  3. This is without doubt the strangest bit of news I've heard all year and quite frankly underlines the point that Wrestling is a pretty shitty business to get into.

     

    Well it isn't wrestling that would drive someone to do this.

    Maybe I'm wrong to presume so, but Chris Benoit's life as a wrestler led him to this ending.

     

    This happens more often than not in all walks of life. See MrRant's post right below yours.

     

    While thats true, I'm saying in this case the Steroids, concussions and what can't be a healthy lifestyle would have contributed heavily to Chris Benoit's demise. Familicide is what happened not the reason.


  4. Being a draw and being the company draw are different. At a time when the WWE is feeling pressure from UFC and the PPV buys are not great, it is Cena who is held accountable. If Cena was able to draw well, why have Undertaker and HBK been catapulted to the Main Events when they had been doing the veteran roles for the last 2 years? Perhaps because the WWE do not have the confidence in what they are pushing as the new crop to succeed.

     

    I can't argue with Cena's merchandise money but again I doubt it its hitting peak Rocky/DX level, let alone Hogan/Austin levels.


  5. Wrestlemania thoughts...

     

    Neither of the two Championship Main Events strike me as Wrestlemania main events. Cena-Michaels has had the better build but Cena just isn't who the WWE think he is, and while Michaels is still capable of bringing it he doesn't look the part anymore. Was it me or was Undertaker's entrance on RAW highly subdued. And Batista has lost all of his cool factor that got him over against Triple H in the first place.

    How is he not who they think he is?

     

    He's a draw. He's over. "Looking the Part"? Of course he does. Muscular, charismatic, good looking guy who can sell a money promo, that never worked before. What's with "the look"? What look is Shawn supposed to have? He's a 6' bump machine that has years of wear and tear on his body and is at the end of the line. That's the whole point to him and this storyline. That he should be done but he has one final chance at the big stage. He's not supposed to be the teenbopper 30 year old he was a decade ago. These matches are of course WM main events. 4 top drawing names in a big environment, all of which usually come up major in those situations? Yes, they are main events.

     

    What I'm saying is that just because Cena is booed/cheered regularly doesn't mean he's the draw the WWE think he is. Meaning the WWE think he is someone to build the company around. As for Michaels, I say he doesn't have the look because when I look at the guy it's like I see someone who is still better than most others only because he's always been good not because he deserves it. Back when Rocky, HHH, Jericho, Benoit and Angle stepped up in 2000 if you'd dropped Michaels in as a Main Eventer he'd look out of place. He only looks the part now becuase the WWE is trying to sell me Cena, Batista, Orton, Lashley, Kennedy and Edge. All are capable at what they do but are ultimately poor excuses for top level draws.

  8. Not only did the U.S. get f'ed out of a seeding...but we get put in a pool with a bunch of shit teams, so we can't possibly face them in the first round.

     

    That's pretty lame. :(

     

    No offence but the USA even being considered for a seeding is a compliment.

     

    England's effective third team put you guys away fairly easily at the start of the summer so...


  9. DING DING DING, we have a winner.

     

    Yeah, I started swapping between all the monitors and graphics cards in the house, and the blue tint only reared its ugly aqua blue face when my monitor was plugged in. The pins don't actually appear damaged but the problem is my monitor. I've been looking to upgrade anyway so god has shown me the light or blue light as it wer, and I HAVE BEEN SET FREE....


  10. ...Earlier today my monitor developed a blue tint. So anything white now appears a weird aqua blue.

     

    All I could find on the net was to reinstall drivers for the monitor and graphics card, which I did, and it did nothing.

     

    The blueness flickers and goes away for a short time before returning.

     

    Its just flickered twice during me typing this.

     

    Anyone got any ideas?
