Johnny B Badd looks great for his age. Man, back when the undercard guys from WCW came to WWE, many came to the HWA to train. Lash Leroux came in looking like he spent every moment between leaving WCW and coming to HWA at an all-you-can-eat buffet. The dude was awful. I think *I* was in better shape than him. So, since Mero/Badd was gone from wrestling for so long, I must say he kept himself very well.

Badd's still an awful wrestler, but if he brings back his confetti gun, all will be forgiven.
 
[quote name='guyver2077']yea he did bring back the gun[/quote]

:shock:

I was just kidding about that. How about the glittery lip-shaped stickers ('the kiss that don't miss' I believe)?

Oh man. How cool.

Not that I'll order Victory Road.

myke.
 
According to SLAM! Wrestling, Billy Gunn has signed on with TNA. This comes on the heels of Gunn’s termination from WWE, as announced on Monday by WWE.com.

Gunn was in hot water with WWE for quite some time, but it seems as what ever personal issues WWE saw with him, TNA either sees past them or will help out with them.

As of now, Gunn is not expected to debut right way. It would be interesting to see what name he uses in TNA, as the name “Billy Gunn” is owned by WWE.

Well TNA will find out how bad he is and fire him soon.
 
yea forgot to post it....i hope he teams with bg james again...damn tna is awesome...they are bringing back old tag teams lol......imagine outsiders vs new age outlaws..
 
That couldn't happen. The WWE owns the rights to the names Road Dogg, Billy Gunn, and New Age Outlaws. So they would have to be called something else.
 
Prepare to witness the return of his old gimmick..

Rockabilly~!
 
It's interesting to remember how hard it is to recall the sheer unpopularity of tag teams that later became very popular. In particular, BG and Road Dog were thrown together, and for the first few months, people hated it, calling them "Dog-Ass." They, needless to say, were not over.

Then they threw Funk and Jack over the stage in a dumpster, and the rest is history.

APA? It took those two over a year of tagging together to get any recognition. At first, they were simply "Bradshaw and Faarooq," until somehow they became popular; in these guys' cases, I don't think that happened until they split from the ministry (though I may be wrong).

Wrestling's funny like that; somethings take forever to work, so sometimes when I see crap, I understand. Anymore, I expect it.

I just may order victory road....tempting, tempting...

myke.

Best quote about Billy Gunn EVER! :rofl:[/quote]

I remember that.

One of my all-time favorite Rock promos was when Jericho debuted. Everyone knew that the Y2K countdown was for Jericho, but it was still awesome, I got chills watching that it was done so well. Here comes Jericho, interrupting A ROCK promo, how dare he? That was just classic. Rock and Jericho going back and forth on the mic was pure gold everytime. I think Goldust and Booker T was my favorite on screen duo though, they had great chemistry, they never had a segment that didn't crack me up. Remember when Goldust dressed up like the Rock... ha ha ha, that was so great, or when Booker T and Goldust "rated the movies" and both showed what they would've done in the Scorpion King? I have those movies saved on my "home" computer, I gotta get those up here to watch again, those were classic.
 
NWA champion Jeff Jarrett (with Scott Hall) vs. Jeff Hardy

Hardy entered first and did a lap around the ring before returning for a ladder. Jeff Jarrett came out alone. They had Jeremy Borash doing the introductions inside the ring with the competitors like a big boxing fight. During the intros, Hardy brought another ladder to the ring.

Jarrett slammed Hardy into the turnbuckles and set up the ladders in the corners, but Hardy whipped him into them. Hardy and Jarrett jockeyed for position with a ladder but Hardy ran him backwards into the corner with it. Hardy tried to slam Jarrett facefirst into the ladder but Jarrett moved his body and ended up landing stomachfirst over it. Jarrett was put inside the Ladder and Hardy hit a legdrop. Hardy put Jarrett into the ladder, that was standing upside down, and grinded the hinges into Jarrett's back. That was original!

Hardy climbed the ladder towards the NWA belt but Jarrett stopped him. Hardy hit a horrible STO. Hardy did a leapfrog over the ladder into a legdrop on Jarrett, who moved. It looked like Hardy hit the ring wrong. Jarrett whipped Hardy into a ladder. He bridged a ladder between the guard rail and the ring. The fans chanted, “Let’s go Hardy” and “Let’s go Jarrett” to each other.

Jarrett used a ladder like a battering ram, knocking Hardy to the floor, bumping the referee at the same time. Jarrett threw Hardy into the ringpost and set up the ladder. Jarrett climbed up but Hardy dropkicked off the top into the ladder. Jarrett bumped into the ring. Hardy dropped Hardy onto the ladder and hit a swanton on Jarrett, who was spread out across it.

Hardy climbed the ladder but Scott Hall hit the ring and pulled Hardy off into the Outsider’s Edge. Hall took a seat at ringside after security warned him not to interfere. Hardy and Jarrett made their way to their feet. Hardy set up the ladders like a catapult and slammed it into Jarrett’s face. The crowd loved that one. The crowd has actually been the best thing on the show, as they have been alive and loud for everything.

Jarrett and Hardy climbed the ladder at the same time and exchanged punches. Hardy pulled Jarrett off with a bulldog/facejam type move to the mat with the ladder tipping over. Scott Hall pulled Hardy out and began beating him on the floor. Hardy rushed back into the ring to tip the ladder with Jeff Jarrett over, with the idea that Jarrett would get crotched on the ropes. Jarrett’s hamstring caught the ropes instead. Jarrett sent Hardy to the floor, where he took out Scott Hall. Hardy did a running dive off a chair in the ring, taking down Hall and Jarrett on the floor.

Hardy pulled out another ladder from under the ring. This one was huge. Jarrett and Hardy brawled on the ladder. It tipped over with both bumping to the aisle, and the ladder landing on the prone Hall. Both men got to their feet and climbed their respective ladders in the ring. One tipped over but Hardy scooted over to Jarrett’s. He flipped over for a powerbomb off the ladder but Jarrett held on, then slipped off.

They brawled on the floor briefly before returning to the ring. He puts a ladder atop of Jarrett and stomps it. Hall tried to hit Hardy with a chair but Hardy kicked it in his face. Hardy hit the Twist of Fate on Hall. Hardy started climbing the ladder as Jarrett tried to get him with the guitar. Hardy kicked him off but Jarrett came back with a chair to the back. Jarrett made his way to the ring as music began to play.

Kevin Nash, grey hair and all, came to the ring with a pair of guitars. He handed on to Scott Hall. Hardy grabbed the belt as Hall hit him with a guitar. Nash then turned on Hardy and hit him as well. Hardy tried to grab the belt in vain but Jarrett finished him off with a third one and he fell off the ladder. Jarrett grabbed the belt and won the match.

Kevin Nash took the mic said that he noted Jeff Hardy was painted green tonight because he was green with envy standing next to Nash in the bathroom. Nash said that they take over like they always do and take all the money. Nash said that all the guys in the back with the one bedroom apartment hoping to make more money should just realize it’s over. He issued an open challenge to anyone in the locker room.

AJ Styles came out to the ring and took out Hall with a Pele Kick. He took Nash down but when he went to hit the Styles Clash on Jarrett, Nash hit him with a big boot. 3 Live Kru hit the ring and brawled with them but Hall hit the Outsider’s Edge on Killings and Nash hit a powerbomb on BG Jammes.

They showed a pair of feet get out of the limo and the leather pants attached to them. Pyro began going off and the lights went off as a version of Randy Savage’s music began playing. He made his way to the ring as security held him back...and the PPV went off the air.
 
Evidently there was an audience member at the TNA PPV, sitting in the front row, holding a sign that said "Hire Everybody But A-Train!"

I may disagree (we all seem to think Rock-a-Billy is useless), but that is a beautiful sign.

One sad update: Rodney Mack was on Heat last night.


He lost to Val Venis. If he didn't know at that moment he'd be losing his job, he's the dumbest man alive.

myke.
 
[quote name='GuilewasNK']The young guys are going to have a hard time breaking out with all the old blood coming back.[/quote]

...and the cycle begins anew.

Dude, when your greatest wrestling match was 17 years ago (Savage), you need to give it up.

When your best match was 10 years ago (Hall), you need to give it up.

When your best match was....er....well, I mean, when you're simply Kevin Nash, you need to give it up.

This company looks like WCW did in 1995-1996, you have got to give it up.

I'm glad I decided to order Survivor Series instead.

Something about the tna website headline "Hall and Nash side with Jarrett and shock the world!" shows a sincere disconnect with the audience.

They didn't shock shit. The only thing shocking about that show was the fact that the AMW/XXX match was the worst on the card (though there is justification for that).

myke.
 
[quote name='Zenithian Legend']I hope Savage takes up Cena's gimmick and starts rapping, and plays us some of his rap CD.[/quote]

"i'm the wrestlin' king but now i'm spittin' lyrics
took a break from the ring cuz i want ya'll to hear this
comin' on a medium nobody expected
been in the game for years and I'm still respected
macho man randy savage the true chief warrior
critics I'm ignoring' ya to ladies it's euphoria
people on the streets say "randy you the illest"
and I'm one of the realest so it's not hard to feel this

people wanna know if macho's still in the ring
people wanna know if randy's doin' his thing
people wanna know about this and that
so ima tell you right now randy savage is back"
 
Really why not do something different and have Hall & Nash form separate cliques and feud with each other. Although, a new age outlaws vs outsiders match would be pretty cool, even if both teams are now well past their primes.

over the hill wrestlers who can perform well in the ring are much better than all those young guys with no talent.

Hopefully they show some clips of the matches on Impact this week
 
The following is a press release sent out by WWE:

World Wide Fund For Nature Files Claim For Damages

STAMFORD, Conn., November 8, 2004 – World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc. ("WWE") today announced that the World Wide Fund for Nature (the “Fund") filed a claim for damages in the English High Court with respect to its suit initiated in April 2000 against WWE. The original suit alleged that WWE breached its 1994 agreement with the Fund regarding the use of the initials “wwf.” In that suit the Fund sought injunctive relief and unspecified damages for those alleged breaches.

In its recent filing, the Fund seeks actual damages for legal and other costs of approximately $575,000 and further asserts substantial monetary claims in an amount calculated as a royalty based on percentages of certain of our revenue streams. A hearing has been scheduled on the Fund’s claims for January 11, 2005.

WWE strongly disputes that the Fund has suffered any damages, believes that it has strong defenses to the Fund’s unwarranted monetary claims, and will vigorously defend against them.

Since November 2002 WWE has complied with an injunction entered in that suit barring WWE from using its former “wwf” website addresses and its former scratch logo.
 
What'd everyone think of raw tonight? I missed a bit as I kept passing out. Who won the Benjamin/Tomko match and how'd the Jericho/Snitsky highlight reel segment end? I did like the Orton/Batista and Edge/Benoit matches though.
 
well i saw the orton/batista and the main event. i was mostly falling asleep cuz i was tired and wanted to get some rest to get halo 2 (which i got) anyways

i still havent seen the whole tna ppv but i saw then ending and it was ok...no big shocker...the savage thing was pretty cool...ill see if i can post the match tommorrow..

Geuss what? There's supposed to be anoyther surprise debut at the Impact! tapings. But you didn't hear it from me. It was the little birdy.
 
[quote name='Scorch']Man.. I know who it is. It's quite obvious, every dirtsheet is reporting it. This will put NWA-TNA on the map.[/quote]

PM me and tell me who it is. I wanna see if we are thinking of the same person.
 
I know DDP wants to come out of retirement, but isn't he risking paralysis? I thought he has what Ted Dibiase and Henry O. Godwin had that forced them both to retire (neck injuries).

risking paralysis is not a bad thing, It is a good thing :D
 
I like DDP. I like DDP more b/c in his last WWE match (when he was injured), upon taking a superplex, he landed such that his legs folded over top of him (he landed on his back, essentially bent over). His feet, remarkably, came to a point together and both landed in the same spot upon hitting the mat.

Hardcore Holly's groin. I watched that spot with my old roommate for weeks, laughing our asses, off, not knowing that it was so excrutiating, oddly enough, to DDP.

myke.
 
WWE needs some decent competition, and TNA might finally be able to provide it. If they build up enough interest with their current additions, perhaps Hogan will show up, and that will only continue to draw more for them.

there are enough people to make a go at it.

Scott Hall and DDP are enough to make me watch more frequently.

I'm new too this topic but I'm really digging the TNA right now. I hadn't watched wrestling for a couple years now becasue well, it got boring and they didn't have any exhilarating character anymore like they did with The Rock, Mick Foley, etc. The TNA IMO really seems to have a run at WWE which to me has been lagging something for quite some time now. TNA really reminds me of ECW which I used to watch religiously befoer the takeover by WWE.
 
There something so wrong about that statement...

I used to want to try and get my arms larger than Scott Steiner's just so when he said "I'm the man with the largest arms in the world" I could say... oh no you're not! Ha ha, but then I realized without steroids that wasn't going to happen. So, instead I'll just go up and say, but you're not the horse with the largest...
 
they can compete talent wise but i dont think they can compete financially wise.... and most of their talent are not really on long term contracts except a few so im sure they can just walk whenever they want. also mcmahon said himself that wwe is an entertainment companie and tna is a wrestling company. he doesnt see them as competetion.

omg...you changed your avatar!!
