>>7167728Tony is such a mark for punk that he's doing the original 2005 summer of punk gimmick where the heel keeps acting like he's so above the indy fed that he's going to get to the big leagues while everybody else lags behind. the same thing that rvd was doing in ecw. the big differences that tony doesn't seem to grasp are:
>roh and ecw didn't really position themselves as competition to wwe. they were a healthy alternative at best>the crowds were so rabid and passionate about their promotions that they immediately booed the mention of the other side and chanted against itit's all so tiresome
