  1. I still insist that they should just slot King Booker as Vince's rep and have Khali as his bodyguard. Booker can carry the workload with Lashley and with his promo skills as well. Much more to be gained from that rather then using Shane McMahon of all people.

    Anna Nicole Smith Is Dead

    She died at the right time. A week after the superbowl and nothing else is really going on in the world that won't be happening a week from now. Perfect fluff piece to waste time on.

    Out of Sight

    This movie got a lot of love when it came out. It's just forgotten because Clooney has done better since and J-Lo became uber famous.

    Selling part of my life away today

    Are you handy? There's always, ALWAYS work for mechanics, laborers, painters, construction. I'm lucky enough to be skilled at business matters but I can also write, work/repair cars, do industrial paint and I still have a standing offer to work at Hustler of all places. What I'm saying is, might help to look in odd places. Fuck, even Janitorial work if you must. It's not glamorous but if you need cash while waiting for a real job, it's there. I agree with KKK. You can't just give in to your girl so much. You WILL grow bitter and upset. I love my girl to death but a thing I love about her is that I know she doesn't need me to survive. She can handle her shit and to me, that's sexy as hell. I take comfort knowing I won't have to worry about her falling into debt and needing me to fix it or make the income for the household. If anything, she'll probably make more then me down the road.

    Selling part of my life away today

    That's why I always make sure that I have money saved and never get into debt because I could never imagine giving up possensions of my childhood. How come you can't get work? You could've just grabbed a few shifts at a fast food joint. I know it's not the best but I hate when people say they can't get a job when there's alot of choices to be found.

    The Irish Airborne

    I've seen them work some horrible talent (which, to be fair is probably what NMW has) Where do you get off saying that? NMW actually puts on better shows and has higher quality talent than the majority of American independent promotions. I appreciate your answer to my question, but that's a pretty asinine assumption. I just meant on the level of Austin Aries, Jay Briscoe and Christopher Daniels, whom they worked a good deal of matches with in ROH. It's hard to compare a small regional promotion that I'm sure is good with that but having seen them work other small regional promotions that don't have world class workers such as those aforementioned, and their work suffers because the skill level is lower. I wasn't trying to slight a promotion that I've never heard of, it's just when you look at their track record, they aren't at the stage to carry a match unless they have really good talent in the ring with them.

    Winter's Freeze

    It was just past one but there was an ominous breeze filtering through the white skies on Tuesday. I sat in class and every single pair of eyes looked away watching the snow start to pick up. We knew it was coming but the anticipation was building, a buzz of whispers shooting through the air with the keypad blips of txt messaging and the gentle tapping on lap tops. All focus on class had expired once the snow finally collapsed down from the tight grips of the clouds and slammed onto the waiting campus. Numbers had been thrown out but the crude measurement with a tape measure out in the parking lot as I dodged cars and a stampede of paranoia read the story. 5 ¾ inches. It was just starting, it would reach higher later that night but combine with the below freezing temperatures and icy conditions foretold a scary adventure. It wasn’t the amount of snow that was the concern; it was the icy conditions and horrible road conditions. I had to make a decision that morning. I knew all too well that these weather conditions were coming. Two weeks ago, I finally put up that old pick up truck that I drove since my accident two months ago and brought (against my initial intentions) a 2004 Dodge Ram 1500 Hemi (a fucking machine) but instead of driving it that day, I knew my mother would be working downtown into the middle of the afternoon. Instead of letting her drive her old car that has seen better days, I gave her the keys to my brand new truck. Aren’t I a great son? I finally found my way out through the shuffle of the parking lot. 5,500 students converging onto a one lane road all driving no faster then 15 MPH. It took approximately 35 minutes to travel 2 miles. A slightly longer wait and I made it through the town and reached the express way. The problem with this expressway was simply that it was basically a curvy hill and of course, the road crews hadn’t bothered to get to this specific area. It was coming down strong. Windshield wipers froze almost instantly. The skies fell darker in the early afternoon and the only option was instinct. A 2 lane expressway had become a 5 wide slip and slide Daytona 500 mess. No order can possibly function at these times. The urge of survival kicks in and everyone seeks their own grooves, that secret spot on the road that leads to freedom but instead just arrive to constant frustration. Soon enough it feels monotonous. You almost adapt to moving like a snail at 20 MPH watching snow hail over your window (snow surf). Of course, there were the jackasses who felt that going faster on ice and snow was the better alternative. The world would be less shitty if these fuck-wads expired. Cars struggled to climb up the hills and I watched them in front of me, a good deal of distance away rock back and forth. I finally got off that expressway and I felt secure in the rest of my trip home. I still had classes at another school in Middletown, but Middletown is horrendous with road crews and no class is ever worth spending an extra 2-3 hours there then I already am. I finally got home. What was usually just 20 minutes took two hours. I was already dressed to stay home and take in the falling snow but I got that phone call that I should have known was coming. I looked down and saw Allison was calling and I knew instantly what it was for. The keys were in my hands by the time I said “Hello”. She works downtown. Normally its 25 minutes away but I knew better. Not only did I buy myself a new truck but I also brought her a car since hers was a pain to keep fixing up and wasn’t worth the time nor price. It wasn’t anything special. Just a cheap but dependable Saturn that I brought off a guy my father knew. Instead of driving down there, she took the bus because she wanted to save gas money. Usually, I’d applaud that but not in this case. I was off to go “rescue” her. Luckily for me, my mother had just arrived as I was leaving. So I wasn’t forced to fight through that in that old car again. The roads should have improved with a couple hours passed but the road crew had very little effect on the conditions. Although I hated driving in these conditions, I took a slight piece of happiness in this. It was good, if only for confirmation to know that she isn’t completely independant. It’s a fantastic trait but there’s always a time you want to feel like they need you for more then just being a fuck toy. I arrived at the hotel well after I left the house and the night had already fell but I could see her standing by a door and I was taken aback by the sight of her breaking into a wide smile and doing that thing she does with her tongue when she smiles like that. Took us just as long to get back to my house but the trip home was probably the most, well, fun time I ever had driving 10 MPH on a icy highway with a deluge of pissed off drivers wanting to get home in time to catch American Idol or whatever crappy CBS action show was on. I’ve always said that winter was the best time of the year and I continue to insist on that. Some think that the heat of the summer, the calmness of fall and the bloom of spring is the best and that can be understood but winter’s freeze creates this complete alternate world where somehow you become warmer against the dark cold nights. The best times of my life were always during the winter months and I’ll always associate snow for happiness. Things just feel good right now and I can hardly believe that a couple entries ago, I was pissed and bitter about life. Yeah, I know these times aren’t always here to stay and that the snow will soon melt and spring will begin. There’s a lot of resentment around this place. People are so angry and many don’t seem to be willing to change that. Certain people are more obvious then others. I’ve been there, hell just a few weeks ago I was feeling down but there really isn’t a reason to be negative. Sure, the world sucks. Nothing changes and we’re just waiting for death but maybe you should drive in the snow every once in awhile to remember it doesn’t always have to be shitty.

    He only got the job with WWE because he got a little publicity for getting fired from the school when he didn't inform them that he was a independent worker and would call in sick because of his bookings. Vince liked the publicity and gave him a try out and he got hired.

    Anna Nicole Smith Is Dead

    That has to suck for the new kid. A debate going about who her father really is, her brother died just hours after she was born and her mother kicks the bucket before she's even a year old. If that kid isn't a serial killer or in porn in 18 years, I'd be stunned.

    The Irish Airborne

    Irish Airborne is a Ohio based tag team, more specifically the HVW. They are a pretty young set of brothers with a high flying style and they usually hit 60% of their elaborate spots. In ROH, they aren't booked as often as they once were and when they were, they were the jobber tag team. David Crist looks like a dead ringer for Randy Orton, probably more so then even Ken Doane did. Jake Crist, is the more talented of the two. It really depends who they work. They had a great match with the likes of The Briscoes and against Generation Next but I've seen them work some horrible talent (which, to be fair is probably what NMW has) they will probably get sloppy and miss their spots. If anything they are a good throwback to the Rock N Roll Express type tag team in that in between the spots, they work a good formula style match and with a good set of heels, they can really do something.

    Smackdown Spoilers twelve days before No Way Out

    I was thinking since they have so many people on the roster that probably won't get a spot on the show, they'd go back to a battle royal and use that to have Mysterio return ala LOD @ WMXIV. No real excuse not to have Benoit Vs Rey at Mania for the US Title (unless they feel Kennedy/Benoit is a better route) Although given how many face/face matches we're already looking, possibly not although Benoit could easily go tweener here. It's another shot at exploting Eddie's death!

    Yep, that's who I was thinking of. Matt Striker is like Mike Sanders. I'm still waiting for Striker or anyone really to match that awesome debut Sanders had on Thunder in WCW. Sanders like Striker was a tremendous promo (although Striker isn't close to Sanders, yet at least) and either are exactly great workers. I still enjoy the fact Striker only has a job because he lied and it got press coverage. Otherwise he'd still be doing small indies.
  17. Nope. This isn't the first time since the 12-whatever PPVs a year it's happened though. If we're going to get multiple shows per month (January, April, June, November, December), we should get more months without a PPV.

    Wrestling Society X (WSX)

    Isn't Two-a-Days reruns, though? Not that I'm cheering against WSX, I think it's a decent enough show, much better than ECW or Raw -- but that seems like some sorry apologizing. Two-a-Days, runs on the same format as WSX. It's the second season of Two-a-Days right now.

    Love is blooming all around TSM! I think I'm heading your direction. I've been with her even less then you have but we're moving into my house once school lets out and Im getting all those signs that this one is different and I'll probably marry this girl.

    I better get the e-vite soon! Also, to steal from this, I am now starting to seriously ponder reaching down that road. Seems like the right time.

    Submissions aren't exactly used much anymore as finishers with the exception of Cena, Punk, Benoit, and Masters. Some use submissions as set ups but it's generally those four with routine submission finishers.

    It's Always Worse In Winnipeg

    I love the visual of seeing a crowd of guys walking around campus and half are covered in 4-5 layers of long sleeved shirts, 2 hoodies and a t-shirt wrapped around it clutching their man purses for a 2 minute walk between buildings and then you got guys like me wearing jeans, t-shirt and a light track jacket and a ball cap waiting for it to really get cold. This "artic blast" only validates my point earlier somewhere here on my claims that girls are just much more cuter in the winter.
