Eddie & Angle has an "altercation" backstage...
RavishingRickRudo replied to a topic in The WWE Folder
Angle is a Freestyle Wrestler, he'd shoot in for a double/single leg rather than clinch like a Greco-Roman Wrestler (Couture) would. -
Hogan* ended/ruined HHH's supposed uber-face run, of course he'd be mad. *And Toronto. Including Me.

The One and Only Angel Season 5 Thread
RavishingRickRudo replied to Steve J. Rogers's topic in Brandon Truitt
"Family" is the theme for Buffy Season 5, so fuck that. Season 3 Angel had more to do with Family than Season 4. ... what was the theme for Season 3 Angel? -
The One and Only Angel Season 5 Thread
RavishingRickRudo replied to Steve J. Rogers's topic in Brandon Truitt
http://www.buffy.nu/article.php3?id_article=6526 A review on Angel S4. The person says that the theme for the season was "Family", I say "What the Fuck?", because it's clearly FreeWill/Choice. Whatchall think??? -

But do you see the "Lita is a Dumas" sign when Lita is all distraught? AKA the second greatest moment in smark history. And do you see the MUGATaker sign? -
MMA Comments that Don't Warrant a Thread
RavishingRickRudo replied to RavishingRickRudo's topic in Mixed Martial Arts
Good stuff, but the killer instinct/need to win is so important in fighting. It's a double edged sword, because it will take you to the top but once you get humbled you really start to doubt yourself. But I can't imagine becoming the top fighter in the world without it. -
I don't really care. This is like a tree falling in the forest, given the way they've treated him.

Eddie & Angle has an "altercation" backstage...

But there are also ways to avoid getting into that position. No, there isn't. Not against someone like Angle. You are dramatically underestimating Kurts skill here. There is 100% certainty that Angle could take Eddie down. There is 100% certainty that he would control Eddie when he's down. The only uncertainty is how Kurt would finish it and how much pain Eddie can take and Kurts willing to give. Eddie isn't a dumbass, and if he ever thought of fighting Kurt, i'm pretty sure he's thought about this. Kurt's strong, but he's also at risk of getting caught in a hold, it's not like Eddie is only trying to poke his eyes out. Good to know Eddie is a black belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Cause, like, that's the only way he'd be able to have a chance to sub Angle. There was that incident where Taker choked out Kurt, in an airplane or whatever, don't know if it's true, but..yeah Taker is taller and stronger than Eddie, but it's not impossible to take down a very well trained wrestler. The situation was Kurt and Vince were "play wrestling" on the plane and Taker came up from behind him. -

As far as Eddy vs Kurt, I don't know who would win. In the argument of wrestlers kicking ass, I add this, just because Kurt was a wrestler doesn't mean he is a dominating fighter. If that were the case then wrestlers would be able to walk into an MMA promotion and dominate. But that is not the case and wrestlers have to do more training different forms of martial arts to even compete in MMA. Mark Kerr, Mark Coleman, and Randy Couture went into MMA with very little to _no_ knowledge in anything other than wrestling. Do not underestimate wrestling as a fighting form. It is one of the oldest forms of combat in the history of man. -

Sometimes Strength doesn't win all fights. Usually the smarter, quicker, and more skilled fighter wins. Of course Kurt is a more skilled wrestler, but I doubt he's as skilled of a fighter as Eddie. Any skill Eddie has would be neutralized as soon as Angle gets his hands on him. I cannot stress enough how important controlling another persons body is on the ground - that's what Kurt has been taught his entire life, and his grip strength is probably off the charts. If he got Eddie in even a headlock, Eddie is fucked. Angle could put Eddie in a position (on his back) where punches mean very little and where Kurt could have free reign in pounding or submitting. The only people who can beat a wrestler like Kurt Angle is someone who is equally skilled but in submissions, or who can avoid a takedown and knock him out. Eddie wouldn't be able to avoid Kurts takedowns and Eddie is no Frank Shamrock (Kevin Jackson) or Antonio Rodrigo Noguiera (Mark Coleman) or Murillo Bustamante (Matt Lindland) -

Considering that two of the guys Angle faced and beat in amateur wrestling competition were Mark Kerr and Mark Coleman (Hey, if this were a few years ago those names would impress people ), and those guys won their fights with little more than their wrestling skills, I'd say that one shouldn't discount Angles wrestling abilities in a legit fight. Mark Kerr didn't even have a fighters mentality (kill!kill!kill!) and he still had a measure of success in the fight world because of his physical skills and ability to overpower and control others. I think Angle could pop Eddies head off if he wanted to. -
Don't diss the Ro.

Vince first has to get his paws on her (on TV, because it's not cheating if it's on TV), then she gets let go.

I blame Bart Gunn for that. I blame the school system. Blame Canada Don't Blame Canada, Blame Yourself.

You lost me at "Christy is the best thing on RAW...", I hope I'm not the only one who finds her ghastly and very much bag-worthy.

Um, Carmella - the chick who has been getting negative reactions in arenas across the country and has been for a few weeks now - is still in the final 2. If that doesn't cry "work", I dunno what does. And the DIVA search is the 2nd most promoted thing on the show, next to HHH.

The inevitable outcome of this will be the WWE & Vince reenforced in their believe that the fans know shit and that their way is always the right way. But they won't do this 100% because they have never done anything 100% in years. They will put their spin on it, most likely working it, but since they operate from the "Us = Right, Them = Wrong" system, their spin isn't the problem, and they will blame the internet fan for not being interested enough in the show they were active in choosing - even if they weren't.
-
There is no reason for the WWE to actually go through with what the fans want. They look down on their fans. They think the fans are stupid. I'd almost go as-so-far-as-to-say they hate their fans (certainly they hate their online fan). Why would they go with what the fans want when Vince & co. clearly know best. The WWE, despite all of its efforts to appear modern, still operates from the very old system of "work mark", and wrestling will continue to be that way for a long time.

It'll happen once more so HHH and Shawn can finally have make-up sex their issue resolved afterwards, since they never fully did it when Kane came out.

Jack Doan should become GM. HHH: You don't have the guts do that! Doan: If you don't think I have the guts, then you don't know JACK

Jack D-opwn3d shit last night. I second his nomination.
-
He said he was done with Orton, in so many terms. Which means he's not.
-
I wouldn't be so certain this will be a work. Basically I don't they'll work it unless someone horrendous gets the shot, which is unlikely. THEY WORK EVERYTHING
