Another "don't trust the internet" spin by the E

That was in his contract. And remember, he walked out in the middle of the deal. Christian deal was apparently up. Big difference. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> All I can say is good for Christian. He didn't count their chickens before they hatched

90-day no compete? I heard lesnar signed one that keeps him out of action until 2014 and he's currently fighting it.

Steve Austin = uncerimonially let go from one fed, skyrocketted in another Christian = uncerimonially let go from one fed, skyrocketted in another

Does he have a no compete clause?

A worked shoot? A la edge, matt and lita?

I'm guessing they really want us to vote for HBK, right?

I like it, but it sounds too much like a cross between Raven's flock storyline and the original ministry of darkness storyline. Also, the undertaker abs. hated the original ministry of darkness angle, so I don't think that's how he would want to end his career. Also, it's a good angle that involves a lot of wrestlers, which is good (if the angle works). However, I think the names need work.

Oh for christ fuckin' sakes! For arguments sake I'm saying most people would make the connection between Jarret and TNA. Besides, while I do agree with you in that most smarks are not openly smarkish to their friends, if a mark asks his friend a question (who may not be a smark, but knows about the connection Jarret has to TNA) they would answer. Like what's Jericho's real name, were there ever 2 undertakers, etc. So while people aren't out there flaunting their smarkiness, if their friends ask them indepth questions, it's not like they won't answer.

You forget, this is the E, where your finisher is a slam of some sort, a neckbreaker, or a powerbomb. That's all they get. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Or a submission hold. Benoit, Masters, Angle...and yes, the Angle Slam has been moved down to a set up move. Then again, Eddie Guerrero has the Frog Splash...so he's not counted either. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ahh, yes the frog splash, that's at least 4 superstars' finishers now, right? Eddie, RVD, Val Venis, Viscera, anyone else? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Eddie and RVD have the Frog Splash Val and Vis just have regular splashes. THe difference is the arm pump ala a Frog. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ah, my bad. Anyway, my point is that no one has an inovative finisher anymore. There all just . . . modified neckbreakers

I hope Spike is testing the water to see if they are worthy competition for that other wrestling fed.

You mean he mentioned the tolands by name? Yikes -- plot hole!

What about the backstage promo where he made the coach dance? Anyone remember that? Just watching coach made me die.

If 1 out of 10 people know a smark friend, then it's still a lot. Casual fans aren't dumb? Have you seen some of the retarded signs people hold up in the stands? EDIT: Either way, the WWE is confirming the competition's existence, which is something they didn't with WCW for a long time, even into their ratings war.

I liked 3LK. Call me a casual fan but I loved to see James' intro before the match. It reminded me of the WWE's DX back in the old days.

And the competition of WWE vs. TNA has officially begun with the WWE striking the first blow. This will backfire. Smarks are already seeing thru what the WWE is trying to do and most likely know about TNA already. Casual fans who don't nkow what TNA is will now know, which can't be good for the WWE's business. For example, the casual fans goes over to WWE.com and sees that headline. The last name sounds familiar and they go ask the smark friends if he's any relation to Jeff Jarret. They respond by saying yes and the casual fans goes OMG! Jeff Jarret's going back to the WWE. The smark laughs, explains the situation and says that Jarret wrestles in TNA and will probably never see a WWE ring again. The casual fan says, "What's TNA?" Now all the casual fans know about TNA and start watching it.

Yeah, I don't know what they were thinking. It's like their trying to generate heat the way they did by calling billy gunn Mr. Ass.

HHH proly will say he wouldn't take anything from flair and give the title back to him it a pity gesture. EDIT: That delete cookies idea is great! By hook or by crook, Dude Love will be facing carlito

No way, it's got to mean that he bought TNA! They wouldn't mention something like that, knowing that's what the fans would assume, and then have it not be true? The WWE wouldn't tease us would they? Oh shit, Vince-logic. I forgot.

You know, come to think of it, I hate carlito's mic work. When he talks, it sounds like an asian trying to speak with a spanish accent. Why don't they just let him talk in his normal voice?

This man speaks the truth. Vince, hate the fans? Get a new job then. The customer is always right so give us what we want and we won't scowl at you.

From the transcript, I didn't think the Booker heel turn was well done at all. As far as I can see, there was no logic to it. He wanted to beat Benoit fair and square, objected when sharmel interfered, then he turned on Benoit? I would've like to have seen sharmel turn heel and booker stay face.
