Well, for all I knew, you could have just been posting that to get a reaction after the "lost smile" posts. So, I'm glad you explained your actual reasons behind saying it. No doubt Vince was the mastermind behind it, but "he was doing what he was told" is a bit of a stretch, I think. I doubt Vince had to twist his arm. I didn't say "lives", I said "careers." Big difference. It's not a "huge" list, per se, but anyway: Shane Douglas (and a big ECW career hardly compares to that of one in the WWE) Bam Bam Bigelow was promised a ME push after jobbing to LT, and never got it due to Clique conflict Refused to job the title to Vader on two occasions, ruining any last chances to rebuild him after he was run out of WCW by Hogan & company Refused a program with Owen Hart after Montreal, Owen was promptly buried by HHH and never left the midcard afterwards Not to mention that everyone he's worked with not named HHH or Kurt Angle since his return has mysteriously descended into midcard hell after the feuds end.

Pacers over the Magic 90-78. JO had 19/7 starting at C, and Croshere scored 16 filling in for Foster. Artest had a bad shooting night, but finished with 16 as well.

Needs more Sid.

That's ironic of you to say, since most Pats fans at this board celebrated more over beating the Colts last year than they did when they won the SB.

I glanced at the main page and I thought it said "Carlito quits the WWE" after you posted.

Is anyone else watching this segment with Scot Pollard? Great stuff.

OK, it went to more OT's.

Since I'm sure I'll be raked over the coals for saying this, let me explain my side. First off, I'm a huge Bret mark, and despise Shawn Michaels, but I like to think that it doesn't stop me from looking at this objectively. On the other hand, I don't think I've ever seen an HBK mark look at this from an unbiased POV, it's always "refusing to lose in your home country is ridiculous" (naturally, ignoring that Shawn had refused to job to anyone, anywhere, period,) or "Bret takes himself too seriously, whining because he lost in a worked sport" or some other such nonsense. Bret was absolutely not right for refusing to job. There are very few situations where it's right to refuse a job, IMO (the Austin/TT situation being one exception), and if I was Bret in that situation, I probably would have ended up going through with the job. That's not to say I wouldn't have tried to find another way to job it, but I wouldn't have walked away without dropping the belt, which would have happened had he not dropped it in Montreal. But at the same time, this one isolated situation hardly warrants what Vince and company did to him, and hardly compares to all the careers that have been wrecked by Shawn and his chip off the ol' block, Hunter.

Unless it goes to more OT's, I'd say you're safe.

He's an HBK mark, dude. Just ignore him.

Why can't people just wear their white jerseys at home, like it's always been.

Also, Van Exel is looking pretty chubby.

Boykins is trying to do everything by himself out there, or the Nuggets could have this game in the bag already.

If you put it that way, then I agree. There are people, though, who have categorized Angle with those guys politic-wise because of that isolated incident.

You mean you were only going to use it if the majority agreed with you?

After reading some of the Taboo Tuesday results, I'd like to change my vote to Shelton Benjamin. Seriously, MATT FUCKING STRIKER???

Oh. Those games aren't until tommorrow.

It's TNT.

What do you expect, when I have to carry your ass in the ME slot.

Move this to GCF plz kthxbye

This should go after the promo I posted earlier...not necessarily in the ME slot, but close to the end. [i]Punishment[/i] by Biohazard hits and Team Heyross walks through the curtains, flanked by their manager Rick Heyross. BUFFER [i]The following tag team contest is scheduled for one fall, with the winners to receive an OAOAST World Tag Team title shot on next week's show! Introducing the first team, accompanied by their manager, Rick Heyross! At a total combined weight of 480 pounds, here are two of the greatest amateurs in the world, and members of the newly formed STEVENS/HEYROSS INCORPORATION...CHARLIE MOSS, QUENTIN BENJAMIN, TEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAM HEYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRROSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS S!!!!![/i] COLE As Team Heyross makes its way to the ring, you heard Michael Buffer, the winner of this tag match will receive a World Tag Team title match next week! COACH And wouldn't that be something for Team Heyross. This is their second match here in the OAOAST...next week, they could be holding the richest tag team prize in our sport, just three matches into their careers with the company! Both members of Team Heyross jump over the top rope into the ring simultaneously and begin warming up, as [i]God of Thunder[/i] hits and Thunderkid and Reject come through the curtains, with noticeable cheers mixed in with the usual boos. BUFFER [i]And their opponents...they weigh in at a combined weight of 475 pounds...first, hailing from Green Bay, Wisconsin, here is a former OAOAST North American champion, and one of the most well-rounded superstars in the business today...THUNDERKIIIIIIIIIIIID!!!!! His tag team partner hails from New York City, and is a former OAOAST X champion. One of the best high-fliers in the world...RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEJECT!!!!![/i] COLE Thunderkid and Reject getting a nice reception from *some* of these fans here, I guess the good guys by default in this match in their minds. COACH But you know as well as I do, Cole, they'd trade in every one of these cheers for another crack at Zack and Leon! COLE Oh, no doubt about that. Team Heyross pounces TK & Reject as they slide into the ring! *DING DING DING* Team Heyross starts trading blows, a strategy which is quickly turned around on them as TK fires off rights on Benjamin and sends him into a corner, while Reject does the same to Moss! Reject backs up and charges Moss, who catches him with an elbow, sending him to the mat next to the ropes. Moss then drops down and locks hands with Reject, who uses his feet to push Moss up, right into a crotch-first position on the top rope! Reject then runs to the ropes, and sends Moss off and to the outside with a spinning heel kick! COLE Moss to the floor, and Team Heyross in trouble early here against their more experienced opposition! TK hits a big overhead belly-to-belly on Benjamin, then he and Reject send him out to the floor with his partner, courtesy of a double clothesline! Reject climbs the top rope as TK goes to the apron. COACH Could be a Rocket Launcher coming here to the outside, Cole! And indeed, TK meets Reject at the corner and presses him off onto Team Heyross! TK then climbs into the ring and scales the top himself...and comes off with a SHOOTING STAR PRESS into the crowd of wrestlers!!! COACH OH MY GOD!!! COLE That's 250 pounds flying through the air, in a Shooting Star Press from the inside out, Coach! COACH Only in the OAOAST! Crowd starts a brief "HOLY SHIT" chant as TK slowly makes it to his feet and tosses Moss into the ring. TK hits Moss with an inverted Falcon Arrow! Cover... 1............. 2............................ Kickout! COLE First cover of the match, and a two-count for TK on Charlie Moss. TK quickly tags in Reject, then applies a Hangman's hold on Moss. Reject measures Moss, and hits a STIFF buzzsaw kick to the midsection as the crowd groans in pain! COLE WOW!!! COACH Man, WHAT impact on that kick by Reject, and who knows, Moss could have broken ribs here! Moss rolls around on the mat clutching his midsection, then Reject straightens him out and drops a snap legdrop! Reject covers... 1............... 2.......................... Kickout by Moss! Reject gives Moss a gutwrench suplex, then tags in TK, who holds Moss back for a savate kick before Reject exits the ring. COACH Quick tags between TK & Reject, and Charlie's gotta be feeling like Kate Moss right about now! He needs to make a tag! TK hits a backbreaker on Moss, then applies the knees to the back and rolls Moss over in a bow-and-arrow hold! COLE Submission hold applied! COACH And if there is in fact something wrong with Moss's ribs after those kicks, this obviously can't be good for them! The referee checks Moss, but he's too close to the ropes, and is able to grab one with his hand. TK holds on for a four-count, then releases. He then picks Moss up and drops him with a back suplex, and tags Reject again. TK grabs the arms and legs of Moss and lifts him in a pretzel hold, as Reject kicks him in the head! TK drops Moss to the mat after another four-count. Reject then runs to the ropes, only to have Benjamin pull them down and send him crashing to the floor! COLE And look at this! Referee is trying to get TK out of there, and he inadvertently caused his partner to get into trouble! COACH Smart move by Quentin to pull that top rope down! Heyross lays in some kicks on the floor, and is almost caught by the official, who sends him back to his corner. Reject attempts to slide back into the ring, but is stomped by Benjamin, who was tagged in in the confusion. Reject falls back to the floor, then Heyross, using every athletic element in his fat little body, tosses Reject into the steps!!! COLE HEY!!! The referee saw that one! And in fact he did, because he jumps out of the ring and promptly ejects Heyross from ringside! The crowd pops HUGE, and Heyross and his clients go ballistic. COACH Wait a minute, the referee can't do this! COLE What are you talking about, he just did! COACH No way! Rick Heyross has a manager's license, he has every right to be down at ringside! COLE However, he has NO right putting his hands on any of the opposing superstars! Moss gets off the apron still holding his midsection slightly and rolls Reject back into the ring. Once in, he's met with a snap suplex! Benjamin covers... 1............. 2......................... Kickout! COLE Rick Heyross has been ejected from ringside, but he was out there long enough to make a difference in this match, as now it's his guys with the advantage. Benjamin whips Reject into the ropes, and hits a Frankensteiner! He then tags in Moss, who picks him up and hits a trapped-arm belly-to-belly suplex! Moss covers... 1.................. 2.............................. Reject kicks out again! Moss picks up Reject, and drops him throat-first on the ropes! He then tags Benjamin, who runs to the far side as Moss lifts Reject in the air, and leaps over the shoulders of Moss onto the back of Reject! COACH Nice double-team move by Team Heyross there! Benjamin chokes Reject on the ropes by pushing his knee into the back of his head! The referee counts, and Benjamin releases at four. Moss jumps off the apron and does some more choking as the referee restrains Benjamin. This draws TK into the ring, and the official meets him as Moss slides into the ring, and he and Benjamin quickly hit a DOUBLE GOOZLE on Reject! Benjamin covers, as TK gets out and the referee counts... 1.............. 2............................. But Reject kicks out yet again! COLE Despite all the double-teaming, Reject still refuses to stay down for a three-count! Moss lifts Reject into a vertical suplex, and hangs...then drops down! Moss then ascends the top rope, and comes off...right onto the raised boot of Reject! COLE Now is Reject's chance to make a tag! COACH But Moss landed too close to his corner! Moss is easily able to tag Benjamin in time for him to stop a tag attempt with a running elbowdrop to the back! Benjamin then turns and delivers a cheap shot to TK, drawing him into the ring! The referee restrains TK as Moss comes back in, and gives Reject a slingshot, right into a Benjamin superkick! COACH More great teamwork as the referee is busy with TK on the other side! Benjamin covers... 1............... 2............................ ANOTHER kickout! Moss immediately comes back into the ring, and both he and Benjamin put top wristlocks on Reject, who is on his knees. Reject, however, gets a burst of adrenaline, and flips over, holding onto the arms and pulling off armdrags on both members of Team Heyross! Reject struggles over to his corner, but Benjamin grabs a foot. As the referee tries to restrain Moss, Reject leaps and TAGS TK!!! COLE There's the tag! COACH But it was behind the ref's back, get him out of there! And the referee does just that, much to the dismay of the crowd. Benjamin sets up Reject for the ORANGE CRUSH~!!!, but Reject slips behind the back, and Benjamin turns around right into a high roundhouse kick! Moss quickly hops back into the ring, but Reject rolls over and 4 REAL TAGS TK~!!! COLE THERE's the tag, the referee saw that one! Moss tries to beg off, but TK scores with a foot to the midsection, then whips him into the ropes, and gives him a BIG backdrop! Clothesline for Benjamin! Clothesline for Moss! TK gives Benjamin an overhead belly-to-belly, and covers... 1................ 2.............................. Moss saves! Moss and Benjamin pound on TK, then whip him to the ropes, but TK ducks a double clothesline and takes both men down with a flying shoulderblock! TK then sets Benjamin on the top rope and follows him up. TK pounds away, then Moss gets underneath TK, setting him on his shoulders! COLE Uh-oh, Team Heyross could be setting up the big finish right here! However, Reject runs into the ring and yanks TK's arm backwards, causing TK to flip backwards off of Moss's shoulders. TK lands on his feet (!), then picks up Moss on *his* shoulders. Reject then quickly runs over and dropkicks Benjamin, causing him to fall from the top to the floor! COACH Quentin took a nasty spill to the outside... Moss twists around and attempts a hurricanrana, but TK hangs onto the legs tight to block, then lifts him back up with assistance from Reject...for the CATEGORY SIX~!!!!!11111 COLE CATEGORY SIX~!!!!!11111 THEY HIT IT!!! TK covers, but the referee is distracted by Rick Heyross, who has come back to ringside! Behind the referee's back, the remaining S.H.I. members run to ringside, including Brock Ausstin, who delivers an F-STUNNER-5~!!!!!11111 to TK!!! COLE Wait a minute, it's the damn S.H.I.! Brock Ausstin interfering in the match with an F-STUNNER-5 to TK! Stevens pulls Reject from the ring, and delivers a DIAMOND CUTTER on the floor!!! COACH And the champ with a Diamond Cutter to Reject on the outside! COLE NO, not this way! Benjamin slides back in and covers TK... 1................. 2......................................... 3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *DING DING DING* COLE DAMN IT!!! Team Heyross steals one thanks to the S.H.I.! BUFFER [i]The winners of the match...TEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAM HEYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!![/i] The S.H.I. continues its assault... COACH Hold on, we're being told to cut to the back... The crowd goes CRAZY as they see Alfdogg, with a black eye his forehead bandaged, burst through the doors with baseball bat in hand! COACH Oh my GOD. Alf powerwalks down the hall with a determined look on his face, pounding equipment with his bat, as several wrestlers, Christian Wright and the New New Midnight Express among them, clear the path for him with wide-eyed, worried looks on their faces. Alf doesn't acknowledge any of his co-workers as he continues his walk, until newly crowned World champion Stephen Joseph emerges from his dressing room to check out the commotion. Alf stops for a brief staredown with the champ, looking at the belt on his shoulder and back up in his eyes, then continues his walk with no words being spoken from either side. Alf finally emerges through the curtain as the crowd hits a fever pitch, and jogs to the ring, delivering a MASSIVE swing to the gut of Jumbo! COLE ALFDOGG IS HERE! And the S.H.I. better head for the hills! Alf slides into the ring, driving the top of the bat into the head of Charlie Moss, as the rest of the S.H.I. high-tails it to the front of the aisleway! Alf then starts to choke Moss out with the bat, but Quentin Benjamin drags his partner from the ring as Alf stares them down. Alf then sees TK & Reject headed towards the aisleway, and hops out of the ring, and the three give chase to the S.H.I., who hightail it for a waiting limo backstage! Alf busts out the back of the windshield with the bat as the car's driving off, and TK tosses a trash can at it. Alf finally speaks, to Reject, after spotting Coach backstage having left the booth. ALF Ask him where Calvin his. Reject and Alf approach Coach. REJECT Where's Calvin? Is he in his office? COACH I don't know where Calvin is, I... Suddenly, Alf jams the bat handle into the midsection of Coach! Coach drops to his knees, and Alf grabs him around the throat. ALF You little shit, don't lie to us. Where's CALVIN? COACH He...he left for the night! He's not here, I promise! Alf walks over to Calvin's office, and kicks the door in, and in fact, Calvin is not inside. Alf walks around in a circle for a minute, before driving the bat into Calvin's desk! Alf destroys the office of the HeldDOWN General Manager with the baseball bat, then turns to the cameraman. ALF You REALLY fucked up this time, Szechstein. You think I'm stupid, don't you? You think I don't know that you orchestrated this entire fucking thing to get that belt off of me? HUH? Well, congratulations, you did it. And in the process, you've managed to REALLY piss me off. So, at November Reign, I'm going to do something I thought I'd NEVER have to do again. So you'll just have to show up next week and find out what that is. World Without End may have been last night...but a whole new world...a world of HELL, Calvin, has just begun for you. Alf gives a cold stare into the camera, and walks away.

What did Angle do to deserve to be lumped in with those guys? And I'm sorry, but talking his way into that one clean win over Eddie is NOT a vaild reason.

Clearly it's Tennessee at Cleveland.

You guys are calling Vader fat like it's some huge newsflash or something. Sure, he's fatter now than he was in his prime, but he's ALWAYS BEEN FAT.
