I'm loving how intense this Finlay vs Lashley angle has become in just two short weeks. We've seen these two guys go through everything to try to beat each other up, and I'm loving the ferocity! Pretty cool stuff. :y:

This has pretty much made me like Finlay again after Somebody's Gotta Die totally made me hate him.

Yeah, it is pretty bad ass. Reminds me of the feuds that midcarders used to have in the attitude era.

Also, Lashley flipping car gave me flashbacks of Big Show/Bobcore.

Lashley is a Beast. I'm starting to like Finlay now. I like their hatred towards each other and Lashley's spear in the entrance section was awesome. Hope they make this into a "put them on the map" type of feud.

I'm glad Lashleys getting a proper feud. This is all you really need for a good storyline (none of that soap opera shit) two guys who want to beat the shit out of each other.

Finlay is awsome. He's probably one of my favorites now.

I can see Finaly getting cheered much like how Austin started out.

They certainly seem to have great chemistry and I really hope they get a one-on-one match at WM. Would be nice to have one match that will have a decent build-up.

Yeah, next week at smackdown they should fight to another no contest, so neither of them gets in money in the bank. Give them an intesne one on one match and give the other mib spot to another wrestler

I just want to see Finlay v Kennedy.

"I'm a fighting Irish bastard. Just don't say that it my..."

YESSSS! I was totally going to post this.

It's good for Finlay right now because it's proving that even though he's 50 and has been retired for 5 years, he can still go toe to toe with one of the strongest guys in the industry.

It's good for Lashley because it's showing that even though he's relatively new, young, and very green, he can still go toe to toe with a very good wrestler who is probably one of the toughest guys in the industry.

I am really loving this.

Finlay, despite his age, is fucking Gold.

Most of the time, old guys in the ring=instant bad. Finlay's got it, even if the fighting Irish bastard shit is a bit thick. Some people still have it. Michaels is one of the only other exceptions I can name.

Remember the name.

Finlay vs Kennedy would be the battle of the Iris. I see them teaming sometime down the road, though.

Anyway, he's the best 50 year old wrestler I've seen (never watched Terry Funk much), and he's definitely impressed me. Hope this match makes it onto the Wrestlemania card. Have Teddy Long give up and like, I dunno, put them in a boiler room brawl. :lol:

Definately loving this.

So much potential in this feud and in Burchill/Regal.

SmackDown is pumpin' these days. It's the first time in years I've watched it every week and I can't get enough of it. Really preferring it to RAW.

I have to agree, this is SmackDown!'s (and WWE's to be honest) best non-main event feud in a LONG time. I've been a fan of Lashley's ever since he debuted (I was always a Lesnar mark and Lashley reminds me of Lesnar a lot) and I'm glad he's getting a good push. If they don't just end it, this could really kick-start Lashley's career.

As for Finlay, he's been GREAT ever since he returned. I'm surprised he can go as well as he does considering his age. He's also the first new (to WWE) brawler in a long while.

Finlay vs. Lashley should be a Mania match. If not (it would be stupid if they didn't) I would hope they would give them a match at SNME.

One of them probably is going be in money in the bank, which is unfortunante since i think it would add to the mib match if they were both in there, or they had there own match and a mib spot went to someone else

Actually, I bet they'll both get in. No other SmackDown! wrestler is in the match yet, so if they both go in because of the double DQ then there would only be one more qualifier.

Cool hope so, i think they would both add something different to the match.

Yeah then we wouldn't see a big match on a PPV Between then until the May show... which is? I dunno.

They should have a big one on one 25 minute match on PPV to end the feud in a month.

Lashley is really Goldberg after he fell into a tar pit.

I'd rather see neither of them get into MitB.

The way the feud's escalating, I'd like to see them essentially end up (Inadvertantly) forfeiting their rights to go into MitB, and just have a serious, oldschool, GRUDGE MATCH.

They've laid the foundation. Finlay was in a situation where Lashley nearly fucking KILLED him, and this is something that kinda makes you feel a bit like holding a Grudge. A big grudge. The kind of Grudge that can only be resolved by marathon gay sex or by beating the shit out of the other guy until he can't walk.

Which brings me to the match they should have:

Last Man Standing.

I haven't seen a feud so perfect for this in ages. I want to see these fuckers beat the shit out of each other until only one of them walks off.

This is how they should go, IMO.

And if not, Brokeback Mountain 3: When Whitey met Leroy.

I'm sorry. We're you trying to say "wired" or "weird"? Both might be applicable, but they mean very different things, so I'd like to know what you actually meant.
