Well if Jericho goes I hope other mis-used talent follows suit, like RVD, Christian, Booker T, Benoit, Hurricane, and Tajiri then TNA could get rid of it's more useless talents and hire those guys. But I'm just dreaming.Well if Jericho goes I hope other mis-used talent follows suit, like RVD, Christian, Booker T, Benoit, Hurricane, and Tajiri then TNA could get rid of it's more useless talents and hire those guys.

If TNA could get a a decent TV run maybe not

I would think that TNA would need to get popular enough to be able to pay like the WWE does, or has, to attract many top talent.....

SOme may go because of their treatment, but many would stay...especially if they had already been to the top.....

- Frustration continues to grow backstage with regards to the WWE writing team. Whether it's referring to a "dark match" as a "lights-out match," not knowing about the Katie Vick storyline or asking about how wrestlers get the fake blood to continue pouring, the writers are perturbing wrestlers with their lack of pro wrestling knowledge.


I don't think anyone would want to know about the Katie Vick storyline

...Especially not Kane i would think. lol

There is an article on TV.com on Brock Lesnar's WWE return. It reads as follows:

"In his starting year in the WWE, Brock Lesner has made an impact. He's already a 3-Time WWE Champion and still the champion. Brock Lesnar was a part of Ohio Valley Wrestling before transferring over the the WWE. He got his rep by beating The Rock and Summerslam 2002 and becoming the youngest WWE champion of all time (next to The Rock). Brock Lesnar is 6'4, 295 pounds of raw power, peed, ...Continue." In addition to that, under "Upcoming Appearances" it says listed at the top "WWE Pay-Per View: SummerSlam 2005; Sunday 21 August, 2005."


It would be really cool if Brock interferes with the HBK vs Hogan match, because that would get so much heat

Brock Lesnar and the mighty F5
Talon
The F5 does look like it kills you grin2.gif

But not as much as some of the strong style German suplex's in the Smackdown games, and I refer specifically to the one were the suplex ends with the opponent landing on his hand after being thrown half way across the ring.

I know that German Suplex, I always give it to my CAW's because it just looks sick.

Mr. JBL, the wrestling god rolleyes.gif The above is wrestling!
AtticusBlueprint
Yeah and thats why I don't like the WWE "safe" style. It really holds alot of guys back and in my opinion is unessecary if you hire talented guys that know what they are doing. Steven Richards was injured twice, TWICE, by Chris Masters, it just shows that you can have a toned down style and still get injured if you hire jolly green giants. Also I heard that the WWE has banned top rope moves that involve rotations, thats just getting silly.
Talon
I don't mind safe as in no King's Road or to much Strong style as they can really mess up the guys. Look at King's Road style for example, those guys only wrestle once very few months the matches are that dangerous. However the WWE's safe style is nuts, its not avoiding toning down on dangerous moves, instead its just restricting everything barring clotheslines.
The WWE should learn that wrestling is a physical sport, and this mommy-coddling is being taken to far.
AtticusBlueprint
Yup, but I think the problem is the WWE is running the well dry on finishing moves. I mean does every big guy have to use the Big Boot as their finishing move or how many guys have used the Complete Shot in the past few years. I don't even know what Carlito's finishing move is, I don't even think he has one, beside a roll up with handfull of tights.

I take it you DL TNA off the net?

Well if anyone wants I could post a few matches from ROH or TNA(though I don't know if it's allowed or not)
Talon
I wouldn't mind seeing one, but that would take up a lot of server space tongue.gif
AtticusBlueprint
Ok, I'm not all that computer knoweglable but what if I post a link to were you can download the video would that take up server space
Subtemperate
A link to the website? No no indeed...

As long as its not illegal, there should be no problem..... p2p software for example does have matches to download, but we shouldn't advertise it innocent.gif
AtticusBlueprint
It's a link to yousendit and I don't know if its illegal or not unsure.gif
Subtemperate
Send it to Talon via PM then... just to be safe yes.gif
AtticusBlueprint
Alright, will do. Thanks for the help but I guess we should get back to wrestling....

At the SmackDown! taping this week, there was apparently no Christian shirts for sale in the entire building. A vendor at the show stated that WWE didn't think Christian shirts would be a good seller, even though she had been asked about them all night.


Of coarse, who would want Christian shirts in...well lets see where Smackdown was.......

Toronto, Canada huh.gif .... blink.gif

In reponse to Randy Savage's challenge, Hulk Hogan reminded the interviewers and listeners of the heavily-reported incident in TNA: "[He] told everybody for 3 years that he was going to kick my butt. I ran into him in Orlando, walked right up to him, offered to shake his hand - he wouldn't shake my hand, didn't want to go outside. He just sat in his chair and shook for 30 minutes scared to death."


Would people pay to see the "I want your pension" match?

Still working on my disertation, tongue.gif I'm trying to finish Chapter 5 tonight. I'm not really even on this site now, just refreshing every 15 mins.

But don't worry I'll get to it. thumbsup.gif It'll likely be good, since we're both not couch fans and like actual wrestling laugh.gif

Okay, finished Chapter 5, 4000 words long (1000 words more than I intended) of political cleavage ranting, that needed to be done.

I shall now depart for a time and watch this match. thumbsup.gif
AtticusBlueprint
Well hopefully the match doesn't disappoint, Samoa Joe is one of my fav "big men"
Talon
And I'm back

That match was great grin2.gif Indeed not Beniot vs Angle, but still fantasic, partically after the rubbish WWE has been tossing out lately. It was so weird hearing the fans shouting 'This is awesome' at points you know the WWE fans would be either silent or shouting 'Boring!' grin2.gif

And that finisher at the end, my god, it looked like it killed him laugh.gif That would never appear in the WWE's rediciously-'safe' style.

Thats for sharing Atticus thumbsup.gif

Yup, I love that move, it looks even better when he does it off the top rope, I'll try to find that match too. Most of my computer space goes to the tons of matches I've downloaded. AJ Styles is good at taking bumps, his major flaw is his long term selling and lack of mic skills but he is still young and I think he will work on that.

No problem, I'll try to find a good ROH match(which shouldn't be hard) but the problem with ROH their matches usually go a good 30-60 min so it might be longer to DL

Hulk Hogan vs. Shawn Michaels
“Hogan’s got so much size, but if HBK catches him with the boot, that’s the end of it. But I think Hogan has one more good match in him. Plus, he’s from my era.”

WWE Champion John Cena vs Chris Jericho
“Jericho has been there multiple times, but Cena is fresh and he wants this win bad. If the crowd has anything to do with it, I’ll have to go with Cena.”

World Heavyweight Champion Batista vs. JBL (No Holds Barred Match)
“That’s a tough one. It’s hard to think JBL will ever lose a match like this, but I’ll still go with Batista, he has the mindset he learned from Evolution and he’s just so gosh-darned powerful.”

Matt Hardy vs. Edge
“When you’re right, you’re a tough man to beat, and I think Matt Hardy is probably right in this matter.”

Randy Orton vs Undertaker
“I pick Randy in a heartbeat. He’s had a lot of time to think about and train for Undertaker. That WrestleMania 21 loss really set Randy back, but he’s ready now. Undertaker’s legend is incredible, but Randy is ready.

Kurt Angle vs. Eugene
“Angle all the way. I don’t think it’ll take him that long.”

Rey Mysterio vs. Eddie Guerrero (Ladder Match)
“I think the seventh time (against Mysterio) might be the charm, but look at what Rey’s fighting for. I’ll go with Rey.”

Chris Benoit vs. Orlando Jordan
“I like Benoit. I think Orlando Jordan is a pretty rugged SOB and has earned what he’s got. But Benoit is a wrestling machine and has been there before.”
cowboy bob orton's predictions on summerslam i pretty much agree with him
Moose-Of-Armageddon
Only one I disagree with there is HBK VS Hogan. Also, that Randy Orton prediction might be dodgy due to him being his dad.
