    The NFL Offseason/Pre-Draft Thread

    It would be great to find out that Terrell Owens showed up for training camp, went out for drills, and Donovan McNabb didn't throw him a single pass. I just don't understand how they expect someone in a contract dispute to perform at training camp, especially someone like Terrell Owens who probably wouldn't think twice about making some kind of comment to different teammates.

    WWE explains the HBK challenge

    You aren't going to get people to "boo" Hulk Hogan at this stage of his career, so Shawn Michaels' reason for attacking him really doesn't matter. Fans are not going to cheer against Hulk Hogan in the "final" match of his career.

    Underrated players you love

    They're both pretty young, but Chris Gamble and Keary Colbert are both guys I really enjoy watching. Chris Gamble led the NFC in interceptions in his rookie year and Keary Colbert had a rookie year second only to Michael Clayton as far as wide receivers go, yet neither of them are hardly talked about anywhere.

    Matt Hardy: The other perspective

    Being the most popular independent wrestling company is like being the most popular AA baseball franchise, it may matter to the people who follow the team but to everyone else it doesn't really matter. The fans would have to be idiots to jeer Matt Hardy when he appears, not only are they having the opportunity to see what should be an amazing match but WWE is doing RoH a big favor by even letting Matt Hardy appear at the show. RoH fans need to be happy with any publicity they can get at this moment, they can't live off of Northeast and Mid-West fans forever.

    Countdown to Live8 Begins

    I didn't have a problem with this show because I thought it was a good cause and everything, but when I found out that they weren't raising money and instead were "raising awareness" of poverty in Africa, I can't believe how stupid the whole concert was. You get all of this great talent together, draw some of the biggest crowds any event is going to draw all year, and you can't ask for a few dollars in donations from each person. The fact that the people who performed on the show got gift baskets full of luxury items makes it that much worse. Not to mention that if just the people booked for the concerts gave .01% of their yearly income to charity, we probably wouldn't be talking about poverty in the first place.
  6. I doubt Vince McMahon would waste his time putting down a promotion 99% of his fanbase doesn't know exists. C.M. Punk will likely still be allowed to defend the RoH title at RoH shows until he is going to be called up to the full-time WWE roster. Not really that big of a deal, just RoH trying to get some publicity by affiliating themselves with the promotion they swore against only a year or two ago.

    What does TNA need to do?

    I think they should start the show with a well-produced highlight video which shows all of the major events or matches that have happened in he companies' history. Throughout the show have video packages highlighting the history of the World, Tag Team, and X-Division titles, and have all three titles defended on the first show. Have atleast one type of match that isn't your everyday match, whether it be an Ultimate X match or a X-Division battle royal. They need to show the fans that they are a true alternative to WWE. The biggest thing I believe they need to do is get rid of the six-sided ring, it just doesn't add anything to the product and even takes away from great matches. Think back to the first few years of TNA's existance when they would have a really good match about every other week, since they have added the six-sided ring I cannot think of one standout match that didn't have an added gimmick.

    NBA Draft Lottery

    I can see Charlotte trading their two first-round picks to move up into the top three, they have been eyeing Marvin Williams for a while. I would rather see them stay where they are or possibly trade down one of their first-round picks to a team with two second-round picks. This year's draft is pretty deep as far as talented players. I highly doubt a franchise in their second year drafts a high school player and an unproven foreign player, or atleast I would like to think they wouldn't do that.

    "American Dragon" Bryan Danielson "quits" ROH

    Bryan Danielson is a great wrestler that I always enjoyed watching, but the wrestling world will go on without him. Once he slowly started to change his look from '04 to '05 I had a feeling something was going on. I always figured he would most likely strictly become a Japanese talent, too bad it had to go farther and he completely quit the business.

    Major PWU fiasco

    It is kind of hard to believe that some of the things you hear about happening on the independent scene actually happen. Sometimes they seem to be even more corrupt than the mainstream promotions they attempt to be an alternative to.

    The NFL Offseason/Pre-Draft Thread

    I'm sure Randy Moss would love that, "You get rid of me because I cause controversy, good idea to bring in Terrell Owens to take my place." I think Minnesota is content with taking either Braylon Edwards or Mike Williams in the draft, and they already have a roster full of underrated receivers.

FOX Sun., Dec. 18 at New Orleans 1:00 P.M. FOX Sat., Dec. 24 Dallas 1:00 P.M. FOX Sun., Jan. 1 at Atlanta 1:00 P.M. FOX Some tough games this year, so hopefully everyone can stay healthy. I wonder why they removed the Saturday night game against Atlanta from the schedule, I thought that was an annual event. Guess CBS got mad that a Saturday game on ESPN was more exciting than any Monday Night Football game they had all year. Nov. 27 against the Bills should be a really interesting game, two teams that were surging at the end of last year. At best I would think we could get atleast ten wins out of this year, possibly twelve if we finally get Michael Vick under control.

    Super Crazy/Taijiri

    Yeah, forgot about that match. I actually think it was as good if not better than their Anarchy Rulz three-way, they integrate the weapons perfectly without it taking away from that actual match.

    Carolina Championship Wrestling Results (4/9/05)

    I believe it is pretty far in the Western part of the state, between Asheville and Charlotte. If I didn't live all the way on the other side of the state my friend and I were talking about going. This makes the second time in about three or four weeks that Jeff Jarrett has been booked in North Carolina, so hopefully this is a sign that our independent wrestling scene will start picking up.

    Hardcore Homecoming

    I want to know if New Jack will go apeshit on another inexperienced worker again, just like the good ole' times.

    Homicide

    Homicide is responsible for bringing guys like Dan Maff and Low Ki into the business, so you know he is stiff in the ring. As far as face/heel it is really up to him, he can be the silent but violent face or the guy that will pick a fight with any fan in attendence heel. I would guess he would play the opposite of whatever Franky the Mobster is. Looking at the date of the post it looks like this show already went down, so you could let us know how it went?
  17. Reading these PWG press releases is like an event by itself, they are amazing. This show should be great, but that shouldn't be surprising considering it is PWG. Although I would like to know a little more about this second Super Dragon because I've kept up with the results of each show and never remember this guy being mentioned.

    CM Punk to be on Heat this week

    He'd have the same size problem that every other independent talent has. So, he would never get a fair chance against the "big boys" and would be stuck on Heat or Velocity every week. And even if they did offer him a contract, as big as he currently is on the indy scene, he would probably go the A.J. Styles route and decline.

    Some interesting Survivor Series 1997 stuff

    Probably Gerald Brisco or Vince McMahon himself, or Shawn Michaels since he had so much pull back then.

    Super Crazy/Taijiri

    I've only seen two singles matches between the two of them. A clipped one from a FMW video I have and the '00 Mexican Deathmatch from ECW on TNN. I must say that the Mexican Deathmatch was an amazing match, non-stop action throughout the whole thing. But the three-way from Anarchy Rulz '99 is really good as is the three-way with Jerry Lynn from November to Remember '99.

    Hardcore Homecoming

    I'm guessing Shane Douglas' reunion show will be based more off nostalgia and WWE's more on in-ring product. As far as the announced main-event, it will be a terrible match but for fans who were at the ECW Arena when those three fought in the first ever three-way dance, it should be something special.

    I'm going to buy Jasmin's 3PW promotion

    Hell, if you received a book with all of their talent's phone numbers in it it would be worth it. Just phone up Slyk Wagner Brown and tell him how hot April Hunter is, then lock all of the doors to your house and hide in the closet.

    Just how big time is the WWE/Wrestlemania

    I have a feeling that anybody on the independent circuit, no matter how much they've bad-mouthed Vince McMahon, if offered a spot at WrestleMania would jump at the chance. I have a feeling most people on the independent scene view WrestleMania as a big event, and probably still gather around and watch it as fans.

    PWG All Star Weekend, April 1-2

    Yeah, from the sounds of Night One this was one of the best independent shows of the year. Night Two looked just as great with A.J. Styles vs. Super Dragon, anyone have the results?

    Ring of Honor Best of the Super Juniors results

    So Ring of Honor finally has an opportunity to add some stability to the Tag Team title situation...and they put the titles on B.J. Whitmer and Jimmy Jacobs? Hopefully this show was a sign that Rocky Romero will go going off on his own, because I've heard that Ricky Reyes really ruins the Havana Pitbulls' matches.
