What happens now all depends on how they want to book, long term or short term. If I was gonna book long term, Batista would win at HIAC and be sent to Smackdown. Short term, I'd have HHH win and send him to Smackdown. HHH and Cena do have some heat, so odds are they'll do the short term thing.

Birdie was sick. Seriously, that's the excuse Capcom used.

It must have taken a shit load of time to type out. Though, I felt that there was a bit too much smarkiness and shoot elements in it. As an internet fan, I enjoyed it, but I could see the twists and turns being a little too complicated to the normal mark. Also, should they really be talking about heel and face turns and dropping titles? I just see Flair having a hard time accepting the use of insider terms on T.V being as old school as he is. Also I think it's a bit much to ask fans, who probably started watching wrestling in the late 90s with Austin's rise, to try and follow along with events that took place in the early 90s. Though, I guess that could be used as an oppurtunity to advertise WWE 24/7 and the Jukebox, showing the more important matches in the KO6's rise.

So if Flair could do Spin Kicks, would he be a "martial arts expert"? Inquiring minds must know.

Rey injured himself sometime this week, that's probably why he wasn't on. Though I'm not sure why Eddy wasn't on. I'm not even sure if I want to watch this Smackdown just because there is no Rey Mysterio. So the Cena/JBL feud is over?

I understand why Boxing would be placed with MMA, but couldn't it just be left to the Sports forum? It is a widely recognized, legitimate, sport after all.

I say if TNA gets the T.V deal that it should remain it's own folder. However if it doesn't, it should become a sub-folder of Misc. Promotions. TNA isn't quite small enough to be a true indy fed, but it's not all that much bigger so it probably doesn't need a forum to itself unless it gets T.V. And just to be festive make Puro a sub-folder of Misc. Promotions too.

They changed his music. Those FUCKERS~!

I explained this last week. Short version: You're supposed to feel sorry for him because he thought he had finally found someone who loved him despite getting her by nefarious means.

I know I shouldn't, but I love these segments with Viscera.

CM Punk: Maybe as a new member of Evolution. Or brought in by Mick Foley. If not that, he should win the Kurt Angle Invitational. Samoa Joe: Win the Masterlock Challenge or Hassan and Daivari's bodyguard. Bryan Danielson: Win the Kurt Angle Invitational.

I say good for him. I remember beating some dude up on a school bus. It was fun. Would've been more fun if he didn't smell like shit.

True, but honestly Jesus didn't have much of a future after Carlito got injured. Him getting injured was just the final nail in the coffin. Besides, seeing how Cena was only U.S Champion, I can see how he wouldn't have all that much pull or the ability to save Jesus. And didn't they say that they would bring Jesus back when he got healthy?

I was thinking about this as I woke up and I don't think Cena would let one of his best friends in the business be jobbed out. Nor would Mick Foley. I think both would try and get Joe a nice sized push, maybe not to the main-event, but something that would get him comfortably over. I don't think they'd treat Joe like Rhyno seeing how Ring of Honor has nowhere near the cult love ECW had. Hell, outside of smarks, who knows what RoH is? Do ordinary marks go to RoH shows? I seriousluy want to know. I think CM Punk will be ok. Like someone said earlier, he didn't look out of place against Venis on Heat. Mick would probably want to do something with him. I don't know enough about Danielson to really comment on him outside of "maybe they'll try and have him do something with Paul London are/or Shawn Micheals due to being trained at the same school."

I know when I first heard of TNA, I said this. Goddamn, I hate that fucking guitar. Anyways, what TNA needs to do is show off their best and hide the "crap" (notice the parenthesis). If TNA wants to grab fans they need to put their most exciting, their best, in the fans faces. Jeff Jarrett seriously doesn't need to wrestle. Let him do a backstage interview, or a run in. Show off Chris Daniels. An interview, match, something to show the fans that their "Cruiserweight Champion" is truely the best high-flyer in the company. Make liberal use of highlight reels. The Skipper Hurracanrana from the top of the cage should be shown in videos no more and no less than 4 times. Anything else is unacceptable. Have Monty Brown cut a promo, showing his charisma. Show that TNA's big men aren't completely bland. In this vein, hide Trytan. He doesn't need to be mentioned in any way. Use the 8:00 hour to introduce new fans to TNA. Bring them up to speed quickly with some video segments and matches. The announcers, shit, Mark Tenay, needs to be on his A-game. Do NOT mention WWE whatsoever. When I was a mark I used to think that WWF was the only wrestling promotion on EARTH just because they never really mentioned any other companies. This is sorta impossible now, but they can at least make fans forget about WWE for a little while with some decent, sensible booking and exciting segments. WWE has programmed wrestling fans to view wrestling in a certain way, their way. TNA needs to reprogram fans and show that WWE isn't the only game in town. Even if TNA is nowhere near WWE's league, they can make the pans think that TNA is with good production values, decent booking, and something different.

It's liquor. You can see him lighting the alcohol before taking the shot.

Didn't they buy the music guy's (Harry Slash, right?) whole ECW music library?

proper word would be moron? How are they morons? They turned the channel. We didn't. Besides, I didn't think it was all that bad of a segment. Hell, I thought the segment last week and the one this week were some of the funniest things I've ever seen. Though, I found some funny moments in the whole Katie Vick thing, so take my opinion on what's funny and what's not for what you will.

I think we're supposed to feel sorry for Kane because after all the times he's been betrayed by people he cared about, he finally found someone who really cared about him even after doing what he did to Lita and Matt. But after finding out that he was just being used, he gets all depressed and "emo" (whatever the fuck that means).

Don't worry, it is.

Man..I dont even want to think about the chance that Bischoff gets pissed off and tries to do WCW One Night Only (or better name) with former WCW Stars.. the difference is, no-one (at least i know) wants a wcw ppv. People would have, but all the people that would have drawn are either retired/no shape to wrestle anymore. Most of the ECW guys aren't either. This is true, but the thing is that ECW went down still loved by it's fans. At least that's what I believe. When WCW died, there weren't all that many people watching.

I thought Bischoff said he didn't raid ECW's locker room. For a guy who said he wasn't going to be an onscreen character anymore, Vince sure does appear a whole lot.

The mark in me wants to see Lita, Edge, Christian, and Tomko as one stable. But that's because I'm a mark for stables.

I don't normally post in here, but I just wanted to suggest that you listen to some of Immortal Technique's stuff if you want some good political or conscious rap. In particular go download The 4th Branch and The Cause of Death. The Cause of Death is a bit iffy though because some of the stuff he says in it is kind of hard to swallow (sounds like a bunch of conspiracy theories). And if you want something out of the ordinary check out Dance with the Devil. At least for the diss track that starts up at around the 7 minute mark.

Just out of curiousity, how many people have listened to the CD? Either by downloading the tracks or buying it? From what I've listened to, it's not bad. Not bad at all. Oh and John Cena and Trademarc had a little segment on BET Now yesterday.
