I can't wait. Just in case I missed Vince McMahon taking advantage of a female employee on Monday night, I can stay up to watch it at 2:00 AM on Saturday night.

Ken Kennedy as a top heel in ECW? All of that hope I had for this to succeed has suddenly disappeared.

In that stance, you would have thought Paul London just saw Bryan Danielson enter the ring. Does he really need to get that jacked up to fight a woman?

I don't think it's overdoing it. With Benoit it was more of what could've been. He was coming off the beginnings of a Benoit vs Lesnar feud that produced one of the best matches of all time. The feud was going along really well until HHH ran out of opponents on Raw. Benoit had way more potential upside in his reign than either Rey, Jericho or Kane had (coming in booking wise) as they did not have the same momentum and same possibilities that Benoit could've achieved. A Benoit vs Lesnar feud with Benoit winning the belt at No Way Out or Wrestlemania had the chance to be the most memoarable event in wrestling history. Instead Benoit got wasted over at Raw. That's being treated worse than dirt. What match would that be?

Wonder if they'll show the production meetings where Triple H shoots down any idea to put over a new talent?

I know! Ottawa finished the regular season with 113 points, and Buffalo only had 110! They are so horrible! I think he is one of those fans that thinks the Stanley Cup Finals are only entertaining if there is atleast one Canadian team involved.

What illness? Carolina is lucky. Cam Ward is doing a fine job in net. He had some type of stomach virus, lost twenty pounds in the week prior to the playoffs starting and couldn't keep any food down throughout the first few games of the Montreal series.

I don't like to toot my own horn, but I CALLED IT!!

It may be time for one of those triple overtime games that last until 3:00 in the morning.

Haven't watched Smackdown recently, like ALOT of people. Is there any reason why WWE is doing this to Rey Mysterio? Did he piss someone off backstage? Are they preparing to take the title off of him so he can go to ECW? It just doesn't make any logical sense to have your champion look like shit every week.

I feel bad for Martin Gerber. Everyone wants to think that he just fell flat in the playoffs, but no one mentions his illness.

If Carolina can have a few consistent years of either postseason appearances or strong seasons, I think they can build a fairly strong market. They have some of the best fans in hockey, they just haven't had much of a reason to show up other than '01-'02 and now this season.

I can see The Sandman being one of ECW biggest stars... but New Jack? He was good for about 10 minutes to fill a gap in a house show or a match, other than that, probably one of the worst wrestlers in ECW history. He was one of the more identifiable figures in ECW, whether you like him or not. He was the epitome of the "extreme" side of ECW. I would consider The Dudleys, Sabu, Funk, and Dreamer the more "extreme" side of ECW over New Jack. Like I said, he was just a time killer. Hit people with strange objects and fall from high places = "extreme". New Jack = King of hitting people with strange objects and falling from high places.

So, what is Philadelphia going to do with the Hitchcock situation? I guess it's time to talk about Buffalo-Carolina. These sweeps are really sucking the enjoyment of the playoffs out of me. Game 2 of Carolina / New Jersey was one of the most exciting games I have seen in a while. Did you see it?

The minute a WWE writer makes a reference to EWR, he would likely cease to exist in our world. To compare anything in the real world to a computer game is just...wrong. I also hope Chris Benoit enjoys the new opportunities he continues to explore in WWE. Maybe someday he'll make it to the big show.

Casual fans have no idea who Jushin Liger is, so of course they won't be excited about his appearance.

Another example of what WCW did better than WWE. In WCW, Fit Finlay was just Fit Finlay. In WWE, they expect him to be something more.

Perhaps Paul Heyman wanted people to see just how bad the current WWE product is? Like he almost used OVW as a parody of the current state of WWE? I guess he completed his #1 objective; put the title on C.M. Punk.

I thought Chris Chambers died in a lunch line trying to seperate 2 guys from fighting. He was stabbed in the neck and almost died instantly. That's what my Uncle Gordie Lachance said. I don't think so. If that was the case he wouldn't have been able to be one of the top wide receivers in the AFC last season.

I think it is a little too late for that and would be MUCH too late if they wanted to wait for game four. Domenik Hasek would need to be at the top of his game to help the Senators rebound from their 2-0 deficit, a hobbled Hasek just wouldn't be able to get it done.

Hasn't Danny Doring been semi-retired for quite a while?

This is the type of content we should see on Impact. I know I would be much more inclined to continue to watch A.J. Styles vs. Samoa Joe than if I switched over in the middle of a Jeff Jarrett/Sting confrontation. TNA was at it's best when it debuted, as it was about the in-ring action at that time. Once Vince Russo showed up and after he left, it seemed like the promotion struggled to find it's identity.

If the rumors about Jeff Hardy's return are true, I think the Hardy Boyz could fit right in with the new ECW.

I doubt the shows cost that much to put on in the first place, atleast not much in terms of what WWE can afford.
