    That's all he needs to do. The match will probably be less than 15 minutes, so it's not like you need more than one or two big spots per person. Besides, that would still be more than Flair's gonna give us.

    I think SD should've put MNM and Burchill in the MITB match.

    You don't typically do a backflip with an exploder suplex. Just watch SD this week and you'll see. And Henry DOES have a promo people.

    He cuts a promo saying he won't be another victim to UT at Mania. He wears a suit and has a fancy ring set-up for it. His mic crapped out on him, so it'll have to be edited for the final show, I'm sure.

    Oh, and this is wrong. The face team won when Matt hit the TOF on Mercury.

    Live Smackdown Spoilers

    Well, I just got back from the show, and it was way better than Raw. The finish to the Mexicools match needs to be seen. Super Crazy hits a top rope C4 on Kash. UT/Henry was the dark ME, I guess. I thought it was actually on the show because Cole and Tazz were still out there. UT won with the chokeslam if anyone cares.

    This week in the NBA

    The Nets should get a big boost from this, but I don't think it affects anything credibility wise for the Suns or Nash. Still, that was the off-night of all off-nights though. When was the last time the Suns were held under 80?

    Ross to Call Raw Matches at Mania

    Styles really is getting the raw end of the deal here, so to speak. He hasn't been spectacular on commentary, but he certainly isn't the reason the Raw announce team has been garbage since JR left. The reasons for that would be (A) Coach and (B) Making Lawler a face. If Styles isn't supposed to "just call the moves" yet the face/heel dynamic is covered by the other guys (albeit poorly), then what the hell is Styles supposed to do out there? He's getting scapegoated in a situation where his hands are tied.

    Odds For Wrestlemania 22

    Didn't TSM use to do gambling threads for ppvs, with imaginary money? Whatever happened to those?

    The Suns scored just 72 points? Did the Suns and Rockets trade rosters for a night?

    College Hoops: The Regionals

    I'd say more people will now after they beat UConn. Mason doesn't have the size to compete with Horford and Noah down low... BUT... I'm sure there's been "I don't think Mason has the ______ to compete with _______" for every game they've played so far. GMU is fast, can shoot the 3, and most importantly, they believe in themselves. I'm sticking with Florida, but I don't expect Mason to roll over and die, and I won't be surprised if they win.
  13. As long as he stays on SD, I think he's safe. SD has quietly morphed into the workrate show over the last few months. The only bad wrestler in the limelight on that show is Mark Henry, and he'll be gone soon enough, probably around the time Batista and Kennedy get back. Other than Henry, SD seems to be making an effort to showcase good workers and put on reasonable matches every week. Finlay is a great addition to the midcard, and I bet he gets a US title program with Benoit over the summer.

    College Hoops: The Regionals

    Actually, I would prefer a LSU/UF final game. I wanna see Horford and Noah go against Thomas and Big Baby.

    College Hoops: The Regionals

    While I'm still rooting for Florida, I wouldn't mind if any of the remaining teams won it all now. Like most, I'm glad Duke and UConn are gone. Never got the hate for Gonzaga... They never do well in the tourney. Either way, we have a nice, fresh F4.

    Who's the ugliest player in basketball history?

    Can't believe I forgot to mention Chris Kaman... Guy looks like a damn neanderthal.
  17. I never really doubted that he could be good, but he certainly passed my expectations. He's been a godsend to a SD midcard that's sustained way too many injuries the past year. If only they'd push Regal now... Finlay vs. Rey is the tv MOTY, but not the overall MOTY. Let's not forget Angle/UT at NWO too quickly...

    SD non-spoilers

    Man, I don't know why that Benoit/Regal match got cut so short. You couldn't have taken time from Randy's pointless and heatless opening promo, or the Mark Henry match? Those face chops were nasty. I also loved the Finlay/Mysterio match. Good stuff from both guys. I especially liked Finlay kicking Rey under the apron, and Rey busting out the super stiff face kick. And I don't care what anyone says about Orton, that finishing spot was super cool. The BR was fun, the ME was kinda there, but at least they're acknowledging Kurt and Rey are in the WM match. Again, solid stuff from SD. Finlay/Rey is my new TV MOTY so far. The rest was just kinda there, but nothing bad. Only questionable thing was Orton's opening promo, but whatever. SD owns Raw in every way. And I'll keep saying that until people catch on. It's a damn shame Raw gets double digit pages every week, and SD gets maybe 4 combined with spoiler/live discussion. You people are missing a lot.

    2006 NFL Off-Season

    Has anyone commented on Keyshawn signing with the Panthers yet? I think that's a good pick up and will finally take some pressure off Steve Smith.

    Mickie James vs. Trish Stratus

    Foley's feud with Edge is the same damn thing as his feud with Orton, which was a poor man's version of his feud with HHH.

    Mickie James vs. Trish Stratus

    To be fair, most of the what we've seen in the last 6 months in the women's division has been centered around Ashley wrestling.

    Yeah, pretty much.

    Mickie James vs. Trish Stratus

    As far as Mania feuds go, this one certainly is the best. Mickie James is a top 3 character on Raw. I think Lashley/Finlay is a great feud too. It's simple but effective. I'm a bit surprised they're not having a No DQ blowoff match at Mania, but I suppose that would be overkill since there are 5 No DQ matches already (MITB, Casket, Vince/Shawn, Edge/Foley, SD 3-way). Oh well, they can save it for the next SD only ppv.

    Sounds like a good show. No MNM title defense hurts my fantasy, though.

    Bret Hart's legacy

    Personally, I find Bret a little overrated (especially by himself), but he was one of the lone bright spots in mid-90's, which was a rather dull time for the WWF. The best thing he did was act as a stepping stone for the rise of Steve Austin. I think his legacy will be similar to that of Flair, on a smaller scale. People will generally agree he's one of the greats, but later on his work will be analyzed more critically leading to a more realistic perception.
