Thanks BorneAgain, since the "witty results" from some of the people in here included "OMG! If Edge loses he gets moved to Raw!" and I was confused. Cena/Bischoff is horrible. No one cares about Bischoff, it's not '97.

Can someone please do an update with match results, angles, and future matches setup tonight?

Hi, I just got in. Can someone give me match recaps and angle recaps, any funny backstage stuff? BTW, they do the photoshop all the time with the match graphics (Jericho in referee's shirt, most noticeably lately). From what you guys have said, Cena is stripped of the title, and an 8-man tournament involving Triple H will happen. But they you have Bisch Vs. Cena Title match later?

"7) AJ STYLES d. JIMMY RAVE to win the rights to the Styles Clash" Lame Gimmick Match/Story.

"He said he was a professional wrestler. I was like, “Yeah, right, sure you are...And he said, “My name’s Jeff Jarrett.”' HA. "Kevin Nash. Top of his game." Ah, in '94 maybe.

Question to die-hard TNA fans, whether you hate JJ or not... Don't you feel its a major slap in the face by TNA to goat you into the "new direction", by making you pay money for a pretty good PPV featuring new top stars in the main and title match, only for them to go back to Square One at an indy show? I think it's kinda BS.

Mik, I agree, Jones is one of the best. He has the NL record for most consecutive appearences with a save (23). He was Mr. Reliable. He can't be bashed just because he had a meltdown. I'm just raggin' Willis because, despite my initial thoughts on him following the break, he's been pretty much one of baseball's best two pitchers, and has been dominating his starts, especially on the national spotlight. No need for the insults, man. Just a happy Phils fan that can't believe the Phillies survived not only WILLIS, but Mr. Phillie Killer Himself, JEFF CONINE. A big outing from Beckett can help fix things tomorrow, a little bit, but the Marlins looked so depressed, shocked, and embarassed...something that usually happens to the Phils with their late-season trips to Florida.

Fantastics > Funks > HDA Damnit, 1991-version Hase & Sasaki shoulda made it.

"Can Dontrelle get any additional points towards the Cy Young simply by being the Marlins savior?" He lost.

All about the Choke Train! Simply an amazing end for the Phillies. Harry Kalas was in shock.

Woder if they'll use that slower version in the credits? (I missed the opening credits this week, if they have already, whoops)

Exactly...and remember, Lex was doing jack shit on WWF TV in 95 (not a predicted Rumble winner, easily eliminated, jobbing w/ Bulldog to Mo & Mabel, Yoko & Owen in short matches). It was just cool to see "anything can happen!" type aspect.

Ha, TNA just LEAPED from "the new ECW" to "WCW 2000". Yeehaw, I got all the stroke around here, y'all! COW-BOY!

Whether or not Raw got a 3.0 or a 7.1 doesn't matter. What DOES matter is the content of the show. This show's content was AWFUL. The only time ratings SHOULD matter for a fan or a smark is when you're seeing if a product's great content is helping the show go up. Since Raw and Smackdown! both are horrible stale shows, who gives a fuck about the ratings until you care about the product? If TNA puts on multiple great shows in a row, then watch. But for now, why bother watching the ratings when you can't even watch the product?

"Well, Bob..." "But my name is Billy!" "IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOUR NAME IS...!!!!" "Somebody got a haircut!" I liked Rock sticking up for Foley, threatening to have the entire roster walk if HHH/Stephanie didn't reinstate him. I also liked Rock putting over Benoit like 2 weeks after his WWF debut. I also liked Rock's WM 2000 promo..."After every chairshot, every backstab, every pedigree, every chokeslam, every twist and turn, every city, every table, everything...I say it was worth it all just to say...FINALLY, The Rock has come back to WRESTLE MANIA!"

I think the greatest moment(s) in ECW history was The Final Battle, The Rematch, and The Challenge and what happened after. 3 awesome moments back-to-back-to-back. - Dreamer finally defeats Raven after various super near-falls. - Louie/Dreamer feud continues. - Sabu, RVD do the "lights out, lights on" attacks. - Dreamer gains momentum, Raven leaves. - JERRY FUCKING LAWLER in the arena. - Locker room can't take Team WWF down. - Run-ins galore, still, Team WWF reigns. - Taz runs them off. - Taz Vs. Sabu rematch. - Sabu wins this time with a controversial pin. - Douglas mocks Taz. - The 3-minute match challenge for the ECW TV Title. - Taz chokes Douglas out. BETTER WATCH OUT, CAUSE IM A WAR MACHINE. And the fans go wild.

I'll be picking Season 1 up tomorrow.

"Shocker will be doing most of the in ring work." How is that good?

I hope this is appropriate, but in a 62-page thread about "Lost", you really shouldn't be in here if you don't hope to find out things about the show. I've never seen the show. I hear it's great. The First Season is out cheap on DVD. I want to pick it up. A certain indy wrestler reccomended it to me Saturday. Another, upon hearing the reccomendation, said, "Lemme guess the plot. They're already dead, and their souls are in limbo. I bet I know it without seeing it." QUESTION: Is this the case? Please reply with a spoiler tag, so those who, like me, won't know IF or IF NOT this is true. However, if it IS true, I will not be buying the DVD set, simply because I found that stupid ass "trick the viewers into thinking it's real-life, when, SURPRISE, it's really a spiritual story!" SUPER LAME and trying to be original when it was attempted in the horrible "Soul Survivors" movie.

I predict: Marlins and Astros split series 2-2. Phillies and Braves split series 2-2, or Phils possibly win 3-1 if they can give the debuting rookie pitcher tonight some run support early. The Phillies MUST win 3 of 4 from the Braves, IMO. Too many road woes ahead.

Just DL's the 3-way. Really really good.
