A great ECW Heel

[TheBadazz]

I think VKM needs to put Muhammad Hassan back in the ring. He would be a great ECW heel. What do you guys think?

He's not coming back, he quit the wrestling business.

To me the whole muhammad hassan thing is very unfortunate. Mark Caponi, his real name, was an outstanding character. He is full blooded Italian if anyone didnt know that. Last i heard hollywood was trying to snatch him up for some acting gigs. To me he was the best heel in a long time. Would love to see him back someday though.

No, he went to Hollywood looking for work. He hasn't been successful yet, as far as I know. I do know he auditioned for a toothpaste commercial, which he didn't get.

He was one of the best created heels in a long time, I hope that one day WWE and Mark can come to terms on bringing the character back.

I knew he was Italian, very weird to have him play an Arabic character when he isn't even part of that culture.

He was one of my favorite characters as well and was pretty pissed when he left. Just his music made me start cracking up.

Man if he had gotten that job you know that commercial would have been all over the net with the smarks dubbing in his entrance music...... would have been amazing I tell you.

He needs to go TO TNA, in wwe THEY RUINED HIS CAREER, the guy was doing what he was told and then got the shot in the head when UPN/other folks realized what wwe pulled with "terrorist" like characters helping hassan was too far. If you didnt know, HASSAN WAS NEVER MEANT TO BE A TERRORIST he was basically supposed to be a AMERICAN MUSLIM speaking truth about the USA society after 9-11. But Vince had to go and test waters he should had never tested specially after 9-11 and Copani ended up paying the price.

Then wwe wanted to send him back to OVW?, hell no said copani i made to the top and i need to start over?, hell no and he quit, he was never fired.

Re: A great ECW Heel

yep... but his heart was never in the wrestling business to begin with... He obviously has the acting bug and wrestling was they way of expressing it. I wish more people saw his final promo that they played on wwe.com....

It was grand... He was like "So UPN and the critics think they were Arab terrorist... THEY WERE WEARING SKI MASK! HOW DO YOU KNOW THEY WERE ARAB???" Damn WWE and ruining the great Hassan... he was my favorite wrestler at the time...

No, that's Daivari. They repackaged him. Hassan (Copani) is gone.

No, that's Hassan's former partner Daivari.

Re: A great ECW Heel

I think it'd be very smart to hire him back and have him join the Full Blooded Italians as an Arabic character.

But that would kind of defeat the whole purpose of it being the Full Blooded Italians if he were to play an arabic character in the group wouldn't?

Considering that the ORIGINAL FBI's whole schtik was that most of the members were obviously not Italian, no.
