I have six years Indy experience under my belt.

Really??!! Me, too!  But I got tired of the Fedora and the whip.  Besides, who needs all those dusty artifacts surrounded by snakes, anyway!

FYI, though.....back in the 80's I thought the BEST gimmick ever would've been and Indy type character...but no one ever did it that I remember.

[Evolution]

Haha, the whole WWE Title/Holy Grail material just waiting there is pure gold!

[Hammy]

Experience?

But is he with WWE now?

[Evolution]

Nope. He has the ring skills of Hogan to match!

[slash666]

for anyone interested he was "Switowski" in the film "The Longest Yard", the guy who's nose goldberg broke

[Hammy]

WWE want him.

TNA want him.

He stays in Japan though, he is way popular there, has to wrestle much less than he would in this country and get's massive paydays, why would he join WWE? ?He'd work way more dates for way less money.

[Evolution]

Has his star fallen at all? I remember reading in Powerslam that he got his arse handed to him in MMA.

WWE officials made a pitch towards Bob Sapp, but nothing resulted thus far from talks. TNA was also talking to Bob Sapp about coming in as a possible opponent of Samoa Joe, but those talks didn't go too far.

Thats seems to suggest what you guys are saying

I heard that, but it ain't fallen that much, make a name in Japan and you are set.

D'Lo Brown, Steve Corino, Giant Bernard (A-Train) are all very happy there.

Edit:
From WWE.com:

After last year?s Survivor Series featured a battle of the brands in a Classic Survivor Series Match between Team SmackDown and Team RAW, did you really think that the annual Thanksgiving season pay-per-view would roll around again without ECW trying to crash the party? Yea, we didn?t either. So it came as no surprise when WWE.com was informed that the ECW Extremists will be looking for their piece of the action in Philadelphia on November 26.

The details of ECW?s involvement in Survivor Series are still unclear, but we do know for certain that the Extremists will be in the building and that it will be RAW vs. SmackDown vs. ECW when the second longest running pay-per-view in WWE history celebrates its 20th anniversary. Will we still see a Classic Survivor Series elimination tag match, or will the involvement of a third brand bring about a new type of match stipulation?

The Extremists will be hoping to shake up the landscape of one of the biggest and most popular pay-per-views in WWE. Survivor Series has been the setting for many a classic WWE moment, and Paul Heyman?s extreme cult will storm into the Wachovia Center looking to replace WWE fans? Survivor Series memories of Sharpshooters and Big Boots with tables, chairs and high-risk stunts.

They will have their work cut out for them, as Survivor Series 1997 is, even nine years later, one of the most talked about events in WWE history. That event is, of course, the infamous ?Montreal Screwjob,? in which Bret Hart was cheated out of the WWE Championship when Mr. McMahon forced the timekeeper to ?Ring the f***ing bell!?

The addition of ECW to the Survivor Series roster provides a wealth of excitement and unpredictability, but it will certainly not be the first big debut at the November pay-per-view. Kurt Angle, Undertaker and The Rock all got their first taste of WWE Superstardom at Survivor Series, and in 2002, WWE fans witnessed the type of carnage that the Extremists will hope to bring to Surivor Series with the unveiling of the Elimination Chamber.

RVD / CM Punk / Sabu / Big Show / Hardcore Holly

vs

Ken Kennedy / Batista / Finlay / Lashley / Undertaker

vs

Carlito / HBK / Randy Orton / Jeff Hardy / Edge

That would be an Awesome match.

There are so many combinations depending on who has the title at the time i guess

[Gnrfan]

Does anyone else think that the ECW show might get extended to and hour and half or two hours.

And does anyone else hate the fact there is only one belt in ECW.

Bring back the TV title. Give it to CM punk and let him go on an RVD like run.

[the dirt]

WWE want him.

TNA want him.

He stays in Japan though, he is way popular there, has to wrestle much less than he would in this country and get's massive paydays, why would he join WWE? ?He'd work way more dates for way less money.

He's getting tons more money in Japan; Really?
