Huh?

Frankie's dead

I thought Snitsky used the pumphandle slam.

To be fair to Angle, the crowd last night was pretty bad. But yes, this feud doesn't look interesting at all. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> They seemed fine during the opening tag match. Having to witness freaking Tatanka and a glorified Heat match will do that to you.

I'm excited to be able to watch HNIC again but I'm still very angry about what happened. I don't think I'm going to go to any games.

So uhhh what is it?

Well that sucks. I was a big fan of both guys. Of course Toronto becomes the first team Neiwendyk played for where he didn't win a Cup

It's not a family movie though. I mean it's really raunchy and the whole movie is nothing but kids cursing. I think the problem is that a lot of people just didn't want to see Billy Bob do Bad Santa again. I thought the movie was hilarious though.

Yes it was nominated for- Best Actress in a Leading Role Nicole Kidman Best Cinematography Best Editing Best Makeup Best Sound and won Best Art Direction and Set Design.

Down with Love is awesome. I mean the whole movie is just fun to watch and come on- it has a cameo from Tony Randall! Except for the ending, which is a tad convoluted, it's a really funny movie.

The Penguins had oneof the best chances going into the lottery to get the #1 pick. It wasn't rigged.

Interesting trade. Colon was horrible in the pen, but did welll as a spot starter. Doesn't sound like Mnos did much in Richmond. Was hoping we'd get another outfielder but oh well.

He did Stealth before he won the Oscar

Because Vince has a massive hard on for JBL.

Where is the idea coming from that he carries this untarnished image of being a monster killer? Didn't he job his title to a spear followed by a delayed frog splash? Oh yeah, that unbeatable aura, the one that saw him jobbed out to Goldberg CLEAN in his last match? He didn't go out unbeatable, why should he come back in like that. BUILD IT UP. Right now he DOESN'T HAVE AN UNBEATABLE AURA, it was taken away, IT NEEDS TO BE BUILT UP FROM SCRATCH, which is why you can TAKE THE TIME TO DO IT and have the luxury of jobbing him early if you so choose. Does anyone here honestly think wins and losses are the most important thing in wrestling? Book it smart and you can get away with the jobs, and sorry to say HTQ, but any booker worth his salt could pull it off and draw MORE money than with your sorry excuse for a plotline because the fans might actually, you know, be entertained and surprised at times between point A and point B, plus you'll have more left over to draw more money with down the line. This isn't 1987 and it isn't Hogan/Andre. What's one or two jobs when he comes back in if he goes on a killer run after that? If a football team loses their first two games and then sweeps all the way to the championship are they not a dominant team? Do fans not care about that years super bowl if they lost to a non-playoff team early in the season? Hogwash! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Would you have jobbed Andre the Giant before Wrestlemania III? Your idea is stupid. People need to believe Brock is this unbeatable bad motherfucker that should not be messed with. Jobbing him just kills any aura he might have coming back. And jobbing to Eddy Guerrero? That was 18 months ago, it can be forgotten with the help of video packages showing Brock beating the shit out of everyonre. So Brock comes back, everyone is excited, the potential to draw $ is there.... and you job him to a 40 year old man who doesn't need the rub. Great.

But Houston had a 3-2 lead and a ton of momentum going into Game 6 and in Game 7, had Clemens pitching. So no, it wasn't a foregone conclusion.

It will take away his unbeatable aura. He's not unbeatable, if he well, can be beaten, Brock's first undefeated streak helped get him over. They're not meaningless if you do them right. But your idea sucks. A lot. Brock doing some jobs going into his match with Batista is the dumbest booking decision they can make. If Brock can be beat by Benoit or Taker or someone, why should I give him a chance against Big Dave? Brock and Big Dave both keep going over their opponents, slowly building to a Wrestlemania match and then boom- they collide. How hard is that to understand?
-
Hey- I agreed with you too HTQ.
-
Just because you don't like Batista, doesn't make it not a dream match. It's the WWE's two biggest badasses, still in their relative prime. who have beaten everyone and rarely looked weak finally colliding in a showdown to see who is the top dog in the WWE. That's a dream match. What is predictable usually works and makes money. Why should Brock be doing jobs before a big match with Batista? How will that make people want to see the match?
-
If Brock loses a few times then it's going to kill some of his aura. Brock cannot job under any circumstances. He can not cheat or win in screwjob fashion under any circumstance. Brock needs to be seen as a killer. If they job him to the Undertaker, then I give up.
