I'm not sure that I follow your question very well (decorators are still a weak point for me), but, from the name of your class, you might be trying to override already done functionality. Take a look at tgext.crud, the TurboGears CrudRestController. Docs are over http://turbogears.org/2.1/docs/main/Extensions/Crud/index.html
If I'm wrong, I apologize, and will try to help (though I don't know how much help I will be).
