Nash's interview was gold. Can't wait for part two.

Wasn't he involed in the MTV wrestling thing? If so he'd be in the same position of Justin Credible coming to ECW. I dunno if Waltman was involved though.

Revolutionary concepts like the DS's touch pad. The DS has sold like a kazillion units. I'm sure someone smarter than I can pull numbers. Get the Japan numbers, too. whoopty flippy do! The kiddies had to get a new system to play Pokemon....DS Lite Black I choose you! Ok, there was a new Pokemon game. Do you see the other top sellers? Brain Training, Brain Training 2, Brain Training English... non gamers and older people are eating the DS straigh UP over there. If you think that's all cause of a Pokemon title, that's not even one in the main RPG series, you're delusional.

This is just an example of the DS ownage in Japan, taken from the week 3/20-3/26 Software: 01. PS2 - Final Fantasy XII (Square-Enix): 237,678 (2,001,944) 02.

"It's believed wrestlers under contract but not being used would be sent to ECW, as well as talent that isn't getting over, with the idea Heyman can repackage them and get them over." Here's hoping Doug Basham is sent to ECW.

The only passable JBL/Taker match I recall was from the Smackdown! after the Bash.

Did you watch this episode of Impact? I've been enjoying TNA a lot more since the move to Thursday. I usually Tivo it every week and in the past at points it's felt like a chore to get through the whole episodes, but I've found myself looking forward to Impact much more now. The format change is doing wonders so far.

I thought that was a really solid Impact. I hope they keep up with this format.

http://revolution.nintendo.com/ I dunno, it could work I guess. I don't see what's wrong with Revolution.

The 2 AM replay of AM RAW is matching TNA numbers... well, I imagine it's when the drunks are coming in from a night of partying. Sounds like ECW would fit nicely there.

They did it to reflect the WWE style of wrestling; i.e everyone must wrestle the same style.

Hahaha, I love the Umaga gimmick even more.

No way Triple H let's that happen. RVD would be throwing down the HHH belt.

Yea it's too bad, I enjoyed his TNA run.

Wouldn't even crack a top 50 list of Shawn's? You're over-exagerating.

SNME is a nice bonus.

This guy looks familiar. Was he in an Angle Invitational in England last year or something?

Good thing Triple H is teaching everyone how to be a good heel.

Gunner Scott (Brent Albright from OVW) defeated Gregory Helms at a Smackdown house show in Stuttgart, Germany earlier today in a NON-title match. Helms had recently returned to action after a nose injury. This is a correction of an earlier report that it was a title change.

When was the promo he had with Edge?

Why do people keep referencing Smackdown as the weaker brand in this thread? It's been better then RAW for months now. I realize RAW has the stronger name value and what not, but the Smackdown! brand is leaps and bounds ahead of RAW for the time being.

This sucks, I really enjoyed Bob's run with Haas last year. Hopefully he gets well.

No but the Champions have always been one and two from what I remember regardless of if they wrestled that week or not. edit: Never mind. Eddy was #1 when he died and Kane was #2 and #1 leading up to the Elimination Chamber.

Yea I was thinking something along the lines of how RAW used to always tape at the Manhattan center. Also I could see them trying to position this against TNA wherever their time slot happens to be; if they can get USA on board for it.

Interesting to say the least.
