Cena's Promo was pretty good

[Pills]

Good for him. The people liked him. Regardless, RAW still sucked last night, it was the huge disappointment only followed up by Carmelo gettting what he wanted and getting traded. I thought can this night get any worse?!

Im actually still pissed about it and didnt the Undertaker fuck up last night. I mean the door opens and I actually didnt think it was him, the guy looked to be short and fat with long bushy curly hair. I thought it was really going to be someone else, then he steps and you see him and all of a sudden he is standing on the stage. OK. But where did he go then? then he reappeared.

HHH in my opinion is just a spotlight stealer. I still think he will hang around long enough to win more world titles then Flair.

Everyone know he is married to Steph and have 2 or 3 kids, have an angle where he tries to knock Vince off to take over the company.

Actually, rumor has it that it will be streak vs. career. While it'd be stupid to let the whole Sheamus thing go without a blow off, it's not like HHH has to wrestle anymore. I sincerely doubt that he'd get over.

Thought he'd be the anonymous GM, though. Wonder where they'll finally end up with that. Maybe make it Cole the whole time?

Sheamus is in the dog house, so I wouldn't expect him to do anything with Hunter.

My god the politics in WWE is beyond silly. It's amazing how they rather shoot themselves in the foot for no logical reason and throw away potential big money.

All because one faggot (Kevin Dunn I believe) thought that when Shaemus ran from NEXUS it ruined him. Like WTF.. most ppl dont even recall that happening. Its your job as a writer to build him up instead of dwelling on your own bad writing. So stupid.

Me being one of them...and I watch Raw every week lmao. But it really is true, imagine if they actually had some damn writers with THE PEOPLE'S ideas. One can dream.

In the new WON, Meltzer says about Tough Enough that there are more scripted storyline plots a la most of reality TV (the original T.E. was not scripted)...and former ROH guy (briefly I guess) Matt Cross is one of the participants on the show.

Also one of the participants is Ms. Rima Fakih who won one of those international beauty pageants.

[Warner2BruceTD]

Austin Aries was turned down for Tough Enough.

The irony with that, is he is a better worker than 99% of the roster, and is a better promo/personality than 90%.

I can't fathom how they would take Matt Cross, who isnt half the worker as Aries and cant cut a promo to save his fucking life, over a world class guy like Aries. And Cross is actually smaller than Aries, so nobody can blame size.

Don't get me wrong, I like Cross (he is a former gymnist, who does crazy shit in the ring and is very good), but he doesnt measure up to Aries in any way.

Finally watched the WWE's 50 Greatest Superstars doc (downloaded it via torrent).
What a fucking disgrace.
Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair and Kurt Angle got jobbed.
Most of the top 10 I could live with, but Flair, Hogan and Angle should have been in it.

IMO, Flair or Hogan should have been #1.

I'd love to see a documentary like that done by impartial sources.

And Killer Kowalski #50? Really? Really?

Depends on the criteria. Biggest star? Best worker? Combo? Lists like this are hard to be critical of unless there is criteria.

And Kowalski trained HHH. Did you really think he'd be left off?

[manchild24]

I doubt the WWE ever lowers someone from the rafters after the Owen Hart tragedy

Yeah, I thought the same thing after I hit submit. What I would have thought been cool was when UT did the throat slash, the lights go out, everyone would think it was UT doing his thing but then when the lights come on, Sting is standing in the ring with the bat.

Why would you put an established guy like Aries on the show, a show that promotes an up and comer, especially an established guy - like Aries - that would blow everyone away in every aspect on the show.

If you are going to get Aries, you don't put him on Tough Enough.

He'd win the world over with one bubble pipe promo to a reality TV camera.

[JayDizzle]

The need more midgets to throw around and get injured.

Might as well bring back the Midget division they had on SmackDown a while back and make Big Show their Champion.

Battle Royals every night with the outside surrounded by tables so every time Show chokeslams somebody, it gets a pop.

WWE expected to formally announce the signing of Mistico at a press conference in Mexico City today.

They may also announce RAW will tape a TV later this year.

:eek:

 

Wrestleview.com's Doug Lackey is live in Fayetteville, North Carolina for tonight's TNA Impact tapings to air March 3 and 10. During the taping for next Thursday (March 3), Sting made his return to the company and defeated Jeff Hardy to become the new TNA Champion. Sting wore a new outfit with red sequins and had an old school look. Sting hit the Scorpion Death Drop and scored the clean pin.
