Dangerous A

I heard that take today on Rome's show. Nothing new. He doesn't like wrestling, but he didn't come off nearly as crass as that one ESPN Radio guy from a few weeks ago.

Just so I get where you're coming from, you want to put Haas in the "heel against his wishes" role?

So does HHH and WWE start exploiting Ric Flair's latest turmoil with the law and his wife tonight or will they wait until later in the month?

For me, it's Dwayne Wade and LeBron James for the NBA. I used to be this way for Anfernee Hardaway when he was with Orlando in the early-mid 90's. In the NFL, I'd say LT, Michael Vick, and Ray Lewis.

Narnia will knock off GoF this weekend. Has anyone seen Sarah Silverman's "Jesus is Magic"? I want to see it, but want a recommendation or two before hitting the art house.

That is the one of the few plausible scenario's for Gayda to be there and involved with Jarrett. If they play it like Jarrett is some kind of player, they will have ruined Gayda's debut. I really hope it leads to a Charlie Haas debut at Turning Point.

Isn't it the universal sign for vagina?

The word around other boards is Hemme's 1st year on her Diva Search contract ran up and the second year is probrably not guaranteed. WWE probrably tried to negotiate the second year, which is optional, at a lower salary and she said no. Similar to the Puder deal where only the first of the deal is guaranteed and after that, it's in WWE's hands. That sounds like the most plausible answer to this.

Agreed. That is why this news is out of nowhere. While she wasn't any good in the ring by any means, she drastically improved and gave a shit about doing good. She also had a ton of enthusiasm for what she was doing. The Playboy curse continues. Except Torrie, and she'll be gone in a year or less, bank on it.

That was sudden.

Here is a little blurb from the Observer about American Dragon Bryan Danielson that makes me admire the guy... That shit is fucking cool. Just a guy who cares about his craft and one of the smartest and most intense workers in the business today. I hope he gets a Joe-like run with the ROH title. That is some Benoit type shit right there in terms of him changing shit up so it doesn't get stale. Hats off to Bryan Danielson. Why TNA or WWE haven't offered you a contract, I have no clue, but they are fools.

With nothing good on the horizon the next month, I don't think it's too late for year end favorites/best. You know the drill. Who or what is the best in WWE 2005. Please keep these to WWE only as I will be starting a General Wrestling 2005 Year End thread to cover everything. Wrestler of the Year Feud of the Year Match of the Year Best Brawler Best High Flier Best Tag Team Most Underrated Most Overrated Best Promos Best PPV Worst PPV and stolen from the WON... Most disgusting promotional tactic You have your template. During the Christmas break, I may tally the results up.

Probrably because it was the most recent of the nominees and there are still feelings resonating from it.

Vyce, you hit it on the head for me. I am also not totally anti-sports entertainment and I know that pro wrestling in the U.S. has to have elements of drama and comedy to it. That said, I know that can be had without having to resort to death and shock tv tactics. It just gets embarassing after awhile. And Darthtiki, they were some neighbors from around the way that were talking with the wife and happened to catch what I was watching.

Edited for accuracy. Burn. Second best Post of the day.

uh...no.

No

I will gladly accept donations starting right now.

Austin was actually at Eddie's funeral. Some people will think that means he had a very good friendship with Eddie seeing as Austin didn't even attend Pillman's funeral, but that just means Austin wasn't as attached to Eddie as he was Pillman, so he could probrably attend this one without totally losing it. That said, I think they were probrably just good friends/acquaintances, not on the level of Benoit or Mysterio .

Kevin N. , eh? Someone angling for a job again? If those are real, this is further proof most wrestling fans have not fully evolved.

Edited for accuracy Post of the day.

Didn't he get into a fight with someone backstage over this? Actually Jamal got released for an out of the ring incident where he fought a bunch of cops.

I want to know Kurt's definition of "perfect health".

While a lot of the IWC dream match right now is Samoa Joe vs Chris Benoit, I think a Bryan Danielson vs Chris Benoit match would be more fun.

The reason Siaki was more over back during the SEX days was because he was allowed to be a character and got mic time to get over. He doesn't get that mic time now. So why are fans supposed to care what happens to his character when they just stop him dead in his tracks? This applies for everyone on the roster who doesn't get proper mic time. Siaki is good, but not great in the ring. That can be said about over half the roster. Still, I wonder if he's already damaged enough to where the fans will ever accept him as anything other than a jobber at this point.
