I thought tonight was one of the worst segments of their "feud". Just the absolute ridiculousness of the "match", the stipulations, and the simple fact that they're booking a decent wrestler to lose to a leprechaun just makes it worse.
Anyone else agree?

Chavo needs to snap on swoggle and lay him out in the back next week. Drag him to the ring and then when Bourne comes to the rescue lay him out with a chair.
Hornswoggle gets taken off tv and Chavo finally gets a feud with a legitimate wrestler.
But knowing WWE this isnt going to end until next year's mania.

Ok, what type of match was it when Sgt. Slaughter was the host ? I missed that episode. Let me guess...it was a boot camp match.

They had Swoggle team up with "The world's strongest leprechaun" Mark Henry against Legacy on Slaughter's show. Chavo "wasn't ready to wrestle" so he had Legacy beat up Henry and Swoggle.

Ted hitting Dream Street on Hornswoggle was my favorite Hornswoggle moment--no wait, JBL launching Hornswoggle with the Last Call into the cage wall was my favorite Hornswoggle moment.

I've said it before and I'll say it again this has ruined Chavo the only way he can save himself is Kerwin White

The fans made a sound like someone punched them in the stomach when that happened. I don't think they expected them to really do it. I didn't mind it, since I spent a good portion of the match laughing at the ref treating the match like it was gravely serious, and holding the mask like it was a world title.

I hate these segments. Cringe worthy material.

I find it ironic that for the past two weeks, they've plugged the WCW dvd and all of it's failure's..then IMMEDIATELY cut to Hornswoggle.

This is hypothetical but IF Hornswaggle/Chavo wins the gooker, does that make Hornswaggle the first back to back gooker winner

Just like I say everytime someone brings up this, it's not like Chavo was doing anything of note before this and each time he's lost it's never been clean, so I don't see the big deal.

That's your opinion, the crowd likes it and so despite what many here think, Vince is going to cater to them first and foremost. Raw has never been about the wrestling, so if you're tuning in to see a bunch of wrestling matches, you'll be dissapointed every time.

I don't expect or want to see 6 20 minute matches but by the same token I don't want to see a midget beating up some jobber for 8 weeks in a row. Where is the pay off? It's just taking away time from other angles that you know could actually make the WWE some money.

You can't speak for everyone else, while you may not want to see it, it's a laugh for the crowd and so it'll stay. It's just a harmless feud and for now the payoff seems that Evan Bourne will be feuding with Chavo in the near future anyways.

I just never knew a bullrope match was won by tying up the other guy; I was always led to believe it was like an strap match.
Hornswaggle is fun, the kids like him. My son loved the match.

And this Evan Bourne Chavo feud makes no sense. If Bourne wins so what Hornswoggle beat Chavo 8 times whats the big deal? If Chavo wins Bourne looks bad for losing to a guy that can't beat Hornswoggle. It's silly booking but at least the odd kid in the live crowd smiles so it is all worth it.

You're absolutely right I can't either, but I can see that the majority likes it, so it's not hard to see why it's still going on. Vince isn't going to stop this just because some smarks are upset by it. Why does the kid have to be odd to have to enjoy this? It's entertainment, nothing more than that. If it doesn't appeal to you, fine but it doesn't make you better than those who are enjoying it.
