No, RVD isn't talented enough in the ring nor good enough on the mic. RVD's spotty repetative matches belong in the mid-card.

I don't get what was so bad about this show? An exciting opening match, an OK 3-way IC title match, a great Eddie-Angle match, a surprisingly good Taker-JBL match and a great Benoit-Orton match where Benoit puts the new champion over clean. And Eugine-Trips wasn't even THAT bad, I've seen a lot of people here riding the Eugene bandwagon lately and it now seems everyone hates him again since the Toronto crowd booed him.

You say X-Pac heat....but what if it's Rocky heat? What if Edge turns heel, and that's his ticket to the top? It's very possible, and I am a bit sick of people claiming that heat for a wrestler that isnt' generally liked by the IWC is "X-Pac heat". Get over yourselves. And not getting the reactions from injury is PERFECT motivation for Edge to turn heel. Quite frankly, fans haven't been given a reason to cheer him other than "he's a good guy!". It's not Rocky heat because Edge has been around for a long time. Rocky was just getting started and people turned on him quickly, Edge has been both heel and face, and in that has been both serious heel and funny heel, and serious face and funny face, so it's not like there's something for him to turn to(like there was for Rock).

There's a BIG difference in 1996 Austin and John Bradshaw Layfield I'm just using the comparison because Austin was a midcarder/tag team wrestler in WCW and then when he got to the WWE was basically a lower midcarder as The Ringmaster, but people gave him a chance.

I think Edge has reached the point where turning him heel won't matter now. People just don't like him, period. He's got X-Pac syndrome, IMO. Even when he first came back from injury the pop was relatively quiet and he's never really gotten any sort of big pops since he returned. A successful heel turn, IMO, needs the guy to be successful as a face before turning, and right now if Edge is hated as a face why are fans going to be into him when he actually IS a heel?

The problem is they have that attitude without giving themselves a chance to get into the JBL character. If people had that same attitude in 1996 then Steve Austin would have been a lifelong WWE midcarder.

Jericho is teetering. He's very over but not quite over enough to be the top guy, IMO. Of course being the most popular guy doesn't always matter, and as far as performance goes Jericho deserves to the top guy.

I have no problem with the crowd booing and cheering who they like, but when they boo all the faces and cheer the heels, and generally shit all over the matches just for the sake of looking cool or "hip", which is what it seemed like to me, it pisses me off. So what if they don't like JBL, give the guy a fucking chance. They shit on that match from the get-go and it turned out to be a damn good match but the crowd never realized it because they were too busy jerking each other off. And about JBL.. why all the hate? He's done a complete turnaround in his gimmick and IMO, is entertaining now. Even if you don't think he's worthy of being a champion, he at least deserves a shot to try to PROVE to you that he is worthy. As someone mentioned in the SS thread, the crowd was pretty much copying the cheers other members of the crowd did. Eugene was mostly over when he first came out and then as it went on more and more of the crowd begin booing until everyone did. Same thing with the Benoit-Orton match, as the match went on more people cheered Orton so now the whole crowd was into him by the end.

I can't imagine Stewart leaving, he's set pretty well at the Daily Show. It might not be that bad a move for Conan considering that Letterman probably doesn't have too much time on the air left and Conan could move into his timeslot when he leaves, however on the other hand CBS seems like more of a "Traditional" network and I don't know if Conan would be able to do a lot of the stuff he does now. The best candidates I can think of are Jimmy Kimmell or Carson Daly, I don't see why the hell anyone thinks Dave Chapelle, Chris Rock, Will Ferrell or any really big name like that would do it.

The HBK-HHH promo on RAW leading up to their Summerslam match(HBK's comeback match). HHH was revealed as the guy who attacked HBK, and it was just hilarious because HBK was trying to be so serious during this promo. "I have to show my son that sometimes.... it's OK to fight!" "You know, the doctor said I should be healthy and ready to come back in a couple of months.... maybe around.. ohhh.... SUMMERSLAM!!! <serious look into camera> I taped that and watched it about 10 times over and over that night and couldn't stop laughing.

That sounds awesome. Also sounds like it's going to cost WAYYYYYYYYYY too much for my liking..

WWE RAW 9/6/04 Pyro's explode throughout the arena as WWE RAW begins. Jim Ross: Hello everybody this is Jim Ross here with Jerry The King Lawler and what an explosive night of action we've got for you here tonight. Just announced was a 3-way main event tonight for the Intercontinental Title with Randy Orton defending against Chris Jericho and Edge, who came to blows last week in the highlight reel! Let's not forget Randy Orton will be facing Chris Benoit for the World Title at Unforgiven, and the rabid wolverine will be in the building tonight as well as he goes one on one in a non-title bout with Dave Batista! Jerry Lawler: I can't wait JR, this is gonna be great! "The Game" hits as Triple H makes his way to the ring to a chorus of boos Triple H: You know I don't have much to say here right off the bat. What I'd like to say is that last week I came out here and said some things about my buddy Eugene that I'd like to apologize for. And if he could just come out here right now, that would be fantastic.. Triple H waits for a little bit and nothing happens Triple H: Eugene you don't know how bad this makes me feel. We're pals, all I want to do is say sorry. Triple H waits a little while longer, and finally Eugene's music hits. The crowd goes nuts as he makes his way out. He looks very nervous coming down the rampway and is aprehensive to get in the ring once he reaches the apron. Finally he gets in with a scared look in his eyes HHH: Now Eugene buddy, like I said, I just wanted the chance to apologize. This isn't something I do often, you understand? I'm Triple H.. The Game... The Cerebral Assassin.. The Franchise Player in the WWE. I dont have to kiss anyone's ass. But Eugene I realize you're a.... how should I say without offending anyone.... "special person". I know you look up to me, and I know you don't mean to do the things you do, they just happen. The way I see it, you might have cost me the belt against Chris Benoit, but a belt is just a belt. Belts come and go Eugene, but friendships don't, and I think our friendship is strong. At this point the crowd doesn't know what to make of this, they half think HHH is bullshitting and half think he's sincere. Eugene what I'd like to say is I'm sorry, and I know I was your favorite wrestler... and I can tell you right now you're my favorite, do you think we can be buddies again? I never wanted to wrestle you Eugine, it was just the heat of the moment. I'm not going to wrestle you at Unforgiven. So what do you think pal? Eugene's aprehension turns to a smile as he says into the mic, Triple H you're the best!!! Triple H and Eugene hug and raise their hands in the air as the crowd cheers HHH: Friends 'till the end Eugene, me and you... Suddenly Triple H turns and kicks Eugine in the gut, then hits him with the PEDIGREE!! Oh my! Eugene is flat on his stomach in the middle of the ring, not moving as Triple H stands over him staring down with an eerily sadistic facial expression HHH: Like I said, I'm not going to wrestle you at Unforgiven...Triple H gets on his knees and kneels down close to Eugene's ear.. what I'm actually going to do is beat you within an inch of your stupid, worthless life. Triple H spits on Eugene as he stands up See ya around... "buddy". William Regal comes running from the back weilding a chair. Triple H heads for the hills through the crowd as Regal looks like he's ready to maim The Game. Regal stop and checks on the fallen Eugine Jim Ross: What a sick sadistic, son of a bitch that Triple H is. King, I've seen a lot of terrible things in my life but that just might be the worst. The way Triple H is taking advantage of this innocent young man is down right rephrensible! Lawler: I agree JR.. you know I like Triple H, the guy is as good as it gets, but frankly this is disgusting. Commercial JR: Well we're back and King, I still can't get over what just happened to poor Eugene. World Tag Team Title Match La Resistance© vs. Rhyno and Tajiri Grenier scoops and slams Tajiri.

The Camera cuts to backstage with Randy Orton, who is standing holding his I-C title with The Coach The Coach: Randy tell me, what are your thoughts on having to defend your I-C title in a 3-way match against Y2J and Edge tonight? Randy Orton: My thoughts? I think it's bullcrap. You heard what Ric said earlier, Evolution wants all the gold. This is our show Coach.. this isn't Bischoff's show, it's not Vince's show, it's not the fan's show.. it's Evolutions show, and as far as we're concerned nobody else matters. Now right now, I'm slated to face Chris Benoit at Unforgiven, and frankly Coach, I feel I should be given the proper amount of resting time before that match to clear my head and train for the biggest match of my career. But no.. I'm being put in a grueling triple threat match tonight for my I-C title, and quite frankly Coach, I think it's because the WWE is scared. The WWE big wigs are scared of what Evolution is and what we're going to be. No worries though, because there's no chance in hell I'm leaving this arena tonight without my title.

Does anyone else feel that TNA is repeatedly shooting themselves in the foot with World Title feuds? How are they ever supposed to compete with the WWE when every bum that leaves the WWE is automatically thrown into the title picture in NWA TNA? Now it's Jeff Hardy, who was nothing more than a mid-card tag team wrestler in the WWE. A guy who has no wrestling talent and no mic talent, and doesn't have the ability to get anyone who isn't a teenage girl to cheer for him. How are fans supposed to see TNA as anything more than the WWE's annoying little sister when they'll just take a mid-carder, a guy who never really had any singles success, and throw them right into a World Title feud? I think it's a slap in the face to guys like Raven, Ron Killings(who was also a WWE "reject", but TNA has repackaged him over time and sort of made him "their own"), and AJ Styles who are much more deserving of this spot. Plus, TNA is sitting on a gold mine with a homegrown talent in Monty Brown. If they'd ever realize to push this guy as a face, and get him in a feud with Jarrett he could be huge. It just pisses me off that he got pushed to the side for Hardy.

That was real? Why wouldn't Vince or whoever is running the phones just hang up on him?

This takes up where last week's real life Smackdown ended... WWE Smackdown Thursday, September 2nd, 2004 Michael Cole: What an exciting Smackdown we've got for you tonight folks! Kurt Angle's first match since Wrestlemania, and a Triangle match to see who faces John Cena at Unforgiven for the United States title! Pyros explode as the show begins. Eddie Guerrero's music hits and he comes down to the ring, absent is his trademark lowrider. He has a serious look on his face as he grabs a mic. Eddie chants echo through the arena. Eddie Guerrero: Homies let me tell you something.. last week I heard some of the best news I've heard in a long time. I heard that.. Kurt Angle was fired as General Manager and made an active wrestler again. That was music to my ears because Kurt, let me tell you something essey vato, ever since you got that job, you've made my life a nightmare brother. And it all came to a head at the Great American Bash when you STOLE.. STOLE.. MY title, from me, and gave it to JBL. Thats basically what you did holmes, you took it out of my hands, and gave it to him. Because I know, and all my people in this arena know JBL damn sure didn't win that match essey. But hey.. that's in the past, what can I do about that? I can't change it holmes, you know what I mean, so I've got to move ahead to now. That's why Kurt, since you're able to wrestle again and everything.. you're little neck is feeling better, maybe since you're man enough to steal my title, you should be man enough to get in the ring and wrestle me at Unforgiven? I'm throwing the challenge out there homie, and when you're ready to answer you know where to find me. Enough about that though. Tonight we all know.. Kurt Angle steps in the ring for the very first time since Wrestlemania XXX, where I beat his sorry ass 1-2-3 right in the middle of this ring. And let me tell you something homies, I wouldn't miss that for the world.. in fact, watching it from the back ain't even gonna do it justice, cause I plain on being right down here at ringside to watch hit ALLL unfold. Good luck Kurt, and I'll be looking for that answer to my challenge tonight. Eddie throws down the Mic as his music plays, he leaves back to the dressing room [commercial] Tazz: Those were strong words by Eddie. So whaddya think Cole, will Kurt respond tonight? Cole: Well that remains to be seen, but we do know he's wrestling tonight, so he is in the building. Next up folks we're going to see an exciting new team in action, the WWE Tag Team champs Paul London and Billy Kidman! WWE Tag Team Title Match Paul London and Billy Kidman vs. The Basham Brothers Billy Kidman hits a rolling kick on Basham. Weird kick by Kidman on Basham. Tag to Paul London. Flying elbow from Paul London. 1 - 2 - no 3 though. Really cool stunner-type thing out of the corner from Paul London, Basham might be dead. Tag to Billy Kidman.

Kidman and London go into the crowd, where they celebrate their win. Winners: Paul London and Billy Kidman As London and Kidman head to the back, the camera pans to Michael Cole and Tazz who begin talking, but are interrupted by someone talking to them through their earpieces. Michael Cole: Tazz we've gotten word that something is going down backstage.. I... I'm not sure what it is.. can we get a camera back there? We cut to the back and see Kidman and London laid out on the floor. The Dudley's are stomping away at them and hitting them with whatever they can find. Bubba yells to them that they are a disgrace to the title, and their win was a complete fluke. D-Von says revenge will belong to the Dudley's. [commercial for WWE Unforgiven, LIVE Sunday September 27th only on PPV] Billy Gunn vs. Mordecai Mordecai takes a headbutt from Billy Gunn. Flying shoulder tackle by Billy sends Mordecai to the mat. Spear by Billy Gunn. Billy Gunn scores with a standing spinebuster. Mordecai can barely stand. Fame-Ass-Er!!! That shook the ring. 1....2....3!! Billy Gunn goes into the crowd, where he celebrates his victory Winner: Billy Gunn We see JBL's limo arriving as we cut to commercial.. [commercials] JBL's music hits as he enters the ring dressed from head to toe in a suit and Cowboy hat, holding the WWE Title on his shoulder. Michael Cole: Well folks The Undertaker isn't in the building tonight, but JBL is, we'll hear what he has to say next! JBL: Well I see the Undertaker likes to come out and make challenges huh? He wants a piece of John Bradshaw Layfield at Unforgiven? Let me tell you something son, do you think I'm afraid of you? Do you think JBL is afraid of you? Apparently, listening to tools like Michael Cole, I'm supposed to be. But why? I'm a successful business man.. I'm a WWE Champion.. and frankly let's face it, I'm not some little mexican jumpin' bean like Rey Mysterio. I can hold my own against any sumbitch you want to throw out there. The fact of the matter is I ain't afraid of no man, and if The Undertaker was here tonight I'd beat him from here to the other side of town. And yes I realize Michael Cole just said The Undertaker wasn't here tonight, but the fact is I'd be saying this even if that tall sack of crap was here tonight. JBL grins to the crowd. See I got nothin' to be scared of, in fact if anyone should be scared it's The Undertaker. Heck, I reckon he is scared, and that's why he ain't here tonight. I figure incase he's sitting in whatever little dungeon he picked tonight with a TV, and is watching this, he outta see what a real man fight's like. That's why tonight I'm putting my belt on the line in a very special challenge match. I hand picked my opponent tonight.. all the way from Ohio Valley Wrestling..a fine young lad.. Chris Masters! There is no reaction from the crowd as the 19 year old trainee makes his way to the ring with generic Smackdown music. John Bradshaw Layfield vs. Chris Masters This match was very short. JBL Didn't even take his suit off. Chris Masters was agressive in attacking him with an array of punches. Masters tried to get an advantage by coming off the ropes for a clothesline but JBL gave him a boot to the face sending him right down. When Masters got up he was met by the Clothesline from Hell for an easy 1-2-3. Winner: John Bradshaw Layfield JBL grabs the mic again, without having even broken a sweat. JBL: Phew I'll tell ya, that sucker almost got me. Undertaker I may have a harder time with you then I thought. HAHA... Well you get the pictu.... All of the sudden the lights go pitch black, as Rey Mysterio's music hits. The lights stay dark as we hear JBL again JBL: .. what the? Now damnit I only said one match. Rey I'm sorry if you took offense to that Mexican Jumpin' Bean comment but you're just going to have to wait your turn son. The Lights stay dark for a few more seconds, they finally come on and THE UNDERTAKER is standing across the ring from JBL! JBL: I...uhhh...I...............JBL drops the mic and quickly leaves via the crowd, The Undertaker stares menacingly at him as the crowd goes nuts #1 Contenders Match for Cruiserweight Title Chavo Guerrero vs. Shannon Moore Standing kicky thing by Chavo Guerrero on Shannon.

Winner: Rob Van Dam Kurt Angle is shown coming to the ring for his first match back. Cole: Kurt Angle's first match back is next, and we've just learned his opponent will be Charlie Haas! [commercial] "I Lie, I Cheat, I Steal" hits as Eddie Guerrero comes back down to ringside, this time to join Tazz and Michael Cole at the announce table. Eddie: What's up homies! I cannot wait to see this! Kurt Angle vs. Charlie Haas Charlie Haas is first to come out.. Kurt comes last. Charlie Haas steps outside of the ring when the bell rings and heads over to where the ring announcer sits. Kurt Angle has a confused look on his face, Charlie Haas takes the ring announcers chair and folds it up. He gets on the apron and points at Angle telling him he's going to use it on him. Angle is still confused.. he can be seen telling Haas to "put the chair down and fight like a man" Haas drops back off the apron again still staring at Angle. He is standing in front of the announce table. Suddenly he turns around and nails Eddie Guerrero with the chair at the announce table! The chair hits Eddie smack dab in the face and he falls to his side bleeding. Angle quickly joins Haas and they begin kicking and punching Eddie who is in the fetal position by the announce table. Angle grabs a mic and tells Eddie if he wants him at Unforgiven, then it's on!! The crowd boos as Haas and Angle leaving high fiving each other. Paul Heyman joins them at the top of the entrance and they all raise their hands together. [show ends] EDIT: From now on Match Reports will be done by Dames(I forgot to edit it to him before I started), occasionaly I will do the match reports when needed for an angle or if its a big match.

Hey just wanted to reply that I'm liking this as well. I'm starting up a diary of my own so I always enjoy reading these. It's a bit odd to see Undertaker in the middle of a feud between RVD-Booker-Cena, but I'm interested in seeing where it goes. I'm guessing Eddie will interfere somehow to start the feud with Booker T.

Did that John Heidenreich vignette remind anyone else of Zoolander when Mugatu is trying to brainwash Zoolander into killing the Mylasian prime minister? Um... just an observation.

Just to add this in.. I have decided to start with the current angles the WWE is running, just so I can use them as my starting point and then expand to the ideas I have from there. By that I mean, I'm going to basically be starting where the last episode's of RAW and Smackdown left off. The only difference is the game started me off in September, who's PPV is Unforgiven, not Summerslam. Therefore, I've decided to make Unforgiven an interpromotional event so I can get started the way I want to start. Quite a lot to process, but it will all work out. Also shows will not be posted the same day as the actual show takes place in the real world(RAW on monday, SD on Thursday), just whenever I get them done.

I'd say the fact that he's outpopped Shelton, Edge, and Jericho at various situations since Backlash is what they're talking about. At this point he isn't even really a heel anymore. He doesn't help out in Evolution beatdowns, he's cheered by the fans, it's just a matter fo time with him. Orton gets the face pops because there always the people that want to be cool, hip or whatever and chear the bad guys. Plus he's starting to get the very beginning of what I call " early notsgolia pops". He's getting affection because he's been around the block a little. Exactly. I see Orton as someone who gets pops as a heel because fans want to stand out and cheer the bad guy, or they just like his cocky heel character. But when he turns face, he's not going be quite as over as the WWE thinks,

Shawn Michaels and Triple H get mentioned the most on TV as "Grand Slam" champions, but I've realized it's actually Eddie Guerrero who seems to have held the most titles. He's been a WWE European Champion, a WWE Intercontinental Champion, WCW and WWE United States champion, WCW Cruiserweight Champion, WWE Tag Team Champion and WWE World Champion.. basically he's held more titles than any of the other "Grand Slam" winners, yet it never gets mentioned.

Scorpio has always been fantasting in the ring and a great arial wrestler for his size(which is not fat, but husky). He didn't have a great look but he could have been better than he was without the gimmicks. One thing that didn't help him was drug problems he's seemed to battle with much of his career.

Daaaaamn the Cubs bent Boston over and gave it to them with no lube on this one. How do you trade a freaking All-Star SS for essentially.. depth? You've got to get Clement in that deal. They trade Nomar for average players, don't get rid of Lowe, and don't get a starting pitcher. How can Boston consider this good?

That was a lame play on words. He's a good young hitter and I'd rather have him than Steve Finley. To the guy above you.. yes Lo Duca is the heart and soul, but at some point you have to do what's best to win. Lo Duca is a 2nd half choker traditionally and is doing it again this year. LA used him in his good 1st half and is now sending him off... it sounds cold and cruel.. but ya gotta do what ya gotta do. One thing people are forgetting also is this trade frees up much needed cash for next year to re-sign Beltre and Gagne.

You act like Johnson is some liability on defense. He's tradtionally been one of the best defenders in baseball. He's not what he once was but he's not terrible. Lo Duca has never been a great defender, so I don't think the defense there is going to skip a beat. Lo Duca is the heart and soul of the team and I will miss him.. but he was falling into another 2nd half slump. He does it every year. Mota was at the peak of his trade value. He's been struggling lately and Paul DePodesta buys into the moneyball philosophy which is relievers are a dime a dozen. Dreifort can fill the setup role, or they can call up Yhancy Brazoban who is basically a young Mota. I like the rotation with Johnson. There are some wildcards and big IF's with Ishii and Lima, but the Cardinals aren't exactly sporting an all-star rotation either. Honestly.. I'd rather they didn't do the Johnson/Finley trade. They would just be giving up far too much. I'm content with the team as it is now.
