about. How bout go back and watch his presence while he was here. Before we knew he would be gone. I’m pretty sure he had every bit of that respect being one of the few that defined SmackDown. Truly gave it an identity in a different era. He had full control of the crowd in his palms. Dude could go from heel to face 5 times in the week and he would make it believable. Even in the heel times, you still loved the dude because he was wrestling.

Any “star” is gonna be worth more after they pass and that’s the logic. That’s where I’m trying to comprehend the boozes point because there is none.

You can tell Roman and The Rock are related. The catchphrase engages fans and is a nod to whatever city they are in. They are an amazing presence whether face or heel.

@alvinnarciso6130 Жыл бұрын

They aren’t actually related. Roman and the Rocks grandfathers were “blood brothers” due to being very close. The rocks grandfather was accepted into the anoa’i tribe due to loyalty. Just to make it simple they refer to themselves as cousins. Also fun fact the Usos and Reigns aren’t cousins. Roman is actually their uncle.

@Alvin Narciso I am Hawaiian I actually understand blood brothers I thought the rocks father was either blood related or married in.
