Personally, JBL is a decent champ, but he needs to let someone else have it for awhile. Cena with the belt, would be awesome, but who would he drop the US title to? As much as I know it's not gonna happen, the people love Scotty 2 Hotty, and would make an excellent US Champion.

---

Now on the RAW side, Batista is almost a shoo-in for the Heavyweight Championship at WM21. It's been hyped for some time now, so it's sure to happen. Evolution will split (hopefully Flair will etire after this. he can't even take a back body drop right. He lands on his shoulder every time. *rolls eyes*) HHH is a sucky champion, hands down. I would lke to see Orton win it again, though..Batista vs. Orton for the belt. Interesting, to say the least...well, that's all I got.

I wouldn't like to see Flair retiring I think he's one of the best performers there ever was "off-ring". He does great promos he's quite a character. As long as he stays off the ring he's great.

Personally I still enjoy seeing Flair in the ring very much, and I think that he's become really sad as a character now.

And about Cena dropping the US title, I don't see why he should. We used to see IC and US champs defeating World champs before, why can't we see that anymore? It doesn't even make sense, because the secondary champs lose the belt, and then get a shot at a bigger prize? It's illogical.

Sorry but I don't think anybody likes Scotty anymore,they just like that dumb as worm of his.
As for Flair I love him but he is 55 years old it's time for him to call it quits.He can still be a manager for Batista once Dave wins the wwe tilte because HHH does really need Rick as for as character goes.And the reason Rick takes back drops like that is because he broke his back in an airplane crash when he was in his early 20's.And as far as I know he's been falling on his back like that pretty much his whole career.

Scotty was cool with Grandmasta Sexay, but in singles he sucks. I think it's because they don't let him be his own singles wrestler, they continue to give him that shitty theme music and do the worm with that fucking old ass visor on.

If they let him be someone else, he'd be ok. Or if they brought back Grandmasta (he was back on Raw a few months ago then disappeared...it'd be cool to see him come outta nowhere to help Scotty win the belts or something).

Well, the IC title (The US title now) has always been the stepping stone towards the WWE title.

One thing I thought was stupid though, was when Randy Orton lost the IC title to Edge at Vengeance, than out of nowhere, wins the World title the very next month at Summerslam. talk about a over-push. see, thats the reason why no one cares for Orton. hes been pushed way to damn fast and had everything given to him on a silver platter without letting the fans know more about him. Orton will always remain one of the worse Champions of all time.

I dunno... I watch RAW and Smackdown with a few buds and we all like Orton and we enjoyed the fact that he won the WHC. The entire situation was cool... getting kicked out of Evolution after winning the title and the fued with Triple H. I certainly enjoyed it a lot more then watching JBL holding onto the WWE Title for 9 months.

I like Randy Orton but he was pushed too fast.The kid just wasn't ready to be champion yet,I don't think he has found himself character wise yet.I kinda felt sorry for him and the Rumble when fans started booing him and chanting Randy sucks.The kid is only 24 and will be a star but he;s not ready to main event just yet.And imo JBL has done no better then Orton the wwe just has choose to stick with Bradshaw and hope he got better the longer he has held the belt and to me he is no better then Orton.Neither one of them should have held the WWE title at this point in their careers.

BTW i saw this on another forum,it's a a rap video starring Murs and is John Cena's debut in a music video.The song isn't too bad and Cena is alot better then I thought he was.http://www.definitivejux.net/av/player.php?id=17&filetype;=highvideo

2 pieces of news I thought I'd share..

Did you guys like the Eugene/Forest Gump Wrestlemania Commercial? I admit when I saw it on the Rumble I got a good chuckle. Anyways, here is the first one:

WWE has apparently filmed a WrestleMania commercial featuring Triple H and Ric Flair that spoofs "Braveheart" and "Shrek." [WrestlingObserver.com]

and secondly,

WWE.com reports that the 2005 WWE Hall of Fame Inductees will be announced this Thursday on Smackdown. The inductions will take place on 4/2 in Los Angeles, California during Wrestlemania weekend.


So this Thursday, we find out who gets in the Hall of Fame. Any guesses? And do they put old WCW guys in there?

First let me say, love the new avatar and sig, very cool!

Second, yeah I loved the Eugene/Forest Gump commercial. Not being a fan of Forest Gump, I thought it was well spoofed, the part where Eugene Gump knocks the women/nurse out, was priceless, and Regal yelling, "run Eugene run" was good. Third, Trips and Flair spoofing Braveheart, that won't be as good, I liked Braveheart, but these two idiots spoofing it will suck.

As for the WWE Hall of Fame, yes the WWE does let in old WCW guys. Since Vince owns the whole WCW, and old NWA names, he can inuct anyone he pleases into the HOF. Case in point, Harley Race, was in the old NWA longer than he was in the WWF, and he got in, lots of old NWA/WWWF/WWF legends get in and also those old NWA legends were in WCW as well. This Thursday's SD looks better than ever, if the announcement of this year's HOF bound stars actually takes place. My guesses, Hogan, and Flair and maybe Hart, but I don't know. Alot of the old timers not yet in the HOF aren't on good terms with Vinnie Mac, so it'll be interesting to see.

To each its own I guess. I just don't like the way the Randy Orton situation was handled. giving someone with no personality and average wrestling skills a hard push like that could turn alot of people off.

However, I will say this, the WWE has definlly been on a role with Batista latly, hes been build up buitifully. what they are doing with Batista is the exact oppisite of what they did with orton which is a good thing. they're building him slowy, they are teasing a face turn with the whole Triple H/batista/World title situation. they're not rushing it like they did with Orton. This is why the fans are behind Batista moreso than they are Orton. and Batista isn't even a face yet. I would much rather have Batista as World Champion way more than Orton.

New WWE book entitled "Are We There Yet?," was released today. It talks about true, or mostly true stories from the guys about life on the road. I think I'm going to pick it up.

No Personality and average wrestling skills? Come on... you saying JBL has good wrestling skills... the guys finishing move is a closeline... everyone can do a freaking closeline. I've seen deadlier closelines from Ric Flair 30 seconds into a match...so yah thats when he is tired and has to fall down like a moron and take a 10 second nap. As for personality.... I think Orton's got one... just because he doesn't have a gimmick doesn't mean he doesn't have personality.

Cloathline aside, JBL has at least improved alot sence recieving his main-event push, he stepped up his game and has improved alot out there. did you see his Last Man Standing Match with Angle last week? great match, that match proves that hes gotten better. besides, his wresling style is Brawling. you don't have to be a great techical wrestler to put on a good match. I've enjoyed alot of JBL's matches with the likes of Eddie,Taker,Booker, and Angle. Randy Orton does nonthing for me. The ONLY match I've enjoyed out of Orton was the Hardcore Match with Foley. and that was only because it was a hardcore match. as for his personality, all I see is a 24 year old kid acting good and doing "babyface" things. anyone could do that. hes just not good at it.

Yah I saw the last man standing match... I wasn't really that impressed by it...in fact I thought it was kinda boring. The only thing I like about JBL is his mic skills which are good....unfotunately he doesn't have the wrestling skills to back it up. If you don't like Orton and that's fine.... I just don't agree with the fact that he's as crappy as you make him out to be. I reaize he's not the best but he isn't that bad.

I think Hulk Hogan is favourite to get inducted and I would love to see Ted Dibiase get in there too....He was cool. The British Bulldog is in the shortlist too....I think he should go in also

Vote for me to get into the WWE Hall of Fame!!

I'm trying to get Vince to book a match at Wrestlemania. Not just any match...can't give too much away, but lets just say I'd love to work a Wrestlemania with my buddy Dwayne one more time..

~Rip em

Man, thanks for reminding me about those two, I forgot about Bulldog and The Million Dollar Man. I think Stu Hart could get in, and the older Ortons, Bob Sr and Bob Jr could get in as well. Bruno Sammartino could as well, but he's on bad terms with Vince, maybe Bob Baclund. We'll have to wait till later tonight.

Hall Of Fame Inductees 2005
Mr Wonderful Paul Orndorff
The Iron Sheik
Nikolai Volkoff
Cowboy Bob Orton
Mouth of the South Jimmy Hart (YES)

I like them all for the HOF but Jimmy Hart was a shock and a great surprise. That voice....haha....and he wrote SO much of the music, truly cool they are bringin him back.

WWE SAYS MORE TO COME (they made mention of 'through the year'...)

The WWE will likelly mention more inductees on either Raw or Smackdown next week, or maybe both shows, Raw may announce the rest of the inductees, and SD will show them in the Raw recap for those who don't get or (God forbid) don't watch Raw.

The one that surprised me was Jimmy Hart. Any guess who the rest will be? I think these guys: Stu Hart, The Original Sheik (Sabu's Uncle, not to be confused with Iron Sheik), Hogan, and Bob Backlund.

Edit from mods: Please don't post inappropriate pictures. You know which one we mean, it's the one we removed.

More to come...

^^^LOL

My cousin just bought the tickets for Road To Wrestlemania.I'll ask him can he give me a small review after the show.Then I'll post it here.WM21 show looks alright.My cousin was telling me about the Barb Wire Cage Im kinda interested.Too bad I don't have cable

Haha.

I don't imagine the barbed wire cage will be that great. Just a usual cage, but both men will try climb over at the same time, one will grab the barbed wire and use it juice the other, or maybe both will, and that'll probably be about the extent of the excitment as far as the gimmick goes. Afterall, how much can you really do with barbed wire that's attached to the top of the cage?

...Well that's if it's anything like that razor wire cage match I saw.

Do you think they should have King of the Ring PPV after Royal Rumble?


If there going to have a tounament, might as well make it king of the Ring!!!

Feb already has No Way Out though.

anyways, as for the King of the Ring, I had the idea of bringing back King of the Ring in June as a SmackDown! Brand PPV. with only SD! Superstars being crown King of the RIng. With Raw getting the Taboo Tuesday concept, I think its only fair that SmackDown get its own unique PPV aswell, thus bringing back King of the Ring for SmackDown.
