I don't want their legacy to be ruined by having a ** match.I'd rather see Flair/Sting than be wincing everytime Steamboat takes a bump.

Credit to Puroresufan.com "Mr Puroresu" Genichiro Tenryu is confirmed for the Tokyo Dome! Tenryu revealed yesterday that he will compete on the show, and is very happy because New Japan is letting him choose his own opponent. Tenryu said the man he most wants to face now is Nakamura, but since he is tied up in the main event, is considering other options. Tenryu expressed great interest in winning the IWGP Heavyweight Title. Negotiations with Misawa aren't advancing as easily though, according to Weekly Pro, so the chances of him making a personal appearance aren't as high right now.

I heard it was just D'Lo went for his "Real Deal" running powerbomb and was struggling to hold Droz up because of his attire (shorts) and he ended up accidently dropping him on his head. I don't think he slipped on anything, although I might be wrong. That's why Mike Awesome never used the running Awesome bomb in wwf/e

It must be the last match for Sting in tna if he's jobbing to Jarrett next week.

and then a few weeks later he dropped the belt to PERRY SATURN

How long has the match been so far?

Michael Shane is worse than Kendo Kashin and that's saying something.

It's called a Ganso Bomb

Taken from puroresufan.com Wild II learnt a wise lesson today... don't f*ck with Mr. Saikyo! Yuji Nagata & Hiroshi Tanahashi made a successful V1 defense of their GHC Tag Team Title, beating Takeshi Morishima & Takeshi Rikio on today's NOAH show in Yokohama. The New Japan pair were given a strong challenge from Wild II, but in the end their combined technique shone through. Nagata transformed into a crazed killer, and took Morishima to school, forcing a referee stoppage from his Nagata Lock III. After the match, Nagata gave a cold and provocative interview, leading to a showdown with NOAH wrestlers. A fan threw a bottle at Nagata as he gloated on the rampway, so he threw one back and it connected! Mitsuharu Misawa & Yoshinari Ogawa are the leading candidates to challenge next, either on New Japan's 1/4 Tokyo Dome show or NOAH's 1/10 Budokan show, but a STERNNESS combination (more than likely Jun Akiyama & Akitoshi Saito) have also petitioned for a shot. Tanahashi remains the the tag king of Japan, and a 3-crown champion, but still has two title matches left in December. Update:Nagata & Tanahashi's V2 defense has been officially set for 1/10 Budokan. Their opponents, as expected, will be Misawa & Ogawa

I'm glad Steve Williams didn't win the Brawl For All,imagine JR's commentary.

Why was the Genius awol from Wrestlemania 6 until the Beverly Brothers? was he still under contract?

Credit to puroresufan.com Kensuke Sasaki's provocation was a success! Nagata broke down and accepted Kensuke's challenge, and the two will meet at the Tokyo Dome in Sasaki's return to New Japan! Titled "LIFE OR DEATH FIGHT", this grudge feud is likely to erupt at the Tokyo Dome. They last met last June at Tokyo Nippon Budokan, with Nagata successfully defending the IWGP Heavyweight Title against Sasaki. Before that though, Kensuke had several singles wins in succession over Nagata.

I can see an impromptu match with Jericho and Christian because of the tag match.

Imagine A-Train playing face in peril?

No wonder it's the most meaningless ppv of the year.

Rhyno vs Bradshaw Shannon Moore vs A-Train Los Guerreros vs Worlds Greatest Tag Team Brock Lesnar vs Rey Mysterio there's also a battle rap as well.

I heard that Perfect received the ic title in exchange for not winning the Rumble and for losing to Beefcake at wm6.

I can't believe they're turning A-Train face.

1)How did Crush debut as the 3rd member of Demolition? 2)Did they ever explain Sensational Sherri leaving Ted Dibiase for Shawn Michaels? 3)What was the last televised match of the Rockers? 4)What was deal with Marty Jannetty missing most of 92? 5)When did Owen Hart return for his 2nd stint in the wwf?

I can't believe this is the same Kanyon who was treated very well until his injury.I wonder why Psicosis got a tryout? Has Psicosis ever wrestled in a dark match for wwf/e?

Here's some from Meltzer. Dark Matches Jamie Knoble beat Psicosis(I believe the original with his mask) Good match that saw Knoble win by reversing a top rop huracanrana into a sunset flip for the win. Travis Tomko & ???(Looked like Zulu without the face paint but I'm not sure) beat the Ballard Brothers. It was ok. Velocity Chuck Palumbo & Nunzio beat Spanky & Paul London Average Ultimo Dragon beat Tony ???(Same guy who lost to John Heidenreich last night) Dragon got the best reaction so far. Orlando Jordan pinned Kanyon Tajiri pinned Kidman to retain the cruiserweight title good match Smackdown Paul Heyman opened the show by saying Chris Benoit would never get another title shot while he was GM.He said he was going to build Smackdown around Brock Lesnar like Vince Sr. built around Sammartino and Vince Jr. built around Hogan & Austin.Lesnar came out and both he & Heyman kept repeating the line of greatest WWE Champion of all time.Lesnar screwed up on his promo thinking he was in Mexico before Heyman corrected him and said they were in San Diego.Rey Misterio came out and challenged Lesnar to a match.Lesnar agreed but said it would be non title and if Rey won he'd get a title shot next week. Rhyno beat Bradshaw Bradshaw took the whole match before being pinned with an inside cradle off a superplex. Heyman was in the back with Matt Morgan & A-Train and noted how he "dealt" with Nathan Jones and said he would do the same with A-Train for betting on Benoit last week and booked him against Shannon Moore Before the match FBI were taking bets on all matches for the night and Morgan put his money on Train.Bashams also put money on themselves in their tag title match with Rikishi & Scotty next week Shannon Moore beat A-Train with a roll up. Morgan nailed Moore as he was going to the back and Big Show came out.They teased beating up Moore but instead Morgan & Show turned on A-Train ending with a chokeslam The Cat came out and brought out Sable to dance with him.Sable wouldn't so Cat kissed her and stripped down to his boxers and did the splits. Los Guerreros beat Haas & Benjamin.Eddie did the spot where he moves the tag rope to the center of the ropes to tag Chavo.At one point Benjamin lifted tho hood up on the lowrider and went to slam Eddie's head under it.Backstage before the match Eddie said he would steal the spotlight and win the match so when he had the match won and was setting for the frog splash Chavo tagged in and did the frog splash but couldn't get the win.Eddie ended up getting a part from the engine and hitting Benjamin for the win. Big Show came out in hip hop gear and challenged Cena to a rap battle.Show's delivery wasn't good but his lines were great including "I'm a giant in my world your the white girl and I'm Kobe Bryant"Crowd ended up cheering Show alot and Cena responded with one of his best raps ever.Segment ended with Cena giving Show a low blow. They recapped the title match from last week and Benoit did an interview and said Heyman could take away his title shot but not his passion Torrie Wilson & Nidia were backstage and Torrie was about to tell Nidia what Knoble did last week but he showed up and was checking out Torrie the whole time. Lesnar made Misterio tap out to the leg submission he used on Benoit last week.Crowd groaned big time at the finish.Seeing as how it was his home town and non title and could have set up a match last week where Lesnar went over I see no reason why Rey couldn't win here.It was a really good match with a lot of heat as the whole crowd was on it's feet.Rey got a lot of offense although had a few slip ups that will be edited out.Best moves were a 619 around the post and a huracanrana on the outside which sent Lesnar into the post.After the match a fan in a Misterio mask hit the ring and was immediatley tackled by Lesnar & security.It seemed totally legit live until the fan unmasked as Bob Holly and cleaned house.After the show Rey celebrated with his family and the fans and Tito Ortiz who was at ringside came in to celebrate with Holly & Rey.After most people left Tito got in the ring with a few freinds and almost killed one of them attempting a press salm.Outside after the show all the wrestlers were driving away in their rental cars right in front of the building and the fans and Cena's car was mobbed to the point security was clearing fans out of the way so he could leave and people chasing the car down the street.
