Sorry to the Keith haters out there, but I saw this on his blog, and I think its an awesome fuckin idea. Just wanted to share, just for fun:

| So I'm sure we've all heard about the casting call for someone to play Shelton Benjamin's mother, but I like another idea I saw on a couple of boards, where Bischoff would retire from GM'ing and become Shelton's loudmouth agent instead, which would give them a chance to spoof football players and do inside jokes like having him renegotiate his contract before every match and just generally being a pain in the ass. You could do bits of Jericho schtick in there from WCW, or have Bischoff carrying his contract around at all times, loaded with magic clauses up the yin-yang to cover every possible situation, with the hapless face GM forced to adhere to them because they're all legally binding. The show has been so overflowing with chickenshit narcissist heels that an arrogant, talented-and-he-knows-it heel ala early Kurt Angle is exactly what the show has been lacking. |
I've been waiting for WWE to run with this Terrell Owens kind of thing with an agent or manager for awhile. This is the perfect oppurtunity.

I read that too, but WWE wouldn't be smart enough to do that. It's too hard of an idea for a bunch of comic book reading dorks to plot out without having superheros use lazer-vision to make the saves.

That really is a fantastic idea.

But the "momma" angle doesn't have much of a purpose still.

ah-hah...but remember what we learned earlier this year: Kurt Angle wants to have sex with black women!

Even if they're 50-60 years old and overweight? Or are we going to discover two more of Kurt Angle's fetishes?

Certainly... 50-60 years and overweight. Angle can even look up Mike Awesome for tips on being the "Fat Chic Thriller".
Shelton's Mamma is only a 6 month position...so they've already written a conclusion. I'm sure Angle would bang her to "death", much like Dawn Marie did to Al Wilson

I'll be honest, I think it's a terrible idea. It wouldn't work, everyone would realize that it's a T.O gimmick and it certainly wouldn't draw a dime.

I was thinking of Orton at the time I read this and of the "Legend Killer" gimmick, so when I read Mike Awesome and "Fat Chic Thriller", I thought I said "Fat Chic Killer".
Well, Angle did decide to wrestle Maria, so may be he doesn't like skinny and young tall blondes with fair skin.
