Raw is in the same city as the VT/Boise college football game tonight? I think FedEx Field is out in the burbs. Everything in DC is really out in the burbs... I hate that stadium so much. Takes me an hour by train to get there minimum followed by a 30 minute walk. I had Skins tickets last year and stopped going halfway through the season. And trust me, more people are coming from the southern/Central/Western parts of VA.

NFL wins 10 times out of 10. No big deal.

It would be even better than Vince McMahon getting Rick Roll'd during Million Dollar Mania. Without a doubt one of the best moments ever on TV of any kind.

Serena and I went to the same high school at the same time. From what I can tell, we have a ton of mutual friends, but never really knew her. I have a feeling her and I's paths will cross in the next few months if she comes home to visit after this release. And seriously, if that happens, I will pretend to know absolutely nothing about wrestling after 2001... "Oh you worked for the WWF? Really?" ![8-)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/cool.png)

She shaved her head to get the role... she was willing to do it. She knew that divas needed boobs, not what she had. She knew that divas need to not have super hideous faces.
Come on people. Far more people have been fired for far less who needed their job much more.
Even though she was only around half a year, she probably made more money in that time than she ever did prior... and got more exposure which means she'll make more money on the indies for a few years. She may not make huge money, but she'll be able to earn a living.
Not everyone gets to live their dream. Sad, but true.

This is where piss-poor announcing kills me. Why wasn't the discussion? "CENA HAS OUTSMARTED YOUNG! HE WAS PLAYING POSSUM! YOUNG MUST HAVE NOT GOT HIM ALL THE WAY AND CENA, THE VETERAN, HAS OUTSMARTED THE ROOKIE".
How hard is it to do that?

In all honesty, I initially thought Kevin Sullivan had killed them. I was 22 and I still believed Kevin Sullivan was an evil enough of a person and hated Benoit to do it.
Then reality struck me a few seconds later.. and well... I figured it was a robbery gone wrong and I just was quiet. Same thing happened to me when Sean Taylor was finally announced as dead... just stayed quiet for awhile.
And then the murder part... it's why I can't get really into wrestling anymore. Benoit was my guy in wrestling. The one I had rooted for for years. The one I played as in World Tour and Revenge for probably a good 100 hours. It'd have been like watching Darrel Green ending up being a murderer to me.
(PS I am a Skins fan if you could not get that from the names)

The second one was awesome at the time because I really thought that they were going to do ECW right. That night made you hopeful... and then ECW on SciFi started. The original concept of keeping it a Northeastern promotion that ran smalll to mid-sized venues and ran maybe two shows per week and a TV taping was the way to do it right. Push a more wrestling based product, a more adult WWE product using the ECW brand.
I still wish though that they just had someone with the motorcycle helmet run in, DDT Cena and do the Dreamer/Raven pose. Never say anything about it being Raven... but damned if that would not have been better than Edge.

do you guys watch rambo and criticize how one guy shoots thousands? Only if doesn't reload his gun. ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) TNA really needs to hire a special effects guy because their fake bleed in piss poor. The gimmick white towel for every back bump (glass table, thumbtacks spot for anyone not Abyss) needs to go. And losing that much blood would make you go through shock. Losing more 3 pints is dangerous. RVD had almost 6 pints splattered on him. Yeah, but .. He probably drank 8 pints of koolaid earlier in the day to quench his thirst.

They gave us a Raven promo to open up a show.
The return of blood, violence, and wrestling booked for those that are ages 18 through 25 who also like to look at attractive females with large bosoms with little clothing on.

God... with each and every wrestler death like this... it makes it harder to be a wrestling fan. Something about watching people die so young is just too depressing for me.
I wish the best to his family.

I knew I had seen the term "NXT" before somewhere. Finally found it last night after 18 holes. Titleist has used the NXT brand for golf balls for ever. Why is there not a NXTer with a golf gimmick yet? Built in marketing opportunity!
Now.. on a serious side, did WWE seriously not see this coming? I could've told you this with ease that there was no way they would be able to sustain this for more than 3 seasons without completely destroying their development system. If they did this once or twice a year, yeah, it would work. You would have enough time to build guys and get them ready for the show. Gimmick pro-wrestling shows usually don't last.

It was retaliation for Kyle Broflovski killing Jesus. Kyle secretly thinks John Cena is the best wrestler ever... and because Kyle killed Jesus, although it was necessary for Jesus to spawn outside the prison cell to put the rabbit back in charge of the church, Jesus still was a little bitter. So stabbing John Cena was his revenge. //end South Park universe.

Raven because I assume he copyrighted his gimmick prior to going to WCW... and Tommy probably got good advice from Cactus or Funk about making sure he owned "Tommy Dreamer". Plus, those names were their creation.
The Dudley Boys gimmick was created by Raven for ECW. They have no claim to inventing or creating, and would have to have been required to have ECW sign over the copyright/trademark to it.

No one else was reminded of the end of "Scott Tenorman Must Die"? Definitely. My favorite end to any South Park episode just for how warped it was. Remind me to never f*** with Cartman again.

Eh... the filing sounds reasonable to me. That's why we have the courts. Let an impartial party sort through details.
