Not to mention the possibility of Russo-rific booking.

I don't think so. Lawler's hyper-drooling over anything female is clearly compensation for homosexual panic. I hope they carry through with the "classy diva" thing. I am one of the few people on the planet that likes women's wrestling and thinks they could make something out of it. Of course, we are probably working with the WWE definition of "class."

Is it just me, or does that look more like Sable on extra roids with facepaint?

That's gratitude.

Don't forget "We'll also hire your widow on to do an angle with one of our half-assed heels that will totally piss all over your name."

You know what the real problem with ending the brand split is? They never fully tried a brand splt to begin with.

Yep, I miss her too. They had a pretty respectable angle going for the 30 seconds that Victoria was her protege. *Goes back to playing Rumble Roses XX

Things like this make me strongly question the people who say that HHH will make a good booker when and if he takes over WWE once Vince is gone. When has HHH showed booking genius?

This is a professional work environment. Employees should be expected to carry themselves with class, dignity and professionalism at all times. Now pardon us while we finish writing the angle about a Donald Trumph and Rose O'Donnell impersonator who hump the corpse of a cheerleader and then get married to one of the diva's much older fathers, and then mock our audiences for not liking it.

It will be exactly what you expect out of WWE's lousy booking?

It's true. I used to get mad when people would go on about how ugly Jazz was. It made me wonder if everybody on this board was dating a supermodel or something. If she's not your cup of tea fine, but there is nothing wrong with her, looks wise.

Hogan/Khali does have huge trainwreck appeal. Maybe they could make it a triple threat with the Ultimate Warrior for maximum suckitude.

Or in the ring.

I'm more concerned with poor Kevin. Wrestling in the WWE is one step above Celebrity Boxing on FOX. He still has a little steam left to not be a total sideshow. I think the two kinda deserve each other at this point. After all, they've both had pure gold handed to them and managed to piss it at every turn, almost as if they didn't want it to begin with. I think they should put him in a feud with HHH. Have HHH come out and mock Federline from marrying someone for their money and standing. Just sayin'.

I agree completely. Test plays the dick heel real well, I think he has fun doing it. I went to one of the ECW house shows a couple months back and Test was one of the main highlights. Before the show even started, waiting outside for the doors to open, there were very few people around and the wrestlers had to drive by the entrance, so all these wrestlers were stopping to sign where most guys drive in. All these people were camped out in front of the driveway when this truck comes flying up slamming on the horn. It was Test with Kelly, he rolls down the window and shouts "Outta the way, ya marks!" It was really funny. After he parked, all people were calling him over and he made some smarmy comment instead of coming over. You could tell he wasn't completely serious, but he was having fun being in character. Then, during the show, when all there were some Test is Gay or something chants, and he grabs the mic and starts saying how all these people can say that because while they are buying the Diva merchandise, he's banging them. It was pretty classic. And it was Test. I say let him run as the dick heel and it could lead to some fun stuff happening. I always thought they totally missed the boat when Test was with Stacy Keibler. They were trying to push him as a guy with a ditzy girlfriend. What they should have done is pushed him as a total asshole who had the hot babe. Everybody knows a sweet, beautiful girl who is dating a total loser, and wonders what the fuck she sees in him. Just have Test flaunt that he had Stacy and show him being a miserable prick to her, and he would have made a great heel.

Finally, DX finds someone they'll actually job for.

I got there a few months ago. I don't even care enough to read the results just for bitching, like I did for a few years. It sucks. I want to care, but it's just not happening. Seconded. Even making fun of the BS on screen has lots its appeal. Has anyone noticed that HHH's limelight-hogging and making other wrestlers look like useless losers has reached new heights, but we aren't getting nearly the level of complaining that we used to get? I think a lot of people are just burnt out, feel things aren't going change, and are just moving on. I haven't even put a new mocking picture in my sig in a while.

If HHH or the Undertaker do a clean job to Federline, I will BUY EVERY PPV AND ALL WWE MERCHANDISE FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE.

If Vince really wants to kill DX, he should have the NWO join them, not fight them. The politicking, injuries, and shoot comments should cause the backstage to meltdown in about five minutes.

If Jericho returns, he will be immediately fed to Cena or Orton, to build up their credability. And in the case of Orton, he will be immediately fed to one of the "real" stars, like Undertaker or HHH.

Hear that? That's the sound of Vince not learning a goddamn thing from the "camera in the cheerleaders' lockeroom" incident of the XFL.

In the long run, it could be better for business too. It might force Vince to provide a better work environment.

<Insert generic authority figure title> Ric Flair: Right here tonight... It's gonna be Bradshaw and Stone Cold... vs. the NWO! The following week... Flair: TONIGHT, in this very ring... We're gonna have Stone Cold and BRADSHAW....... vs. the NWO! The FOLLOWING week... Flair: Tonight, in the main event, it's gonna be.... the NWO..... vs. Bradshaw................... and STONE COLD! That was brutal. I remember one time that Ric Flair was playing the authority figure, and Austin got screwed out of a title shot. So Flair said, "I know you're disappointed Austin. I promise I'll make it up to you. Tonight you and Bradshaw will take on the NWO..." And I remember thinking, "that makes up for a title shot?"

Here are some things that are totally off limits for Vince: -comprehensive health coverage for all employees -unionization -acting like a professional in all departments, not just the ones that are convenient -standing up to Hulk Hogan -the correct way to push Randy Orton -not walking like a sodomized mallard -keeping around anyone who says "You know what Vince, that's a fucking stupid idea"

The real issue here is not Orton, but the organization behind him that allows him to get away with this shit. If Orton is a dickhead, it's not like they're discouraging him in any meaningful way. And the penalty for wellness policy violation is now such that it neither protects the wrestler or the company. It just protects the "storylines." Isn't good to know that if somebody in the epic DX vs. McMahon feud fell off the wagon, the storyline would be safe?
