A few comments on Raw last night:

This whole God angle is stupid. I hope it's revealed it wasn't 'God' that was fucking with McMahon last night, it's Stone Cold Steve Austin. Sadly, I'm positive that will not happen.

The crowd chanting 'BORINGGGGGG' during McMahons long winded intro. The irony on it all is how much stock Vince puts into crowd reactions. Touche live crowd, touche indeed.

Can we leave Eddie the fuck alone yet? Chavo, nobody cares. You've had the talent your whole life but never 'made it', because nobody cares. Any gimmick you've ever had sucked, even the one where you are just the real life you. If you had half of the charisma that you have in wrestling talent, maybe then people would care. Leave Eddie to rest in peace already.

RVD's MITB Briefcase is fucking awesome, much like RVD. That dude that guillotine'd RVD from the Spirit Squad gets some serious fucking air.

RVD is the man, that move chain that ended with him using the trampoline to get back in the ring was awesome.

Spirit Squad still sucks though.

Speaking of awesome, how about that Charlie Haas/Shelton match? Excellent stuff.

Mickie is hotter when she's red-head, blonde isn't her thing. Trish looked awesome though, especially in that little outfit.

Mickie is still insane.

Kane. I love the fact that the 'monster' is back, but the whole 'May 19th' thing is fucking assanine. Kane, best wrestler to have the most shitty gimmicks ever since he took the mask off.

Carlito seems to be the one they are pushing as a face in his feud with Masters, that is cool.

Lillian > Coach

Umanga is pretty lame, but they are pushing him as a big time bruiser, and that thumb move is pretty decent. Plus he snapped Flairs neck.

Speaking of, let that be a lesson, HBK can carry anyone. ;)

No Torrie Wilson/Candice and not enough Maria makes Blade a sad boy.

I'm sure there is more this is all I can think of at the moment.

Yah the little god intervening for Micheals was stupid I hope that it is revealed to be someone else...

I thought it was funny when they started chanting borning as well..haha... and then Vince says...I assure you it's not borning... but you know in his head he was crying a little bit.

I agree abou the Eddie thing...they let Mysterio ride this train and Chavo as well...how lame. The guys dead and you suck don't try and use his death to your advantage.

RVD is the man...Spirit Squad make me laugh so I don't think they suck anymore.

Charlie Haas coming back was awsome... great match as well wowa.

Mickie being insane is cool...she's quickly turning into one of my favorite female wrestlers.

I like that Kane is a "monster" again as well but yah the entire May 19th thing to promote the movie is fucking gay.

Carlito and Masters should be interestesting. I haven't seen Masters do very much since joining the WWE honestly he doesn't really have much in the way of wrestling ability in my opinion. Carlito on the other hand I never had a very high opinion of and he has surprised me a bit. Anyway, I do agree they seem to have Carlito as face for this match since he spit in teacher boys face.

Coach = crap I agree with that.

Umaga...not really a fan...maybe because it sounds to much like Onaga who also sucks.

HBK can what? Clearly god saved his sorry ass.

Not enough TNA? BTW anyone notice that Lita always has those open tops on now and her boobs are almost falling out...I guess that way John Cena can continue to make bad jokes about her being a whore.

Eddie seriously needs to be left alone. This is why I'm not liking WWE and prefer TNA more. At least TNA storylines are original. But it really killed me when I heard that TNA fans were chanting "Boooring" when Sting was talking two weeks ago. Damn, people should appreciate that he came back and didn't go to WWE in which they probably would've made him weak like Goldberg.

Heh, thanks.

Nobody can speak out against Vince. Look at Christian, he wanted a better persona but Vince told him no. Who remembers his speech to TNA? Saying that he wants to be part of an organization that doesn't involve the owner dressed like a doctor, and taking things out of another man's ass. (I.E) The Jim Ross Surgery Skit on WWE.

one thing i hate about the wwe is that most of their matches have wrestlers who go out there and not even try and another thing is they have good wrestlers in their roster who they don't even use well like paul london for example he's alot better then most people there and they use him mostly on velocity

Perhaps, but you have to admit that it's nice to see him standing in a ring with a belt in hand for once. Rather then being someones pbag week after week.

Well, London looks like he and Spankey may be getting a push, but I do agree on some under-utilization of talent in the WWE. WWE likes big dudes, it's just that simple. There is a certain "look" that is watched for. And yeah, I do remember Christians speach and I was grinning from ear to ear when I heard it.

TNA has issues, no doubt. Though, it wasn't too long ago when I would organize my class schedules so I could watch WWE. Now, if I have to do laundry, sharpen a pencil, get some grocies; I don't even think about watching WWE. If I just happen to be watching TV I'll flip to a WWE program and see what's up. The second I see Vinces face I ALWAYS flip the station; no joke.

the boringg sting chant wasnt that bad. he has his fans, and anti fans..as every wrestler does. its not like everyone there was doing it. only some..and it only lasted a few seconds. anyway, i dont think they were board with"sting" but what sting was doing...talking. i think (and i also have felt this way for a long time) thats just their way of saying stfu and wrestle.

i wish they could get a longer show at an earlier timeslot.

i dont know what happened on raw. i havent watched forever. last time i saw it hbk and god were tag partners, lmao. i watched the first 15 min of raw..only to see vince running his mouth the entire time. then hbk ran out and kicked him (wow who seen that comin?) then he stood around flapping like a fish out of water like it was the best thing hes ever done...or maybe he got the holy spirit or somethin?...back from commercial and they had to show a replay..after that i chnged the channel.

i seen that giant fucker on sd last week. hes huge. the great kali or whatever hes name is. anway..did you see the move called longest yard? had goldberg and adam sandler in it...the great kali was in it. hes even on the cover of the dvd. nothing big..i just noticed it, lol.

Over at 411mania they have a very funny, very well put together list of 'wrestling terms' they made up, to describe common events.

IE -

The Ghostly Camera Man
Believe it or not, camera men are not actually "people," per se, but merely disembodied souls who can still operate the cameras. As such, should one find themselves in a private room with a camera "man," wrestlers will reveal their innermost secrets and most devious plans, foolishly certain that no one is there to see or hear them.

Further, should a wrestler be in trouble somehow (see: Stratus, Trish, RAW 11/21/05) the disembodied camera man can't help them, but merely watch. Finally, there is evidence that while the audience can see what the camera men tape, other wrestlers cannot until much later (see: The "Wrestlers Don't TiVo" Rule), so even if some secret is revealed via a cameraman, they will not be aware of said betrayal until it's too late.

Check out the rest here

It's really well done and veryyyyyyyyyyyyy extensive.

Agreed. It's cool that he's gotten his time to shine in TNA, and he deserves a nice run with the NWA title. Let's just hope he's not a transistional champion like Edge was!

TNA DVD News:
-- A "Best of Sting" DVD is in the works. It will be released towards the end of 2006 or early in 2007. Unfortunately, TNA doesn't have access to the WCW video library because WWE owns it.

A "Best of Christian Cage" DVD is also in the works. It will be released towards the end of 2006 or early in 2007.

A "Best of the X Division Volume 2" DVD will be released on Halloween.

A "TNA's 50 Greatest Moments" DVD is in the works. It will be released towards the end of 2006 or early in 2007.

A DVD on the girls of TNA featuring Jackie, Gail and Traci will be released on August 29.

I'd like to see how they can have the best of Christian and the best of Sting when they don't have access to the WWE and WCW library...neither of them have had that many matches in TNA...not enough to fill a dvd worth buying anyway.

Read the The Unofficial Glossary of Professional Wrestling...funny shit.

Thx for the link Blade.

You're going to that? Man, I hope you appreciate it, 'cause i'd kill to go to that show. It's going to be fucking nuts. It'll be worth going just for the crowd alone. You get the feeling there's going to be fistfights between ROH and CZW fans somewhere along the way, heh. At least they're putting them in different sections though. This rivalry thing is really good for pro wrestling anyway, and the show will be awesome.

And I hope the CZW guys get stomped. Somebody needs to throw a chair at Chris Hero's head.

Based on the not-so-subtle hints on WWE television and backstage discussion, PWTorch.com reports that there is some chance that WWE will bring back the DeGeneration X faction.

As with other recent WWE teases and storylines, however, one cannot be sure the company will actually go forward with such an idea.

And, due to HBK's religion, there is a limit to how far WWE would go in its reformation.

Due to their relations with TNA and WWE's disinterest in their ability, Kip and BG James would not be brought back for the faction. There is some possibility, however, that Sean Waltman would be considered if the WSX promotion does not take off.

Exactly, so I don't see the point of making either dvd?! Anyone seen the Raven DVD? What's it like? The fact there's no ECW/WCW/WWE stuff. Again, there was no point to make that one either.

He'll have one because the people behind it have a thing called "difference of opinion". Maybe you should look into getting one for yourself.

For the Christian DVD, remember Jeff Hardy's? His was released a little while after he came to TNA.

I cant wait for the best of Samoa Joe to be released. That DVD is gonna fucking rule. TNA's 50 best moments sounds good too.
