Jericho, Storm, and The Crippler Then the WWE should do a Jericho-Storm match on RAW and give them 10-15 minutes. It would showcase Storm, it would get them in the good graces of Hitman (you know, showing the ultimate respect for Stu), and it was give us a very good match. Stu Hart deserves a tribute video and a tribute match.

Perhaps they can get a "F*ck em up Maryland, f*ck em up" chant! Really though, Maryland won't touch them cause they don't want to lose the money they get from WWE live events. To them it's just another two grand they are making.

RIP Stu How many dungeon wrestlers are in the WWE? I know the Crippler but is that it? Cause I'd think the perfect send off and tribute would be a battle of two wrestlers he helped train.

Well, Maryland may hold the right to arrest them perhaps. I'm sure they have a law he is about to violate and since he doesn't seem to be phased by the fine, I'd go after him.

THANK YOU HOGAN! Now get TNA on TV and I'll be a Hogan fan. Back on topic Wasn't one of the main reasons Rob stayed in ECW for the schedule?

The guy was able to support his family working for ECW and half the time Heyman didn't even give him his check! Rob likes spending time with his wife, he has a comic book store and TNA has got to have ECW style money to help with the ends. Unless Vince tosses out some big cash or TNA folds (which I pray doesn't happen cause these workers will all be screwed) then I think RVD is out of the WWE.

So the Cubs choked, what a shock. And teams choke when they start to believe they can't win and you start believing you can't win when stuff that doesn't happen starts to happen. I'm a sports reporter, I've seen the up close look in a players eyes when things go wrong. Of course you are going to start acting unprofessional when you see a dream (cause believe it or not, they were all kids at one time who dreamed of playing in the World Series) slipping away, you start making mistakes or overplaying or just get plain out confused. The Marlins were down and done until that ball was dropped. Hell, even most of the Marlins admitted that it was a spark to get them back. And congrats to them for making big money, if you don't like them or don't care then why come in here? No one is sitting here saying that the guy was the whole problem but it only takes ONE thing to get into your mind. Professionals are still kids with a dream.

$2000 dollars? THAT'S IT??? Christ Maryland, what a weak fine.

TNA is hanging around in Nashville more than likely to conserve money until they can secure a tv deal. It does make sense but you are right, it doesn't help with expanding. Then again, they also need to make sure not to over-extend themselves too much. A big PPV (which you know will be used mostly to impress TV networks in hopes of getting a deal) once I don't see as over-extension since it will serve a purpose. Course, I'm still new so I bet I'm wrong.

I'm hoping it is true. I NEED another wrestling organization on my tv to rise up against the WWE and their awful writing team. Plus it does sound logical since most of these guys probably already have saved their money well and a shorter schedule could increase the length of their careers.

I hope all the WWE workers FINALLY stand up against Vince. If they are tired of it, say it. Vince isn't going to fire guys like Jericho if they are tired of his bull. He's not that stupid. This could be a sign the workers are starting to feel TNA is an option and that is not good news for Vince since he's not pulling in the cash so he won't be able to meet big contract demands.

In other words, the WWE locker room isn't getting the money they once got and the writers/McMahon family aren't showing any signs of trying to correct the mistakes. Makes you wonder if when his deal runs out if guys like Jericho, who I imagine wants to spend time with his family and work with his band Fozzy, won't leave. I expect Vince is about to turn his guns on TNA and try to crush it before it can even get started.

Face it, whether you think Rob sucks or not, he is seen by many fans as one of the stars of RAW and it would be huge if he left for TNA. But I still think he'll re-sign with them.

Bartman is the only one who got a hand on it. Frankly, it was all a mental deal and it just sucked the life out of Wrigley. And yes, but losing the game in Florida wasn't what hurt them. As for last night, I can't understand why no one went out to talk to Wood and why Clement wasn't even warming up. That is what confused me last night.

Maybe it should be Kevin Nash singing "The wheels on the bus". Or Macho Man's hit single "Be a man" That would be fitting promotion for this PPV.

Here is why the play of the guy WAS HUGE You are up by 3, you know the Marlins are a come from behind team and every out counts. You see a short pop down the left field line that you can catch and suddenly, a fan reaches out and deflects the ball away. You missed a critical out, you lose your mindset cause as a player AND as a fan you are thinking of that as out number 2. Gonzo gets a ground ball, instead of thinking I just need to get the ball and get ONE OUT, he tries to hurry and thinks about the throw to second. As in football, take your mind off the ball and you don't make the play. The ball bounces away and suddenly you have opened the flood gates. Prior is tired, he sees a fan cost him an out. He gets frustrated cause he is tired. He overpitches. He gets a grounder (and no, he had no chance at 2 anyway) but since Gonzo is thinking 2, he bobbles. Prior is now tired, frustrated and more than likely thinking I have to do this myself. But he's so tired he can't get the pitches to work anymore. The Marlins are struggling, they need a spark. A Cubs fan SAVES them an out. Suddenly they see a small opening. They rush for it like always, a grounder bounces off one of the best fielding shortstops in the league and suddenly, the door is open more. They start hitting Prior, they have kicked open the door. You are the Chicago Cubs, you just had some idiot use the word "CHAMPS" in a 7th inning stretch. You know that anything can spark your opponent, who has been a nightmare against your bullpen. You see something that hardly ever happens down the line, a Cubs fan preventing a Cub player from catching a ball. The pressure of making a World Series was already a heavy load on your shoulders and when you add it's the Chicago Cubs, the weight gets heavier. In the back of your mind, you are saying this can't be happening when a ball bounces away from your shortstop. The weight is too heavy, you stumble. Series over. The race for the World Series ended cause a fan, who if he lets it go might have got a ball anyway, just wanted a ball. Baseball isn't about execution all the time. It's mental and physical. When you get rattled, you lose something and you start to force to try to make things happen. And when you force, you lose games. Also, do you think Steve would be safe in Florida? Hate to be the bad news guy but Cub fans are everywhere. Steve is in big trouble and can only HOPE that the CUBS as an organization come out and say, "It's not his fault, we can't go turning on ourselves and our fans. Now is the time to come together as Cubs fans and realize we got one step closer to our dreams. Who says next year we don't take another step and then another?" As a Cubs fan, I believe we will be back and I say we let this guy go. It happens, as Cubs fans we know stuff like this happens. I mean, what if this guy next year pulls a ball away from the Marlins that leads to a Cubs comeback? If he dies, we never know! Course...if he does it again then he might as well purchase some rope. But this wasn't our last chance team, not by a long shot. They get an improved second baseman with speed (like maybe Castillo), they get some improved bullpen help and get Sammy/Alou/Gonzo back then all is good. Gonzo needs back, he was excellent defensively and he can't be punished for one mistake...but he will. Just wait till next year.

Well, I WAS going to buy TNA DVDs

When I see one that looks like I'd spend 40 dollars to see it live and in person, then I'll buy it on PPV. So far, I haven't seen a card worth 40 dollars in a year or so.

Cause no one pays money to see small wrestlers! THEY PAY FOR HOSSES! Why hype a match no one cares about? All time needs to be spent on the exciting Vince vs Stephanie match that the fans have been begging for. I'm just shocked they didn't hold it for Wrestlemania.

Seems like Matt and Lita haven't broken up so somewhere a bunch of fan girls who want to see Lita skinned alive weep. Then again, they START every break-up rumor. Matt is damn good at this commentary stuff and it's a damn shame the WWE is missing such a huge chance with him. I used to not be a fan of Matt but the guy has improved, he has charisma, the crowd loves him and he doesn't seem to screw up moves like his loser brother. If only he was 6'7, weighed 275 pounds, had no talent in or out of the ring and was covered with back hair. THEN he'd be in a big angle! WWE: Where logic comes to die.

Hmmm Sounds like Cena/Angle feud died a hard death. You take an angle that SHOULD be used to get over Cena as a serious wrestler and bring in a midget? A midget?!?! When has a midget HELPED a feud? Not only that but the midget gets the best of Cena. Well, thank you WWE for ruining this match. Ok good, one reason not to order the PPV. Eddie/Show sounds like it was saved but of course, Eddie cannot lose the match now. When you get turned into a bloody mess just days before a PPV, you have to win at the PPV....unless you are fighting Triple H cause then you lose. Eddie defeats Show and heads to the World title match at SS. Sorta a reason to buy Steph/Vince.....four reasons not to buy. Sable, Stephanie, Linda and Vince. Man, this card actually makes RAW PPVs seem horrible instead of mind numbing like they usually seem. Can the Vince/Stephanie match end in Double DQ so they BOTH have to leave?

Jacqueline was actually good looking before they made her breasts bigger than her head. Now she just looks so completely out of whack with oversized breasts and a small head with skinny arms now. The WWE totally screwed her up in the looks department in my opinion. Jazz is decent enough. When I think of unattractive divas, Sable and Shaniqua are still light years ahead of the rest.

Come on, Shane is a god! HE CAN FLY! HE CURES DISEASES! HE BROUGHT KANE BACK FROM THE DEAD! And his Mr. Furly face is second only to Don Knotts himself.

The next line of DVD Shane McMahon "Here comes the money" Vince McMahon "No chance in Hell" From the vault- The Undertaker (this one actually seems fair)

The only way I want to pay money to see Vince vs Taker is if it's a REAL Buried Alive match. In other words, leave them in the hole. And Taker wins. I think it would be a fitting end for Vince, to be buried alive while the wrestlers all come out and dance on his grave.
