And the Canadian Faction is FINALLY been born! - Eternal Allegiance

Well, its about damn time! I've been waiting a while for this to happen, and I'm very excited about it. The Canadian faction has just been born. Last week, Lance Storm started defending Canadians, after he was wrongfully defeated in a match. He yelled a bit at the ref, and realized that the ref was a Hebner. He then brought up the point that the Hebner's seem to have a history of screwing great Canadians. Well, at the time, specifically CALGARIANS!!!!

Earlier tonight, Christian was defeated in his match, after he had his foot on the rope. The ref was once again the Hebner kid. Lance came out to defend Christian, and made a huge speech about how not only is the WWE prejudice against Canadians, but how Americans are prejudice against Canadians and all other nations. And thus, we have the birth of the first WWE Canadian Faction!!!

CANADA KICKS ASS!!!

I expect Jericho and Test to join this faction, and maybe as a result of the critism they will get for being Canadian, Trish and Edge may one day join the team.

Hey, people can be proud of being Canadian. I don't care. But the "America sucks" comment is just stupid.

Anyway, I hope Trish doesn't join any heel group. I like it that she is a face and everyone likes her.

Well, how many television shows have had many stereotypes and Canada sucks jokes? I hear them quite often. So there is no need to be getting defensive over one "America Sucks". And besides, they're just building up the hate towards our team! GO Y2J. And I agree, Trish AND Edge better not go back to heel. I love having two Canadians at the top of the industry, on the good side!

Hey, I'm not one of those people who says that Canada sucks or makes jokes about Canada. So I'm going to defend against comments about America.

I think it is cool (altough your america comment was not!) but i do not see Edge joining, he is going to stay a face 4 a while.

Oh come on, Of course it was necessary, otherwise a lot of Americans wouldn't be so pissed off at them.

NDD · 06-20-2002, 06:42 PM

I don't think this whole thing is going to get them any outstanding attention anyway. All that will happen is some booing when they're in America during the matches. The whole story won't even stand out, most likely.

I'm wondering how Canadian fans will react to Storm's comments. He's a heel, but is defending Canada a lot. So it could be a split reaction.

Oh Canada ... our home an native land ... LOL!!

Nanny · 06-20-2002, 08:04 PM

Well, I've thought about that too. And the only conclusions I've come up with is:

1) They're not going to do any televised events in Canada for a while. They've got two dates coming up soon, but they wont be televised.

or

2) It's just to keep the Canadian fans happy.

But I think the reason they did it is because it seems that Canadian WWE Fanbase seems to be growing, and they figured Canada needed some representation. Because they know that first of all, Canada will not boo for a Canadian, we're too proud of our athletes for that. SmackDown in Calgary was an example of that. Nobody gave a damn about Lance bashing Canada, and everybody cheered for Jericho. So I think it was something that they thought was kind of inevitable. It had to happen to keep their storylines going with the audiences reaction. Either way, we're gonna cheer for our guys (and gals) no matter if they're heel or face.

Old WCW angle that they're repeating with Storm ...
