Nothing there that comes as too much of a surprise, although looking at that list they might as well just retire the tag team titles now.

 

[Scott Gourley's Lovechild]

I am a bit suprised by Luke Gallows, since he was in a big storyline up until recently as a member of the SES. The others not so much.

 

[Bulldog Force]

They let Tiffany go? Wasn't she the ex ECW GM? Oh well, even more less eye candy for us then. Caylen Croft... pretty useless, didn't do much. Shad going was meaningless, now JTG better watch his back, because he'll almost certainly be next. Luke Gallows, well the SES broke up, meaning that he was sure to follow Serena. Looks like Joey Mercury could be in the next lot.

 

[Marshall_magic]

no surprises there. Have any of them been on TV in the last month?

 

[Scott Gourley's Lovechild]

Gallows was getting a face push on Superstars, and the Dudebusters + Vance Archer were regulars there too.

They let Tiffany go? Wasn't she the ex ECW GM? Oh well, even more less eye candy for us then.

She chucked a spaz at a hotel right before SummerSlam (I think it was SummerSlam), belting her husband Drew MacIntyre around a bit. WWE didn't look too well on that

 

[The Joker]

I preferred Gallows as the genius Festus

I thought Vance Archer could have been utilised better

 

[Marshall_magic]

I could never take Vance Archer seriously, he has a friggen tramp stamp.

 

[Bulldog Force]

I preferred Gallows as the genius Festus

I thought Vance Archer could have been utilised better

I know ay. The whole belling-ringing thing was hilarious :lol: Was his debut in the 2008 Royal Rumble and Jesse brought him to the ring covered in a blanket or something? And then at Wrestlemania that same year, Snopp Dogg rang the bell backstage and Festus went crazy and started chasing Santino around :lol:, and, in the moments leading up to it, this...

 

[Scott Gourley's Lovechild]

No way was Jesse + Festus entertaining. The only time I enjoyed their gimmick was when Miz + Morrison ripped on them after a match on SmackDown. Even The Hearthrobs were more entertaining than those two!

 

[Big Pete]

Shame about Gallows, I thought he moved pretty decently for a big guy and it just shows how much the E dropped the ball on the whole SES story.

The rest, eh there time had come. In the case of Jillian, her time had come A LONG time ago.

 

[Scott Gourley's Lovechild]

I thought Jillian Hall stopped her in ring career a few months ago so she could become the head trainer for women in FCW. Anyone know if that ever happened?

 

[IanG]

Isn't it enough that they have to stay in hotels that make the Formule 1 look like 5 star accommodation

 

[pennywisealfie]

They underused Jillian Hall so much. She had so much heat and was f**king hilarious doing it. The greatest diva of all time and she got no credit at all. shame.

 

[Big Pete]

SGL that's a good point you raise. Maybe this was her on-air contract and she'll soon be on her head trainer contract? It wouldn't be the first time a similar announcement has been made.

 

[Agent Mulder]

They underused Jillian Hall so much. She had so much heat and was f**king hilarious doing it. The greatest diva of all time and she got no credit at all. shame.

Very True, Even though im a Melina fan i did feel sorry for Jillian when Melina pinned her for her Divas title that she held for like 20 seconds.

 

[Scott Gourley's Lovechild]

They underused Jillian Hall so much. She had so much heat and was f**king hilarious doing it. The greatest diva of all time and she got no credit at all. shame.

Probably because she never got implants like most of the Diva's

 

[Big Pete]

She scrubbed up pretty well given what she looked like before entering the biz.

Wouldn't be the first diva who didn't get her due. Molly Holly, Jazz, Victoria and I'd even say Chyna doesn't get the credit she deserves.

Although in her case I think it's her own fault, the E really can't afford to put somebody with so many famous demons on a pedastal.

 

[Eelementary]

Luke Gallows = Festus = Fake Kane. You guys remember that?

Anyway, IMO, Gallows was cool. Good in-ring skills and not bad on the stick.

What ever happened to Mike Knox? I liked that guy.

 

[Eelementary]

Probably because she never got implants like most of the Diva's

...Really?

 

[Big Pete]

Was released earlier this year.

Definite shame, thought he had a great look and could've really brought something to the Smackdown roster with the right feud.
