So, Smackdown sucked ass last night, and I am done with it! This is complete and utter crap! Strip the Undertaker of the belt, that stupid bitch! I wish Vince would come back and fix his General Managers, cause they're doing some stupid shit, imho!

The guy Finaly wrestled last night, someone help me out, why is he so familiar to me? Was he TNA or ROH?


Also, it seems that Ashley is going to be in trouble with the Feds:

-- In the latest issue of Rolling Stone magazine, it alleges that WWE diva Ashley Massaro worked for Los Angeles escort service Bella Models, which is run by Michelle Braun (aka Nici). The story notes that its not just Braun making the claim, rather the story notes that the FBI tracked emails in which Bella Models made travel arrangements for Massaro and other clients. It also states that

"All I do is make the introductions between famous girls and rich guys who want to meet them," Braun told Rolling Stone. "I think the rates I charge are justified just to meet these women, even if nothing happens."

FBI papers omits the names of the men who allegedly paid for services, yet list the names of Massaro, other Playboy models, a Maxim model, and adult film stars. Some of the emails discussed whether the women allow "fetish" or "Girlfriend Experience". The Rolling Stone story is featured on page 52.

Wow, seems that there's alot of 'law troubles" for WWE superstars lately!

I haven't watched Smackdown in some time...All i saw was Moore defeat Morrison....

Geek, whats your problem with the Undertaker?

Julio Dinero (the man Finlay beat) is a fairly known indy wrestler. I don't think he's ever been on ROH or TNA though...

Dude, try reading the post all the way next time My beef is with the bitch running Smackdown, Vickie Guerrerro not the Undertaker!




See, I kinda wondered about that. I've heard the name before, and seen the guy before, but I wasn't sure if he was ROH or TNA.

I actually really like this angle with the Undertaker being stripped of the title. It lets us know that WWE aren't completely retarded, because tracheal chokes ARE illegal in pro wrestling, and if Undertaker had been applying his gogoplata as a tracheal choke (which according to the information we've been given as viewers, he has), then logically he should have the matches he won with the hold stricken from the record. Unless we're just going to start disregarding the rules of pro wrestling. In which case Edge should just shoot his opponent in the face in his next match.

I think it's a nice piece of continuity in WWE for once. And really, it does make things more interesting considering 'Taker doesn't have a great deal of interesting opponents to work with right now. You know Undertaker is eventually going to get the title back at the end of the angle anyway, but meh. Also, I do hope he stops using a gogoplata to finish matches, because it's a BADASS finish (I still can't believe a WWE wrestler is using it, haha,) but I really don't think it suits him. His triangle is fine, he should just use that in my opinion.


Also, never heard of Julio Dinero.

Well Shibata, let me say that I disagree 100% with what you said. It is your opinion, and I respect it, but it's 100% total BS, imho! Yes chokes are "illegal" in wrestling, but in case you didn't notice, this is the WWE, so pretty much anything goes.

Julio Dinero was in TNA. He was a follower of Raven along with CM Punk. Ahh, I miss the good old days of TNA, when they had Wednesday PPVs.

WWE rarely ever follows the rules of a match.

If in WWE anything goes, what do you call the situation in the old ECW? And if people still get disqualified constantly for not stopping striking their opponents, I don't see why chokes should be allowed.
I think it's a good angle, BUT I think it's WAY too early.

I side in the good angle, bad timing.

Now, the same thing with MVP vs Hardy.

Both things should be done, but could've waited just a PPV more.

I think the Taker angle could've waited a hell of a lot longer, I mean... his title reign ended up just being what? Two months long? That's silly.
It would've been cool to see Taker take out tons of guys, so that it would really seem like he was unstoppable and then it would make sense for Vickie to strip him of the belt.

I second that

Just asking out of curiosity, but is Katie Lee going to have some big career change pretty soon? I mean, are they going to build her up like another Lita?

And is anyone actually enjoying this stupid Regal thing?

CHEERS!

yay mickie james retained her title against beth.

and no im not enjoying william regal cutting off what im paying for...

Ok, ok, Zent you present some good arguements, and I agree with you which is a shocker! But it's still 100% BULLSHIT!

Any way, man Raw was fucking off the hook!!! It was freakin' fantastic to see it live! People, if you ain't seen Raw live, GO GO GO!!! Man it was sweet! I can't wait to go again, should the opportunity present itself! The bonus dark match of Y2J against Orton was a good match, and seeing Heat was good, and I don't even like Heat!

Man! I missed it in Montréal... Caca...

This weeks Raw was dire. But to be honest I haven't seen a good Raw for a long time.

And in all honesty I am happy with the way smackdown's being run.

What! It was a very good Raw.

Carlito, Santino and Piper on the mic! Great!

Kennedy and Hunter Hemsley losing was a good move, if they had won, it would've been poor and already done not long ago.

Many of the girls are getting screen time and the finish of their made Phoenix lose without looking weak.

Orton vs CM Punk was a shame that it didn't show, but it was a way to push CM Punk without hurting Orton.

There were a few communication problems during a few matches, but the whole thing was very very good.

I'll admit the Santino Carlito & Piper thing was funny

Kennedy and Helmsly vs the Extremely crappy wrestling roster wasn't a good match.

I don't care for the womens division.

Orton vs Punk could have been a classic. I would've preferred a double count out or something. It would have made more sense to turn the lights off on the Kennedy match to further the feud of Kennedy and Regal.

I'm LOVING Regal's antics, personally.



You should move, in most countries RAW is free.

sounds interesting. let's hope it utilizes an engine closer to no mercy then the current smackdown vs raw games.

TNA Mobile issued a text to subscribers today announcing competitors from Dragon Gate, New Japan and CMLL would take part in the World X Cup. One of the main problems in the past with the World X Cup has been booking talent and scheduling issues, so one can only hope the company has better results this year. The Dragon Gate performers were actually in attendance at one of the WrestleMania weekend iMPACT tapings since they were booked for ROH.

I can't wait to see the guys from Dragon Gate and hopefully they'll get Mistcio from CMLL to come in.

- Joey sent the following: I don't think Scott Steiner likes Ric Flair at all. Steiner was a guest on the Stranglehold.com's radio show last night and tore Flair and Triple H apart. It's really something with Steiner telling all sorts of stories about what people and performers in WCW did to mess with Ric Flair's head. It's no wonder Flair walked out of that company with confidence issues. There are stories about how no one smartened Flair up to the NWO Horsemen parody and he cried and got emotional, thinking the Four Horsemen were getting back together for a push and also a story about the late Rick Rude following Flair around for an hour with insults. It's really something to hear.

Can't wait to see the World X Cup, it should be interesting.

I'm listening to that Steiner thing now, pretty good so far.

Also, I watched the Sid Vicious shoot interview the other day. Pretty interesting and he isn't half as dumb as he looks, but he does live in a private little world. He pretty much thinks he's the greatest ever. Dumb.

Vicious was sweet. Definetly not the best ever, but he was Kick ass. From what i hear, he's still in pretty good shape. Heard he wants to step back in the ring...but after that leg injury from WCW (just type in Sid Vicious on youtube if you want to see it, i'm sure it's the first vid) i wouldn't...

He already has, he's been working independents for a while now. He wants to go back to WWE though.


Btw, dude has been lost like for 3 days now... he no-showed and nobody nows where he is nor his agent...
