Looks like Kevin Nash has come down with a big case of Twitter rage. Don't know if it's all legit or just a work for his current storyline in TNA, but he's saying he's leaving once his contract is up.

I'd make up some hackneyed realtion to 10-10-10, but at this point, I can't even be arsed to make something up about TNA.
 
If this Kevin Nash tweet-rage is a story: nWo 2.0. Or, as TNA would call it, "n2.0".

If this Kevin Nash tweet-rage is legit: Good riddance/A nice step in the right direction.
 
I'll never really understand why people beef on social networking sites. It looks so petty...
 
There was no Impact last night, which is why it didn't record.





I was really thinking about the Nash thing, and I realized I have no response here.

If it's real, Nash is out of the business and I don't care.

If it's a swerve, it's nothing I care about.

I win either way, really.
 
So it would seem that Lucha Libre has been bumped off so MTV2 can show the Lingerie Football League. Yeah..... Guess the ratings will tell which is the worse of two evils.
 
Oh okay... weird.


Smackdown tonight. yawn. I watched nXt last night. I think AJ is the hottest, but Naomi seems to be the best wrestler so far. None of them seem very good.

Crap. I liked LLUSA
 
oh I forgot the Daytona center is the same place where the nWo was born at bash at the beach and that's where the PPV will be.
 
Sabu is wrestling with some Lansing-based shitbomb indie promotion in my city, and I'm wondering if I should go... I'd really only be going for the chance of paying $20 to get a picture with Sabu, but who knows if that would even pan out.

I could wear a shirt from work (radio station), and bring a mic and maybe get a picture for free. lolllllll
 
[quote name='JJSP']I'd be stoked if Dixie took a powerbomb off of the stage.[/QUOTE]


I'd be stoked if Dixie took a powerbomb into a dumpster, locked the dumpster, then pushed said dumpster into a volcano.
 
No Smackdown comments? For shame. Decent show. Kaval losing his first match was disappointing, but oh well. He'll M. Bison his way back next week, I'm sure.

ADR's announcer was great tonight, too. His translated introduction:

"Ladies and gentlemen, it is my great honor to present to you a man who got rid of that little dog of a chihuahua Rey Mysterio. He is a powerful millionaire and extremely handsome, he is Alberto del Rio."

:lol:

Undertaker/CM Punk...do I really have to say anything else?

[quote name='JJSP']I completely forgot how HUGE of a pop DDP got when he debuted in the WWF. DDP actually took a massive pay cut in order to work with the WWF, and they completely dropped the ball on how to use him.[/QUOTE]

They didn't know how to use any WCW wrestlers. Did some digging and found a video of Sting explaining why he didn't go to WWE. Which pretty much sums up why the "WCW Invasion" failed horribly.

So since the last spot in the 6-way title match will be revealed at the PPV and Cena will be filming his next movie at the end of October, we should be just about due for a HHH comeback, right?

Nothing like HHH and his sledge to kill off the NXT guys. I bet we see them in a a box getting shipped off to Florida. :rolleyes:
 
nothing like HHH coming to the ring with sledgehammer and turning on Cena and Orton and joining NXT... HHH is better as the MegaHEEL anyways.

A few reasons why I like modern-day WWE: Little ties to new, developing talent/tenured interest in a small selection of talent, little-to-no McMahon presence in the programming, and little-to-no expectations.

It's a relief.

I have always hated seeing the McMahons on TV. Yes, Shane has nifty entrance music, and Stephanie has tits--but I much prefer seeing actual wrestlers on TV instead of Vince, Stephanie, Shane, and, good god, Linda.

I hated the Invasion arc--specifically because of Shane, Vince, and Stephanie. They injected themselves into the story, and, because of this, ruined the biggest potential story in the history of North American pro wrestling--if not of all things pro wrestling.

We, as fans, had so much invested into this story. In 2001, I had watched WCW and WWE for decades, and ECW since the mid-1990s. To see WWE fuck up a WCW-WWE-ECW angle killed most of my enthusiasm and love for pro wrestling.

WWE mishandled WCW and ECW talent--and, from what I've heard and read, it's because Vince McMahon can be petty, and stubborn in regards to ring style.

That's what I like about today's WWE: Little-to-no personal investment. There's no Diamond Dallas Page, Lance Storm, Mike Awesome, Rhino, Raven, and Kanyon to misuse. There's no Shane Helms to retard and turn into a...fucking retard. There's no Tajiri to turn into a stereotypical Asian sidekick, or Super Crazy to turn into a lawn-mower driving, fat shell of his former self.

I have little invested into most of today's WWE talent. "And that's not a bad thing...that's...a good thing."

*head explodes*
 
I started watching Raw circa 1996, so a lot of this stuff is all new to me. I know Vince and Bobby Heenan are doing commentary (great team, btw), but who's the third person that occasionally chimes in with stuff? This is during the Ric Flair vs Mr. Perfect "Loser leaves WWE" match.

And no, it wasn't Randy Savage.
 
Is anybody else watching Glory by Honor IX tonight? It will be actual wrestling and it's only $15. I won't be able to watch it tonight but hopefully tomorrow. If you've complained about the poor product quality from WWE and TNA this year (and who in their right mind hasn't?) then put your money where your mouth is and pony up the lousy 15 bones. ROH is in NYC for this PPV so the crowd is guaranteed to be hot. Here's a link to buy it and a rundown of the card.

http://www.gofightlive.tv/Events/Fight/Wrestling/Ring_of_Honor__Glory_by_Honor_IX/733

Main Tyler Black vs. Roderick Strong
Co-main Eddie Edwards vs. Shawn Daivari
Co-main Steve Corino and Kevin Steen vs. El Generico and Colt Cabana chain match
Co-main Claudio Castagnoli and Chris Hero vs. Shelton Benjamin and Charlie Haas
Undercard Jay Briscoe vs. Kenny King
Undercard Austin Aries vs. "The Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels
Undercard Necro Butcher and Erick Stevens vs. Grizzly Redwood and Balls Mahoney
Undercard Mark Briscoe vs. Rhett Titus
 
Just a friendly reminder to everyone that....

... is tonight on GoFightLive.tv for $14.95. Quite a few good matches on this card. Looking forward to it starting in a few minutes. :)

Edit: neocisco is thinking the same thing I am. Except I'll be watching it live tonight.
 
I'm surprised any of you are ordering the Ring of Honor Glory By Honor IX PPV. Hell, I didn't think anyone here but me watched ROH on HDNet weekly. GBHIX looks like a damn good card, but it's either $15 for the PPV or $20 for the SummerSlam Blu-ray, so I won't be ordering.

Regarding SummerSlam, it sucks that the only way to get a program (didn't want to pay full price at the show; only had a limited amount of money for food) is to buy the program/DVD package from WWEShop. No individual programs, and the Blu-ray is Best Buy exclusive, so no dice on that.
 
How is it that Balls Mahoney can use that name in ROH, but at the Hardcore Justice atrocity he had to go by Kohones?
 
[quote name='Habbler']How is it that Balls Mahoney can use that name in ROH, but at the Hardcore Justice atrocity he had to go by Kohones?[/QUOTE]

My guess? ROH is not as big of a target TNA for Vince's ire.
 
Awesome PPV. Marked hard when
Strong won the title, even though it was a bit predictable since Black signed with WWE.

Man, when Tyler did Cena's taunt and the STFU the crowd was livid. Great stuff. WGTT vs. KOW was phenomenal, and Daniels/Aries was a bit slow at first but picked up well. Overall, a very fun PPV.
 
Rumor has it that Ring Of Honor was actually turning away people at the door who had tickets (and gave them refunds) since they oversold the show.

That is fucked up.
 
RIP Norman the Lunatic.

From Wikipedia:
At one point he feuded with Bam Bam Bigelow during a storyline in which Booger fell in love with Bigelow's valet, Luna Vachon. While teaming with Bigelow on the January 3, 1994 episode of Monday Night Raw, Booger kissed Vachon, causing Bigelow to get angry.Booger and Bigelow faced each other the following week, and Bigelow won the match after Vachon distracted Booger by blowing him kisses.The Bastion Booger gimmick began to become popular with some fans, which spurred talks of turning the character face. However, the WWF decided to release Shaw in early 1994.


So everyone in this angle is dead 16 years later? Weird.
 
[quote name='Chuplayer']Another wrestler died?[/QUOTE]

yes. it's like you have a problem with concentration.

(sorry man, I had to take that shot.. golden opportunities don't come that often :p)

i can't say that i was ever a fan of the booger.. I can say that I was proud of myself for not vomiting every time he came on the screen. It's sad that it's another wrestler's death, but it was probably the guy's own fault.
