[quote name='JimmieMac']Did we ever find out who does Batista's new music and what it's called?[/QUOTE]

It was announced the same night that he came out with it, "Unleashed" by Saliva.

Trade deadline is midnight tonight, some undercarders will be traded..
 
Whelp, the trades have been made.

To Raw:

Rene Dupree
Kenzo Suzuki w/ Hiroko
Mark Jindrak
Chavo Guerrero (WTF?)
Danny Basham (WTF!?!?!)

To Smackdown:

William Regal
Sylvan Grenier
Simon Dean (Again. WTF?)
Steven Richards (Yay!)
...and Candice

So...now MNM has NO team to feud against, and Hurricane and Rosey only have the Heart Throbs to fight, and Chavo has been taken out of the cruiser division so he can flounder on Raw like Tajiri. Wonderful. Also, I can't believe they didn't move Val Venis. But at least Steven Richards will be on Smackdown when he heals up!
 
great news about steven richards...good to see kenzo hasnt been canned either...but why move rene back to raw? and sylvan to smackdown???

why break up the bashams?? for sure they will suck apart from each other
 
Good to see that, while ALL of the "draft picks" were major players and thus negates the very notion of a draft, the trades are all essentially nobodies who are going to do nothing more than be Heat/Velocity fodder in the future.

Could they make it any more fucking obvious that this shit is scripted, and scripted poorly? Perhaps only if they showed the creative meetings on Raw and Smackdown.

I forsee a two-week feud between Jindrak and Tomko over Tomko's "Who's Mark Jindrak?" comment.

myke.
...can you f'n BELIEVE that Mark Jindrak's been with WWE since WCW was bought? If that doesn't say everything about what's wrong with WWE on so many levels, I don't know what does.
 
yep R.I.P Chavo no more cruiser weight title for you

I like Jindrak, actually id like 2 see him get an intercontinental shot (but lose)

Maven = fired since simon deans on smackdown

why did the move both frenchies again wtf ?

You didn't miss much, to be honest.

Kenzo's been out with a back injury, so that's why you haven't seen him.

As for Rene Dupree & Sylvan Grenier switching places, I'm guessing they're going to try to repackage La Resistance, since Dupree was a member of that before he went to Smackdown.


As for the others:

To Raw:

Mark Jindrak- seeing how he got mediocre after splitting from Angle, he probably won't do much on Raw either
Chavo Guerrero- definitely going to be regulated to Heat
Danny Basham- Good way to split up a tag team

To Smackdown:

William Regal- I'm guessing Eugene won't be hanging around him when Eugene returns(which according to the news is soon)
Simon Dean- Why not can the whole Simon Dean gimmick and have him go back to being Nova?
Steven Richards- hopefully he'll get somewhat the respect he deserves
...and Candice- Well, Smackdown is the home of women that can't wrestle, so it makes sense to send another airhead over there

Also, they fired Mark Lloyd, who hosted WWE Bottomline show and the Free for All program before PPVs. Good to see that they're finally realizing that they have too many commentators.
 
[quote name='smellhasreturned']ecw is having another "one" night stand ? jeeezus[/QUOTE]

Well I dunno about you, but it's my opinion that unless you're married, you can never have too many one night stands.
 
I fail to understand why they needed to bring Rene Dupree back to Raw :roll:

Could've... oh I dunno left him on SD and put Grenier on the show with him. No, I guess that makes too much sense. Instead lets end the feud that was starting to build between Grenier and Conway. Why not move Conway instead? I just... don't... get... it...

Jindrak is pointless. How many times has he moved back and forth now? I've got to wonder what has kept him in the company for so long. Honestly, fire Sean O'Haire, who actually had some charisma and a decent crazed look to him too, but keep Jindrak who's as generic as they come, and about as exciting as sawdust. Seriously, fire that motherfucker and bring back Rhyno.

Then we've got more nonsense as Chavo is moved off of the same show as Eddy. This of course makes worlds of sense as Eddie just turned heel and could've possibly worked an angle with Chavo :roll:

The rest I can tolerate.

I like the idea of Kenzo on Raw. Hopefully he can form a tag team with Tajiri as it'd be typical of Vince to unite two Asians, but regardless of that fact I think they'd make for an interesting tag team with Hiroko as their manager.

Moving Danny Basham is good too. One of them was a singles champion in OVW as Damaja I believe, not sure which though. He'll have to change his look a bit to get over as a single's wrestler on Raw though. As for the other Basham, I'd expect someone else to join JBL's cabinet and team with him.

Then you've got Regal, who so desparately wants to turn heel again. I'd actually be surprised if he didn't join JBL's circus.

Simon Dean was just not getting over on Raw. So, hopefully he's repackaged as Nova or something along those lines on SD. Not sure if he could still be a cruiserweight though as he's gained a considerable amount of muscle since his days as Nova, but I'm sure he could still put on some great matches with the cruiserweights, especially now that Psychosis, Super Crazy and Juvi are on SD.

Then the Richards move is kind of pointless as unfortunately Stevie has been a jobber since setting foot in the WWE. So unless he's planning on reverting to a gimmick simliar to his RTC gimmick and perhaps joining JBL instead of Regal, then I can't see him doing much outside of Velocity. Although, maybe Vince will be smart and let him join the rapidly growing cruiser division and win a match or two.
 
Can YOU spot the difference?

I just found Rise and Fall of ECW at Hastings used for $9.99. I almost had to rush home to get some new pants. Who would trade it in? Who cares! Got it and opened it up, looks like someone took a new copy, didn't watch it, and traded it back in.. watching it now!
 
Bastards.. the content list is out but I didn't read it yet..

HARDCORE HOMECOMING EVENT DVD (Estimated Shipping Date - July 22 )
Click to expand...

fuckers, don't say shipping late June then change it to late July.. now I have to wait 3 weeks
 
So i'm watching this DVD and he's talking about the deal on TNN with no promoting.. I'm not sure if this counts, but I saved this from years ago..

picture0763im.jpg


Advertisement from the paper, but none the less, they plugged the TV show in it.. so technically, they DID promote them (Heyman was bitching about not getting plugged in anything including newspapers).. unless ECW advertised themselves.. either way, there WAS advertisement.
 
Good pickup on Rise & Fall for $10. It's a great set. I was lucky that my Best Buy had them on release day for $15 with an exclusive RVD figure attached. On his site, RVD allows people to send in anything for a certain fee and he will sign it. Maybe I'll send the figure, or my inflatable RVD hands.

It's actually a good sign that they delayed the release of Hardcore Homecoming. It looks like they are adding a healthy amount of extras, and that orders were high enough that they delayed the release date.

I remember you sharing that ad with us, Scorch. Didn't you also attend that taping?
 
Yeah, I was there. Great show. I miss the organization. Where's the link to where RVD will sign anything? I've got pictures from the taping that i'd love to get autographed.
 
Damn, Scorch! Now I feel absolutely terrible about not having any money.

That's a killer collection for sale. The UK seems to have gotten a lot of DVDs that we haven't.

I don't know if I've come across an ECW DVD with a bad card. I've rented a handful of them from Netflix, and they all had awesome wrestling. At least a couple of local shops have ECW DVDs for sale every now and then...
 
Is anybody else surprised that Hurricane and Rosey didn't drop the tag straps to The Heart Throbs last week on Heat? I know, I'm way behind. I'm actually watching a tape of Vengeance right now. Cena/Christian/Jericho just ripped off TNA w/the 3-man suplex from the top rope.

If I remember correctly, Benjamin won that match while Jericho had the Walls on Christian, Benjamin ran from Christian's facing side of the ring, all the way to the other side behind Jericho, and hit that sick springboard bulldog. I could be confusing the matches, but that spot was definitely used around then.

Now that you mention it I do remember that. TNA wrestlers have been using that move for over a year, at least, though.

John Cena is this generation's Hulk Hogan. Truckloads of charisma but absolutely no in-ring ability.

I'M STUNNED!!! I can't believe HHH jobbed to Batista again, in Hell in a Cell, no less. I may despise HHH but at least he works at PPV's. This is a good start for him to start earning back some respect but we'll have to wait and see what his next move is.

Myself and a friend at work have been having "woo-offs" thanks to Angle and Flair.:lol:
 
hogans show is going to be awesome

he put GPS in his daughters car before she went on a date, and tracked their movements the whole night

That might explain the praise Hogan gave him during a interview for IGN.com. He went on to say that he would like to have a match with him. God, how many times is he going to come out of "retirement"?

Also, I've noticed that Roddy Piper has been doing some things at the WWE house shows, why not have him on TV for some spotlight? Perhaps have him come out and bash Carlito for ripping off Piper's Pit?

Oh, and small, according to a newsbit he did promoting the show, Aaron Carter tried to date his daughter. Apparently he lasted one hour in the house before Hogan kicked him out(from the sounds of it, the guy was pretty damn rude and cocky).

For those wondering, Edge (Adam Copeland) and Lita (Amy Dumas) are no longer a couple behind the scenes and are simply playing the role on camera as provided by WWE.

It should be noted that Edge is attempting to reconcile with his wife after marrying last fall. In addition, Lita and Matt Hardy have been on speaking terms on a semi-regular basis, although there is no word on if they would ever get back together again.

Wow, that didn't last long if this is true. Maybe it was the fact that it sounded like they weren't taking the relationship too serious and the fans bothered them about it where ever they went.

I wonder if that's the one episode where Hogan gets Nasty Boy Knobbs and Jimmy Hart to follow around Brooke. I remember reading that that was one of the episodes.

Also, it should be funny to see the episode where Hogan goes to court about his animals.

Why do I think that when Brooke Hogan turns 18 and moves out, that she is going to be having sex with everything in sight? Sometimes a strict upbringing does that...

There's only room enough in the Hogan household for one of those!

I very seriously doubt that TNA was the first place to use that maneuver. Nearly everything has already been done in Mexico or Japan.

That fact Hogan kicked out that little POS is awesome. Hogan's cool points just went up!
