Enigma

I wonder how WWE agent Ricky Steamboat felt watching HHH completely bolt on the show he was majorly written in because his wife was having a baby, yet when he asked for some time off in the future for his wife, he was ordered to job the IC Title to the Honky Tonk Man and then got fired?

Stephanie was smoking hot during her Alliance days. She started to drop off a little when she was with Jericho, but then fell off completely when she started as Smackdown GM.

Stephanie McMahon gave birth to Aurora Rose LeVeque, an 8-pound, 7-ounce baby girl. Both mother and daughter are doing fine. Husband, however, is attempting to bang Steph again right now to get to slop out a boy and is currently ironing out booking plans for daughter Aurora to be the charter member of the HHH Kiss My Ass club at Wrestlemania 44.

That would be true if it wasn't Big Show and it was actually somebody that wasn't a WWE product like Tommy Dreamer or The Sandman or even Rob Van Dam. But it's Big Show, so it doesn't make a bit of difference.

Back to normal? July 25, 2006 This week, ECW on Sci Fi returns to its regular time of 10/9 CT. In the main event, Big Show will defend the ECW World Championship against RAW's Big Red Monster, Kane, in an Extreme Rules Match. Big Show has had his troubles of late with Kane's brother Undertaker, but he's no stranger to the Big Red Monster either. Just four months ago, Kane & Big Show were World Tag Team Champions on RAW. After losing the gold, however, the two were at each other's throats for several weeks. Now, they will collide with the ECW World Championship on the line. Which 7-footer will walk out of Detroit with the gold? Last week, Tommy Dreamer once again tried to confront Paul Heyman about his recent actions, telling Paul that he owed the locker room an explanation. Instead of that, however, Dreamer received a Kiss of Death before being brutally attacked by Test. In the past, the "Kiss of Death" has led to the end of its recipients. In Biblical terms, Judas Iscariot gave Jesus Christ a Kiss of Death the night before Jesus was crucified. Also, in the movie The Godfather Part II, Michael Corleone plants a kiss on the lips of treasonous brother Fredo shortly before Fredo is executed. ECW.com tried to get comment from Paul Heyman, but the ECW representative is holding the contents of this week's show close to his vest. Wiill we see the next chapter in this bizarre saga? Find out Tuesday night at 10/9 CT on Sci Fi.

You know they are going to incorporate this into the DX storyline with Vince finding out that HHH is the father. Remember that totally random segment last fall right after they returned to USA Network where Vince was talking to HHH, where all of a sudden Vince says, "Oh by the way, I'd like to introduce you to my daughter Stephanie" and they stare at each other smiling for about 5 seconds? It was back when Steph briefly returned as a character, talking shit to Stone Cold Steve Austin. Bada bing.

Meltzer said Kash was getting suspended after tomorrow's Smackdown taping, but didn't say anything about Noble. Who...to...believe...

Do you think Triple H was scared of Pillow Pants?

I wonder if HHH's kid will grow up passionately hating wrestling like Lex Luger's did?

What? You mean like "Thank God that fucking bitch is dead and now maybe we can get some good television"? Stuff like that?

Dude, it's just a house show thing. The rule in WWE is if it happened on a house show and it isn't mentioned on TV, then it didn't happen.

We just got word from backstage at Raw that Stephanie McMahon has gone into labor. Vince McMahon and Triple H are said to be heading back to Connecticut to be with her, forcing massive changes to tonight's show. My guess is that Shane McMahon and Shawn Michaels will do the next angle in the feud between DX and The McMahons tonight, but that is just a guess. -- PWInsider 9:45pm EDIT Shortly after 9pm EDT on Monday night, Stephanie McMahon gave birth to Aurora Rose LeVeque, an 8-pound, 7-ounce baby girl. Both mother and daughter are doing fine.

How can we be really positive about anything in this company when shit like this happens? "Ric Flair taped what was called a great comeback promo against Mick Foley on 7/10 to air the next week, but it got nixed because Brian Gewirtz hated it due to Flair talking about wrestling history and Gewirtz had no idea what he was talking about."

ALL HAIL KING BOOKER! THE 6-TIME 6-TIME 6-TIME 6-TIME 6-TIME 6-TIME WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION

Well, if you had read the paragraph before the match listing... "The DVD set will include a comprehensive timeline with multimedia highlights from every title change."

John Cena vs. Triple H didn't have anywhere near the heat that The Rock vs. Hulk Hogan had. Anybody who thinks it came close is insane and should be put to sleep. You know who you are.

It was even worse at the time because Shane Douglas, Billy Kidman, Chris Kanyon, Rey Mysterio, and Konnan wanted releases as well. Imagine how hectic it was knowing that 9 of your top talents wanted out to possibly go to WWE?

The highest rating ECW on TNN got was a 1.3 at some point in early 2000.

I didn't witness the events surrounding Souled Out 2000 at the time, but wasn't that a very similar situation to this, as well as the political turmoil between Russo/Sullivan/Radicals? Hart and Jarrett were each taken from the show via concussions (Bret's from Goldberg's kick and waiting to get a check-up and Jarrett's from Russo's brain-fart of letting Jarrett work 3 matches in one night including a cage with Snuka). The main event was basically the remaining halfs of the two main events (Sid/Hart and Benoit/Jarrett). Since Benoit/Jarrett was supposed to be a Triple Threat Theatre (3 Matches, 3 stipulations), they turned it into Kidman vs The Revolution (Melenko, Wall and Saturn). Then you throw in the Russo and Radicalz bullshit. Nothing can touch this mess. Let's not forget the first match of the Triple Threat Theater, Kidman vs. Malenko (no ropes?) where if anyone touched the floor they lost. About two minutes in, Malenko rolled out to regroup...and the match was over. Don't forget that the Bret/Sid match was itself a replacement for Bret/Goldberg, after Goldberg lost a loser leaves town match with a limo window. The fact that Tank Abbot was booked to win the title on that show makes it the greatest booking nightmare in history. Thank God the monkeys in charge at WCW had the forsight to boot Vince Russo off the team when he told them he wanted Tank Abbott to win the title.

haha

Then why do you care? I hate it when people talk shit about things they don't even know about. I am so happy you are the social lite of the century. SD is a lot better than Raw in my eyes. This is my first post and you are the first person added to my ignore list. Thanks Oh no! bobrock29 does not approve of my views of his precious little wrestling show! I think I should go slit my wrists in sadness and be depressed on MySpace now that I don't have the approval of some body whose only 1 post on this message board was from somebody who got their shit in a row about me not approving of a wrestling show. I'm not shocked that someone like you has the free time to watch Smackdown every Friday. Guess I struck a nerve there, Melvin McNerdly.

Because if Bobby Lashley deserves it's own thread, this does. And plus, I didn't even see the thread when I created it. Give me a break. I haven't slept. Why don't you go advertise your awesome GAB thread in the Lashley thread, Mr. Look-At-Me-I-Create-Every-OAO-Thread-I'm-Awesome. And I took the matchlisting right off WWE.Com. I don't watch Smackdown. I have a lot better things to do on Friday night than watch a shitty wrestling show.

PWInsider Elite says that Bobby Lashley has been indefinitely suspended for violating the WWE wellness policy. With Kurt Angle being suspended and now Lashley, it really looks like they are serious about the policy, which is great.

It's on Meltzer's site. I wonder if WWE.Com will publicize Khali's removal before the show?

The story is all being tied together regarding WWE's decisions today. The shows (ECW house shows) were canceled because Vince McMahon made the call early in the day that Big Show will replace Great Khali on Sunday, against The Undertaker, in the Punjabi Prison match. Khali also has a diseased liver and is expected to be taken off the road. -- Dave Meltzer, www.wrestlingobserver.com This marks the third major change to a PPV that has already been dismantled with Mark Henry's severe knee injury and Bobby Lashley's wellness policy violation. I wonder if WWE will publicize the Khali removal before the show? The new, updated card is this: -- Rey Mysterio vs. King Booker for the World Heavyweight Championship -- Batista vs. Ken Kennedy -- The Undertaker vs. The Big Show in a Punjabi Prison Match -- Finlay vs. William Regal for the United States Championship -- Brian Kendrick & Paul London vs. Jamie Noble & Kid Kash for the Tag Team Championship -- Ashley Massaro vs. Jillian Hall vs. Kristal Marshall vs. Michelle McCool in a 4-Way Bra & Panties Match -- Greg Helms vs. ??????? for the Cruiserweight Championship Was it even worth $39.99 before? Heh.
