Enigma

Look out, MVP. Santino Marella is ballin close to out of control.

Well, I think Warrior could still do a full-on sprint. But that aisleway was short and worse, it split off to a complete right angle halfway through. The crowd also looked totally dead when he came out. I doubt that's inspiring to pump it up. He could probably still chug it down the WrestleMania VIII aisleway in front of 60,000. The only thing that really takes me out of it is his salt-and-pepper buzzcut. That's just not the Warrior.

Yes, heterosexual males enjoying tight-fitting clothing on very attractive females is totally out of the ordinary.

Thanks, WWE.Com.

I'll never forget watching him play Vader's WWF theme music on a guitar back one of the morning shows in 1997. That was pretty awesome.

He facially resembles Milton Bradley from major league baseball.

WCW did their first-ever internet-only broadcast of a house show in Los Angeles, CA on June 28, 1997. It was titled "WCW Saturday Nitro". It was a moderate success in terms of stability, mainly because no one knew about it until the last second. This was used as a test-run to do more of these and charge for them in the future. Here are the results: -- Juventud Guerrera, Damien, & Super Calo defeated Konnan, La Parka, & Villano IV -- Ultimo Dragon defeated Psicosis -- Eddie Guerrero defeated Dean Malenko -- The Steiner Brothers defeated Masahiro Chono & Buff Bagwell -- Syxx defeated Rey Mysterio Jr. -- Chris Jericho defeated Syxx to win the WCW Cruiserweight Title -- Roddy Piper defeated Ric Flair -- Diamond Dallas Page defeated Randy Savage -- Lex Luger & The Giant defeated Scott Hall & Kevin Nash by DQ WCW then went all out for it's next one on January 31, 1998. It was called "Boston Brawl". It was a big show because it was in WWF territory and Hulk Hogan never worked house shows. The show also featured Bret Hart's second-ever WCW match. Hosted by Mark Madden and Chad "Deli Boy" Damiani, Boston Brawl was a total failure in every way. WCW's website did not have nearly enough capacity to host the show. The show had a $9.95 price tag, but the URL was not protected in anyway so it was quickly spread around the internet. The broadcast went down within minutes and the chat room also struggled as well. They re-routed the broadcast to another address that was given to people in the chat room that quickly went down as well. Also, WCW failed to deliver two advertised matches as Rick Martel was unable to compete due to a knee injury and Curt Hennig no-showed. Everybody that paid for the show were issued refunds. The results: -- Bill Goldberg defeated Sgt. Buddy Lee Parker -- Chris Jericho defeated Dean Malenko -- Booker T. defeated V.K. Wallstreet (subbing for Rick Martel) -- Steve McMichael defeated Greg Valentine (subbing for Curt Hennig) -- The Steiner Brothers defeated Raven & Perry Saturn -- Chris Benoit defeated Eddie Guerrero -- Bret Hart defeated Ric Flair -- Diamond Dallas Page, Lex Luger, & Larry Zbyszko defeated Scott Hall, Kevin Nash, & Randy Savage -- Sting defeated Hollywood Hogan in a cage match WCW made three more attempts at a pay-per-listen event. The next one was on April 2, 1998 in Tampa, FL entitled "Malice at the Palace". The show also had a $9.95 price tag. -- Jim Duggan & Bubba the Love Sponge defeated the Texas Hangmen -- Juventud Guerrera & Kaz Hayashi defeated Psicosis & El Dandy -- Bill Goldberg defeated Jerry Flynn -- Ultimo Dragon defeated Chavo Guerrero, Jr. -- Diamond Dallas Page & Chris Benoit defeated Raven & Perry Saturn in a no DQ match -- Ric Flair defeated Curt Hennig -- Bret Hart defeated Brian Adams -- Sting defeated Hollywood Hogan in a cage match WCW "Profiles in Pain" from Charleston, SC on May 2, 1998 for $9.95. -- Ernest Miller defeated Yuji Nagata -- The Barbarian defeated Bobby Eaton -- Perry Saturn defeated Fit Finlay -- High Voltage defeated Kidman & Sick Boy -- Chris Benoit defeated Booker T. to win the WCW Television Title -- The Giant defeated Kevin Nash by DQ -- Diamond Dallas Page defeated Raven The final one was "L.A. Melee" on July 10, 1998 once again in Los Angeles, CA. This show was only $4.95 due to the severely low buyrates of the previously two shows. Of course, WCW didn't stop to think that maybe people didn't want to pay $10 for a radio broadcast of matches like The Barbarian vs. Bobby Eaton or matches involving local radio DJs. -- Booker T. defeated Fit Finlay -- Eddie Guerrero defeated Chavo Guerrero, Jr. -- Juventud Guerrera, Psicosis, & Ciclope defeated Damien, Villano IV, & Villano V -- Ultimo Dragon defeated Dean Malenko by countout -- Chris Jericho defeated Rey Mysterio, Jr. by DQ -- Konnan defeated Vincent -- Kevin Nash & Lex Luger defeated Bret Hart & The Giant by DQ -- Bill Goldberg defeated Curt Hennig -- Sting defeated Hollywood Hogan in a cage match

Yes, which is why I listed them.

The final tally RAW: -- Rey Mysterio -- CM Punk -- Michael Cole -- Batista -- Kane -- Jamie Noble -- Deuce -- Chuck Palumbo -- Matt Striker -- Layla -- Kofi Kingston SMACKDOWN: -- Jeff Hardy -- Jim Ross -- Umaga -- Mr. Kennedy -- Triple H -- Trevor Murdoch -- Big Daddy V -- DH Smith -- Brian Kendrick -- Maria -- Shelton Benjamin -- Carlito ECW: -- Matt Hardy -- Mark Henry -- Hornswaggle -- Super Crazy -- Finlay

I haven't been watching loads lately, just skimming through segments to see if they caught my eye. Maybe I've missed this build up, but why would Marty step in? And can't he only fight in his home state or something, or has that court order past? He wrestled Mr. Kennedy at the Raw15 show in Connecticut. Marty lives in Georgia.

Chris Jericho vs. Marty Jannetty.

Raw: 3.4.

Jim Ross posted a blog on his personal website saying that he didn't find out he was being moved to Smackdown until the announcement was made on television. Ross said he was not happy with the assignment change and contemplated retirement instead of starting his new assignment. He said after talking to his wife, he decided to man up and do the job asked of him. He promised to do the best he can with Mick Foley and not "phone it in". The move was explained to Ross as needing his voice when Smackdown moves to MyNetworkTV in the fall.

Lashley had to forefit his belt because he was feuding with McMahon and he used it as an excuse to yank it off Lashley. End of story.

Uh, ok....

Ted Dibiase Jr. looks like a young Bob Orton in the face.

I'd rather Designated Hitter Smith be the mystery partner and Cody to turn on Holly in the match rather than the above mentioned Russo crap.

Reminds me of Brian Lawler, Erik Watts, and David Flair in TNA in 2002.

WWE wanted permission from TNA to use Shane Douglas as well as Raven, Kid Kash (who quit TNA so he could attend the PPV), and Jerry Lynn for the original ECW One Night Stand in 2005.

No one burns a bridge in pro wrestling. See: Vince McMahon and Eric Bischoff.

Raw, Smackdown, and ECW now officially have TV-PG ratings.

They already tried to re-create Austin vs. McMahon with Cena and Bischoff in 2005. However, unlike Austin & McMahon, there was no real reason for them to feud and no one cared.

Wow, Punk made the poster.
