My Theory (Festus)

[Dee Dee King]

So, Smackdown! just ended with Undertaker defeating Festus (as if Festus would win ). He won with that Submission we've been seeing a lot of lately, which Festus was in for quite a while. After he won, Cole kept saying "Is Festus going to be ok? What are the long term effects from this?". In my opinion, the way they were milking this 'long term effects', the Festus gimmick itself could be changing. Maybe he will not longer do his ring bell change anymore? I just thought because Cole kept repeating it over & over. Or, nothing could change & I could be wrong . Anyone else agree/disagree?

[vertan]

I wouldn't be surprised if that "cured" Festus.

I'd rather him be some crazy monster or something, but let's face it. If he is, he'll end up just like Snitsky.

[msenger76]

maybe the truth will be revealed that he is the "cousin" of the brothers of destruction

[rkolegendkilla]

It's only a matter of time before he turns on Jesse.

[skribbel24]

Seems like it. Good observation, I never thought of it that way. Could a Festus push be on the way?

[King Shocker the Monumentous]

But...Joey Styles gave him one of my favorite nicknames ever, and if he's cured, it won't fit anymore!

[Tim Tebow™]

That's what I was thinking since the bell rang and Festus didn't go, well, intellectually- disabled, and calm.

[Thick Justice]

Since I want too be a writer I'd end up having too work with guys I don't like I'll give it a try.

OK Here's what I'd do.

Next week Festus comes out and he is aggressive. He'd have a rematch. He gets destroyed but Kane is shown in the back passed out in blood. He couldn't even sit up. Taker would run too the back. Festus would sit up. He laughs.

The Next Week They'd start the show saying he is in the hospital. The second hour they'd say he has a visitor. At the end they'd show Paul Bearer by Kane and He says Kane I forgot to tell you something. He's all expecting nothing to happen because Kane is unconcious black and blue with a neck brace on. He whispers in to his ear. Kane sits up and destroys the whole room. The end of the show they show Kane standing tall then the lights go out and a hue lightning bolt zaps Kane. The end of the show they show a dark figure.

The next show starts with Paul Bearer coming out saying Kane is dead. Then the Undertaker comes out and chokes him and says what did you do. With his eyes rolled into the back of his head. Then Undertaker heads too the back and talks to Vickie. She says her and Edge have nothing to do with it but she will demand whoever did it reveals himself next week. That ends the show.

Next week Taker is shown heading to the ring followed by smoke. They go to commercial. Takers music plays. No Taker but they show in the back that Taker is on the ground in a puddle of blood. He puts on a little make up too look like all his skin is white like a ghost. Vickie says that whoever did it is getting what they want a title match at Backlash. The Whole ring starts to shake and then lightning bolts hit the ring and it starts to rain blood. Then you hear a huge explosion. On the screen they show a man in a Blue Kane mask. He says Kane you tormented me all my life because I'm not as smart as you well now your dead. Taker I'm coming for your title. Then Lightning strikes again and 2 caskets appear in the ring. One has Kane and the other has a fake Taker in it.

Backlash: the ring starts too shake. Then everytime they show Taker it turns into a sign saying RIP. Everytime the announcers say Undertaker the lights go out.

Ring time: They show Taker heading to the ring. He is all in bandages and has blood on his face. The ring then is surrounded by fire. Taker looks chalk white. Taker even looks scared. They then have the ringstart too shake. Then druids with Blue coats and Blue Smoke come out. They are bringing in a Blue and White casket. It starts too open. Then Taker goes to try and push it down but his hand starts on fire. Then a huge explosion. It flies Open and Festus pops out in the blue Kane mask and gear. He tottally squashes Taker. Taker even nlifts him up and gives him a tombstone. He no-sells it. Taker then tries again but he flips over and hits it but pulls him up. He gives him a choke slam. He then gives him a last ride. He ends it with another tombstone. He pins him. Then he rolls him out of the ring into a coffin. He seals it and lights it on fire. The druids bring him too the back still on fire. Leaving him as champion.

Several months later Promos start airing. Kane and Taker promos air for two months. Week One lights go out and the bells ring. Week 2 coffins appear in the ring. Week Three the ring shakes while Festus is in it. Week Four he almost gets pulled in. Leading to Festus being pulled under the ring the next week. Then he crawls out barely. The next week he knows better and jumps backwards. However another hole appears and he gets drug in. Week 6 they show Kane and Taker on the screen in coffins in total attitude era gear. Vickie then says Fine next month Festus is facing Kane and the Undertaker in Hell in a Cell for the championship.

They come out in coffins masks/Ministry gear. They both come out of the coffins. Taker pins him in Hell in a cell.

Next SD: Kane and Taker go to the ring and say they are the leaders. Then out comes Festus and he goes into the ring and gets down on one knee. Taker looks at Kane. Kane tells Taker no. Kane then says fine he pulls him up and they lift there arms in the air.

Next week Festus and Kane face Deuce and Domino. They finish with stereo piledrivers in under 5 mins.

Next week they win singles matches.

The week after they attack the tag team champions after they said they weren't going to get a shot.

Next PPV They win the tag team championship.

wat did joey styles call him?

[Pure-Shape-Mind]

...If he's unconsious when the bell rings, does he hear it?

If anything, he may not have heard the bell ring and his condition could still be there... but reversed.

If he missed the finishing bell, he'd be in monster mode until his next match began... at which point the bell would ring and he'd turn calm during his matches instead of loopy...

....Makes sense to me.

Then they could run a gimmick where Jesse kept trying to knock out Festus during matches to try to reverse him back. That spells comedy.

[DTP.]

I'd like to see Jesse go solo but WWE needs teams like it has needed for so many long years [there are a fair amount of teams who aren't over with the fans unfortunately]

[Fury]

Festus came across as a legitimate main eventer in that match and I love it. I really look forward to what they do with Festus.

Thats exactly what i was thinking, since he was unconcious did he hear the bell?
