Do what I did and drop out of school early. Or, on second thoughts, maybe you shouldn't.

Why? Because he noticed that RVD had a terrible match with someone? Because he's sick of John Cena's stale act? Because he noticed that Shane was booked far too strongly over Shawn tonight?

Hooray!

Bah. ROH isn't the same without Punk on commentary. "Crotch hold and lift.", anyone? Didn't think so.

Love Shack returns with three special guests

Annie, Annie, Annie. Judge/Ejiro/Annie was such a great trio.

You all talk like the Smackdown locker room invented ribbing. Buy some shoot interviews people, public traded company or no public traded company, things like this have happened in wrestling for years.

Seeing Card mentioned...didn't Card use real (as in real people) picbases for some of the characters? Va'aiga was tribal Rock with or without the mask, right? And I swear there was a poster with all of the Unnamed on it, where Maddix's picbase was Brian Kendrick.

If we get a new SWF.com, we should treat it like WWE.com instead of "a second place to post your stats". Any bios on there should have no more information than a real bio would. Articles and stuff would be good too. Also, it'd help design wise if our characters all had picbases.

I might just do that and see what happens.

See, that's how you present an impartial viewpoint (Rudo, that is). And he's pretty much dead right.

Then it's really a shame you can't do that Then Previous rulings state that you can put a title shot on the line in this match but not a title unless the actual match is booked for the title (Hardcore title was actually on the line in CB II) THERE ARE NO PREVIOUS RULES BECAUSE IT'S CALVINBALL AND THERE ARE NO STIKING RULES!!!!!!!!! Man, where's Thoth to tear people new assholes over this?

A rather important promo that I forget to send is now in pre-main event and a not so important promo edited in after Reject's match. Go read them. Now. After all, I am WOTY, remember, so they must be good! EDIT: Also, more stuff from EWC is in.

The crowd respects the guys you've mentioned because they've earnt it through time. HHH and Taker have been in the company for years, Benoit, Eddie and Rey in the business for years. The lack of respect for guys like Cena and Orton is because they've been thrown into positions they're not ready for, in time periods that never would have been so short a few years ago. Victims of being pushed too hard, too fast. There's not enough backstory, not enough time to get a vested interest. I hate to use the terms 'paying your dues', but I guess that might have something to do with it. You earn the respect over time and HBK and Taker are the perfect examples.

You see, I thought this would have morphed into the TSM staple "ANGLE -VS- JOE" by Page 1. You guys are slipping. Bruce, Joe's what do you class as 'bigger' guys exactly? As listed above, Tank is 350lbs or so, Bradley is about 280lbs, Abyss is roughly 300lbs. Chris Hero would count as a 'bigger' guy in my book and he's had some very good matches with him. His stuff with Necro could certainly be considered 'entertaining' and Necro's no small guy. So, including Kobashi, you have 6. You could argue for BJ Whitmer and Dan Maff matches too, I guess. Joe doesn't face a lot of big guys because TNA are giving him the monster push and everyone likes to book him to his strengths, which are matches against bigger guys. Pegasus, comparing emotion of a Wrestlemania dream match to a ROH dream match is the worst comparison you can make. They're on such different scales it's ridiculous. You're comparing a match at the biggest show of the year, for drama, with an indy show match, with completely different sizes and types of crowd and atmosphere. It's not an accurate comparison.

I eagerly anticipate a Steiner/Hoyt feud.

How long did Shane Douglas last in the WWF in 91? He was in the Rumble, that's all I know.

Baguette > All. Well, if it's Crimson Skull's weapon, it should be a toy laser gun that shoots mini frisbees at people.

Very true. The saddest thing is, you can argueably say that about 90-95% of the roster at the moment. I voted HHH though, if only because he was entertaining for a while...which was a longer while than Cena was. If that makes sense.

Ooh, another one. Derek Frazier. Watchable, but I see no real standout qualities whatsoever in him.

Before the intro, plz! -------------------------------- *EARLIER TODAY* Outside the arena, the threesome of John "Rock Hard" Brickston, Spanish Fly and Colombian Heat are stood in a huddle and apparantly waiting on something or, perhaps, someone. With the Latino Thug Street Fight later in the night, Brickston is wearing some worn jeans and a simple black wifebeater, Spanish Fly in one of his new Spanish Fly t-shirts (shill!) and faded jeans (and his mask, naturally), while Heat is pimpin' it up with baggy combat pants and his personalised soccer jersey, as well as tons of bling. Yeah, I said bling. I'm street, yo. As they stand waiting in what is probably the cold (I'm not really close enough to guess what the weather's like in the US, see) the dulset tones of James Blunt begin to play through the parking lot. The three collectively turn up their noses as a car of some sort (I'm not good on cars either, see) pulls up in front of them. A few seconds later, once it parks up, the sunroof opens and LEON RODEZ! pops his head through the roof. RODEZ [i]You're beautiful, it's truuueee![/i] What's up guys! Rodez ducks back through the roof and thankfully switches the radio off, while Heat asks Fly exactly "what's dat cracker's problem, dawg?" Exiting the car, Rodez jigs around to the boot and grabs his bags, while the threesome in front of him continue to wait. RODEZ Man, that's a tune. So what are you guys doing out here? FLY Waiting for you, man. We wanna talk over the Latino Thug Street Fight tonight, because we figured you wouldn't really know what the deal was. RODEZ You'd be completely correct. But, I came prepared anyway. Reaching into his pocket, Rodez grabs a pack of toothpicks, opening it up and sticking one in the corner of his mouth. RODEZ Orralay, holmes! HEAT Yo, da's offensive to mah culture! RODEZ So...I should leave the sombrero in the trunk, right? All three nod in unison. RODEZ Alright, no stereotypical Latino stuff. Probably wasn't best advised now that I think about it. So, what is the deal with this Latino Thug thing then? FLY Well, it's an ordinary street fight really. But there's a couple of little rules...you know, minor stuff. Like you wearing what you enter the arena in to the ring. And also, you've gotta bri...woah, where you going? Rushing back over to his car, Rodez hurriedly throws his bag up and onto the car and quickly starts to pull out his ring gear. HEAT Whatchu doin', sucka? RODEZ Well, apparantely I'm putting my gear on! All three look confused. RODEZ Technically, we're not in the arena yet. We have to wear out to the ring the clothes we come to the arena in...so if I get changed out here, then I can wear my gear to the ring. Comprendé? Rodez pulls his shirt off and throws it haphazardly to the floor. HEAT Brah, it's a street fight. You supposed ta be wearin' street clothes, dat's the point! RODEZ Street clothes, schmeet clothes my Colombian friend. I worked hard for these thighs, they're not being hidden under jeans no matter how designer or expensive they may be. I'm not a Latino Thug. I'm a wrestler with a well toned body that I like to oil up and show off to people. Now, if that makes me an egotistical narcissistic sports pimp, then I guess I'm just an egotistical narcissistic sports pimp. FLY So what, you're gonna get changed out here in the middle of the parking lot? RODEZ ...good point. Grabbing his keys, Rodez opens up the backdoor of the car, throwing in his bag and pulling down his pants as he crawls onto the backseat. Brickston begins to survey the night sky while Fly and Heat look down at their feet. RODEZ (from inside the car) [i]Man. *GRUNT* Now I know why most wrestlers...*GRUNT*...wear their gear everywhere they go.[/i] Rodez continues to struggle with his clothing, while the trio outside the car try to find new and interesting places to look. Walking past, Charles Robinson and Brian Hebner take an interest in the rocking car and grunting, joining Heat, Brickston and Fly in what they assume is the jolly-good pastime of dogging. Or, so I'm told. Eventually, after much grunting and groaning, Rodez emerges from the car in his wrestling gear (sans elbowpads, which he now starts putting on). Robinson and Hebner dejectedly leave, as Rodez holds his arms to the side. RODEZ Feels like I'm missing something... HEAT Look man, you best gets serio... RODEZ ROBE! *slaps forehead* Man, how stupid would I have looked walking in the door without my robe, huh guys? Pretty darned stupid, that's how. Rummaging back through the trunk, Rodez unfurls a lavish purple robe, matching his ring gear. RODEZ Okay, so what's the other rules? FLY Well, you have to bring your own weapon to the ring with you. RODEZ Weapon? Right...weapons, weapons... Going back through the trunk, Rodez searches through his VAST storage space for something to inflict some Latino Thuggery with. RODEZ Okay, tyre iron...a little drastic. *CLANG!* Windscreen wiper fluid...I think not. *SPLASH!* Toolbox...too heavy. *CLUNK!* Bundle of lighttubes...convenient, but I think one epic-Deathmatch per career is enough for me. License 2 Pin, 2004. Don't hate. *CRAAASH!* Skimpy underwear, NOT mine, I swear...best give them back to Alix methinks. *THONG!* HEAT Brah, chill, we's gonna find somethin' inside. Seriously, whatchu gonna do wit' all that junk in yo' trunk? RODEZ I'ma get get get get you drunk, get you drunk off of my humps? HEAT ... RODEZ (dancing) My hump my hump, my hump my hump my humps, my lovely lady lumps? BRICKSTON [i]*She got me spendiiiiin'...*[/i] RODEZ See, he gets it! And you to think, you two call yourself street? Fly and Heat look at each other in despair before walking off into the arena. Brickston shrugs and follows on, while Rodez watches on with arms folded. RODEZ Where's the love, ya'll?

If not for promo ability, I'd tend to agree with you. I like Punk a lot, but I'd never buy a show specifically to see him wrestle and I, personally, wasn't a major fan of the Joe/Punk series. Punk's a hit and miss kinda guy in terms of opinions of him in the ring. As for others mentioned: I'm one of Hero's biggest fans, but I'll agree that he's a love him or hate him kinda worker. He's probably the best heel character/interview on the indy circuit today though and his feud with Eddie Kingston in CZW/IWA/CHIKARA has been superb. Danielson isn't always boring. Search out him invading CZW, or any match he's had with Jack Evans. Rave's improved hugely since I first saw him 3 or so years ago. Hating on Jack Evans = shocking.

You can download YouTube videos using the following program: http://www.enriquepuertas.com/?p=22 How does this work? I've downloaded the program and a file through it, but I can't find it in My Documents anywhere after it's done.

Okay, so what does anyone see in Joey Ryan? I've seen him 4 times and all four times he was pretty terrible. Am I missing something? Is there some interesting or entertaining gimmick I'm missing, because so far all I've got is he wears a 70s sort of shirt and he likes Hilary Duff. He comes off as really bland in the ring and he managed to have a really terrible match with El Generico at Cage Of Death 7...and I love Generico. And he is/was the PWG Champion? I don't get it. So, who don't you get the love for?

"I'm a stupied lamewad who writes fake wrestling matches in his spare time + 3" has potential. I like it! Seriously though, Revolution Zero would be a pretty good name. If you're going the self referencial route, Toxxic Shock Syndrome would be okay.
