WWE

[Chojin]

So, I stopped watching it even as a joke a while ago, roughly around the time they revealed that Vince McMahon has an illegitimate midget son.

Since then, I tuned in once to see that midget paint a hole on a wall and run into it to escape Carlito Carribean Cool (who of course ran into it after him bugs-bunny style)

And then I tuned in again to see Vince and JBL in a cage match versus that midget while the midget's irish caretaker was handcuffed to the ropes and crying.

So, really, what the fuck? Who watches RAW to see that shit? (protip: it is nowhere near as funny as I make it sound)


I also caught last night's main event which was pretty good, all things considered. I hate Cena's character to death, but am glad to see MY BOY Randy get over. Orton and Cena 3Ding some jobbers was pretty excellent. Still just as tired of Triple H winning every altercation as I was five years ago.

SECOND QUESTION: Who do y'all think is gonna win main event at wrestlemania? Cena, Orton, or Triple H?

I'm hoping for Orton of course, but when was the last time a heel won in the main event at WM, you know :<

[Fathom Zero]

THE UNDERTAKER.

He will never lose.

[Pentegarn]

The "telent" (and I use the term loosely) is not what it once was when the likes of The Rock, Kurt Angle, and Mick Foley were there. It was a golden age that was ruined when Hollywood snatched up the most entertaining talent to make sub par movies. It was OK when Hogan and Ventura did it, because they still showed up to wrestle/announce.

Other than Carlito and Jericho, I don't think there is anyone left that has tht "it" that The Rock had, and even Carlito and Jericho only have a little of "it".

I am not sure Orten won't win at Wrestlemania though. It might be that they are setting up for Jericho to beat Orton (provided he is still around, I don't even know, but last I had heard they had a bit of a feud going).

I'll still watch Wrestlemania even though the luster has long diminished for me, mostly because a group of us get together every year and watch it. EDIT: And of course, the circus that is Floyd Mayweather vs. The Big Show, I almost forgot about that

A little bit of caution tape on that picture and it's perfect.

[ElPila666]

Is Jake "The Snake" Roberts still doing crack?

[El Blanco]

I'll watch it every once in a while just to see if there is anyone as entertaining as the Rock.

I've always liked Jericho. I think he's got tons of showmanship. He needs to be a headliner.

I actually want to watch this Wrestlemania. the card looks pretty good. Except for one thing:


For the love of God, someone make Ric Flair retire. I get sick watching him try to amble across the ring, stiff as a board and unable to sell any of the hits. All he does is fall down, bleed, and somehow win.

[MLE]

"somehow" is right.

[Pentegarn]

He's not being fair to Flair!

(I will be shocked if anyone gets that refrence :P )

[Fathom Zero]

I think the Nature Boy will "die" sometime. Like Umaga breaks his neck or something.

[Pentegarn]

I don't think the 'a person dies' storyline will ever be used again after the "Vince dies in limo explosion" fiasco.

[Fathom Zero]

I thought it was funny.

[Pentegarn]

So the question is, will we light this thread up with activity next Sunday?

[GADZOOKS]

There is really a character named Caribbean Carlito Cool? yeesh

"I got your. present"
"YOU'RE LEAVIN!"
"No I'm not leaving. and you got butterflies in your stomach. because you are gonna get married"
"I"M NERVOUS!!!"

I don't watch wrestling anymore so i'll contribute to this fine thread by posting some classic clips:

To be fair, I think he was using the word "coon" as a short for racoon, not as a racial slur.

[Pentegarn]

So who all is actually going to watch Wrestlemania? I will likely do it. My friends and I used to watch every PPV back in the day. Then it was just the major ones like Royal Rumble, King of the Ring, Survivor Series, and Wrestlemania. Now it is just Wrestlemania. We will still dust off the N64 though and play No Mercy all day Sunday leading up to the event though.

[Chojin]

We usually watch the Royal Rumble and Wrestlemania, though we skipped out on the rumble this year. Good thing, too, since Cena entered at #30 and won it.

I'm still debating whether I'd rather watch wrestlemania or stay with my GURPS game for the last half of the session. I'm leaning toward wrestlemania.

[Sam]

I haven't watched wrestling in months but I know I want Ric Flair to retire and Randy Orton to retain. Also I don't want Edge to be the champ because I just hate him but new Undertaker isn't much better. :(

well that depends, are you running GURPS: Wrestlemania

[Chojin]

Wrestlemania is on RIGHT NOW

and I am NOT watching it

because if I wait a few hours I can watch it for free on the internet's dime :picklehat

[Pentegarn]

I watched it. I will just give opinions as I don't want to spoiler it up for anyone.

JBL vs. Finley had the funniest moment of the night I thought.

Money in the bank match was very boring to me.

Kain vs. Chavo.... well, you'll see if you haven't yet. And if you have, you know what I am thinking I bet.

Big Show vs. Floyd Maywether. This was so poorly done and was dumb all around. A total disappointment. Hopefully though, Jim Rome saw it and says something that makes me laugh about it.

Ric Flair vs. Shawn Michaels. I did not know this match was on the card, and it was by far the best match of the night. I was especially impressed with the choreography of both the wrestling moves and the emotion they conveyed through the match.

HHH vs. John Cena vs. Randy Orton. Loser? The fans.

Undertaker vs. Edge. I hate Edge with a passion because of what went on between him and Matt Hardy behind the scenes, but I have to give credit where it is due. He is good at selling wrestling moves.

[Sam]

Edge would still suck even if he didn't do Matt Hardy's girlfriend.

[Dommin]

JBL Vs Finlay - Waste of my time.

MITB - good, solid spotfest.

Kane Vs Chavo - Made me mark out.

Flair Vs Michaels - Match of the night. Enough said.

Triple Threat - Didn't care enough to watch.

Mayweather Vs Big Show - Done a lot better than I thought it would be.

Undertaker Vs Edge - The ending made me happy.

[GADZOOKS]

There needs to be more jokes about Jim Ross in this thread.

[WhiteRat]

DEAR GOD HE HAS A FAMILY!!!!!

How's that for starters?

[Pentegarn]

JBL Vs Finlay - Waste of my time.

I would agree except that seeing Hornswoggle get randomly pelted with a garbage can for no reasn whatsoever other than he was a target of opportunity made me laugh for about 15 minutes.

[Sam]

MUH GAWD

[Dommin]

I would agree except that seeing Hornswoggle get randomly pelted with a garbage can for no reasn whatsoever other than he was a target of opportunity made me laugh for about 15 minutes.

Ahahaha. Yeah, that was pretty good. And he oversold it like no one's business. He almost did a backflip.

[Chojin]

It's been long enough that I'm not going to SPOILER TAG this.

JBL Vs Finlay - I don't remember this match :<

MITB - great match, shitty result. what the fuck is punk going to do with a title match? there are only like 5 guys on the ecw roster to begin with, and I can't imagine he wasn't already the #1 contender.

Kane Vs Chavo - poor, poor chavo ;<

Flair Vs Michaels - the best flair match I've ever seen, I didn't know he could actually wrestle!

Triple Threat - I couldn't believe my boy retained, although the match itself was kinda gay.

Mayweather Vs Big Show - Why is it that every time a celebrity fights a wrestler on their own turf, the wrestler loses? What does that say about wrestlers?

Undertaker Vs Edge - It actually looked like Edge was going to take it at one point :<

[Pentegarn]

I have finally gotten to the point where my head is not exploding over the debacle from Raw Monday night.

On the plus side, it reenforced my decision to write in my vote this election and not vote for any of those three clowns.

I was gonna put up links, but even youtube-ing it would probably cause a relapse of your-head-asplode-itis.

[Chojin]

I liked how Obama threatened Randy Orton's title reign. I think Randy should feud with him.

[Chojin]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rrBrf5xpoP8&feature=related

So Orton has new music, and it doesn't fit him at all.

Unless his new angle is being Perry Saturn.

[WhiteRat]

I love the shitty quality youtube video. Seriously though, the music is actually pretty good, even though I don't give a shit about Orton.

[Pentegarn]

I preferred his old entrance music. That said, I STILL can't stand Randy Orton. If fans just gave him the X-Pac treatment he would go away forever, but WWE mistakes the hate driven booing for "heel charisma" so he sticks around.

Robocop has a gun that he keeps inside his thigh, so he wins by default.

Hopefully he continues the gimmick. I remember one time Chief Strongbow was giving Tatanka his ceremonial headdress and IRS came out demanding a "gift tax" and proceeded to stomp the shit out of the headdress. Shit is hilarious.

[pac-man]

They could make his gimmick more topical. Maybe "Mort Gage" or "Will Foreclose"

[WhiteRat]

I like it. He would just go around ridiculing people for their house foreclosure and blame them for the struggling economy. Now is the perfect time for the WWE to go with something like that.

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

They need to bring back Duke "The Dumpster" Droese to combat global warming then. Possibly with Rhino coming back as Al-Agorey. The 2nd part needs work.

Why in the hell would they trot out a fat-old dinosaur like Honky Tonk, when there's a perfectly fit old dinosaur named The Ultimate Warrior out there?

[Pentegarn]

Why in the hell would they trot out a fat-old dinosaur like Honky Tonk, when there's a perfectly fit old dinosaur named The Ultimate Warrior out there?

Because apparently the current Intercontinental Champion, (whoever he is) has a "Honky Meter" that counts how long he has been the Intercontinental Champion and his current gimmick is that he says he plans to break Honky Tonk Man's sixty something week streak holding the title.

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

I might watch it if there's a Honky Meter. That sounds hilarious.

[Angryhydralisk]

Sounds miles better than what was on ECW last night. a Mediocre 3-on-3 bout. Jack Swagger vs. Tommy Dreamer in a fairly decent match to get the new guy over (And no doubt never use him again in like, a month). And a dirt sheet making fun of DX.

I joked about it at first but now I think I was right. ECW is the reject's division and program for the WWE.

[Muscle_Bomber_Uno]

I don't remember how long ago I stopped watching wrestling... I guess I lost most interest after the McMahon limo explosion. Man, was that horrible.

[WhiteRat]

The last wrestling event/show I remember watching with interest was the Summerslam with Jesse Ventura as the special guest referee. It was either 99 or 2000. I've tried several times to watch an episode of RAW since then but the shit is just garbage.

[pac-man]

Agreed. I was going to buy tickets for WrestleMania 25, but then I realized I could spend the 75 bux on a video game, some beer, and a pack of smokes.

The worst part about pro wrestling being what it is today is that there is likely no going back to what it used to be. The cat is out of the bag as far as kayfabe goes, titles reigns last a couple weeks, and the shows and events are more like variety shows than (pseudo) sporting events. I doubt any promotion would even be willing to give the style of the 70's, 80's, and early 90's a try.

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

I think since WWE destroyed the competition it's become lackluster. Kayfabe in general got out of hand. I've been looking for a clip where the Rock was in a ambulance after being beaten by the NWO shortly after the merger. Then Hollywood Hogan rammed into the ambulance with Semi-Truck. Then Hogan got away with it because the Rock "Technically hit him first".

It's over the topness like that that made me stop watching it. Thankfully I have most of WWE/WCW from 97-2000 on VHS that I'm going through watching with my roommate now. It'll never be the same.

Watched tropic thunder last night. There's a part where this guy has two hands full of heroin and then punches two people in the face.....so they got heroin punched. My rommate and I started to think of gimmicks we could sell to WWE.

Ahab from Rehab. Used to work at a rehab clinic but was fired for intentionally getting the patients drugged. He could have a harpoon filled with heroin.

Or the cocaine uppercut, put coke on your fingers so when you uppercut someone it goes straight up their nose.

Yeah, whenever I get nostalgic (high) I find myself digging up old WWF clips. Been playing Smackdown vs. Raw 2009 and it pisses me off that I only really know or like 5 or 6 of the wrestlers.

Tried this the other night. Is there any way to do 2 player co-op story/franchise mode as created chars? Or just play the Mysterio / Batista version?

[pac-man]

Well, you can go after either of the tag championships in career mode with a created character, but you only have a small number of non-created partners to choose from. The only designed tag-team campaign is the Batista/Rey Road to WrestleMania.

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

I'm going to have to get a copy of Smackdown 2: Know your role. I think that's the last one where you could do that with created characters.

I think I saw a sign that said Sam.

I saw that sign too! :eek

[pac-man]

Awesome! A winner is me!

[Tadao]

Should have been a sign saying "Thanks for all that fucking gold Tadao!"

He should've put that bitch in the Walls of Jericho.

[Sam]

Just got tickets to see Night of Champions last night. :eek

June 28th.

[pac-man]

TNA sucks. I've been trying to watch it the last couple weeks, but damn. Kurt Angle looks like he has cancer, there's a black Macho Man Randy Savage, and the hexagon ring just seems like a gimmick.

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

Don't forget about ManKane too. I used to watch it when it came out when they primarily fought for the X-Division championship. The hexagon ring was crazy.

[pac-man]

Bought the Saturday Night's Main Event DVD earlier today. Great nostalgia. They should just re-air this stuff on Monday and Friday nights, rather than recycling feuds between guys like Cena, Edge, HHH, and Orton ad nauseum.

[pac-man]

Looking at old wrestling stuff on youtube, and I found what has to be one of the great "shoot" interviews. It's just Mick Foley, Jesse "The Body" Ventura, and an interviewer eating and talking about how the business has changed. I totally recommend this to anybody who digs wrestling and has watched it evolve (or devolve IMO). Check it out:

[McClain]

Why is a WWE thread in the sports forum?

[Angryhydralisk]

Because it's not just sports, it's sports ENTERTAINMENT.

Don't look at me, Vince said that.

[WhiteRat]

Anyone else notice that Andrew "Test" Martin went up to the wrestling ring in the sky?

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

Yeah, I didn't hear what happened though.

[Angryhydralisk]

Shame. He was only 33. Sounds like a snappy newsflash for CNN.

Taking up professional wrestling will cut your lifespan down to roughly 40 years...unless you have no wrestling ability.

[Dixie]

I just watched one of my friends tag team with Superfly Snuka down in Clayton.
He's held up pretty good!
Short match, but it was really fun!

[Angryhydralisk]

Jimmy Snuka is amazing.

Also, I've been reading The death of WCW, and finding some hilarious botcheries, like this one...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXkZCtZ-6IU

I'm trying to find one from 1999 where a bunch of stage blood was supposed to drop on Kevin Nash but misses and hits the crowd. It cuts to vince russo looking shocked. Konnan and Juventud Gurrera are standing behind him in stitches.

Oh, and Kevin Nash screwing up walking and tearing his quad literally on his returning day from an injury.

[Tadao]

WCW used to get on my nerves.

[Sam]

Not as good as when Booker T called Hulk Hogan a n*gger.

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

Raw is in Buffalo tonight, debating whether or not to go.

[Angryhydralisk]

I've debated on going to Raw on the 15th until I seen Big Business will be there on the same night.

[Dixie]

King Kong Bundy is supposed to be coming to NC sometime soon
:D

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

Love me some King Kong Bundy. I can't get this picture to post but here is one of the two greatest Bundy's of all time:

http://mickeynews.homestead.com/files/kingkongbundyal0001.jpg

[Angryhydralisk]

Picture is brilliant.

I still caught RAW in Lousiville, thanks laregely to my friend being an idiot and getting the date wrong. I thought they still did the shows in advance (They do for WWE Superstars, which a rejects that aren't reject enough for ECW) ut RAW's live. Just goes to show you how long it's been since I seriously watched wrestling!

Apparently, judging by Wikipedia and the confrontation Flair had with Randy orton on RAW, he's possibly un-retiring AGAIN.

not as bad as Terry Funk, who had retired and un-retired so many times the experts and marks actually lost count.

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

lol, me and my roommate were playing Resident Evil 5 and chainsaw guy popped out. He's like "Oh! Chainsaw Charlie is back out of retirement." So we killed him retired him and then bust out laughing when he came back to life for another round. "His pension ran out again."

[Womti]

FkLOTUleo40

until Andre the Giant comes back, you can all go fu*k yourselves

[Pentegarn]

Jesse Ventura was great until he went ape shit and became one of those nutbag 'truthers'

[Sam]

I don't even know what is going on right now, but I got tickets to see The Great American Bash on the 28th. :(

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

It doesn't matter. I usually go to it when it comes because its an excuse to drink copious amounts of booze and yell at people.

Went to the great american bash a few years ago and met Benoit which was amazing(still have his autograph! :)) At the actual PPV they had a whole Benoit tribute to him and then he lost to Bradshaw for some reason. It was a terrible event though :(

[Angryhydralisk]

That sounds fuckin' ridiculous. And not in the good way where some wrestlers are all like "Well, the best matche sI ever had were the ones I LOST.

Anyways, 3-for-All is on tonight. Sounds predictable and absurd.

Orton vs. Triple H vs. Cena vs. Big Show for the WWE title

Jeff Hardy vs. Edge vs. CM Punk for the Heavyweight title

and Tommy Dreamer (Who hasn't retired) vs. some schmuck for the ECW title.

[Sam]

YOU MEAN SOME SCHMUCK WHO NEEDS TO RETIRE A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO VS CHRISTIAN :rolleyes

[Angryhydralisk]

And now it's the schmuck who needs to retire vs. the schmuck who's not as cool as edge vs. the fat schmuck who's been in WWE way too long vs. the irish schmuck vs. the schmuck that speaks with a lisp.

Anyways, Trump Raw was certainly one of the more entertaining RAWs I seen in a while. Me and a friend have been joking about Randy Orton's "UH KICKED HIM IN DUH SKULL!" speech a lot and now having heard it I can't stop laughing.

I look forward to seeing Cena vs. Miz.

[Sam]

Leaving for "The Bash" :rolleyes right now. Is anyone going to watch it? I'm not taking a sign but I will be wearing a Boba Fett shirt if you wanna play "Find Sam in a Crowd of Thousands of Peoples". :(

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

I might watch it at a wing bar but then I have to get booze too and I'm trying not to drink today.

[stevetamis]

Hi everyone,
I love WWE very much and i am watching since past 14 yrs.
My favorite wrestlers are Brett hit-man Heart and The Rock.
Last i saw the event called "The Bash". After that i haven't
seen yet, so can u give some news on it.
Thanks.........

[Angryhydralisk]

Umm....Triple H & Randy Orton hate each other. And ZZ Top were guests last week. The End.

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

This is coming 2nd hand from my roommate but I guess last night there was a triple threat match. HHH and Cena had a crippler crossface and boston crab applied to Orton at the SAME TIME. Orton TAPPED OUT but the ref didn't know how to declare who the winner was. So the match CONTINUED and then Orton pinned someone else later and WON the match...WTF?


Now obviously I could see some confusion as to who the winner would be between HHH and Cena but it definitely wouldn't be Orton....later on.

[Pentegarn]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tUgyzag6fUM&eurl=http%3A%2F%2Fsports.yahoo.com%2Fnba%2Fblog%2F ball_dont_lie%2Fpost%2FShaquille-O-Neal-hosts-Monday-Night-Raw-gets-%3Furn%3Dnba%2C179212&feature=player_embedded

lookie at this

[Tadao]

I can't wait for him to die.

[Pentegarn]

:lol That's pretty harsh :lol

[Tadao]

Yeah, I know. But the whole ching chong chang thing really made me realize what he means to me.

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

Jeremy Piven is hosting next week :(

[Pentegarn]

Yeah, I know. But the whole ching chong chang thing really made me realize what he means to me.

I missed that.

But you have to realize, only one out of every 10 things he tries in the name of what he sees as humor are actually funny, the other nine are just dumb and should be dismissed. Honestly, you really want to take seriously the guy who gave the green light to Shaq Fu and Kazam? :lol

[Tadao]

Yeah, I know what you mean, but this time he acted like he was untouchable because he is Shaq. He didn't feel even the slightest in the wrong. And it got me to thinking about how bad a role model he really is for the kiddies.

[Sam]

HE'S STEEL HE IS INCASED IN ARMOR AND HE IS JUST LIKE SUPERMAN OKAY

[Pentegarn]

Yeah, I know what you mean, but this time he acted like he was untouchable because he is Shaq. He didn't feel even the slightest in the wrong. And it got me to thinking about how bad a role model he really is for the kiddies.

I don't think athletes, or any celebrity for that matter, are good role models.

Heck look at just the last year, you have DUI murderers, bigots, animal killers, bad sports, and cheaters up to your armpits sadly.

[Angryhydralisk]

Well, that's exactly what I wanted to be when I grow up! A FELON!

Anyways, I think the guest host thing worked when they had wrestlers guest hosting. Unless those were the only two they could get to do the damn thing and not look like idiots.

And by idiots, I mean still better than ZZ Top & Shaq.

Speaking of Shaq, he's having a show in the vein of that Bobby Flay show where he takes on other athletes in their sports....and presumably loses.

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

Randy Orton did his move thing to Freddie Prinze jr last night. I was hoping for something witty along the lines of Orton saying "Junior, I'm going to cripple you....like your career!" but Randy is an idiot so oh well.

Also, the short irish fellow fought Chavo. Long story short, ended up backstage, Chavo walked through a door, was hit in the head with a paint can and it turned out Macualey Culkin was behind it.

John Hughes is most certainly rofling in his grave.

[Angryhydralisk]

Speaking of the guest host gimmick, some site confirmed some of the future guest hosts.

Confirmed:
Bob Barker
the Rev. Al Sharpton
“Access Hollywood” co-host Nancy O’Dell
boxer Floyd Mayweather
basketball player LeBron James.

Not so confirmed, but WWE wants them for god knows what reasons. It makes the actual confirmeds seem stellar in comparison:
Fall Out Boy’s Pete Wentz
Ashlee Simpson
the Osbournes
Danny DeVito (He should come out to Fantomas, since he did commentary for the Melvins/Fantomas Big Band DVD.)
Regis Philbin and Kelly Ripa
Jimmy Fallon
Rachael Ray
MC Hammer
Woody Harrelson
Serena Williams
Ashton Kutcher

[Pentegarn]

Danny DeVito and Regis and Kelly would be funny I bet

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

I would def watch it if Danny hosted it. Watched Summer Slam last night and the only entertaining match was the last one.

[Guitar Woman]

So I'm watching wrasslin' again after having cable for about 10 years.

It was nice of SmackDown to draft all the good ECW wrestlers so I wouldn't have to watch the SciFi channel. No contest, my man is

THE FRIDAY NIGHT DELIGHT

http://img225.imageshack.us/img225/9337/morrisona.jpg

Don't really watch Raw as much, but I might as well mark for Miz, former member of the GREATEST TAG TEAM OF THE 21ST CENTURY :hairtoss

Also glad to see DA UNDATAKA is still the biggest motherfucking showoff ever.

[MLE]

It figures you'd like him.

[Guitar Woman]

NOBODY'S EVER KICKED OUTTA STARSHIP PAIN BEFORE

[Pentegarn]

You know that dude roids, just look at him

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

I started watching it again occasionally and for a few weeks though the Miz and that bobby guy were the same people.

[Chojin]

I have tickets to see their baltimore show in november. Me and schimid will be 4 rows back from the announce table.

Ideas?

[Guitar Woman]

DfL5mk2F9wM

Hell yeah, motherfuckers.

The rest of Smackdown was pretty good tonight, except for Matt Hardy vs Eric Escobar: EXTREME JIGGLEPAUNCH SHOWDOWN

[Sam]

Screw that noise, this was the best thing to happen in wrestling so far this month

[Pentegarn]

Well that was rather disgusting and disgraceful

so why is wwf in the sports section? it should most certainly be in the television area with the other soap operas

Sports entertainment.

[Guitar Woman]

Haha, oh my god, Team Smackdown is going to get fucking buried after the lineup change.

I can't understand any of these swaps. Finlay? Matt Hardy? R-Truth? The fucking Hart Dynasty? I didn't really like any of the original team other than McIntyre but they were better than those retards.

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

FINLAY!!!!!!!!

[Guitar Woman]

Hulk Hogan's coming to TNA.

SECOND BANANA'S GONNA RUN WILD ON YOU, BROTHER

[Pentegarn]

He needs money now that his ex is taking him to the cleaners :D

[Chojin]

I like how Cena gets 2 title attempts, both times with the stipulation that Orton can't rematch. Why? Cena got like 10 tries before he finally won the "I Quit" match, and that was pretty much a foregone conclusion since the WWE decided that superfaces can never lose by submission. The ironman match was pretty good, but why in the graces of fuck would you tap out with 3 seconds left on the clock? I'd be fine with my boy losing if it didn't always happen in the lamest way every single time.

Smackdown could have really used Cena, too, since they're already pandering to the K-12 crowd over there.

So now Cena has a belt that he doesn't need, and Orton is feuding with.. Kofi? What did he do to deserve that? Did Orton really punt Shane in the head?

[Sam]

Kofi was such a hardass wrecking Orton's super cool nascar :rolleyes

[Guitar Woman]

REALLY?

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

Orton is a no trick pony.

[Guitar Woman]

I was anxious to see him wrestle last night, because I've never actually sat down to watch a Randy Orton match, but then Legacy ran out and I was like "oh fuck you, buddy, can't you do anything for yourself"

And then Ozzy and Sharon brought out team Kool-Aid to help Kofi, and neither Kofi or Orton got any time in the ring after that. Aren't they the fucking ones feuding, here?

Best match of the night was Evan Bourne vs The Miz, but it's horseshit that Miz won at the last second after getting his ass kicked spectacularly the entire time. Again.

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

I'm pretty sure Miz is just 2P of Jack Swagger. I did see the Kool-Aid allstars come out and rumble.

[Chojin]

Best match of the night was Evan Bourne vs The Miz, but it's horseshit that Miz won at the last second after getting his ass kicked spectacularly the entire time. Again.

Yeah, the Miz wrestles like a heel Cena.

Download one of Orton's matches from the last few pay-per-views, they were all pretty good.

[Sam]

Unless he is wrestling John Cena, then he just gets steamrolllllllllleeeeeeddd.

[Chojin]

Unless he is wrestling John Cena, then he just gets steamrolllllllllleeeeeeddd.

Not really, Cena's style is to get his ass beat until he builds up his ultra meter and then win in two moves.

[Sam]

When I saw Cena vs Miz at "The Bash" :rolleyes it was Cena no selling the two offensive moves Miz managed to crap out and then Cena going through his entire move list in under 2 minutes. Then the next night at RAW it was basically the same thing but longer. :(

[Chojin]

SHOULDER BLOCK
SHOULDER BLOCK
DODGE A PUNCH
BACK DROP
5-KNUCKLE SHUFFLE
F-U

that should be his finisher in the game ;< it requires too much cooperation on the other guy's part to pull off the entire combo

sometimes orton just lays down for the second shoulder block and cena goes flying out of the ring, it's hilarious

[Sam]

That is basically what he did to Miz except he ended it with the STFU after the FU or as it is now known "The Attitude Adjustment"

[Guitar Woman]

TEAM MORRISON: John Morrison, Matt Hardy, Evan Bourne, Shelton Benjamin and Finlay vs. TEAM MIZ: The Miz, Drew McIntyre, Sheamus, Dolph Ziggler and Jack Swagger

Team Midcard vs Team Douchebag hair

I laughed at Miz and Swagger on the same team, then marked out for JoMo and Evan Bourne, which I thought would only happen in fantasy land 2000 years into the future

Also lol, only one member of Team Kofi is white. :(

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

I'm more worried about the northern ireland against southern ireland. I feel like no one hates the Irish more than the Irish :(

[Sam]

OH COOL NEXT WEEK MONDAY NIGHT RAW IS BEING HOSTED BY NICKLEBACK. I GUESS I'M NEVER WATCHING IT AGAIN. EVER.

EEEEEEVVVVVVVVEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRR. >:

THE FUCKING LINE HAS BEEN FUCKING CROSSSSED.

[Chojin]

next raw is being hosted by piper.

and they're changing their theme to a nickleback song

i think you are confused

also i cannot fucking believe they let orton go clean over mark henry and then slap kofi, that was amazing

[Sam]

WHATEVER IT IS STILL TERRIBLE >:

[Guitar Woman]

This is a horrible episode, not even Evan Bourne's match was any fucking good. I think the highlight was team racial slur going BALLIN' in unison.

Raw is bad enough to make me ragequit wrestling forever

[Chojin]

This is a horrible episode, not even Evan Bourne's match was any fucking good. I think the highlight was team racial slur going BALLIN' in unison.

i dunno, i kinda liked orton accusing all the black people on the show of being criminals

[Sam]

RANDY ORTON ISN'T RACIST, THE VOICES IN HIS HEAD ARE

[Pentegarn]

As George Carlin said: "Why don't the voices in your head ever tell you, 'go take a shit on the salad bar at Wendy's!' "

[Guitar Woman]

:lol Miz on Dinner Impossible

I don't know what was funnier, the chef getting raged at him for riding a shopping cart around or talking shit to the potato with a smiley face on it :(

[Sam]

As George Carlin said: "Why don't the voices in your head ever tell you, 'go take a shit on the salad bar at Wendy's!' "

They would do that, but WWE is family centered now. :rolleyes

Which means no more abortions or necrophilia.

[Pentegarn]

They have had some quite tasteless moments involving the dead haven't they?

Remember the Big Boss Man dragging Big Show's dead dad in a coffin around?

[Sam]

Hahaha yes, and Big Show jumped on it and rode it. :lol

"Ya hear that Paul Wight, you're a nasty bastard and your momma said so!"

[Guitar Woman]

I was sort of getting sick of JoMo vs Ziggler every week, but that was actually a great match

The lineup for survivor series is so good that I might even buy it.

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

They have had some quite tasteless moments involving the dead haven't they?

Remember the Big Boss Man dragging Big Show's dead dad in a coffin around?

Hahaha yes, and Big Show jumped on it and rode it. :lol

I tried looking back through the WWE thread but I can't find it today(at work where ytube is blocked.) but I posted the video to that.

I loved how Boss man also found a Blues Brothers squad car from the roaring twenties.

THE CHAIRMAN OF WCW

[Chojin]

why is kofi kingston the world's most effective orton killer

also i'll be at RAWWW live tonight :picklehat

[Sam]

Is it because he's nego?

Mark Henry is an Orton killer too.

COINCIDENCE? I THINK NOT

[Chojin]

No way, Orton's murdered Henry in short order twice now.

I've noticed that the WWE is letting a lot of heels go over clean lately, especially at Survivor Series and this last RAW. That's awesome, but they've also marked a Kofi and Cena as men who can do no wrong and are basically invincible.

I'm not particularly looking forward to "the little people's court" that we'll be subjected to tonight. WHY does mini-me have to host the one RAW in Baltimore?

[Sam]

I MIGHT ACTUALLY WATCH IT TONIGHT, JUST TO SEE CHOJIN'S DISMAY AT ALL THE TINY PERSON ANTICS.

I hope Mini-Me drives out to the ring because it will take the little guy 10 minutes to hobble out there by himself. :\

[Chojin]

We're 4 rows behind the announcer's table. Maybe I'll be on TV.

Raging at midgets.

[Sam]

Make a sign that says "I Came To See the Midgets"
