I dunno, I think Holly is very under-used in the company. He would be great in a major storyline and has the experience and presence to compete well.

And yeah she has some flexibility right there. Take that, Stacy.

[Jom]

I like Holly. He always gets a huge pop when he comes out. I also like his finisher (his reversal into it last night on Velocity was :eek:).

I understand that he works with the newer wrestlers and explains the company and the politics behind it, but he deserves a push for a title for something.

I also want to know when this lottery is taking place, dammit :mad:

[ChodaBoy]

There have been reports that it may not be a lottery, they may just trade stars.
I hope Hogan comes back on Raw, im staying up till 4.15am so he better had come on, or I wont be a happy bunny

[Jom]

Oh, he has GOT to make an appearance, considering there have been reports that he's going to be at MSG.

If they trade stars, then that's cool too.

I remember last year's lottery... it was my first (and only :-\) WWE show. Good times.

Some guy jumped over the guardrail and starting climbing on the apron during the HHH/Eddie match, but four huge black guys from security pulled him down after HHH kicked the guy in the head. The four huge black guys absolutely took it to the guy, and then was led down the aisle with handcuffs. It made me go :lol:.

[ChodaBoy]

Haha, someone did that here, and as he jumped they caught him in mid air. They tried to avoid showing it but the place that he did it had all of the camera's pointing towards it so they were caught out

Anyone remember Mean Street Posse? :lol:

[Jom]

I was pissed because I had my brother tape the show, but he didn't run it past the hour, he cut it off right at 11 (instead of 11:20 or so when the show actually ends), so when I got home I didn't get to see if that guy made it on TV or not.

[Frankenstrat]

I remember Mean Street Posse...well actually all I remember is Shane, some dude iwth blonde hair and i think Test was in it or i could just be wrong...

[Frankenstrat]

didnt shane do something with them though?

[ChodaBoy]

Yea, they were upper class people, the kind with rich dad's. Typical 1999 'jock' really.

[Johnny Five]

i think you all need to grow up because wrestling is lame.

[MaidenPumpkin]

i think you all need to grow up because wrestling is lame.

Thanks for the usefull input pal.

[ChodaBoy]

Im so desperate to go see it in June/July, but i dont know anyone that watches it

Phil is another guy added to the ignore list, people just dont think about what they post

[gaslight]

i think you all need to grow up because wrestling is lame.

I wish wrestling was as grown up as Bam Margera.

[ChodaBoy]

gaslight, what time is it now down under?

[gaslight]

I make it to be 9:20 AM.

10 minutes till the morning episode of Family Guy on Comedy Channel.

What time where you are?

[ChodaBoy]

00:21, i was asking because there are different time zones apparently in Australia, and i wasnt sure which you were in.

[gaslight]

That's true, I think Sydney standard time is GMT+10, Perth is GMT+8, and Adelaide and Darwin and GMT+9 or +9.5, something like that.

[ChodaBoy]

Sweet. Thanks to Anti for my new avatar aswell :thumb:

[Jom]

:lol:

No problem.

How do you change the gif size without stopping the animation? I'm not good with things like that.

I also missed Heat, was it any good?

[gaslight]

It's pretty easy to do in Adobe ImageReady as I recall, not sure what program you use though.

[ChodaBoy]

I use GIF Movie Gear. Theres a 30 day limit to it, but I make a load of avatars at one time so when it runs out, i have a big collection


Interesting news about Billy Gunn, he doesnt sound like the biggest HHH fan. And some sad news for everyone It is safe to say that there won't be a DX reunion anytime soon

[ChodaBoy]

:lol: Once again, thanks to Anti, everywhere I go people tell me how good my avatar is.

Hogan is confirmed for Raw according to Brum, I wonder how they are going to get JR out of the match tonight. No doubt it'll be a tag match :rolleyes: again

[RoCKinG STANTON]

Yeah Triple H againts Jr. Is it no rules or just a normal match?

[Jom]

:lol: Once again, thanks to Anti, everywhere I go people tell me how good my avatar is.

Hahahaha, really? Awesome, glad you got some use out of it :cool:

I didn't know how to shrink GIFs, so I'm glad that you are using it :)

Hogan is confirmed for Raw according too Brum, I wonder how they are going to get JR out of the match tonight. No doubt it'll be a tag match :rolleyes: again

You know, it's supposedly a super show, but there's what, no matches confirmed besides "HHH/JR" and Hogan being there to accept HBK's offer.

Trading? Lottery? Any SD! performances?

RAHHHH I HATE HOW 24 IS ON AT 9 ! :(

[Frankenstrat]

I was thinking... I never see any more hardcore matches anymore. Hell is there even a hardcore belt anymore?
Remember when it was online 24/7 and they would show matches everywhere, in malls, in play places, on the way to the car etc etc

[ChodaBoy]

Yea, 24/7 was a fantastic part. But sadly there isnt a hardcore title anymore. I guess thats something to do with the FCC or what ever their name is, and all of these stupid parents that dont think their kids should watch things like that because they may be influenced by it. but if they are influenced by it, then the parents are to blame for not being good enough, IMO

[Frankenstrat]

**** when did it die out?

[ChodaBoy]

Ages ago, the only place to see decent hardcore matches are Indy wreslting federations. TNA do it too, but they are scripted too much

[Jom]

I remember reading something about how when Mankind retired he retired with the belt, or about one of the Hollys not wanting to bring it back to disgrace it or something.

I dunno, the IC championship, in my eyes, is comparable to the US Championship. It's basically the midcarder's championship belt :-\

[gaslight]

Nah there's not, I think the removal of the Hardcore Division was a combination of safety, not having as many superstars who worked well in the matches, and considerations of television content that led the WWE to tone down it's on air violence.

They phased out the blood and violence to make room for more skinny ho's with implants.

[ChodaBoy]

/shakes fist at those dirty tramps...

Im so annoyed now, all over the country, stars are making appearances at different stores for autograph signings, they do it practically everywhere - except my city :upset:

[gaslight]

I hope Jericho doesn't get in trouble, he said in an interview that firing Matt Hardy "wasn't right".

Hopefully the WWE aren't that nazi over remarks their wrestlers make or Jericho might be next to go lol.

[Jom]

That could be as well, during the London/Kidman match two weeks ago on standard television, I was just waiting for the screen to go black-and-white because of all the blood. Any time there's a replay of blood on SD! (ex: Jesus/Cena PPV match), it almost always gets decolored.

So, do you guys think some trading/lottery-ing will go down on tonight?

I have to agree with Jericho, though.

[ChodaBoy]

Yea, i think some changes need to be made. Strangely, it used to be SD that needed the changes, but the past few weeks it has turned around. SD has had some good stories and good matches, whereas Raw is getting very repetitive. HHH comes out and whines, Batista comes out and beats him up, with a few extra matches thrown in.

[gaslight]

I've heard that Smackdown for this week has already been filmed, which hints that no there won't be. But that's just wrestlezone talking.

[Jom]

I know, people always bitch about how SD! suffers, but really, they have some intricate storylines, a revitalized cruiserweight division (that will be bolstered with new incomers such as Psychosis and Juventud), and some decent feuds.

I really hope for a Hurricane move to SD!. To me, his gimmick never gets old, and I like how he gives a mask to a kid in the front row.

[gaslight]

Smackdown is looking promising for the cruiserweights and tag teams, Raw needs more momentum again. The show was so strong heading into Wrestlemania.

[ChodaBoy]

I know, people always bitch about how SD! suffers, but really, they have some intricate storylines, a revitalized cruiserweight division (that will be bolstered with new incomers such as Psychosis and Juventud), and some decent feuds.

Yea, ive always liked Hurricane. Hes someone everyone can enjoy seeing no matter what age you are.I remember when he was with Molly Holly,that was pretty good, and when he was a news reporter :lol: .But when he came out with all that stuff directed at HHH, that was just pure comedy

[white_riot]

Nice avatar Choda :thumb:

[Jom]

Against Batista, you were wearing a mask ! But not like the mask that the Hurricane wears, oh, no no no... you were wearing a crimson mask, made of your own blood !

WHASSUPWI'DAT ?!

[ChodaBoy]

:lol: :lol:

The laugh he did during it was hilarious

[Jom]

Too bad he lost :'(

[ChodaBoy]

I feel a campaign coming on. Hurricane for WWE Champ, or like the signs at shows always say Hurricane for Prez... :lol:

[Jom]

Hahahaha, nah, he's sentenced to jobbing for the rest of his career, sadly.

Maybe a tag team championship with Rosey, but that'd be it. Or a US Championship if he gets moved.

[ChodaBoy]

I think he should actually be given a push, maybe for the tag titles or US title. He actually makes an impact when hes involved, unlike the Basham Brothers - Ohh sooo interesting :rolleyes:

[Daven]

i dont understand this thread. can someone explain it to me

[adrian]

Yeah, the Hurricanes speech on Raw was gold.. "For the last time you went toe-to-toe with the superhero.." He plays that character better than anyone could. Management should push him as a singles competitor, hes small but that shouldn't stop him. Speaking of small, I personally wanna see Rey Mysterio have a world title run somewhere in the near future..

Rey-Rey gets some of the best pops of any Smackdown night.. Give the little guy a chance.

Am I alone on this?

[Jom]

No, I agree, Adrian.

[Frankenstrat]

JR w/ Batista who didnt see it coming?
Chris Benoit missing the headbutt 30 seconds into the match who didnt see it coming?

[simplephotographinthesun]

each week hassan impresses me more and more

[Jom]

Vince just said a draft in about a month.

[simplephotographinthesun]

this masterlock challenge thing looks like an incredible waste of time

[Zmev]

WHATCHHHA GONNNAA DOO?

[Defender0FmetaL]

shawn michael pant is awesome

[Frankenstrat]

RAW was like a re run. Seriously first HOgan comes out and does the exact same thing he does at wreslemania (cool but repetitive) and then Batista powers out of the Pedigree.
Also the guy who competed in the masterlock challenge was obviously an actor. They really didnt fool anyone. WHo wears a huge *** white shirt (so hes easily recognizable) and is also so quick on the mic infront of several thousand people

[RoCKinG STANTON]

^^^^Yeah but it was funny how it looked like when the masterlock almost killed the guy. Yeah hogan chants for so long but everyone loves it. At wrestlemania he chanted for like 5 minutes. But everyone cheeed. Triple H will never land the pedigree on batista. Triple H! i am sick of this guy. what happened to the old triple h. the guy with the sludge hammer who kicked ***. not the guy that thinks he's better than eeryone else and relys on cheating to win. thats just my opinion.

[gaslight]

Of course he was an actor lol, they can't just take a random guy out of the crowd, there'd be all kinds of liability involved.

The Masterlock Challenge is just the Raw version of Kurt Angle's Gold Medal Challenge that they had on Smackdown.

It's funny the big deal they make about the Pedigree on TV, when I saw them live in Sydney, Triple H hit the Pedigree on Batista but it didn't put him down for 3.

[ChodaBoy]

The old HHH was better, when he had the 'My Time' music (the one with the siren kind of sound at the beggining). I think Batista vs. HHH will be one of those where HHH gets the pedigree twice but B kicks out, B does the powerbomb a few times and H kicks out, if you get what I mean

[Frankenstrat]

when was the last time stone cold steve austin was really involved in the plot. I remember way back to Austin vs The Rock but thats it, i did take like 3 years off from wresting thoug

[ChodaBoy]

I think it was 2002, cant remember what. But im not sure what exactly. Mainly in 2003 he was 'the sherriff' but that just meant he came out during a random match and beat people up.

[Frankenstrat]

i think thats what makes him so cool. If he was on every RAW episode hed get boring probably but he comes around once every couple months and wrestles maybe twice a year.

[guitarsuperstar]

jr crackes me up all the time, especially when he is getting his *** kicked

[Frankenstrat]

yeah that was the most boring match of the night

[Dave Version 1]

Of course he was an actor lol, they can't just take a random guy out of the crowd, there'd be all kinds of liability involved.

Actually, he was an independant wrestler from a local company... his name I've forgotten though. All the security guards etc. used on WWE shows are local wrestlers, because they know how to bump.

The Masterlock Challenge is just the Raw version of Kurt Angle's Gold Medal Challenge that they had on Smackdown.

The one main difference being, The Masterlock Challenge is a crock of ****.

[Dave Version 1]

Yeah, the Hurricanes speech on Raw was gold.. "For the last time you went toe-to-toe with the superhero.." He plays that character better than anyone could. Management should push him as a singles competitor, hes small but that shouldn't stop him. Speaking of small, I personally wanna see Rey Mysterio have a world title run somewhere in the near future..

Am I alone on this?

^ This man is a creative genius. ^ :D

[ChodaBoy]

Actually, he was an independant wrestler from a local company
I think he meant wrestler

[Jom]

You could see the blade in HHH's hand during the match last night, but that's the cameraman's fault, I guess... but he didn't try to conceal it or anything. Poor JR, he was getting his face torn apart at the seams.

[Frankenstrat]

yeah i saw it too then he put it in his shorts, although i thought it was like corn syrup or something other than real blood.

[Kardi The Lobet]

TNA is the new Bomb Wrestling...It has every one like Sting and Jeff Hardy, Jeff Jarret, The Road Dogg Jessie James...Etc...it BWNS wwe so hard

[ChodaBoy]

Its because it has those people that it doesnt 'BWN'. Even Kid Kash has recently slated it because they are paying so much money to 'has beens', Which I have been saying for a long time

[Frankenstrat]

when is tna coming to SPIKE!

[ChodaBoy]

It might not be, as far as I know, they still haven't made an agreement. Which is why there is alot of talk over whether they would get Raw's time slot on monday night

[Frankenstrat]

also I dont think they would be using real blood for the whole J.R thing because of medical reasons.

[Jom]

That's what I'm saying, HHH bladed, but he also had a pouch of something, because the blood was too runny for it to be real blood.

Still a pretty depressing shot of JR, though.

[Frankenstrat]

raw was really bad last nite thats all im saying

[Jom]

Viscera and Stratus, sitting in a tree, f-u-c-k-i-n-g...

I mean, he only really kissed her for about a second and then he turned away from the camera, but that was still rather wrong. I almost felt bad for Trish.

[ChodaBoy]

Did Hogan do the leg drop? I noticed that he didnt do it at WM which you would have expected him to do on his return. If he didnt maybe its fear of injury, as it can put strain on the back

I almost felt bad for Trish.
What are you talking about? Hes a hottie... :lol:

[Jom]

I think he did the Big Boot and that was it, but to be honest, I can't remember :-\

[adrian]

Hogan didn't do the leg drop at Wrestlemania OR RAW.. Wassupwitdat?!? The funniest part is how physically hard it is for him to raise the leg for the big boot.. :lol: Everyone can see him strain, and hes got a fair beer gut crankin' right now.. but still Hulk is Hulk and thats all there is to it. You gotta give the legend respect, even if he still insists on having a ten minute fan salute at the end of every segment hes in..

I think the Viscera angle is interesting.. About time he got a voice, I cant remember the last time I heard him speak (if ever!). He did a pretty good job, and he is pretty **** hot :naughty:

What was the story with the Heart Throbs?

[gaslight]

The Heart Throbs look like the next generation of Rico and that "gay" tag team that was Billy Gunn and someone else wasn't it?

WWE must be bringing in a new Tag Team for each show or something.

Hogan, lol, he looks so sad and old in the ring. But he's a legend all the same.

[adrian]

Yeah thats exactly what I thought about the Heart Throbs.. They ran out with their colourful bandannas, homo-erotic poses, and I instantly thought "Did Vinnie Mac re-hire Chuck and Bill?!?". Still, I believe they were entertaining.. and God knows RAW needs an entertaining tag-team, even if there in-ring skills isn't as good as their competition. These gimmicky teams are always good for a laugh..:lol:

Yeah, Gaslight.. Billy Gunns partner was Chuck Palumbo. Bill and Chuck..

[adrian]

http://www.thesmokinggun.com/graphics/packageart/mugshots/bigshowmug1.jpg

Stoner much?

[Jom]

The Heartthrobs gave me Ambiguously Gay Duo flashbacks. Maybe they'll be interesting, who knows. I do miss Rico for some reason, he was a funny guy.

As for Hogan, I feel sad about how old and worn down he is. How do you think that match is going to turn out? I think Hogan has to hit the leg drop, but I don't think he's going to be pinned or be the pinner... HBK is the one who has to be involved somehow.

[ChodaBoy]

Im not sure who will pin who, but there is no way they could ever let Hogans last match be a losing one. Anyone that knows absolutley anything to do with wrestling would agree. Even my grandma knows who he is, so its not as if they could let him lose

[Jom]

Your grandma is a badass, hahahaha.

I honestly do not think that this is Hogan's last match, though. He is bound to go out at the Chicago WM, and then finally be done with the company.

I do not think that Hassan will be pinned/submit on RAW, but that his team will lose.

The only other stipulation I can think of is that Daviari gets pinned, and Hassan goes on some shtick about how he wasn't the one that got pinned/submitted, so why does he face prejudice, blah blah blah.

[ChodaBoy]

"I am an Arab-American...this country is a racist..."


:rolleyes:

[ChodaBoy]

Apparently, Rene Dupree has been taken away for a while to let his gimmick fade, as they are preparing to give him a new one...

...No more Dancing...:upset:

[gaslight]

Haha, if it were up to me Rene Dupree would be taken out to the backyard and shot :p.

The draft should be pretty interesting when it does happen, and I'm looking forward to seeing Backlash :D.

[ChodaBoy]

The draft is expected after Judgement Day at the end of May.

I've just seen Raw, and HHH definately wasn't on top of his 'game'. The blade in his hand was so blatant, and his punches were so crappy

[Jom]

Maybe Rene won't have a horrific gimmick this time around. I guess this means that a La Resistance coming to SD! is out of the works.

I also don't like the rumor that Angle goes to RAW and HBK to SD!. That's no good, considering their rivalry.

[ChodaBoy]

They were thinking about making HBK (nearly typed HBL) a heel, but I seriously doubt that would work. He always comes off as a babyface

[UnDeRoAtHfAn777]

wrestling sucks now. i miss the good old days

favorite character: sting during his crow face paint, trench coat, and baseball bat phase
favorite match: hell in a cell -undertaker vs foley vs michaels(i think thats who was in it)
hottest girl: stacy kiebler during her secretary phase

[Jom]

Yeah, a HBK heel just wouldn't work... I mean, Angle's face turn a couple years ago was done rather well, but I think he's a much better heel, even though his whole shtick invitational is lame.

[ChodaBoy]

Yea it is pretty pointless. My guess is that they do it just so that he can wrestle, they wont want to let him do nothing because hes not got many years left and the fans will want to see him. And they probably cant find a story to fit him into, so this is the only way to involve him

[Frankenstrat]

Some guys you just cant turn heel, like STone Cold. Hes already a heel and everyone still loves him

[brensten32]

the best match would be
hell in a cell 10 man match
Batista vs Brock Lesnar vs Nathan Jones vs Kevin Nash vs Big Show vs Kane vs Triple H vs Undertaker vs Goldberg.
that would be hella good match. all the buff and big ppl.

[Jom]

Holy double post, Batman !

[ChodaBoy]

What actually happened to Goldberg?
I've got the video of him on his debut to WWE, the spear he pulls off is so poorly done!

[Jom]

I think he went to Japan to wrestle, but then that backfired, and now he's not doing anything except focusing on his acting. I think.

[ChodaBoy]

I take it you say acting, loosely. Lets not forget Universal Soldier 2 :lol:

[adrian]

Shawn Michaels could play a great heel (as he has done many years ago), and Angle could play a good face. I think if either of these, or both, are drafted it would be a good thing for WWE. Although its more than likely they would keep Kurt as a heel, to feud with Batista.. But Michaels over on Smackdown, becoming a heel again. That would be gold..

It would also change up the whole system, that we are all so **** used to. Not that the shows are bad or anything, I just believe any change will be a needed breath of fresh air. Hopefully, some of the mid-carders will be drafted and elevated during the next year.. Personally, I wanna see JBL drafted over to RAW. I also want to see HHH on Smackdown, feuding with John Cena. They could make that work really well, sure the actual wrestling wouldn't be the greatest, but the mic work would equal good ratings for Smackdown.

[Jom]

Thing is, I think everyone is sick of Trips being on the mic all the time...

[adrian]

Thats true.. But everyones been sick of it for a couple of years now, and that hasn't changed anything. The fact is, as long as HHH is around.. He's gonna be at the top. Hes basically a McMahon these days, and Vince will always keep him happy. (Just as long as he keeps Stephanie happy.. No, not in that way :naughty: ) At least if HHH is over on Smackdown, he will have some decent mic skills competition in the form of John Cena, Kurt Angle, Guerrero, JBL etc.

Over on RAW, theres only really HBK or Jericho that could compete with HHH at the moment. Give Hassan a year or so, and he will be up there. But at the moment, I believe HHH will find his competition over at Smackdown..

[simplephotographinthesun]

we can all thank the rock for leaving the WWE :p

[gaslight]

I heard that WWE management has more confidence in Cena than Batista and are considering having Batista and Cena swap shows.

That would completely suck.

The thing about the draft is that there are very people at the moment who could be put into a believable angle with Batista, who is being pushed as unstoppable for the moment.

Kurt Angle on Raw could play a great face role against Chris Masters and really put him in his place, but I'd rather see Masters fired.

Hassan needs a new gimmick, it's already gotten terribly old.

Edge V Benoit, last man standing, that's going to rock :).

[JAStewart]

I hope Edge wins. Is he still boo'ed? Is he still heel?

What we need is another Undertaker vs Mankind and Stone Cold vs the Rock(****)

[gaslight]

Edge has been getting a lot of heat lately for the whole Lita thing, but he is also scripted as a heel for the moment.

He plays one quite well, it's just that for him to get anywhere further he needs to have some better finishing moves.

[ChodaBoy]

And get rid of the paranoia, thats beyond lame

[adrian]

I think for Edge to get any better he needs to change his name, change his appearance, change his moves and become a totally different person.. :lol: Man, I get so annoyed at Edge.. Why they continue to push him is beyond me. There are so many more deserving guys on the roster than Edge.. Remember when he came back from injury and tried to be a babyface, but got booed because everyone was sick of him.. Did that not tell Vince that he is just not quality? Instead of trying to make him a believable "bad guy" they should just drop him down to low midcard, where he deserves to be..

'Nuff said..

[ChodaBoy]

Its probably just a 'pay back' type thing. Like they did with Benoit, there wasnt much need for him to win the title, they probably did it because of all his years in pro wrestling

[adrian]

Yeah, I understand the Benoit thing. But I think theres a big difference between his career and Edges career. I just dont think hes ready for any kind of push like this.. I wanna see Jericho get the push, or perhaps Christian. Captain Charisma gets a much louder reaction than Edge on any given night, unless of course they are chanting for Matt Hardy.. and even then its probably not as loud as Christians!

Where are all his MX peeps?? :lol:

[ChodaBoy]

I do like Christian, I find him quite funny at times. He and Simon in a conversation would be very interesting

[Jom]

/likes Christian

Kurt Angle on Raw could play a great face role against Chris Masters and really put him in his place, but I'd rather see Masters fired.

Hassan needs a new gimmick, it's already gotten terribly old.

/agrees with this post entirely

I hate Edge just because he resorts to continuing matches poorly after they've ended. The attacks on HBK in the back, Benoit with the chair, all his goofy facial expressions like he's going to **** his pants, carrying that damn briefcase everywhere he goes, etc... he's just horrible. I liked him more as a face on SD! for the very simple reason that he got cheered when he made his thematic entrance. Now, he's just a douche.

[gaslight]

I like Edge, he has tremendous potential and works very hard. Pity about getting Matt Hardy fired and basically screwing up the guys whole life, that's really low stuff.

All other things aside, they've stuck Edge with a bad gimmick for the time being, though it definately will go somewhere. He just needs some better moves before he can be a convincing world title contender, in the next few years people like Edge and Shelton Benjamin will be the bigger stars in the company.

[Erectile Dysfunction Smurf]

Yea, I think it is stupid. Sometimes its entertaining as a comedy though.

[adriansmith454]

they all have little willys.

[ChodaBoy]

I think that sometimes they can be unfair on the CW's, if they are given a good run, then they can make quite an impact. Like Rey back in WCW with the giant killing thing. Beating Nash, Bam Bam Bigelo

[Frankenstrat]

they need to bring back the Brood Crew

[Jom]

Who?

[ChodaBoy]

Gangrel, Edge, Christian

[Jom]

Ahh, I don't remember that. How long ago was it? :-\

This is their entrace, they rose up through the stage in a ring of fire, then at the ring Gangrel spat out "blood" from the goblet

[ChodaBoy]

:lol: :lol: :lol:

I've just seen the Lita/Trish thing. I thought Lita definately deserved it, the crowd were so loud when shouting "You screwed Matt" "Slut" "We want Matt". So I think Trish did very well to get through it, first time i've noticed her skills on the mic

[Jom]

Yeah, give credit to Trish for sticking that out and getting through the segment. Considering it was a live show, too. They can't really edit that stuff out, unlike on SD!.

Can you imagine if the crowd overtook the show itself? Vince would be pissed.

[Frankenstrat]

You suck......You suck...

p.s i forgot to ask why they moved the announcers table all the way back on raw?

[ChodaBoy]

Yea, I never understood that either. The Raw table movement is probably to do with Bischoffs control, its the same position as WCW. But I never knew why the table was there in the first place, it would mean the announcers see more

[Jom]

So, Matt Morgan's new gimmick is a speech impediment. Wow.

Interesting finisher, though.

[Jom]

Wow.

Are they trying to give Heidenreich a face turn? He's getting good pops lately.

[gaslight]

I think the crowd just find Heidenreich entertaining.

And yeah, the Brood were awesome. The blood bath spots were wicked.

That was so far back in the day that Christian had long hair, both he and Edge never even talked on camera, Edge still did the Downward Spiral, and Christian's finishing move was still called The Impaler.

But Gangrel is long gone now, I think him and Luna Vachon work the indie circuits together.

That was pretty funny. Trish has always had good skills on the mic. She is pretty funny to. I hope Mat goes to TNA now and reunites the Hardy Boyz

[simplephotographinthesun]

So, Matt Morgan's new gimmick is a speech impediment. Wow.

Interesting finisher, though.

bubba ray would be proud

[gaslight]

It was great when Bubba Rey dropped the stutter gimmick with no reason :lol:.

p.s i forgot to ask why they moved the announcers table all the way back on raw?

Heh thats awesome, now I can finally play and sing along!

[Frankenstrat]

Kane also had to talk using a microphone for a few years but it went away somehow

[ChodaBoy]

Voice changer?!
I remember when he was with X-Pac, and he spoke for the first time through it

[Frankenstrat]

yeah Kane, when he was my favorite, supposedly was burnt too and couldnt talk. I liked him better then, now he looks just retarded without a mask, long hair or any shirt on.
When i first saw kurt angle w/ a shaved head i was like WTF?!@

[ChodaBoy]

Holy shizzle! Me and a friend were so excited in college before. We were reading that at a house show in our city, its going to be Cena vs JBL vs Angle...

..With Stone Cold as the special guest ref!

Also its for the title, but its not as if they are going to change the title at a house show, the only time that happens if there is an injury

[Frankenstrat]

yeah rooting for the challenger of a title match at a house show is like playing the lottery

[simplephotographinthesun]

yeah Kane, when he was my favorite, supposedly was burnt too and couldnt talk. I liked him better then, now he looks just retarded without a mask, long hair or any shirt on.

agreed, they also need to bring back inferno matches

[ChodaBoy]

Inferno matches, Street fights - the REAL ones not the crap they have these days, 24/7 hardcore title, TLC. And make hardcore matches bloodier

[Frankenstrat]

remember the Rock Vs. Mankind in an I Quit Match at Royal Rumble way back when. Mankind got knocked out and as the story went the rock stole a soundclip of Mankind saying "I QUIT I QUIT I QUIT" and played the soundclip when he put the mic to mankinds head. That was one hell of a match
Also another one of my favorite matches
Stone Cold Steve AUstin vs Undertaker in a burried alive match!

[ChodaBoy]

Yep, they truely did have some amazing matches.

Anyone like Carlito?

if he cut his hair he would look more like a wrestler. That guy has like no intimidation with that American-Idol hair

[Frankenstrat]

I saw them both live through my scrambled PPV. I used to be able to pirate PPV's because they used to have them on Channel 29 (for me) and i used to get that scrambled. I couldnt really see **** but i could hear it 100%. Its great just hearing the sound or wrestler on floor and then the crowd going nuts

[Jom]

I think Carlito is a great mic worker, and he's pretty funny. I can't judge his wrestling, though, since I've only seen him twice or so.

I was laughing when he was working the hot dog stand on the one SD! show. I felt bad laughing, but come on, that kid probably got bombarded with free ****.

[ChodaBoy]

Imagine they didn't tell him that they were going to do it! His dad would have gone on a rampage :lol:

[MaidenPumpkin]

I just watched Beyond The Mat last weekend, good movie I'd say.

when mick dove from the balcony area onto the huge speakers...:eek:

[ChodaBoy]

My word, some English tv is terrible.
There is a new programme called 'Celebrity Wrestling', its two teams of 6 (D list celebs) against each other, with such poor skills.

The only good thing about it is D-Lo Brown and Joe Legend are the trainers for the teams, and Roddy Piper is the presenter. And apparently D-Lo is the 'Intercontinental Champion' :rolleyes: they need to reasearch before they make these things

[Frankenstrat]

I saw Road Dogg Wrestle last night on TNA. HE cut his hair too....

[adrian]

Dont think its been brought up yet, so I was wondering what everyone on MX thinks about John Cenas new Heavyweight Championship belt design.. You know, the ultra shiny, ultra gold, diamond clad, "Bling Bling" style spinner belt..? Whats your thoughts on it?

It looks kinda crazy.. I like it though. Its different and suits his character well. Thoughts?

[SickBoy]

As far as I'm aware, D-Lo currently holds titles in two continents.

[ChodaBoy]

John Cenas new Heavyweight Championship belt design.Whats your thoughts on it?

...:rolleyes:

Give it a few weeks, and he'll be a heel. His character isnt coming off with the fans anymore

[simplephotographinthesun]

i just found out nova and simon dean are the same person, WTF?

[Jom]

...:rolleyes:

Give it a few weeks, and he'll be a heel. His character isnt coming off with the fans anymore

Really? His whole "chain gang" thing seems to show otherwise, unless I'm missing something :-\

Nova = Simon Dean, WTF? [sic]

Shocking, I know... but it's true.

[ChodaBoy]

Did the booing when he won the title not give it away?

[ChodaBoy]

:lol:

I've just read this review. Its from the Michaels/Hassan match in Edinburgh, Scotland.

Shawn Michaels over Muhammed Hassan (w/ Daivari)
This match ended very quickly after the fire alarm went off! As it sounded, a security guard told Daivari they might have to evacuate, who passed on the message to Earl Hebner, Hassan and Michaels, who had a laugh about it.
I believe Daivari shouted something about it being a bomb scare.

[Alive]

Cena disgusts me. Hes not a bad entertainer but he can't carry the company. A 9 month title reign just to drop the belt to Cena? wtf?

Anyhow, I'm going to see RAW tomorrow in birmingham, its gonna be amaing. We've got third row seats or something.

[ChodaBoy]

Sweet, let us know what shirt you're wearing/poster you have and i'll have a look for you :thumb:

On another note, can you believe that its recorded in England, but we still have to wait till 2am to watch it

[Jom]

Did the booing when he won the title not give it away?

I take the stance that the audience was pissed that the match was so short, not because they don't like Cena... and rightly so that there were boos. On the biggest PPV, a less-than ten minute match for SD!'s most lucrative title is not appropriate.

Every time he comes out, it's to a huge pop.

[Alive]

Me and my buddy made a "Bring Back Owen" one. We'll probably get it taken off us though.

I agree with everything there. The match was very dissapointing as the main event for Smackdown's brand. It was too short, and didn't have any high spots, lack of false finishes.. just overall, not good.

But every week, Cena continues to get the loudest reactions of the night. He always gets cheered, the fans seem to really get into his character. I very much doubt he will be turning heel in the near future.. Sure, he's got the potential for a heel turn somewhere down the track, but not anytime soon.

My thoughts, anyway..

[gaslight]

Cena started as a heel, he'll go back to it one day but not soon.

The Cena and JBL was weak because the Christy and Trish match went overtime. Christy and Trish shouldn't have even been given a match at Wrestlemania.

Oh, and that move Matt Morgan did on Smackdown to win his match, I totally invented that ages ago.

[ChodaBoy]

Wrestling at school/home is always the best

[adrian]

I wasn't really a fan of that move that Matt Morgan did to finish off the match. Don't know if he just performed it a bit bodgy, but it looked as though the other guy was in control until the last second. Hmmm, didn't look as strong as his image would have liked :lol:

But, let me see it a few more times and it will grow on me. Im sure you are better at it anyway, Gaslight :D

[ChodaBoy]

I loved his gimmick. The stutter is very Bubba Ray Dudley, and makes people laugh. :lol:

We are the D-D-D-D-D-*D-von slaps him on the head*-Dudley Boyz

Yeah man he sucks at it, then again, he had to actually do it to a person.

[Frankenstrat]

I think i remember the first time I saw Cena and it was a few years ago actually. Some guy came out and started rapping to people and everyone was like WTF? I think the Rock told him to shut up or something. Im not sure if it was actually Cena but there was definantly a white-gangsta character that showed up in random spots that made everyone go WTF?!

[Jom]

Heh, it probably was The Rock.

"The Rock's going to take all your CDs and stick them straight up your candyass!"

[ICB]

Kane also had to talk using a microphone for a few years but it went away somehow

You know, I always wondered about that. I was like, "wait, he can talk? What the hell?" but then I remembered he used to be Issac Yankem, so it was all good.

I remember when he first came out and gave Kurt Angle a pretty good fight, he wasn't a wigger or anything. He looked more like a fag with those tight pink short-shorts than a tough guy :lol:

[adrian]

Remember his hair too?? I was like "WTF?" Turned to my brother and said something like "Look at this guys sh!tlocks!" They were like ratty little Twiztid style things :lol: Never thought he would become the leader of the Chain Gang.. Or the World Champion.

Still, when Batista came out with D-Von, during that whole priest gimmick, holding that box with the big chain around his neck.. And a bald head. Did anyone think he would become the Champ?
Hmmmm..

[ChodaBoy]

Nope. I missed most of what you are talking about there. There was about a year were I just couldnt be bothered watching wrestling

[white_riot]

Batista wont be at the top for long. He is 39

[MyNameIsJonas]

not into wreastling, never heard of any of em except stone cold and the rock.

[ledzep66]

What the hell?

:confused:

[gaslight]

Haha, I don't remember the old gimmicks of Cena or Batista.

And yeah, Batista is 39, but for a 39 year old he's in extremely good physical condition.

[adrian]

^^Thats true, I had no idea he was that old! I would have thought mid-late twenties for Batista. Still, he can go for another five years at least.. He looks to be in good enough shape right now anyway. If the Nature Boy can still do his three or four moves at his age, then we should have no problem..

Man, speaking of.. I used to hate Ric Flair matches but now I love them :D I know its predictable and all the same; A bunch of chops, getting back-body dropped, getting tossed off the top rope, doing his trademark fall down schtick.. But I find it entertaining nonetheless:thumb:

Whats everyones thoughts on the man?

[ChodaBoy]

Flair is definately a legend. It seems strange to think that hes around 56!, its as if hes been around forever. I find him very enjoyable to watch though, the crowd love to scream "Woo!" whenever he's mentioned

[Frankenstrat]

I missed RAW last nite what happened?

[ChodaBoy]

Im watching it now.

[Jom]

It was kind of a meh show, but the spots with Viscera and Trish were actually pretty funny.

There's a five-way tag match at Backlash:

Tajiri/Regal
La Resistance
Maven/Simon
Hurricane/Rosey
Heartthrobs

[ChodaBoy]

Omg, how embarrassing.

When Trish said "I'll have some bangers and mash" :rolleyes:
The crowd expressed their opinions there :thumb:

Lesson learnt, never stereotype us as Londoners

[ChodaBoy]

The North Carolina High School Athletic Association has fined South Mecklenburg and Providence $1000 each for a fight involving wrestlers from the two schools at a February event.

Reportedly, S. Mecklenburg's Colby Hardin defeated Providence's Reid Fliehr, son of Ric Flair. After winning, Hardin mocked the professional wrestler by celebrating with Flair's signature strut, causing Fliehr to charge at the winner. The fight did not escalate to a significant extent as wrestlers from both sides rushed to break it up.
----
All that I can say is...WOO!

[Iron Bug]

Does anyone else find the Intercontinental and US title matches more exciting and less predictable than the World Champion matches?

[ChodaBoy]

The Heavyweight matches probably aren't exciting because they aren't as fast paced as Ic and US title matches. The competetors in the matches are very different, HHH/Batista/Orton were all big built guys, where as IC wrestlers have smaller frames Shelton/Jericho, and therefore are more nimble on the ground and air

[simplephotographinthesun]

from what ive read, the TNA PPV was nuts

[RoCKinG STANTON]

I have seen the tna. it was nuts. it was amazing.
yeah didn't neone watch RAW last night. the one in england. where trish was on a date with that big *** black guy.

[Jom]

I don't watch TNA, but I read the reports.

How did that one dude just break his ankle all of a sudden?

[adrian]

I have seen the tna. it was nuts. it was amazing.
yeah didn't neone watch RAW last night. the one in england. where trish was on a date with that big *** black guy.

That guy would be Viscera. Yeah, I watched it.. I gotta admit that he is my new hero. I don't care how many people don't like the guy, or think hes just not cool.. But any guy that can look like him and say what he said in those segments with Trish, you can't help but love! :thumb:

I laughed when he busted out the roll of condoms, and when he danced! Bumping into the waiter, in his tuxedo with his blonde mohawk.. C'mon, the guys is classic! Thank god he's been given the mic time now! Whooo! :lol:

Anyway.. My top 5 on RAW right now are:

1/Christian
2/Viscera
3/Muhammad Hassan
4/Ric Flair
5/Chris Jericho

Thats in no order, just these guys grab my attention more than any others..

And that Christian/Flair segment.. Pure gold.

[Frankenstrat]

I wish the Rock would come back...

[ChodaBoy]

I thought the Viscera/Trish parts were pretty good, go Big V

I've just ordered my tickets for a house show in June, Stone Cold as the special guest ref, and Im on the front row of the first tier. I would have got floor seats, but it meant sitting on the back row

[gaslight]

Nice, as long as you aren't too far away.

[Frankenstrat]

Jeez the smackdown final match sucked, or atleast the part that i watched with show. I mean i know that most people who watch wrestling know its fake but I wonder if they even tried to make it look real for that match. The Angle slam through the table looked really convincing :rolleyes:

[JACKROXYOU]

jbl just got out of that ankle lock

[JACKROXYOU]

Jbl Wins!!!

[Frankenstrat]

ohh who didnt see it coming
RAW>Smackdown

[gaslight]

Once again, Matt Morgan steals my finishing move that I invented. All of you, when you see that, it's mine, okay?

And holy crap, Chris Candido passed away today.

[Frankenstrat]

this might be a stupid question gaslight but is that guy in your avatar from that MTV show Daria that was on a while back?

[gaslight]

Sure is man.

[Jom]

Trent \m/

Anyway, who saw Paul London take a shot to his sternum off the turnbuckle? That looked like that killed, I don't care how far you fall on top of that... but man, that guy takes a ton of abuse.

And yeah, that last match, for being a half-hour or so, was pretty pathetic. They foreshadowed JBL's victory (I mean, not like they have before) when Big Show said, "JBL, you're on a losing streak."

Oh, well. Backlash this Sunday !

EDIT: that was the guy who broke his ankle during the PPV, right?

[ChodaBoy]

Its free for me, plus im off the following day so I can stay up for it and not worry about being awake in college

[gaslight]

Yeah Chris Candido, broke his ankle, had surgery to fix it. Then he died (33). They haven't cleared up/confirmed the cause of death or anything yet.

[ChodaBoy]

It was a blood clot, his brother made a statement about it

[ChodaBoy]

You gotta love the big show though i mean his headbutts look killer :rolleyes:

[ChodaBoy]

I wasnt happy with Kurt and Calito's comments :angry:

Dats not cool

[rockerofnevada]

i only like all those chick wrestlers like trish stratis lita moly holly or whoever her name is but the rest is gay cause it's fake the only good wrestling is real wrestling

I agree.. :rolleyes:

[Murder Sheep]

Wrestling is like sex. First you do foreplay to get the juices flowing then you penetrate.

[gaslight]

Must be that time of the week again.

[Brew]

So...I'm thinking about getting a month's subscription to the WWE.com Jukebox thingy.

Its only about $4, which is about £2 for me...providing it works for us Brits?

[Frankenstrat]

i restarted watching wrestling about 2 weeks before wrestlemania (sometimes i was able to watch both RAW and Smackdown) but now I think im going to stop again. ITs just missing something and i have alot of stuff goin on anyway right now

[Brew]

The one thing that its missing these days is:


Decent storyline writers.

[ChodaBoy]

They've just brought in a 'Hollywood' writer, so hopefully he can make it more spectacular. Although he might not have too much wrestling knowledge

[RoCKinG STANTON]

^^^yeah a new writer might bring something better to the table. buts lets hope he does have wrestling knowledge.

[Brew]

They've just brought in a 'Hollywood' writer, so hopefully he can make it more spectacular. Although he might not have too much wrestling knowledge

He has Zero knowledge of the wrestling world.

Also, I can't use the WWE Jukebox with my Solo card.

Hmmpf.

[ChodaBoy]

Does it have to be a credit card?

[MattyBlade]

wwe was good back 8 years or so ago. now it's just lame.

edit: WWF**** wwe was never good.

[Brew]

Yep.

Is it me, or does your avatar move slower these days?

[ChodaBoy]

Yep.

Is it me, or does your avatar move slower these days?
Kif edited it the other day so that it has the Union Jack behind him, I guess that affected it.

And MattFromCanada, I would have thought you had been here long enough to know not to come in and moan

[MattyBlade]

Why can't someone make a wwf thread then? I'll go in there and not moan

*loved Royal Rumble 1994 :p

[ChodaBoy]

This is a WWF thread. they changed their name, whats the difference?

[gaslight]

The new writer will probably suck, he worked on crap like 90210.

They need people like Paul Heyman on the creative team, people who actually know what they are talking about.

[ChodaBoy]

Vince Russo :thumb:

Although with the history between him and Vince McMahon, I couldnt see it happening

the godfather was pretty **** fly

[gaslight]

The guy who came from the crowd to join in with the post-match celebrations with Hulk Hogan was infact New England Indy referee Holyoke Joe.

Joe spent $5,000 on the tatoo which enabled him to win a contest and meet the Hulkster down in Tampa.

This him?

http://www.strangecosmos.com/images/content/11701.jpg

[gaslight]

Yeah, same tattoo.

He should have picked something that allowed him to keep his shirt on.

Jesus.

[ChodaBoy]

It was pretty funny when HBK slapped him on the back, he just wobbled

[gaslight]

Hehe.

The ending of Batista v HHH seemed a bit sloppy. Didn't feel resolved like a main event usually does.

[ChodaBoy]

***POSSIBLE SPOILER***



Its not been confirmed yet, it most likely will be on Raw. But a Hell in a cell is supposed to be on at the next Raw PPV, which should settle it, as this is how HHH usually ends a fued. The poster for it has been leaked which shows HHH and Batista surrounded by the cage, but knowing WWE, they could change it to spite us internet folk

Also did you notice that Batista was booed during his entrance? People dont really see him as a main eventer anymore, they were happy when he beat up HHH but that was because they are sick of him winning

[gaslight]

Yeah, I've read about that as well.

They really need to get Triple H out of the main event spotlight soon, he's getting tiresome. No judgement on his mic skills or in ring ability, it's just that he's been in the spotlight for so long, they need a main event storyline that is ??? and ??? rather than ??? and HHH.

[ChodaBoy]

100% true.

Give him a year break, I say.

When he tore those ligaments in his knee against Jericho, that left him out for a long time. And when he made his return, it was quite a shock and he made quite an impact if I remember right. I think that was the time when he had "My time" as his entrance theme - great song.

[mantx]

omfg this thread is still alive

[gaslight]

Well observed.

[blackout]

Hows RVD doing these days? Is he even still wrestling?

And what about Kevin Nash and Big Show? Are they still around?

[ChodaBoy]

RVD is out injured until the summer.
Kevin Nash is in TNA, but doesnt do much.
Big Show is still in WWE but doesnt do too much either

[white_riot]

Backlash wasn't that great. when will batista lose the title. wwe is starting to give me the sh'its.
