About Me

When some wild-eyed, eight-foot-tall maniac grabs your neck, taps the back of your favorite head up against the barroom wall, and he looks you crooked in the eye and he asks you if ya paid your dues, you just stare that big sucker right back in the eye, and you remember what ol' Jack Burton always says at a time like that: "Have ya paid your dues, Jack?" "Yes sir, the check is in the mail."

Honestly, Taker/Umaga at Mania doesn't sound like much of a money match to me(then again neither did his match with Henry). I'm with the majority on this believe it or not. I want Taker on raw if for nothing else but fresh opponents. He's the only big name that has yet to be traded in a draft and it's just becoming incredibly stale.


Jack Burton is incredibly late on this, but just had to comment anyway...and yeah, it's been awhile, I know...

I've always wanted Undertaker on RAW. I always felt the bigger names were on RAW, the more viable superstars and such. I always half-wondered whether his draft from SmackDown would be a blow to that show, and I guess in some ways it would be. However, Undertaker is a big fish in a small pond, and you can't have him fighting the same damn people over and over. He cast Edge into Hell after that Hell in a Cell match, so that's no good to have that feud up and running again. You can't have him fight Khali...he's more or less conquered him. You might have him beat on Jeff Hardy, but I don't see that being a lasting feud. Kane might prove a viable opponent for him, but you'd have to REALLY freshen up that pairing. You would need to make Kane really dangerous to make it good, give him that same "Oh shit!" factor that he had when he first appeared back in 1997. Putting him back in his mask and making him seem practically invincible would do it, I think.

But yeah, Undertaker really needs to be on RAW. The man is still a good wrestler, and I think he's been a bit under-utilized on SmackDown. Put him up against main-eventers he hasn't feuded with yet, or guys he hasn't fought in a long time. Just GET HIM ON RAW!!!

And THAT'S what Jack Burton has to say at this time.

Muck, don't ever mention Taker going after Hardy, anything that has Jeff in it sucks. I can't stand him anymore. Pill-popping punk wannabe.

Unless your complete list of favorite pro wrestlers starts and ends with CM Punk, I'm pretty sure that almost all your favorite wrestlers are popping pills too.

Ugh...MVP is losing again, im already tired of this 'losing streak' storyline. What a waste of talent. They should put him in the main event spot soon and make him feud with the likes of hhh, jeff hardy or even kozlov.

Spoilers: (Highlight to reveal)
Trish Stratus is back!?! Wow!
It makes me hope Lita will return in the future as well. But with the success she's having with the Luchagores I doubt it... Very sweet raw. Mileena wrestled so, I got what I wanted.

It would be pretty good if she came back till wrestlemania and had a match with Pheonix instead of another crappy playboy match.

Samoa Joe is now a dad.

Now that he has had the baby, we can expect to see him look like an actual wrestler from now on.

I bet Batista's injury is a work and he'll return and win the Rumble just like Cena did to further escalate their rivalry and one upmanship.

It wouldn't make me happy as much as I like Batista, a 6 month hiatus is what he needs in order to stop being stale like he is. He's more annoying than Goldberg in the sense that he's always in the main event doing the same thing over and over again.

And now it looks like Lesnar's first title defense is going to be against Frank Mir. Pretty interesting to say the least. The one man who has beaten Lesnar in the Octagon gets the shot at the champ.

I'd like to go see it. Every review i've read is stellar so far.

I feel like a major ass, as I don't usually let angles get that far away from me, but could somebody tell me what the hell is going on with JBL and HBK right now. Employer/Employee....WTF? What brought this on?

Well apparently Shawn is "broke" don't know if its an angle or if he's really broke. But my guess is just story he spoke of pissing his money away during the 90's and was irresponsible with his money. And invested some of it in the stock market than when the market crashed he lost all his money . Thus JBL made Shawn an offer to work for him. And In doing so he would bail him out of his debt and give him money. I don't like this angle but its different. But thats whats going on with that.

Yeah i've been paying attention to this story as I see a WrestleMania type match between JBL and HBK . Thats just my theory though. Hope you got caught up on that lolsmile

O.K. I appreciate that dude. It's interesting I suppose....any fan that pays attention would remember back when shawn first made his comeback he said he was more or less doing it for his son and didn't need the money, but...most wrestling fans have short attention spans. Thanks for the info dude.....Somebody with power give this man dragon points....I DEMAND IT!smile

Shawn Michaels headlined a bunch of PPVs during 2008, wrestles all the time, sells shitloads of merchandise, and we're supposed to believe he's broke?

They could have given a midcarder or jobber this storyline, it makes no fucking sense for a main eventer (because of the points you brought up) to be "broke". Hell if a main eventer like HBK is "broke" then how the hell is the rest of the roster who doesn't sell merchandise, win matches, or is named Gene Snitsky getting by?

Well Snitsky has been released.

But yeah it's amazing how HBK is broke but NOBODY else in the entire WWE is having troubles.

How the hell is JBL actually making so much fucking money that he can have HBK work for him?

Ahh, that's why no more Snitsky I see, I see...

Great story that HBK's been pulled into since the Ric Flair thing. Loving how he's pretending to be brok when the guy is making millions per day.

Yeah... I don't see how this makes any sense if the guy still sells shit like crazy, not to mention be in main events and stuff like that. They should have had something else to be the issue on why HBK joined up with JBL.
