Damn and I thought a title match from 1970-whatever would look awesome when transferred to DVD. Anyway, I saw bits of a movie on TV last night about a Japanese man that decided to move to America and become a cowboy. Wonder if that is the basis of Jimmy Wayne Yang.

I highly doubt anyone is being added to the HIAC match at Unforgiven. From a kayfabe standpoint, McMahon shouldn't allow it. From a real life standpoint, I can't see DX being booked to need an even 3 on 3 match to be able to win.

In regards to Edge's promo, I might have been overly enamoured with it do to the fact he kept causing me to laugh (comparing Cena's moveset to a retarded gorilla, for example). Speaking of the opening promo, did anyone else notice the (very well made) sign with the TNA logo on it (it may have said "Is the Future" underneath) that seemed to vanish after the lights changed colour for Edge's promo?

Didn't people say the same thing about ECW which now tours and has it's own timeslot? The only way to relaunch WCW would be by bringing back Eric Bischoff. No. ECW "died before it's time because TNN was gay" or whatever people want to say. WCW died in January 1999 and it's ghost haunted the wrestling world for another two years. That's how history is currently viewed on the matter, I believe.

Very solid Raw last night. Edge's promo was great, the matches were good, and everything built to something. Well played. Cryme Tyme was hilarious.

Yes

Hmmm... yeah, I knew I must have heard it somewhere before.

Racial stereotypes parody? I am PSYCHED. (100% serious).

I have nothing against the name Versus or Vs. - my question is, why did Hottoaster go period-versus-period (.vs.)

Aren't most women? Maybe it's me... Anyway, yes, this was an odd piece of news to wake up to at work this morning. Considering all the crazy things he did, I didn't think his career / life would end at the hands of a string ray toxin (or whatever) that's for sure. It was weird to read how big of a deal this is in Australia.

12 am Friday (Saturday morning) on Global and a few other times on the Xtreme channel (which I believe Meltz reported has roughly 300 subscribers).

Hopefully I'm not violating the policy of "being nice to people and not being a jerk in wrestling folders" that Alfdogg has stated he wants to see, but since when does versus have a period both before and after the abbreviation "vs"? Also I assume everyone is aware Carlito vs Orton has been added to Unforgiven via WWE.com

Rock on, 'Sault.

Too early as usual (and some people seem to be agreeing with me), but hooray! No week in the thread title!

Like "Hardcore Discussion" was a better name? Yes. It was. Or, you could rename it, "The Pit." You're both right. I saw nothing wrong with just leaving it NHB. People can make fictional claims about evolution all they want, this forum grew out of being a wrestling board and there is no shame in making the forum battlegrounds have a wrestling-esque title. Hey, the "Battlegrounds" is pretty neat sounding.

I'm a mark for the SD! games so I'm looking forward to the PS2 version of this. Here's hoping for a better version of GM mode (I'm not holding my breath, but a kayfabe-breaking "booker chooses the winner" type thing would be nice). My friend and I played a season of it, it was an amusing time waster. Kid Kash being in while others like London are omitted is somewhat bizarre, unless they made their roster choices around the Royal Rumble when he was CW champ and being pushed while London was marching to Titan Towers to complain about jobbing to Nunzio (I forget exactly when that ended and his re-push with Kendrick began).

I just finished watching this and it was pretty depressing sitting through it. All throughout the spring and summer, Mortis and Wrath were getting a very nice push. Then, it was all squandered as they were treated like WCW Pro jobbers by The Outsiders. Outside of a couple decent moves by Mortis, the Outsiders completely dominated and mocked two of the most unique and original gimmicks in WCW (I know, not saying much). Just awful. And about one year later, Nash ended Wrath's singles push as being undefeated.

I can't catch a break with WWE's on demand services. First I get my credit card stolen and am unable to start a new account with 24/7 Online, and now I get 24/7 on cable and Cogeco doesn't have all the shows that it should. I still love it, but the fact that I'm always missing events from "The Big Ones" is somewhat annoying. This is starting my 3rd week with it and I'm missing more content than usual - the new NWA show for the week did not appear, and as usual I am missing all PPV events. The really weird thing this week is, since TBO for me is usually just house shows (the first week it had SummerSlam 92 and a Meadowlands show from 88, second week it just had the house show), I have Boston Gardens 86 and MSG 91. That MSG show was not supposed to be on 24/7 for another 2 weeks, and the description for the Boston show is actually for ECW Barley Legal (which should be in the section along with Starrcade 85, The Wrestling Classic, and ECW ONS 2, but isn't).

It's a Quebec thing due to lack of The Score. That is my understanding on the odd Raw airing situation in Quebec, anyway.

I didn't realize Raw was on USA this week and assumed it was still on Sci-Fi. Not that it matters to me - Tennis is on TSN and Raw is on The Score. Sidenote: I noticed my digital guide listed the US Open as being on CNBC tonight.

A few of the previous seasons were 10 weeks. If you see the first page of the Season 7 thread you'll see I referred to it as a "marathon" season, as 14 weeks was the longest yet (I believe).

Even better news: Unhappily Ever After starts on CFMT (Omni1) tomorrow.

I already ranted about this with ECW. I was half expecting Butterspoon to call this "Raw Week #693" in regards to my other complaint, but, much like his rant in NHB about other posters, I'm not nearly imnportant enough to be spited at in that way.

Well, according to my #1 source for all wrestling news (Wikipedia): Adonis wrestled briefly with the WWF after WrestleMania III and was released. Adonis then wrestled with the AWA again during 1987. During this stint, Adonis feuded with Tommy Rich and lost the final match of the AWA International Television Championship tournament to Greg Gagne in December 1987. Adrian Adonis was decapitated in a gruesome car crash, along with Dave "Wildman" McKigney and Pat Kelly on July 4, 1988 in Newfoundland in a van crash with a wild moose.

I also had not heard the term before. I don't care for any of this, really, and now alfdogg is threatening people to not insult others for having stupid opinions in the WWE folder. How can any self respecting person bring an argument over to a folder called... ugh... "Chocolate Socket"?
