I think the Giant was actually a face in mid 96. He feuded with the Horsemen and the NWO before he joined them.

Smackdown: When Shelton and Charlie were feuding with Eddie and Chavo/Tajiri. Raw: I guess when Booker and Goldust had them.

That actually makes sense because all the SD women ever did were bikini contests and "random liquid" matches. I haven't noticed any difference in the language, though. Everyone on Raw still says ass, damn, and hell (JR says them as much as anyone).

-Rikishi and Scotty vs Dudley Boyz - Great. Two teams that haven't changed their gimmick since 2000. I bet $500 it's boring. -Chavo Guerrero vs. Jamie Noble - Should be good. Unfortunately, I only see it getting about 2 minutes. -John Cena vs. Danny Basham - This could be Cena's 3rd squash in as many weeks. -Booker T and RVD vs. Big Show and Charlie Haas - Ok, since when is Booker a face? They probably do the predictable turn on RVD. -Renee Dupree vs. Orlando Jordan - *sigh of boredom/disgust* -Teddy Long vs. Spike Dudley - Terrible, just terrible. -Great American Award ceremony - Well if it passes -*** it is officially better than last week's main event promo. I won't lie and say I'm not gonna watch, but damn, that is one ugly looking card.

You'll need to refresh my memory on that one. I thought Rey was protesting against the LWO and never joined. I seem to remember Eddie offering Rey a shirt, but Rey threw it down.

Good God almighty! That has to be the most heinous picture of Nidia ever. No one would buy a magazine with that cover.

The SD card doesn't look very exciting. At all.

This is just an "I'm bored" topic. What are the funniest examples of WWE trying to avoid certain terms or describe certain events in favor of more family friendly versions? EX: Hospital = Medical Facility, Violence = Physicality (I know this one isn't from WWE, but someone will probably mention it anyway): Tank Abbott holding a knife to Big Al's throat and Tony Schiavone saying that Tank "was going to cut Al's beard." Post away.

Here's another from the "Who ran over Steve Austin" angle: JR would never say "murder," but "vehicular homocide." He also never said the person who was responsible was out to "kill" Steve, but rather "to end his career and livelyhood."

The Wrestlemania 17 triple threat match. There were so many funny moments... Big Show is about to chokeslam Kane in the backstage area and, for no apparent reason, yells "Right here on the floor! AAAAAAAAHHHH!" Kane driving a golf cart Big Show not being able to lock the fenced off area Another subtle moment I liked was Show pinning Essa Rios on a wall during a series of backstage title changes. Shane falling off the Titan tron at Summer Slam 2000 (Hey, it was cool the first time)

I hate to be repetitive, but I vote for Sasaki.

This isn't a WWE question, but I figured this was the best to place to put it... Now, I don't follow the lesser feds at all, but for my own personal knowledge I would like to know where TNA and ROH are based. Thanks in advance.

I'm in favor of just leaving the teams the way they are. Cole and Tazz have really developed some good chemistry. Cole brings the generic pbp and emotion while Tazz brings the knowledge and jokes. I don't see Ross and Lawler going anywhere due to seniority. I liked the Ross/Heyman team, but I doubt they'll work togeher again since they don't like each other. WWE should be offering Mike Tenay a huge money deal or bringing up that new Todd guy who sounds like he actually knows what he's doing. I would love to see JR/Tazz and Tenay/Heyman announcing the shows.

1. Kurt Angle 2. Eddie Guerrero 3. Chris Benoit 4. Shelton Benjamin 5. Chavo Guerrero 6. Shawn Michaels 7. Chris Jericho 8. HHH 9. Booker T 10. RVD

I don't like the idea of RVD moving to SD, at least not yet. Booker and RVD are pretty over as a team. While most people hate the idea of those two being stuck in the midcard, it's not like either of them will be getting a singles push any time soon. RVD leaving = Booker and RVD dropping the titles. That means either: a. Dudleys win the belts for the 259th time b. Jindrak/Cade get the titles c. La Res gets another failed run When letter 'b' seems like the best option of the 3, it's probably best to not rush anything.

Wow, that's the second time A-Train has jobbed to Bob's dropkick (He also did it during the T & A days, I think). Not that I care about either guy, but this isn't the 70's. Why not use the Alabama Slam?

How about when Curt Hennig was cutting a promo during his NWO days, and a fan threw a full drink at him and hit him in the back of the head?

My favorite part of the "new style" is more mat wrestling sequences to open matches. It used to be that only matches between Benoit and Angle opened with an exchange of holds while everyone else just punched and kicked away. Now more and more wrestlers are starting to "feel each other out" at the start of a match. Unfortunately, it has led to an increase in rest holds. It also features more "face nearly escapes the hold, but heel puts it back on for 2 more minutes" spots. Now, I'm not just singling him out, but Randy Orton is especially guilty of aforementioned spot.

Wasn't Eddie a face when he did that? And Deon: No, Jericho never won a match with his cocky pin. Even the lowest jobbers would kick out of it. Some more: Edge and Christian 5-second poses (namely the "Jug Band" and "Bitch-lanta Braves") Edge ripping Billy Gunn after he won KOTR Austin beating JR and Mitchell Cole

Angle/Austin 01 Angle/Benoit 01, 02-03 HHH/Foley 00 HHH/Michaels 03-04 TWGTT/Los Guerreros 03 Benoit and Angle/Edge and Mysterio 02

Why is the APA even on there? I thought Faarooq was injured because he hasn't been on tv in a while. I can only hope Too Cool V. 2 are only transitional champs to get the belts on TWGTT or the Japanese Mafia.

It's not big, but I always liked Jericho's pin where puts one foot on his opponent's chest, flexes, and yells "Come on, baby!"

Was this the Rey Mysterio tossing incident?

I don't think the Kasay should be blamed for the loss. Without him, the Panthers wouldn't even be in the SB because they would have lost about 7 more games in the regular season. Great game all around, but the commercials were painfully unfunny and the Truth/Anti-drug ones were atrocious, save for the glass-shard popsicles which may be the best Truth commercial ever. Like that's hard to accomplish.

I might be in the minority here, but I can't stand regular season NCAA basketball. Often times, one team just slaughters another and the extended shot clock slows the game down too much. Women's basketball goes without saying. Actually, apply that to women's anything. Soccer is also boring to watch.
