There was some weird choices going on with that group. im not even sure if Jindrak was part of HHH's crew or what. I know "Katie Vick" was also named as such to introduce Scott "Sick Boy" Vick as her brother around the same time. The mind of HHH is hard to figure.

hey, i read 411, too
ReplyDeletei never got the appeal of evolution. totally contrived to be a horsemen ripoff. the only good thing that came out of it was when batista turned face. the rest smacked of hhh trying too hard to be a modern day flair
ReplyDeleteThis sucked, was there a question or opinion expressed? This is the antiBaker.
ReplyDeleteThose suits are terrible.
ReplyDeleteThat was the whole point, it was an updated version of The Horsemen.
ReplyDeleteThe appeal of Evolution, at least for Triple H, was to bury the entire roster.
ReplyDeleteWasn't watching when Jindrak was with Angle so my only real memories of him was the Natural Born Thrillers. Man how different wrestling would have been.
ReplyDeleteThey don't even fit right. Orton's, especially, looks completely ridiculous. And before anyone says something, that was NOT how things were fitted circa 2003.
ReplyDeleteJindrak didn't get the part due to diminished eyesight caused by an odd refusal to wear sunglasses outdoors.
ReplyDeleteIt did, however, lead to Orton vs. Jindrak, the greatest I Quit match of all time.
ReplyDelete"Put the goddamn glasses on!"
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"
*THONK*
Jindrak was a lot like Curtis Axel - great look, great size / body, athletic, has everything but just missing "it".
ReplyDeleteLol

Evolution has a fake ID
ReplyDeleteThey called themselves Brian McGee
Got drunk and listened to Queen
That's pretty funny, I'd never heard about it.
ReplyDeleteBastisa and Booker T are the best dressed dudes in wrestling. When big dudes wear suits they are either too tight or too big. Theirs fit just right.
ReplyDeleteEvolution's on my TV
ReplyDeleteHHH put them there to see
Pushes end based on his decree
Evolution's having wine and cheese.
ReplyDeleteA sunny picnic filled with glee.
Next let's buy stuff for scrapbooking.
Evolution's a mystery
ReplyDeleteH dumped Chyna for Stephanie
Flair is drunk in an SUV
Evolution has a pet monkey.
ReplyDeleteSeemed like fun until it peed.
Now Flair's carpet's stained and all stinky.
I miss HHH's Fabio hair.
ReplyDeleteThank God HHH got the final say in THAT one.
ReplyDelete"Jindrak looks so out of place in this picture"
ReplyDeleteAnd why not just go with O'Haire
ReplyDeleteHHH said that once Vince realized Jindrak wasn't going to work out, he acted like Batista was his idea..
ReplyDeleteIf they picked Jindrak they might as well replaced Orton with Maven, and made the legend Buff Bagwell and gone full on CM Punk stable.
ReplyDeleteHHH says on the dvd that "Vince wanted it to be the five of us" so I figured it was at the time when Batista was injured and they were going to bring Jindrak in to fill the spot.
ReplyDeleteI got the impression all the Batista/Jindrak talk on the dvd was about before the group even debuted.
ReplyDeleteEvolution is so sisterly
ReplyDeleteThey'll do their hair and sit to pee
And they giggle while watching Glee
Evolution is so blistery
ReplyDeleteThey don't wear socks on their feet
Better fix it with some cream
Evolution is all jittery
ReplyDeleteUp all night, taking speed
Wash it down with a can of V
Evolution owns a knittery
ReplyDeleteArts and crafts for all to see
Batista made a scarf for me
Evolution: murder mystery
ReplyDeleteRic, dust for prints for me
Cover the corpse with a sheet
Evolution is full of STDs
ReplyDeleteGonorrhea and HIV
Orton's face is all scabby
This is hilarious to me
ReplyDeleteHence the problem. The Horsemen came together organically. Evolution felt contrived, like when Noah's Arcade presented Wayne's World.
ReplyDeleteWhat was inorganic about it? Batista and Orton weren't much more than injured rookie jobbers. If Triple H and Ric Flair come up to you and say "you, you're with us now!", you'd say no? Not really contrived at all. It's not like they took two guys up the card, who both had to turn heel to join up.
ReplyDeleteToo many people, not just wrestlers, don't bother getting their suits fitted properly. It makes such a a huge difference.
ReplyDeleteOh how cute! They're wearing matching outfits!
ReplyDeleteBroadly speaking, inorganic simply means that the story didn't feel natural. For example. The Dangerous Alliance was built very well and fell apart well. It all made sense and grew the correct way, therefor it was organic.
ReplyDeleteThe Punk stuff with Heyman feels organic. They've built it and have been playing headgames for months. Though Punk has a way to make almost everything feel organic.
The ADR face turn was inorganic. The fans were confused, it came out of nowhere, nobody supported it and it was turned around just as quickly.
Evolution similarly came out of nowhere. None of the guys had teamed before or even fought before really, they had no past stories, they had no reason to be together (Kayfabe) other than to be a modern 4 Horsemen. Thus, inorganic.

ReplyDeleteSupposedly, it was a bad match with Jericho that convinced Vince to scuttle the idea.
ReplyDeleteNo idea if that's true, but the time-line certainly fits - I distinctly remember the rumors that Jindrak was joining the group, he had the match with Jericho on "Raw", it was pretty bland and basic, and the rumors immediately died.
Orton and jindrak became really good road friends after bunking together in ovw. Orton pushed for jindrak in the group but after a few weeks they went with Batista. Orton was really upset when jindrak was released a few years later
ReplyDeleteVince always had the habit of wearing a giant jacket too.
ReplyDelete<- this man blows goats.
ReplyDeleteOr the ability to wrestle. He was missing that too
ReplyDeletePeople with athletic builds have the hardest time getting suits because you have to get a larger suit and cut it down to size.
ReplyDeleteWinner.
ReplyDeleteEvolution are bitches to me.
ReplyDeleteAfter rough sex with Stephanie
Hunter walks oh so gingerly.
Yea wtf is with those NBA fuzzy warm-up suits.
ReplyDelete(realizing that I myself had a fuzzy powder blue Pistons one)
Evolution listens to 'Glycerine'
ReplyDeleteThere are no other Bush songs, it seems
Except for sometimes 'Broken TV'
I could tell you, but then I'd just be telling something you already know.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure that's gone on all through Vince's reign.
ReplyDeleteReproduction is no mystery,
ReplyDeleteWe need to talk Stephanie,
Why does our first born look like Randy (Savage)?
Batista & O'Haire might have made a pretty sick monster heel tag team back then
ReplyDeleteI have proof
ReplyDeleteThat arrow is pointing at yourself, Bill.
ReplyDeleteIf you have broad shoulders and a smaller waist, as many athletes do, it's an absolute must to get your shirts and jackets taken in at the waist. Otherwise you look like Jindrak. It's also a good idea to match collars, lapels, and tie width to your overall size and proportions.
ReplyDeleteGod I got old at some point.
Well, that's not entirely true. Ric Flair was the piece that connected them. He had been managing Batista and was affiliated with Triple H. Orton was sorta the odd man out.
ReplyDeleteVince also became color blind at some point with his choices in outfits.
ReplyDeleteAxel looks like a chipmunk.
ReplyDeleteNot a great look.
Jindrak looks like he was pulled from being an extra with the Talking Heads.
