Million Dollar Mania - maybe, although there is potential for it to get better.
Cousin Sal vs. Santino - lame, but didn't waste too much time. Not Gooker material, although it may warrent an induction some day.
Hornswoggle... - about as good a way as any to end the storyline. Besides, the cage match on the one Raw was great and so was the Belfast Brawl at Wrestlemania.
Palumbo - too insignificant
Maywether - RD said the match was handled perfectly, although I beg to differ.
Colin Delaney - has been handled very well, though his in-ring ability leaves much to be desired.
La Famillia - weak, weak stable. Edge has never looked worse. And there's a touch of Eddiesploitation. Good possibility.

I HATE La Familia. It has made my liking for Edge take a beating but I don't think it's Gooker worthy.
If anything it would be that Hornswoggle wasn't Vince's child all along but they didn't really let it go on long enough (thank god) for it to be Gooker worthy either.
Usually all the worst stuff comes out around Summerslamish onward. Just wait until then I'm sure we'll have a solid list of nominees.

I'm really feeling the Million Dollar Mania as the 2008 Gooker. It seemed doomed from the beginning; And then theres the failing ratings, the unexcited $100,000 winners, the crabby phone system.. AND Then, Vince starts making them do some embarrassing act such as singing or making animal noises (how could you say no to someone who just gave you $100,000?) This waste of time and money is the perfect gooker contender IMO.
Plus, we'll all be able to pitch in and send Vinnie Mac a t-shirt that reads"I gave away the monnnney and all I got was this shirt and another gooker"

Colin Delagny: Jobber of The Year!!! La Famillia: Edge kissing vikki should be enough 1- no, its a legit contest. if it had this buildup and was all a sham, maybe, but even then, i'd say no. 2- no, not a lot of buildup, was short, and isnt a major angle, either 3- this was already gooker, and its kinda over at this point, so no 4- not a big enough deal, at all. so no 5- after those initial promos, i would have agreed, as well as show losing to such an annoying guy in a one off match, especially in what was his retur to WWE. i'd say this is the best shot so far, but probably not. 6- id say no 7- no. they are meant to be a heel stable we hate, and are doing a damn good job of it. and please, get over the fact that eddies widow is kissing another guy (in a kayfabe relationship, at that) for the most part, WWE has kept the crappy angles out of the major storylines. although not a whole lot has been sheer awesomeness so far, there hasnt been a lot of crap, either.

La Famillia - weak, weak stable. Edge has never looked worse. And there's a touch of Eddiesploitation. Good possibility. JUST BECAUSE IT INVOLVES A GUERRERO... DOES NOT MAKE IT EDDIESPLOITATION. Eddiesploitation is Rey winning a world title on Eddie's name. Not a Guerrero falling in love and inviting her man into her real friends and family. Although, I'll admit, it's quite a boring stable, it's NOT Eddiesploitation. Although you could make a case about it being Eddie's widow being a giant heel and making out with Edge, that's viewer interpretation. The WWE presented views are about Vickie giving Edge unfair advantages because of her love-blinded views.

The only one I can think of to be remotely close is the Million Dollar Give-a-Way, waste of time and money, perhaps, but it did change a few lives, so I wouldn't knock it too much.
And I disagree to anybody who would include Mike Adamle, he's improved over the weeks and WWE realizes what a screw-up he first was.

(Show v. Mayweather) no-The exaggeration of the money involved maybe as well as having Big Show return and lose as he did but not gooker worthy. 2. (TNA v. NASCAR) possibly- Anytime you involve non-combat figures in what is essentially a scripted combat exhibition it can be bad 3. (Santino v. Sal) Possibly-See above, mind you it seems to be a shortlived thing. Remember the Gooker is about build-up or beating a dead horse. 4. (Dem. Smackdown) No- Poorly executed one-time comedy matches with no build-up does not a gooker make. 5. (Rellik) Who? oh wait.....yeah.....no I'm sorry but TNA is hard to gookerize. Not because of a superior quality but it just doesn't seem fair, mostly because after a month he's gone 6. (Terror Dome)Possibly- A gimmick match? In purely technical TNA? Surely you jest! 7(BAH GAWD SE7EN!). (Black Reign)Definate possibility- Dustin Runnels as a crazy guy has been done. As a crazy guy and himself (who doesn't believe the crazy guy exists) this is actually a good idea. Then it was all about the damn rat 8. (Khali) No- Khali's bad, not crap. That's why they keep him on the taped and edited show. 9. (Hornswaggle Debacle) No- It killed the Little Bastard angle 'nuff said 10. (Super Eric) I'll be honest on this one, I haven't seen it I can't comment but I'm for any superhero delusion gimmick. 11. (WWE has its own NEWZ) Not really- Its not proper but it is damned convnient since TNA doesn't seem to update often. Also I hope it has a Mankind effect (puts butts in seats) 12. (Jillian sings) DINGDINGDING!- We have a good contender! We get it....she can't sing, now stop beating the dead horse. The original gimmick was making fun of Brooke Hogan and other popstars, now its time for her trainwreck phase. 13. (Burchill Incest) No- Simply flat solid no. It hasn't been mentioned even in passing, it is a dead angle, it is no more it has ceased to be, it has brought down the curtain and joind the choir invisible THIS IS AN EX ANGLE! 14. (Umaga gets Gangsta style) No- Its nothing big, and its nitpicky 15. (Jesse and Festus) No- Biscuits and gravy mad me what I am, and what I am is suprised that this even came up. Its shortsighted as far as gimmicks tho, but its done well. 16. (Big Daddy V) Him? No. His odd push to nowhere? Yes 17. (Colin) Give him time, I'm not saying no, just not yet. 18. (Rock N Rave) Good matches bad gimmick. 19. (Coach) I'd put in Cole before Coach, hes not bad, he's just unenthusiastic about the product 20. (CelebWrestling) Give it time, no fair crying gooker before show one airs. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Now for My predictions so far. La Familia-not for eddie, more for dragging alot of good talent into a black hole. Micheal Hayes- Yes its all backstage politics but its silly that he can come back Wellness Related Suspensions

Stone Cold Shark Boy is terrible. I am usually a big Shark Boy fan, but whenever I see him on TV now, I have to fast-forward. It's unbearable.

So far I'm going with Stone Cold Shark Boy, Million Dollar Mania, and the constant beatings of AJ Styles, the show ends the same every week, change it up a bit. The Smackdown Divas cardboard star on a pole match was a one time thing thus far, if anything I would go for the fact we have multiple titles per show now. Unless people stop jumping from show to show after the draft, unify the belts again. It's starting to look like it did when WCW got bought out and almost everyone had a title.

There are several contenders to the Gooker this year but my top favorites right now are Mike Adamle (who gets worse each and every week as if he is trying to suck) and Vince being flattened by a sign on last night's show (the million dollar giveaway was crappy enough, but, now Vince tries to have himself killed again?). There are a few others like Clinton vs. Obama (because of what was happening that night with the actual canidates appearing on the show) the Rock N Rave Infection (although it is very stupid and I hate the angle, it does allow Christy Hemme to come out half dressed each week on Impact and that's all that matters since she is that hot), and King Regal simply because of the crazy blackouts and the fact that he even was put in the position to receive a major push for no real reason at all and how he screwed it up. I believe that in the end Mike Adamle will win the Gooker of the year award since his replacing Joey Styles was totally unnecessary and he sucks so badly that it's no longer funny. Now it's just pathetic. The clincher was a few weeks ago when The Adamle called Tommy Dreamer (one of my heroes from the real ECW) the Dream Machine. The Dream Machine. If he had called Tommy this at a real ECW show, the fans would have killed him (I really mean that).
