WWE- Where it all begins again

[Reply #40 on:]

Never heard of him. But I hear this Carlito Cool character just made his debut and win the US title.

[Reply #41 on:]

I like this Gene Snitsky.  He certainly beat the hell of Kane, something I haven't seen done to Kane in a long time.

I like how he made his point about fighting back since Kane said he was a dead man.

In a way it really wasn't his fault for Lita's baby dying.  Think about it, if Gene haven't used the chair on Kane, then Kane would've done to Gene what he did to Shawn Michaels.  I feel sorry for Lita's lost, but Kane was the one who brought her to ringside.  You don't bring a pregnuant woman to the ring anyway.  But now that this pregnuant storyline it done, when can Lita get back to wrestling?

[Reply #42 on:]

I love the Kane/Snitsky feud.  Is Kane a face because Snitsky killed the baby of a woman he raped and forced into marrying?  Is that sympathetic.

[Reply #43 on:]

I just heard John Cena was attacked at a night club.  Is this true?  I mean this isn't part of a storyline?  This reminds of 1995 when Shawn Michaels was attacked by nine thugs.  I always wondered if that really happened or was that part of the storyline?

[Reply #44 on:]

You know it kinda does. WWE seems to be playing the same storylines they did 10 years ago.

[Reply #45 on:]

I'm convinced that the storylines just go in an endless cycle. You'll be seeing a Kana/Katie Vick type angle in about 5 years.

[Reply #46 on:]

WWE Canada are such shit stirers. They're trying to stop TSN (the same network that airs RAW) from picking up TNA: Impact. The two companies present a completely different product and aren't even in direct compition with each other. I don't know what WWE Canada has got up its ass.

@ Nasty: Simon Dean's Gimmick = Body Donnas, but that was more like 8 years ago.

[Reply #49 on:]

3 Lead Pipe
4 Tyson Tomko
5 Loser gets his head shaved
and I forgot what else.

[Reply #50 on:]

I know it's still going on right now, but did anyone get the PPV. I would have seen it but it's not in theatres. >_<

Survivor Series will be though. Hopfully it'll be a good one.

[Reply #51 on:]

It better be. Along with Trips and JBL losing the Raw and Smackdown titles respectivly. I hope.

[Reply #52 on:]

It's good that the voting didn't even last one full day.  Good job on that, WWF.

Oh, while I haven't/nor will I/ see the ppv tonight, apparently Michaels might be seriously injured.  There's something wrong with his knee, yet again.  So that blows out his chances tonight.

I'd like to see HHH v. Benoit, even though Beniot won't regain the title.  I'd be more interested in seeing Michaels v. heel Edge, but that's just me.

Is it just me, or is Gene Snitsky awesome?  The 'I accidentally killed your monster baby' storyline makes him a face in my book.

[Reply #53 on:]

Hey, I hope you don't mind my jumping in here... I wanted to ask about Tough Enough. Last week a coworker of mine(also my brother's girlfriend's brother - my age) went out to California as one of the final 50 contestants... I wonder if they'll show anything soon about it, and when they'll cut it to the final, what, eight?

...if he makes the final group, isn't the winner decided by fan voting? If so, vote for Matt Miles, you nerds. Root for the little guy(and at 5'9", he's apparently the smallest one they picked).

What's better is the fact that he actually beat Kane last night. I'm not a big fan of the storyline, but I think Snitsky and Kane are doing a good job of working with what they were given.

Edge and Benoit are the new Tag team champions. I'm actually interested in seeing where the WWE goes with this.

[Reply #55 on:]

Shelton Benjamin is now the new IC champion. Good job, Benjamin.

But I was wondering if who won between Eric Bischoff and Eugene.

[Reply #56 on:]

Dammit. I didnt see the PPV. Fucking Yankee game kept me occupied.

Can some one spoiler me the results of the matches?

[Reply #57 on:]

Well Edge costed HBK the World Heavyweight Title and
Orton beat Flair in the Steel Cage match. I don't know whatelse happened.

[Reply #58 on:]

Kay, thanks dude.

[Reply #59 on:]

Eric Bischoff is bald and Gene Snitsky beat the hell out of Kane.  I liked Taboo Tuesday.

[Reply #60 on:]

Eric Bischoff's bald!? I must see this.

[Reply #61 on:]

Wow, it's like 1999 all over again.

[Reply #62 on:]

Exactly. I remember when he had silver hair and now this?!

You got that right.  I just saw Raw and Edge's speech reminds me of Bret Hart's speech back in 1997 when he turned heel.  And Edge hates Shawn Michael just like Bret Hart.

[Reply #64 on:]

HBK seems to have that kind of appeal with Canadians.

[Reply #65 on:]

Bret Hart was a huge icon for many Canadians, he even came number 39 in The Greatest Canadian TV special. While I respect HBK as a wrestler, I think all Canadian wrestlers and fans harbour some ill will toward him.

[Reply #66 on:]

Will Booker T ever win the WWE Title?

[Reply #67 on:]

I hope not.

I'm still waiting for Kane to win.

[Reply #68 on:]

I think Simon Dean was Nova in ECW.
I'm pretty sure John Cena's stabbing is a story line, just because of the way their going along with it, making it seem like Carlito was in the club that night, and might have had something to do with it.  Plus John Cena is doing a Vince McMahon movie called "The Marine" and I predicted, he'd be taking some time off soon.

Taboo Tuesday would have been alot better if it had both rosters involved, and there were more than 4 options (with the exception of Y2J's match.)  It seemed like the choices were set up with a choice that was known to have a winner, like Shelton dissin' Vince, I was about to vote for him after that, it seemed like something Stone Cold would do, and we all like Stone Cold.

How come the Survivor Series has 8 men elimination mataches instead of 10 men?  I remember the very first Survivor Series had 10 men elimination matches, then as the years went by they had 8 men.  Just recent as 2001 to now they went back to 10 men elimination matches.

[Reply #70 on:]

Are you referring to the Eddie Guerrero and Kurt Angle match?  If so, then Theodore Long said for Kurt and Eddie to choose two more members making it, Eddie, RVD, Rey Mysterio, and the newest member The Big Show, and another person of Eddie's choosing vs. Kurt, Luther Reigns, and Mark Jindrak, with two people of Kurt's choosing, making it 10 people.

[Reply #71 on:]

I thought Eddie had chosen The Big Show to be his new partner, and Team Angle needed one new partner making it 4 on 4. It even says at WWE.com that this year's will be 4 on 4.

I remember in the mid 1990's they used to have 8 men elimination matches for Survivor Series, what made them go back to 8 men?

[Reply #72 on:]

Because their morones.  They think they have to make everything stink.  What's next, a 10 man Royal Rumble?  I hope not.

[Reply #73 on:]

What about this new match at Survivor Series?

Chris Benoit, Chris Jericho, Randy Orton, and Maven vs. HHH, Batista, Gene Snitski, and Edge.

The winning team runs RAW for a month.

I hope Evolution doesn't win.  I remember back at the end of 1999 and early in 2000, HHH had control of the company and that sucked, because it was boring.  I hope the WWE doesn't repeat that mistake.

What is it with Vescera?  He was on Smackdown and now on RAW?

[Reply #74 on:]

I wouldn't be surprised if Viscera, Gangrel, et al were fired after their little stink with the Undertaker.  The WWF has been going through some house cleaning, of late.  Just today, for example, Billy Gunn, Test, and Albert were all let go.  About time, too.

[Reply #75 on:]

I like Test back before they cut his hair and called his fans "Testicles"
But that Raw Survivor series match sounds half-A$$ed at best, Edge and Snitsky on the same team as Triple H?

As far as Gangrel and Viscera being back, I LOVE IT.  They should bring back some more people from the past, like Shamrock, Steve Blackman, and Gilbert.
"Gilbert, Gilbert, Gilbert"

[Reply #76 on:]

Is it just me or is the Simon Dean storyline being handled really well? The "Slam of The Week" was "sponsered" by Simon Dean this week, which I thought was awesome.

[Reply #77 on:]

WTF!!!!!!!!

The WWE released Gail Kim, Chuck Palumbo and Nidia from their contracts. 

Why is the WWE firing so many people so quickly?  I loved Nidia, both she and Gail Kim had potential.

Chuck Palumbo could've had a better push.

[Reply #78 on:]

WWE, goes on a "What have you done for me, lately" with their wrestlers contracts... That's the only reasoning to the firing of these people and people like Billy Gunn.

This is one of the reasons I don't watch that much wrestling anymore.

[Reply #79 on:]

The company's not doing so hot, so they're cutting out the dead weight.  Billy Gunn, Albert, Test, and Chuck Palumbo all had numerous shots at making it to the big time and none of them stuck.  Billy Gunn got routinely pushed like 3 times every year and got no fan reaction.  Same with Albert.

Test and Palumbo I feel sympathetic towards, even though they had big pushes, but in terrible ways.  Test could have been something after the HHH/Stephanie thing, but HHH just killed his career deader than dead.  Palumbo, well, he never impressed me that much, but he was a solid guy.  He should find work somewhere else.

Gail Kim is a terrible wrestler.  Nidia is a surprise, because she's as talented as a woman's wrestler can be in the WWF, plus she has an appealing character.  The women's divison is almost dead now, but it's not like anyone cares about that.

Personally, I think the next cut will include Val Venus, Stevie Richards, and possibly Gangrel/Viscera.  Right now, the WWF is doing what they should have done years ago...just dump the late 90s guys who can't draw and aren't doing jack for business.
