Black Lushus

damn...so much for starting an Angle/Benjamin fued when it's RIGHT FUCKING THERE and there was still time to start the buildup for Summerslam...

ugh, way to build up a future WWE champ, E!

I think they'll try to have Edge and Hardy put on the "match of their lives", hoping to mirror the results of the HHH/Mick Foley battles from early 2000, the same ones that put HHH right to the top, as I said earlier...the plan, this time, being to put Edge on top...it will fail, of course, but I'm sure that's their hope...

this show is OOOOKAY, but I kinda get a "scripted like Viva La Bam" vibe from it...Hogan has gotta be the most annoying father in the world...

I hope you don't have any stalkers on this forum!

My guess is that Wheeljack talked in the original draft of the movie, but in the final one his lines were edited out but they just left his name in the credits. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> yeah, they did that same thing with Inferno and he didn't appear in the movie at all...sloppy...

Good question and what about WCW? cuz they probabyl have to edit out some of the thtems they dont have rights too, though I thought they bought the music library (but alot ofwcws themes were stock music anyhow liek Booker T's which he still has after over 12 years) Also they proabbly have to cut out any of Michael Buffers ring announcements. and about BATB 96, did they show the fan running into the ring during the Hogan promo? Cuz I hear dthey showed that on the nWo dvd, but my vhs Turner Home Video copy edited that out. And I agree Lushus on the rey/psychosis match, its one of the best PPV openers ever IMO. and The Nasty Boys/ Public Enemey match is fun, epsecially for the commetary with Dusty/Heenan/Schiavone. ("He's beating a man with a rubber shark" "Two count on the surfoboard") <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'd have to go back and watch, but I'm almost positive Buffer did NOT do the announcing...oh and the fan beatdown IS intact...I forgot all about that til I saw it again... a lot of the themes seem to be of the generic, re-done variety, as far as I can tell or recall..

I didn't know he was also Wheeljack...interesting...funny how it lists him as playing Wheeljack in the movie when the only time we see him is after he's already been shelled out...

I have a feeling they're going to go the "HHH in early 2000" route by having him wrestle a couple "memorable" matches against Matt Hardy to make him out to be the guy to fear in 2006...it won't work, of course, but I think they may go that way...

this has gotta be bullshit, right?

I think Booker T and Sharmell as heels would work really well, or is Smackdown too heel loaded already?

so far, they're only showing one Nitro, Raw and ECW show a month...I think it's ass that they do that...to me we should be getting at least 2 additions of each a WEEK...I can't wait til the hit 97, Raw was on fire that year with the HBK/Bret Hart fued, the Austin/Bret Hart fued, the Rock breaking out, the beginning of DX and HBK's last awesome heel run, a pretty good frenemies thing with Austin/HBK...damn good year for Raw...

how ironic it would be if he injured himself again at that PPV...

even though it's easy, I found the lowrider bouncing mission harder than the beach party (how many gangstas hang out on the beach anyway?)...

the raws and nitros are shown in their entirity... I've enjoyed WWE 24/7 so far...I've been able to go back and record some PPVs I've missed over the years...Bash At The Beach 96 is on there right now, overall it's not that great but it does feature a FANTASTIC Rey Mysterio/Psychosis match and of course it's the infamous Hogan heel turn night, so it's good to have for historical purposes... Right now, the History of ECW series is focusing on 94, the times before it really started to pick up...

exactly, they had to hammer it home that Obi-Wan was badass...

All-time Favorites: Warrior-debut thru 92 run, I loved the guy, what can I say Randy Savage-WWF heel years, especially during his IC title reign and post WWF title run (the first one), heels today WISH they could be like he was back then. Never cared for him once he hit WCW. HBK-he was awesome in 94 and 95, went stale thru 96 and then became awesome again during his DX run. I don't like him anymore, but we'll see what this new heel turn does for him. Rey Mysterio-always loved watching him, now I'm hoping for a world title at least once in his career. Ahmed Johnson-from his debut in 95 to the time he completely fell apart in 97, this guy gave me high hopes. Shelton Benjamin-didn't really notice him until he came to Raw because I never watched Smackdown, but damn did he impress me right away. He'd be better with a heel turn and a person to speak for him. Sting-"The Man Called Sting" era, never cared for Crow Sting. Vader-this dude was kick ass until the WWE completely ruined him in 97-98. 96 was a great year for him, then HBK whined and got his way, pretty much started to go downhill at that point. Davey Boy Smith-don't know what it was about the guy, but I liked him and I think he should have one the world title at least once in 95...that year was so dismal anyway, it wouldn't have mattered. The Rock-I liked him his first few years (okay post Rocky Miavia era), then he started to bore me...I like his sporadic appearances, but I could live without a fulltime schedule from him. Steve Austin-96 to 98, loved him, then he started to bore me...sure he had great matches after 98, but the character was just getting too dull for my taste. Kurt Angle-puts on great matches and is actually really funny as well. One of those guys who can drag a great match out of any slug they throw in there with him. Potential Favorites: Randy Orton-I know people shit on this guy, but he's great as a heel and I hold out that he'll eventually be one of the all-time great ones. Carlito-sure his ringwork is mediocre right now, but damn that dude cracks me up. Batista-I like him, but he's not yet an all-time favorite...if he can squeeze out some good matches, then we'll see.

that was a damn fine soundtrack, wasn't it?

The ark originally crashed in Seattle, Washington...I would imagine most of the stories centered around the northwest portion of the country...one or two took place in NYC when Megatron tried to turn it into another Cybertron...the hate plague storyline took place all over the country...of course a lot of the stories took place on other planets as well... what I'm more concerned with is what storyline they follow because anything other than the original is ass...I'm sure they'll do something original, but hopefully they don't stray TOO far from Generation One...

What I was told was that the chat program I had (yahoo) had virus scans that cancelled out the good virus scans my computer already had, thus leaving it practically wide open for anyone to fuck with at anytime...computer guy told me to never install yahoo again...but who knows with these other cases...

you'll have to get a new harddrive...exact same shit happened to me, EXACTLY what you just described...

I can't remember, I think you DO go back to Los Santos for a couple of missions (you take over that rapper's mansion) before Wuzzy calls you to get back to Las Venturas for the final mission there... you'd KNOW if you did the casino hiest, it's easily one of the coolest missions in any GTA game...

Bills look pretty much as expected....awesome defense, unproven offense...the QB rating must really bring down the overall offense rating in these games. I mean, McGahee has gotta be at least an 85 and their top two recievers (Moulds and Evans) have to be up there somewhere as well...Losman is probably pushing 70...

^ EXACTLY!

I'm telling ya Jed, we'll all get the last laugh when he's canned again within a year...
