    Smackdown vs. Raw 2009: News/screens

    Yea, my main gripe is that there are only 2 people available that I actually like, or would play as if it were a normal story. Jericho and Punk. The others I would never use, especially Batista and Rey as a tag team..While I'm glad it looks like were getting full, superstar specific storylines, the fact that it's only 6 superstars is pretty ridiculous. Did they think people would just not want to play as others? Did they miss the memo last year where people complained about the limited superstars you could use? I want to play through story as Orton, Edge, MVP, Kennedy, Jeff Hardy, Shelton, Kofi...looks like I can't. Saw somewhere else there may be another mode that they're hush hush about right now, but if there isn't, that list is way limited for them to be how many years into the Smackdown franchise now?

    Aronofsky's "The Wrestler"

    Aronofsky has a crazy resemblance to Christian Bale in the face.

    Actors/Actress Draft!

    Due to personal problems, he's sort of fell off the map in recent years, but there's no denying the guy was a star of the 90s, and a hell of an actor. Wesley Snipes

    90210 is coming back to tv

    1. The chick who plays Silver is really f'n hot. 2. If the guy doesn't bang her by the end of the season, I will be extremely disappointed. There seemed to be several opportunities this episode.

    I fail to see the problem. Sarcasm?

    Actors/Actress Draft!

    Pretty much my sole reason for watching The O.C. at one point, because Seth Cohen was awesome. Adam Brody Plus I've liked him in everything I've seen him in, from Mr. & Mrs Smith to yes, even, In the Land of Women, which I'm not ashamed to say I watched >_>.

    Luckily, as far as the pyro goes you can still edit entrances yourself, as far as I'm aware.

    F4W/WON WWE Notes - September 9th - 15th

    Yes, every fed, even those podunk little backyard feds, can have a "World Title" by name, which is effectively a major championship in that organization. Which is pretty much what the whole argument is about. Granted it was 2 years ago now, but when The Undertaker had his choice to face a World Champion at Wrestlemania, Cena and Batista weren't the only two standing in the ring when he made is choice. Lashley was as well. The ECW World Heavyweight Champion. As was said, you may not see it as much, but if WWE, the top federation in the world says it's a world title, it's a world title.

    Not a great deal of difference, but that was actually Trevor Murdoch's "Texas Destroyer" (evidently) and not exactly a Canadian Destroyer. Hopefully they have both.

    ECW on Sci-Fi - September 9, 2008

    If that did indeed happen, that probably means the return of Gregory Helms soon. That's how his last theme music started.

    "Problem" is now plural. For future reference.

    WWE Raw - September 8, 2008

    RAW's ratings could be noticeably higher by consistently making PPV-quality main events and announcing them a week in advance, like tonight. The roster is deep enough to support doing this. Maybe they're finally getting it. PPV-quality main events should be saved for PPV's, with rare appearances on free TV. Ratings are pretty irrelevant, except when it comes to re-upping TV contracts. They don't get money from advertising. Personally, since I don't order PPV's, I like seeing the big matches on free TV, but from a business standpoint, it's best to get fans to pay for those matches. To which then people complain about how shitty RAW is, or how there wasn't enough emphasis on wrestling that night, or they're not doing a good enough job to make people want to buy the PPVs, etc. So they're pretty much damned if they do, damned if they don't in the eyes of many fans, at least from what I've observed. I always thought the biggest match the WWE should give away on free TV would be a midcard title defense. But you can thank the Monday Night Wars for dramatically changing how Vince thinks his shows should be booked. Well if the "biggest match" on the show is to be, say....Santino vs Kofi, then what are Jericho, HBK, Batista, Punk, Orton, Kane, etc. to do during the show? Only have backstage vignettes/promos, and tag team matches?

    No. The guy is straight edge. What kind of test would he fail? They're selling Orton's Concussion Kick of Death.

    There's got to be a point where "So close!" becomes "You lost." I'm tired of Batista.

    WWE Raw - September 8, 2008

    Crowd seems dead as fuck. .... hahaha..... is that Orton's new music I'm hearing? HAHAHAAHA! OH MAN. If I'm not mistaken, he had it for months? before being injured... If not months, he had it for quite a while still. And it'll grow on you. Maybe. It works a lot better for this cold, calculating character then "HEY!"

    I wish someone would slap the shit out of Cody and get the guy some matching boots. Manu lost he fro. But got some decent looking (albeit jobber) attire.

    WWE Raw - September 8, 2008

    Man, good to see he's close to a full return. After not liking it when i first heard it, I miss this music. And it really does fit amazingly. He's got a new tattoo as well. Looks like a rose. Doesn't really fit in with the rest..

    WWE Raw - September 8, 2008

    Now isn't that some bullshit, having Rey's music played. But a nice way to get Bourne a little more over, teaming with Rey. And a hell of a match to boot.

    Evan Tanner found dead at 37

    What happened? Did he just go in the woods and like, just sit there or something? Why? (Missed all of this, obviously)

    I thought it was "Scotty Goldman" for a second.

    WWE Raw - September 8, 2008

    Rey's not exactly what he used to be, but I'm looking forward to the Bourne/Mysterio tag team match.

    I see Regal's gotten over Molly >_>.

    Regal's a little angry tonight isn't he...? Quite a bit of screaming and yelling so far.

    Another random observation, but for whatever reason, bottom of the screen says "WWE Live" now.
