Which legend will Heath "The One Man Job" Slater job to next?
 

Good to see Slater was used to put over another legend. What or who is next for him? I really do hope whoever they bring back next week at least gets booked for a match.

Legends - 3
Slater - 1

Bushwhacker Luke

Even in the role of jobbing to legends, I can't like Slater. He's a fine wrestler, he's got a terrible look and he's cringe-worthy on the mic. Those traits don't lend themselves to a gimmick that is based on verbal arguments with legends leading to squash matches or no match at all. They lend themselves to putting on good matches on Superstars against the rest of the curtain jerkers and maybe getting a 5 minute opportunity to job every once in a while on one of the major shows.

Pretty much. After the hoopla of the 1000th episode is over, poor Heath Slater will be back on Superstars if he's lucky.

The reason he "gets" to job is because he is just so god damn unlikable. Putting a trusty heel like Ziggler or even a reliable face like Ryder would get a lackluster reaction on live TV. Someone who everyone just hates like Slater is a guaranteed way to get a positive reaction for the returning guy and gives the One Man Band a little bit of coating for his career.

yeah he is getting real heel heat, i am liking him, but i think he will last past the 1000 ep. he is there new chavo or brawler, he will be the heel jober that faces will beat up.

He needs to further the one man band character, like how the west texas rednecks and 3 count furthered their characters. Coming to the ring in standard wrestling gear singing will only get him so far

I guess somebody has to be the Chavo. Once this legends routine is finished they can just stick him in an eagle costume and push Jack Swagger.

hopefully that singing was a one time thing, allthough they could bring back jimmy hart and that would be a killer stable.

Yup decent wrestler, needs serious mic work... I cringe as well... Nice jobbing to the Legends tho...

Slater brings a Miz level of aggravation when he's on T.V, and that a good quality that many heels don't have. He's very dislike able.

His song was mint though.

Miz was believable as a douche. Slater comes off as a terrible actor trying too hard to be dislikable while looking like Wendy.

X-Pac heat.

Slater and Ryder should team up. Tell me it wouldn't be cool to have a teamed called Zack and Slater.

With Kelly Kelly as their manager...

I'm glad they didn't have him job to Cyndi Lauper in an actual match! Schneezus Heist, Dupertar! Bury your Slaters! :nono:

It's pretty much what Chris Jericho's and later the Miz's feuds with the guest hosts were. Except they were good at it.

I actually don't mind him..........

I love Heath Slater. I don't think he's the best performer ever, and he still seems somewhat awkward on the microphone, but in the ring he is good, and when it comes to making people look good, he is mint. Slater is being given the role to make these oldies look good, and it's got to be an honour for him to get in the ring with all these legends and celebrities and have a good time.

That idea of Zack Ryder & Heath Slater forming a tag team with Kelly Kelly as their manager is absolutely amazing, though. Bring in Mr. Belding to show up now and then for segments with them. It would be absolutely tremendous and be a great way to segue Slater from irritating heel into likeable awkward babyface. Then comes the turn on Ryder, who Slater defeats en route to getting people to hate him all over again. The cycle continues.

If Heath Slater is going to do this every week, have him come out wearing a shirt.

I couldn't get my eyes off his boobage last Monday.

Slater is so awkward and weird on the mic, that he's awesome

Seconded.

I loved a little eye roll Slater did at one point when Roddy Piper was talking.

Exactly. Heath is supposed to do two things

1 - Get the fans to hate him
2 - Make others look good/put people over

I think he's doing a pretty damned good job of both.

This is spot on. Thanks for not making me type it all out on an iPad.

I know some he should job to next...

Marty Jannetty
Road Dogg
Tatanka
Godfather
I.R.S.
Kevin Nash
X-Pac
Perry Saturn
JBL
Booker T
Michael Hayes

Heath Slater is seriously one of my favourites. I feel really sorry for those who cannot understand just why Slater is so good.

Tremendous. Just tremendous.

Heath Slater puts the universe into perspective:

<iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/-TOPatLkg_g" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

I would absolutely love to see Marty Jannetty versus Heath Slater on RAW. Bring back Shawn Michaels to close the segment with a Sweet Chin Music on Slater.

I've decided that Heath Slater should be a heel that acts like a babyface. His face promos are somehow less awkward than his heel promos. Just have him act like everyone wants to see him and is part of the Slater Squad. He can be that annoying guy that always shows up to the party.

Jesus, I don't think I can handle the awkwardness of the Wendy's chick and Derrick Bateman in the same ring at the same time with microphones.

However I now feel like a Bateman-Slater team where they do cringe-inducing promos before matches ala Ryback's jobbers could work for a month or two.

I really liked Slater in the Piper segment. What I REALLY liked about that segment though was Michael Cole singing along with him. I laughed SO hard.

his bitch tits make him awkward to watch

Did you feel the same way about Trish Stratus?

yes. i mean no.....maybe?

One of those is probably true. I'll allow it.

Was Heath Slater claiming to be as good as JTG there?

10 folks I'd like to see Slater job to:

10. Ron Simmons
9. JBL
8. 1-2-3 Kid
7. Taka Michinoku
6. Gangrel
5. Doink the Clown
4. Val Venis
3. Fake Razor Ramon
2. Steve Blackman
1. Damien Demento

Correct it as you see fit.

Taka. Slater you JACK ASS!

Fuck, I forgot about Adam Bomb. Is he still alive?

Michael Cole marked out for Slater coming out on SmackDown!. It's a pretty hilarious gimmick. Cole should start to manage Slater full-time, I think. He should leave the booth for Slater's matches and just celebrate at ringside with him.

Slater sells brilliantly as well. Wrestling these legends he has made these older, slower guys look like they could hang and are equal and above him. He is talented, just wish he had more of a character to play to.

I would be happy to be in his position. Wrestling these legends and being on the flagship show is better than being relegated to superstars with no plan or direction.

Plus words cannot describe how happy I was to see Sid back on TV tonight. Yes he was slow as shit, but considering his leg fell off last time he was in the ring, it was a nice and unexpected nostalgia moment.

Yes, he is.

He's no Scott Steiner

Ultimate Warriors music hitting would give me a semi, no lie

If only Savage was still alive :'(

Might be time for him to job to Scott Steiner, actually.

Did you make this, Noid? :naughty:

the Undertaker makes a return!

lol

seriously though

Steiner
HBK
Razor Ramon

I think out of all these guys Bret Hart, Ric Flair, and Kevin Nash have the greatest chance of being brought back.

X-Pac!

Heath Slater will finally get cheered,

and X-Pac can say

"Heath...you're the new me! LOL"

To insult him further, Ivory, Jacqueline, or Trish

It was already posted on here that HBK will attend the 1,000th episode and there will be a DX reunion.

Bobby Lashley should come back

Really like this idea...taking it further, he could take part in face celebrations over title wins and stuff....make triumphant run ins to save faces in beatdowns (unsuccessfully)...

After a while...a cooler face just snaps at him..."don't you realise that no-one likes you man?"....Bitter heel turn could really get him over...

Gangrel, but thats not gonna happen...

So, I dunno...

Brooklyn Brawler?

I hope for the 1,000th, Heath Slater gets a Tombstone.

and his sons the usos can come out and do some fancy tag team stuff.

Would be cool to see King Kong Bundy squash him too but what I really wanna see is the Bushwhackers back.

been expecting road dogg to be one of the "legends"

Would really like to see Carlito come in and squash Heath Slater.

No it isn't

Whoever it is. Slater will ruin it by showing he's in on the surprise by saying a catch phrase related to the guy. I'm Heath Slater and I'm from the outer reaches of your minnnnnnnd!

How would u guys feel if this impossible event happened,

"Im heath slater and im a REAL american!"

*hogan's music plays*

Fans : YAY!!!! HOGAN! HOGAN! HOGAN!

*ALLLYEALIYLIAAYLL1*

MOHHAMED HUSSAN WALKS OUT INSTEAD!

Muhhamed : Is there a bigger american that I am? Just because of my arabic heritage, you cant call me a non American!

Hassan fights Slater and fans actually CHEER Slater!

Fixed.

What would be sweet

Slater has teamed with Johnny Curtis before. They both come out and start trash talking and then bam:


The New Age Outlaws!

Then follow that up with Johnny Curtis squashing Heath Slater in under a minute. I like it.

New Age Outlaws with the full intro would be the best thing to happen in WWE since the last time the New Age Outlaws were there.

They both work backstage dont they? At least Road Dogg does, would be surprised if we dont get them making an appearance.

It should be Road Dogg and K-Kwik instead

Yeah hopefully. Hoping The Outlaws and X-Pac join HBK and HHH in the DX promo on the 1,000th episode.

And Mideon walks out naked and jiggles :lol:

Nah they've been fine.

ricky steamboat
ddp
dean malenko

I'm Heath Slater and how do you like me now?!

RIP Wendy.

I know for a fact it's going to be Scotty2Hotty.

Ken Shamrock! He’s still in shape to do a match, especially these squashes.

duggan fornext week since ts juy 2nd and duggan can be all USA!

maybe the patriot?

This was my answer.

Although not really a legend, it'd pretty good if Slater was in the ring talking about how people mock him and say he's not cool, how his voice isn't cool, his hair isn't cool, his ring gear isn't cool. Calling the crowd clueless, they don't know what's cool and "if what they say is 'cool' is actually cool...then I don't want to be cool."

Cue "I spit in the face of people who don't want to be cool".

Lethal Weapon Steve Blackman

American Dream Dusty Rhodes, just cause i wanna see Slater sell the Flip, Flop, and Fly!!!

what about all american Bob Backlund?

or made in the usa lex luger

Look at him... the guy is sick. Do you want to see him wrestle in this state?

i didn't realize that

maybe sgt. slaughter, jim duggan

us express's mike rotunda

I would give my left testicle to see DDP show up with his old WCW music and his old outfit.

I would give both of Fox's testicles to see DDP show up in his old outfit and music.

Be Funny to see Slater thrown to the Freaks and get the Recliner from Big Poppa Scotty Steiner!!

it would be awesome if bret hart came out to face heath slater wearing the pink n black attack attire and seeing him wear the old hitman shades to give them to a young fan at ringside

not a half bad idea

King Kong Bundy would be another good one if he's still able and is wrestling, as of 2011 I know he was still doing independent shows. Would love to see him give Slater the Avalanche splash and make the ref do the 5 count!!

even better would be to have slater team with hunico and cut a promo then boom, harts music plays and the hart foundation take those two on for a tag match

I wonder if the only reason this is Slater and not say, JTG or someone, is because someone came up with the Slater Time bit for the first return with Vader. Then they ran with it.

Would kill for him to be in the ring cutting a promo on how the ladies love him...

*HELLLLLLLO, LADIES"

I miss the Big Valbowski

There's really so many people it could be that I'd be pretty excited about, so many have already been mentioned in this thread. I wish this were just a running gimmick and not something that's going to end in a few weeks.

Haven't seen Dean Malenko in a while so that'd be cool.

A 50 year old Dean Malenko winning a squash match would certainly be interesting.

Nothing Dean Malenko has ever done would be interesting.

Monday will mark the long awaited return of.....

BOBBY EATON!

DLHV84 will prove us all wrong.

Goldberg there has really lost alot of weight!

Goldberg does seem to have lost a lot of weight, but him returning to squash Slater would certainly be appropriate.
