    Booking for the 5/4 HeldDown

    Adam wishes Jet played the theme song for the OC. Then it'd be his absolute dream show.

    40. My favorite posters. Top 10.

    I think I have a very good shot at making the Least Favorite Poster list.
  4. And notice RVD isn't being advertised. Are the separate ECW plans starting right after One Night Stand? I love how they advertise Snitsky as a draw too.

    TWIB #5: 1 May - 7 May

    So Billy Wagner has blown his third save in less than a month. If he doesn't watch out, he's going to be getting the Armando Benitez treatment very soon.
  6. Well, that's a matter of opinion. It seemed to me the Bush Double bit got more laughs primarily because people thought it was funny AND it wasn't as controversial as Colbert's piece. When you're in a room filled with pretentious media types that don't exactly like to poke fun at themselves -- besides Helen Thomas, of course -- controversial jokes aren't exactly going to light up the room with laughter. It just made the people there, who were sitting right before President Bush, feel uncomfortable. We can't discount the factor of Bush's participation either when determining why it got the laughs it did. If Colbert had done this same bit on The Colbert Report or The Daily Show, I think it would have killed.

    24: Season 5

    Martha: What's your first name, Agent? Agent: Justin, ma'am. Martha: Well Justin, you really don't have a personality now, do you? Between that and Chloe zapping the drunk, there was some good humor that worked tonight. Perhaps the scenes on the plane weren't exactly what you would call realistic, but they were definitely intriguing. And next week looks like it's going to be intense.

    OAOAST Living Angleously booking thread

    I understand there may be reasons that get in the way, but this has become a common trend that happens every single month now. It was never this way before. While there may have been an occasional show or two that were delayed, for the most part, we were able to get the PPV up at a reasonable time sometime on Sunday night for people to read. Now it never seems to happen. The show goes up late. People don't get a chance to read it. They become too preoccupied with their HeldDown stuff. The show doesn't get feedback. Big, fat waste of time for everybody. As I've said several times before, it's not fair for those of us that do get our matches in on time to have wait so long to see the card actually get posted. I mean, just look at 2006 so far: Living Anglelously -- it's Monday afternoon. Has not been posted yet. AngleMania V -- Wasn't posted until Monday evening. Zero Hour -- Posted very late Sunday night/early Monday morning Anglepalooza -- Posted very very late Sunday night/early Monday morning What happened to getting the show posted before a WWE PPV finishes on Sunday night? It's possible! I've seen it happen many times before. Believe me. If anybody understands tight workloads, it's me. But this is a trend that does need to stop because it's hurting the cards and the interest people have in them. Plan ahead of time. If you know for weeks what your PPV match is going to be, why not start writing it early instead of waiting for the day it's due? Many times, I don't begin writing until Sunday morning for my PPV match, but that's because I know I can get it on time without a problem. It seems others can't really do the same, so it's silly to try and wind up crashing and burning. Do it ahead of time and the issue is solved. This gets around the school assignment or time zone situations. Computer problems? Family emergencies? Illness? All problems, agreed. But these are problems that should affect writing only once in a while. From the looks of it, either these issues are happening every month or some are simply just getting lax with trying to get their stuff in before the deadline.

    Let's just wait until the end of May. Then we can replace all the "Living Anglelously" references with "School's Out" ones and make THIS show the May PPV card.

    nice guarantee there. lmao Not everybody can be as confident with their guarantees as Jingus when he says there is ABSOLUTELY, POSITIVELY no way that WWE would EVER put Cena against RVD at One Night Stand. The people here are clairvoyant.

    Well, Tony/Drek is done and sent. Not to start trouble obviously, but I do hope this whole Monday-afternoon PPV trend doesn't keep happening for every single show. It never used to be this way.

    They couldn't leave it alone and have Shawn win the big blow-off at WrestleMania that wrapped up several intersecting storylines at once. Just by hearing the result of this match, it was counterproductive in so many ways.

    Living Angleously Preview!

    HI-YAH Tag Team Title Match The Love Doctors © vs. D*LUX vs. Christian Wright and Bohemoth I'm going to say D*LUX. They've been doing very well lately, and it seems Christian/Bohemoth are way too confrontational with one another right now to win any Tag Titles. The Love Doctors are being brought back to drop the titles and sink back into obscurity. X-Division Four-Way Dance Dance Dragon vs. El Hipérbole de Internet (formerly Sean Bryant) vs. "Het Ironische Wonder" Alex Bryant vs. El Claraboya (formerly Nate Tethers) I'm going to guess Dance Dance Dragon because that's the only guy in this match I can really distinguish from the other three. No Holds Barred Thunderkid vs. Reject I'm going to say Thunderkid gets revenge from last month. OAOAST Tag Team Title Match The Heavenly Rockers © vs. The Sooner Bruisers The Heavenly Rockers aren't ready to drop the straps yet. Drek Stone vs. Tony Brannigan I'll let you know as soon as I start writing it! Run For The Gold II 24/7 Title Match Alix Maria Spezia © vs. Leon Rodez vs. Biff Atlas vs. Flex Phillips vs. The Marv vs. Hell Mel I want to discount the last four combatants in the match but, knowing Patty and KC, they'll wind up having one of them win. I'm going to say this match ends in a swerve. If not -- Alix retains. Scotty Static, Johnny Jax and Jamie O'Hara vs. Zack Malibu, ??? and ??? Zack Malibu, ???, and ??? will win because it's way too anti-climactic to have two new guys debut in a match and have them immediately lose. Interpromotional Match PRL vs. AJ Flaire AJ Flaire is retired! His spine was broken by Drek Stone. So he better come into the ring in a wheelchair and be easy pickings for PRL to pick up the win,. Submission Match Hoff vs. Dan Black Oh, damn me and my inside information. OAOAST World Championship Match Alfdogg © vs. Peter Knight vs. Brock Ausstin Alfdogg will retain. He's trying harder and harder to surpass his history-making WDW Title reign. That's easier said than done though.

    WON Notes

    It seems if they DID go through with the Flair plan -- which I personally don't think will happen. It was speculation from Meltzer and nothing more -- it wouldn't be in the cards for Van Dam to win the title. RVD/Flair certainly doesn't sound like a match they would use to headline Vengeance when they have HHH/Flair and Cena/Flair available. And if Flair did go over, it wouldn't make him look any more impressive for beating a guy that, at that point, would have held the belt for about two weeks. If they run with Flair in the Main Event at Vengeance, they won't have Van Dam win the belt. Or vice-versa. If Van Dam wins the belt at One Night Stand, he won't fight Flair at Vengeance. No matter which way you look at the match, it would not work out logically.
  20. Yeah, it didn't seem derogatory towards Trish at all. She knows what she's doing in the ring and she probably has a fair amount of pull with the creative team as the main woman's wrestler, so she'll make sure you get 15 minutes with her in the ring. And I'm not crying over the Right-to-Censor gimmick being dropped either.

    Charlie Sheen

    Well apparently, he favored underage porn and gay porn at times too. Is that a shocker for Charlie Sheen? Maybe. http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/0421061sheen1.html Estranged Wife: Charlie Sheen One Scary Guy Drugs, hookers, threats, gambling, gay porn allegedly on actor's plate In a searing court attack on Charlie Sheen, actress Denise Richards has alleged that her estranged husband is unstable, irrational, addicted to gambling, patronizes prostitutes, and visits pornographic web sites featuring girls who appear underage. In a remarkable sworn declaration filed today in Los Angeles Superior Court, Richards also alleges that Sheen assaulted her and threatened her life during a December 30 incident at her Los Angeles home. Richard claims that an enraged Sheen--who was over for a visit with the couple's two children--told her she was "fucking with the wrong guy" and called her a series of vulgar names in front of the children. The actor, Richards said, then shoved her to the ground and screamed, "I hope you f--king die, bitch." As Richards tells it, Sheen was angry because she had told her divorce attorney about discovering details of Sheen's porn-surfing practices. Richards's declaration, filed in support of her request for a restraining order against Sheen, contends that Sheen "belonged" to "disturbing" sites "which promoted very young girls, who looked underage to me with pigtails, braces, and no pubic hair performing oral sex with each other." Other sites visited by Sheen, Richards alleges, involved "gay pornography also involving very young men who also did not look like adults." Richards added that she also discovered that Sheen "belonged to several sex search type sites" on which he "looked for women to have sex with." His online profile, Richards noted, included a photo of "his erect penis." The Richards evisceration also portrays Sheen as a lousy father who urged her to abort their first child. And, when she was about to give birth to their second child via a C-section, Sheen's attention was "diverted to his pager for the results of his betting." (17 pages)

    WON Notes

    Well, I'm shocked that Meltzer is advocating Flair fighting for the title at Vengeance -- not just fighting for the belt but WINNING it. I don't care if the PPV is in Charlotte. Flair wrestling for the title and winning it in the Main Event is counterproductive and senseless. I don't see how they would ever expect to get this ECW brand off the ground as something worth watching if Van Dam doesn't win the Heavyweight title at One Night Stand. To think of having Cena walk into One Night Stand as the champion and retain...they're treading on thin ice in really alienating a good percentage of their fan base.
