I won\'t spoil it for those who haven\'t seen it yet but Vince just named the new GM for smackdown and it had to be the stupidest move ever. DAMMIT:rpissed: Things really took a dive now I mean B!tchoff was bad enough but this is just overkill....why
-
ummm, cause wrestling\'s fake?
-
MM quit being a whore.
as for SD, I\'m happy with it, because of one reason (spoiler ahead)
Boobs!!!! I\'d slap skins with her any day of the week.
-
They admitted wrestling was fake a long time ago althrough the average nasayer would get his ass kicked in the ring against a pro wrestler but I respect your opinion anyway. But I\'m still pissed at the GM dammit what in the hell were they thinking. Well maybe the omen has a point I mean there\'s that appeal now only if they duct tape the mouth shut...
-
Hmm sounds like I need to go to a site and find out who the GM is. And to put it simple the WWE would have been better had it not done the roster split, imo.
EDIT: I figured they\'d be the Smackdown! GM.:rolleyes:
-
Hmm things took an interesting turn at the end of Smackdown maybe this could work after all only time will tell
-
Yeah it\'s all scripted, but all wrestlers take a physical beating in the ring.
Moves that RVD does or Brock Lesner take great talent and strength to do.

Yeah jumping from a ladder through tables and miss, i.e. TLC II, those guys had to be shredded. And when Jeff Hardy faced RVD and missed and landed through that table he was out for a few weeks.

Who\'s the manager I missed SD
-
hey for me wwe its fun, entertaining, and funny, so what if its fake? its like a soap opera for guyz :).

Stephanie McMahon.

I don\'t get how people can be against the Brand Extension.
First benefit was the new guys. Lesnar, anyone? John Cena, Batista, Randy Orton, Chris Nowinski, and my new favorite wrestler, Jackie Gayda. They would be no where without the extension.
And the cruiserweights. Kidman, Chavo, Knoble (Nidia), and soon Rey Jr. wouldn\'t have a place in the old system.
Then there\'s the mid-card that\'s resurfaced. OK, so we get guys like Mark Henry and Val Venis who haven\'t been very fun yet, but what about Tommy Dreamer, Lance Storm and his group, Stevie Richards, Bradshaw, Spike Dudley, Jeff Hardy, and the others.
The brand extension is giving these guys a place. That\'s another reason I\'m glad Stone Cold is gone. His thirty minute what-a-thons are being replaced with kendo stick matches, ladder matches, and mixed-tag matches featuring Jackie Gayda!
Come on.
Oh, and while I might have to warm up to the idea of Smackdown\'s GM, I like that these GM\'s have firmly established the idea of competing brands (something McMahon/Flair just flirted with). This is going to make for good tv, just like with the old Monday night wars.
I wonder if Bischoff will try to trade Jackie Gayda for the Rock?

Yes, exactly. But the Rock as next champ? I hope not...:(
Possible Spoilers:
I just new it was gonna be a McMahon child. But after Vince reffered to both GM\'s as men, I figured Shane. But oh well. Stephanie seems to have gotten a tad better with her mic skills, although her voice is still just as annoying. :crap:
-
I had truly hoped Stephanie gone for good.
I don\'t like the Chris -winski from Tough Enough and I don\'t understand why they gave him a contract but I don\'t really care.
Speaking of Dreamer, did u see the match on RAW between him and Raven, you could have heard someone\'s cell phone ring in the arena the fans were so quiet.
-
Well that\'s because at the time, WWE fans didn\'t have a reason to like either of them, but now they\'ve at least gotten behind Dreamer. Raven is still a nothing. They should make him into something cool, even with him just on Heat, it\'d make for a reason to watch Heat.
Then maybe have Bischoff let him back on Raw after looking at footage of what he\'s been up to.
I dunno.
But at least Dreamer is on his way.
-Eik
-
Dreamer has been the god of entertainment recently. His crazy eating habits were hilarious (drinking Takers tobacco spit was disgusting.. he then followed it up with hilarity "Thanks buddy, thats pretty good.. have you got anymore") and his in ring has been awesome as well. That Singapore cane match was unbelievable. I have lots of respect for Steven Richards now as well.
The only problem with the brand extension is that I only get to see Kurt Angle once a week :(

I think you were the jinx that caused that talentless girl to come back.
BTW..this 30 day old post was brought to you by b00b..err b0b
-
Actuallly I like what the WWE has done...this one-upsmanship contest between steph and Eric is funny!
:hat:ScottyJ:hat:
-
Yah, but now SmackDown have the two best talents (Angle and Lesnar) and no one else... I mean come on.. Angle vs. Henry, and Lesnar vs. Rikishi!? What a waste!!
Althought Benoit is up there too :D
-
there is a HUGE change that Brock will beat the ROck next weekend.....since the rock is going to go do more movies.they need more BIG NAME talent on Smackdown (how can you forget Rey Misterio JR (the WWE took out the JR)...they could make him a "giant killer" starting with angle.....and Angle might me going to the olympics........
:hat:ScottyJ:hat:
-
Angle going to the olympics is the worst thing possible for the WWE. He has been their best talent, and top heel for the last year. Easily the most entertaining person in the organisation within the last year. And with the rating as poor as they currently are... that\'s not good :p
Brock will beat Rock, I\'m sure of it. I\'m also pretty sure of an Angle vs. Brock thing next. I hope Brock retains the title at least until Wrestlemania. Eventally Edge will get a shot at Brock as well. At which point I hope an F-5 goes horribly wrong and Edge\'s neck is snapped.
Rey Mysterio is merely ok. I\'m not too interested in watching him do the same moves over and over again, much like what Jeff Hardy, RVD and every other WWE wrestler has turned into.
-
Im happy with it, wrestlings good at them momment
-
anyonne else waiting for Brock to win a match fairly? they\'re making it seems like the guy can\'t win by himself, and it\'s piss\'n me off.
-
Yeah I know.. he\'s meant to be unstoppable, but they keep this \'\'ambiguous" ending shit where he was PROBABLY going to lose, but you\'ll never know.
Anyways.. awesomeness on Smackdown was Batista breaking up with D\'Von. Batista is gonna get a big push I hope. I like him :D
-
yeah Batitsta is getting a push, or at least that\'s what they said on a rumor site. Damn I can\'t wait to see Batista vs Brock. I wonder who the writers will make out to be the stronger of the two?
-
oh yes, I like I said in another thread, BATISTA VS. BROCK!!!!
-
or Batista VS Brock VS Bull Buchanan....the battle of the Big Men!
:hat:ScottyJ:hat:
-
I just wanna see HBK throw a hurricanrana and a top rope elbow and a sweet chin music on HHH-1-2-3 and my Summerslam is complete.
-
HBK did hurricanranas? HHH will win IMO, they won\'t let HBK just win like that..
-
HBK did every move and he did em better than 90% of the wrestlers out there.
-
He didn\'t do gorilla presses for sure. :p
-
HBK is one of the greatest of all time. If you never saw him wrestle you missed out big time. I recommend you go back and rent some old PPV\'s with him, it\'s really worth it :)
-
Shawn Michael\'s was a great athlete for sure. He also has paid a high price for this physically.
-
After 25 years in that business you\'re lucky to walk.
-
look at Stu Hart
-
Isn\'t he dead? Or was that Bret\'s mom who passed?
-
My predictions are that The Rock and Shawn Michaels are gonna get their asses beat hard.;)

Yeah, and HHH will get loads of heat from the fans now he is the bad guy. I expect Shawn Michaels to bleed in this match.
-
I only care about Kane\'s return...can\'t be soon enough... :D
Rey Mysterio and Kurt Angle is gonna be a good match. I dunno about Rock vs. Brock, cuz i just know that Rock is gonna win, and i\'m so sick of that. :S
-
I think The Rock is gonna lose \'cause he has to leave to make another movie.
-
I can\'t stand the Rock he\'s so annoying now. Every show you see him now that he\'s champion. I was glad when he was only on Smackdown so I\'d only have to put up with his big ego for one night but now he\'s all over the place. Brock better destroy him so he can go make more movies or something.
-
Anybody seen the promos for Sumemrslam? The one where this chick is rattling off the match-ups. She says some stuff like this:
Shawn Michaels, the heartbreak kid
HHH, the game
Kurt Angle, olympic gold medalist
Rey Mysterio, 619
WTF? I guess a number probably slang for some Mexican drink/crime is supposed to be == gold medal?
-
it\'s the San Diego area code, and the name of one of his moves.
I too have noticed that it didn\'t really fit, it\'s not like it\'s his nickname.

I can\'t wait until he comes back either. I\'ve been a fan since he first showed up at what Bad Blood??? I know it was the first HIAC match between Undertaker and Shawn Michaels. Even when Kane was a heel I don\'t know he was cool. I like how his character was indistrucable at first, then they kind of broke that. I think the WWE said that Kane will have yet another new gimick. Well last time I read about his return he was going to return in 4 weeks which has been I think 4 weeks or more.
-
what kind of gimick could he have? I mean he\'s a seven foot crispy critter, their\'s not much to work with.

I know what you mean I can\'t wait for the big red retard to return.;)
-
Anyone remember the Kane vs. Mankind ppv match? That was tight, Mankind was OWNED!
-
Smackdown\'s main event tonight was great. Benoit knocked the crap outta Edge not once but twice. I hope Bobby-H-to-the-izzo saw it.
-
I caught the last half of Smackdown cuz I was watching a godawful anime. Anywayz I hope the rock gets beatdown by Brock. And Batista finally left DVon but that was comming anywayz.
-
Well, I have some awful news to report. Everyone\'s favorite wrestler, one of the most entertaining and lovable wrestlers is no longer with the WWE...X-Pac. *sniff* Where does the WWE go from here? First Austin now X-Pac. The WWE is truly dying now. I never thought it would come to this but alas it happened. :(

No offense but X-Pac sux. He never really won a big match and was annoying. He wasn\'t too bad with DX but well he just plained sucked.
Now back to Kane and stuff...
Can anybody believe that Isaac Yankem D.D.S. or the Diesal Imposter was "Kane"? And whoever thought that a man named Glen Jacobs could be so evil?(https://psx5central.com/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.animeonline.net%2Fforums%2Fimages%2Fclassicsmilies%2Fdevil.gif&hash=65912d8902201fcf0ae4db13d8e4a03681f14918)
-
Well, everybody knows Kane doesn\'t really have a burnt face.
BTW, I thought he was gonna get a new costume?
