Zeus 12/08/17 5:36:22 PM #477:	ParanoidObsessive posted... I was always of the mindset that characters like Cable and Gambit represent some of the worst aspects of where the comics were going at the time, and the fact that 90s kids latched onto them so hard and turned them into popular and enduring characters is one of the many, many, many reasons why I have such little respect for 90s kids. I like Gambit, but was never a Cable guy (or a Cable Man!). Honestly surprised to hear your rancor for Gambit, given that he has a neat design and power. (Cable I completely understand.) ParanoidObsessive posted... Matt filed a claim on the "Broken" gimmick, and because of how legal stuff works, Impact would have had to step up and file an objection and then be willing to fight him in open court over it. But Impact is basically hemorrhaging money, so they openly admitted they're not going to bother. Hooray for Anthem Sports finally backing down because of costs. It was a dick move anyway. I guess that they're probably hurting for money between paying Corgan to go away and Impact (or whatever they're calling it now) underperforming. Granted, by now a lot of Matt's shine has faded and he's unlikely to get the kind of push on WWE that he got on TNA but still, it makes me want to watch Raw again. (Plus it'll be nice to watch Strowman.) ParanoidObsessive posted... He's going to use "Woken" Matt Hardy in the WWE though, because apparently he worked out a deal with Vince where it will essentially be the same character, but the WWE can trademark and sell merch based on it, and if he ever leaves, he can still go back to being "Broken" in the indies or in other promotions. Kinda makes sense. Granted, it'd be nice if he could consistently use it wherever but, eh, WWE nowadays. --- (\/)(\/)\|-\| In Zeus We Trust: All Others Pay Cash <cite>Zeus posted [p:891843749] in All Geek's...
