Dude...Batista is champ...=/

[007]

Dude...Austin is bald...=/

[Legendary.]

Dude...Orton is a-ficially ready.

[King Goldar]

Yay. I forgot about voting for the Divas' Halloween contest. I made it over as the PPV would have been starting. I voted for Mickie and I'm glad she won!! I also thought Lena, Tiffany and Katie Lea looked pretty hot.. but Mickie's costume was amazing!!

[Bella4ever]

The only good thing was Batista and Undertaker winning.

[007]

The worst thing was batista winning! It was unexpected but wrong superstar! He's had one too many shots at that title.

[Legendary.]

Evan Bourne vs Matt Hardy easily the match of the night. Even saw some heel there in Matt Hardy for a little bit. I think it'd be better to have Matt go heel at this point. He was awesome as Version 1 and imagine if he slowly brought that back...Ah.

As for as ECW looks the difference between Face and Heel is pretty much one sided. Heels have more competitors but Boogeyman is set to return so we'll see how that goes.

Once again awesome job Evan Bourne. =]

[TheRoyalKnight]

i wish Boogeyman becames a heel lol and kidnaps hornswoggle

[chriz]

The worst thing was batista winning! It was unexpected but wrong superstar! He's had one too many shots at that title.

I agree.

I think Y2J's reign should have been longer. But I will disagree that it was unexpected. If someone has 10000000000000 title matches I expect them to win at least 1 LOL.


But the way Batista won was stupid. Batista was the face and Y2J the heel yet Y2J was screwed out out of his belt? That makes no sense at all.

Let's see how many times he was screwed in one match :

- Austin made it so he could loose his belt via count out and DQ
- HBK's Slow count
- Austin trying to stunner him so when he reverses Batista can do his finisher and win

and so much more. He had 2 people help him in part JBL hit HBK as ref (so He was taking out a ref that refused to count for him) and Orton helped only to be stunned.


It makes the face look weak if he needs to screw the heel out of the match and the only person not screwing people? The god damn Heel of the match. Every fan knows heels cheat faces don't unless they have an eddie type gimmick. Reversing that goes against the idea of heels and faces and thus what wrestling is built on.


Worst parts to me :

- Y2J vs Batista (see above)
- the miz , Morrison vs Crime time (I hate the miz and crime time)
- Finding out next p.p.v Cena returns (GOD DAMN IT! I thought we got rid of him)
- The ref not counting to 10 when undertaker went through the table and clearly did not get up. (I wanted taker to win, he's my favourite but come on you count to 9 and he's not up? then 10 follows. I hate **** ups like that)
- Mickie winning costume contest. (I hate diva voting stuff when they vote for the face to win when a lot of other divas had better costumes e.g Princess Layla was genius , Katie Lea as vampire was great. Who wins? the main diva face, It's too predictable) *I voted online for Victoria for comic reasons*
-Jeff vs HHH again (how many times can we see this?)

Overall it was another bad p.p.v

[Ao Ultimate]

I can honestly say the only WWE PPVs I order are the big four: Royal Rumble, Wrestlemania, SummerSlam and Survivor Series. I'm kinda glad I didn't order this one becuase I've heard a stated above that alot of people disliked it. As for Cena returning I think its good, hopefully he'll actually do something this time rather then just be "title-shot this" and "title shot that" but that'll probably be what happens. I also agree that Jericho should've kept the title but I'm sure that WWE has something good planned...hopefully.

Rappers Sue WWE & John Cena Over Cena's Theme Music

TMZ.com is reporting that Jamal Grinnage, Eric Murray and Daryl Pittman (Lil' Fame, Billy Danze and Pittman from rap group M.O.P.) have filed a federal lawsuit against World Wrestling Entertainment and John Cena claiming that John Cena's song, "Time Is Now" borrows heavily from their hit song "Ante Up." The official court documents can be read here.

In lawsuit claims that WWE's lawyers actually found somebody to sign off on the license who was only a receptionist and did not have authority to sign anything.

The biggest point of actual musical contention is one non-English line, "BRRR Abado", that appears in the original song once, and in Cena's theme song three times. Grinnage and Murray are seeking for the destruction of Cena's theme song and $150,000 in damages from the defendants. It's possible WWE may have to stop selling any WWE DVDs featuring Cena's music and edit the music out of all footage they intend to broadcast in the future.

No word yet from Cena or WWE.

TNA star Booker T has plans to picket a Houston sports bar called Vito's Deck House because he believes they discriminated against the Christian faith.

On Sunday afternoon, Booker T and Marty Wright (a.k.a. WWE star "The Boogeyman") went to the sports bar to watch an NFL game. Wright, who was wearing the cross, was asked to take it off by the bartender, or leave. According to the bartender, it was a violation of the bar's dress code.

Booker got upset and asked to speak to the manager. The manager explained that it was a violation of the dress code. Booker asked where the dress code was posted at, and as it turns out, it wasn't posted anywhere. Booker refused to leave and told Wright not to leave.

Police were called and they told Booker and Wright to leave the premises. Booker said he saw two other patrons at the bar wearing crosses and they were not approached by management and told to leave. Although, the two patrons left the sports bar when they saw Booker and Wright being kicked out over Wright wearing the cross.

Booker has a protest scheduled and he hopes it gets as much publicity as possible to inform people about the sports bar suppressing people's freedom to express their belief in God.

Show Opening:
Big Show is in the back rubbing his neck. He coughs and says he had Taker beat, but Taker was a coward and used the banned submission hold. He says if their paths cross again, he;s not going to knock Undertaker out, he’s going to bury him.

Vickie and Chavo are then seen nearby. Vickie wished us a Happy Halloween and says she has plenty of tricks and treats. She says that by one we know that Undertaker will be in a casket match. She says he will know what it is like to be trapped inside and will gasp for air and his brains will explode from the fear of knocking that this is his final resting place. She then announces that the man who will subject Undertaker to this is Chavo Guerrero. Chavo looks very scared as she says this, and then leaves as Vickie cackles manically.

For example the first Rocky movie is just hutting theatres over there. He then explains that there were a bunch of those movies, and in Rocky 4 they bring in a Russian. A big mean Russian that beats everybody up and thinks he’s the king. But at the end of the movie, the American kicks the living crap out of the Russian.

Smackdown kinda was good and boring at the same time...I wasn't too impressed with that much. I'm interested though to see how ECW holds with out Evan Bourne.

RAW's 3 hour show is this week starting at 8 o Clock so you might have to skip JF this week if you've seen the finale.

Anyways hope the 3 hour show has more than 5 matches=/

[GoldPhoenixRanger]

They'd have to skip the JF Finale to see the Raw anyway, as TV.com says the Two part Finale is at 9pm.

-GPR

[007]

Well I got verizon fios, so Im going to dvr JF and watch raw :)

[DaiRed]

Skip Jungle Fury? Are you mad man! It's the finale! Besides, I've managed to pull off watching Raw and Power Rangers at the same time for 4 years.

[Legendary.]

The finale was online for a while I'm gonna skip JF and watch Raw=]

[TheRoyalKnight]

Raws hardly been worth watching im going to check out JF

[007]

Well Im going to watch RAW, its a 3 hour special episode celebrating the 800th episode which is the only show to ever do that and its all 3 brands on one show, one night. So im expecting a RAW/SD/ECW confrontation.

EDIT:

-- WWE Hall of Famer Mae Young has been called to appear at tomorrow night's three-hour edition of Raw in Tampa,

-- The USA Network is running a commercial promoting this Monday's 800th episode celebration of Raw saying Stephanie & Shane McMahon will be on hand to determine if Mike Adamle should be fired from his position as the General Manager of Raw. Also, Vince McMahon noted in his call-in to Bubba The Love Sponge's radio show this morning that Stephanie & Shane would be on Monday's Raw to confront Adamle. This will be Stephanie's first live television appearance on Raw since last December's 15th Raw anniversary show.


----------------------------------------------------

Cant wait to see mae Young take her clotehs off! YUMMY YUMMY YUMYMY! XD lol.

Do you guys think Adamle is going to be fired?

[King Goldar]

I really want to see Jungle Fury, but WWE comes before anything, LOL. I'll catch the the re-runs later on.

Can't wait to see Mae Young get down! It's gonna be sad seeing her without Moolah by her side. *sigh*

[Legendary.]

Adamle isn't going to be fired because Shane and Stephanie reveal Orton has been cleared to wrestle for over a month...and then Adamle puts him in a match against CM Punk which Priceless run in on and beat Kofi and Punk down (kofi tries to make the save).

Or atleast that's how I see it it ;)

[007]

I kind of need to go on a rant here, but I'm sure this'll make good conversation. John Cena. I am getting so sick and tired of this guy. Mainly because everytime he comes back from an injury or something, he automatically gets a title shot. Back in 2007 when he had to vacate the title he held for 13 months because he got injured, he returns during the Royal Rumble match and wins, getting a title match! Now with Survivor Series coming up, he's returning and getting an automatic World title shot against Jericho...AGAIN! Please WWE, some of the fans are getting so sick and tired of seeing Cena either winning the title or keep getting title matches. Put him on some midcard matches for awhile for god sakes. Please tell me I'm not the only one who feels this way!

[King Goldar]

No, you're not. I hate John Cena! I can't stand Cena or Batista!! I was so glad when Jericho got his title back, and I hope Cena doesn't get it at Survivor Series!

If any former champ should get it back.. I say Orton!!

As for Jeff, you can tell he's turning. I think I will like Jeff more as a heel though. :D

Eve wants to actually "wrestle"? *in shock* Someone wake me up now! A Diva wanting to do something she was brought on to do... after a year of doing nothing! Oh, my! ;)

Finally glad to see the Bella mystery come to an end and hope to see some good matches between them and Natalya and Victoria.

Maria vs. Michelle? Hmm. Can't stand neither one, but if Maria can get the title from McUgly I say go go for it, LOL.

I guess that would leave sweet Maryse as Eve's jobber! Ughh!!

[TheRoyalKnight]

Turning Point is going to be great

and now to WWE Zeke is impressive he is powerful and im hopeing for him to get more Mic time he can be a future World champion

You're right and I feel this way too but John Cena vs Chris Jericho will be miles better than JBL vs Jericho and Jericho vs 'Tista. I see this as a smart move in the eyes of Vince. It has some story to it already with Cena being the reason Jericho had to "leave" Raw in the first place. While everyone does hate Cena for his intsta-pushes you cannot put it besides the guy, he's over one way or another. He can draw a reaction from any crowd, whether good or bad. Plus he can preform. If he keeps his poopy jokes away from the match I'm pretty sure it'll be interesting to see how Jericho sneaks this win away. The bad part about all this is that while Jericho will still be champion (there is my prediction) after Survivor Series, Cena and Batista will be involved in the title scene.
So boooo=/

No, you're not. I hate John Cena! I can't stand Cena or Batista!! I was so glad when Jericho got his title back, and I hope Cena doesn't get it at Survivor Series!
He won't=]

If any former champ should get it back.. I say Orton!!
Soon my friend...soon.

As for Jeff, you can tell he's turning. I think I will like Jeff more as a heel though. :D
From his recent stuff on this past friday's smackdown...It will interesting to see how Jeff handles working the heel the heel role. I do how ever notice that since Jeff was and still is over as a face, he's going to be more like a Tweener.

Eve wants to actually "wrestle"? *in shock* Someone wake me up now! A Diva wanting to do something she was brought on to do... after a year of doing nothing! Oh, my! ;)
Finally glad to see the Bella mystery come to an end and hope to see some good matches between them and Natalya and Victoria.
Maria vs. Michelle? Hmm. Can't stand neither one, but if Maria can get the title from McUgly I say go go for it, LOL.
I guess that would leave sweet Maryse as Eve's jobber! Ughh!!

The whole Smackdown Diva division is in shambles...Although I know Eve has been training for quite some time, I'm interested to see how much she's picked up. Poor Maryse=/ I liked her. I still do and I think she has potential to be a nice little heel diva if they keep her in the mix.

Michelle vs Maria...nothing to say. It will suck no matter when or how the match comes out. The only thing interesting about the match is who will win it. We all know WWE has been shaping Maria up to LOOK like a contender.

All I can say for the Divas Division on Smackdown is...Let Natalya and Victoria do something other than look stupid and beat up by Twins...damn.

Turning Point is going to be great

and now to WWE Zeke is impressive he is powerful and im hopeing for him to get more Mic time he can be a future World champion

Zeke isn't going to be doing anything special anytime soon. Not until Kendrick wins the U.S title some point. :] I mean he was the longest running WWE Champion in the WWE Championship Scramble ;)

By the way ladies and gentlemen. Betty got me hooked on EWR. It's like GM mode but way better. Currently I've got Chris Jericho as my WHC, Triple H as my WWE Champion, and Elijah Burke as my ECW Champion. Edge just won the Royal Rumble and apparently found religion in real life...in my game. lol

[TheRoyalKnight]

Legendary whats EWR?

[GoldPhoenixRanger]

EWR = Extreme Warfare Revenge, which is a wrestling GM Mode style game created back in 2002. It is part of a full series, but is arguably the most popular game in the series. The current games in the series are caled Total Extreme Wrestling, the 2008 edition of which was released back in July. The game can be purchaced from www.greydogsoftware.com for $25. Further information on the entire series can be found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extreme_Warfare/

[Legendary.]

EWR though is free which makes it 10 X better plus it has Roster updates and it's easy to pick up.

[TheRoyalKnight]

[King Goldar]

All I can say for the Divas Division on Smackdown is...Let Natalya and Victoria do something other than look stupid and beat up by Twins...damn.

Amen! I really like the Twins but Natalya and Victoria have too much potential to be wasted and loose every match.

[007]

Well I watched TWF today and I must say I was impressed. Some great matches they had.

[DaiRed]

And I forgot to mention this about Cena as well: If Cena wins the WHC, what do you think he's gonna do? That's right. He'll bling it up just like he did to the WWE Championship. If a disgrace to the championship, that they made it the official design, and that Triple H even wears it. If he decides to make a pimped out version of the big gold belt, it'll be an insult to all who held it before.

[Legendary.]

Well thank god he did it to the WWE Championship then right? Here's the thing though the WWE and wrestlers after John Cena had the choice of changing the image of the belt back. They did it with the US title. WWE and doesn't wanna change it for some reason. =/

[007]

Breaking News for TWF: Vini Vidi beat Big Bad Billy Goatetsky!!!! Hes the #1 contender!

[TheRoyalKnight]

Turning Point is going to be great the 10 man X divison match,Styles and Sting is going to be a highlight MCMG should win the tag titles they remind me of the hardy's i rather see Team 3D there since what happened in that ladder match(I have a feeling thats going to lead them to joining the Main Event Mafia).

[Legendary.]

Two brightspots for the WWE.

Reports are saying that Gail Kim was introduced to the Divas in a meeting as the newest Diva.

Also rumors have it that Christian Cage could be heading back to the WWE after tonight. Tonight could be Chris Cage's last TNA appearance and they could even have him say goodbye tonight...

If both are true. WWE snagged two of the hottest free agents for both sex's. How awesome?

[007]

Christian! CAPTAIN!! CHARISMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PEEP SHOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry christian is one of ym top fav wwe wrestlers of all time.

Newest Diva? She was there before, and was the Women's Champion. I hope they give her back her old entrance music and everything.

Hopefully this time Christian will get some respect. He's a former NWA Champion now. But if they give him a world title before Jeff Hardy...

SHR
Christian! CAPTAIN!! CHARISMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PEEP SHOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry christian is one of ym top fav wwe wrestlers of all time.

Remember what Austin use to call him? A CLB?:cool:

Monday Night – November 10th, 2008 - United Kingdom

Show Opening:
[The show opens with footage of last weeks Steel Cage match]

Batista comes to the ring to start the show. He says he isn’t here to whine and cry about last week, he is here to invoke his rematch clause. He says he came here tonight to win back the WHT and that’s what he’s going to do.

Stephanie McMahon appears on the screen from WWE HQ. She says that unfortunately it isn’t possible for him to invoke his clause tonight. He says that her brother made it very clear that the winner of last weeks Cage match would face John Cena at Survivor Series, and therefore he will take on World Champion Chris Jericho. She says GM Adamle resigned last week, and that as such this is the dawning of a new era here on RAW. She says that she and Shane would like to put a stamp of finality on some long standing issues. As such, tonight Kane will face Rey Mysterio in a No-Disqualification match. Also for the final time, World Heavyweight Champion Chris Jericho will take on Shawn Michaels…… in a Last Man Standing match. She thanks us for our time, and thanks Batista for being so understanding.

[Randy Orton’s music hits and he comes to the ring]

He says he just wanted to let Batista know that when it comes to the title shot, he’s going to have to wait in line. He says that John Cena gets his opportunity at Survivor Series, but then its his turn because he is better than Batista and always has been. He says that 4 years ago he was kicked out of Evolution because he was better then them. He says Batista couldn’t beat him then and he can’t beat him now, therefore if anyone deserves a title shot, it’s him and not Batista. [The fans chant RKO] He says that he just wants to let Randy know that history is written by winner and that if you look at their history, he has been better than Randy in every shape and form. He was better than Randy in Evolution and he’s better then him now. He then challenges Orton to a match to settle this thing once and for all. He says that the answer is yes, but he should know that when he wins the title back he’s going to remain champion a lot longer then eight days. Batista then grabs him and goes for a Batista Bomb but Orton escapes and leaves.

- Commercial Break #1 -

[When we return, we see the Smack of the Week. It is footage of the battle royal last week in which William Regal won an Intercontinental Title shot.]

Santino Marella and Beth Phoenix come to the ring. Santino says that he is so confident that he will remain Intercontinental Champion that he has done away with the Honk-A-Meter. He then premiers the Honk-a-Perfect-Mountie Meter. He says that the combined title reigns of the Honky-Tonk Man, Mr. Perfect, and The Mountie was about 123 weeks. He has been champion for 13 weeks. Therefore, in 2 years and 4 months, he will break that record. He says that the tea sipping, hair cut like a Jonas Brother, … [Regal’s music hits and he and Layla come to the ring]

Match #1: IC Title – Santino Marella vs. William Regal:
They lock up and Regal unloads with right hands in the corner. He takes Santino down with an elbow and then throws him to the mat again. He goes off the ropes, hits a running knee lift to the temple knocking Santino out, and picks up the win.

Michael Cole steps in the ring and asks him how it feels to once again be IC champion. He hesitates and then says that he will be proud to wear that championship with the pride and dignity of an Englishman. He says he will also be very proud to take the spirit of each and every one of them from the United Kingdom, all around the world. He says hes very proud to be a loyal subject to her Majesty the Queen. But most of all he is truly honored to be our Intercontinental Champion.

- Commercial Break #2 -

Backstage:
Kane is in the back next some dangerous looking devices, bathed in a red light with his music playing in the background. He says he wanted to welcome Shane and Stephanie back to RAW. He says there is something about Shane that reminds of his inner child, back when he used to pull the wings off insects. He says picking on Rey reminds him of this. He says that he never wanted to be liked by his brother, by the McMahon’s, and certainly by any of us people. He says that tonight he will destroy Rey Mysterio and he can assure us that he will enjoy it.

She says she can’t believe he did that, and then leaves.

- Commercial Break #3 -

[When we return, we see the WWE Rewind. It is footage of last week’s Cage match]

[When then see footage of John Cena’s premiere on RAW, as part of a promo for his return]

Jericho comes to the stage without music. He says that it’s a heartwarming story, but he wants to tell him another story, the Batista story. He says that Batista was the man that put Cena out of action and the man that Jericho beat in a Cage match last week. He says that then he can tell him the story of Shawn Michaels. That’s the one where he exposed HBK and all his fans for the liars, cheaters, and hypocrites they are and then drove his head through a television monitor. Then, he upped the ante by punching HBK’s wife in the mouth, accidentally, which he may make light of now, but that’s because it’s the only way he can deal with the fact that it eats him up inside. He says that tonight is the Last Man Standing match, the last chapter in the sad story of Shawn Michaels. He says that Cena should pay attention, because he is going to meet the same fate as HBK. He says that Cena is just coming back from a major injury, which means his chances aren’t good. He says that he will beat Cena just like he beat Batista and prove that he is the rightful World Heavyweight Champion.

Orton says that DiBiase was the weak link as he lost the tag titles for them, eliminated them in the battle royal, and then was stupid enough to interfere in Orton’s match. He says that he did to DiBiase what they didn’t have the guts to do. He says that they can go around telling people that they are the future all they want, but the fact remains that they aren’t in his league. Rhodes slaps Orton in the face and Manu has to keep them apart.

- Commercial Break #6 -

[Legendary.]

Not articles but Spoilers :]

[007]

Really!!? Cool! :)

Also whatever happened to the Ultimo Dragon?

[PuroresuNexus]

Really!!? Cool! :)

and wtf TNA legends title. Thats gay.....the only one who deserves that is jeff jarret.

Also whatever happened to the Ultimo Dragon?

Ultimo Dragon? He's still wrestle and he's one of the best Jr. Heavyweight legends in Japan. Recently, Ultimo Dragon did had a battle against another legend, the original Tiger Mask (real name: Satoru Sayama)

[TheRoyalKnight]

Cage is in talks with Tna also but WWE is ahead Ledgends title is a crappy name the belt has a old school look/feel to it and i dont think Jarret is at ledgend staus MEM is though lol

[007]

Cage is in talks with Tna also but WWE is ahead Ledgends title is a crappy name the belt has a old school look/feel to it and i dont think Jarret is at ledgend staus MEM is though lol

Lol no one in MEM deserves that other then Sting. Plus its TNA legends. Jeff Jarret has done alot more then Booker T has.

[TheRoyalKnight]

Kevin nash-the man who carryied HBK

Booker T(A 5 time five team WCW champ and a one team wwe champ

Steiner-(a tag team ledgend)

[Legendary.]

It really seems to me that only Booker T deserves that title. He's a 6 time world champion.
TNA just needs to not overshadow the rest of the company due to this feud. I'll be tuning in tonight. I wanna see me some Beautiful People.

[007]

Kevin nash-the man who carryied HBK

Booker T(A 5 time five team WCW champ and a one team wwe champ

Steiner-(a tag team ledgend)

Lol it aint WCW it TNA. Your just naming the accomplishments of what they did in other companies? You ahve too look at what they've done in TNA.

Jeff Jarret-TNA is basically his. If it wasnt for him you wouldn't be watching the damn show. Does anyone remember the The Kings of Wrestling? yeah that was TNA's Evolution.

Aj Styles and Christopher Daniels wuld be two more who could actually deserve the title. Those two defined what was the X division was all about.

[TheRoyalKnight]

Tna really had no one else to carry the belt when Jarret had all those regins AJ was still growing as a wrestler but now TNA has grown with talent and no need for JJ

[007]

NO NEED!!!! NO NEED!!??? Thats like saying no need for Undertaker or Stone Cold in WWE.

And yes there was some people they had Abyss and also yes Aj was growing, but back then there wasnt a TNA Legends belt and now there is and plus now hes friggin awesome. I mean come on his finisher has to be one of the best you've ever seen. And may I add that back then there was no need for a legends belt seeing as it was just the beginning of the company you dont become a legend in 24 hours lol.

[TheRoyalKnight]

JJ is a solid guy he is no Nash,Sting etc the MEM is going to be the first Super Faction of TNA with Team 3D going to join em sooner or later,and look at the origanals and the new guys they got Creed,Letal,Morgan,Abyss,Eric Young(Im enjoying his serious side),Beer Money the list goes on and then Elijah Burke

[007]

MEM is just a faction of all the maineventer heels. it ain't like evolution who had a variety. For examply at the time they had Main Eventer(HHH), Legend(RIC), Randy orton(mid carder), Batista(rookie, body guard guy). MEM needs somone from the X divisiob.

[TheRoyalKnight]

what was the NWO/WolfPack MEM has the chance to be one of the top faction and this whole Respect angle has been good,and im starting to gain new favorite wrestlers with the young guns but MEM is my most favprite all time faction im hopeing in the E the new evolution faction is going to be good

[007]

Lol nWo was riduclous. They ahd one too many members it was almost the whole roster. That aint a stable, thats a friggin nation or empire. Same goes for Corpate Ministry. Way too big of a stable to have but i sitll dont know i will start wtahcing TNA mroe and see what the MEM is capable of.

[TheRoyalKnight]

they only got 5 guys there better than the Nation of domination and heck ill say It DX

[007]

Dont you ever say its DX!!!! NEVER! EVER in a Ortillion(ortons number) years!

[TheRoyalKnight]

Dx Members

HH-Married to boss daughter(Gets what eh wants when he wants)
HBK-Ok i have no big problem with him
X-Pac-Who? lol never did anything otuside of DX
Rodd Dogg-Seriously the start of the white rapper gimmick
Bill Gunn_Cute Kip gay gimmick are you serious

[Legendary.]

Kurt Angle, Booker T, and Sting are carrying the M.E.M. (Booker T was never WWE Champion by the way). Kevin Nash has a few good matches left in him but no direction for his character besides the M.E.M. Scott Steiner while still a bit impressive has nothing left in terms of Wrestling, he's just made of muscle now. He can hardly sell moves properly and his best move is a belly to belly over suplex. I'd be more impressed with "Big Poppa Pump" if he used the Steiner Recliner again.

You're going a long way by saying they are better then the best faction in professional wrestling's history. While I will say that their total accomplishments do outshine those of all 3 incarnations of Degeneration X, they still do not have the right appeal. I do not see anyone going around saying "M.E.M" or whatever their catch phrase is. No matter where you go if you find a wrestling fan they will all know of Shawn Michaels and Triple H. They will all know the words Suck It...M.E.M is consisted of a bunch of Main Event guys who all have different agendas. Sting wants respect from the younger guys, Booker wants to prove he's a legend, Angle...shit I don't even know what Angle is, Kevin Nash is doing what he thinks is right, and Scott Steiner is a hit man for them. DX was a rebellion, doing what ever they wanted, when they wanted, how they wanted. Main Event Mafia, a good faction yes, better than DX no.

[TheRoyalKnight]

its a tough debate MEM has just started and maybe after awhile they let certain new guys join or atleast Team 3D i think Nash and Steiner are on there last legs the other three cans till put on solid-Good matches

[007]

Ger- Four Horsemen are better then the MEM. yes they are old now but they paved the path for guys like Kurt, Booker, Sting, Steiner, Nash. Plus the Horsemen were old school and thats a reason why I like the horsemen.

Friday Night – November 14th, 2008 – United Kingdom

Show Opening:
[The show opens with footage of last weeks tag team main event]

The Undertaker’s gong is heard as the show opens. There is a casket in the center of the ring and the blue lights are on. Undertaker’s voice can be heard. He says that some men are born into the darkness in all its fury. They are the true bringers of punishment. Then he says some foolishly come looking for the darkness, blind to its fury. He says he is the punisher full of darkness and Big Show has found him. He says this is his final resting place. He adds that Show will feel his pulse quickening and will have no sight, and there Taker will punish him for all his sins. He says that he will be beaten by his own hand, and once he is buried 6 feet under, Taker will drag his soul down to the depths of hell.

Jeff Hardy appears on the screen, but we can’t see his face at first. When he looks up, he is wearing come kooky glow in the dark face paint. He says he should be concerned about tonight and should be concerned about him, Jeff Hardy. He says he’s sorry for interrupting him and for what? Being himself and being human? He says he’s tired of being sorry. He says Taker may see the world as light and dark, but Hardy sees the world in shades of gray. He says that this is what allows him to do what others can’t. He says that he has lived his whole life on the edge and this has built up rage and frustration over the years. He says that all that rage will be unleashed on Undertaker tonight and he will be taken to the Extreme.

Taker raises a microphone. He responds “So it will be Jeff Hardy. Tonight, you will Rest… in…Peace”. His eyes roll back with this last word.

[JR and Tazz promote the night’s matches]

Matt Hardy comes to the ring followed by Shelton Benjamin. Hurricane Helms appears with a Hurrapop as Shelton Benjamin comes to the ring. He comments on his hair saying that Shelton looks like the love child of Gary Coleman and Hacksaw Duggan. He’s just saying.

Match #1: ECW Champion Matt Hardy vs. US Champion Shelton Benjamin:
They lock up and Shelton takes hardy down. He applies a headlock until hardy whips him off the ropes.

WWE Title Match Contract Signing:
Vickie and Chavo Guerrero are in the ring. She garners massive heat as she screams Excuse Me! She says that at Survivor Series, the WWE Championship will be defended when Vladimir Kozlov will challenge Triple H. She says that she has invited both these men into her ring tonight, on the condition that there will be no physicality between them during the contract signing.

- Commercial Break #4 -

Vickie has to say Excuse Me again when we return. She welcomes us to the official contract signing for the WWE Title match at Survivor Series. She makes note that if Jeff Hardy does what he promised tonight, and takes out The Undertaker, he may be added to the title match. However, for now the match is between two of the top stars and is a match so colossal that is deserves to be on her show, SmackDown. She introduces Kozlov to massive heat. She then introduces Triple H who gets a ridiculously massive pop.

Triple H picks up his mic and says that he just wants to say that being in this ring right now is kind of special. He says it is kind of like the United Nations right now. He says that they have a Russian representative (Kozlov), a Mexican representative (Chavo), and a representative from Fattslvania (indicated Vickie). He then says he was just joking and that she is really from Bulge-garia. He then says he’s joking and she is from Chunkyslovakia. Vickie interrupts him and asks if they can get back to business and Triple H apologizes and tells her she can start.

Kozlov speaks on Russian for a moment and Triple H asks if anyone picked that up, then says that no one understood him. Kozlov tells him to shut up, but Triple H tells Kozlov to shut up and listen. He says that he knows the real story and that Kozlov can give him those mean Russian eyes all he wants.. See, he has been champion before and has main evented a PPV with the title on the line before. On the other hand, this is Kozlov’s first go round. He says that he knows the nerves are building up right now…..

Suddenly, Jeff Hardy is on the top rope, leaps off, and slams Kozlov face first through the table. Triple H backs off as Hardy grabs the contract, tears it up, and throws it his face. Hardy is still wearing the kooky face paint that makes him look like some kind of ghost thing. Hardy leaves as Triple H watches him from the ring and JR and Tazz promote his match.

Ranjin calls her a real looker and says she Is voluptuous and well proportioned. He says that she is what the Great Khali calls a Cougar. He asks if she is ready and when she says she is, he starts a Khali chant to encourage him. Suddenly, MVP gets up and Khali hits him with a Khali Bomb. Ranjin then re-cues the music and chant but Khali doesn’t kiss her. Ranjin says Khali is feeling generous tonight, and so he wants her to have a very special kiss, from MVP!! She kisses him after which MVP freaks and leaves the ring.

Hardy grabs a kendo stick, stagger over while leaning on the announce table, and hits Taker between the eyes with it. He then hits him three more times before following him into the ring and nails him in the spine. Taker retaliates with a huge boot to the face and then the kendo stick to the face sending him flying through the ropes and to the floor. Taker follows him and hits two head butts. He then runs at Hardy leaning on the barricade but he dodges and Taker lands split legged on the wall. Hardy throws some rights and lefts but Taker comes back with one huge right sending Hardy on the floor. Taker picks Hardy up and tries to ram his face into the ring post but Hardy slides free and dodges a clothesline before slamming Takers face into the steps. He then knocks Taker to the security wall before launching himself off the steps and taking Taker into the wall and himself over it to the concrete floor. Both men get up, throw some rights, get in the ring, and taker scores a near fall. Taker goes for Old School but hardy counters and takes him down. Hardy then climbs under the ring and opposite out the other side with a ladder. He climbs in the ring but taker kicks the ladder in his face. He then slams it into him in the corner. Hardy is whipped to the corner but he counters with a Whisper in the Wind. Suddenly Big Show runs to the ring, tosses Jeff from the ring, and then attacks The Undertaker with a chokeslam. Hardy manages to get to the top rope and jumps at Show but is caught. He manages to hold Show half on the ropes as Taker grabs a steel chair and nails Show in the back with it. He flips over the top and to the floor as Hardy slides under the ropes and back into the ring. He nails Taker with the ladder and then sets it up in the corner. He launches himself from the top rope, over the ladder as a springboard, and hits a huge legdrop on The Undertaker to pick up the win.

Hardy gets while the getting is good, as Taker sits up a few moments later. He heads out back and we see him stagger through a doorway. We hear slow clapping and Vickie Guerrero is seen clapping from her chair with Chavo behind her. She says it was an impressive victory, but she never offered him the same deal as she did to Vladimir. She says that therefore, next week Jeff Hardy will take on Triple H in a non-title match, and if he wins then she will make the Survivor Series main event a Triple Threat match. Hardy says that’s fine and he will beat Triple H. He then warns that if he does and she doesn’t put him in the match, then he might just go Extreme on her.

She doesn't even need the wheelchair! That's getting pathetic too. Besides, she's gotton Tombstoned by Taker, speared by Edge (the wrestling move I mean), and West Coast Popped by Mysterio. Though Hardy could go further.

Monday Night – November 17th, 2008 – Atlanta, GA

Show Opening:

The show opens with the superstars filling the ring. Michael Cole introduces Stephanie McMahon and she comes to a podium the stage. She says that since Mike Adamle quit, she has been bombarded with questions and therefore she would like to take the chance to answer some of these questions.

Randy Orton steps up first. He asks why the Survivor Series World Title match goes to Cena. He asks what so great about Cena saying that he himself is more talented and more deserving of the shot. She says that choice was made behind by her brother behind her back but Cena is a contender and is a former champion and therefore gets the title shot.

Cody Rhodes is next. He says that two weeks ago Orton kicked his partner Ted DiBiase in the head and gave him a concussion. He wants to know why he wasn’t suspended and instead was made the captain of a Survivor Series tag team. In addition, he had been places on Orton’s tag team. She says that he did the same to CM Punk which is why he is facing Punk tonight. She then makes the Punk/Orton match a 30 Man Lumberjack match. Orton cuts in and says that isn’t fair because it will be complete chaos. Stephanie shuts him up.

Santino Marella steps up next and first notes that rap artist Akon is in the audience, but calls him Acorn. He says that therefore he is going to ask his question as a rap. He puts on a baseball cap sideways and then raps. “My name’s Santino, I come from Europe, I like my pancakes with maple syrup, I lost my title to William Regal, his knee to my head should have been illegal...(I missed a line here)… Now I want back my IC Title.” She says he had two rematches last week overseas and he lost both so he’s out of luck. Santino then addresses Akon who is laughing at him, and says he hopes a squirrel chews his nuts and stores them away for winter.

JBL steps up next. He asks where her father is. He says that no one seems to know where Vince is and he needs to talk to him because he has a problem with someone Vince has had problems with in the past, namely Shawn Michaels. Stephanie replies that her father is out of the picture and that she and her brother Shane are running the show now. She then says that in six days, he and HBK will get their chance to……

She is cut off when HBK walks up front and onto the platform. He says about that whole six days thing, what if say…one didn’t want to wait. What if one were bashed in the head with a chair last week by a certain individual and wanted some payback against that individual. Stephanie says that won’t happen tonight and that as she told Orton, each individual is responsible for their actions and that he would have to be patient. HBK says that patience is a virtue and one he respects and he knows that every superstar is responsible for their actions. Therefore, he wanted to let her know that he is sorry because he is responsible for this. He then leaps off the platform and attacks JBL and the two men begin exchanging blows as the other superstars scatter.

He stares down Orton from the top rope and then looks down at Cody Rhodes. Rhodes almost gets in the ring but stops. Batista gets a mic and says that for three years he’s had to listen to Orton run his mouth badmouthing him and Evolution. He says that for all that time he’s wanted to kick Orton’s ass, and this Sunday he finally gets to do it. He says that Orton should stop worrying about John Cena and whose next in line for a title shot, and start worrying about what Batista is going to do to him at Survivor Series.

[Cole and King promote the night’s upcoming matches]

- Commercial Break #3 -

Orton walks in to Cody Rhodes locker room and asks if Rhodes is going to keep taunting Batista and whining about DiBiase, because if he is then he can go and tell Stephanie to kick him off his Survivor Series team. He says that tonight he is going to destroy Punk and show Rhodes first hand what happens when someone backs up what they say.
Rhodes tells Orton to keep talking, because right now, it’s what he’s best at.

Todd Grisham interviews Evan Bourne. We see footage of Bourne injuring himself and he then comes out on crutches. He says he’s still stuck in this boot but his ankle is feeling better. He says that it’s hard to watch from the sidelines, but once he is better he’s going to pick up right where he left off….. Mike Knox suddenly appears and the two stare each other down.

HBK approaches Rey and says to stop the music. He says he’s made this walk a lot of times with a lot of men…Marty Janetty, Triple H, even Hulk Hogan, but this is the first time he is walking with Rey. He says he’s nervous and takes a deep breath. Rey says they should take it step by step, one foot at a time. They slowly walk down the hall and cheer that they are doing it. They run into Dolph Ziggler.

He explains that this is the last night before John Cena returns to RAW, and when he does everything is going to change. He says the only thing that will prevent full anarchy s if e retains that title on Sunday. He says he knows that she and everyone else is hoping and praying he retains the title, whether they want to admit it or not. Think about that.

- Commercial Break #6 -

When we return, Todd Grisham interviews CM Punk. We see footage of Orton kicking Punk in the head at Unforgiven two months ago. He says that these last couple weeks have been frustrating for him. He says that he doesn’t understand why Orton attacked him but thinks that its probably because he was injured and was feeling useless and wanted to make a statement. He says that he knew he wasn’t going anywhere and now he knows that Orton isn’t going anywhere either because of the 30 lumberjacks, whose sole purpose is to keep them in the ring. He says that tonight he is going to unleash two months of pent up frustration on Orton.

Locker Room:
Kane walks into the locker room and asks JBL if he has any orders for tonight. He sarcastically calls him captain. JBL says he knows that Kane doesn’t take orders well but they have no problem and should be able to coexist. He says that they are alike but Kane cuts him off. He point out that JBL’s hobby is giving financial advice to people, whereas his is seeking out innocent victims and shocking their groins with car batteries. He says that he takes orders from no one and if JBL isn’t careful, he will have a full scale mutiny on his hands.

-- Regarding WWE's recent crackdown of marijuana use, this has frustrated a number of wrestlers. Some are telling friends they will continue to smoke pot in spite of the crackdown. Others predict those recently approached by management regarding their habit will replace it with alcohol. As noted earlier, one wrestler in particular has failed for pot 12 times, with his push leveling off as a result. The wrestler in question is a SmackDown performer.

I know. I was like wtf?

I'm 1-2 on the online circuit for the Wii. Stupid lag. If you do have the Wii version PM me and we could get some matches going.

Mine is for PS3, and even then I will not play it online. For starters I don't get highspeed where I live. It's been promised since July with no good outcome yet, LOL. I have played them online before at my aunt's using her connection but it lags so much. You can't do much of anything. It lags so much before your guy even moves the match is over! LMAO.

I would say The Brian Kendrick, he walks like he's high.

LOL. He looks more than just high. As for the pot thing. I would agree with it. Me being someone who doesn't support it - and I have very good reasons for that along with every other type of drug in the book - but if they want to do it, they should do it in their spare time not during work or when they know they are going to be performing. That's just disrespectful to fans.

It's Time for Some Wrestling News!!

(It looks like you know your WWE Superstars Legendary!)

1) Who Is The Wrestler Who Failed For Marijuana 12+ Times?
Ryan Clark
11/19/2008 at 09:26 PM

As most of you probably know by now, a story recently surfaced regarding a number of WWE wrestlers being confronted about failing marijuana tests as officials are said to be fed up with the problem. The failures are not considered violations of the Wellness Policy, but rather, simply result in a $1,000 fine. However, a couple of wrestlers were told outright to stop using now and warned them discipline for use is going to get a lot more serious soon.

The Wrestling Observer Newsletter noted one wrestler in particular as failing for pot 11 or 12 times not to mention that his push of not that long ago was stopped.

I can finally identify the wrestler in question.

According to sources backstage, the wrestler in question who failed a dozen tests for pot is Brian Kendrick, whose push has leveled off in recent weeks. Kendrick is said to be a frequent marijuana smoker who happily pays the fines to continue his habit.

Amidst the story of WWE's marijuana crackdown, the Pro Wrestling Torch noted that one wrestler was let go this year as a result of his marijuana habit, at least on top of a few other things. The wrestler in question is Trevor Murdoch, who was released this past July. Murdoch is said to be a frequent marijuana smoker.

2) Why Ted DiBiase Is Gone
Ryan Clark
11/18/2008 at 12:42 PM

The reason that the WWE wrote Ted DiBiase out of storylines is because he has signed on to do a WWE Films project. Do not expect to see DiBiase anytime soon as he will be starring in WWE Films' second straight-to-DVD movie, The Marine II. John Cena will not be a part of the project, outside of a possible cameo appearance.

C/O Rajah:

Goldust is Back!

Dustin Runnels is returning to World Wrestling Entertainment as he has signed his contract. Runnels recently faxed his signed contract to officials. He has not been given a start date, but is expected to end up on the Raw brand. Head Raw writer Brian Gewirtz is pushing for him the most as he's always been a fan of the Goldust character. Upon his return, he will likely play a comedic role rather than a risque/serious one.

Trish Stratus hints at possible WWE Comeback!

.........As for plans to return to the ring, Trish told WWE.com that the door is always open for a return: "I’ve heard that Beth Phoenix and this new Diva Natalya have talked [trash] about me,” says Stratus with a gleam in her penetrating eyes. “I’ve said it before, but if they ever decided to call me out, I wouldn’t hesitate to step into the ring.”

[King Goldar]

W00t! I really hope Trish would return!! We need Trish, Lita, Molly and Ivory all back!! They could really teach some of these new Divas a lesson or two!

As for Brian Kendrick.. if they don't like it, and have to keep giving him fines.. and he pays them just to continue the habit.. and they seem upset about it... expect his release to be coming soon, which is really sad since Kendrick and London were such a great tag team together but London is gone now, so oh well!

As for Goldust... YAY!!! Though, I don't like Goldust as a comic character. They really need to give him a good storyline and not what they did with him the last time he was on. Like mentioned earlier... Goldust and Marlena/Terri would be great again.

[007]

Goldust vs Cody Rhodes with Dusty Rhodes as the ref or at the announcers booth. That'd be interesting.

You know I'm slowly noticing a trend in all this WWE news. A lot of former employees are slowly returning from an era that we weren't afraid to watch wrestling (Attitude Era + Most of the Ruthless Aggression era).

Great news for the WWE as Goldust brings back some kind of decent mic work provided his gimmick.

As for knowing it was Brian Kendrick...for real, the dude acted like he was high he probably was high. He should straighten up or else dude is gonna be another Jeff Hardy just in the mid-card......
Oh wait.

OMG I wodner if he was high when doing all those crazy stnts with Paul London

OMG I wodner if he was high when doing all those crazy stnts with Paul London

LOL. That's the funny thing. He prob. was, but to me, he never looked like it. He didn't start looking bad until he went heel and you can tell he all strung out every time he comes out, LOL.

Like tonight. DAMN! He looked wasted coming out to the ring. Not enough editing could save that.

The Undertaker’s Last Rites Ceremony for The Big Show
The casket is in the ring with the blue lights on it when we return. The Undertaker’s gong can be heard as he makes his way to the ring. He rubs his hand along the side of the casket when he enters the ring. He says that at Survivor Series, they will settle their differences with a casket; better yet they will settle their differences in a casket match. He says to behold the casket and gaze at its beauty. He says that as Show gazes at it he should realize that this s his final resting place here on earth. He says as he stares at it he should think about his final moments in it. He says that when he closes the lid on Show, his debt to Taker will be repaid, and his debt to society will be repaid.

[Big Show’s music hits an he comes to the ring with Chavo and Vickie]

He says that Undertaker can spout all the mumbo jumbo he wants because some people might buy that, but he doesn’t. He says that he doesn’t fear Taker and so he has no power over him. He says he believes in power, but not that kind. His kind of power is this (he holds up his fist). He says he beat the Undertaker twice with this, and it is with this that he is going to…put him in the casket. Show stutters at the last line as he looks at the casket. Undertaker takes three steps forward and the lights go out as the gong sounds. When they come back on, Undertaker has Vickie by the throat in the ring and she is screaming her hear off. The fans explode as Taker opens the casket, puts her inside, and slams the lid closed. Chavo freaks out and tells Show to go help her but he stays where he is because of his fear of caskets. Instead, he throws Chavo into the ring and Taker focuses on him. While Chavo has Taker distracted, Show gets in the ring, manages to open the casket with a look of terror on his face, frees Vickie, and they flee back up the ramp. They look on as Chavo becomes the sacrificial lamb and is nailed with a Tombstone Piledriver. Undertaker then stares down the Big Show.

So Jeff Hardy was found unconscious? Funny...on the night of the ppv huh? At 4 in the morning? Whoa...this doesn't sound fake at all! I believe we have another Orton motor cycle accident on our hands.

[PuroresuNexus]

Man! I still cannot believe that Jeff Hardy was found unconscious in a hotel. Is it because of a heart attack...or something else? Well, we'll find out about it.

[Ao Ultimate]

I personally don't think this is real...I think it's just a hype move for them to boost up Survivor Series and possibly the feud he is in right now.

[DaiRed]

It's been confirmed that it's just part of the story.

2 things will make this night great:
1. Hardy finally wins the title.
2. Jericho beats Cena.

[007]

[PuroresuNexus]

Here are the quick results of the 2008 edition of Survivor Series! I'd like to say this...they had two big surprises.

Match 1: Team HBK def. Team JBL (Survivors: HBK, Great Khali and Rey Mysterio)
Match 2: Beth Phoenix is the sole survivor of the RAW VS Smackdown 5-on-5 Divas elimination match.
Match 3: Undertaker defeats Big Show in a casket match
Match 4: Team Orton def. Team Batista (Survivors: Randy Orton and Cody Rhodes)
Match 5: Edge defeats Triple H and Vladimir Kozlov to win the WWE Title (Jeff Hardy makes a surprise appearance by striking Triple H with a chair shot)
Main Event: In front of his hometown fans in Boston, John Cena defeats Chris Jericho to win his first World Heavyweight Title.

That is it for the quick results! For me, Survivor Series 2008 was a nice PPV, but i still cannot believe that Edge returns and becomes the new WWE Champion.

[King Goldar]

So, is the Jeff stuff just for story? If so, is it to start a story between him and Edge? I can see Jeff winning a title from Edge more than Triple H and Vladimir.

As for Cena... WTF?!?! NO!!! God f*cking damn it. I'm pissed. So pissed. Too pissed to continue!

[DaiRed]

AAAAARRRRG!

http://nuncscio.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/khan.jpg
CENAAAAAA!

[Legendary.]

Guys...if Cena has respect for the business like he says he does, he will not change the WHC because it's too much of an honor to him. He can now be CONSIDERED (by Vince) to be one of the best in this industry because he can say he's held the same title that Jericho, Undertaker, Ric Flair, Triple H, The Rock, Edge, and Randy Orton have all held...what's that? You notice a pattern here? THEY WERE AND ARE ALL BETTER THEN CENA. DAMN!!!!!!!!

This is so unfair and to believe SHR wanted him to win? Jericho has no business putting over Cena now and even back in 05 when he was "forced" to leave the WWE because of that douche. Boston gave Cena an ovation, yes they did...but they also booed him loudly. Cena is not over anywhere except with 7-10 year olds. Talk about being born with a silver spoon in his mouth he came into the WWE with one in his mouth.

I used to hate Triple H and his year long reign but that's because he cheated to win, he was low and did dirty things to win...Cena and his long reign was about him mowing down everyone in the main event to establish himself. One program with HBK and Jericho established himself as the only guy on Raw with the ability to do it all. Cena, sure he's great at selling moves, being able to make someone look good, but really why do they feel he needs the belt? This is just like Jeff Hardy except in reverse. We all wanna see if Jeff can carry that title and do something with it. With Cena, we wanna see him not have the title and do something with wrestling except Cena doesn't have a leash on him due to outside life mistakes.

With my rant being out of my way...Monday night Raw is tonight...My perfect vision of the night would end with Jericho challenging and winning back his title by cheating (even though he shouldn't have too) to establish that he is a heel and this is his time. But the way I see it happening is either Cena or Jericho opening up the show (maybe even Stephanie or Shane) talking about the title. Jericho wants a rematch and Cena will accept. Batista will come out and say he wants a title shot followed by Orton who says he's beaten all of them already and should get a shot. Authority figure makes match for tonight...Tag match maybe involving Orton,Jericho vs Tista, Cena. Then a diva match after highlights of Beth being the the Sole Survivor.

[007]

I only wanted him to win so I can see Orton be the one to take the title because Orton beating jericho wouldn't be as exciting.

[Legendary.]

The match sure as hell would be.

[TheRoyalKnight]

Yay for Edge im hopeing for a long title regin,and orton better destroy Cena at the next PPV

[Legendary.]

We all know that this is his title reign will be over before or at Wrestlemania although he's in need of a Wrestlemania win soon.

Lol was talking about the harsh realizations of another Edge title reign. BUT! this is all leading up to Cena-Batista 2 which will be boring. Cena will end up carrying the match since Batista has trouble keeping pace after 10 minutes in a match where he's the focus.

Eh, I don't care about Edge that much.

[King Goldar]

Edge - PSH!

Cena - PSH!

Batista - PSH!

Now I gotta sit through Raw tonight with a bunch of Cena lovers in the room screaming "AAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!" thinking they're gonna have an orgasm every time he's seen on screen!

Year End Awards.

This format is designed to let you choose the nominees and winners yourself. I should remind the year ends January 1st so you might wanna hold on to this but like I mentioned in the shoutbox, I'll be looking at what happens now and compare it to the rest of the year and apply my answers to that. You can do the same or answer it now and change your answers as the year ends. These apply to all companies. choose who ever you want for any of the awards and add your own awards if you feel it's needed.

The best thing about WWE Raw tonight was both Melina and Milena. Nice plant by WWE I hope this leads to Milena's eventually debut. If you're confused about my Melina and Milena. I'm talking about Milena Roucka, she's a diva in training and she was holding up the very noticed Glamazon in training sign.

[Ao Ultimate]

Even though they messed up the surprise...Melina was great tonight. Her moves were on point, especially that Sunset Flip-Powerbomb like move she did. It was great to see her back.

[King Goldar]

Milena Roucka - wasn't she in one of the Diva Searches? I think that's where I seen her from. Beside that, last week I was watching some FCW video clips with Milena, Kelly Kelly, Alicia Fox and some other chicks.

Now, speaking of Melina - I'm glad she's back. I missed her. Everything seems to be looking good now... now if only Candice could be put out of action for another year...

[Legendary.]

Yep that's the same one. I think she's a great fit to be someone's manager who can double as a female competitor. Maybe she can be thrown into the Glamarella story with her being one in training ;) She's definitely got the looks and if she could roll everything she's learned into her wrestling skills then she's definitely someone to look out for in the future.

[Green Space Ranger]

CENA CENA CENA finally the champ is here. i am so glad the he is now the world heavyweight champion

[Legendary.]

...You and SHR.

Also glad to see Christy pick up a win to face Kong for the title. I doubt she will win though.

Chriz your awards are good except R-Truth i think he's going to last the fans love him like they do the Urban gimmick(Cena,Crime Time)Cage is a alright choice im hopeing when he returns to the WWE(Which im angrey about)he becomes a heel to team with Edge and Tomko

[chriz]

Well he was in WWE before with same gimmick and didn't last. Besides Cena the rappers don't last and even Cena doesn't rap anymore. R-truth will be buried most likely by HHH as he's on same show, then become a jobber and get realised, It's inevitable.

[GoldPhoenixRanger]

i wonder what JBL has offered HBK

If you saw RAW Monday night, you would know that JBL offered HBK a job, because according to the story HBK lost a lot of money because of the recession and if he gets injured and can't wrestle anymore then he's done. I'm not sure if he accepted, but JBL was smiling at the end of the segment so I think he did. We will have to see where this goes.

-GPR

[007]

So HBK's a heel! Woot! Its about time for a BIG change.

[King Goldar]

I hope you're right! I really liked him when he was in WWE before as K-Kwik, but the R-Truth character just sucks major ass. But, I wouldn't want to see someone like Triple H put him "out of business" - I'd like that someone to be Shelton Benjamin. :D

yeah the reason I mentioned HHH is wwe's pattern of squashing somene before release. It's normally Cena or HHH makes them look like a joke in 2 minutes then get loses by shelton , mvp and other mid carders then it's loosing to people like Snitsky and other jobbers before been released.

[007]

Hey question this losing streak MVP is having, Is it a storyline or is he just gonna do squash matches and head back to OVW.?

[chriz]

I'm hoping it's a storyline but they all ready said he lost all his money so they killed his better than you gimmick i fear the worst, I like mvp and hope it's building to something to good though

[007]

he lost all his money? As in he went broke or he spent it all or it got stolen? or as in because of his losing streak his pay check has decreased alot?

[Legendary.]

Answer this logically because I wanna know the truth.

Do you think Randy Orton could've carried the Smackdown brand as it's champion while he was feuding with Taker back when he was on Smackdown for the second time.

[007]

Hmmmm I would sya no because back then he was the 'legend killer" and he if he did win it he'd have it taken away from Taker. But now hes awesome and his gimmick isway better then it was during then.


Also I have a solution for MVP. There are only two "brothas" out there who can help. And they got that Money! Money! Yeah! Yeah!.....Money! Money! Yeah! Yeah! Lol xD

[King Goldar]

Maybe MVP should knock them out and sale their teeth! Money! Money!

[007]

Tonite is Gregory helms return to Smackdown and will be facing off against MVP!

[King Goldar]

Does anyone know if you can take digital cameras or those small recorders to a WWE taping? You can see camera flashes in the audience but I'm just wondering. SmackDown is going to be taping in the town over from me January 10th and really want to take a camera if you can - if I am able to go!

Also, I know they are now taping two shows during each taping when their able so would you actually get to see both tapings or do you need to get two tickets??

[007]

Yes you can people do it all the time.


Anyway Khali si now ....The Punjabi Playboy!

[Legendary.]

Thats funny cuz I'm the The Great Khali now.

[007]

LOL! And Im Ranjin Singh.

[chriz]

Thats funny cuz I'm the The Great Khali now.


Legendary's kiss cam on Shoutbox for the win!

[Legendary.]

lol.

Vladimir Kozlov has won Breakout Star of the Year.

Others nominees were Evan Bourne, Kofi Kingston, and Ted DiBiase.

Logically yes. He deserved to win, he's had a rise to the top on Smackdown and he's been in a championship main event on a ppv. Plus he was undefeated. Evan Bourne was likely the runner up but I do not disagree with Vladdy as the winner although from P.O.V it should have been Kofi.

R-Truth has won Performance of the Year.
-Other nominees including, Santino rapping to Akon, Edge singing to Vickie, and The Miz and John Morrison rapping.

Really Santino should win, it would've been hilarious to watch him doing the Owen Hart gig. I wanna see Santino win atleast two Slammy's tonight.

Monday Night – December 8th, 2008 – Philadelphia, PA

Show Opening:
[The show begins with a promo open for the awards, featuring an assortment of footage]

Tag Team of the Year
The first presenters of the night are Maria and Festus. Festus is wearing overalls and a tie. Maria explains the award for tag team of the year. The nominees are:

a) Primo & Carlito
b) Priceless
c) Miz & Morrison
d) Cryme Tyme

The Slammy goes to Miz & Morrison! They come to the stage as the crowd boos. They hug each other and show off for the crowd. They hold the award up in excitement. The crowd begins a You Suck chant. Miz taunts toe dormant Festus. He then uses his finger to move Festus mouth and put words in it. They then tell him to leave and he and Maria leave. Morrison thanks the academy, their parents, Admiral Ackbar, and an assortment of other people. They say a lot of people told them they couldn’t win the award, but they did. They say that not only does this award mean that they are the greatest tag team today but they are the greatest tag team of the 21st century. They say there are winners and there are losers, and they are the Tag Team of the Year. Be Jealous!!

Match #1: IC Tournament Match – John Morrison vs. CM Punk:
They lock up and Punk applies an armbar. He rolls him up and scores a near fall. Morrison then rolls him up and scores a near fall. Punk goes for a GTS but Morrison gets free. Punk attacks Morrison in the corner, takes him down, and scores a near fall. Punk goes off the ropes and is kicked in the head. Morrison pulls him from the ring but Punk hits a high knee. He then hits a running knee to Morrison into the apron. He then launches himself at Morrison with a crossbody.

- Commercial Break #1 -

Morrison has Punk in an ankle hold when we return. We see footage of Punk landing on his ankle outside the ring during the commercial. Morrison continues to torque the ankle as Punk fights out. He stomps it down and then goes to the top rope. Punk gets up and knocks Morrison down. He then climbs the ropes and Hurricaranas Morrison off the top and down to the mat. Punk scores a near fall. Morrison ends up in the corner but attacks the injured leg. He then hits a Russian Leg Sweep and scores a near fall. Punk comes back and slams Morrison in the corner. He goes for a kick but Morrison ducks, then kicks Punk in the head and scores a near fall. Punk then comes back with a kick of his own and scores a near fall. Punk pulls himself on the apron, hits a clothesline over the ropes, and scores a near fall. Punk then goes for the GTS but Morrison counters into a roll up and scores a near fall. Punk kicks Morrison in the head, then picks him up, connects with the GTS, and picks up the win.

[We then see footage of the assault on John Cena last week]

Backstage:
Todd Grisham interviews Cena in the back. He says Hustle Loyalty Respect are three words that former champion Jericho thinks no longer exist. He says that last week when he was home his dog Lou became a fan of Jericho. He says that every time his dog watches RAW and saw Jericho he began cleaning himself. He says that this made his dog throw up, which made him throw up. He says that he banned his dog from watching the WWE until Armageddon clearly mocking Jericho’s speech from last week. He says that he’s sorry about Jericho’s son and that he never meant to cause him any problems at home. He thinks that the reason his son was running around pretending to be Cena is not because he was poisoned by anyone, but because he saw his father become a snot nosed punk who needs to have his teeth knocked down his throat. He says if he were Jericho, he would moan and complain about being assaulted by five men last week and woould halt the broadcast until he got what he wanted. He is going to do that though because that isn’t how he solves his problems and because this is the Slammy’s and he has a match against Edge tonight. He also says that he is going to solve this his way, and will fight Chris Jericho. He says that Jericho doesn’t have to wonder because he is going to fight him, and teach him the meaning of the word respect.

- Commercial Break #2 -

Best Finishing Maneuver Award
Candice Michelle and Cryme Tyme present. They say yo and hey yo several times. JTG suggests Stone Cold Stunner, Shad goes for Rock Bottom, JTG says Figure Four, Shad says Sharpshooter. They say that finishers catch an opponent by surprise, etc.

a) Hell’s Gate (Undertaker’s Submission)
b) The RKO
c) Shooting Star Press (Evan Bourne)
d) Big Show’s Knockout Punch

Cryme Tyme tries to steal the award but Candice catches them. She announces the winner as Evan Bourne for the Shooting Star Press. She says that he couldn’t be there because of his ankle injury but she will accept on his behalf. Suddenly, Mike Knox music hits and he comes and takes the award. The fans begin a You Suck chant as Candice leaves. Cole and King remind us of Knox being the reason that Bourne isn’t here.


Randy Orton then comes to the stage. He says that you would think that being WWE Champion for four months of the year and winning the main event at Wrestlemania was impressive, but apparently it’s not good enough to warrant a nomination for superstar of the year, even though he has beaten all of the nominees. He says that tonight is just like any other night because of a lack of respect. He says that in Evolution, Batista and Triple H turned on him because they were jealous. He says that tonight Triple H and Batista are supposed to compete against each other. He says he has a better idea and says that he, Cody Rhodes, and Manu are challenging the two of them to a two on three handicapped match. He says that tonight, the legacy will be born.

- Commercial Break #3 -

MVP is in the ring and says that this whole loser streak ahs been blown way out of proportion. He says that he’s talking to Jimmy Rawlins. He says that he might be in a slump but it took his team 25 years to win something and that was a fluke. He says that once he gets the one win he needs, he will be back on top. Suddenly he is interrupted by MVC….Most Valuable Charlie.

So I got a joke for all you wrestling fans. John Cena walks into a bar...he wins everything that's obtainable...

Wait.. That's not a joke. He really did pork Mickie =[

Anyone see her body in that dress? I mean it's not like me to act like a perv on a public forums but I'm 18...That dress deserved Damn moment of the year...damnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn ;)

[Ao Ultimate]

I've been hearing a rumor around WWE that Joey Styles punched out JBL...is that true? And if it is, good for you Joey!

[GoldPhoenixRanger]

Yes, it is true AoUltimate! Here are the details care of Gerweck.net:

PWinsider is reporting that former WWE Champion John “Bradshaw” Layfield got his lights knocked out during the Iraq tour thanks to former ECW commentator Joey Styles. Styles, who heads up the WWE.com division, was on his first tour of Tribute to the Troops and JBL made it a point to make his life a living hell with jokes and the typical JBL nonsense that makes him every new wrestler’s enemy backstage at shows. Known for his hazing, JBL “bullied” Styles according to Mike Johnson and when Styles couldn’t take it anymore, he did simply did what others wish they’d done before – knock him the f*** out. Styles punched JBL in front of everyone, cutting him below the eye and giving him a nice shiner. JBL eventually stopped his jokes on Styles after the humiliation and the two continued the tour without any more incidents. (Thanks to Colin Vassallo)

[King Goldar]

Jillian was totally robbed on the slammys!

As for JBL getting punched... AHAHAHAH!!!

I love Alicia Fox!!!

[TheRoyalKnight]

finally Suicide has debuted

[GoldPhoenixRanger]

In case you guys haven't heard, two more matches have been announced for Armageddon this Sunday:

1) Matt Hardy vs. Vladimir Kozlov (Non-Title)

2) Belfast Brawl - Finlay vs. Mark Henry

[King Goldar]

Snitsky has been released.

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't happy. No more ugly teeth!

Also Now that Gregory helms is back i hope WWE bringback the cruiserweight title because it kinda died after he lost it to Hornswoggle to GAB. I mean we have Cruisweweights. Gregory Helms, Chavo Guerrero, Kung-Fu Naki, The Brian Kendrick, Jimmy Wang Yang, Shannon Moore, R-truth and maybe Jeff Hardy(because didn't he use to be light enough to contend for the WWF LightHeavyweight title, infact i think he even won it.). It sucks Rey Mysterio and Jamie Noble are on RAW because they were good cruiserweights as well. Hell even Evan Bourne would make a great Cruiserweight.

Who wants to see the cruiserweight title back?

[TheRoyalKnight]

it would be cool but Vinne Mac is about the "Big"guys Tna is more for that type of style

[Legendary.]

Not true. A while back (meaning not to long ago) it was said that it was a great time to be a small guy in the WWE. While Vince does have an affinity for the bigger guys, look at everyone he's been signing and calling up. Guys with talent.

Dolph Ziggler
Evan Bourne
DJ Gabriel
Jack Swagger
Kizarny
Gail Kim
*Rumored to be coming soon* Christian Cage
Tomko
R-Truth

None of those guys are seriously built except for Gabriel but he has talent and Alicia Fox...;)

The WWE won't bring back the Crusierweight title because there is no longer a need for it unless it's going to ECW. Gregory Helms doesn't need to be a Crusierweight again, he's ready for the U.S Title. People that are considered crusierweights on Smackdown will either move to the jobber role or get pushed either as singles or a tag team. Look at Brian Kendrick as an example of getting pushed and Jimmy Wang Yang as an example of getting jobbed.

[GoldPhoenixRanger]

Speaking of cruserweights, was anyone really suprised to see Curry Man get fired last night? Heck, was anyone even sad to see him go? Although, hopefully they'll bring him back with a better gimmick.

-GPR

[TheRoyalKnight]

*Christopher Daniels*is curry man lol and he is returning

[007]

Eh I saw it kinda comming once homicide won TNA world title because they werent gonna end LAX. Also kidna funny when he was like Es good? yes? And JB is like No not good. And then backstage he was like I win Fired Championship.

[TheRoyalKnight]

Lol Curryman was a alright chararter only a comedy role and with the frontline they had to end the whole super eric justice group thing with Sharkboy.But the good thing is that we get Christopher Daniels and i think he would join the MEM because the frontline has 3d and Rhino so a Tna origanal should go to MEM's side

[007]

Im sad to see Snitsky go I think he and Mike Knoxwould of made an awesome tag team.


Also WTF!? On RAW's Slammy even this past monday Big shows "Knockout Punch" was nominate dfor best finisher for something. What kind of stupid finisher is that? If you want to have that as a finisher, go to UFC. I rather have him bring back the Chokeslam. I also think there was a short period where he himself used the F-5.

[TheRoyalKnight]

Idk im not enjoying most of the matches and stuff in the WWE i enjoy ECW though because the young and fresh guys get pushed but im not sold on Jack Swagger i wanna see how he can handle a big time feud with Matt Hardy.Snitsky could have been a great monster but insted he jobs to Rey Myestrio Are you kidding me and now we are going to see the same with Mike Knox.I like Priceless/Orton story and i cant wait to see them form a faction like evolution and of corse Edge is great and he better not lose,i dont care for the Raw main event tommorow.

[007]

Whatever happened to Ryan Braddock?

[TheRoyalKnight]

last i heard he was going to repackaged and join a faction with Kevin throne or something like that

[Legendary.]

Idk im not enjoying most of the matches and stuff in the WWE i enjoy ECW though because the young and fresh guys get pushed but im not sold on Jack Swagger i wanna see how he can handle a big time feud with Matt Hardy.

Nothing on ECW is considered big time...=[

[TheRoyalKnight]

True but Mardy is a fan favoirte and is quite over with the crowd from what i see so it can be a chance to move swagger into the spotlight like Morrison/Punk feud,Evan Bourne or even Matt Hardy as a singles wrestler with the feud vs Mark Henry

[Legendary.]

Yeah trust me I'm a huge advocate when it comes to ECW in this thread. When it comes to big time feuds in the WWE none of them happened in ECW, sure some involved ECW but none of them happened in ECW. It was either spread out through out the WWE or finished in a month on a tv show.

The next "big" feud for ECW will most likely be Matt Hardy vs Vladimir Kozlov. Here's hoping Kozlov takes the title off of Hardy. It would work better for Swagger's eventual title shot. All American vs The Moscow Mauler...oh yeah.

I'm hoping for Evan Bourne to come back to the brand ASAP as he could potentially be a talent enhancer and a great worker at the same time. Him and DJ Gabriel could work some good matches. Evan Bourne is a new age Rey Mysterio. He's capable of selling big men in E and still look great while doing so... When the E noticed they don't need Rey anymore they will pluck Bourne from ECW and bring him over to RAW.

My dose of 3 World Championships needs atleast two of one. In this case Two Heels, One Face. Hardy's run is getting stale because no one on ECW can tell a story and no one in the WWE wants to waste a story on the C show. So here's hoping that Hardy gets head butted.

Swagger vs Kozlov would be a good feud but it needs Swaggeer to turn face and right now Kozlov seems unstoppable and is the best monster in the WWE and Evan shouldnt be on Raw he will get lost in the crowd there Smackdown or Ecw would be better for Bourne.I like DJ Gabirel he has solid mic skills,he can be one of those guys of the future.

I dont enjoy Raw as much anymore i watch it for three things,Priceless/Orton,Santio's scomedy and three to see Y2J take the title off Cena.I hate that all the big stars go to raw eiether when there in a push or before they get a huge push it ruins the other shows's depth.Kofi Kingston should be on smackdown right now he isnt ready for raw and the big time stars or a a big feud.

Smackdown is my second favorite wrestling show on TV(First is Tna,and im the biggest TNA supporter on the board).Smackdown has my favorite wrestler/one of the best heels in Edge.A bunch of guys that i think have a huge future like Ezikel Jackson he is a solid build,strong but i havent seen much of his mic skills and he's behind The Brian Kendrick(I hate Kendrick hogging the spotlight from big Zeke),They got some solid teams The Colons are pretty good.They got R-truth,Shelton Benjamin,Hurricane Helms etc.

[007]

WTF!? They better not get rid of Rey! Rey Mysterio my 2nd favorite superstar followed by Mr.Kennedy who is my 1st! Kennedy and Rey 4 lyfe!

Breaking News* WWE World Tag Team Championships change hands at house show

In a very unusual move, it is being reported that at tonight's Raw house show in Hamilton, Ontario, The Miz & John Morrison captured the World Tag Team Championships from CM Punk & Kofi Kingston.

It has been rumored for a while now that Miz & Morrison were in line for a run with the tag belts, but this scenario could have been a way to get the tag titles off of Punk, since he is now more involved in the chase for the Intercontinental Championship.

Punk is scheduled to meet Rey Mysterio in the finals of the Intercontinental Championship Tournament this Sunday at Armageddon

[King Goldar]

last i heard he was going to repackaged and join a faction with Kevin throne or something like that

I thought Kevin Throne was released earlier this year? Or was I mistaken?

[007]

Its Thorne, not throne. lol xD

[King Goldar]

Its Thorne, not throne. lol xD

I should know that since it's my best friend's last name too, LOL. But at least I have a reason - I was still half a sleep! But, still, hasn't he been released?

[TheRoyalKnight]

no on WWE universe he posts weird blogs and i think he is in FCw or something fine tuneing his skills

[007]

heres FCW's roster. Thorne isnt on there. I cant wait for Summe rof 09 cause thats when FCW starts to go on TV. w00t!

they need to edit there roster a little bit lol

[GoldPhoenixRanger]

He appears to be right DP. According to Wikipedia, Thorn is training in FCW, though he still appears at WWE house shows and in dark matches. Wiki cites an article on Gerweck.net but the link is dead so that article was likley removed.

The Rated R Superstar Edge was recently interviewed by SLAM! Sports and talked about a number of topics - including his time off, why he grew his beard out (and then shaved it) and more. You can read the entire piece at Canoe.Slam.Ca.

The most newsworthy item was Edge talking about the possibility of Christian Cage coming home to WWE. "If I could have Nick (Cvjetkovich - "Kizarny"), Jay (Reso - "Christian") -- I mean we grew up together. You never think all three of us could actually be in the same place."

Edge hopes Christian returns to WWE but will understand if he re-signs with TNA when his contract expires this month. "He has to

Edge is excited at the prospect of reuniting the famous Edge and Christian duo. "I have enough confidence in what I'm doing I won't let anything be a step back," Edge said. "If anything, just take it and make it work. I've tried to take that mentality with anything, even if I look at something and go 'Ooh. Ow. Oh well, make it work.' Just go full-bore with it, because if you sit there and piss and moan about it, it's probably not going to work."

He appears to be right DP. According to Wikipedia, Thorn is training in FCW, though he still appears at WWE house shows and in dark matches. Wiki cites an article on Gerweck.net but the link is dead so that article was likley removed.

Yep. Just found this article posted:

Kevin Thorn, who disappeared off the face of WWE, returned at the very same FCW show. You can see photos of Thorn at the same link. He appeared in his former vampire gimmick in ECW and has grown his hair back. When Thorn was last seen in ECW, he had gotten rid of the vampire gimmick to go for a more a generic look. He got rid of the vampire get-up, cut his hair short, and started wearing a singlet. In a recent blog on the WWE Universe site, Thorn ranted on WWE making him do away with the vampire gimmick. Thorn hasn't appeared on WWE television since the December 6, 2007 edition of ECW, but has amazingly managed to evade the company's many firing sprees this year.

Matt Hardy posted the following on his WWE Universe blog regarding his brother's WWE championship win last night:

First and foremost, I want to congratulate my brother Jeff-I am SO proud of him for never giving up of never being detoured. Tonight history was made. Jeff and myself, as the Hardy Boyz, are one of the greatest, most legendary tag teams in the professional wrestling business. That can not be denied, regardless of how smart of a fan or critic you are. We broke barriers in Ladder Matches, Tables Matches, TLC Matches, and several other areas. We semi-main evented Wrestlemania, we did everything you could do as a tag team. At the risk of sounding overconfident, for the record, we have sold more merchandise than any tag team in the history of the business. That is a fact. We have the greatest fans in the world-they've made all these things happen.

When a great tag team splits, one member usually goes on to be great while the other one struggles. That's not the case with us, nor ever will be. We are the first ever true blood brothers to go on to have extremely successful singles careers and both become World Heavyweight Champions. That has never been done in the WWE. Thanks again to all of our supporters and the people who have stuck with us through thick and thin. And I can promise you this-we're just getting started on our singles success journey. Look at my default picture-a picture say a thousands words-this one is no different.

Jeff and I LOVE our diehard supporters, because without them, we would have never made it this far. And there's NO ONE, regardless of how smart or sarcastic they are, that can put a dent in this amazing feat we've achieved. We've came quite a long ways from kids playing wrestlers on a trampoline and wrestling in the Southern Pines National Guard Armory for a couple bucks. We exemplify a living, breathing dream that people can believe in. No one can take away what two little country boys from rural Cameron, North Carolina have accomplished.

We wanna thank our Dad on Earth and our Mother in Heaven, I know she's looking down on us with a smile on her face and pride in her soul. We wanna thank everyone who has believed and supported us, you're more important to us than you could ever imagine. We wanna thank the critics and non-believers for driving us, hope you enjoy those negative words as you swallow them. We don't care about star ratings, match reviews, or what people out of our circle think about our "pushes" and careers (That's not a blanket statement directed towards everyone, some peeps "get" what we're doing actually).. We most importantly care about satisfying our casual fans, giving back to the kids that are wrestling fans (which at one time was us), and being examples of success that people can be motivated by.

I love my brother more than you'll ever know-and I have NEVER been more proud of him than I am right now. God bless you all, I can't say thank you enough. Dreams do come true-Matt and Jeff Hardy are proof of that.

Jillian scores a near fall, and she then uses Kelly’s hair as a submission on the ropes which she breaks at the four count. She then stomps her down and knees her in the stomach. She stops her from tagging and hits a cheap shot. Kelly avoids it, rolls her up from behind, and picks up the win.

Jillian then assaults Kelly after the match and Beth joins her after sending Melina to the floor. Suddenly Kane’s fire hits and he comes to the ring as the others evacuate. He stands over Kelly who looks terrified. She pushes herself back to the corner to avoid him, when he extends a hand as if to help her up. Instead she slides from the ring after which he follows her up the ramp and out of sight.

She stays in her chair, terrified and he says he knew he was right.

Match ?????
In the ring, Hacksaw Duggan is ready for a match against Chris Jericho, but Jericho comes to the ring in a suit. He says that if they want to know what he’s doing, he’ll tell us what he’s doing, he’s refusing to wrestle tonight. He says that he is the 2008 Superstar of the Year and he has been carrying this show for the last year, and it is a slap in the face that he has to face someone like Duggan. He analogizes himself to LeBron James and says that if he misses the game winning shot he doesn’t get put on the end of the bench the next night. He says that it doesn’t happen and shouldn’t happen to him either. He says that this is an insult and that he is not going to step into the ring again unless it is in a match worthy of the Superstar of the Year. He then leaves.

Backstage:
Kane says that Kelly wants to get to know him better, doesn’t she? She says no and he demands to know why. He asks if there’s someone else and asks who it is. He asks again and says that she is going to tell him whether she wants to or not.

He says that Stephanie should start treating him with some respect. She cuts him off and says that she is his boss and that if she says dance, she expects him to dance. Jericho says that he doesn’t think she’s doing a very good job as the boss and then points out that Batista’s rematch clause has expired and asks if she knew that. She sarcastically acts like she didn’t but then gets in his face and says that she knows everything there is to know about her superstars. She then says that next week, all of the former champions will compete in four matches and the winners of those matches will face in a Fatal 4-Way match the following week, with the winner of that match to face John Cena for the Title. She then says that if Jericho has a problem with one of her decisions again he should come and talk to her about it rather then making a spectacle of it on national television. She adds that if he does anything like that again, she will make sure that he will never again be in another match worthy of “Superstar of the Year”

Backstage:
Rhodes and Manu are in the back. Rhodes talks about their failed assault on Batista earlier when Orton walks up. He says that they failed at Armageddon and then again tonight. He adds that if they don’t start making an impact, then this group, this Legacy is over.

ProWrestling.net is reporting that WWE officials have soured on R-Truth, aka Ron Killings. The Truth entered WWE with a series of video packages and a lot of hype, and was met with warm fan response. After seeing the fan reaction, there was even talk within WWE that he could be the next ‘chosen one.’ However, WWE officials have quickly turned cold on his in-ring performances. His push has been stalled because they feel that his basic wrestling skills are limited.

Word going around is that management feels he should improve in the ring and even though he can hit the flashy spots, he needs to go back and work on the basics.

..... I beg for a release! Please WWE, release him now!!

[Legendary.]

If they release R-Truth they need to release John Cena. They do the same shit...

[007]

GPR They aren't called Priceless anymore, they are now called Legacy.

[Legendary.]

Aw man. Now their theme song makes no sense=[

[King Goldar]

If they release R-Truth they need to release John Cena. They do the same shit...

Yeah!!!! But, for now, one is better than none! LOL.

[TheRoyalKnight]

R-Truth will improve

[GoldPhoenixRanger]

I would like to get everyone's opinion on this, as I find it to be a disgrace to the WWE if it's true:

WWE Fan Robbed of History
By: Derek Greser 11/15/08

This past Sunday at WWE Armageddon 2008, history was made. In a shocking conclusion to the event, Jeff Hardy captured the WWE Championship. This would mark the first time that the high-flying Superstar would capture what is considered to be crown jewel of the sports entertainment business. Any fan of the WWE and/or Jeff Hardy can tell you this has been a long time coming. The event emanated from HSBC Arena in Buffalo, NY. The event marked the 2nd ever Pay-Per-View event in the city and venue's history, as well as its first major title change.

29-Year-Old Tom Griffith attended the event, and had front-row seats. Tom has been a 20-year tenaciously loyal fan of the WWE. I know Tom personally and I can say that without question, the WWE is one of the biggest passions in his life. Tom has attended over 25 live events in Buffalo, Toronto, Philadelphia and Rochester. He has purchased countless WWE DVD's and box-sets (many on their release date), video games, memorabilia, clothing, and roughly $7000 dollars on pay-per-view events.

Unfortunately for Tom, he was not able to witness history. Prior to the main event, Armageddon featured a mid-card bout between Batista and Randy Orton. Tom, an avid fan of Randy lead his friends in a raucous chorus of boos Batista's entrance. They even dared to direct a naughty hand gesture (The same that mega-star Stone Cold Steve Austin used on television for years) at the 300 plus lb. powerhouse dubbed "The Animal". Batista himself made eye contact with Tom and his friends, and got right in their face before ascending the ring apron. Due to the quality of Tom's seats, this was clearly visible to fans at home as well as in the arena.

Tom then received a signal from one of the cameramen working outside the ring. This WWE employee made the "slit the throat" gesture at Tom which universally means "cut it out". Tom nodded, and decided that he had expressed himself enough. Minutes later, approximately 8 imposing looking men dressed in gray suits asked if they could speak with Tom in the aisle. Tom obliged and was then walked out of the arena, concluding in the gray suits tearing his ticket up in front of him. The explanation Tom was given was "The person renting this building tonight has requested you be removed from it". Tom spent the rest of the event outside in the freezing rain waiting for his friends who were still inside to drive him home.

In the past, WWE has encouraged their fans to express themselves. Vince McMahon has encouraged fans to bring signs to their support, or anti-support of his performers. This leads to the question; why was Tom removed? He was not involved in an altercation with anyone performing at or attending the event. He was not publically intoxicated. The only possible reason Tom was removed is that the powers-that-be at WWE wanted to protect the image of their Superstar Batista, who is presented as a fan-favorite.

The right thing to do here is to refund Tom's ticket price. In the interest of fairness, this should be the very minimum. The best case scenario is to give Tom priority seating at the next WWE event at HSBC to make up for this obvious mistreatment of a great patron and fan. This article will be sent to World Wrestling Entertainment as well as HSBC Arena and Tickets.com. The ball is now the court of these companies. Will any of them step up to right this wrong?

I am asking for the support of the Pro-Wrestling community to please let Tom's story be heard. Let's protect the right to express ourselves as fans, and paying customers.

[007]

It's kinda like an rpg, but instead of having just one thread where eveyrone posts you have your own seperate thread and you post battlle with others and like you do 3 or some # of posts and then someone decides the winner.

As for Tom...That is seriously some fucked up shit! How in the hell can they do that? That is so messed up I am just..no I have a loss of words for this.

Tom nodded, and decided that he had expressed himself enough. Minutes later, approximately 8 imposing looking men dressed in gray suits asked if they could speak with Tom in the aisle. Tom obliged and was then walked out of the arena, concluding in the gray suits tearing his ticket up in front of him. The explanation Tom was given was "The person renting this building tonight has requested you be removed from it". Tom spent the rest of the event outside in the freezing rain waiting for his friends who were still inside to drive him home.

In the past, WWE has encouraged their fans to express themselves. Vince McMahon has encouraged fans to bring signs to their support, or anti-support of his performers. This leads to the question; why was Tom removed? He was not involved in an altercation with anyone performing at or attending the event. He was not publically intoxicated. The only possible reason Tom was removed is that the powers-that-be at WWE wanted to protect the image of their Superstar Batista, who is presented as a fan-favorite.

The right thing to do here is to refund Tom's ticket price. In the interest of fairness, this should be the very minimum. The best case scenario is to give Tom priority seating at the next WWE event at HSBC to make up for this obvious mistreatment of a great patron and fan. This article will be sent to World Wrestling Entertainment as well as HSBC Arena and Tickets.com. The ball is now the court of these companies. Will any of them step up to right this wrong?

I am asking for the support of the Pro-Wrestling community to please let Tom's story be heard. Let's protect the right to express ourselves as fans, and paying customers.

That is some serious bull. But I have heard something like this before. I heard fans have brought "Cena Sucks" signs and they were torn up before going into the show.

I need your guys opinions on this because I'm seriously thinking about getting this. Do you guys think it's worth getting?

[GoldPhoenixRanger]

I think it sounds pretty cool, but I don't play X-Box so idk how long it would take to accumulate 400 points. However, it would be cool to play as Evan Bourne. If you have the points and don't mind spending them, I say go for it. Personally, I'm a Playstation 3 guy and even so I haven't bought the game yet, but it looks good to me!

Yes. This will atleast bring a more up to date feeling to the game considering a lot of wrestlers have been released since.

The decision to give Jeff Hardy the WWE Championship belt took place during a creative team meeting two weeks before the pay-per-view match at Armageddon. Vince McMahon first brought up the idea, which caught most of the creative team by surprise.

Ever since Rob Van Dam's drug possession arrest in July 2006 (who held two major title belts at the time) and all the drug related suspensions of September 2007, McMahon said they could never put a major title on someone who was at a high risk of being suspended because all of the creative team's major storyline plans would have to be overhauled not to mention that it would set a bad example.

At the creative team meeting two weeks ago, Stephanie McMahon was the only one to challenge Vince's idea of giving Jeff Hardy the WWE Championship, bringing up his own doctrine of a wrestler at a high risk of getting suspended receiving a major belt setting a bad example to the talent. Vince acknowledged the doctrine, but said in the short-term, his plan could work if Jeff handled the opportunity properly.

With WWE's rule of publicly releasing names of talent who fail drug tests putting enough pressure on them as it is, strapping the title on Hardy isn't going to make people say that they can fail a test with no punishment.

If somehow there is a relapse on Hardy's part before his title run comes to an end, McMahon made it clear he's immediately dropping the title as a failed drug test would of course mean the termination of their world champion because it's would be Jeff's third strike. McMahon said Hardy getting fired while champion would send the ultimate message to the locker room.

Well all I have to say is....SCREW OFF STEPH! And I don't mean screw HHH. Literally go screw the hell off and leave Jeff alone because if you won't I'll unleash a rainstorm of hellfire on you. Lol j/k. :p

TNA's Suicide Sidelined Again
Posted In: News

-- Word has it that Frankie Kazarian suffered a biceps injury at Monday's Impact taping and is expected to miss some more ring time as a result, reports ProWrestling.NET. Kazarian did a run-in as his Suicide character at the show. No word yet on the severity of the injury and how much time he will miss. Kazarian returned from the sidelines just a few weeks ago. One source said TNA officials have talked about putting another wrestler in the Suicide costume until Kazarian is healthy enough to work again.
