Don't Let Sid Near The Scissors- Wrestling Thread

Page 20, new thread.

Here was my last post in the previous thread:

Angle will only be working about 24 matches a year in TNA as opposed to the 150 matches he worked a year in the WWE. That's less than one sixth of his previous workload, plus TNA only goes on the road 4 or 5 times a year, so he'll be able to settle down. If he is absolutly hell bent on wrestling, TNA is probably a good choice as long as he's making some half decent money. Now he'll still be able to wrestle, try to improve his health a little, spend time with his kids, and hopfully be able to save his marriage. I just hope he sticks to some of his more technical mat based stuff and doesn't hurt himself.

I do however think he is to old to get into MMA.

He'll work fewer matches, but he'll be more driven to put himself in danger because TNA needs him more, plus he can still do indy dates, and he wants to do MMA and TNA simultaneously.  He's still putting himself in grave danger every time he in the ring, and doing fewer dates won't fix his problems - just alleviate them slightly, if he takes the right precautions. 

If he just sticks to working TNA dates with a safe, bump-free style, he might be okay - but there's no reason to believe he'll do that given his past.

Raw has opened without any house lighting, and it's making for an awesome visual image.  I can't imagine competing a match in near-total darkness is very safe, but it might be interesting to see.

I like the name of the thread.Not too many people will get the reference. 

[Reply #3 on:]

WCW fans didn't get it when Bischoff mentioned it twice.  That was a great moment.

[Reply #4 on:]

For something more obscure, mention Sid and the squeezie.  Or Sid, Master of the Squirrels.

Sid was a first class nutcase.

[Reply #5 on:]

Speaking of the squeegie, everyone should buy the Pillman set now.

[Reply #6 on:]

Eric Bischoff is pissing everyone off.  His book may seem interesting to read.

TNA will go to 2 hours starting in Nov.

[Reply #7 on:]

I may be 100% wrong, but from what I understand, TNA well be in primetime starting in November. They will have a live 2 hour special when no new UFC programming is planned the same night, but the rest of the time Impact will still only be an hour long, only in a much better time slot. From what I understand, this is Spike TVs idea of giving them a trial run for a 2 hour show.

[Reply #8 on:]

TNA's new deal doesn't give them a weekly two hour slot, but if they perform well in it, they might be given one.  TNA issued a statement about Angle's health today, saying that they've had "his team" of doctors check him out, while another team cleared him to wrestle.  They also apparently now have a wellness policy, and will presumably stop singling Raven out when mentioning drug use in TNA.

[Reply #9 on:]

It's cool seeing IRS, Ted DiBase and Arn Anderson guest appear on RAW.  Cena vs. Big Show vs Booker T.  All three champions facing each other is great. 

Vince McMahon was on Byte this and he's disappointed that Kurt Angle is not taking time off from wrestling.  He's not disappointed that Kurt went to TNA.

[Reply #10 on:]

The Horsemen reunion was the coolest thing on WWE TV in forever, and Angle's Impact interview just further confirms that he shouldn't be anywhere near a wrestling ring right now.  He was slurring a ton of words, and I'm sure he slurred more in the full interview they presumably did.

[Reply #11 on:]

I just voted on two mtaches for Cyber Sunday.  They involve Cena vs. Booker vs. Big Show and DX vs. Orton/Edge.

[Reply #12 on:]

Kurt Angle made is ring in appearance on TNA.  I got to say he headbutted and Angle slammed Somoa Joe.  Angle's new music was kind of corny.

[Reply #13 on:]

Angle flag cape rules, and I'm glad that they're doing Joe-Angle so quickly, since they really can't count on him living until the end of his deal is up.

[Reply #14 on:]

Dude, I loved TNA this past Thursday.  Abyss vs Angle was great.  Cage was Rhyno was awesome. The James Gang dissing DX and Vince was hilarious.

[Reply #15 on:]

The Voodoo Kin Mafia stuff is just sad, but it's hilariously sad, so I love it.  Angle's "Lunatic Fringe" theme rules TNA, but it's a shame the Joe-Angle match was so disappointing.  The Piper set is $15 until tomorrow at CC, and it's got a bonus disc with KING CURTIS.  Buy this set.

[Reply #16 on:]

Bad news everyone. One of my all time favourite wrestlers, Rowdy Roddy Piper, has cancer. Hang in there, hotrod.

[Reply #17 on:]

GET WELL HOTROD

Dude, Cryme Tyme rocks.  They're like Harlem Heat, Los Guerreros and New Age Outlaws all rolled into one.  Too bad to hear that Big Show is gone.  That sucks.  I was hoping they were going to have Great Khali vs. Big Show.  What's the deal with Paul Heyman?

[Reply #18 on:]

I was just watching a video of the time Chris Jericho beat Goldberg back in 1998. Classic stuff.

[Reply #19 on:]

Seeing Kurt Angle beat up Don West was hilarious.  It's strange that WWE looks the other way when VKM issues a challenge to DX and Vince.  And they get pissed when VKM talks about invading their headquarters.  WWE did the same thing with WCW. 

[Reply #20 on:]

Joey Mercury got fucked. Anyone else see that?

[Reply #21 on:]

No.  I watched some Goth dude beat the shit out of a guy in a speedo, though.  And two of the ugliest men I've ever seen lose a really one-sided tag team match.

Hi, I'm new at this.

[Reply #22 on:]

Clicky

He didn't get his hands up to protect his face like he should have, and the ladder fucking destroyed his nose. It's pretty sick. I hope he doesn't miss too much ring time, because MNM are a great team.

[Reply #23 on:]

Dude, Smackdown was good.  I really like London vs. Kendrick.  I think they are one of best tag-teams WWE has.  I just realized that London has let his hair grow, which is weird.  I remember when he had shorter hair with he teamed up with Kidman.  Does anyone know what Kidman's doing nowadays?  I'm surprised he's not working with TNA as of yet. 

On TNA that Angle and Joe brawl reminded me of the days between Sullivan and Benoit. 

Snitski is going to ECW and I heard they plan to make him like a Kane/Abyss character.  ECW needs a tag-team divison.  ECW seems to lack big stars.  Lashley's a great champion, but I wish he had more competition.

[Reply #24 on:]

So, Umaga lost to Cena, and Kali is on Raw. I LOVE THE WWE!!!11111 *Cries*

[Reply #25 on:]

Wow. I remember wrestling was REALLY popular with 14/15 year olds when I was that age (about 3/4 years ago now). Ive got some of the games for ps2 (Smackdown vs Raw)and the really early one for ps1. Anyway, thats not what I came on this thread to say. I'll probably kill this thread, so sorry, but I saw this show called Celebrity Deathmatch last night, and its like fights between celebrities made out of plasticine (Paris Hilton lost to this other women) and Bam Margera (woo!) vs Tony Hawk. Anyways, Bam's plasticine uncle came into the ring, only I was shocked to hear our lovely Mr Dimaggio's beautiful voice come forth-he did a good job, no mistaking him though. Move this if its in the wrong place like, just tied in with the whole wrestling thing if you know what I mean.

[Reply #26 on:]

Sorry *is aware of brutal murder of thread*

Whatever happened to Matt and Jeff Hardy? I liked them best *puts on shades*...

[Reply #27 on:]

Let's see...

Jeff Hardy is the IC Champ and defends the title on every RAW.

Matt Hardy is a solid mid-carder on Smackdown - he and Jeff had a hellacious tag match against MNN last month on a PPV.

[Reply #28 on:]

Are they still like, rocky-type people? Like, do they still dress in black and stuff? Ooh, thats good, I liked them best when they did tag teams and stuff. Hmm, you'll have to remind me what MNN is....

[Reply #29 on:]

Monty Brown in ECW?  That could work.  I'd like to see him take on RVD or Bobby Lashley.

[Reply #30 on:]

I cum across this link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxZWjJyw3rg  the other day, Warriors Uconn speech, a lot of ye have probably already seen it anyhoo I'd skip about the 1st 33 minutes, starts to get funny around there.

I got a good laugh out of the gems of wisdom like "Queering doesn't make the world work".
I used to hate warrior as a wrestler and as a human being he seems to be a piece of shit too but he is too funny to hate, gotta love it when retards believe they are intellectuals

[Reply #31 on:]

Oh Wanky, you ain't seen nothing.  The artist formerly known as Jim Hellwig and now known as Warrior is a complete nutjob.  He's the type of nutcase who gives Conservatives a bad name.  I fully expect to see him on the CNN one day, holed up in a cabin in Montana raving about the New World Order, Democrats, Queers and Communists.  Ted Nugent will probably be sharing the cabin with Warrior.

Sad thing is, I met Hellwig way back in the days of WCCW - he was known as The Dingo Warrior (pre-WWF and Ultimate Warrior days) - he was a flaming nutcase way back then.  We blamed the drugs, but it seems that's his true personna...




A pic of Warrior on C-SPAN informing us of the evils of *whatever*

And it's also a sad day.  Bam Bam Bigalow was found dead in his home this morning.  The last I heard, Bam Bam was looking at some jail time for driving a motorcycle with a suspended license, no insurance and involved in an accident that severely injured his live-in girlfriend.

I never met him in the ring, but Vader told me that Bam Bam was as tough a SOB he ever met.  High praise coming from Leon White.

Rest In Peace, Scott Bigalow - you gave us some entertaining matches over the years.

[Reply #32 on:]

The Warrior looks like he's still doing drugs.

RIP Bam Bam :[


The WWE is firing a lot of people including the following:

Tatanka
Sylvester Terkay
Christopher W. Anderson
Jazz
Rodney Mack
Tony Mamaluke
The Bashams (Danny and Doug)
Al Snow
The Gymini
Gangrel

I'm surprised they fired Tatanka and Sylvester Terkay.  Terkay had so much potential and without him how will they push Elijah Burke?

Most of the other wrestlers I haven't seen in the ring for a while so it's not that big of a deal.

Christian Cage is the new NWA World champion.  I'd like to see Kurt Angle or Joe get the first title shot.

[Reply #33 on:]

Forgive my ignorance; I only know of wrestling from PS1/2 games and the occasional show I have watched. Is Jazz that woman who was in it agggges ago?

[Reply #34 on:]

Okay... This proves it.  Warrior is beyond being a nutcase.  This is his real ebay site.  The fact he wants 500 uSD for action figures of himself is proof that Hogan dropped him on his head one too many times, but read his comments.

[Reply #35 on:]

How much for a Ralph Snart action figure?

[Reply #36 on:]

How much money do you have?

[Reply #37 on:]

More Warrior goodness.


Warrior rapes Christmas.

WTF?
That white stuff dribbling down santa's arm is strangely familiar

I sent a best offer bid for $10 for all 10 warrior action figures. No response yet. My guess is that he doesn't know how to use eBay.
