Well yeah it's Eugene! What did he expect, that he came back all ripped and lean while rocking Orton's tight T-shirt no pants look?

Because if the guy playing the retard doesn't have rock hard abs, it JUST isn't believable.

Wow, Orton went from nice to douche in less then 10 seconds. But he's right Eugene did come back with an extra 50 pounds. WWE should have used him as a development trainer though he's good.

When I think classic Summerslam matches, MVP vs Jeff Hardy is #2.

Orton's a asshole, but one of those funny assholes, who you would hang out with just to see what he did next.

If he did, in fact, pull some strings to get Dinsmore his job back, kudos to him. And shame on Dinsmore for being a slouch.

Wait, Eugene wasn't always overweight?
Posted By: Bonerfied (Guest) on August 26, 2009 at 11:27 AM
Nice work Nick. Try to show some respect to Mr. Randall K. Orton next time, fatty.

Randy Orton doing someone a favor? Ha!

Is Orton the new HHH now? First Kennedy, now Eugene. hmmmmm

'"Nick is a good friend of mine. I pulled some strings to get his job back and he comes back all overweight. So all in all, I am a little upset with him right now."'
from personal experience, i know just how embarrassing it is when you stand up for a friend, get them a job in your workplace, and then have them show up and be exactly the opposite of what you told the boss they were.
happened to me twice, and i will never help a friend get a job again because of it.

Eugene was "all overweight"? Strange, he looked exactly the same as he did 3 or so years ago.
Posted By: The Ogre (Guest) on August 26, 2009 at 12:34 PM
That Eugene article made me ROFL
Posted By: Guest#3742 (Guest) on August 26, 2009 at 12:48 PM
Could this little dig by Randy perhaps lead to a long term build up between Orton & Eugune @ Wrestlemania?
Hopefully Randy will still have the WWE Championship and will do what Triple H was suppose to do to him and PASS the torch at wrestlemania to Eugene!
I'd book it by making Eugene using other peoples finishers to win, then at the royal rumble legacy, AKA Ted Dibiase buys the #1 and 29/30 spots in the rumble tricking and riging Eugene into accepting #1 and Dibiase/Rhodes in 29 & 30!
This will lead to Eugene ultimately overcoming the odds and eventually dethroning Orton at W-mania 26, not only beating him but beating him with a RKO!

Boy, I wonder how many personal friends that Orton has now - outside of WWE.
Posted By: Kato (Guest) on August 26, 2009 at 12:53 PM
Dinsmore has himself to blame. But seriously Orton, STFU you boring prick. He's no Cena in terms of entertainment or as a person. Cena is a class act.
Orton is an anti-American pig who ran away from the Marine Corps. Fucking coward, he'll never live one that down.
Posted By: Guest#0784 (Guest) on August 26, 2009 at 02:53 PM
what the heck? Eugene isn't that overweight...his belly doesnt even hang over his tights. What a crap thing to say Orton, he is exactly the same as was before and is still agile and fit enough to compete you ass. Just because you turn invisible when sideways doesn't mean Eugene has to.

The article never said anything about Eugene losing his job because of Orton.

A few days ago there was an article from good ole JR. They asked him if Dusty Rhodes was in his prime could he make it in the WWE. JR said hell yeah because it wasn't about weight. He said Rhodes could cut a promo better then anybody in the business. Eugene may not be as entertaining as Dusty but he was pretty damn entertaining so I thought his retarded gimmick was pretty funny and it went over really well in it's prime. I think JR. the WWE and Randy Orton are full of shit. Randy's statement was covered in douche I'd rather watch Eugene job then watch the Miz go after the US title.

I know exactly what you mean, I let a friend of mine use me for a reference to get a job where I work, and put in a good word for him with the boss.
He ended up quitting a few months later. And went out on a bad note. He called in 5 minutes before he was supposed to start his shift, and instead of calling the office, he called me, and I had to be the bearer of bad news.
That said I still think Orton is a dick.

You probably didn't get my last comment, but I no longer get Classics on Demand because Time Warner doesn't carry it. I don't need to see updates for a service I can't get anymore.
So please, be courteous to this long-time reader and no longer feature these updates on your site. I hope I won't have to ask you again. Thank you.

John Tenta is rolling over in his grave.
Posted By: SeatsPro (Guest) on August 26, 2009 at 03:41 PM
So wait, during the one month he had been hired, not one person noticed he had gained weight and if they did they didnt say or do anything about it. But by God he went on TV and everyone got disgusted by his weight? Makes no sense.
Posted By: Krowe (Guest) on August 26, 2009 at 03:45 PM
I've heard that Vince is big on first impressions and that when he saw Dinsmore, he chose to get rid of him.
Posted By: The Great Capt. Smooth (Guest) on August 26, 2009 at 05:00 PM
LOrton is the next HHH. From Kennedy's story as well, he seems to have some political pull and is always backstabbing people and doing about-faces.
Posted By: lilwayne1 (Guest) on August 26, 2009 at 06:14 PM
Wait so because Orton helped out a friend he is an asshole?
Nice work people.

LOL! This is the best comment ever!!!!
Posted By: SA (Guest) on August 26, 2009 at 10:08 PM
if Eugene is overweight and got fired then how the hell does Big show and Mark Henry have a job.
