Oh my god, shut the fuck up. This is WRESTLING. There have been racist angles for god knows how long. Nobody should be offended by this shit. Watch Dawson's Creek if you're going to piss your pants over something stupid like this.

I would have prefered Tanaka/Balls Mahoney but oh well.

I don't think WWE would do that. An ECW event competing with Survivor Series? I like ECW being back and even *I* think that would be a bad idea for WWE. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> FYI, there's more than one Sunday in November.

It's not the high. MLB has never come close to 7.5 on cable.

the ecw finish and the competition probably killed the rating

God like push with all those clean wins, right. Bradshaw's the best promo man in wrestling right now. Sure, he's an asshole but that's the nature of the wrestling business. This was hilarious. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Maybe six montsh ago he was the best promo guy around. But he has been saying the same promo for 6 months now. Now he is HHH stale. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I don't recall you praising Bradshaw's promo work six months ago. Don't you have a Shawn Michaels thread to post in?

HHH has an opportunity to make both Cena and Batista as the future of the WWE right now. But sadly, it's not going to happen.

Michaels is a HORRIBLE face. Triple H is boring now and can never be a face again in his current character. Angle's face work was ok, in my opinion. Of the three, he's easily the most Flair like.

What the fuck are you talking about? All that's going to happen is ECW is going shitkick Bischoff and Angle's teams. There is no big angle being planned here. Buildup is smart if they want anyone to actually buy the PPV and want the PPV to be a success. Vince is right in this situation.

He won't be on the WWE's show.

Punk can actually talk. So he'd have a chance to rise above the Cruiserweight level. AJ can't do that.

Depends on the deal offered. AJ turned down aWWE developmental deal as TNA allowed him to spend more time at home with his wife, be a 'top' guy, or at least far far higher on the card than he'd get in WWE, and take Indie bookings so he can make pretty much the same if not more than the money WWE offered for a developmental deal. Doesn't strike me as being such a dumb ass choice. AJ doesn't really have much of a chance outside of WWE's cruiserweight division. Punk, Joe and Danielson do.

If they choose TNA over WWE, they're fucking retarded.

You shouldn't be ashamed for doing worse than that. Dixie's very attractive. Unless you're talking about Trinity, who's a beast.

No, people were drawn in my the mystery person Mankind had under a sheet which ended up being a clown. That's what drew the number. Everyone was expecting a big swerve or big debut.

He's better than almost all at cutting serious promos. I don't know what the fuck you're talking about.

He's an all-purpose jobber.

24 Finale. Pistons/Heat.

Let me guess. You only like guys who can be funny on the mic like Jericho? And if they're not funny on the mic (jokes about other wrestlers and such), they're not good on the mic.

Your idea is pretty shit too, buddy. What they did today builds to the PPV nicely. Stop your unnecessary bitching.

Some network would want Smackdown. With the ratings it gets, there will be takers.

No difference whatsoever.

Benoit has connected with the fans because of his in-ring work because that's all he has. He doesn't have anything else to fall back on. Anything else that would ever make him connect with the fans. Booker, RVD, Jericho and a lot of others do. And those people are/were more deserving to get a shot then Benoit.

He's a good wrestler. Nobody's saying otherwise about Benoit. But there is no magical fan connection that puts him in another tier than Booker, Jericho and RVD. Those three happen to have characters which are far more interesting than Benoit's. They still get cheered. They're still over. But HHH sent them to the midcard because they are threats to his position. Benoit isn't because he doesn't have what it takes to carry a federation. I like how you say Benoit has charisma but can't even come close to pointing it out. There is no charisma secret to understand. Benoit is bland. RVD and Batista are shitty mic workers. But they have charisma that gets them over without being able to talk. Benoit doesn't have that. Benoit's great in the ring and should be used in the midcard because he doesn't have what it takes to carry a company (as opposed to Jericho, Booker). He'd be a good candidate for a program with Benjamin to help put him over, IMO.
