  1. I miss the old Royal Rumble Updates where they'd run down all the participants. They need to bring back that and the retro music. Seriously, Cena should become World Champ and hold it for a year *just* so he can bring back the Retro PPV theme music.
  2. I wouldn't have made picks, period. I didn't see enough of Japanese or Indy wrestling this year to make a comment. I barely feel qualified to comment on MMA stuff (which was the worst of all the lists). Just because one can vote doesn't mean one should vote. I love Benoit, but him as best technical and best brawler as well as most outstanding is ridiculous. Quite frankly, I don't know how there were votes for MMA guys in wrestling categories BUT technical and brawler. There is better of both in MMA than there is in the wrestling. How does Wanderlei Silva not get VOTED for best brawler? Or Chuck Liddell. How does Nick Diaz or Karo Parisyan not even get voted for for most technical? They had an outstanding technical fight that dwarfed anything Benoit did in 04. This is a case of the voters not knowing what the fuck they are voting for, and I'll put part of that blame on Dave for not defining it properly. Then again, this is a guy who has "They just feel like Hall of Famers" as his reasoning for choosing his HOF, so maybe he just can't explain it. Apparently, because Benoit uses a submission hold he's a technical wrestler. How does WWE have so many guys in the "best of" categories - more than any other company - yet is so low when it comes to "best promotion"? There's no consistency in the voting, I don't think many of the voters actually thought in it. Putting Benoit/Michaels/HHH feud as "the best" in 04 just blows my mind. Not a lick of it made sense and it accomplished N_O_T_H_I_N_G. Foley/Orton at least did something. Joe Silva deserved much more love than he got, the man put together some amazing cards in 04 and even managed to put on a really good show in The War of 04 after so many drop-outs. How doesn't Vince win (or at the very least come in 2nd) Best Promoter? His company drew the most fans, the most cumulative buyers... in other words the most money... than any other company for 2004. That's the job of a promoter - to promote their shows so they can draw money. That's why there is a difference between booker and promoter. Dumb, Dumb, Dumb. Somehow, a company that draws 1000 fans once a mont, which is a whopping total of 12,000 fans a year, manages to outdraw a company that does that in a single show. Does this make sense to anyone? UFC should have gotten better consideration for best promotion as well. They had a killer year last year. I enjoyed every single one of their shows, and they had IMO the best show of the year with UFC 49 and it didn't even get considered for best show. BJ Penn isn't the best shootfighter?? How does SILVA get almost double the votes? He beat 2 guys! One of whom he outweighed by about 20 pounds and another whom he already demolished. Meanwhile BJ stepped UP in weight, DESTROYED the most dominant champion since Noguiera, and then beat Dwayne Ludwig and Rodrigo Gracie. Yet SILVA gets it? Jesus Christ. Joe Rogan and Mike Goldberg are the best commentary team today, bar none. They smoke everyone. Tenay and West? No competition. The ROH guys? Dear God No. JR and the King? Don't make me laugh. Rogan has been overlooked for far too long. He does everything Tenay does in terms of getting over fighters and knowing the moves and doesn't sound like a complete douche when doing it. But Rogan doesn't get pimped by Meltzer so he doesn't even get considered. Baa. Baa.
  3. Did anyone else want Michael to stay in the wheelchair so in every episode he could say "Suvivor, Number 00041, Steve... going from Sydney to L.A., sentence, 40 years...up for death-by-monster, 3 episodes" Steve: "HEY!" http://abc.go.com/primetime/lost/images/ga...ry.html?photo=4 Are they dancing here?
  4. That was the same spot.
  5. I do so have a bear.
  6. Fuck you, that looked bad ass and you know it. It looked badass alright. It looked bad, and it looked like ass.
  7. Didn't you just get punted? Punted by me? I guess this is as good a place as any, I retract the puntion.
  8. Hello?!? Is this called VelociTNA? Get outta here you! *punts*
  9. You're dreadful. Or Gay. Gayful, really.
  10. It's Jesus Christ Meltzer. It's a new Andrudo Lloyd Webber musical.
  11. Dratch out in the cold is wonderful.
  12. God this is a horrible Ahnuld impersonation. I like Hammond and whatnot, but god this is bad. Where's Cosby?!
  13. I wouldn't agree with a single one of those results. Jesus Christ Meltzer got stupid voters.
  14. I love the Rick sketch. Kenzo is fantastic. I didn't see the match and it probably sucked, but him getting the crowd to do "we're not worthy!" was fantastic. Kenzpwned~!
  15. CHINLOCK! Fast paced!
  16. BIG bump by London. God, I hate watching castrated cruisers.
  17. Here ya go
  18. I think it had more something to do with BTM using the WWE to get people in the theatre, and Vince wanting a cut. Not 100% sure on that, though.
  19. 1. Boone being a disciple of Locke is awesome. I love that Locke is building an army of followers. The shit will hit the fan one day, and on that day, the jizzum will hit the fan as well. 2. Man, Sawyer needs to learn how to fight. Punked by Charlie? Shit, what next? BOONE?! 3. That scene. The scene with Shannon and Boone talking. The shot of Shannon from behind. The short skirt. The Behind. The Yowza. 4. The Walt-is-different stuff is great. The force IS strong in that one. OJohn-Locke Kenobi~! 5. Car 1. Michael 0. PWN3D~!!!1 6. I like how they carried the box over from the last eps in this one. 7. The mom was such a bitch. I'm glad she's dead. The Husband-dood was great though. They find such wonderful bitplayers. 8. Fucking Crappy Polar Bear CGI. 9. Overall I really liked this episode. Not the "OH SCHNAP!" kinda episode, but certainly one with heavy character development. Hurley talking about the Golf tournament for the last stick of deorderant was great. Sun talking to Michael was a bit out of place, Jin should have beat the shit out of her... i mean him... for doing so. We need more Jin.
  20. Who would you rank in the top 10, and who do you see being in a PRIDE LW Tournament?
  21. Did you, like, film this all at one show in one day?? Is the focus mainly on the union thing? Because that would seriously rule. The WWE shouldn't be getting away with that shit, and it's probably the only reason they're still profitable today.
  22. So Snitsky helps Heidenreich and Heidenreich helps Snitsky, and they both kill Kane and Taker, who then both fly into the sky (played by Val Venis and Stevie Richards). I've enjoyed the matches, they need to cut about 5-10 minutes off them, but other than that I enjoy them. The feud sucks though. I have no idea why they're fighting. Heidenreich would have been better as the frozen Nazi, and Taker must destroy him because Nazis are bad.
  23. I think they will say, "We'd love to. Afterall, any press is good press. There is no such thing as bad publicity." And then they'll have two very large men escort you out of the building and smash your camera. It would be great. The 102nd reason not to be a pro wrestler...
  24. I'm sorry, that was a typo, I meant to say "You Lei". The wins over Gracie and Pulver were impressive, no matter how you try to spin it. Gomi showed great striking ability against Pulver and KTFO of both him and Ralph.
