Hawk 34

No one who watches TNA see the belt as the NWA World Title. For the better part of the last year and beyond, it's completely been seen as the TNA World Title. Now they can use the control to get it over more as the NWA title. They could attach themselves to promotions like ROH which tours 3 different countries with various connections to other promotions.

The good thing is, one of the new dramas will bomb pretty soon (I'm thinking LIFE) and hopefully FNL will get slotted in a better spot. Although a 4th slot in 2 years won't help.

Ugh. FNL on Friday? Horrible. I guess they figured it was going to get low ratings anyways, might as well stick it on friday at 10. Should have just slapped the other Deal onto fridays with the other game show and kept FNL at 8 on wednesday. I can't believe ER is still around. Chuck has a premise that I might be interested in but the guy from The O.C and McG doing a show sounds like a bad over produced mix. None of the new shows on NBC seem like shows that'll be worth seeing.

Vince is nuts. WCW never had success with a celeb? I guess he ignored the Rodman/Malone stuff which was probably a bigger deal then Trump's deal.

They did a great job of putting over Morishima as the unstoppable bad ass champion. Delirious/Strong was said to be bad but I think the main event, Romero/Marufuji, Briscoes-CC+Sydal can deliver. We know the opener, tag team scramble and probably the SHIMMER match won't make the cut.

Why do people make a big issue that he played a gay guy in a movie? A great deal of talented actors have played gay characters but people like Cabbage make it as if that's all Ledger has ever done and that by being The Joker, he'll play it as gay cowboy.

Ledger is perfect with his look and he is a fantastic actor. Hanging onto that no one can do this role like Jack sentiment is preposterous.

That's likely being saved for the Japan shows. Although, I could see it happening tonight. I'd expect Nigel-Morishima rematch and Richards-Danielson. Maybe KENTA/Fuji-Briscoes as well.

I'm honestly surprised. Glad for the show but I figured after three seasons of low ratings in spite of critical love would been enough. After NBC with FNL and Scrubs, I'm glad to see networks holding onto good shows that might not get big ratings but know they are worthwhile shows.

He's paired with Larry Sweeney and Chris Hero. He is a good mid-card act as a roid monkey personal trainer. He mostly beats up students and provides the enforcer role for Sweeney.

I really liked Edge's sublte glance at Henry on the way out. No heel to heel nod or even indication of cohesion.

His character called for it. Just because you play a character on film/tv that comes with subtitles doesn't mean you can't speak with clarity in real life.

I think knowing the spoilers made me enjoy it more. I actually watched the show instead of skimming through the DVR as I usually do with SD.

That's just a strange traveling duo right there. Factor in Umaga living next door, Haas has quite the life.

Apprently it's sore and he's being saved for a big match tomorrow night. Crowd attendence is said to be around 400. Not good but ROH has been jerked around from venue to venue in the CT area (in Hartford tonight).

5/11 results in Hartford (on-going) ~Nigel is not wrestling tonight due to a back injury. BJ Whitmer came out and asked to be Morishima's partner. Briscoes confront him and tell him he's not a friend to them anymore and attack him...Morishima made the save. 1) JIMMY RAVE over PELLE PRIMEAU via submission with the "Heel Hook." 2) DAIZEE HAZE over NIKKI ROXX 3) KEVIN STEEN & EL GENERICO over JASON BLADE & EDDIE EDWARDS 4) CLAUDIO CASTAGNOLI (with short haircut) over BOBBY FISH ~The Final Countdown hit and Danielson came out with the Jedi Robe on... ...but it's actually SHANE HAGADORN and he was soon joined by ADAM PEARCE. Pearce goes on to say that he's going to give the fans a DREAM MATCH...Danielson v. Hagadorn! 5) BRYAN DANIELSON over SHANE HAGADORN via tap out (5a) BRYAN DANIELSON over ADAM PEARCE via tap out ~The NO REMORSE CORPS confronted Danielson after the match. Roderick Strong invites him to join the NRC. Danielson says "NO!" and gets jumped. Erick Stevens and Matt Cross make the save and a 6-man tag is on! 6) THE NO REMORSE CORPS of RODERICK STRONG, DAVEY RICHARDS, and ROCKY ROMERO over BRYAN DANIELSON, and THE RESILIENCE of ERICK STEVENS and MATT CROSS when Richards pinned Cross. 7) TANK TOLAND OVER MITCH FRANKLIN 8) NAOMICHI MARUFUJI OVER MATT SYDAL 9) KENTA over Delirious via G2S 10) ROH WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS THE BRISCOES OVER BJ WHITMER & ROH WORLD CHAMPION TAKESHI MORISHIMA Respect is Earned (NYC 5/12-PPV Taping) No matches announced.

Good news.

The starting pitching has been quite well this season (Harang continues to be criminally ignored) but yes, the pen is atrocious. You're best off arriving to the game around the 7th inning.

Either Saturday (Penny vs. Lohse) or Sunday (Hendrickson vs. Milton). Arroyo is pitching Friday, so that's probably the least likely of the three for the Dodgers to win. The bullpen loves to blow good Arroyo starts but you can't go against Eric Milton. What happened to your like for Phillips?

I'm not seeing any comparison to 24 or Lost in this. Looks like the usual network fare. The trailer doesn't make me care about these two. I'll give it a shot since the concept, while not original or anything, can be interesting if done right.

I'm still trying to figure out why they needed to create a second redneck tag team. Cade and Murdoch are golden.

A show piled with three way matches can't help but feel like filler and this show does. From Shelley's post.

No. That's wrong, really wrong. I didn't even watch tonight. Blake should have gone out the door but I pretty much expected LaKisha to go. She doesn't have Melinda's skill or Jordin's youth and "better" looks. Blake survived by virture of being male.

At first, I thought you meant emotionally but since it appears you meant physically, that's not good. Risking your future with your knees is a big risk as it is but heart problems at his age is never good. He should take a look at the events of his best friend to see that. I've been saying for weeks that Brooke Adams seems like the perfect fit with Edge just by looks alone but I'm not sure she has the chops to get heat like Lita. Henry-Edge is a strange partnership but it could work.

I'd think Hardy would be better fit then Chavo. Hardy is more likely to be involved with the other five.
