Honestly I think Bubba thinks he's the Undertaker. I haven't the slightest clue why he thinks he's a locker room leader. Yeah he's been around a long time, but c'mon.
I like Paul London but i don't understand his beef with Evan Bourne doing the Shooting Star Press? Jushin Liger invented the move so it's not like Bourne was stealing it from London. London has always professed to being an amazing high fyer who does most moves better then others. On the topic of the Shooting Star Press he should man up and admit Bourne does the best SSP. Liger himself recently described Bournes SSP as "Perfect"
@PureDynamiteKid he didn't really have a problem with evan doing it. he had a problem with management telling him not to use it because it was 'banned' but they let evan use it anyways. not fair to london. i love evan's ssp, though
@ssarmy23n I think it was because he was a Face a lot, like all jobbers and lowercard guys, and the best mic time you can get is as a heel. Ask Jericho, Bret Hart, any of those greats, they started out as faces and got buried until they went heel, Jerich with Nitro is Jericho and Bret with the Hart Foundation. I think that's why he wasn't able to talk like this, plus cruiserweights and high-flyers normally don't get interviews for some reason.
London is nothing but a spot monkey who could not pace a match to save his life. Bitter man who will say any lie just to stay in the limelight. Fuck him.
"Workrate is ALL all that matters!!1!!1!1"- Get a clue fuckwit workrate only matters to the vast MINORITY, the truth is Austin never drew a dime with his "workrate" (which was VERY high in WCW and ECW), he didn't become the biggest wrestler in history until he broke his neck, thus disallowing him to have the kind of matches that he used to. Connecting with the fans is what ACTUALLY matters and Kidman beats Londonn at that by a mile, that being said London wasn't given much of an opportunity.
@dregz2 Except nobody can connect with the fans because WWE doesn't allow the wrestlers to be themselves and find out what works with the crowd. Everything in the WWE now a days is way too contrived. Even Mr. Kennedy has talked about how everything needs to be done exactly how the writers say, to a T. Making it a lot harder to get over now than it used to be. Not even mentioning the fact that it's a PG show now so London and pretty much every new wrestler is at disadvantage.
@dregz2 "Vast minority"? Re-read that and try to figure out why that's silly. Otherwise, I agree with most of what you said. One thing, though...I think a big reason a lot of wrestlers aren't able to connect with the crowd is because they're fed lines by WWE's "creative" team and not allowed to stray from the script at all. Maybe if these guys were allowed to cut promos like back in the day, their true personalities would shine through and more of them would connect with the fans.
What the fuck do titles mean this days? Ability and workrate is what counts and Paul London beats Kidman hands down!! Kidman wouldnt be able to hang in ROH or PWG!
Kidman won wcw cruiser weight title 3 times won wcw tag team titles with rey mysterio and konnan in 1999 wcw crusierweight tag team titles in 2001. won ligh-weight title, crusierweight title and wwe tag team titles. was in pro wrestling since 1996-2001 in wcw 2001-2005 in wwe. that is 9 years london is bitter that is all.
Paul London is a bad ass shooter. Kidman did not do alot I love kidman as well but he was best in the "Ravens Flock" wwe screwed kidman in wcw he was used properly
@ramostarr well i willl disagree he won wcw cruiserweight title 4 times 2 wcw tag team titles won wcw tag team titles with rey last nitro. In wwe he won wwe light-heavyweight title in 2001 wwe cruiserweight title in 2002 and the wwe tag team titles in 2004. so he won 3 titles in wwe. Also he has more exiperence than london since 1996 he was wrestling.
Did you know that that Kidman is like a 8 time crusierweight champion,also like a 4 time tag team champion.Oh plus he had a great run in Wcw,He also did fued with Hulk Hogan,and maybe it was crap but wcw saw talent in kidman.Oh by the way did London ever wrestle a match with Bret Hart?instead he got pedigreed in 30 seconds..Atleast kidman was in Raven's flock and Filthy animals.and alot more.Plus I don't think london is with the wwe anymore,atleast Kidman serves as a trainer.
@nejim4r10 Okay don/'t tell me to Stfu,beacuse Kidman is more then a 4 time crusierweight champ.Kidman was crowned the crusierweight champiship 3 times in WCW,and 4 times in wwe...3+4=4?No =7.And Tag team champion was onw with rey mysterio,and Konna,and in wwe was with london...so 3!
Kidman is far more accomplished then london ever was.
@nejim4r10 I know comment is old. but kidman was wcw cruiserwieght champion in wcw 4 times won tag team title in 1999 with konnan and rey and won wcw cruiserweight tag team titles on last wcw monday nitro in 2001. won cruiserweight title in wwe and light weight title and wwe tag team title. so he won more titles than london in wcw and wwe.
@nejim4r10 My point is i doubt london was wrestling in 1996 when kidman started in wcw. kidman has more exiperence 1996-2004 8 years in pros wcw and wwe. london i doubt was wrestling in 1996 and kidman has job in wwe as fcw trainer. where is london?
@nejim4r10 that was more later in his career,and Kidman did it very well when he landed it.Very unique and he brought it to mainstream wrestling.Although Jushin Liger invented the move,kidman did more with the move.Everyone botches moves,im sure london wasn'/t exactly Jesus Christ.
