      Heels have the valets paid off to keep an eye on the show & have the ride in place for them if a quick exit is necessary… duh 😆 Those valets are paid off the books to perform all kinds of dirty work, including whodunit hit & runs in the parking garage and even the murder of Mr. McMahon in his exploding limo.

    You know, I don't think Molly Holly gets enough credit for the team player she was at this time. She was a strict born again Christian, but not only competed in matches like these, but always made it fit her gimmick. She had her head shaved in front of millions of people, JUST to get the women's championship on a Wrestlemania card, she was a pretty damn good wrestler, and I have never heard anyone in the business say a single bad word about her.

      No they wouldn't cause theyd really find out whos over and who isnt and they dont wanna do that
      For Example lets say you have a match for the wwe Championship with Kofi in a fair poll
      Choices
      Roman Reigns
      Shinsuke Nakamura
      Finn Balor
      Kevin Owens
      Rusev
      Daniel Bryan
      Wildcard Surprise (Cesaro, Braun, or Joe)
      Do you really think theyd be ok with Roman losing that poll???
      Theyd fix that poll so Roman would win..
      Roman would probably get 3% in a real poll
      Shinsuke, rusev, wildcard Surprise or Bryan would win that poll by far.
      Or they'd do something like to try and trick people
      Choices
      Shinsuke
      Bryan
      Rusev
      Balor
      Owens
      Surprise Mystery opponent (Roman or shane)
      An idea like that wouldn't work because vince couldn't control the outcome unless the voting is scrpited

      So you're asking whose outfit which is the relative clause for posession.
      If the question was phrased differently like say "What should the girls dress like?" the plural form would be correct.

    -Snitsky showing up to Jericho's Highlight Reel with a fake baby and _punting it into the crowd_ never ceases to make me laugh at how stupid it was; almost made the entire terrible feud worth it. (Almost.)
    -Kane & Snitsky main evented one RAW in Toronto, very late in the feud I presume and _way_ past its expiration date I recall, and the smark "Bizarro World" crowd there dumped all over it; chanting for Snitsky and the hometown Maple Leafs and doing the wave during it. Very satisfying, honestly.

  • @MRG978
    @MRG978 5 ปีที่แล้ว +45

    The apostrophe works because possession of an outfit is implied.
    Ie: "Nurse's outfit"

    • @TherealRNOwwfpooh
      @TherealRNOwwfpooh 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      The question, per the bar graph, was: "WHAT outfit should the Divas WEAR?"
      Even though the ladies themselves are both the SUBJECT & the actual FOCUS of the question, the use of the VERBiage "Wear" indicates POSSESSION regarding the type of outfit chosen, making the outfit choice become an ADJECTIVE, effectively using the NOUNS of "Nurse", "French Maid" & "Schoolgirl" as DESCRIPTIVE terms that pertain to the listed outfits in question.
      So, if written properly, the response (if using the choice of outfit as a DESCRIPTOR) should be written as follows:
      1. [A] NURSE'S [outfit] (as in, what a Nurse wears, rather than the "Nurse is" contraction)
      2. [A] FRENCH MAID'S [costume] (meaning, a French Maid getup, rather than the "French Maid is" contraction)
      3. [A] SCHOOLGIRL'S [uniform] (as in, your standard anime loli stereotype attire, rather than the "Schoolgirl is" contraction)
      The use of the apostrophe IS correct, because it is actively DESCRIBING the kind of outfit to be worn, as it DIRECTLY refers to WHICH ATTIRE the ladies will be wearing during the "Fulfill Your Fantasy" contest.
      If the question were "What should the Divas DRESS AS?" then it would be grammatically correct to use the PLURAL form, as there are multiple women wearing the same chosen outfit, so it would be written thusly...
      The Divas should be DRESSED AS: 1. Nurses, 2. French Maids, or 3. Schoolgirls.

It was a surprise because John Morrison was in the vote and he was much more popular than The Miz in 2007 (I don't recall who the third option was). It felt like everyone in the Verizon Center in DC were shocked and there wasn't much of a pop. Perhaps fans were a little burned out on the Punk/Morrison feud?

Guys like Rene Dupree, Luther Reigns, Kenzo Suzuki and Heidenreich are featured on TV but they flopped while Shelton Benjamin became a huge star (and Carlito as well) and John Cena, Batista and Edge slowly rise to the top.
      And of course, there was Eugene...and the Diva Search...and the Tough Enough where Daniel Puder nearly broke Kurt Angle’s arm and he became the winner. What about the runner up? He may have lost but in the near future, he will become a bigger star than Mr Puder

As far as Kenzo’s career goes, he didn’t do anything significant except win the WWE tag team titles with Renee Dupree and adopt an “I Love USA” gimmick and engage in a battle rap against John Cena
      As far as tag teams go, most of the tag teams at the time are mostly composed of two different individuals who are trying to work together in order to win a match and they don’t possess some sort of chemistry between them. With the exception of tag teams like La Resistance at the time during 2004, most of the tag teams are randomly put together without any hype whatsoever
