Possible Major TNA Hard Justice Spoiler
 
Source: The Wrestling Observer Newsletter

TNA Wrestling officials are trying to put together a match between Rob Van Dam and Jerry Lynn for next month's Hard Justice pay-per-view, which would renew one of the most memorable rivalries in the history of ECW.

I think this match would still be as great as the ones they've had even though they are now old. Jerry Still has great matches in RoH, and RVD can still move around in the ring.
Thoughts?

CSL 07-17-2010 08:50 PM

Re-hashing 11 year old angles and matches now. That's gotta be a new TNA record. I'm sure the match would be fine since Jerry Lynn has actually been cryogenically frozen since 2002 and only gets let out for his matches and Van Dam is Van Dam but come the fuck on.

BizarroKing 07-17-2010 09:01 PM

But isn't RVD scheduled to face Abyss at Hard Justice already?

Lock Jaw 07-17-2010 09:02 PM

Some people on the internet are probably getting a Hard Justice thinking about this.

As for me... still not a big fan of RVD.

Volare 07-17-2010 09:17 PM

Are there any other groups that need to be reunited or something? We can probably plot out TNA's storylines for the next 6 months on that information alone.

Snowden 07-17-2010 09:28 PM

Meh. At least they're going for authenticity.

Though if they book this, and Tommy Dreamer and Raven are all hugs and kisses, then its kind of ridiculous.

BollywoodSingh 07-17-2010 09:31 PM

If Lynn still has it, then I'm all for this. The RVD-Lynn matches are one of the few things I liked about ECW.

Droford 07-17-2010 09:32 PM

Only if Jerry Lynn wrestles with a mask as Mr JL and everyone acts as if they have no idea who it is..

I think this would bring legit to the table if it was a One Time and One Time only thing... I hate that they keep re-hashing old shit, especially the ECW angle... But the matches between these two were legendary...

I call exception to the rule here!

Mr. Nerfect 07-17-2010 09:46 PM

I'm on the fence. On one hand, I'd rather see RVD vs. Lynn than RVD vs. Abyss. I mean, we've got be honest -- it'll be one of those matches that we are seeing. Also, the whole ECW theme at least helps Hard Justice stand out. Especially if they don't go exclusively ECW with it, and allow Jeff Hardy and Samoa Joe to have a match, and that sort of thing.

I say go with RVD vs. Lynn. Maybe even keep Lynn around for a few months afterwards, to help put over some X-Division guys.

VSG 07-17-2010 09:52 PM

Who is Jerry Lynn?

CSL 07-17-2010 09:53 PM

The lead singer of Nickelback. He wrestles every now and again.

Maybe TNA should bring in these guys and have them attack Tommy Dreamer again. :shifty:

Re-hash or not; I would order that ppv to watch them go again.

Tracy Smothers will forever be the fucking man.

St. Jimmy 07-17-2010 11:05 PM

I don't care about the angle or anything else, if they can get that match together I would love it. The two can still go.

Keep it comin'... Wait, that's actually an insult to Jerry...

Mr. Nerfect 07-17-2010 11:26 PM

I actually want TNA to sign Little Guido. God, I love that little guy. Tracy Smothers being signed would not earn too many complaints from me, either.

CSL 07-17-2010 11:28 PM

He's a mess, he should have stopped a long time ago from a health POV :(

Mr. Nerfect 07-17-2010 11:32 PM

Are we talking Tracy Smothers? :(

CSL 07-17-2010 11:32 PM

Uh huh. Apparently he started wrestling again recently as well.

Mr. Nerfect 07-18-2010 02:30 AM

The dude isn't Ric Flair old, but he should probably watch his health.

Apparently he had some really serious health problems last year and was advised to jack it in. And not long ago somebody said he's wrestling again. So dunno. He's not as old as Flair age-wise but it doesn't sound like he's in good shape.

Mr. Nerfect 07-18-2010 02:52 AM

I wouldn't mind seeing Tracy Smothers given a job by someone in just a token sort of role. Give the guy some money to keep him from hurting himself. Even if he just had this Chuck Norris like "don't fuck with him" vibe about him. Bring in Little Guido, who I love insanely, and have Smothers as his non-wrestling buddy/coach. Guido in the X-Division is something I would love. I like the concept of a little guy with a big man complex who can kick as a lot of ass just because of how skilled he is.

If TNA is looking for ECW guys who can still work, get in touch with Super Crazy and Nova. I'm sure neither is what they used to be, but Nova was never a guy who needed to fly. Even as Simon Dean, he did little things that just worked and made him so fun to watch. If only he wasn't such a comedy character and was allowed to be something more.

I agree. There were very few things I liked about ECW. RVD-Lynn was one, Taz's reign as ECW champion, Awesome vs. Tanaka matches, Raven-Dreamer/Sandman feuds and not much else. Alot of the roster like New Jack, Balls Mahoney, Axl/Ian Rotten never appealed to me. I did like Lance Storm/Justin Credible as the Impact Players and I never liked Shane Douglas or Sabu to be honest. I just feel every match I see of Sabu he always manages to mess up in the match at least twice.

I thought that RVD was defending against Abyss too in some type of Full Metal Mayhem with "Janice" hanging above the ring, at least that's what I got from Impact. RVD-Lynn will be good but not as good as there 1999 series.

Chavo Classic 07-18-2010 06:19 AM

It's been over a decade since these matches; I dunno if they could pull it off.

We Want New Jack!

Fox 07-18-2010 08:38 AM

Might at well try and book Super Crazy vs. Yoshihiro Tajiri vs. Little Guido w/ the FBI, too.

Throw in a piece of shit main event featuring The Sandman, Steve Corino and a bunch of weapons and it'll be 2001 all over again.

Volare 07-18-2010 08:44 AM

Oh yeah, bring back Cyrus.

Xero 07-18-2010 10:39 AM

RAM JAM!

thedamndest 07-18-2010 01:01 PM

This would probably be one of the better matches TNA could have. I would hope they change the feud a little bit instead saying "Here's Jerry Lynn, now you guys are going to wrestle 10 matches for RVD's title." It will probably just be that though.

That's an old vid but yeah, he fucking hates JBL.

Swiss Ultimate 07-18-2010 02:09 PM

I demand that TNA return the Nasty Boys to ring-action.

The Pope 07-18-2010 02:10 PM

He was in CAPW for a while then he was never there when they converted into PWO. He was great on the mic!
