minor annoyance: They just list wrestler's name twice or more, instead of putting what reign number it is in parentheses.

That's kind of interesting. I never thought about this, especially the fact that it could definitely effect workrate and match pacing. Edit: Form Lance's Q&A last month on his website: Q: Are any guys on the roster Smokers, and if so does it affect their performance? A: I think I’ve seen Big Show smoke once but with that possible exception, I don’t think any of the boys do. Vince is VERY anti-smoking, and most arenas are non-smoking so it wouldn’t be easy to smoke at work anyway. A lot of Japanese wrestlers smoke. I was amazed at home many of them did when I worked over there. I imagine it would be very detrimental to your wind in a match as smoking is very bad for your lungs. This business is hard enough on your body without further destroying it by smoking. Good job Vince.

It's good enough to get me to watch Smackdown for the first time in over a year, though.

You say it like he's not going to just win it back at NYR again.

Indeed.

best. markout. moment. ever.

*looks at it* That is awesome.

Armageddon 2003: Randy Orton vs. RVD Armageddon 2003: Triple H vs. Goldberg vs. Kane Armageddon 2002: Big Show vs. Kurt Angle In Your House, 12/17/95: Bret Hart vs. British Bulldog In Your House, 12/15/96: Undertaker vs. Executioner In Your House, 12/6/97: Steve Austin vs. The Rock In Your House, 12/6/97: Butterbean vs. Marc Mero Bret/Bulldog looks like the only thing worth noting. AS far as I can remember, it's the only one that's around ***

FUNAKI WENT OVER?! *dances* That by far makes the show. ..........Indeed.

Easy guys.

It's been a long long time (longer than 5 years, I believe) since I've seen that match, so I can't really say.

What does the F in F-5 stand for? Anything?

!?

^agrees I'm not so much a fan of the KOTR match, but Survivor Series is definitely up there with shawn/sid as far as excellent big man little man matches go.

I'm more worried about Taker in a 35 minute match than Booker. 'Taker has gone 35 minutes on a few occasions. Booker hasn't and I don't think he is the worker capable of it. Yes I did forget the Highly ancipated Spike/Funaki match...hopefully so did WWE. Oh, you know you'd mark out if you heard that Funaki was the new Cruiserweight Champion. Indeed.

Hardcore Holly and Sparky plug in a stable together? Cursed clones.

I believe the proper phrase would be "more winded" Unless we're talking about Pete gas wrestling tow matches in one night, in which case there would be more gas.

Earthquake vs. Shark vs. Avalanche Okay, someone needs to do one for Brutus Beefcake. THe Brutus Beefcake elimination chamber

Pretty much. It's a major comment on the quality of the show when no one viewing the thread about it reports what's going on.

Are you kidding, XXI's main event will obviously be Vince McMahon vs. Vince Mcmahon, as Vince would clone himself first.

Vince figured out cloning? So when do we get HHH vs. HHH for the title? Angle vs. Angle in his hometown challenge at No Way Out. Now that, that was funny. *gives points to Phenom* edit: *points ot Looneytunes also*

Vince figured out cloning? So when do we get HHH vs. HHH for the title?

So, did anyone actually order the show? I'm interested in seeing the buyrate for this, as I personally can't see it being above 150-175,000. Especiially when taboo Tuesday did what? 195,000 buys?

Edit: thanks.

Might as well make this the thread for the show as well. Then again, I don't really think anyone ordered the show.
