July 29, 201114 yr Author comment_5478167 Yes, and this is bottom of the bottom for the Birds. It is kinda funny to see Eric Bischoff blown off as nobody important though.
July 31, 201114 yr comment_5478347 So this was pretty much a ripoff of the Hart Foundation/Mean Gene angle from the 80's. Nice Cameo by Prescious though.
July 31, 201114 yr comment_5478348 Once you get past the idea of "Jesus Christ, The Real Freebirds used to be the coolest thing ever"...this shit was pretty funny.
August 30, 201114 yr comment_5481226 Their is wrestle crap. This is wrestle shit, but still entertaining as anything.
June 25, 201213 yr comment_5508098 Precious looks good. Eric Bishoff as a nobody is rather funny. Otherwise, the Freebirds were unbearable at this point, totally suck in the ring, and it was made worse by the fact they were faces.
July 28, 201312 yr comment_5553624 Good afternoon, Freebird Enterprises, could you hold please? Good afternoon, Freebird Enterprises, could you hold please? Good afternoon, Freebird Enterprises, could you hold please? Bischoff in the Bill Mercer put-upon announcer role is pretty funny. He meets up with an almost-unrecognizable, but even better-looking, Precious. I'm not ashamed to admit that I actually liked this. It was over as soon as it began, but Precious reinvented as a no-nonsense businesswoman trying desperately to keep the Freebirds in line and on focus was a gimmick that had potential. For the first time in awhile, Hayes and Garvin actually come across as being in on their own joke. Now, the question of whether they're supposed to be babyfaces or heels remains. They're sort of chummy with Bischoff and have words for Valentine and Taylor, but Hayes is a heel again under Watts, so...who knows.
August 28, 201312 yr comment_5559056 This is wrestlecrap, pure and simple. It's amusing wrestlecrap, with Precious semingly trying to mold them into respectable people, but Michael and Jimmy were still Michael and Jimmy.
February 6, 20169 yr comment_5725666 Precious as the "keeper" of the Birds was nice to see. The rest of this was a cheesier ripoff of the already cheesy Hart Foundation skit with Mean Gene, as stated earlier. It says something about what a joke the Birds were considered by this time that Precious' return at WrestleWar didn't make the set and this stuff did. How far down had the U.S. tag titles slipped by now? No wonder Watts killed them off as soon as he got there. The idea of these particular Birds chasing the DA for the World belts is far-fetched to say the least. Hell, Michael's so dumb these days that he has to be reminded to sign contracts in pen! (Seriously, the money must have been really good in order for Michael to willingly make himself look that stupid.)
April 24, 20205 yr comment_5915525 I loved seeing Bischoff treated like this too. We all have our petty moments. Precious was the best part of this segment by far. It seems like WCW has lost all direction and is just throwing stuff at the wall and hoping it works. And then quickly reversing itself in puzzling ways when it doesn't.
