Hawk 34

How would they actually explain why Punk is suddenly interested in her after she chased him for months last fall with Punk never really showing any mutal signs of interest. WWE has even bothered to acknowledge the past with Kelly, so it isn't a case where the past doesn't exist. I would just leave that spot as a house show deal to pop the crowd and nothing more. Punk does need someone new, since he debuted, he has dealt with Knox, Burke and Morrison with a bunch of short and ultimately meaningless spats of nothingness (Test, Thorn, Richards, Miz and BDV). a romance feud with Balls seems like a step back, if you ask me.

They made sure that no rookie would upstage him this time. If Rey gets a big pop as he usually does, maybe HHH will get on his knees and let Mysterio say the magic words "Are you ready?", that'll give Mysterio a huge rub.

No, no, no...Austin bookings go more like this: Santino offers Austin some Italian beer as a peace offering, Austin accepts since it's beer, spits it out because it's ITALIAN beer (the horror!) and stuns Santino and then Maria for good measure. Then drinks some real beer (AMERICAN, BAH GAWD) and spits it on both of them. He will then disappear until he has some other awful affront to all media to hype. I hope he does stun Maria. Austin needs to beat up more women on TV. I agree. It will add some realism to his character. The sad part is he'll get a standing ovation for it. For cripes' sake, Austin could deliver a stunner to a crippled, cancer-patient Girl Scout and still get a huge face pop. Same could go for The Rock as well. It's just one of those things I suppose. The Rock proved that if you just say their hometown sports team suck, you'll get really big heat. Beat a girl up? Awesome. Say the Kings suck, massive heat.

That is pretty spot on for what I predicted earlier except Mysterio in Lashley's spot and Finlay in Henry's spot. I figured Mysterio and Finlay would have their own teams. If they have another match, it'll be quite the mid-card heavy match. Might be best to not do a ECW title match and have Punk-Morrison captain their own teams. Punk/Londrick/Balls/Palumbo Vs Morrison/Redneck Crew/Miz/Knoble or Henry.

They will likely have already secured a playoff berth at that juncture. I'd call for Pittsburgh to get the job done on both counts of knocking Brady out on his ass and handing them their loss.

Don't worry, guys. Patriots are going to lose to the best team in the NFL in COUGHweek13COUGH.. heh..mmm

Enough. Nobody here is saying that this year and I sure as hell haven't heard any News outlets saying this either. Bullshit. They have been running the "They hate us because they think we cheated in the Super Bowl, so let's prove them wrong" rally cry all year.

What was the stupidest proclamation made in this thread? A) Anything about the Baltimore Ravens. B) Running Backs are overrated. C) The League is out to screw the Patriots.

If NE doesn't like having these supposed shifty referee calling against them, they might want to stop throwing the ball to the wrong players.

Didn't Dillon make that record in the mud-filled PBS field? I know he had a muddy game against Denver a few years but not sure if it was the record game. Didn't Lewis have a huge 65 yard TD run called back in that game with Cleveland?

Chad Johnson took a vicious blow to the head and isn't looking good. He's being carried off the field. Hey, UT, CJ makes that catch most of the time, that's why he's one of the better WR's in the league.

You do realize that Bradshaw was already successful in the stock market business long before he got married to Whitney, right?

Why is there even a debate about Meltzer's fake HOF? It's equally irrelevant as Vince's.

Right...what from nowhere undefeated team was I thinking of? Not Hawaii... oh well. Anything that doesn't involve Ohio State is what the nation wants.

Short of another Ryan Super Duper Miracle, the B.C nightmare is about to reach an end. We all want Connecticut/Kansas for the national title game.

I can't even begin to imagine who Cage will "adapt". He is probably mindfucked with Delirious. The movie is called "The Wrestler" and is directed by Darren Aronofsky (The Fountain, Requiem for a Dream). That should be interesting. KENTA-Misawa isn't the main event. That's a shocker. AotF and Briscoes will close the show.

Another week fated by the tiebreaker but it goes to my favor this week and my downward slide ends, at least for now.

I'm supposed to be getting Missouri/Colorado on FSN but instead I'm getting high school football. I'll take the HS game, though. USF/Cincy started great but it got really ugly in the second half.

WTF, I picked Colorado? Idiot. Texas, with a great comeback might salvage that idiotic pick.

I think if they did it properly, a ULTIMATE SURVIVOR match would be great today but we know WWE won't ever return to the 4-5 survivor match format again. We're lucky with 2 nowadays.

As an interested outsider, I'm curious about why so many people detest Mangino. Is it the obesity thing or something more sinister?

Do they test OVW/FCW workers as well? The contracted ones, at least.

I loved this show as a kid. I probably watched this show more then any other WWF ppv/show ever. I'd be afraid to watch it again and ruin those memories of being up at 4 am watching this show.
