Why do I have this gnawing suspicious that this is a swerve between Banky and RoyalBlue to stir up shit and get a riise out of this board (as fun and interesting as the last one was) ?

I get....machinery.

Never speak again of the 90's movie version of Godzilla. It should be purged until no trace of our memory of it remains.

Political Compass Test: Economic Left/Right: -2.25 Libertarian/Authoritarian: -2.56 Though alot of the questions I could have gone either way.

Something tells me he thinks that getting banned was all just part of his plan all along.

Good, I'm glad PETA is being exposed as the radical terrorist organization that it is. A pity only Fox is portraying them as such. On an unrelated note, but in reply to an earlier post: Japan is NOT > than America; all Japan has going for it are cool electronics and anime, socially and culturally they are far behind the rest of the democratic industrialized world. A Japanese man has a better chance of getting a job in America than an American has getting a job in Japan.

OMG Dames made a death threat! Ban plz! Yo know, I couldn't tell if that uneasy expression he (Jericho) had after being told of the ppv match he's going to be in was because he feels bad storyline wise or if he's legitimately groaning like the rest of us. I think your last statement hit the nail right on the head: The desperately need to develop new stars and can't be turning back to the Rock or Foley to get the fans involved. I could argue that they are trying to create new stars, but so far none of them have really broken through yet.

I'd love to see a student try to punk him out.

Actually no, he hasn't blown the chances. They've been taken away from him by bullshit Dusty-style finishes that favoured the faces Rock and Austin because Benoit made them look bad.

Orchid is very much a small "L" lliberal, so I don't see how MacKay's decision to merge with the Alliance is a betrayal of his party or of conservative values.

If a band comprised of all guys actually writes their own lyrics and performs their own songs does that still qualify them as a boy band? Just curious as to what the boy band criteria is.

And people ask why HHH and others have such a low opinion of internet marks (and Jericho was right; we are ALL marks) when they have to invent things to bitch about. Why watch the product if nothing they ever do will be found enjoyable? Let's see... Brock has been nothing BUT impressive since his debut, and he's showed beyond any doubt he can wrestle a great match (and that wasn't a Benoit carry job we all saw), he certainly has more moves than a powerslam, but he's big, and in the smark world that means he automatically sucks. -roll eyes- Morgon sucks. Morgon is a rookie. Enough said. Batista is decent on the mic, something rarely found today, and his only problem is being injury prone, I haven't seen any 'Oh my god he sucks the cock' matches from him yet, I put his hate in the same column as Orton hate. Unwarranted as neither have done anything offensive. Noble is in a nice feud with Tajiri and is on the verge of a face turn or character change. Neither Tajiri or noble suck, by the way.

You know,I was about to say that I was hoping Triple H would make the trip to Iraq, but for entirely different reasons. Interpret that however you wish. -Patrick This board would be saying "OMG HHH is holding down the iraqis!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!~"

They would get cheered for their anti-American stance, but would get booed the moment they spoke, since La Resistance are French Canadian, and Quebecois french is very different from the French spoken in France, it's not just a difference in accents it's like they speak different languages. I spoke with someone from France and she expressed disdain for the Quebec style of French; I don't know if she was in the majority, but she might just be.

If he was actually giving ideas to young talent and trying to market them somehow, I honestly don't see how it could be worse. Even the filler shows like HEAT carried over actual feuds during the start of it's run, and that was due to Russo creating enough characters for people to love and hate. The writing team now has given the fans nothing to distinctly cheer or boo for, thereby leaving them in apathy. I think also that the writers believe that the fans do not want clearcut faces and heels, especially in the light of anti-heroes and tweeners like Austin, Rock, etc. Vince McMahon himself stated that he believes the fans find the straight up good guy to be dull and boring. Oh, Russo did some good things, but he will always be remembered for the horrible decisions he made and it is his name that is most closely associated with the demise of WCW.

HBK? Don't make me laugh

Benoit and Brock is definately a MOTYC for 2003. That's all I have to say.

Yeah I gotta say I love the new and improved F-5; I hope he keeps using it because it just looks nasty. Also I hope Brock keeps breaking out more of the submission moves in his matches, it shows everyone that he has many many ways to win the match.

No it's not, he's been offered a contract, not a main event spot.

Dreamer is the 'everyman' champion getting his ass kicked but always coming back for more, as someone above stated. Foley does all that too, he just does it alot better. And this thread should be moved to the wwe folder, and if this thread is worthy of intelligent debate and conversation, people will post replies to it. Spare me the argument of certain folders being populated by uber-smarks (HCD) and others merely by smarks (wwe)

I love how his accusers choose to stay anonymous and bitch that he will never amount to much. That may be true, but at least he is willing to try and learn and to improve. Oh, and he's nice, but so is Orton and from reading those two articles it clearly pays to NOT be respectful to anyone backstage, lest you be bitched about for some dirtsheet.

Damn right, I take the name of ABOBO in vain.

ABOBO does not rock, he sucks like every other gimmick.

I find it despicable these guys are using 9/11 as an excuse to cheat on and leave their wives. Fuck them, they're a disgrace to the people that died in those attacks.

I agree, excellent article. VKM does get more than his share of hate, he deserves alot of it, but he should get some praise from us for when he does good, which he does at times.
