I would have a character that thinks he's really appealing to the ladies, but sometime around the 10:50 PM spot on Raw we always find him bed with a mid-card male athlete. This leads him to feud with Batista, calling the big man a "metrosexual", after Batista turns down his sexual advances, eventually pinning him for the IC Title, and turning Batista face. It also allows WWE to kill the careers and easily fire useless talent like Maven, Val Venis, and The Bashams. Oh, that's a terrible idea? Remember, I'm submitting it to the company that put a ***retarded*** wrestler in a 15 minute co-main event match at SUMMERSLAM with the guy they're pushing as the ***GREATEST WRESTLER EVER***.

I disagree. If they advertised the following names to appear at Viking Hall for a few weeks, it'll sell out, just like the "TNA hating" fans would: A.J. Styles Scott Hall & Kevin Nash (non-wrestling) "Diamond" Dallas Page Monty Brown Raven Alex Shelley Petey Williams Abyss L.A. Park Sonjay Dutt Psychosis Spanky Kid Kash Chris Sabin Team Canada Ron Killings That's a much better in-ring product than ECW *ever* had in one show, if the TNA guys are given enough time at non-televised house shows to develop their matches. With proper advertising and booking of matches, I believe they could succeed. Although they've done neither thus far in 2 1/2 years.

Hey Czech? Here's my help to you, it'll be a lot different from others because I don't like to really judge music, I just want to tell you situations where you might like Radiohead CDs. Bored, working on the computer, finishing a paper, or just relaxing, they're good to listen to in your room. Unique songs, make you think, or help you to keep thinking. After you've just smoked some pot, the music's pretty chill to have in the background when hanging out with some friends. Or if everyone leaves, throw them on and give another listen. Also, the girls that are "kinda nerdy yet attractive" dig these guys, too. I personally got into them with the OK Computer CD. I'm not the bigtgest fan, but I also picked up Kid A and thought it was decent.

This belongs in Fantasy Booking, since you're apparently doing a tournament. I nominate: Chris Benoit Shawn Michaels "Hot Stuff" Eddie Gilbert The Dark Patriot Raven Dean Malenko Chris Candido Tully Blanchard The Big Show Chris Jericho

And by the way, all the people, including the "smart" TNA haters that said "UseTheSledgeHammer, you're crazy! No way they'll go away in just 5 months and die!" can order your crow any time now.

Can I ask a question? Ok. It says "TNA will lose money by doing House Shows". They've got guys signed to contract, unlike, say CZW. If TNA were to run at Viking Hall 1 time a month, and draw 1500 fans a show, how would it lose money? The guys would apparently not be paid for the individual show. It would only have to pay for the building and setup. Drawing a full house, selling DVDs, merchandise, etc. would certainly be SOME of a profit. I'm not saying doing 1 Viking Hall show a month is a CASH COW, but they need to start somewhere?

I bet Orton holds A "Qualifying Match" for the battle royal. It will be between two people: A) Edge B) The last babyface to be eliminated, likely Jericho Jericho wins, by some screwy means (Benoit can cost Edge the match, thus Edge will be "robbed" of a title shot just like Benoit was last week. Altho it wasn't Edge's fault, but WWE Writers are fuckheads). HHH eliminates Jericho by bullshit happenings. Jericho then announces since he's the next GM, he and Hunter 1 on 1... that, or... "Trips, next week, you'll face.... Wait for it.... KANE!!!!!!!!!!!"

If we're talking about a TNA World Champion, then Viscera. If we're talking about the most prestigious World Title in wrestling, then obviously, Viscera. Christian, Edge, and Viscera will duke it out this Monday. WHEN THE MINISTRY OF DARKNESS EXPLODES!!!!!!!! See, Smackdown! doesn't get all the good stable warfare. Actually, what other "stable maters" will do battle on Monday? ** Viscera, Edge, and Christian were members of the Ministry of Darkness. ** Viscera and Triple H were members of the Corporate Ministry (E, C, and Gangrel were fired before). ** Steven Richards and Val Venis were RTC. ** Benoit and Flair were Horsemen. Anyone else?

"Sustained a post-Survivor Series audience?" What the fuck does THAT mean? The SS buyrate will probably be one of the lowest ever. It's not like new fans bought the show and are "trying out" Raw now.

Miss Jackie just looked really adoreable.

KR, Jericho/RVD Unfoprgiven 2001 one of RVD's two best matches ever? Errr...no. It's got blown spots,a STEPHANIE RUN IN FINISH... I gave it something like ***, because it's pretty stiff and has some wicked spots. Don't get me wrong, I really liked it, but this is coming from someone that has seen nearly all Van Dam's ECW work and a lot of his international stuff. Technically speaking, the best match ever with RVD in it is the Survivor Series 2003 Raw 10-man.

Yes Dupree rules. I hate Baldcore, he is embarassing to have on TV due to his shitty "character" and redneck persona. I wish he would go to TNA and fit right in with the rest of the rednecks that no one wants to watch. Dupree just earned more points, however.

Hey, are they still revealing one of the characters is gay? Is that this season? I ask because that would probably be the most interesting Simpsons thing to happen in many years.

One of my favorite GI Joe figures was named "Salvo"...he came with a scar on his arm, and a brown t-shirt with "No Cobras!" (it looked like one of the dudes from Aliens) and this big-ass bomb launcher gun. It came with the either hated or loved Joe line from like '93 (Comander Grid-Iron, etc.)

I disagree with anyone that can instantly call something a "Classic". Baseball game, football game, anything. If it's boring or insulting to watch: DUD. If it's boring but they tried, only 1 to none blown mistakes, but effort and an attempt to tell a story was made: * If it's a little sloppy but has some exciting action, tells a decent story: ** If it's pretty average, nothing boring, but nothing remotely crazy, tells a good story, accomplishes what it was meant to do, and keeps my interest: *** If it's very exciting, I am into it, the crowd cares (this is my scale mind you), it tells a wonderful story, has no blown spots, great effort, and is just missing something (a few moves, a terrible finish, maybe some length), it gets **** If I feel thoroughly entertained and feel the match I have just viewed took me on a journey...it makes me want to instantly get up and show a friend the match. There's nothing to be changed, no little flaws, nada. Perfection. ***** IMO, there's been very, very, very few ***** matches since the 80's.

Hmmm....Hogan out of the main event, the company collpases.

I smell bullshit on this match-list makreting. WWE would never label something as a "WWF" debut. They can't use the word WWF, I thought. Also, Invasion 2001 is not Van Dam's "re-debut". The run-in on Raw and a tag match (with Kidman) on Smackdown! against XPac and Jeff Hardy was his 1st match back.

JoeDirt, someone asked that a while back in a thread and I provided *every single* Mike Tenay "heel" interview (even when talking to heels)...track it down, good stuff, in a WCW thread. Heel Tenay was gold. "How many has it been, Stacy? 2? 5? Can we even count on one hand?" (in reference to Stacy not knowing the father of her baby...)

You should check the original KOTR advertisement/card in WWF Magazine, my friend. Ahmed (as a FACE) was supposed to face (and I would suppose, job, or perhaps the heel turn would have occured sooner and made it face vs. heel instead) The Undertaker. AUSTIN/HBK and Taker/Ahmed face off on the promotional poster, and the magazine hyped Ahmed/Taker, as well. I am also aware they were then booked for IYH: CS, one month after.

I like when you guys say "Well, maybe longer..." when I accurately proclaim TNA will be out of business in 5 months.

Ahmed Johnson was originally supposed to face The Undertaker at the 1997 King of the Ring.

Man you guys have some idiotic choices... WRESTLER OF THE YEAR Chris Benoit TAG TEAM OF THE YEAR Chris Benoit & Edge NEWCOMER OF THE YEAR Eugene, I suppose. Most TV main events and storyline focus, although Snitsky main evented a PPV. Not a great choice of candidates. MOST IMPROVED WRESTLER Randy Orton. Christian has gotten SO bad. Benjamin hasn't improved, he's always been fantastic. JBL has a better character but still can't work a lick. Batista is useful in tag matches only. FINISHER OF THE YEAR ***TIE*** Benoit's Sharpshooter and Crippler Crossface? Here is why: Triple H tapped out in the main event of WrestleMania. Shawn Michaels tapped out in a PPV main event. Kane tapped out. Let's move on. This is easy. ANGLE OF THE YEAR Ugh...it would either go to the "Bischoff/Top Faces Finally Revolt Against Evolution" storyline or "Kidman Turns into an Asshole". FEUD OF THE YEAR Mick Foley Vs. Evolution (and specifically Orton). MATCH OF THE YEAR The 2004 Royal Rumble Match (Royal Rumble 2004) TV MATCH OF THE YEAR I didn't rate ANY one of the given choices anywhere above ** 3/4. From what I remember, Jericho/Orton from Canada was pretty awesome, despite an awful finish. Also, the 8-Man Evo/Foley+Shelton+HBK+Benoit match was quite good. PAY-PER-VIEW OF THE YEAR WM XX. But in this rare case...get the VHS, not the DVD. The show is marred by awful low-card and unimportant tag matches.

WWF Magazine's "WrestleMania 8" preview included a full write-up and pictures for the following match: WWF Tag Team Champions Money, Inc. Vs. "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan & Sgt. Slaughter
