WWE Raw Is Afterschool Special

Yeah, she was hanging with Eugene. You need to be a bit quicker with your posts.

Why does Viscera have his shit walking with him in a robe? That little thing's got corn stuck all in it.

Also... this means... Fake Retard > Lying Teacher

This is wonderful.

THE MISTAKE WINS!

It's either Jericho hits Cena with a guitar, or Cena hits Jericho with his marketing staff, which is sort of like a singapore cane, only not. Cena's secondary weapon --- his more-talented producer.

I said last week that Matt will be/should be the ambulance driver (if there is one). The last stretcher match was just "push opponent across a line" on stretcher, and in an ambulance match you had to get them into it.... But hopefully Edge bleeds so bad that he is actually taken to an ambulance, and we get "Where To, Stephanie?" Version TWO-AH.

Note: This isn't about the current storylines or any rumored matches, this is just me throwing out a question. It's a simple question, and one that is harder to answer than it seems to me. I don't think either of them truly deserve it with all of the other talent flowing around both shows, but Edge seems like he is going to end up with it eventually. Edge's primary heat for almost the last year was his whining and now the Matt Hardy incident. One goes away when he wins the title, but I doubt it will get transfered to anything larger, the other is just there to be dealt with as it is being dealt with. Cena's primary heat stems from playing the crowd to points of annoyance, and barring exceptions, has actually been seeming to get worse in the ring in the last year or so. It's become move, pause, move, pause, move, pause, play to crowd, move, pause, etc. and while that does get him the "he notices us!" heat from the arena, it is already getting horribly stale. As of this moment, I would rather have Cena as the champion and wait until they build up more faces for the Raw ME scene. Right now it's Big Show, John Cena, and Kane...with Shelton and now possible Matt nipping at their heels and Big Show hasn't even appeared since his first show on the brand, at least not that I can remember, though I didn't see a few shows. For that matter...the heel side is HHH, HBK, Kurt Angle, Chris Jericho, and Edge. Not alot of guys, but more than the two-three that the face side is. So...comment, people.

Watching the opening moments of Nash/HBK at WM11... just DAMN could Nash move when he was motivated back then. He just goes from rope to rope like a shot.

The new Space Mountain looks to be amazing (I live in MD so like I'd ever get near it) but the idea of the loading dock "rotating" in space among alot of the other new stylistic and decor elements (the blackest paint they could find ON EVERYTHING to make it seem like you really are floating) seems to me to have broughten the ride up from the hellhole it had been in the past decade or so with much better coasters on Disney property, let alone throughout the US and the World.

As people have said, Batista/Taker is NOT an option at this point. They shouldn't have done Hassan/Taker as a number one contenders match, for sure. BUT...there aren't many guys they can push right into that title slot. Orton could do it, considering it seems he is going to be healthy by then and does have some beef with Batista, but then where does that leave Taker for Summerslam? Would he just not have a match? Would he face JBL? And if he would face him...why? Taker's character just seems to be in total "random heel attacking" limbo right now, and will probably stay that way until someone finally beats him at WM and he can retire. Sure, he still gets the pops, but unless he loses at Mania he really isn't losing cause it does next to NOTHING for the person that wins. Hassan isn't going to be any more over after GAB, partially because Orton is probably going to attack, and mostly because nobody is going to be treating Hassan any differently for defeating the Deadman. He'll come out and tout it, and they will say "ah, Randy Orton helped, blah blah blah." Also, Hassan should lose at Summerslam in under five minutes if he couldn't last for 3 in the ring with Cena on Raw. Batista should seriously just squash him down and maybe just destroy the Hassan character permenantly. It's worthless, no matter what kind of silly topical heat it gets.

On Benoit/Regal ... many people thought that after Benoit got the US title that Regal would join up with JBL as a member of his new cabinet and go after Benoit. Simple as that. I think Kurt will beat Show, for the simple reason that I could see Angle getting one more shot in the ME scene before his body is really wrecked. Show is almost dead in the water at this point, but can be built back up in a few months time if need be. Aaaaand finally, as for why CCC vs. Shelton would be a streetfight...if CCC continues to cheat and loophole through the stipulations, then a no-rules streetfight is exactly how to ensure that Shelton gets a "fair" chance at winning his championship back. I say "fair" because it just means now that both of them can use weapons or low blows or whathaveyou. Edit: Yes, there is no reason whatsoever that Orton/Taker should be a casket match.

....damn. 07/04/07 is now officially way too far away. I still am pissed about the helicopter thing, but damn was that sweet.

No tape decks...fine....BUT A HELICOPTER!? His name is "SOUND...WAVE" Unless it's an Apocalypse Now copter with "Ride of the Valkyries" constantly jamming...well I still won't like it, but not as much as I hate it now.

I was the one in the Raw thread commenting about the sillyness of the rosters, and with that, my idea has always been (at least for the last few months) to put the tag team division on Raw and the Cruiserweight division on Smackdown. By moving some people around and making a few changes, there could be two legit divisions. For the Tag Division: MNM Heartbreakers Superheroes The Bashams Two of the Mexicools (probably Crazy + Psychosis) Sylvian and Rene Version 2 BWO (Stevie & Nova) There's seven teams, and they can be moved around face/heel as needed. For the Cruisers... Paul London Funaki Rey Mysterio (also could be used in the US division if needed) Nunzio Juvy Tajiri Chavo/Kerwin S2H (might as well job him out a bit here and there if needed) That's about 8 guys, and they can always bring in more if they need it. I personally would probably can S2H for CM Punk coming up or something, but whatever. So there you go, two deeper divisions seperated where before there was nothing. Sure, tag matches could still be done for storyline purposes on Smackdown, but the belts would be for Raw. If a team on SD got the nerve up to challenge, they could jump and stay there, maybe with the clause that they have to go back to SD if they don't win the belts. Something, anything is better than the crappy divisions we have now.

Karma, Karma, Karma, Karma, Karma Chameleon... it comes and goes...it comes and goooooes....

Here's a question... What was the original purpose of the camera crew following Bret Hart around before SurSer 97? Of course, we all know that the footage ended up being used for "Wrestling With Shadows", but the crew could not have known about the screwjob beforehand (CONSPIRACY~!), so what were they doing?

But the thing is...the WWE doesn't really have THAT huge of a roster. If they did, maybe then they'd have credible tag, cruiser, and women's divisions. I estimate three tag teams, and about eight cruisers if you don't count any guys in the tag teams (include two Mexicools in the tag division and one in the CW division) and about 10 women, including valets and not counting the new Diva Search contestants. Of the 10 women, four of them are valets for other wrestlers, Trish is hurt, Victoria is MIA, Christy is shit, and Candice, Michelle, and Torrie Wilson on SD doesn't make for anything good. Read that again... THREE TRUE TAG TEAMS over both brands. THREE. For reference, it's the Heartbreakers, Superheroes, and MNM. That's it. Everybody else is either floundering around the midcard or is gunning for a championship. Or both. As for the "everybody else", I count about 32 people, which might be alot, but most of them are pretty worthless or injured and the ones that are left actually do have storylines. WWE dropped the ball with all the releases, as many of them had potential. They could have done alot better as far as talent cutting, at any rate. If it's true that the weekend shows might go away soon, WWE is really going to be screwed as far as getting talent on TV. Note: While some wrestlers, for instance Matt Hardy, are under the CW limit, I did not include them in the tally. Some guys are above that title. Not that I like to make that title meaningless, far from it, but some of the smaller guys (like Matt, Rey, etc) would be better if focused on the US/IC title level than the CW title.

Matt can afford it with his indy bookings.

i just hope Matt Striker comes out and says he's "Matt Hardy", thus causing Edge to grow paranoid. Later, Edge sits at security, screening people. Hardy comes up and says his name is Matt Striker. Edge nonchalantly lets him in, then Hardy turns around and clocks him. Edge later says he has "never seen make-up work that good"

let me have my moment!!

yeah right... six wrestling matches in two hours. What is this, PPV?

WOO! I get points for pretty much calling that one.

Only if he resurrects as Marty Jannetty. WOOOO!! MY WISH IS COMING TRUE!
