Shelton is under the curse of "arguably the finest athlete in the entire WWE!" that plagued Billy Gunn.

"Orton's gone so far as to claim he'll win..." Orton wins.

This is awful.

Didn't Melina and Mickie James have some online beef about Mickie's debut, copying her look with the boots and all?
-
Perhaps they're training the fans for an upcoming WWE 24/7 Flashback of Ron Simmons against #1 Contender THGE BARBARIAN at Halloween Havoc '92.

DONT STEP TO RUN

Wow, Cena is awful.

Last week Show dressed as Tony Soprano. This week it's the RA Mike Golic from Saved by the Bell: The College Years.

At the beginning of 2006, imagine this: "Kevin Federline then kicked off Raw, introducing Smackdown!'s World Champion King Booker."

Oh wow, cheap heat 101 K-Fed.

"10/28/2006: Pumpkinhead II: Blood Wings (7 PM)" Bad movie starring Return of the Living Dead 3 star J. Trevor Edmund as the big heel. So watch it.

Picture a white Snoop Dogg. And you can't be serious.

The problem is developing teams from steretypical minority gimmicks: The Annoying Gay Cheerleaders, The Funny Black Thugs, and The Old-World Beserkers. The crowd is TRAINED to see them as one-dimensional characters. Why would you CARE about the division when it is clear the characters are WRITTEN and do not DEVELOP. Cryme Tyme may unfortunately face this problem soon. Smackdown!, on the other hand, has tag team matches that BUILD off of the previous encounter, thus leaving the viewers guessing. Plus two of the best workers on the roster have the belts, and are very credible, defending champions. Smackdown just had a *** 1/2 tag match (after a second viewing) on their last PPV, with Kendrick & London being able to work magic and carry anyone to excellence. In this case, they took the green Stevens & James and used the crowd's dislike of their cocky characters and bitch manager, and used that to help get the crowd behind them. Raw, on the other hand, cares about popping ratings with comedy segments, then throwing the teams to the wolves with PPV matches and poor workrate that turns off both casual and smark fans. On Smackdown!, you have likeable tag team champions who defend against teams that don't have stupid gimmicks, and just want to hurt people (Pitbulls) or piss off the crowd by beating their favorites and proving themselves (KC & Idol). They do singles bouts and quickie tag matches, then deliver on PPV. You got a, again, this is just my opinion, and I consider myself a VERY critical fan: ** 1/2 match at the Bash and *** 1/2 match at No Mercy, the second best match on that show behind Benoit/Regal. Is there a way to "fix" the Raw tag divison? Is it really the writers fault? Would you be able to watch a 7-minute match every week between SINGLE members of teams? Shad Vs. Rory McAllister? Mitch Vs. JTG? I'd say not. Smackdown!, on the other hand, has stars finding their niche in the tag division. 20 minutes of London/Regal? Awesome. 10 minutes of Kendrick Vs. Stevens? Well, it might not be great, but it'd be much better than what Raw produces. MAKE THE FANS CARE ABOUT THE BABYFACE TEAMS AND HAVE THEM SEEM REAL AND VULNERABLE, AND NOT JUST TRY TO TOP THE PREVIOUS WEEK'S STEREOTYPICAL JOKE. (Example: Instead of showing "gay" pics of Randy Orton, have Michaels bring up Orton dropping out of the marines. Then have Edge cheer up Orton by reminding him of Michaels' concussion history DUE TO a bunch of marines attacking him. Then attack Michaels and force a concussion injury, which leads to Orton/Edge getting victories. Find a way for DX to regroup, slowly, and build Michaels' spirit back. Leading to the blowoff.) (Instead, you get "you're gay!" "Your dick is small!" "HHH pins Orton." "Let's fight at the PPV!" What's the PAYOFF FOR THE BABYFACES? Much like Vengeance, SummerSlam, and Unforgiven...NO ONE GIVES A SHIT WHEN THE BABYFACES LOOK STRONG IN THE BUILD-UP AND THEN WIN THE BLOWOFF. Fucking WWE.)

Days from now, Rogers' grandchildren will sit on his lap and he'll tell a story of how baseball fans tried to take away his records because they were jealous.
-
Yeah, that was clearly stated and I think he got it.
-
Woody Paige just owned Kenny Rogers on Around the Horn, and even Stat Boy was shocked to see Paige give a serious re-enactment of pine tar and dirt sticking to it, in the same exact area as Rogers' "dirt".
-
I really hope the Tigers win the World Series, since they deserve it and have been the best team in baseball for most of the season. Their "Worst to First" story makes me think of the 1991 World Series. Go Tigers, and Kenny Rogers winning the MVP will be quite interesting, if he can go one more scoreless game.
-
Um, Orton is facing Triple H AGAIN? I think Maria is gonna win the title. "BROOKLYN, BROOKLYN..."

I saw K-Fed perform his hit song "Let's Smoke Something" on Jay Leno Thursday evening. If anything, he seems extremely confident on the microphone, which made the song come off much better (It wasn't that bad, a stoner-funk "chill" song if that makes any sense, like Snoop Dog's sound, eons better than that horrible rap song which was leaked on the 'net a year ago). They need to tease the smarks and announce the following match for next week's Raw: John Cena Vs. Johnny Nitro & KeviN Federline - Whoever Scores the Pinfall Is the WWE Champion And then just have Cena squash K-Fed easily while Jim Ross vaguely references "that company down South who did something like this".

"It's a fucking midcard act, why the big uproar about this?" Because TNA desperately needs to elevate talent, from, GUESS WHERE, the mid-card. All they have of interest are Joe and Christian (who has been a HORRIBLE babyface and an okay heel). Sting and Jarrett, as this PPV buyrate will soon show, are not draws. And they need more people to hang with Angle when he is eligible to work.

This is like in 1987 when Bam Bam turned down winners like Jimmy Hart and Bobby Heenan for the utterly useless Sir Oliver Humperdink. Thought: Today/Tonight, both the World Series and NFL on FOX have used "Big Time", the WM 22 theme, as promotional video music. It reminded me that "Big Time", like it or not (I like the song), gave WWE's "Show of the Year" a catchy identity. Should TNA have used a theme song for this show?

I'm still alive in my league's yahoo Survivor Pool, as I went with Denver this week. Apparently 45% of the people remaining on Yahoo! picked Jacksonville. :::Nelson Muntz::: "HA HA!"

Logically, why would Roode pick Traci over Sherri and Parker, who have managed countless more champions and have eons more success than Traci?

JoeDirt's old school match thread
UseTheSledgehammerUh replied to JoeDirt's topic in General Wrestling
"If it's the one I'm thinking of (for the US title), than that match was the shit and I'd enjoy watching it again." The Armageddon 2002 match was quite boring. The Vengeance 2003 WWE U.S. Title Tournament Final was pretty good with an interference finish.
