I know Tim Cooke reads here, so if he's reading this I'd love to hear an explanation of why friggin' DEVITO is better than Shawn Michaels. Okay, you don't like Michaels...but let's not be stupid here. You hate the kip up no sell THAT MUCH that a guy from the Carnage Crew is better in your mind? Yikes.

Bump! Anyone hear/read/remember any good quotes lately? Got this one off the DVDVR board: "An infant doesn't know how to lie, cheat or steal. Thanks, Dad." - Jake Roberts on SMW TV

It's not that out there. Super Dragon curb stomped and injured Robby Mireno after a match with Eddie Kingston a few months ago. Ruckus has wanted a match ever since.

Some other notes I got from another board's spoilers: -Somebody debuted for MNM and helped them beatdown the Mexicools. He was never named, and the guy watching didn't knwo who he was, but probably an OVW cruiserweight. -Cannon announced Kennedy was injured and put Boogeyman in his spot in a match. -Scary Taker stuff all night with Josh Matthews doing an interview with Orton but then being possessed and talking in Taker's voice, etc, seeing things in the mirror that aren't there (like Hogan/Warrior), etc. -A video aired showing Lashley's dominance at SS...even though he was first out. -End of the main event had JBL "hurting his foot" and walking out of the match.

I believe she's filming for Big Momma's House 2.

I read on another board a series of news items that seemed to be from the Observer or somewhere. It mentioned that Jamal was signed to be Cena's backup from the street. Anyone read this?

I am getting the same problem Damaramu had and clearing my cookies didn't help.

In honor of the Undertaker crazyness coming up this Friday on Smackdown (I won't say more to keep from spoiling stuff, but you've seen enough in the past to get the idea), what wrestlers have been booked to have supernatural powers, powers from beyond-this-world? The stupider it is, the better! I'll start: Kane is an obvious one. Taker's brother from the dead traded firing lightning bolts at peeps on RAW back in '98, even setting a crew member on fire.

PWI reports that local ads for Armageddon have announced that Orton/Taker will be for the WHC with Batista as special guest referee and former champ. Now, these ads might be outdated because they advertise Benoit/Booker match 7 (four matches in two weeks to get there?), Boogeyman's debut match (debuted at this week's SD tapings), and a tag team turmoil match for the titles (looks more like MNM vs. Mexicools)...so I'm wondering if there's any clear indication if Bats is going to try and make it to Mania or if he will be dropping the title like these ads say? From the looks of spoilers it doesn't look like he'll be vacating the title before Armageddon...so what then? Bats vs. JBL vs. Rey?

Christ, how could I forget Cawthon's site. Not the one I had in mind, but that works.

Anyone know what I'm talking about? This page I've seen before has all sorts of original posters from shows. For example, one showing Ahmed vs. Taker for Canadian Stampede even though it didn't happen. Anyone know this link?

MAJOR SPOILER FOR NEXT MONTH'S ARMAGEDDON PPV by Mike Johnson @ 10:20:00 PM on 11/22/2005 Jay Gunn sent the following spoiler note on next month's WWE Armageddon PPV: "I just saw an ad on Comcast Cable here in south Mississippi for next month's WWE Armageddon pay-per-view, and as is customary for WWE, the ad gave away the main event, Undertaker vs. Randy Orton in Hell In A Cell." Orton vs. Undertaker was originally slated for the Survivor Series PPV before the passing of Eddie Guerrero led to Orton being added onto the Smackdown Survivor Series team.

PWI is reporting that it'll be Orton/Taker HIAC. Thoughts?

I jsut had a chance to buy a Core console which are selling for more than double their $300 tag on Ebay, but I wasn't allowed to at the store I work at. Damn, damn, damn, damn.

I won't pay $35 for this, but I think it'll be a very fun card. The SS match should have a hot crowd and it will play to the strenghts of all the guys involved (I.E Masters not having to do anything but put on the Masterlock, Kane and Show and Lashley can be monsters, Carlito can do comedy, etc.). HHH/Flair should be solid. Trish/Melina will be a good women's match. Angle/Cena should be good as they'll pull out everything if it's their blowoff. Booker/Benoit will be nothing but solid, possibly very good and will likely open so the crowd should be hot for it. Nothing bad on this card except Teddy/Eric which should be short and hopefully advance some angle or something. Toss in MNM/Mexicools if they have time and that's a damn good card, one I'll happily download for free.

Punk was never in Generation Next. That was Alex Shelley, Austin Aries, Jack Evans, and Roderick Strong (and now Matt Sydal to replace Shelley). Punk headed the Second City Saints stable.

I'm just going by Prazak's definition from last year's show..."basically guys who hit really fucking hard and drop guys on their heads." It's not like this is a super-set criteria like a weight class or something. Besides, Ian knows Joe vs. Necro II will sell a lot of tapes because people have been begging to see that rematch, and would be crazy NOT to book both those guys in the tournament if he could.

Strong style = hitting hard. Corp hits hard. Romero does too. I thoguht maybe HTQ was referring to him since he sometimes does a lucha style. Necro not strong style? Did you see Joe's face after their match in June?

Necro most definitely belongs in there. Maybe HTQ is referring to Rocky Romero? And Corporal Robinson...well, we'll see how he does. I've heard he can be pretty good in non-deathmatches if given a chance, and although he's not some great athlete he can excel in the sort of slow paced, ground in out mat based match that Ian Rotten can also do.

I can't believe this hasn't received any attention here so far! The 8 guys for the tournament are: Chris Hero Rocky Romero Samoa Joe Tank Roderick Strong Corporal Robinson Eddie Kingston Necro Butcher Should be an awesome tournament, hopefully we get to see Joe vs. Necro II! I'd love to see Romero vs. Hero as well as Strong vs. Necro.

What is Gran Akuma's "Yoshi Tonic"?

-The WCW stuff in early 1999 with Flair getting beat up in some field and a helicopter circling over. -WCW 1999 has Sid/mystery partner in a tag match. They hype up who Sid's mystery partner will be all night and then it ends up being Rick Steiner, WHO WAS WITH HIM IN THE OPENING SEGMENT and the announcers act all surprised. -Austin "pissing" on Arn Anderson with the worst fake piss I've ever seen. -"Kane, you are a MURDERER!" The only time I've ended watching a WWE show laughing my ass off. -The time that midget from that one camera commercial was on Smackdown. -Cindy Margolis trying to sell the figure four leglock to Jeff Jarrett.

I just got done reaidng the thread that had Meltzer talking about Taker/Kane up to April 1999. Anyways, what are the msot non-sensical, illogical, stupid angles/storylines/turns/whatever in history? I'm sure WCW in 2000 should give people plenty to work with!

11/19: 1) Joe vs. Jerrelle Clark 2) AMW vs. Siaki/Apolo 3) Abyss vs. Rhino Main event is a Christian interview 11/26: 1) AJ vs. Sabin 2) Monty vs. Jobber 3) Abyss vs. Jeff Hardy 4) Jarrett vs. Kip James

Everything up to and including Cena/Orton is on RAW. After that is on SD.
