Cyndi Lauper "Guest Starring" on RAW this week.
Hope it leads to her going into the Hall of Fame. Like I've said, her, Tyson and Mr. T are first three celebrities that should have gone in based on merit. |
Hey, you don't know him, and this is crazy. We need a bald rookie, book Maven maybe?

Wow! Three horribly fake sounding names. It's obviously Will Frank. :shifty:
|
Yeah. There's no way someone named Daniel Crummett exists.
:shifty: |

I might hop on that AJ loving wagon.
|
Sorry, we're full. Should check out that other bandwagon for loving Brooke Hogan. It's pretty empty and could use some jumpers.
|
Vince McMahon really bothered me on RAW this week. Is anyone else in that boat?
|
You mean mocking Good Ol' JR's Bells' Palsy?
|
Feels like that's a DAMN iNATOR post.
|
Yeah, that, and basically saying Big Show is shit, Tensai is shit, Daniel Bryan is shit, Sheamus is shit, etc.
|
Well, it IS the "shoot era"......
|
Saddest/scariest thing is that Vince probably takes the most care into crafting his own segments, so he thought they were gold and got the talent over...
|
I just read the Impact report, and it sounds pretty decent. Austin Aries has the choice to give up the X-Division Title and challenge Bobby Roode at Destination X. Part of me is kind of hoping they go all the way with Aries and have him win their World Title.
Roode could then be pissy that he's not in the Bound For Glory Series, and he pays someone to keep attacking James Storm's opponents, costing Storm points for losing by DQ. Roode is revealed as being behind it, and we do get Roode vs. Storm at Bound For Glory, but it's just not for the title. Aries defends the World Title against the winner of the Bound For Glory series, which, in my dream world, would come down to either Samoa Joe, Magnus, Kurt Angle or Christopher Daniels. |

Have been hearing TNA is pretty good lately. Might actually give them a chance.
With my/their luck I'll tune in on the week they decide to finally put Brooke and Hulk vs. Eric and Garrett into motion. |
I am going to their house show tomorrow and paid for top seats with the meet and greet option. Guaranteed to meet Kurt Angle, Bobby Roode and Jeff Hardy (lol). Might try to sneak a few pictures with them.
Anything that TPWW wants me to ask them? I am fairly certain Hardy will be high as fuck though. |
Yeah. Ask him to say the alphabet backwards.

Apparently the internet still loves Christian. From WWE.com:

Hahaha. AJ's getting as much as Big Show, Sandow, and Kane combined.
Apparently a lot of people dig crazy chicks. |
lol. What is with Christian winning Seems so wonderfully random.
|
Never thought I would say this but, I miss this guy on my TV.

I don't remember the last time a heel was booked as well as Mark Henry a little bit before and then during his title reign.
|
His reign as ECW champion was pretty good too
|
Loved his mini-feud/series against CM Punk just before he left.
|
It is like a "refined" run similar to when he started the whole "Silverback" thing. I was a fan of that too, and it looked like it was headed to good things for Henry. Then he got hurt again.
As usual, he will return as a face for awhile. Such is the pattern in Mark Henry's career. Come in as a face > turn heel > get injured Lather. Rinse. Repeat. |
I can't remember if I enjoyed his ECW title reign or not. I do remember that it seemed like they were just throwing the title on him because it was a third rate title for what amounted to a glorified developmental brand. He was the "big fish in a small pond".
I loved the fact that they had him go Orton clean twice to win and retain the World title. I'm a huge Orton fan but that's how you build a monster heel to the top. Take one of your top faces and just have him try his best and fail to topple him. I wish they could have built it to a big climax with Orton finally overcoming Henry. Could have been a classic moment. |
Just started watching Smackdown. Why was I expecting AJ's explanation to be:
"There's a very simple explanation... I did it... for the Rock" ? |

Imagine you are a complete WWE mark, you tune into raw the day after chris benoit dies and find out that Vince didn't die in the limo fire but is alive, you are estatic...only to hear him say moments later that Chris Benoit is dead.
|
Might be a small sign of the future or just WWE prioritizing hyping a ppv but the 3 hour RAW (45 mins) had less wrestling overall than the normal RAW (52 mins) a week before.
The extra hour didn't add anything extra in terms of in-ring stuff. In terms of ratings breakdown, the Punk/Bryan promo gained viewers while the JR skit lost viewers. http://wwemedia.tumblr.com/post/2510...ings-breakdown http://wwemedia.tumblr.com/post/2509...-seconds-of-in |

At Fully Loaded 2000. Holy shit I forgot about Rikishi jumping off the cage.
The finish to Kurt Angle/Undertaker and HHH/Jericho are engraved on my mind for some reason though. |

At the TNA house show, done with the meet and greet. Garrett Bischoff looks like a slap-worthy douche but is pretty cool irl. Matt Morgan was an ass though, did a quick round and didn't sign anything, let alone take pics. He even ignored a disabled kid :nono:
|
Bought a "brown bag" that's teal in color. It had random DVDs, a TNA impact shirt, a 10 year slammiversary program with pages for each person which came out real useful for autographs.
Oh also a "random" action figure which was either of Foley or Nash (ex-TNA). Ended with Foley here, no complaints. |
Good god Velvet Sky is so fucking hot. Took pics of most people with a stupid old point and shoot as TNA does not like DSLRs :n:
Angelina Love is an ugly, anorexic man. |
Lol Jeff Hardy randomly showed up at the ramp entrance, did his hand motions and left. Fairly certain only 10ish people noticed.
|
OF COURSE I get to sit surrounded by sweaty, obese, smelly people.
|
Random guy with microphone announces 15 min countdown to the show and immediately Lady Gaga's Bad Romance blasts through the arena speakers.
|
Same random guy gets in the ring and announces first 20 people to rush to the merch stand can buy the VIP elite pass for 50 bucks. 40 people run like crazy lol
|
OH SHIT SIGN GUY IS HERE
|
Sign guy is like 5 seats next to me. Def gonna try to take a pic with him. Random TNA guy pointed him out to everyone and most people had no idea who it was :'(
|
"We want steroids" chant during Rob Terry-Doug Williams match
|
Doug Williams wins after a low blow into a small package and gets cheered. Is he a face or heel? No idea#tna
|
He's not Rob Terry. #answers
|
Winter/Angelina Love vs Tara/Velvet Sky. Sign guy had a sign for everyone and Tara came over to talk to him.
|
Obese guy next to me got warned for shouting "I'll make you squirt hard" nonstop to Velvet Sky. Finally shuts up. Thank god.
|
"Pull her hair out" chants going on. Wow rough crowd.
|
Kid Cash vs Hernandez. Cash gets in an altercation with sign guy, snatches his sign and tears it up. Loved it.
|
Guy next to me fighting with security :'(
|
Quote:
|
And that he threatened to make the security guards squirt hard.
|
Crimson lost to Morgan and went to sign merch immediately.

"Bumped" into Velvet Sky on the way to the restroom. She looks different without makeup on but still the hottest TNA knockout by far.
|
Oh god just realized that bloke she was with was Angelina Love.. Stuff of nightmares right here.
|
Borash announced a Slammiversary rematch for the tag titles. Kurt Angle's in th house :cool:
|
Gunner vs Garrett Bischoff in a "Who gives a crap?" match
|
Crowd blew the roof off for Angle. First time experiencing a massive pop live.
|
Great match. Went easy over 20 minutes.
When did Hardy debut this new theme? It is even worse than his "Modest to the top". Also he took over 2 minutes to make his entrance and is high as fuck. He missed a girl's hand when going for a high five and hit her boob. |
Good match again, managed to get a pic with Bobby Roode and Sign Guy before leaving. I will give TNA this- they put up a heck of a house show.

WWE always seems to be a little bit ahead of the compeition when it comes to music. It's like a song is on at WrestleMania and then it's on every sporting event for the year.
That we are young song was used for the NBA finals. |

I really want Mark Henry to come back as a babyface bad-ass. Has he ever played that role before? Every time the dude has been half-way credible has been as a heel, from memory. The dude is getting up there in age, and can't be depended on as a long-term babyface investment -- but as a dude who can win a World Title, spend a few months being cheered before stepping out of the spotlight, but perhaps still doing public appearances for the WWE? Henry could nail that.
It would all depend on just how big a Mark Henry return would be; but I could see the dude getting a pretty nice return pop. |
The problem is they'd water him down as soon as he got over, they did the same thing with Orton and Sheamus which is a shame because i think Henry could play that role well.

Borash mentioned there were going to be a few shots for Impact but probably as recaps from live events.

I don't know man. Have no clue as to how I subscribed to them.

Some Gaylord go make a No Way Out thread so I can ask some other Gaylord for a stream because I'm too much of a lazy Gaylord to go find one for myself.
|
Done. Ignore XL's FakeThread.
