Wasn't a Vince thing.. That was a Bruce thing he said it was his idea..

@@tj2nasty4ya83 You may be correct, but Vince signs off on everything. They could have made a lot of money with Page, had they had they had the will to look past their shortsightedness.

That's the most money this guy has ever made now he gropes women for a living

Because Vince is completely overated. He is a wrestling genius they say but wrestling has never been more unpopular than it is now. And because he has had no real competition since 1998 he is thrust upon this pedestal of greatness by some. Of course he has been number 1 for over two decades look at the competition. TNA and AEW were and are run by marks with rich parents.

Ever heard of the "Red Rooster"?

he didn't get it over lol

@@ianraguse6455 🤣💯

@@ianraguse6455 He kinda did. If not, he wouldn’t have a little moment in WM28.

Yes and he was rewarded handsomely with a solid mid card run, Booked as someone legit and oh oh he was pushed as a top star too 😂

@nemo pouncey Naomi* Cameron never needed to debut anywhere

i thought road dogg helped him out too.

Why not Cameron and only Naomi ​@@matthewrock4725

Oh snap...He was talking about Dusty Rhodes? I just made a ignorant comment then. I didn't know Tyrus went that far back. I didn't know but I know Dusty Rhodes 💯.

Dusty Rhodes was ass like Cody

It's a less grim environment

@@DivineEnclave22 When I was a kid I was so unimpressed with that lump of chicken fat lookin dude. I guess he was a big deal back stage, but he was totally unappealing and uninteresting. Dusty just didn't seem like a star next to any of the other guys. But Cody seems interesting. He seems like a good star that resonates with people.

@@DivineEnclave22dumb comment

You knew Vince would have made them a team

Lmao "respectable" 😂

@@christo9120compared to Vince vision of having "funky hoes" and "brody bitches" Think the group made it much more respectful than Vince's intended view of the girls. Made it more manager/cheerlead support even gave the duo time to creditable treats for the woman titles .

Vince didn't come up with the gimmick though. Tyrus could've done a sort of PG thuganomics gimmick where he comes out and clowns wrestlers while occasionally doing some kind of dance maybe similar to the Godfather as well and it probably would've got over more.

@@Lee-km7qq idk about more. Funkasorus was pretty over but that’s also a decent optionn

@@Lee-km7qq here we go...another vince asslicker No one said he came up with it piece by piece but he damn sure approved it and gave it the go

@@Lee-km7qq that requires a lot of talking and they use scripts for mid card wrestlers

He went from going to be a massive heel to that shit gimmick. I enjoy his current Nwa character.

LOL, that's nice. At least he has a new job on TV now.

Vince always make memorable characters.

@Tie Shoe Yes, no one remembers him what he did after getting his release. He never shined with a monster heel gimmick. Vince literally gave him a character hich is memorable.

@@mansinghsoren5321 And no one remembers him as G-rilla in another wrestling 🤼‍♀️ show! I first knew him as that.

It’s crazy my mom liked his too. Clearly Vince does not know how to cater to any demographic above the age of 10 because he’s mentally still a child himself

Dusty's point was to take Vince Lemons and make Lemonade. Dusty did it and wanted and it worked.

@David Chavez who? Tyrus?

Clearly Clay just wanted money and never had those Piper balls to stand up to a boss.

I’ll down to get humiliated like that and make money

@@357-swagnumultramagax9 You want some money or main event money? This guy had the genetics and look to someday make major money but blew it..

I think if he debuted as the funkasaurus in today's wwe he would get pushed to the moon

vince or wwe all ways stops ther stars momentum to soon dumb shit

Somebody call my momma

Dancing gimmick is the kiss of death in wrestling

That’s hilarious cause the second I saw him I never watched another episode lmfao the ultimate wrestling is for toddlers now moment that’ll I’ll never forget

The gimmick when downhill when big show turned heel back in may 2012 and when he formed a tag team with tensai.

But AEW firmly has their finger on the pulse on what the fans want in 2022 with Luchasaurus right? lol

@@elbob17 lmao… why are you still watching wrestling thats yo first mistake shit died after 2017

@@chrisbdk4008 It's sucked for a lot longer than that. I can't even remember what was going on in 2017 but I'm sure it wasn't good then either. I still like to pop and edible and watch the PPVs. Every now and then they surprise you.

@@elbob17 i been stopped watching but u know how the wwe is legends come back sometimes and my childhood is my childhood so id occasionally pop back in to it but after 2016 2017 i stopped completely again

well for all people wanna say vince doesnt want to make people seem more true to themselves this is vince vetoing a decision to make brodus work. sometimes you need the older head to be able to tell you what will work and what wont and for someone that got into wwe in 2013 as a kid tons of funk was one of the coolest gimmicks to me and i couldnt tell that he wasnt like that irl cuz it looked so much fun. and ive seen his work as tyrus in tna. its aite ig

Sometimes you gotta make the best out of a bad situation, and that was a stepping stone to make Naomi the megastar she is today. It got her on TV, it got her noticed and now she’s a multi time champion As for Brodus and Ariane, it also got them on TV and made them very popular with a younger audience and the kids. Would’ve liked to see how he fared compared to the likes of Mark Henry or Big Show in that time as they were winning gold quite a bit and challenging for titles

A true star can make ANYTHING work.

Fuck him fire him if he can't do the job we hired him for.

@@Cruzr1872 Naomi is NOT a Megastar

I was young but I loved funkasaurus. Me and my sister were dancing with him every time he came out

how? it didn't draw money.

@@ianraguse6455 how do you know this though?

@@ianraguse6455 i personally hated it but I can imagine if you were 6 years old you were begging for his t shirt

Literally from Vince changing up because he heard Clay tell jokes to Dusty and Taker’s weird mindfuck advice

or an actual wrestling clip

Lol where’s this video

@@King_Shuni type in “Brodus clay debut”, it’s against Curt Hawkins, around the 3:00 mark and the announcers lose it lol

Lmaooo😂🤣🤣

the talking in the ring was my favorite part of the gimmick. "should i get him?!?"

@@100shaunnor I just saw it 😂😂😂😂 so funny 😂😂😂

we still would've gotten Naomi just probably not the way we did as quickly as we did cause remember she was on that nxt season and was a fan favorite then. I think they probably would've had Naomi be on the reinvented nxt at that time like where they had summer, page, Emma and them. we definitely would've had greater matches for Naomi cause Naomi is very good. also I think it would've helped Cameron out to get more better in the ring as well if they sent her to nxt first.

Long Tong-Sun, Naomi is not amazing. She is a tag along with the real star Sasha. Naomi is a nitwit, she proposed the idea of her being part of "The Bloodline." Just think about that for a second, "The Bloodline" united by blood (not marriage) and she proposed this to everyone. lol, she's a fool!

@@81rbutler you are loud, wrong, a not smart at all. no one in there right mind can watch Naomi and say she's not amazing. back in the diva era she was literally one of the only divas doing innovative moves and trying to show that the women can do risky moves and carry a good match. Naomi can go with the best of them. Naomi is literally one of the only women to trend every few months every year on a consistent basis. she's a fan favorite for a reason. you sound like a hater. Naomi is star just as much as Sasha. wwe just won't give Naomi a good solid storyline and every time they do, they drop it like they do all of the good storylines. and soo what if she propose being apart of the bloodline? she's married to the family and been apart of the family for years. they not gonna add Tamina, nia is gone, so the only female option to add is Naomi if they want to add a female. it's a reason why her theme says "I'm amazing" cause well..look at the in work material. I will admit, they made her limit her move set's because most of the girls can't keep up with her. if Naomi isn't amazing then foxy,nattie, Sasha, Bayley, Paige, auska, ember, and a few more women that was in the company aren't amazing, you sound wild dumb

@@dashrysea Are you able to construct a sentence? For calling someone dumb you sure should look at capitalizing the beginning of sentences and not rambling. She's not blood dude, she's married. That, in itself, proves my point. She sucks in the ring. She's a pretty, athletic, black female, yes, and that's where it stops. She has not grown her skills in years and is an airhead. Get over your boy crush already.

@@81rbutler if you are married to someone you are considered family so it could work, yea she's not blood blood but she's been in the family for about a decade now. and she does not suck in the ring you sound like a hater. she knows how to sell and be fluent in the ring. some of the top girls always botching and etc.

❤️

Agreed.

Cant wait until his son finally becomes a credible WORLD Champ.

@@EXPLISITemcee He’s the champ! Do you feel him sir?

He had potential to be a great monster heel after turning.

Im pretty sure he did turn heel but they kept pairing him with Tensai

I thought him turning on Sweet T was his heel turn? Unfortunately, I believe he got released not too long after that.

Vince: A big guy being serious... ABSURD

You should check out NWA Powerrrr, he's their TV champ, plays the heel really well, and has recently being doing commentary. He's great on commentary.

@@kermita12 And sexually harrasses women

At the moment some of the Goofy stuff Sucks. But when looking back, it's actually entertaining and fun.

It actually was a çool gimmick. I agree The Funkasaurus should've had a title in his hands.

He would have done much better as the Juggernaut gimmick they originally had for him

Very underrated performer.

It never got over

@@kalebrunton527 Hm, you don’t think so?

Some liked it...but pro wrestling fans did not.

I’m 19 now and was a kid when he was around ngl me and other kids loved it

@@EXPLISITemceehardcore wrestling fans didn't like it. Credit where credit is due, he was the most sold merchandise,toy and over act as it was a throw back to goofy era of pro wrestling . He wasn't the worst in the ring , had charisma with the one liners and crowd interaction. just got stale over time

Oh my. As a kid? Oh lord

🥵

wasnt that long ago damn...

The way he tells the story gives 0 indication to what you have said. You’ve created a whole thesis out of nothing. According to Brodus Clay, Vince saw he was funny so wanted to give him a funny gimmick (more true to his real life self). In no way does this seem like a punishment. It may not exactly have been what the guy wanted but he got it over and it worked. You rambling about jealousy conspiracy theories from this just makes me wonder whether you need to spend less time reading wrestling rumours and such online

You do understand shortly after this Vince rebranded FCW and took it away from Dusty and gave HHHH full reign of NXT, RIGHT?

@A. Carey ran off millions of viewers from what? NXT has never had a million viewers even in its glory days. If the main roster was losing viewers then that’s the result of bad booking/creative from the guys in charge of that.

specifically how?

You mean tensei?

The same with me, I was PISSED lol I remember calling a friend of mine as soon as I saw him on the titantron up till this day I speak to him about it 😅

Same that was towards the end of when I stopped watching WWE for a while. It made zero sense how they do all the vignettes and then still have THAT gimmick be what comes out. Made ZERO sense.

I was like wtf! Lol 🤣

decent aka good jobber at best

I only say Funk is on a roll when i watch Terry matches...pro wrestling stuff...

Over? That gimmick crashed like Kobe’s helicopter

@@Captain_AAhab dude

He’s a dumbass. That’s why he’s on Fox News with that host gutter licker.

this gimmick had promise? lol....

Tell me you’re a fan of current WWE without telling me you’re a fan of current WWE lmao

it contributed to the comedy kids show that wwe is today. it was NEVER over. Only thing good about it was naomi fine ass

@@Captain_AAhab Well dude wasnt wrestling back in the day so why would we think about the old wwe/wwf? And even back then they had some stupid ass ginmicks. Especially in the 80s my gawd 💀💀💀

@@DeathlyBioShock lol wether Funkasaurus happened or not WWE would always go into the comedy kids show route they have done. Look at the people behind the creative for christ sake You're second point is correct tho..Naomi is THICCC

Checkout NWA wrestling on KZfaq. He's also great on commentary, very knowledgeable and puts over even the babyfaces.

@@kermita12 Thanks I will.

Thank you

And now he's an ass on Fox news.

He was so much better in Impact when he was EC3’s bodyguard then turned to Big Money Matt Hardy’s.

@@napalmwedding yup

Because these kids are not true wrestling fans just a bunch of marks

The Cat had a Dance Off with James Brown in WCW; I think that it was on a Pay-Per-View.

Yeah can someone explain why they use the same song?

I used to watch Red Eye with Greg, and I actually watched new wrestling for a short time and caught him doing the Funkasaurus gimmick, it’s still surreal seeing them together 😂

It was over afterwards anyway.

if your mission is to get to the next segment, sure.

Truth is ...it embarrasses WWE more than the wresters....we all know who is in charge and we all understand who is at fault when things like they especially often do with WWE get lame and oftenly unbearable to watch
