[quote name='Scorch']Speculation on Jericho's partner?

Someone that possibly has beef with Rhodes and DiBiase and/or someone we wouldn't expect. It'll definitely be someone we won't expect. Shawn Michaels? Undertaker? Ricky Steamboat?[/QUOTE]

If the ECW Title Match is before the Tag then I wouldnt be surprised if it is Christian. Gives him something fresh to do plus it makes sense for Jericho to go from Edge to Christian in my eyes.
 
Also, Christian and Jericho have held the titles together in the past.

F4W:
Evan Bourne was supposed to face Brian Kendrick on Raw but he was apparently pulled from Raw and the PPV Monday afternoon. Not sure what the story is but that wouldn't appear good on the surface.

That explains why he isn't in the US title match despite holding a pinfall victory over Kofi.
 
[quote name='JaytheGamefan']Excellent opening to the show, with the crowd being incredibly hot and Cena showing some great fire in his promo. God the crowd was hot for this, and it made the main event seem exciting. The opener was memorable for a variety of reasons. One is the absurd DAVE AND BUSTERS logo next to the wrestlers' names on their entrance graphics, which made the match seem like a bit of a farce, but on the upside, Primo was THE MAN in this match. His punches were the best on the show - even better than the one Lawler threw, and he showed incredible fire with everything he did. His springboard headbutt was awesome-looking too...and then they showed the U.S. title match graphic for the PPV, without him in it. Kinda weird to have the match wind up be a showcase for him and then not even put him in the title match, but whatever, the match itself was great because of him. And then Show killed everyone else, so yeah, that ruled.

Santino joining ZZ Top was fine...until serious acts like Jericho got involved. The Fozzy plug really didn't fit in with Jericho's character, actually, nothing in this skit really did, but at least they used it to make Jericho-Henry, which ruled. Mark Henry's giant swing was nice...even if he only got a couple of rotations on it. It's a perfect move given his gimmick, as is the move I thought he was going to do to Jericho when he had his legs held - the sling shot into the buckle. The DQ win was great, as it protected Jericho a bit, and made Mark Henry look great as he grabbed the chair after the match, smiled, and Jericho just kinda froze. The codebreaker block was great, too - kinda makes me wish they'd saved that for a finish to a match, but it was still awesome and Jericho sold it by looking terrified, so it at least worked here.

Kendrick-Lawler was better than Lawler's usual WWE match since he had something more to work with, and I was surprised to see King win. Sucks to be Kendrick. Mickie's promo ruled - it was a little heelish, and I liked that. That gave her more of an edge than her usual "come out and be overly happy!" stuff. Miz was great here, as was Mickie with her rebuttals. And then Maryse blinded her and acted like Maryse. Awesome.

The highlight of the "sharp dressed man" match was Lilian fuckiing every possible thing up in the intro. My God this was horrible. Both her intro and the match. Please fire Chavo, or do something to end this feud. The divas tag was better than I expected it to be. Both Kelly and Gail did some neat-looking innovative moves (I especially dug Gail's cross body press into the corner), and I'm looking forward to the F4W Raw review audio show to hear Bryan's analysis on Kelly's gymnastic moves.

The main event was definitely the best match of the second hour. HHH was a good face in peril, and the crowd was unbelievably hot for everything done in this match. They just went nuts for everything and it made the match seem much better for it. The show as a whole was definitely hurt by the ZZ Top stuff, even though Billy Gibbons was great when he was barking out matches, and the second hour was pretty bad compared to the first, which was mostly awesome.

Quotes -
Cena - ZZ TOP IS HOSTING MONDAY NIGHT RAW AND WE’RE LESS THAN A WEEK AWAY FROM NIGHT OF CHAMPIONS! OH MY GOODNESS! AT NIGHT OF CHAMPIONS, THE WWE UNIVERSE WILL SEE ONE OF THE GREATEST MATCHES OF ALL-TIME FOR THE WWE CHAMPIONSHIP! Let me put this Into perspective for you - two years ago, this was THE MAIN EVENT OF WRESTLEMANIA!
Cole - At NoC, it’s every man to himself!
Orton - I don’t know why you’re so excited - in that match, I kicked HHH in the skull and pinned you for the victory! This Sunday, history will repeat itself.
Cena - What? With this crowd tonight, I wasn’t really paying attention to you because they’re so awesome.
Cena - Your music says you hear voices in your head…that’s a little weird, and while I don’t hear voices in my head, I do hear 10,000 voices in my head that sound like they want to get an early start on Sunday and see me pound your face into mush!
Cole - IT’S HHH! THE THIRD PIECE OF THE TRIPLE THREAT PUZZLE! (HHH graphic is then put in front of Orton)
HHH - Randy, you and the girls weren’t about to start a fight, were ya? I’m at a point I didn’t think was possible - I don’t care if I win the WWE Championship, or if Cena does, on Sunday. What I care about is that you don’t!
HHH - Remember Seth Green, who…Seth Green…remember him? He’s the size of…
Cena - A Hornswoggle?
HHH - No, Hornswoggle weighs more.
Cena - Okay, a hobbit.
HHH - What the hell’s a hobbit?
Cena - Movie-thing from the Lord of the Rings.
HHH - Okay, Seth Green, a man the size of a Hobbit, beat you last week.
(on accepting the main event)Cena - I asked the magic 8 ball, it said ask again later, and I WILL DEFY IT!
Santino - IT IS MY FAVORITE BAND IN THE GALAZY! Z TOP! BILLY HILL! I LOVE YOUR COUSIN BENNY!
(after a Dave and Busters ad)Cole - KOFI BOUNCES AROUND LIKE A PINBALL MACHINE AT DAVE AND BUSTERS!
Cole - THIS MATCH SPONSORED BY DAVE AND BUSTERS! LIKE DAVE AND BUSTERS WOULD SAY, BIG SHOW IS FEEING HIS FUN!
Cole - Big Show has…some sort of problem with Kingston!
Cole - LOOK AT THE CARNEGE LEFT BY THE BIG SHOW! A BIG THANK YOU FOR DAVE AND BUSTERS FOR SPONSORING THIS MATCH!
Santino - DID YOU SEE DAT DESRUCTION AT THE HANDS OF THE BIG SHOW! THAT IS ALMOST AS EXCITING AS YOUR BIG SUMMER TOUR!
Jericho - ZZ Top and Chris Jericho together for the first time…two icons of entertainment standing in one room. I’m a fan of your band, and I’m sure you’re a fan of my band Fozzy.
Dusty - Um…
Jericho - You can hide your feelings now, but let’s jam later.
Billy - We’ve got a match with you against the strongest man on Earth, Mark Henry.
Jericho - HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO DO IT?
Dusty - HOW?
Billy - HOW?
Jericho - HOW!?
Santino - Didn’t you hear, they said how!? (then ZZ Top breaks into song using HOW as a starting point)
Cole - LOOK AT THE PLACES YOU CAN SEE ZZ TOP THIS SUMMER! (a graphic then shows up, but fails to show dates)
Kendrick - King, I was one-half of the WWE Tag Team champions for over a years. That’s one more WWE title than you’ve ever held!
Kendrick - DON’T THEY GIVE YOU A RING!? WHERE’S YOUR RING!? (Lawler then punches him)
Cole - DROPKICK FROM THE KING! HE’S STILL GOT IT!
(after a top-rope fist drop)Cole - VINTAGE JERRY THE KING LAWLER!
Mickie - Sunday is Night of Champions - not Nigh of Trampions!
Miz - In ten years, Maryse will still be beautiful and glamorous, while you’ll be working as a waitress at the Waffle House.
Mickie - Cute, did you get that off the internet like all your material? Are you jealous because I scored a pin on her?? Because from what I hear, you can’t score at all!
Lawler - Think Jericho’s still upset that ZZ Top didn’t know who Fozzy was?
Cole - Who?
Lawler - It’s smart of Jericho to attack the ankle - he broke it about 12 years ago, and reinjured it on one of our live events!
(during Henry-Jericho)King - IT’S A GIANT SWING!
Cole - WHEN’S THE LAST TIME YOU SAW THAT!?
Santino - Does this beard require conditional!?
Chavo - I DESERVE RESPECT! I’M A GUERRERO!
Dusty - I concur, which is why, tonight, you’re going to face Hornswoggle in what was called a tuxedo match - but tonight, we’ve raised the stakes to a Sharp Dressed Man.
Lilian - The following is a sharp dressed match tuxedo match! The following…THE WINNER WILL BE….
King - I’ve been informed that they made special tuxedos…and they sewed Chavo’s legs together!
Lawler - He looks like Charlie Chaplain walking up those steps…you remember him, right?
Cole - Sure…
Cole - IT’S THE MARCH OF THE PENGUINS!
King - I think Hornswoggle’s used to dressing nice - he used to be a model.

Cole - How can Kofi King…KINGSTON defend his championship!?
Rhodes - We could jump you right now, Chris, but if we did that, we wouldn’t find out who your mystery partner is gonna be. I bet you don’t even have one yet - who would want to team with a condescending, self-righteous jerk?!
Jericho - I’ve had more titles than you and your fathers combined, and you’re right, I am condescending and self-righteous. I also have the entire WWE roster knocking at my door to be my partner. Maybe it’ll be Randy Orton.
Cole - SHAQ WON AN OLYMPIC GOLD MEDALIST!
King - Do you think she’s high-maintenence?
Cole - Who? Rosa Mendes?
King - Yeah, I just wonder if she’ll spend more than I make.
King - I’m surprised you didn’t dress better tonight.
Cole - I did, I wore a tie.
King - The only way you’d be the best-dressed is at a nudist colony.
King - DOUBLE DROPKICK!
Cole - FOUR PAIRS OF LEGS! Actually two pair…
King - On Sunday, the odds are against Randy Orton, but he’s so DEVIOUS!
Cole - On Sunday, HHH is coming to win the…TITLE for the fourteenth time!

This show was awful in an awesome 90s kind of way. It really felt like I was watching The Wizard.
 
If someone were to say "Evan Bourne" and "wellness violation" in the same sentence and didn't include "highly unlikely", what would you say?
 
I know someone brought up the Karen Angle living with Jarrett scenario, but he's apparently been suspended by TNA management as well. Kurt Angle has actually refused to sign a new contract with TNA (his expires in September) as long as Jeff Jarrett is in power, so there's probably a good bit of proof to the story.
 
[quote name='JJSP']If someone were to say "Evan Bourne" and "wellness violation" in the same sentence and didn't include "highly unlikely", what would you say?[/QUOTE]

Here's what he is saying about it.

-- Evan Bourne has posted a message on his WWE Universe blog stating that he was kept off last night's Raw to continue healing his sore neck. The injury was originally sustained last week in his match against the Big Show. He did however wrestle at last night's TV taping in a match against Jamie Noble that will air on on Thursday's Superstars. Bourne says his neck was "hurting for a few days" after the Big Show speared him hard into the mat during their singles match. Bourne purposely landed on his neck to sell the move, which turned out to be a bad idea. "I've recovered quite a bit and I should be back to 100 percent soon," Bourne said. "My neck is fine, but I was certainly hurting for a few days." Bourne also posted a picture of his new t-shirt, which you can see at Fans.WWE.com.
 
Christian or Swagger if he doesn't win the US title. Losing Christian (and turning him) will leave ECW completely devoid of faces aside from Tommy Dreamer

Did you really have to quote all of JaytheGamefan's review just for that one sentence? I mean really use some common sense here.
 
[quote name='HovaEscobar']What does everybody want? Al Snow. Anyway, here are some links, if someone could download this shoot interview and convert it into audio like i did Scotty Goldman's that'd be sweet. Please do not think " who gives a shit what Al Snow thinks". This is a full video and Al Snow is a pretty opinionated guy. I'd like to hear what he has to say, do it for me ;-( [/QUOTE]

Not sure if it's the same interview, but I have an Al Snow shoot in audio form. I believe it's from late last year or early this year.

Also, Jericho's arms look puny in that flexing pic. Mine are bigger than his, and that's after I lost 40 pounds.
 
[quote name='PW Insider']It has now been confirmed that Jeff Jarrett and Karen Angle are in fact romantically involved, as was revealed on Bubba The Love Sponge by an anonymous caller. It has been rumored within the company among wrestlers for months, but it had never really been confirmed.

There are several sources saying that the relationship dates back to last fall, when Jarrett and Kurt Angle were feuding on TV. Kurt may have even been aware it was going on back then.

Contradictory to previous reports, sources now say that Jarrett’s time off was his decision, and wasn’t forced upon him by Dixie Carter. The decision was apparently made after recent issues arose between Kurt and Karen regarding the custody of their children. The word going around at the Impact tapings was that Jeff removed himself from TNA while the custody issues are ongoing. Until those issues became heated, Jarrett and Angle had been able to co-exist.

Regarding stories of Angle’s push for the TNA creative reigns, those within the company feel that it won’t happen and there is no major push for a new creative team right now.

There are a number of people in the company who would love to know who it was that called the Bubba The Love Sponge show and aired out the whole situation.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, I'm sure that's going to end well.
 
I wish they would give Goldust a new gimmick.

Goldust was probably the best gimmick I have ever seen in action back when it was first debuted but it's so far from the source now and I bet Dustin could get over as a huge babyface if they would let him off his leash.

Also lol at his wiki entry.

Dustin married Terri Runnels on July 25, 1993 and together they have a daughter named Dakota, who was born on February 14, 1994. Dustin and Terri divorced after a six-year marriage in 1999, but still maintain a healthy friendship for the sake of their daughter, who remains pretty screwed up because her dad is a freak. Rhodes' real life half-brother is Cody Rhodes, who wrestles for the WWE on the RAW brand.

Dustin married his second wife, Milena Martelloni on December 18, 2002. They had been dating for 18 months prior to the marriage.[8] Milena and Dustin have since divorced, and he is now dating a woman by the name of Tarel.[9] You know she is good in the sack with a name like that.

On March 19, 2003, Dustin visited the Howard Stern Show and was a wildly popular character on the radio show because of his Tourette's syndrome gimmick. Stern's sidekick Artie Lange often calls him one of his all time favorite guests. He still shows up, but only to shatter dreams.

At the WWE Hall of Fame induction ceremony on March 31, 2007, he stated "All my life I've wanted to be exactly like my dad." And because of his gay tendencies, he was indeed, much like his dad.
 
So I listened to the call on Bubba, I'm thinking the caller is Rudy Charles. He just got released, he was buddies with JJ and in TNA from the start..

Could you send it to me or give me a link then? I'd really appreciate it.
 
Is JJ trying to get custody of Kurt's kids or something? Or is he just banging his wife? What's the deal?

[quote name='strongpimphand']TNA is coming near my town in a few weeks...should I go?

Yes. Their house shows are awesome.

I just finished watching Victory Road. I don't know why people were so down on it. The matches were pretty good, except for the Jenna/Sharmell match, and the main event even had a finish that didn't involve outside interference.

The Wrestling Observer reports:

Beth Phoenix has been MIA from RAW for the past few weeks now, and now we can confirm that Beth Phoenix has taken time off as she and her husband, Joey Knight, are now expecting their first child. It has been said that Beth has been given a minimum of a year of work, with her expected to take at least a year an a half off, however, Backstage officials are unsure if Beth will return to WWE after her pregnancy.
 
That sucks.

I mean congratulations. ;) Really, though, good for them, even if it means that virtually all of the wrestling talent is gone from the WWE women now. God knows that Gail Kim's in that "you're in the shithouse for going to TNA" roster spot like Christian is, so she's not going to get a sudden push.

Maybe Natalya can step up to the plate? Which of the three dozen identical looking women on the wwe roster can do it?
 
Congrats to Beth on the kid, but like myke said, it's a pretty critical blow to the women's division.

I've been watching wrestling pretty halfheartedly this week (wanted to catch up on other shows), which is why I've been so quiet these past few days.
 
you referring to these?

There was a lot to like about this week's show along with the usual pile of issues that come with the territory on Impact. Taz's promo was great, and did a fine job of setting up his relationship with Joe. I like that he wore something casual tonight, as opposed to his suit at the PPV - it gave the impression that he could get physically involved if need be, which wasn't the case with that bulky suit. The X Title match was fine - not spectacular, but as a storyline-based match, it served its purpose and allowed Hernandez to come back as a huge star. I also liked Taz shaking his head at Joe losing due to his rage, and at least they tried to explain why the Mafia didn't go for the title at the PPV, even if it made no sense. "One at a time"...on a show where they went after two titles. Yeah...

Nash-Red ruled due to Red's selling and DW's commentary. Tenay calling DW over the top was amazing. Foley stating that Angle could have his office, but not his prized picture of he and JB was stupid - but at least he cut another promo later burying the ____ on a pole matches. The Tag title match wasn't nearly as amusing as the X Title one, but at least had a hope spot with the top rope splash.

The knockouts battle royal ruled - it served a few different storylines, and I liked ODB being put back in the title hunt, Tara getting more revenge on Slick, and Traci winning. She's better as a heel, and Nash was hilarious on commentary, and after the match when he grabbed Traci's ass. TBP's segment afterwards was also awesome thanks in part to THE DEANER being great and bragging about his flea market cologne, then lamenting the destruction of the Deaner Diamonds.

The ten-man tag was good, but short, and man did the "Originals" ever come across like goofs by having a super-generic theme and rotating TNA logo as their entrance video. They've thrown that name around for months now and couldn't even do SOMETHING to make a logo for it? Why not use the Front Line stuff again? EY's heel turn wasn't the least bit shocking, but done well. The piledriver being put over as a huge deal was nice to see - it's a shame it wasn't done BEFORE THIS so it might've actually meant something. Still, at least they kind of tried.

The main event was okay - nothing special, although I did find it memorable thanks to Foley's Dude Love/Cactus/Mankind combo ring attire. Also, I don't recall another ___on a pole match not having a finish. The post-match deal with Lashley was great - although I think it might have been better served for next week's show. Here, it came off as a little too rushed since there was so much going on tonight, but still, they did pay off his MEM tease from Lockdown and built him up as the last hope for TNA, so they did a good job with him here. I also like the God of Thunder moniker given to him.

Taz - History lesson - many years ago I wrestled for a promotion called ECW. And during my time, unfortunately, I sustained some career-shortening spinal injuries which prevented me from wrestling! So the bottom line is that was cut short for me, and I called hundred of matches for the WWE as a color commentator. But, as cool as that was, I felt like there was more I could do, so one night I filck on TNA Wrestling. So I watch and I see this untapped force loaded with cred and potential and I swear to God, it took me back a decade - what I saw was the second coming of Taz! What I saw was Samoa Joe! Even though Joe and myself had a lot in common, there’s a difference - Joe would show remorse, where I was not capable of that! So I reached out to Joe, had a conversation with him and said that you wanna win titles and get money - not be Mr. popular. So next thing ya know, I become the teacher, he’s the student and he’s on everybody’s radar! And the one man that pursued the most aggression to get his services was the 13-time world champion - Kurt Angle. For that, Joe and myself are forever indebted to him and the prestigious Main Event Mafia. So here’s the deal - tonight, Joe brings some more gold to the Mafia. Tonight, he becomes the TNA X Division Champion! I got a message for Homicide - beat Joe if you can BROTHA, BUT SURVIVE IF HE LETS YOU!
