But who to cheer for....*sratches head*...hurts to think....must cheer for Taker to win and remain undefeated...however, must cheer for Batista....cause I like him also....damn....WWE does this to me every time.

There was a strange man bleeding from his neck and he was escorted and taken outside where he passed out after trying in vain to get away. The EMS came and took him off. A women said that he had mental problems before. Very scary incident in the HSBC Arena.

this happend at smackdown someone tried to kill himself

Brother, it's a shame Castagnoli signed with WWE cause I know he could put some five star matches in ROH yet with Nigel McGuiness and Danielson, and Davey Richards. Same with Punk... I've learned not to be happy when I find out my favorite indy guys sign with WWE, because all it means is that they'll get shit matches. Well at least I'm happy for them for making more money. Like with Jamie Noble. He was my absolute favorite in ROH, but in WWE he does nothing but get squashed... he's never given proper time to put on some good matches.. he should be Cruiserweight champion, Shane Helms is doing nothing with the title! Give London and Noble twenty minutes on pay per view, let them go at it full throttle and I tell you the crowd would love the cruiserweight division once again. Oh well...

Does anybody, besides the top draws, even make decent money in WWE? I've read reports from wrestlers that it's not even that great of pay, especially when you consider the time and road shit. Not sure if that is so or not.

Well, i'm moving back up to seattle after christmas. Poor ass, starving college boy again. My funds are going to be very minimal and I was currious if there is an option, besides downloading shit, to watch PPV's over the net? Or, even watch cable TV over the net? Just currious if anyone has an idea. Paying for broadband AND cable/satelite is probably out of the question. I need the net, but was currious if I have expanded TV viewing options.

CM Punk is doing great in WWE, he's in ECW, sure, but given time, he'll likely move on to dominate Raw or Smackdown

lol, oh sure, he'll go over to RAW and dominate. It doesn't matter if he dominates, he could lose every single match on heat as far as I care, if at least he is allowed to put on good matches, which he is not in the WWE. WWE will never give Punk more than 15 minutes to put on a match, and it'll never be half as good as the ones he could be having on ROH.

We'll soon see! Any way, yeah this thread is the biggest and most dominant one on this site, at over 9000 posts and counting!

wwe is unable to put on good matches or give the proper guys the time to shine simply because it is just TOO DAMN BIG. first ecw buys the farm, then wcw falls, and where do all the top guys go.....wwe. before long you have so many damn people trying to grab an inch of spotlight that it just turns the morale into shit...it's not what they can do to help the buisness or the show...it's what they can do to help themselves and it just shouldn't be that way. IMO that's why tna has done so well. it's roster isn't very big, enabling them to develop who they do have into real superstars....but i begin to worry, as tna is starting to just snatch up people just because wwe got rid of them. (TOMKO TNA? SERIOUSLY? what in the hell were you thinking?) but....that's my rant. tna should stop signing up leftovers and wwe seriously needs to trim the fat. get rid of ecw. do away with the brand extensions...get rid of the greedy ass people and keep the people that really want to make an impact on and better the sport.

Quoted for truth.

I hope there will be a WCW one night stand in the future...........

I agree for the most part, especially about TNA.

i dont. whoes gonna headline? booker t????

all the good wcw guys either retired or are wrestlng in other companies.

THE VOODOO KIN MAFIA TAKE THE MISSION ON THE ROAD
Attend WWE live event in Knoxville, Tennessee on Friday night

TNAwrestling.com has learned that the Voodoo Kin Mafia have taken their mission on the road once again, this time attending a WWE live event in Knoxville, Tennessee, on Friday night.

The news spread quickly to the internet, and we phoned BG James – on location outside the arena – for his comments.

“In order to get Vincent Kennedy McMahon, Michael Hickenbottom and Paul Levesque to cease and desist the ‘dumb to the xtreme’ television skits, we will follow them to the ends of this earth – well, in this case, Knoxville, Tennessee,” James told us.

The TNA star told us that he and Kip James were about to attempt to purchase tickets to enter the event, however, the sheer enormity of the prices may put the mission at risk.

“We might not be able to get in, but we’ll stay here all night until we get what we want – we’ve got the cease and desist letter, video cameras and even the SpongeBob Squarepants blanket – because it’s damn cold out here!”

According to reports, the Voodoo Kin Mafia have been joined at the arena by a large mass of fans carrying posters supporting TNA.

“Good thing this isn’t a television taping,” James commented, “otherwise those fans wouldn’t be allowed to bring those signs in!”

AN UPDATE ON THE VOODOO KIN MAFIA AT KNOXVILLE WWE EVENT

On Friday evening, the Voodoo Kin Mafia traveled to Knoxville, Tennessee, to attend a WWE live event.

Shortly after TNAwrestling.com posted our first update, we received word that the Voodoo Kin Mafia did indeed purchase tickets to enter the building to personally deliver their cease and desist letter to those responsible for the “dumb to the xtreme” television skits.

In fact, TNAwrestling.com has learned that VKM made it inside the arena just in time to witness the main event featuring Paul Levesque! Following the bout, Levesque acknowledged VKM in the audience, but they were unable to follow through with their mission as he left the ring.

“Unfortunately, our attempts to serve Levesque were unsuccessful. We also noticed many of the fans’ attempts to stay awake during the main event were also unsuccessful,” James told TNAwrestling.com. “The good news is – the fat, oily guy was nowhere to be seen. At least the great fans in this city of Knoxville, Tennessee were spared that suffering tonight.”

James continued...

“Until we get them to sign our letter, our mission will continue. If those responsible for ‘dumb to the xtreme’ want to end this, they are always welcome to come to our live events in Orlando, Florida, to sign the letter. Plus, it will save Kip from driving the RV all over the country, because I can’t park that thing worth a damn.”



....

I think VKM is kinda dumb, but...."Vince, come out with your pants up!!" Was funny as hell.

I'd like to see WCW brought back and replace Smackdown. That way you'd have WWE, WCW, and ECW. Absolutely fake, but I think it would make alot more sense to have three seperate world titles instead of one ECW title and TWO WWE titles. I think that doesn't make any sense at all.

wwe doesnt have any sense period.

I would have liked to see Castignoli stick around for more of a future with ROH and CZW too, but ah well. Punk sticking around would have been nice, but I don't blame him for up and leaving for WWE, there wasn't much else left fot him to accomplish in the US really after facing the biggest non-WWE names and winning all of ROH's titles. And there'd have been no point in him going to TNA, because he'd just end up like fucking Low Ki, one of the top 5 wrestlers in the US, doing the job to nobody's in a shitty ROH-lite promotion. Might as well take the money with WWE while he has the opportunity. It's pretty much a given that he'll never have a WWE match as good as any of his ROH matches, but at least he has the challenge of becoming successful there, and WWE seem to be right behind him so it looks like it's going to work out pretty well.

And I don't remember how much the average midcarder makes in WWE, but it is reasonable. Not through the roof spectacular, but just a little bit more than most full time indy guys make, I think. It seems pretty high, but when you take into account that they have to pay for a lot of their own travel and shit, not so much. Although, top draws on the indy circuit like Joe, Raven, AJ, etc, generally make just as much. Well, Raven makes a metric fuckton more actually, his booking fee is the highest of any non-WWE wrestler in the US, quite a few grand, and he works pretty regularly, so he's probably making as much as WWE's top draws are. But for guys like Nunzio WWE is a Godsend, because there's no way they'd make half as much working indy promotions as they would being jobbers for WWE.

Anyway, Danielson vs Samoa Joe, Dec 8th, cage match, ROH world title. Holy shit. I don't think these guys need a cage, but i'm sure it'll be great nonetheless. The winner of that match will be challenged by Homocide for the title on Dec 23rd. Basically Homocide said that if he didn't win the title by the end of the year he'd be walking out of ROH, and that's the last ROH show of 2006, so, yeah. The night before Homocide's title shot, there's also going to be a four corners survival match, Homicide vs Danielson vs Joe vs McGuinness. Not to mention all the other insanely good matches that weekend. God, ROH can do no wrong. They're just so many levels above all other promotions in the US right now, it's crazy.

I dunno brother, to be honest, Joe's been disapointing me lately. And I have a feeling his Steel Cage encounter with Danielson wont be as good as their singles match, but oh well. Also, I'm not a fan of homicide, I'd rather see Davey Richards getting a push... but now he's being depushed... he actually lost clean to Matt Sydal? Oh Well. Danielson is the best wrestler in the world today, period XD

LOL! So true

Im so confused. There are only two matches for the ECW PPV. Wtf?

Yeah, i'm sure their cage match won't be as good as their singles matches, but i'm sure i'll enjoy it nonetheless. Anything that isn't a singles match is too gimmicky for me nowdays. I can barely stand tag matches to be honest, even when they're good. Too "gimmicky". Anyway, like you said, Danielson IS the best in the entire world (or at least tied in my mind with Low Ki, and maybe AJ), so you know, I don't think there's much chance of the match being "bad" as such. Maybe "bad" by Danielsons standards, but "bad" by Danielsons standards is still very good by everybody elses standards.

In my opinion Davey Richards losing clean to Matt Sydal isn't that big of a deal, but that's probably because I think Sydal is the fucking king, haha. He's like a less strong, more innovative AJ Styles Jr to me. I'm sure Davey Richards will start getting a more solid push sooner rather than later though. And I don't imagine Homocide will take the title from either Joe or Danielson, so he'll probably be out of ROH for good, which might make more space for guys like Richards. And also probably Roderick Strong will be the other guy they really start pushing, which i'm not looking forward to that much because I think he's mediocre, but anyway...


I just discovered all the goodness on Google video. Joe vs Kobashi, KENTA vs Low Ki, KENTA vs Aries, Joe/Ki vs Kobashi/Homocide, Joe vs Super Dragon, Super Dragon vs Homocide, the Joe vs Punk trilogy, Joe vs Danielson vs KENTA, the Danielson vs McGuinness title unification match, Low Ki vs AJ in his awesome debut, Homocide vs Corino, the DO Fixer vs Blood Generation 6 man tag, CZW Cage of Death 5 (lolz), etc. You all need to go check it out and see what you can turn up. My personal favourite ROH match ever is up there, Samoa Joe vs Low Ki. Legendary. It's basically strong style, and they even hold up the ZERO-1 banner after the match. HIGHLY recommended viewing. That shit is why Low Ki should be beating AJ and Daniels senseless each week on Impact and having an 18 month X-Div title reign rather than losing to youngin's coming up in the biz.

woa awesome brother, I'll be sure to check that out. I havent seen the title unification match, but I've seen Danielson vs McGuiness, the rematch, and that match is a five star classic, those two are really the best.
The problem I have with Sydal is that he hasnt paid his dues, brother. Comparing him to AJ is insane, brother! AJ was the best in the world for a long time, and the only reason he isn't right now is because he's toned himself down. Sydal's too small aswell... I cant buy him as someone who can beat Davey Richards clean, I'm sorry, lol, but maybe it's because I think Davey Richards is king Oh well.

Sorry for the double post, but really, I just feel like it since it's a completely different subject.
I'm going to a smackdown! house show today and tomorrow, right here in Portugal. The cards seem like crap with the exception of the Benoit matches and Jimmy Yang vs Shane Helms and Flash Funk's return, but anyway, I'm making signs now! Anyone has any ideas? I dont have any! I have to have at least one Benoit sign, and I want to have a Scott Steiner sign since I'll be wearing my big poppa pump t-shirt.
EDIT: Oh well, I'm leaving for the show now. If you guys have any ideas, I'll use them for tomorrow's show. Today, I'm going to take two signs: a ''BENOIT IS BETTER'' sign, to show pretty much every wrestler, and a ''TURN KENNEDY FACE : ) '' sign, a private joke to those who aren't marks.

I just want to tell that SVR 07 is the best wrestling game ever!!!
It's so addictive and the gameplay is not that hard.......
Money In The Bank Ladder match is the only match I haven't won yet and nor did lose...........

Yeah, it's a sweet game.

ECW's ppv sucked last night, wow, I'm glad I missed it!

So did you unlocked everything?
