    Hard to believe it's been over twenty years now.I remember the wedding being pushed so hard, it was the selling point of the "season premiere" for Smackdown, and how pissed some people (that don't understand wrestling) were that it ended up being an angle. Props to Stephanie for taking that Samoan Drop. I'd bet that the wrestlers that went on after had to feel a little awkward, having to follow that segment.

    Calling a bit of BS on it being ahead of their time, most of the gimmick was "LOL those guyz are soooo gay" Adrian Adonis was doing that 15 years prior. Lenny and Lodi were doing something similar in WCW 3 years beforehand. Not knocking Billy or Chuck for playing the roles they were given as best as they could, but saying this was in some way progressive is just blowing smoke.

    • @labbaby189
      @labbaby189 3 дні тому +2

      It was the ambiguity and the weird awkward energy of it. Adonis and them were meant to get heat for their antics. Billy and Chuck magically got over even though they were midcard heels, and for me it was because of how they progressed throughout that gimmick.

    I wouldn't say they were ahead of their time because they didn't go full gay. They could've got married and kissed then it would've been ahead of its time -- but that wouldve killed the characters. Unfortunately how the marriage played out also killed the characters because it solidified they were NOT gay. They should have never had the wedding at all. Making people wonder if they were gay or not was what made the characters fun to watch.

    • @GR8NE55
