Only The Strong Survive

I'd like to ask a uqestion about Here Comes The Pain, but don't want to start a new topic on it. Besides, it's really similar ot this question. 1. When you're outside of the ring, its possible to run onto the apron and stand in a position where you''ll be able to jump off and perform an attack. Can only certain wrestlers do this? How is it achieved? 2. When standing next to the ropes and your opponent is outside of the ring, how do you perform a move from inside the ring to outside the ring without running at the ropes?

Was the Unforgiven 2001 match really as bad as everyone makes it out to be?

Sorry Deon. All of your stuff will be sorely missed, friend.

I find it funny how they have yet to remove Goldberg's info/ bio from the Raw roster page on wwe.com. I mean, is it supposed to look like he's "on vacation" or something? Gayness.

D-X, NWO, Shawn Michaels, Triple H "My Time", Gangrel, Undertaker Ministry, Bret Hart, and Steve Austin, both original and Disturbed versions

He should go back to being a face and feud with Benoit... Then again, if he continues to be in such poor shape he's been in since he joined WWE, I don't see any reason for him to still have a contract since the casual fans don't seem to care that much about him anymore

Is a feud between Edge and Triple H a one-hundred percent certainty at this point? I know within the next few months, things can go anywhere, but it doesn't seem logical that Edge is going to just automatically going to take that next step and feud with Triple H, unless they're continuing this "downfall of Evolution" storyline they've been working for the past couple of weeks. I really hope that this feud doesn't mean that Benoit will be losing the title to Triple H very soon (if it happens). Benoit is finally starting to come into his own both as a main event wrestler and as a champion, but the Edge/ HHH feud would most likely need the World Heavyweight title for a catalyst since our lovley WWE bookers have their heads up their asses.

So it's a combination of Confidential and the Rebound segments played during Raw and Smackdown... fucking lovely

I think that had something to do with the power failing during the original PPV. All of the matches that were on the second PPV were the ones that happened in the dark during the first pay-per-view, if memory serves me correctly. Yes, that is a rip-off for the live crowd, but maybe they honored tickets to the first show. Then again, they were at two different places so that seems unlikely as well.

Northeast Region Eddy Guerrero Northwest Region AJ Styles Southeast Region Brock Lesnar Southwest Region Chris Jericho

Wow... thanks for the clip. That'll never get old.

If anyone captures that little segment and is willing to share, that would be awesome.

Test and Steiner still have contracts?

The Cruiserweight title is treated as an afterthought on the show that's treated the same way. What we need on Smackdown! is solid wrestling, more appearences from Eddie (being the champion and all), and more feuds based around titles. No more b/s racist, "he's doesn't pay taxes and neither do any of our viewers" angles, and more honest-to-goodness rivalries over belts. Give Jindrak some gimmick, ANYTHING to give him something more than his current angry wrestler persona. The tag division is impossibly damaged so don't even go there. We need to focus more on what makes Smackdown! different from Raw: cruiserweights and wrestlers who are all on par with each other. The titles shoudl separate the divisions, but it's obvious that the mid-card and upper card are esentially one entity. On Raw, that's not the case, but if the focus is switched things have the possibility to be so much better.

I heard what Deon just said before. I think that that's just sad...

I'm guessing he was still employed by WWE when that was written considering there's no mention of his release.

As much as i hate to say it, maybe having Triple H on Smackdown! wouldn't have been such a bad idea. I am starting to wonder about Smackdown! being the better show of the two. Yes, it's true that's it treated second-rate, and thusly is left with only what is has, but having a bit of star power on there, even if it involves the whole roster getting buried by politics, is better than what little they have now.

What's the matter with Pantera?

Which match are we talking about here? (I didn't watch much of the crap that was the WWE/F/ NWO angle)

So they could get Booker T and the Dudleyz over to Smackdown! without having to waste trades and so they could show the earthshaking trades of Teddy Long and Renee Dupree on television.

I think that Kurt Angle censoring all kind of stuff would get boring kind of quickly, but yeah, I agree with taking a "wait-and-see" approach to the whole thing. Let's see a few more Smackdown! episodes before we give a yay or nay to Kurt.

Steiners

Was gonna post the news from wwe.com but it was already here... This is friggin nuts!!! That puts the loser team of Booker/ RVD back together... And now Benoit is definitely losing the title at Backlash...

It sucks that the people in front of you have to be such jerks about their seats. Then again, considerate people are very very very hard to find... Plus you're in NYC, so I guess you can forget about that...

I must have misread that. It seems like you are saying that Holly deserved that push. No, I don't think Holly deserved that push in any form at all. He should be jobbed out in my opinion, but my point was that, if you stick around long enough, you'll get back to some point where you are needed again, if you're saying that he wasn't needed. Either way, it's still a lame thing to do. If they let Taker do what Taker *supposedly* wanted to do, he might not have had the opportunity to come back later. What was he going to? Was he going to get buried alive? Crucified? Put in a casket?
