The Ghost of bps21

By that same token... Holly shouldn't be stiffing every newcomer that comes along just because he's tougher than they are. He deserved it...and he'll deserve another one before long.

Buffy didn't do as well on UPN as it did on WB... UPN would have to be worried that this could repeat itself...as Angel doesn't do Buffy numbers.

"I was thinking about that today. How much longer Angel has in general. If ratings are good, WB might pick them up again. If not, there goes my favorite show on TV." I wouldn't bet on WB picking it up again. After five years they have to increase the budget...something that they wouldn't do for Buffy, which along with 7th heaven, was their FLAGSHIP show. Angel isn't.

I thin it's real impressive that they had never been in the red before now. It doesn't matter, it's just one of those things. They better hope the PSP doesn't cut into their GBA profits though...

Who did they ruin? Either way, Kazarian has a heel turn in the offing...so losing to Daniels isn't going to matter in a couple weeks

Between this and the FBI finally taking down the threat that was Tommy Chong... I can sleep safe. ... Someone should turn him in for that Flair link

Pride Grand Prix bracketing to be announced today [email protected] Pride is expected to hold a press conference today to announce the official bracketing for the 11/9 Grand Prix finals at the Tokyo Dome. The four men to be bracketed are current middleweight champion Vanderlei Silva, Hidehiko Yoshida, UFC's Chuck Liddell and Quinton Jackson. According to Kami no puroresu Magazine, the bracketing will not be done by fan voting, as was the original plan (which would have resulted in Yoshida vs. Silva and Liddell vs. Jackson). Apparently the change was made due to charges of favoritism in those brackets. Instead, there will be a lottery where all four men will pull a number. The man who picks No. 1, then gets to pick his opponent. The magazine claimed that if Jackson picked No. 1, he would pick Silva, which is a long-awaited match-up.

The hell it is. Online gaming is awesome.

ON TOP OF THAT... It's apparent to everyone that the only thing TNA has been advertising in the last TWO MONTHS is Raven and his feud.

What are you talking about? 1. There was a run in to take Raven out (AS HE was winning the match, BTW) leaving it one on one for the second half of the match. 2. Jarrett jobbed to a baseball bat...THE EXACT SAME WAY HE WON THE TITLE. JArrett was the ONLY one of the three that didn't have the match won at some point. And he didn't kill Truth's career, and in fact (and you can ask Meltzer about the buyrates on this) Jarrett's defenses were always the highest bought shows because they made the title better.

Is someone trying to pin a bad rating with SHAWN MICHEALS WHO HAS NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER drawn a good rating on his opponent?

RAVEN WOULDN'T SIGN A CONTRACT BEFORE THE MATCH. THEY HAD NO CHOICE. YOU CAN'T PUT THE TITLE ON SOMEONE WITHOUT A CONTRACT.

Not only that but it cuts out the entire point of holding a show in Western New York. People from Soutern Ontario can get to downtown Buffalo in no time...they won't drive all the way to Rochester though...and that cuts out a big part of the "Starving wrestling fanbase"

I can play DVDs on my DVD player in the bedroom, DVD player in the living room, My PC, My laptop and then the PS2 and Xbox. I never even bought the DVD thing for the Xbox because it would never get used.

It's underrated because most people foolishly believe that Soul Calibur 2 is better...and it isn't even a contest.

Do you have XBox Live? That changes things. Anyway... STAR WARS KNIGHTS OF THE OLD REPUBLIC

I'll make a statement equal to Rush's that is, IMO, accurate. Jeremy Shockey wouldn't be a story if he wasn't any of the following: 1. A white Tight End 2. Playing in the biggest market in the league 3. Could keep his mouth shut. None of those have anything to do with playing ability...but they are the reasons he's a story. Does the league pull for McNabb because he's a black QB? The answer: Not since Mike Vick came around.

It has to be Jarrett followed by Raven. I think Jarrett takes home pay for multiple positions

BWAHAHAHAHAHA Sox Blow...part 2

Very true...but they'll push the IC title as special for the next few months out of sheer necessity. Goldberg doesn't work often enough...and the IC title will have to carry house shows and probably every other RAW. They had to put it on someone that people at least care about...and that left Jericho and RVD.

Every single one of those people is less ready to be IC champion than RVD is. Hurricane is pushed as too small... Kane is the opposite of the draw he was before Shane (LOOK AT THE DROP!!!) Teddy Long??? Tommy Dreamer??? Is the IC title going to be the darkmatch title? Christian was a good choice.

HHH left the cupboard bare. They're forced to make guys that he made look like shit into the main attraction... until he gets back...then we'll see how they fare.

I'd love to see who the five people are. I get Jericho...but he has other things going on with Austin. The IC division is literally Christian and RVD. Kane was the biggest ratings loser...so it can't be him. Why is the belt on RVD? Because they need someone to main event all the house shows that Goldberg doesn't work

No one expected him to be. The man hasn't been pushed in almost TWO YEARS. He just got done jobbing in every feud he's been in this year.

"The real damage in the Raw rating seemed to be for Kane vs. Hurricane, where the rating dropped from the 3.9 for the announcers match to a 3.4" Yeah....Shane O'Mac really helped Kane along, eh?
