So...The New Hart Foundation?
Hell yeah baby. But it'll be called "The Hart Trilogy" or some shit like that.
Haven't seen or read about ECW yet but I'll take a guess:
Natalya, Tyson Kidd and Harry Smith formed a stable?
I bet I'm right...
And it's about damn time.
That story idea has only been floating around the internet for about 4 years!
All they need to do is sign Teddy Hart and completely steal the numerous booking ideas I have seen during that time.
Gotta love WWE Creative!
How stupid are they?
Just hire 3 or 4 20 year olds and have them read every Be The Booker thread on wrestling fan forums. The amount of quality shit WWE could steal in 1 month would last the company years.
Just read a review of ECW: Davey Hart Smith!
His Mom's name is/was Diana Hart Smith so I'll go with it.
I don't think they'll call them the Hart Foundation, or the Hart anything for the simple reason that Kidd is not a Hart family member (unless my memory is fading)
I don't know what they'll call them...
Kidd isn't a Hart family member, but HE IS a graduate of the Dungeon and Natalya's lover in real life.
Just toss in DJ Gabriel(another Brit) who is pretty decent but isn't doing anything right now and you got a stable.
DJ Gabriel is less than memorable right now. He is a roided out freak.Quote:

BTW, on PWTorch.com they do "Hits and Misses" from each show. Whoever did the ECW one called them the Hart Trilogy...
There isn't any connection. But I figured since he's young, has a little talent, and isn't being used he can be thrown in.Quote:

Unless you are WWE, I guess. Witness little horney and Goldust..
I'd love to see the Hart Trilogy show up on Smackdown with Chris Jericho as the centrepiece. (Talent Exchange between Long and his girl Tiffany) Then on the next PPV have Jericho and Orton have a little moment backstage where they eye ball each other and kind of have a staredown but no punches or shoves or anything. They just pass each other in the hallway or on the ramp or something.
Then at some point in the future you could have some interaction between DiBiase/Rhodes and Hart/Kidd as you slowly, slowly build towards what could be a feud that draws money. Jericho v Orton would be money. If the other guys are handled correctly that could be worth $$$ too.
BTW, while I'm rambling about Orton and Legacy did anyone see how Batista out-smarted them on Raw. I think that the whole thing could have been done much better and they could have added some anticipation for Judgement Day PPV. Here's how:
So, we've seen DiBiase/Rhodes (one of them) laying down backstage and it's obvious someone attacked him. Orton and the other one go looking for Batista. As they "search" the hallways Orton keeps yelling out "Wait until Sunday Dave, I've got 2 big surprises for you" or something like that. They should drive that home as the search goes on.
Next thing you know Batista takes out Rhodes/DiBiase, which ever one was searching with Orton. Orton then appears on the scene and yells out again about the 2 surprises he has in store for Batista at the PPV. We cut away to Batista creeping through a hallway and then back to Orton, now with DiBiase and Rhodes.
The 3 Legacy members are still trying to catch Batista, but out of nowhere he comes running down the hallway. The trio run towards the loading dock.(camera man better run too). Rhodes flicks the switch for the roller door as Orton and DiBiase stand guard armed with whatever they can find in the dock (wrench and tyre iron). Security rush onto the scene but still no Batista.
The roller door is up far enough for the Legacy members to crawl underneath it so naturally they do, taking their weapons with them. Batista arrives just as the door reaches waist height. From outside he is hit by the tyre iron and falls to his knees. The camera man goes down to get a close up of the pain and agony on Batista's face.
The camera then pans outside (with some MTV style angle) and we see 2 cars: Orton gets into the first one as DiBiase and Rhodes jump into the second one. The 2 cars burn rubber and leave.
Batista screams in pain again and we go back to the commentators who talk about the search and "who was driving those 2 cars? Are they Orton's 2 surprises? Two new members of Legacy? You'll find out on Judgement Day" or something like that to hype the surprises.
Now, the question WWE creative would ask is: Will anyone not ordering the PPV already purchase it to find out who the 2 new guys are? My realistic answer (and I'll try to be unbiased) is Maybe!
But here's a better question: Will anyone ordering the PPV already CANCEL their purchase of it because this has been added? My realistic answer is Fuck No!
You're more likely to hook more viewers with my idea IMO. So why not add the anticipation? It's not there for something to do either. It serves 5 purposes IMO:
1 - Rumour has it that DiBiase will be turned face before his movie is released on DVD cause WWE don't wanna plug a movie starring a heel. So this puts some new blood in Legacy NOW, before they have to turn DiBiase later.
2 - Now that Orton has won the title does anyone expect him to sit back and chill out? Or do fans expect him to just become this crazy power hungry fucker that put the McMahon's out to pasture and is looking to take over? I'll go with him being a crazy, power hungry fucker. So naturally he recruits some new members for Legacy, to protect him (since DiBiase and Rhodes haven't exactly been doing an awesome job) or just to flex!
3 - depending on who you bring in (there are plenty of second generation wrestlers in the WWE development ranks) you could have another tag team and allow DiBiase and Rhodes to be singles wrestlers. Rhodes might not be ready for that yet but I'm damn sure many people in WWE believe DiBiase is gonna be a huge star for them at some point.
4 - it brings more new blood to Raw
5 - and the one WWE Creative will love: it allows Triple H to truely play the all conquering hero when he returns for his revenge on Orton and Legacy. He has more guys to smash and beatdown and attack and this draws out the feud with Orton so we don't waste their one on one match on some shitty PPV.
Instead we get Triple H v Orton at the next Mania with Triple H looking to overcome all the odds of Legacy (even without DiBiase Orton would have the 2 new guys I put in plus Rhodes). When Triple H does beat the living shit out of all these guys the crowd would go ape (or as ape as they do for the hated Triple H) and HHH gets the show closing moment at Mania again!
See, I can work for WWE - I put Triple H over in a feud where he battles at least 4 different guys on his own! Sign me up Vince.
How fucking long is that post? Damn -I gotta stop writing all this stuff or do a "Be The Booker" thing on here.
Who wants to see me do a "Be The Booker" thing, though?
