Oh, and I STILL don't get why neither Chimmel or Garcia ever announce ringside accompanyment for wrestlers. Like, at this past Smackdown, when Birchill came out, they didn't mention Regal at ringside.

I was there, and I'll tell you...at least from where I was sitting, it was BIG.

He won at Summerslam 04 clean.

*tears up for Eddie again* At least they honored him. He deserved it. Oh, and a warning for you people watching this Piper's Pit coming up...something weird will happen in it.

I'm thinking that they should get Piper to school some of these people nowadays on mic work. ...WWE in Mexico. Will Rey wrestle minus mask?

I think that's a sign that Benoit may NOT have signed a new contract.

Change your sig so the middle picture is just a blank image with TBD on it. Nah. I'll just wait till the show is over to put the picture of the new champ up. I mean, I was there to see it happen. I've known longer than most here. Does any one NOT know who the new champ is at this point? I'm not in favor of giving away spoilers, but this is the equivalent of knowing Anakin turns into Vader. I'm sure there's a few out there that still don't know. Some people at work I know didn't know, and I didn't tell them.

Just making sure... That WAS Ricky Steamboat that Batista first shook hands with, right?

Batista might have had he not gotten injured.

BOO! They cut a line! The line was, from Batista: "Until the next man to wear that belt beats me, they'll won't be The Man, they'll just be a man with a belt."

Good thing this was pre-taped. Now I can pay attention to what was being said, since I had someone yelling for Batista to go away behind me when I was there.

1996 BEFORE Fall Brawl or 1996 AFTER Fall Brawl?

He's on this week.

Definately more believable than this footage (A friend of mine dubbed it Uwe Boll doing Transformers) http://users.bigpond.net.au/skulleada/box.swf

I'm wondering the same thing. Brock got a combat knife in the middle of his and now Steiner has his gothic cross stabbed through a heart. I guess the chest tattoo is the fad for 2005/6 like the lower/upper back tattoos were of the past couple years. And Bam Bam Bigelow is waiting at his deli for the day when Head Tattoos return to prominance.

IIRC, they had a pretty good match back in 2003 (I believe) in a contender's tournament. Course, Taker was still Bikertaker at the time.

I disagree with it being a less established, less over star. It should be someone on the cusp of something big. Giving the ball to any ol schmo and telling him to run could be a disaster. Which is why I've suggested (and, at this past Smackdown since I went there live) that Rey Mysterio be the one to end Taker's streak. A lot of the people I suggested this to liked the idea.

Bumping this thread for this movie. Did anyone save it? Cause the link is now dead.

Eh, I think the main reason behind something like that is that they didn't want to try and explain how 20-25 foot tall robots could all of the sudden become small enough for a human to hold and pick-up.

Especially since Kid Kash is injured and probably won't be defending the belt anytime soon. ...not that it really matters to Vince either way, but still.

You know, that is a good point. Especially since those two never had a one on one match that wasn't interrupted by outside forces.

But the book 2010 and I think 3001 as well came before the movies...IIRC.

Oh, something not mentioned in the spoilers at the top that I think should be mentioned. Two of the people that Batista talked to backstage were Ricky Steamboat (That's what I heard, couldn't tell cause people were blocking my view of the screen) and Arn Anderson.

All you people complaining, I have to say this: I was there live to see it. It was a mark-out moment for pretty much the entire arena. That's what matters. It got the fan's attention. The fans loved it too. Heck, I was getting lost in the moment cellebrating too. EDIT: And now that the board is back up, time to update the siggy again.
