The Macho Man Randy Savage Wrestling Memorial Thread

Oh the irony:

http://www.sescoops.com/wrestling-news/wwe/randy-orton-concussion/

Randy Orton suffered a legitimate concussion at WWE’s Smackdown house show from Madrid, Spain on Sunday. The injury occurred during the triple-threat main event match for the World Heavyweight title against Christian and Sheamus. Orton was asked on Twitter why he didn’t wrestle on RAW, to which he responded:
“because I was knocked out in Spain. U can’t wrestle, or should i say, perform, the day after a concussion.”
In case Orton is not medically cleared to wrestle Christian at Sunday’s Capitol Punishment pay-per-view, the concussion angle WWE ran on RAW will be the explanation.
In the event that a WWE performer suffers a concussion, WWE’s Wellness policy requires that hey must pass an Impact Concussion Test.
We’ll be following this story throughout the week, so stay tuned to SEScoops.com for the latest on Randy Orton’s medical status.
 
So, here is the question now. Who do they bring in to wrestle for the belt at the PPV Sunday if Orton isn't cleared? Sheamus is the only person they've even been remotely putting in the title scene outside of Christian and Orton, but I can't see a heel v. heel match for a vacated title getting that much attention or interest from a crowd, especially if it is dropped on them last minute.

EDIT: Who told all of you I vacation in Chyna?!?! That was a secret o_O

What's more interesting to me is that the "performers" somehow or another got from Madrid after a house show to Long Island in time to actually put on a live TV show.
That's kind of mind blowing.

During the main event they were very hot, but that's about it. After watching that Nitro DVD, it is clear we're still a long way off from matching the late 90's. It's incredible to see some of those reactions.
 
Picked up the Best of Nitro/Four Horsemen dvd sets from KMart. Watching the set I came away impressed with Syxx (Sean Waltman). The dude could flat out go back in the day.

Please, quit trolling and just go back to begging people to split the cost of a cheap iPPV with you. At least then you had some credibility......

I don't know about literally today, but Waltman had an incredible match against AJ Styles in TNA in... 2004ish. Going into it I had heard that his neck problems meant that he had to tone it down so I was expecting AJ to really be the one bouncing off the walls. I don't know if his neck improved after finishing in WCW/WWE but he was on a tear against AJ.

Shame about his general skeeziness.

EDIT - And my initial reason for stopping by tonight, to laugh at the WWE's top 50 DVD. It's on right now via Netflix and wow, Hogan at #23. Right. Look, I realize that it's a WWE production and as such, those who "wronged" the company over the years got downplayed, but the former history major in me is furious at the lack of integrity in this production. You don't necessarily have to put him at 1, but putting him outside the top 5 is a fucking joke.

I knew that DVD was bullshit as soon as I saw that 1) Batista was on the list at all and 2) Cena outranked Flair.

You know their list is bad when they start acknowledging that it's just opinions of the current roster and making excuses for it.
 
[quote name='masked lemon']1. Hogan
2. Flair
3. Savage

Not on list at All: 95% of the current roster[/QUOTE]

That would work for me. So would...

1. Hogan
2. HBK
3. Flair
4. Undertaker
5. Savage

Or some other combination of those guys plus Rock, Austin, maybe Bret.

There were some cool moments. If I'm remembering correctly (I wasn't paying 100% attention), Mr. Perfect was ranked one above Cena.
 
XPac seems to be a guy who has mellowed with age - every time I see/hear him now or read any news about him he seems to be a pretty decent guy.
 
I can safely say that I'm really interested on his perspective on his time in the business, so that's a huge change of pace from...when he was in the business.
 
[quote name='Purple Flames']I knew that DVD was bullshit as soon as I saw that 1) Batista was on the list at all and 2) Cena outranked Flair.[/QUOTE]

At least Batista was fairly low on the list (49?). It allowed me to see where they were going with the list and turn it off before I wasted too much time.

You guys should check out pacs tv show on cowhead TV every Wednesday at 7pm central. Real cool dude and cool guests every week. I've seen MVP, Nash, Road Dogg, HTM, Animal, Bullet Bob, DDP, and too many others to name. One week somebody called in and asked him what it was like banging Jenna Jameson, pacs response "what the fuck do you think? It was great"
 
you guys are missing a legit good TNA impact tonight. incredible Aries/Rave/Kash 3 way. The match had Austin and Kash both trending each on Twitter. RVD/Joe match and some great comedy spots by Showtime EY.
 
Gunner's talking was actually pretty good tonight. Unfortunately Anderson almost stabbed him in the eye with a glass...pretty good gash along his eyebrow.
 
I hope Waltman finally has his life together. He at least seems to have his head straight. Still blows my mind to think I watched him as the 123 Kid run out on that match with Scott Hall all those years ago. Still one of the funnier endings to a match I think, especially since there is a guy on the street walking by right as Hall runs out after Sean.
 
AWESOME show overall. I could've done without the Team Challenge Series 2.0 with the wacky points and seemingly random guys being a part of it, but at least it puts a focus on SOMETHING that will probably last longer than the "revolutionary" top 10 rankings back in early 2010. Loved the X division three way a lot. Aries worked like a man possessed and it really helped the match. Rave was...a guy. Kid Kash looked fantastic given his age and high risk style. Bad tats aside, it was crazy to see him do a top rope flip dive to the floor. The Sting-Hogan deal backstage was definitely odd - it was like he was trying to be Heath Ledger's Joker, but wound up as a mix between that and Jim Carrey's Riddler. I did like that Hogan actually did something face-ish to build to a turn and that by having it shot behind the blinds, they were able to have Sting do something somewhat physical to Hogan (pushing him back in his chair, yes, this counts now) instead of doing it in the ring where, you know, Hogan can't actually take anything involving his back. The women's tag was tremendous. I'm all for a lesbian teamup of Velvet and Tessmacher. Enjoyed Jackie's return. Could've done without seeing or hearing ODB. Joe-RVD was very good, despite some weird-looking stuff like RVD's...thing they said was a dropkick to the knee that looked like a drop toe hold into the corner, RVD flying before really being hit by Joe on the apron and the spinny-ma-do kick thing not connecting, but hell, it was worlds better than Joe's match at the PPV or RVD's matches in a long while, so I dug it.

Devon and Pope's feud, or partnership, or whatever did...something. I think. They really should've just done this on Impact, because doing it on Xplosion and then doing voice overs to tell tiny parts of the story just isn't working. They established that Devon, for some reason, has a problem with Pope, who last we saw, TRIED TO KILL SOMEONE and now he's doing stuff with Devon's family. Just weird. Speaking of weird, EY and Morgan's exchange over...I think how pointless the TV Title is, leading to EY beating Jason Hervey with Austin Aries as the referee in a 24/7 TV Title match...I think was...yeah. Part of me hopes that this leads to EY vs. PMT for the EGOT Title, but it really felt out of place on a "we're serious now" reset show. Loved the Steiner-Bully promo, minus Bully calling Steiner old and then saying that he's been beating guys up just as long as Steiner, which I guess makes him old too. Steiner at least went with HE LIKES SUGAR, BUT I DON'T GOT NO DONUTS! Steiner's awesome rants against obesity continue and TNA could just do a DVD of his promos and I'd buy it.

Gunner-Anderson was built up sorta well with the opening deal that left Anderson in a seemingly familiar state - out cold surrounded by snack food. The match itself was greatly hurt by Anderson, who not only didn't bring the belt to the ring with him, but worked a super-slow style, got boring chants, and led to Taz saying he's in no rush. Yeah, no shit. Match was boring as hell, was a step back for Gunner in the ring, but actually did give him another clean win over a world champion. Having Anderson do his ANDERSON...ANDERSON! deal during the match set him up as too cocky, which fit into him I think turning heel-ier in the opening, and led to his own demise since he got not-F5ed by Gunenr and beat. On paper, they're doing the wins and losses part of this thing right, but Gunner needs better gear, a better entrance video than GUNNER with a sawblade appearing randomly, A NAME FOR HIS FINISHER, and something other than generic rock music for this main event push to really click. Dale Oliver can make some decent knock-offs, so comb the top 40, find SOMETHING that fits this guy and go with it.

The Jarrett-Angle brawl was fantastic overall. It had an intensity that many things in TNA, or wrestling in general, lack. Jeff took some crazy bumps on concrete for a guy in his 40s, then took an Angle slam on a car. This whole deal ruled...then they showed EY with the double gold and that kinda hurt it. Bully Ray's swearing was uncensored at times which actually added a lot to this as well and it all ended with not quite a finish, but I was fine with it. The faces, or at least Pope, who I guess was a face here, said Jeff admitted defeat, Bully and Gunner, who is also I think a tweener of some sort, said he didn't. This was an awesome TV show and easily the best Impact I can remember since The Whole F'N Show in AUGUST of last year. The key here is follow-up, but hell, they pulled off something great tonight, built up the 7-14 Impact, the D-X PPV by having a contract at stake during it, the No Surrender show with the BFG Series finals, and BFG by having it be the end-all, be-all for the BFG Series. TNA did a lot right here, and after doing so very many things wrong at the PPV, I was very pleasantly surprised.

I came here to do one thing and one thing only! AND QUITE FRANKLY, I DON’T NEED ANYBODY IN THE BACK! I don’t need you people! I really don’t. I don’t need the fatass sitting at home whose wife is about to leave ya. THERE ARE 5 PEOPLE WHO ARE IMPORTANT TO ME! MY FIVE YEAR OLD NEICE, MY WIFE, AND ME, MYSELF, AND I! Welcome to the party…
Gunner - Sorry to ruin your “party” with all your friends…DO YOU HAVE MEMORY LOSS!? I remember someone coming to me a week ago and asking me for my help. FOR ME TO HELP HIM CRIPPLE STING! To make sure Sting didn’t go in 100%, does that ring a bell?
Anderson - A little bit, but it’s not accurate, completely.

I’m here to talk about why I put my gold medal on the line, in ‘96, I wanted to be the best in the world and I trained 8-10 hours a day and at the Olympics, I was the best and I won a gold medal for my country! Fast forward to Slammiversary, I offered my gold medal up for the number 1 contendership because I wanted to have that same feeling of being at my best, and I was - I made Jeff tap out. THE WORLD TITLE WOULD MEAN EVERYTHING TO ME, but there’s a competitive side that doesn’t quit. So I’ve been training super-hard, but I’m trying out for the Olympic wrestling team in 2012! You can call me crazy, that I’m going through a mid-life crisis, BUT I’M 43 AND NO ONE’S EVER DONE IT BEFORE!

LET’S FINISH IT - THEY’LL BE NO KAREN, NO KIDS, NO MMA, NO CAGE MATCHES, JUST ME AND YOU ONE ON ONE! EITHER YOU WALK OUT AND I’LL BE FLAT ON MY BACK OR VICE VERSA - TNA ISN’T BIG ENOUGH FOR THE BOTH OF US! So Kurt, I’LL LEAVE THE COUNTRY AND MOVE TO MEXICO. I WANT ONE LAST SHOT, NOW ARE YOU GONNA MAN UP AND ACCEPT!?
Angle - You remind me of a gnat I keep swatting away and it keeps coming back. And of the many things you are - a liar, cheat, and scumbag. AND YOU’RE A PRICK! And the list can go on, but the one thing I thought you had was honor for the business - IT’S IN YOUR BLOOD. WHAT WOULD YOUR ANCESTORS THINK IF YOU PROMISED THAT OUR LAST MATCH WOULD BE SLAMMIVERSARY, THAT’S HONORING THE BUSINESS! YOU OWE IT TO YOUR ANCESTORS TO MOVE ON WITH YOUR LIFE! DEAL WITH IT! Hold on a sec, you wanna talk about keeping your word that you’ll move to Mexico? YOUR WORD MEANS NOTHING - TWO YEARS AGO, YOU PROMISED THAT NOTHING WAS GOING ON WITH YOU AND KAREN, YOUR WORD MEANS NOTHING. Now if you get a legal document written up in an hour and a half, and there are attorneys back there who can do it, that you’ll move to Mexico without MY KIDS, then you gotta deal!
Jeff - GET THE PEN AND THE PAPER, I’M ALL IN!
Angle - I’LL SEE YOUR PUSSY ASS IN THE PARKING LOT!
Tenay - DID YOU HEAR THAT!?
Taz - Yes I DID!
Ad Guy - IT’S TIME. THE BOUND FOR GLORY SERIES HAS ARRIVED. 12 IW SUPERSTARS - WHO WILL MAIN EVENT THE BIGGEST EVENT IN IMPACT WRESTLING!

I was going to watch anyway but this locks it.
 
Former ROH World Tag Team Champions Chris Hero and Claudio Castagnoli were on hand for this week's WWE television tapings in New York and Rhode Island. Both worked out in the ring in front of officials before each show.

Castagnoli signed a developmental contract with WWE in November 2006 but was released a short while later for reasons that have yet to be publicly disclosed.

You guys think anything will come of that?

In unrelated news, Warriah's video about Hogan is supposed to come out later today. You think he'll release it?
 
[quote name='JJSP']I'd kill for a Danielson/Hero/Claudio faction. Claudio's already been released once, but a man can dream.[/QUOTE]

While I can appreciate that wish the reality of how that faction would be so horribly mishandled by WWE makes it almost preferable that it will never happen.
 
They would make Claudio the Swedish Chef, who hosts a cooking show on WWE Raw that provides an easy opportunity for feuds, when the heels show up and substitute chervil for parsley, ruining his souffle..

Chris Hero would turn into Leopold Farquar, nautical captain from the 19th Century. He'll carry a fishing spear to ringside and dress like the Gorton's fisherman.
 
TNA has released Desmond Wolfe aka former ROH champion Nigel McGuinness, PWInsider.com has confirmed. Wolfe, who had been sidelined for some time with a health issue that prevented him from wrestling for the company, was last seen appearing as the TNA Xplosion Commissioner, setting up a tournament on that internationally syndicated series.
After a stellar run with Ring of Honor that included a ROH title run, Wolfe was slated to sign with WWE but the company opted not to sign him after he went through their screening proces. TNA immediately snapped him up and put him into an angle with Kurt Angle that led to some great matches.
Wolfe was put on the back-burner when the Bischoff-Hogan regime entered the picture and never regained his momentum in the company before injuries forced him out of the ring.
In recent months, he has been writing a sitcom and has also been doing stand-up in the Orlando area.

Any other time, I would have been happy about this, but, if his health is a bad as it's being made out to be, that means no return to ROH for killer matches, which REALLY sucks. Maybe he could go back in a managerial role?

The worst was his tank top/trunks combo. He's built like Edge but insists on wearing pajamas to the ring.

I want t-shirts for these characters. NOW.
 
I don't know about Hero and his gut but Vince has got to have a massive hard-on for Claudio since he bulked up a few years ago. It would blow my mind if they passed on him again. The guy has even shifted his moveset to that of a heavyweight.
 
My nickname for Sheamus is Sheamus

I wish Kaitlyn would put me in a headscissor lock with them thick thighs...DAYUM!
