Styles

You rang? Yeah I agree, TNA totally out classes WWE by mentioning Lockwood's death, focusing on signs and wrestlers like Ekmo and Raven and I think Daniels too (after his match he pointed to his black armband and then to the sky) wearing tributes...

Yeah, but has Sabin gotten a title shot since Jeff Jarrett became champ? I don't think so. FUCK JARRETT!

Yeah, Lo Ki vs. Fallen Angel was match of the show, but still disappoiting. They were holding back mostly because of time and match position. Still had some fun and innovative spots in it. Also, Luger being unprofessional aside, the main event was pretty good and built up good heat. At least **

AWESOME

Yeah but don't use it as a source if you want an accurate paper...

Kind of dissapointing, seems like they were holding back on account of time and match placement. **1/2 by my count. Also, when discussing TNA still being around, if they get big and challenge WWE, wouldn't it be ironic that WWE gets fucked over yet again by a Panda?

As someone who hasn't seen CM Punk's "straight edge' act, I'd like to eventually see him do it in TNA. I find it funny though that 10 years ago, a wrestler who talked about not doing drugs or drinking alcohol would be pushed as a huge babyface rolemodel, now the same gimmick is a condecending prick heel...

I don't think it was like that at all. I'm positive it went like this: TNA: Sting, can you work a couple shows for us? Sting: Only if you bring in Luger the second week. TNA: Fine. Im positive he didn't blackmail. Im sure it was a condition to him coming in though.

Finally got my tape (damn college and no PPV!) I was a strong defender of TNA for bringing in Luger who was down on his luck getting another chance. -First of all the fact that Sting pushed for it and even made a condition should be no suprise. They have been best friends even through hard times forever. I'm not gonna fault Sting for being a good friend. No one should be down on Sting, he is the biggest star bar none TNA has, and he put over Styles huge on Wednesday. -That said, I can not be happy with Luger's performence. I thought he would be humbled. I thought he would be out to prove people wrong, but I couldn't believe he wouldn't let Styles get one offensive move on him, or take any bumps for him, and would only be pinned by him after several bat shots and a roll up. The only way this would be good is if Luger had announced a 1 on 1 challenge next week and decisively put over Styles. I remember someone suggested a long term storyline for Luger where he consistently loses and starts to build babyface sympathy as the old star looking to recapture glory and eventually gets a big win. If Luger could have changed his attitude then it would have been a cool stoyline. Fuck him. TNA obviously did not really want him and it doesn't look like he'll be back. All muscles, no brains... -

I'm a what? What the fuck's your problem dude?

I had never heard Carlin's take, so I did a google search, found it and it's hilarious. As a service to those that have never heard it, here it is: GEORGE CARLIN ON THE 10 COMMANDMENTS from "Complaints and Grievances" (HBO special) Here is my problem with the ten commandments- why exactly are there 10? You simply do not need ten. The list of ten commandments was artificially and deliberately inflated to get it up to ten. Here's what happened: About 5,000 years ago a bunch of religious and political hustlers got together to try to figure out how to control people and keep them in line. They knew people were basically stupid and would believe anything they were told, so they announced that God had given them some commandments, up on a mountain, when no one was around. Well let me ask you this- when they were making this shit up, why did they pick 10? Why not 9 or 11? I'll tell you why- because 10 sound official. Ten sounds important! Ten is the basis for the decimal system, it's a decade, it's a psychologically satisfying number (the top ten, the ten most wanted, the ten best dressed). So having ten commandments was really a marketing decision! It is clearly a bullshit list. It's a political document artificially inflated to sell better. I will now show you how you can reduce the number of commandments and come up with a list that's a little more workable and logical. I am going to use the Roman Catholic version because those were the ones I was taught as a little boy. Let's start with the first three: I AM THE LORD THY GOD THOU SHALT NOT HAVE STRANGE GODS BEFORE ME THOU SHALT NOT TAKE THE NAME OF THE LORD THY GOD IN VAIN THOU SHALT KEEP HOLY THE SABBATH Right off the bat the first three are pure bullshit. Sabbath day? Lord's name? strange gods? Spooky language! Designed to scare and control primitive people. In no way does superstitious nonsense like this apply to the lives of intelligent civilized humans in the 21st century. So now we're down to 7. Next: HONOR THY FATHER AND MOTHER Obedience, respect for authority. Just another name for controlling people. The truth is that obedience and respect shouldn't be automatic. They should be earned and based on the parent's performance. Some parents deserve respect, but most of them don't, period. You're down to six. Now in the interest of logic, something religion is very uncomfortable with, we're going to jump around the list a little bit. THOU SHALT NOT STEAL THOU SHALT NOT BEAR FALSE WITNESS Stealing and lying. Well actually, these two both prohibit the same kind of behavior- dishonesty. So you don't really need two you combine them and call the commandment "thou shalt not be dishonest". And suddenly you're down to 5. And as long as we're combining I have two others that belong together: THOU SHALT NOT COMMIT ADULTRY THOU SHALT NOT COVET THY NEIGHBOR'S WIFE Once again, these two prohibit the same type of behavior. In this case it is marital infidelity. The difference is- coveting takes place in the mind. But I don't think you should outlaw fantasizing about someone else's wife because what is a guy gonna think about when he's waxing his carrot? But, marital infidelity is a good idea so we're gonna keep this one and call it "thou shalt not be unfaithful". And suddenly we're down to four. But when you think about it, honesty and infidelity are really part of the same overall value so, in truth, you could combine the two honesty commandments with the two fidelity commandments and give them simpler language, positive language instead of negative language and call the whole thing "thou shalt always be honest and faithful" and we're down to 3. THOU SHALT NOT COVET THY NEIGHBOR"S GOODS This one is just plain fuckin' stupid. Coveting your neighbor's goods is what keeps the economy going! Your neighbor gets a vibrator that plays "o come o ye faithful", and you want one too! Coveting creates jobs, so leave it alone. You throw out coveting and you're down to 2 now- the big honesty and fidelity commandment and the one we haven't talked about yet: THOU SHALT NOT KILL Murder. But when you think about it, religion has never really had a big problem with murder. More people have been killed in the name of god than for any other reason. All you have to do is look at Northern Ireland, Cashmire, the Inquisition, the Crusades, and the World Trade Center to see how seriously the religious folks take thou shalt not kill. The more devout they are, the more they see murder as being negotiable. It depends on who's doin the killin' and who's gettin' killed. So, with all of this in mind, I give you my revised list of the two commandments: Thou shalt always be honest and faithful to the provider of thy nookie. & Thou shalt try real hard not to kill anyone, unless of course they pray to a different invisible man than you. Two is all you need; Moses could have carried them down the hill in his fuckin' pocket. I wouldn't mind those folks in Alabama posting them on the courthouse wall, as long as they provided one additional commandment: Thou shalt keep thy religion to thyself.

True but when you're in there with stiff boards, bumping around is the only thing you can do to make the match watchable. Ric Flair and Shawn Michaels did the same thing through their careers...

I have a new spin on it: Morgan or Jones REALLY break Angle's neck botching a suplex or something...

The Bashams over the Guerreros when Bashams outsmart Eddy. Chavo turns afterward. Lita over Molly. Tajiri over Knoble, with help from Not Yakuza (Dragon with the save?) Kane over Shane Mcmahon, Kane hijaks the ambulence and drives it off a cliff or blows it up or something with Shane in it. Team Bischoff over Team Austin. RVD after being eliminated chairs Michaels or something to give Jericho the win. Austin finds something new to do. Vince over Undertaker, Kane helps Vince win. Goldberg over HHH by DQ, when Batista interferes setting him up for a title match at Armageddon, HHH probably hits him with a sledgehammer too. Team Angle over Team Lesnar, probably the last match on the card since the title match wont likeley have a set finish...then again I guess Vince and Taker may put their match on last...who knows. Anyway either Cena or Benoit eliminate Lesnar to become the next title challenger. I won't order, there's potential for good and bad everywhere, but overall I just don't care. I feel like I wouldn't miss a thing, but if I "find" it online, I might give it a look.

I say the state of the economy after 9/11 is blamed...

That's right, Jeff Jarrett wears vinyl to symbolize his authority in the company and as an excuse to pay himself. Any more gems?

Hi guys! I hope there's no sagas I'm interrupting! .....hmmm....oh....OH...woops...

And it has been done! Now choke on that, jurassic slapass...

Thank you. This should be fun for a while...

What's it take to get some service in this joint?
