    WWE General Discussion for July 2007

    Yeah, that's almost exactly how they made it sound. Well I was embellishing some but the Dunn won't do anything without Margera is a little gay if you ask me.........pulling out of major pub because another guy did is well kinda weird.

    WWE General Discussion for July 2007

    The original Jackass show was alright.....but it really annoyed me when it spun off into Bam's show and all these people I know felt they had to watch it because they watched Jackass. It was like this show sucks.....stop watching it. I've yet to figure out what the appeal of most of these guys is.....the fact that Bam Margera can have 3 shows on MTV speaks to the kind of stuff people like......seriously what is there about the guy to like?

    LOL.....I just liked how the report made Bam Margera sound like a pussy...which well isn't shocking then turned and basically called Ryan Dunn a fag that won't do anything without Bam. I laughed reading it.

    Even though it hasn't started yet, WWE is still going through with the 'Jackass' angle for SummerSlam. However, Bam Margera and Ryan Dunn have pulled out of it. Margera pulled out due to an injury and Dunn pulled out because Margera pulled out. Steve-O will be the leader of the group. Credit - WrestleZone
  8. Nothing tops Larry Zybyzsko who knew what kinda wrestler he was and what he couldn't do.........sitting there acting as if the cruiser guys weren't any good because they had more talent than him. His total disdain for those guys shined through every time he called one of their matches as he'd routinely say things like yea it looks nice but it doesn't really hurt.... He'd just go out of his way to bury every one of those guys...

    NFL Discussion Forumtable: 2007

    Well, when it's pretty much understood that Brodie Croyle is going to start that should tell you it isn't the same team anymore. Frankly they shouldn't have made the playoffs last year, they lucked in and really didn't deserve it, and I'm a fan of the team.

    How exactly can anyone pick Kansas City as a team that is going to "fall apart"? I live in Kc and the team is in full on rebuild mode.......there's nothing to fall apart, the team is overhauling and trying to get younger following the years of Vermiel and his allegiance to old players.

    She just isn't wearing 10lbs of makeup..... Looks more like a bad quality picture to me. Heck, I think she's pretty cute in it. It's a damn shame that they released her of all the women in the company. You can blame that guy she's flipping off there.....

    She's pretty good looking either way........don't act like you'd turn it down. - Jamie Noble (James Gibson) is now a producer/agent, who is in charge of putting together the cruiserweight matches. There is a push to hire younger producers/agents. - Mike "Simon Dean" Bucci has heat for acting like a big shot at Florida Championship Wrestling events. (information from the Wrestling Observer Newsletter was used in this report)

    WWE General Discussion for July 2007

    As a result of the Benoit family tragedy, Vince has put a ban on using any sort of chokehold in WWE matches. Talent and producers have to get special permission from McMahon before using a chokehold in a match. Vince feared the media would use WWE footage of wrestlers in chokeholds. At this point, no media outlets have shown any footage relating to chokeholds. Credit: Wrestling Observer
  17. So I watched that........Glenn Beck has no idea what he's talking about......he's exactly what people mean when you say someone has no idea what people are talking about. Saying there's no athletic talent in wrestling......he's just acting as if wrestling shouldn't exist at all. He taps right into every single stereotype out out there, the white trash the idiots are fans........every stereotype, real hard edge reporting right there.
  18. It's the same list that appears on numerous websites like onlineworldofwrestling it includes everyone that has died.....car accidents, cancer anything, anyone that is known at all that wrestled is on the list regardless of what they died from.
  19. Ohhh that cuts deep.....Mero probably felt that one. Meltzer or Alvarez will probably call Lance some moron or something now.

    WWE General Discussion for July 2007

    Some of the other women people around here like wouldn't be around without the Diva searches.......I don't particulary care for them personally. But to just point out the winners skirts that I know for a fact that some people around here like Maria, Brooke Adams, Candice Michelle and the like. Without the Diva search none of them would exist either........it goes both ways.
  22. What type of idiotic strawman argument is that? Do you just expect the NFL to magically invent a test that can detect The Clear? It took DECADES to develop a test for HGH, and all they have so far is a blood test that only detects it immediately after the subject has injected it. It's the argument that if someone really wants to do steroids...they will and they will get away with. Even with stringent testing if a guy really wants to use steroids and not get caught doing it, he will. Only morons like Shawne Merriman get caught.....the WWE can implement a drug policy on par with the NFL's if they want but guys will still find ways to beat it just as NFL players do. There's a hell of alot more than just steroids as to why guys are dropping dead and I don't see the WWE giving guys an offseason or drastically reducing dates to help with this..... Did you even see my post? I'd like to see you respond to it. Also, your comment implies that we should not have testing at all, since anyone can get around it and therefore it doesn't prove to be of any use. Do you not see why people might not take you seriously? Also, how do you not see why an offseason would help? As stated earlier the Japanese style of wrestling is much more demanding on a person's body, but the reason why they're not dropping dead is because of the time off. Dynamite Kid for one mentions in his book how that made his life alot easier while wrestling there, even though his matches with Sayama were pretty daredevil, at least for their time. Not nearly as many Puro guys roid up either, as you can tell by their looks, if nothing else. You come as a huge hypocrite criticizing the media for bashing pro wrestling than saying the NFL is full of "steroid mutants". I'm sorry, but in the NFL guys don't take steroids nearly as much as you think, and the testing, contrary to whatever you may believe, is actually pretty stringent and relatively effective. Finally, they're all world class athletes. Are there some great athletes in the WWE? Sure. But if you had to ask me which org., the NFL or the WWE, had a higher proportion of steroid mutants, I'd have to say the WWE and their fill of a bunch of sluggish brick shithouses beats out the NFL any day of the week. Uh, I didn't say an offseason wouldn't help I said things like that are more of an issue than even the steroids are. I said the WWE isn't going to do one because it will affect their bottom line as a company. The WWE employs roughly 150 wrestlers........there are 53 football players per 32 teams and I'd be willing to bet money atleast 50% of the league is juicing, namely lineman, LB's and RB's.....the LB's are the really easy ones to point out. I'm not even trying to say hey it's ok or something like that. My point is simple, if you watch any sport, or any athletics steroids are running rampant these days. To think that any sport is effectivly keeping roids out of their game is highly naive. If you watch and support wrestling or any real sports you basically just accept that their is steroid usage. If you really really hate steroids and think anyone who does them is cheating you should probably stop watching anything athletic all together. I read about golfers juicing the other day fucking golfers, it's everywhere. My NFL point was just that tons of athletes in general are juicing these days not just wrestlers, Glenn Beck should go nuts on all the roided up violent football players that get arrested for domestic violence all the time....but that won't happen. There's problems in every single sport these days in regards to steroid usage, problems that will likely never be fixed do to new undetectable steroids. If you think a WWE can't afford designer steroids that's also naive......the lowest paid WWE guy is pulling down what 150 grand a year? Cena pulled overall close to 5 mill last year........these guys can skirt a stringent test if they need to. The WWE policy makes it where right now they don't have to do that though, which leaves them open to a lot more attack than say the NFL. Justcoz argument makes some sense to me, Jingus called his point lame about well other companies hire them whatever. Look if Kurt Angle dropped dead tomorrow, the WWE would be blamed for that despite them parting ways with him due to problems. As long as other companies will hire them the WWE will look bad. People are blaming the WWE for deaths of guys they had gotten rid of...if someone else is willing to hire a guy you fired and then they die for not changing their lifestyle, you still get blamed despite parting with him. I think my biggest problem is people blaming the WWE for every single problem in wrestling. Guys that roid up that never worked there or do it down in Mexico......that is a wrestling problem not a WWE problem. Konnan isn't fucked up because of Vince or the WWE.....no matter how bad he wants to say it. He worked almost all of his career in Mexico and WCW, he really has no place to say he's fucked up at all because of the WWE yet he sure came off that way. If some star down in AAA dies because he did a ton of roids and drugs being a star in Mexico that will somehow be the WWE's fault when the WWE likely has no clue who the guy even is. I'm just very tired of problems that are inherent in the industry on all ends, all sides and all countries are being acted as though by some people like they are a WWE problem that they created and begins and ends with them. It's that whole "I hate the WWE let's blame them for everything" mantality some people have.

  24. Bryan Alvarez appears to be a defeated man... Maybe I'll be wrong. I hope so. Toxicology told us we'll never know the answers. I pretty much knew that three weeks ago. But during that three-week period, it really seemed to me like headway might be made towards making things better in the future. The "list of dead wrestlers", as absurd as it was, was at least opening people's eyes up to a problem. The WWE drug policy was seriously questioned and the possibilities of regulation and congressional hearings were raised. It really looked like there was the potential for some sort of positive change. Instead, it now appears the media is getting tired of this story after not getting the answers they wanted, and they're ready to move on. And that's just another in a long line of tragedies, and guarantees more.
