Showmasters Admin showmasters Posted October 14, 2013 Showmasters Admin Share Posted October 14, 2013 Latest Wrestling Guest Announcement - Montel Vontavious Porter (MVP) Attending: Sat/Sun Autograph/Photoshoot Price: £15 Pro Wrestling Illustrated PWI ranked him #23 of the best 500 singles wrestlers in the PWI 500 in 2008 World Wrestling Entertainment WWE Tag Team Championship (1 time) – with Matt Hardy WWE United States Championship (2 times) Half-man, half-amazing. That’s the boast former United States Champion Montel Vontavious Porter cribbed from hip-hop mastermind Nas to describe his particular talent in the ring. Indeed, at his best, the hottest free agent in WWE history seemed to posses abilities that were superhuman. But the onetime convict who fought his way out of a turbulent life of crime was as real as it gets. First introduced on the Aug. 4, 2006, edition of SmackDown, the cocky newcomer displayed the same bravado and bluster as NFL egomaniacs like Terrell Owens and Chad Johnson. That shameless self-promotion led WWE officials to sign MVP to the most lucrative contract in the history of the blue brand — a big money deal that inundated the Superstar’s early WWE tenure with questions of: “Is he worth it?” Although his unproven arrogance — not to mention the bizarre bodysuit he competed in — did little to endear him to the WWE Universe, MVP proved himself by surviving a vicious series of matches against the demonic Kane and grabbing the United States Championship within months of his debut — a title he held for an astounding 343 days. An ensuing rivalry with Matt Hardy became MVP’s claim to fame as the two Superstars competed in arm wrestling matches and pizza eating contests in a never-ending game of one-upmanship. While at odds, the foes unexpectedly won the WWE Tag Team Titles, putting two championships in the hands of MVP simultaneously. MVP was cheered on by WWE fans during his final years with the company as he enjoyed another reign as United States Champion and formed an impressive tag team with the mighty Mark Henry. Parting ways with WWE in 2010, he went on to compete in the hard knock rings of Japan, further proving that there was serious skill behind MVP’s swagger. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kuato_Lives Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 He's a good wrestling guest, I really enjoyed watching him on TV especially during that storyline with Matt Hardy where he kept saying he was better than Hardy at everything and they had all those little contests. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
