Hawk 34

Just so you know, Masters has gotten about equal time as Cena tonight.

I appreciate that they are going back to a normal and logical woman's storyline here. Last year with Trish and Mickie was probably the only one that worked for WWE and this has been done well thus far.

Killing a dog on live tv? Vince hasn't gotten much attention lately. He needs new enemies and PETA and those Animal rights groups can fucking wage war.

Gimmicks can sell a ppv, when you rush 6 of them in 3 months. However, wouldn't discount HIAC for RKO/DX. Umaga/Cena will probably be street fight rules, as well.

Get outta here. That was the best DAMN yet. The concept was nice. The execution was weak. He's trying too hard now.

DAMN, is finally dead. Only took 6 weeks.

Sadly this isn't the case for a great majority of these types of historical or "based on a true story" movies. This looks pretty good, it might get hurt because of the deluge of football movies over the past few months but I think the reviews I've heard for this movie and the nature of the story should help it tremendously.

Hasn't stopped Edge for the last 10 years.

Here's a point WWE needs to take note of, this is a great crowd. This crowd is probably 90% comped gamblers. The message being that more people will get into a below average product if they didn't pay for it.

I think I'm tired..hmm

Add those 4 guys I mentioned (King, Coach, Brown, Rhodes/Slaughter) and they'll probably have Booker come in to get back at Cena for the night before. So much for Flair's long hiatus. Toss out Rhodes/Slaughter, we got our 30th man.

Throw in Lawler, Coach(for the usual comedy spot) Umaga (he'll be in), at least one of the legends like Rhodes or Slaughter and Monty Brown probably will debut here late in the match.

This has been such a bland show. There's nothing going for it. The best you can find about it is some cheesy d-list delivery from The High Landers?

I miss those 40 man battle royals they used to run on house shows where it'd be 6 mid-carders and 30 local jobbers. I remember Tatanka winning a bunch of these. I hope they use the FIP Rumble format with next week. I mean, it's a 3 hour show and they put all the talent in one match.

A thread loaded with Marvin's...witty... commentary and Mecca's derivative Cena bashing. Oh, what fun. Why wouldn't they put more Cena on the show? He actually draws ratings which can't be said for DX and a great deal of the roster. He's the champion, he should be getting the most attention.

You don't have to be wealthy to keep up. They have $10 DVD sales for shows as recent as early this summer. You might be slightly behind but if you keep a eye out, you can have 10 shows for a easy $100. Not to mention the countless % off sales, buy 3 get 1 free sales. Also, they have video newswires on the website to explain what happened on each show, so you can follow along, even if you skip a show. 100th Show, is a another good show with a fantastic main event. It should be on that list and I don't why I skipped it. Out of 125 (I think) shows, ROH has done, Buffalo Stampede might be in the bottom 20.

HBK and HHH went on the other tours. I don't think they have. They weren't on the 2003 or 2004 tours. Unless they both were there for 2005, I don't think they've gone. I distinctly remember Shawn doing a interview for one of news network from Iraq, I believe last year. He got ignored for Candice, whom was posing in the background. Considering Shawn's beliefs and his family background, it'd be really unusual for him NOT to appear on these tours. Here's a picture of HHH at last year's show

Very little from 2004 and before still hold up compared to the string of shows from 2005 to present day, as ROH shifted from focusing on the main event/dream match formula into making complete cards. A lot of shows were one match shows and the most famous matches such as Punk/Joe trilogy, Aries/Joe, Aries/Danielson 2/3 Falls, Homicide/Corino (Barbed Wire) Danielson/Joe (MXR), all the London, Styles, Danielson matches are out there in the internet world.

If you are a Samoa Joe, CM Punk, Paul London, Danielson, Homicide or whomever, they have best of's to get and they are good collections but they usually keep out the big matches for obvious reasons*

6-8 weeks, unless they are overloaded with shows and mixing the dvd's becomes secondary. This should be out by late January.

The show isn’t until the weekend, but it’s a big weekend with some big stuff happening, so I figure it should get talk beforehand.

How would you promote Puder/Angle, if you can't show the footage of why that match would be so attractive?

He's still one of my favorite players ever. I remember liking him doing commentary and then he stopped and I don't know where he went.

Once AGAIN, I have the choice between Seattle and Denver. Hey, networks...America doesn't give a shit about either of these two teams. Stop forcing us to watch those teams. I can't believe I'm wishing I was getting a Buffalo or Green Bay game instead.

and again with the San Diego offense.. Week 4 - Ravens 16 San Diego 13 .. is it some sort of coincidence thats the only game they've scored fewer than 21 points or was it just a fluke? In week 4. Before Rivers started to click, before LT went insane. Everyone knows you can't determine anything from the first 4 weeks when it comes to the post-season. We know SD would beat them this time. Cincy just slapped Baltimore two weeks ago. They have a QB who won't hold up. If they can hold onto the #3 seed, they can get NYJ and avoid Cincy but going into the second round, they will collide with a team they won't beat.

Cincinnati and San Diego are probably the most likely to beat them. Cincy shut them down two weeks ago and they ran the scoreboard up on Baltimore in the first game before self-destructing. San Diego and Indy's offense are lethal, but Indy's defense may hurt them here but that won't be the case with SD. NE is always a wild-card since you can't tell what you'll get from them.
