Ernie's two cents on the how the feud is going? Let me put it this way... after the HHH/Jericho disaster going into WM X8, my standards have been very low... so I think the Angle/Guerrero storyline is going on just fine...

I know he's in the open, but if I had my way he wouldn't be. That justifies my list.

Foley probably figures that WWE is going to push Randy Orton regardless of the consequences, so he probably feels an obligation to help them out.

If it were up to me the show would go something like this: RVD and Booker T vs La Resistance Cruiserweight Open Chavo Guerrero vs Winner of CW Open A.P.A. vs WGTT vs Bashams vs 2 Cool John Cena vs Big Show Chris Jericho vs Christian Kane vs Undertaker Evening Gown Match Randy Orton and Batista vs The Rock and Mick Foley Brock Lesnar vs Goldberg HHH vs Chris Benoit vs Shawn Michaels Women's Title Match Eddie Guerrero vs Kurt Angle

I like that list, it makes me laugh.

Chris Benoit. Hands down. It has come to a point where destiny cannot allow anyone but Benoit to win.

This has made me a happy guy.

I was keeping track of each title reign in the game, but I accidently cleared the note pad one day and I was too lazy to recopy it. So just to catch you up to speed with the title histories in my game, here are lists of the last ten title holders for each championship: WWF Championship: Kurt Angle (Vengeance 03, like in real life) Eddie Guerrero 11/30/03 Kurt Angle 3/21/04 Shelton Benjamin 5/16/04 Rob Van Dam 7/18/04 AJ Styles 3/27/05 Chad Collyer 3/26/06 Matt Hardy 5/14/06 Chad Collyer 6/08/06 Rhyno 7/16/06 World Heaveyweight Champion: Goldberg 10/27/03 Rhyno 11/30/03 Chris Jericho 3/21/04 CM Punk 8/30/04 Eddie Guerrero 1/25/05 CM Punk 3/27/05 Raven 8/29/05 Triple H 9/25/05 CM Punk 1/25/06 Chris Benoit 6/27/06 IC Champion: Shawn Michaels 4/11/04 John Cena 6/27/04 Lance Storm 7/05/04 Julio Dinero 9/28/04 Rico 11/22/04 Lance Storm 1/10/05 John Cena 5/30/05 Tommy Dreamer 8/15/05 Batista 12/18/05 Tommy Dreamer 2/20/06 United States Championship: AJ Styles 7/18/04 Rey Mysterio 12/09/04 AJ Styles 12/16/04 Johnny Stamboli 3/03/05 Matt Hardy 3/27/05 Paul London 7/24/05 Sean O'Haire 1/26/06 Low Ki 3/26/06 Paul London 5/14/06 Rodney Mack 7/16/06 World Tag Team Championship: Lance Storm and Christian 3/21/04 Rosey and The Hurricane 4/11/04 Ken Shamrock and Simond Diamond 8/29/04 Randy Orton and Frank Shamrock 11/14/04 Rhyno and John Cena 12/05/04 Lance Storm and Justin Credible 9/12/05 Ken Shamrock and Simon Diamond 1/25/06 Shane Helms and Shannon Moore 3/27/06 Test and Christian 5/22/06 Shane Helms and Shannon Moore 6/27/06 WWF Tag Team Championship: Rey Mysterio and Billy Kidman 7/29/04 Charlie Haas and Shelton Benjamin 11/11/04 Spanky and Funaki 12/16/04 Sean O'Haire and Kanyon 2/10/05 Rey Mysterio and Billy Kidman 3/27/05 Doug and Danny Basham 7/14/05 Jimmy Rave and Nova 12/01/05 Doug and Danny Basham 12/08/05 Charlie Haas and Shelton Benjamin 3/27/06 Doug and Danny Basham 7/16/06 WWF Hardcore Championship: Tommy Dreamer (First new champ) 12/5/04 Test 1/17/05 Bubba Ray Dudley 2/25/05 Rhyno 2/28/05 Jerry Lynn 3/27/05 Triple H 5/16/05 Raven 5/30/05 Kid Romeo 7/25/05 Vacated 5/18/06 Frank Shamrock 6/27/06 WWF Cruiserweight Championship Shannon Moore 8/29/04 Paul London 10/07/04 Matt Hardy 10/21/04 Shannon Moore 10/31/04 Chavo Guerrero 2/03/05 Shannon Moore 2/27/05 Jamie Noble 8/29/05 Taka Michinoku 12/08/05 Kid Kash 5/14/06 Frankie Kazarian 7/16/06 WWF Womens Championship: Trish Stratus 3/22/04 Jazz 4/11/04 Taylor Matheny 9/23/04 Victoria 1/03/05 Ivory 5/02/05 Gail Kim 9/25/05 Taylor Matheny 12/18/05 Gail Kim 1/25/06 Taylor Matheny 3/06/06 Trish Stratus 6/27/06

Thanks for the feedback. Expect another update to appear either on monday or tuesday.

I've reached 2006 in my current WWE game and I want to do a diary, but I don't want to start over. I'm going to gradually post the background info and then get the diary going. Updates probably won't be as consistent as they should be, I am a college student with a part time job.I will do my best though, I hope you enjoy this. I just ask to give it some time and I promise I will make this interesting. The Story So Far... Ernie Rowe took over as booker of WWE in the late summer of 2003. He made some huge talent raids on other companies, and signed AJ Styles, Raven, Alexis Laree, Julio Dinero, CM Punk, Ken Shamrock, and Simon Diamond to long term contracts. However, not too long later, Linda McMahon made a very foolish investment that put the WWE in bankrupcy. The superstars all became very frightened and many stars including Undertaker, Faarooq, Bradshaw, Maven, Rikishi, Chris Nowinski, Big Show, Mark Henry, and Scott Steiner all jumped ship. Chris Jericho became upset with the new booker and refused to renegotiate his contract that would end within the next two years. Meanwhile, Rowe began pushing his new talent. Ken Shamrock made a great first impression on Raw, but politics had him squashed by Triple H within weeks of his debut. As a result, Shamrock turned heel and joined Evolution. During this time, Batista was released from his contract due to his failure to improve, and Simon Diamond debuted and joined Evolution. Raven, CM Punk, Julio Dinero, and Alexis Laree all debuted as the New Flock, and had an all out war with Evolution that lasted for many months. The current generation of main eventers did not get along very well with Rowe. Many of them were not happy with how the roster split was going and lost morale for being stuck on one show per week. This lead to Kurt Angle, Eddie Guerrero, Chris Benoit, John Cena, Brock Lesnar, and the part-time Rock becoming angry and not wanting to do their jobs properly. Rowe did everything he could to please the top stars. He even converted the Sunday Night Heat show into a two hour program to simply display the talent. This did not help matters any, and the stars refused to take orders from Rowe. Wrestlemania XX turned into a disaster of sorts for Rowe. He had signed Chris Benoit to face Brock Lesnar for the United States Championship as the second main event (taking place after the Raw main event that had Raw Champion Rhyno defending against Chris Jericho and CM Punk). Lesnar half-assed the match and was released immediatly after the show by Rowe. Rowe stated that "There are hundreds of workers out there who would have killed to have been in Brock Lesnar's spot that night, and they would not have f***ed it up." Benoit's morale was suffering as well. WWE and Benoit had a mutual seperation, but Benoit returned refreshed and ready to work a few years later. Kurt Angle won the WWE Championship from Eddie Guerrero at Wrestlemania XX as well, in another match that failed to live up to expectations due to Guerrero and Angle both upset with the direction of the company. Rowe figured that a WWE Championship reign would help Angle cheer up. It didn't work. For the 2004 Judgment Day PPV, Rowe booked Kurt Angle to defend his title against Shelton Benjamin. Rowe's logic was that Angle was a good enough of a draw to defend against a midcarder, and that by having a midcarder receive a title shot on a PPV would push the idea that "anything can happen in the WWE." However, Angle's attitude was reaching new lows. On the day of the PPV, Rowe made some huge changes to the main event. To prove a point, Rowe booked Benjamin to win the championship from Angle. Within weeks, Kurt Angle left WWE. Eddie Guerrero stuck around for about another year. He was moved to Raw, and was happy for a while, even became the World Heaveyweight Champion. However, Guerrero's in ring skills were on the decline from his age and he was impossible to please. A few months after Wrestlemania XXI, Eddie Guerrero left WWE. John Cena also left after morale problems that lasted for over a year. Cena never won any world titles, but he did headline Wrestlemania XXI in the fatal four way match that also included CM Punk, Eddie Guerrero, and Randy Orton.

I got my check and I marked out. My dad and I were laughing over it, I had filled the thingy out for it so long ago that I had completely forgot.

That is upsetting news. I've been watching some of my older tapes and such, and I'm realizing how much I miss Edge. He brings a lot to the table and I hope he gets a nice push when he returns.

Exactly, Stephanie seemed to take pride in that storyline with her father. I can imagine Stephanie and Vince sitting on a porch somewhere making disgusting jokes and then thinking the jokes would make good angles.

If Hogan is not at Wrestlemania XX, I will be just fine. Keep in mind, if he is at the event, than it's likely that he will stick around for a few months to do some sort of angle. Do you really want to have to spend twenty minutes of every Smackdown watching him make his entrance, get a rediculously long pop, and then have some heel come out and talk about how he's going to "kill Hulkamania!" I'd rather not.

Also keep in mind that Stephanie plays a huge role in the creative process, some of this shit could be her doing as well.

Didn't Hardcore Holly get arrested as well? I don't know, I lose track. It's really overdone though. Do even the marks who buy into the storylines leave thinking "That damn heel, getting the face arrested... boo!"

This really sounds like it's going to kick tremendous levels of ass. However, the Catwoman outfit for Halle Berry in that other movie makes me scared.

I saw most of Matchstick Men today. Far better movie than I was expecting, but considering the director and cast, I should not have been surprised.

Hehe, why was everyone mad? I would have paid good money for that sight

Any time a punk band covers a ballad. Anything that comes out of Britney Spear's mouth.

I humbly apologize for enjoying those matches, I hope i haven't offended anyone.

Those logos just made my night
