Dangerous A

It's not like the guys were big draws since 1998 anyway. Vince handled Invasion as well as it could be handled. He was just stuck with a company lots of people loathed laden with talent too green for the position they were in. This wasn't nearly the level of NWA fucking over UWF. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I have to disagree. Once Vince booked the Invasion to be a total squash by WWE and fans picked up on it, that's when the ball rolled downhill. The huge Invasion PPV buyrate shows people were interested in the concept, but after that show, once they portrayed all the WCW and ECW players as second rate citizens and pushed Stone Cold and the McMahon kids as the puppet masters, the thing fell flat on it's face.

I don't think you have anything to fear in a repeating as far as AJ and Daniels is concerned. They have enough carte blanche in the company to do whatever to have a blowaway match and Daniels is too smart to just repeat the same match they did earlier in the year.

Seeing WWE counter TNA in 30 min Iron Man matches, I had to wonder which match do you all think will be better? I would've posted this in General Wrestling, but they don't have the Poll option. Mods, feel free to move this unless you feel it's appropriate here in WWE folder.

Chad Johnson is now the most entertaining WR in all of football. Carson Palmer is the real deal. And this is coming from a Redskins fan. Glad to see a club like the Bengals finally getting good. I'm also a Marvin Lewis mark. Bills losing Takeo Spikes for the year is huge. While the Pats won, if Rodney Harrison is down for the year, the Pats will be in bigger trouble than they think. Although I hate them, great meddle by the Cowboys coming back on the Niners like that after the devastating loss last Monday. (although it is the Niners, not THAT big of a feat Raiders have talent to beat anyone any given week, but I believe because a lot of the pieces are new, they haven't learned how to win together yet. Cadillac Williams is a freakin man. Nuff said. Back of the future.

Just wrapped up the latest installment of the Danger Zone. Sorry to all for the delay. My little sister just got married recently and I recently got a better sound editing program to record the show with that I haven't mastered yet because of all the wedding stuff (Sorry Nice Guy Adam, haven't had the chance to use your spots yet, but not to worry, they'll be used very soon). Well I'm back now and looking to give you TSM'ers the weekly wrestling radio show you all know and love. This time however, I have a guest with me the entire show. This guest is a prominent poster here at TSM and I was fortunate enough to get them to do the show. Since the show went on hiatus the last 3 weeks or so, things have really picked up in the pro wrestling world. Some of the things my guest and I touch on the new show are... Spike TV/UFC vs USA/WWE- Monday Night "War" Part 2? TNA debut on Spike TV and Jeff Jarrett's NWA title win before the debut Brock Lesnar in NJPW- the ramifications for NJPW as well as for NA wrestling We also touch bases on NOAH, American Dragon, ROH, and WM 22. Give the show a listen and post your feedback here or if you want your feedback heard on the show, your email address is [email protected] Thanks for all your support, DA

The latest Observer said there are no plans at this time to use Waltman in any capacity.

My bad. I'll blame Ripper for putting my whole quote in his reply instead of just the part about Payton. DA: making sure it's anyone else's fault but his own since now.

I never said Songaila was the final piece to the Bulls contending for a championship. He's a good addition to any club because of what he brings to the table.

He's the perfect backup PF. He's willing to do dirty work and has skills under the basket. When motivated, will actually hit the boards. Also posseses a good outside shot. Payton signing with the Heat just inches us closer to the NBA dream Finals of San Antonio vs Miami.

Possibly in the next 24-36 hours.

Credit: Observer site While the rest of the card is excellent and trumps the NWA Title match, Jarrett-Nash is just beyond lame. I really hope they put that match on last and half or more of the audience walks out so Spike and Co. get a clue that Jarrett and Nash are NOT people who should be on top.

This spot plays off of Jumbo vs Misawa from 9/1/90. This is not the match where Jumbo made Misawa with the flash pin, but the rematch where Jumbo got his win back to establish he was still a top guy. (since he jobbed the Triple Crown to Gordy 2 days before he made Misawa on 6/8/90) In the 9/1 match, Misawa is laying a whipping in the corner to Jumbo and Jumbo slowly rises out of the corner, like Misawa did with Kawada, no sells the blows, and then proceeds to lay a beating on poor Misawa and eventually defeats him to show him he's still "the man". Just like Misawa would do to Kawada 4 years later.

Excellent news, Biggles. I'm spoiled. I also want AmDrag and Cabana in as well.

On DVDVR message board, someone is citing a site called PWSpyware saying TNA has inked Austin Aries to a deal and is bringing in Tito Ortiz sometime after the 10/1 debut on Spike TV. Grain of salt, folks.

I understand Nash being involved in the main event angle is a necessary evil and I don't outright hate the idea, but they should not put the title on him and I don't think anyone is interested in Nash-Jarrett II. Perhaps he'll be an enforcer or special ref for Jarrett's title match? I don't know, but I'm not feeling a Nash title reign right now. Perhaps, Brown defeats Jarrett at BFG with help from Nash (since Jarrett doesn't know how to job cleanly anymore) and then Nash says since he helped Monty out, he wants a title shot. While Nash vs Monty matches might suck, I wouldn't mind Nash being fed to Monty.

If Kobashi is in the building that night, he will not be taking part in anything on camera or wrestling. I guarnatee it. It's not out of the relm of possibility that he's there as a guest of Laurinitis since the two are close from Laurinitis's AJPW days and I'm banking some of the boys in the back have seen and/or heard about him. However, there is no way in hell he will be on the show. He'll probrably be at the show.

Explain the Boogeyman then. He is not ready. Vince has been told he isn't ready and has done less than 5 matches in front of people. Yet if it weren't for Boogeyman hyperextending both knees, he'd already be on TV. They ran the ads for him and everything.

I'm hoping that means the rumors are true and that TNA signed Roderick Strong. They need to also sign Aries.

My brother, who is also one of NoCalMike's best friends lives in Houston. I just got off the phone with him and told him he needs to get out of that city asap. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Good news is my brother made it out of Houston today after leaving early yesterday and made it to a friend's house in San Antonio.

Not a credible source (saw it on DVDVR message board), but some CZW site for news or something is reporting that TNA inked a deal with Roderick Strong.

It's not as black and white as you make it out to be. There is a difference between getting people to want to pay to see you get beaten up or defeated in a match versus offending people to the point where they don't want to watch the product. Sure, it'd be nice if people weren't so over-sensitive cause then the WWE would have a field day, but unfortunately that isn't the world we live in.

If that's the case, is it ok to also get X-Pac/Jeff Jarrett type heat? You know, the kind of heat that helps you kill the audience and not want to invest their time and money into the product?

Pretty much what he said.
