[thedamndest]

I would like to see a breast pop out. I don't care if it's Melina, Matt Hardy, or Drew Carey. I'll take it.

[Juan]

Melina :drool:

[Tb1]

Kind of a disappointing card, but if Christian returns all will be forgiven.

[Juan]

Any chance of a Regal/Punk match? I hope so.

[Nark Order]

I like the card personally but it all depends on what they do with it honestly.

[Krimzon7]

Edge winning a title is never a let down. Cena's match should be the pissbreak before the Rumble, Swagger and Hardy COULD be entertaining. I am longing for an MVP fix.

[Team Sheep]

Decent card. Looking forward to the 2 main event title matches, just out of curiosity. The possibility of Christian returning, and where they're heading with this Michaels/JBL thing.

[Theo Dious]

I just have a moment for this so I'll be brief.

Orton wins, and tomorrow he uses that as an excuse to why he can't be fired. Fans are getting on his side again, so it would be fantastic if they could have him keep heeling it up against the McMahons, and get an Austin-like push to Wrestlemania. Which could work if he DOESN'T CHANGE HIS WAYS. He and Legacy need to keep on going the way they have. Imagine a heel Orton beating Cena at Wrestlemania, and the crowd pops the roof off. I think it could happen. COULD.

[Theo Dious]

Also if Christian comes back I will need new pants.

[Theo Dious]

All Star game coming on. Back later kids. Somebody get a stream thread up!

[Team Sheep]

Any chance of a Regal/Punk match? I hope so.

I swear that match was announced the other day or did I just imagine it?

[SammyG]

who the fuck is Jack Swagger and why is he the champion

[FourFifty]

I swear that match was announced the other day or did I just imagine it?
It was talked about in the tipsters, but it wasn't booked.

By the way, is there a feed for this anywhere?

[Juan]

who the fuck is Jack Swagger and why is he the champion

He's "The All-American" American and because he's awesome. Get with it Sam.

[Legend Killer]

I think it will be an exciting Rumble, we will be talking about it for weeks.

[Lux]

Jeff Hardy will retain, I can feel it.

[Fox]

I love the internet and free streams. Otherwise I would be spending money on beer/food at the winghouse or beating myself up for spending $40 for it. Love.

[Nark Order]

Also, have we discussed the possibility that Jeff could retain because of Christian? Then Edge vs Christian at Wrestlemania and Jeff vs Matt at Wrestlemania after a Matt Hardy Royal Rumble win?

This of course, will probably not happen but I'd dig it.

[Juan]

Also, have we discussed the possibility that Jeff could retain because of Christian? Then Edge vs Christian at Wrestlemania and Jeff vs Matt at Wrestlemania after a Matt Hardy Royal Rumble win?

This of course, will probably not happen but I'd dig it.


That would be awesome

[thedamndest]

Is Matt even in the Rumble though?

[Fox]

How about a redux of WrestleMania X?

Matt versus Jeff (who is no longer champion) in the opening bout at WM25 in a grudge match.

Edge vs. Christian for the WWE Title in the mid-card.

Jeff vs. Edge or Christian for the WWE Title in the main event

[Theo Dious]

Is Matt even in the Rumble though?

Did you not see the thread about the only 23 confirmed guys?

[Juan]

This is gonna be the longest half hour ever

[loopydate]

This is the first PPV I've ordered since the colossal disappointment that was One Night Stand '06. My roommate's out of town for a few days, my girlfriend's working late, and I have nothing to do with myself for the night, so why not, right? I just hope it doesn't suck.

[Juan]

What? ONS 06 was the last good ONS.

[Lux]

Do we have a feed yet?

[loopydate]

What? ONS 06 was the last good ONS.

The moment they stopped the Rey/Sabu match was the nail in the coffin for me. It was the moment I went from "OMG, ECW is back" to "Oh, right. It's still WWE."

[Splaya]

I am excited to watch it because of the stream and for free. What are you guys watching it on?

[RawRocks]

justin.tv

[Splaya]

Sick part was it was in Detroit and I am from the Detroit area

[FourFifty]

Just got a call from a friend who's getting it. No illegal live feed for me! Seeya!

[Juan]

Make with the link, guys

[Splaya]

Just got a call from a friend who's getting it. No illegal live feed for me! Seeya!


Kind of ironic coming from the guy who claims to have won 200,000 from the WWE

[Londoner]

I reckon the rumble itsself will be good but the rest of the show will suck. Anyone got a link to this?

[Lux]

Can't wait :D

[HBKool96]

my mom got me the online feed on wwe.com.
i was grounded (why i haven't been here for a while) because dave caught me looking at his porn, but since i got an a on my english paper my mom is letting me watch it online.

[Lux]

Welcome to the party.

[Splaya]

HOLY SHIT, JUST GOT THIS FROM WRESTLEZONE.COM


Pwinsider.com is reporting that former ECW and WWE (http://www.wrestlezone.com/article/breaking-news-major-spoiler-regarding-royal-rumble-58129#) champion Rob Van Dam is backstage at the site of tonight's Royal Rumble, and he will in fact be participating in the event. Check back here for more information as it becomes available.

[Juan]

my mom got me the online feed on wwe.com.
i was grounded (why i haven't been here for a while) because dave caught me looking at his porn, but since i got an a on my english paper my mom is letting me watch it online.

Dave the asshole strikes again.

[HBKool96]

i think the only reason i still had tv was because i didn't tell mom about why dave was mad at me.

[Lux]

Splaya once again has missed the train :p

[loopydate]

I'm really digging this by-the-numbers video that they're playing on the countdown show. Very interesting, and it makes it seem more "real."

[Juan]

i think the only reason i still had tv was because i didn't tell mom about why dave was mad at me.

I guess he's not that bad since he didn't go and snitch to your mom.

[HBKool96]

i really hope hbk does the right thing tonight. he needs to leave jbl. a real christian, when there's trouble, understands that god will provide.

[HBKool96]

I guess he's not that bad since he didn't go and snitch to your mom.

i think it's he didn't want my mom to know.

[ClockShot]

Hey fellas, mind if I join this party?

[HBKool96]

so if two people are in the ring and they get each other out (like one chlostlines the other out and falls over) and then number 30 comes to the ring, would that person win?

[Splaya]

Making Orton the focal point :love:

[Innovator]

RKO! RVD! RKO! RVD!

[Juan]

so if two people are in the ring and they get each other out (like one chlostlines the other out and falls over) and then number 30 comes to the ring, would that person win?

dude, shut the fuck up

[loopydate]

LOVE that opening video. Orton looks like a million bucks right now. But still, it could go to a handful of people tonight. And that pyro display was pretty :drool:

[ClockShot]

Is this on right now. I'm having trouble getting a signal.

[loopydate]

Yep. Opening with the ECW Title match. Matt's on his way to the ring.

[HBKool96]

hey juan, it could happen. it's scripted, but sometimes mistakes happen.

[Juan]

the Grish

[Splaya]

Like in all honesty, I wanna just come back and watch at 915 when the better title matches are starting, but I have nothing to do

[Innovator]

True champion wears his belt to the ring

Amen Striker

[Juan]

that graphic for the ECW title match is pretty sweet.

[loopydate]

Old school championship intros. Nice.

[Splaya]

True champion wears his belt to the ring

Amen Striker

Better than Mark Henry eating it

[ClockShot]

Fucking Comcast. I order the HD channel and I guess it's blacked out. They better not double charge me on the bill.

[Fox]

woo hoo royal rumble opening match bitchezzzzzz

[Fox]

why is this jack swagger fuck on my computer screen?

[Splaya]

Anyone else's feed frozen?

[FourFifty]

Greetings, from my phone.


This is the first time that I've really seen Jack Swag, and I gotta admit, this kid is pretty good. Nice wrestling, nice look, but how is this kid on the mic?

[ClockShot]

On TV or computer?

[Fox]

He's not bad on the mic, 450.

Also, my first link froze but my second is going strong.

[rob11]

Can we post stream links in here?

[Juan]

Fuckin stream died on me. Anyone got a good one?

[rob11]

http://www.ustream.tv/channel/vip-sports

[Splaya]

Fox what is ur 2nd one?

[Innovator]

jesus matt has an ugly moonsaultq

[rob11]

Let me know if that stream works for you guys or not.

[steveironcity]

http://www.justin.tv/cestv

[loopydate]

Pretty good match to open the show, and Grisham/Striker is fast becoming my favorite commentary team. They're doing a great job of making a good match better. Grisham's call on the moonsault was fantastic.

[Fox]

Dude Matt is going to lose and he will then beat up Jeff after his match

[Splaya]

Rob if this stream works the rest of the night ill rep u later

[Juan]

http://www.ustream.tv/channel/vip-sports


:y:

[Fox]

Holy shit come on.

[FourFifty]

That Swag gave me a small hard on. Been a while since I've seen some real wrestling without popping in a dvd.

Love Striker's facts in the match.

So did Kidman teach Hardy how to do a moonsault? Looked like a fucking knee to the head.

[Fox]

mine is wmr-tv.net ... using stream 3 but the quality is not as good as others i have found

[rob11]

Rob if this stream works the rest of the night ill rep u later
Working on finding some backups because during a normal PPV night, I have to switch at least once.

[HBKool96]

a guy gave you a hard on?

[Fox]

Somewhere, Eric Bischoff is smirking

[loopydate]

50 Tipsters points to start the night. :) Called the wrong move, though.

[loopydate]

Heel turn time?

[Juan]

Matt is sad :(

[FourFifty]

Pwnd by the noob. Ouch :(


Now go watch Nick Bockwinkel.

[ClockShot]

ORTON!

Tonight is the night. The Age of Orton resumes.

[Juan]

I imagine the WWE backstage area to be like the Quad at a local high school

[RawRocks]

piss break!

[Juan]

Melina :love:

[HBKool96]

who's nick bonkwinkle?

[loopydate]

I know Melina's entrance is supposed to entice me, but I can't help but thinking every time I see it "God DAMN that looks like it hurts!"

[FourFifty]

I fucking hate you.

[Fox]

Melina does nothing for me

[Juan]

that's a nice set, btw

[Juan]

Melina does nothing for me

You are obviously a homosexual

[loopydate]

Melina does nothing for me

Thank you. Me, either. I've never found her attractive.

[FourFifty]

If Melina was a soda, I'd mt dew her.


But Beth Phoenix is my woman. She can rape me.

[Innovator]

Santino most over guy in the match

[Juan]

lol Santino chant

[Fox]

You are obviously a homosexual

Then why do I want to lick Mickie James' vagina?

[RawRocks]

LOL @ the crowd cheering with Santino

[Juan]

Then why do I want to lick Mickie James' vagina?

Fine, you're a bisexual :D

[ClockShot]

Ouch.

[Fox]

I hope Santino gets thrown out of the Rumble the second he arrives. That stupid annoying fuck.

[HBKool96]

i like santino because i'm also italian.

[Splaya]

LOL

Santino: Ring the bell, she gave up

[ClockShot]

YES!

[loopydate]

:eek: At Beth making Melina kick herself in the back of her own head.

[Fox]

ahahahah. I have never seen that before!

[Juan]

LOL that was awesome

[Impeccable]

ha...lolz....melina's leg!

[FourFifty]

HOLY SHIT!!!! THAT WAS AWESOME!!!!!

[Splaya]

So Melina kicked herself in the head?

[Innovator]

Melina...flexible.....giggity

[Fox]

why are you kicking yourself? why are you kicking yourself? why are you kicking yourself?

[loopydate]

This is one of the better diva matches I've seen in a while. So far, I'm not regretting my purchase. Of course, we've still got Cena and JBL in the same ring later on...

(+25, up to 75 points)

[RawRocks]

actually an entertaining match

[Impeccable]

What?

[ClockShot]

Bullshit.

[Juan]

MELINA WINS! Nice surprise there...

[Impeccable]

was a good match, but didn't expect that outcome!

[Fox]

isn't Gail Kim supposed to show up soon?

[RawRocks]

what? Melina wins?!?!?! boo!

[loopydate]

:lol: at them replaying the head-kick

[Juan]

So Beth goes on to feud with that Rosa chick and turns face. Sounds good to me.

[Juan]

isn't Gail Kim supposed to show up soon?

On Smackdown

[ClockShot]

isn't Gail Kim supposed to show up soon?

To smackdown was the last thing I heard.

[FourFifty]

Where's that psycho bitch Rosa when you need her?

Nice lucha style pin, but still, I would have booked that switch at Mania.

[RawRocks]

isnt Gail Kim the one that threw the WWE Women's Championship in the garbage can?

[Fox]

.....no.

[loopydate]

Where's that psycho bitch Rosa when you need her?

Nice lucha style pin, but still, I would have booked that switch at Mania.

Agreed on both counts. Although maybe they're going to build to a triple-threat at Mania instead? I've seen Rosa work a couple of times in FCW, and she's pretty good. I think she could hold her own, and having those two to carry the bulk of the match anyway, it could work.

[HBKool96]

i really hope hbk gets his head out of his butt and does the right thing.

[ClockShot]

isnt Gail Kim the one that threw the WWE Women's Championship in the garbage can?

No that was former wrestler turned Monster Truck driver Alundra Blaze/ Medusa.

[Fox]

omg so emotional

[Juan]

I'm so sick of this sad/depressed HBK we've been seeing for over a year

[FourFifty]

I'm gonna get me some tacos!












TAAAAAAACOOOOOOOS!!!!

[Juan]

Can't believe I'm pulling for JBL :nono:

[Fox]

HBM

[loopydate]

Is it possible that they could both lose? I'd be okay with that.

[Fox]

Cena will win come on people

[Splaya]

Rumor has it, that they dropped HHH being in at #1. You know who's gonna go 1 to win it right.



Let the age of Orton continue

[Juan]

Cena will win come on people


Yeah I know, but thinking about it makes me as sad and depressed as HBM is.

[RawRocks]

WTF Undertaker

[ClockShot]

Hellooooooooo.

[Juan]

HOLY SHIT

[Splaya]

TAKER VS HBK AT MANIA.

That simple stare down sent chills down my spine

[loopydate]

Good line. Not the best delivery, but a good line.

[RawRocks]

what the hell was that about?

[Juan]

HBM/Taker at WM25!!

[Juan]

I hate Lilian Garcia, by the way.

[RawRocks]

TAKER VS HBK AT MANIA.

That simple stare down sent chills down my spine

that would be awesome :yes:

[thedamndest]

That moo in JBL's theme is the reason I can't take him seriously as a heel.

[Theo Dious]

I'm calling it right now: Shawn fails, then enters the Rumble under a mask as El Nino Heartbreako.

[Splaya]

I think it would be interesting to see if Michaels tries to get involved and gets sent to the back.

[DaVe]

Finally! I'm awake and have found a feed.

Can someone run me down of the events so far? Bahgawd Taker and HBK?

[Juan]

I'm calling it right now: Shawn fails, then enters the Rumble under a mask as El Nino Heartbreako.

:lol:

[loopydate]

That moo in JBL's theme is the reason I can't take him seriously as a heel.

I was just about to post the same thing. It's just so ridiculously comical.

[thedamndest]

*SERIOUS HEEL SERIOUS HEEL SERIOUS HEEL MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SERIOUS HEEL*

[Theo Dious]

sighs... Apparently they ARE saying Boourns.

[Juan]

Finally! I'm awake and have found a feed.

Can someone run me down of the events so far? Bahgawd Taker and HBK?

Swagger b. Hardy
Melina b. Phoenix for the Women's title

[Fox]

BOOOOOOO CENA

[Innovator]

is it me or not really a big pop for Cena?

[loopydate]

I hate hate HATE the "U <s>C</s> Me" merch. It looks like it was designed by an eight year old.

[Splaya]

Hard to believe last year Cena entered at #30 last year

[Fox]

Well it is marketed for 8 year olds

[Impeccable]

Cena's t-shirt is shit.

[Theo Dious]

You know, this "announce them when they're already in the ring" thing pisses me off.

[Theo Dious]

RICH history! GET IT!!!

Cole is an ass.

[Fox]

how is it good for business to have so many fans hate both men in the ring wrestling for the world title? so fucking stupid

[FourFifty]

Gotta be honest- I kinda don't care about this match. I should have brought by Andre the Giant dvd with me.

[Splaya]

I hate hate HATE the "U <s>C</s> Me" merch. It looks like it was designed by an eight year old.

Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if the merch team was run by 8 year olds. The creative team is run by monkeys

[loopydate]

Well it is marketed for 8 year olds

Sad as that is, it's a good point.

[Theo Dious]

Cena's t-shirt is shitstained.

:shifty:

[Splaya]

You know it's amazing, I could be playing Call of Duty right now instead of watching this shit.


Wait a minute, I'm watching it on the computer.










See ya in 30

[Juan]

Cigarette break

[thedamndest]

Shawn looks like Ted Nugent in that shirt.

[Fox]

Cigarette break

Word.

[ClockShot]

Dueling chants.

[Juan]

Cena is sooooooo controversial :roll:

[loopydate]

I wish I had my 360 on a TV other than this one so I could be playing SvR instead and participating in a match that I actually give a damn about.

[RawRocks]

Cena as a heel may work in the near future

[Theo Dious]

I like how Shawn is just standing there. Good way to play it.

[Theo Dious]

I'm watching mostly in the hopes that JBL walks off with the title. The only reason I think they might do it is that it would do a lot for HBM's angle right now.

[thedamndest]

So if Edge/Jeff goes on after the Rumble, Christian definitely debuts.

[ClockShot]

RAM JAM!

[Theo Dious]

So if Edge/Jeff goes on after the Rumble, Christian definitely debuts.

Agreed. Though I can see Christian showing up IN the Rumble as a supposed one-off before interfering.

[Lux]

COME ON JBL!

[Innovator]

I WANT A FUCKING RAM JAM

[Theo Dious]

Incidentally, I fucking hate the chatrooms that always show up with streams and I wish you could make them go away.

[Theo Dious]

I WANT A FUCKING RAM JAM

I got your ram jam right here in my pants.

[Splaya]

The way this is going they are going to dedicate an hour and 15 to an hour and 30 to the rumble.

I will be ecstatic if that is the case

[loopydate]

POOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUN-SUH!

[Juan]

Holy crap it's hailing outside

[Lux]

It doesn't matter how much logic there is behind a title change, if Cena has the title its all about Cena to the writers and vince :nono:

[thedamndest]

I wish I had to take a shit just so I could say, "I have to take a shit," rather than watch this match and it would be true.

[thedamndest]

VINTAGE CENA!

[Fox]

oooh angry Cena

[Theo Dious]

You know, something just occurred to me, maybe HBM is just a decoy, and someone else is set up to come in for the actual interference?

[Impeccable]

DAMMIT!!! Clothesline from hell!

[Innovator]

CMON! IF THAT WAS STAN HANSEN THIS MATCH IS OVER

[thedamndest]

VINTAGE BRADSHAW!

[Impeccable]

Who the fuck kicks out from that

[Fox]

and the Hulkster kicks out!!!


wait... that's not Hulk Hogan.

[thedamndest]

VINTAGE SHAWN MICHAELS LOOKING CONFLICTED!

[Impeccable]

REF BUMP!!

[Fox]

now is the moment when HBK will "choose"

[ClockShot]

WHAT WILL MICHAELS DOOOOOOOOOOOOO?

[Juan]

Vintage ref bump!

[Impeccable]

VINTAGE CHIODA!!

[Splaya]

Ref bump....


Give him SCM HBK

[thedamndest]

VINTAGE REF BUMP!

[Theo Dious]

KICK HIM!

[Fox]

Somebody said in a thread awhile back that this would happen. HBK will superkick one of the two men.

[loopydate]

I wish I had to take a shit just so I could say, "I have to take a shit," rather than watch this match and it would be true.

I actually do, but I can't now, because now I'm actually interested in what HBM does.

[thedamndest]

VINTAGE JUAN BEATING ME!

[Juan]

let me guess, HBM goes for the superkick but misses Cena and kicks JBL

[Impeccable]

typical

[Theo Dious]

KICK HIS MOTHERFUCKING HEAD OFF!!!!!!!111

[Splaya]

KILL CENA. I PREDICTED HIM TO WIN TIPSTERS BUT I DONT CARE


KILL CENA

[ClockShot]

KICK HIS HEAD OFF!

[HBKool96]

yes!

[RawRocks]

HOLY CRAP!

[Fox]

kick Cena!!!

[Theo Dious]

KICK HIM!!!

KICK HIM AND DRAG BRADSHAW ON TOP OF HIM!!!

[loopydate]

Never mind. That was really predictable.

[Fox]

YESSS

[Theo Dious]

YES!!!!!!!!!!!1

[Impeccable]

YES....now put JBL on Cena....please

[RawRocks]

HOLY CRAP X2!

[thedamndest]

ZOINKS!

[HBKool96]

no!

[ClockShot]

YES YES!

[Splaya]

I LOVE HBK

[Fox]

now he pulls JBL over Cena for the 1-2-NO! Cena with the F-U, STFU, tap out! CENA WINS!!!

[Theo Dious]

FUCK YEAH

[Impeccable]

Come on ref!!! Fucking count it!

[Splaya]

DO IT


COUNT THE 3

[ClockShot]

SOMEBODY COUNT!

[Theo Dious]

THAT. WAS. AWESOME.

Now lets not fuck it up by having Supercena come back.

[Impeccable]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOo

[Splaya]

WHERES HEBNER

[Juan]

Pretty obvious now that Cena will kick out

[FourFifty]

BWA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!

If this ends the match, it's awesome!

[Theo Dious]

Fuck.

[Impeccable]

FFS

[Fox]

I'm guessing we have a Clothesline from Hell attempt that is reversed into the FU or STFU for the win.
