Angle-plex

For the record I saw quite a few people walk out on "Death Proof". I don't know if it was because the whole thing was too long or because of the weak talking scenes or what. I love Russell's performance the more I think of it but I hate the direction QT went with his character.

Planet Terror was good, as were the trailers. The first part of Death Proof was awesome, but the rest was almost unwatchable. Kurt Russell is the man but all of the girl characters were unlikeable.

Good episode. The show definetly benefits from the extra 10 minutes. Michael's woman suit joke seemed really forced to me though. They don't seem to have the Michael character down as they did in season 2, although the stuff with Jan was funny. The guy playing Kevin has horrible line delivery this season, after being one of my favorites in season 2 ("look out, it's Roy" sounds like something Ross would say in Friends). Everything else worked though and Daryl is quickly becoming one of my favorites. Hopefully he'll get a bigger role now that Roy is gone.

You can't compare putting a camera in a player's helmet in football and putting a camera in Vince's face. Although maybe is a McMahon only trait since Hunter's baby has this ability as well. A ref camera would actually be less offensive to me as it would just be a new look on the action that you don't have to suspend disbelief for.

"Are y'all wrestling fans like me?" – Timbaland......haha no they all hate that shit. Definetly the highlight of the show tonight.

Any match that begins with a guy's leg getting worked on for 10 minutes and then it's forgotten about for the rest isn't a "great match". Decent build to the finish but it was the same shit as last year. Cena as Diesel.....hopefully we'll get an awesome tweener Cena that doesn't give a shit about anything. Tweener Diesel was the man.

In retrospect I would say Cena/Taker with Cena ending the streak was the way to go. Two title matches, Benoit/MVP (never saw MVP before, but liked him tonight) and MINB were good, but everything else was a borefest, and the entire show was unmemorable. Nothing special happened the entire show and this just felt like a slightly better remake of WM 22.

Time for minorities to fight for the rich white guys.

New Trailer With Venom I'm not really looking foward to this one. Wasn't a big fan of the first two and this one seems like it will have WAY too much crammed in it.

A trillion dollar bill.

Pontiac Region 1 12 3 2 Atlantic City Region 1437 Toronto Region 1 13 6 2 New York City Region 1 5 6 7 Houston Region 1 4 6 7 Seattle Region 8 12 6 2 Chicago Region 1 5 6 7 Anaheim Region 1 5 3 2

Didn't count WM 4's title tourny (because it was Savage's night, IMO), but maybe I should have. Still, Hogan was barely ever on TV this period, while we get Hunter every week. And Hogan actually drew boatloads, so it was deserved.

This is the first Wrestlemania since Wrestlemania X-7(in 2001!) that Triple H has NOT been in a world title match, and the first time ever that RAW's main event did not include Triple H. ....and THAT is the reason why I am somewhat looking foward to this Wrestlemania. Seriously, not even Hogan, the biggest draw in the ever, had a streak like that.

Tomko pinned Joe? Clearly the most awesome moment in TNA history. I will sleep well tonight knowing this has occured.

The ending with Pam/Michael was so awesome it almost makes me forgive the show for being subpar this season.

But Taker and Batista attacking them after the match doesn't make me think "Damn, I have to watch this match.". The match as it stands now is just 4 guys fighting each other for no reason and nobody to cheer for.

Undertaker/Batista attacking after the match makes no sense. Why would two faces do that?

Why am I rooting for Angle to get revenge over Christian's group when he was just breaking Joe's girlfriend's ankle last month? The tension in Xtian's group I don't mind because Steiner's character is an asshole and it stays true to that...but why would he join Christian's group in the first place and why does he hate Angle? Steiner should be the tweener who is fucking over face Joe's run after after Xtian's title. They need to keep it simple. Less is more most of the time, which they don't seem to get at all. This show has just turned into a bunch of guys pretending to fight each other.

Except most people last more than 15 seconds. Maybe they shouldn't be. If they're hell-bent on pushing Kahli, who can't wrestle a lick, the matches should be as short as possible, to get over the fact that he is unstoppable while not exposing how shitty his wrestling is. If Carlito lasts 10 minutes against Kahli....what does that say about Kahli? It takes a guy THAT big and THAT strong ten minutes to beat a much shorter guy that has been booked as an average wrestler since he debuted. That would make both guys look like garbage.

Carlito jobbing to Kahli is meaningless. Kahli is booked as an unstoppable monster that nobody can beat. Carlito just looks like everyone else by being destroyed by him.

They really have to make faces and heels. Every character in the company is an asshole. It's realistic, but doesn't work when the product is supposed to be a medium for story telling. There is something wrong with the company when the only exciting thing on the show is a table spot.

Anyone know anything about why it hasn't been released and what is allegedly on the video? I tried doing a google search after seeing the trailer but didn't find much. Maybe HTQ or someone would know a little more about it.

Oh..my..god What the BAG is that? One of the worst wrestling related videos I've ever seen.

For the main events I would probably do this: WWE Title vs World Title Cena def Batista Winner vs Champion later in the night Undertaker def Shawn Michaels ECW Title CM Punk def Lashley Undisputed Title John Cena def Undertaker - I have always been against ending the streak....until this year. It would make WM 23 an historic event, and pay homage to Andre/Hogan. Then just add some gimmick matches (TLC, MitB), a tag title battle royal, Hogan somewhere, Austin somewhere, Rock somewhere (hopefully, prob not). And Taker should dawn the old gray gloves outfit for the night just cuz.

Undertaker shows up on RAW to announce he is going after Smackdown's champion? Boorring. Makes him look like a chump.
