Thanks for the Fish

We'll probably get a freaks stable with Vis, Thorn and Boogeyman and the fans will groan whenever they come out. I think Vis could be a contender if he dropped the current gimmick, but it doesn't look like that is in the cards. ECW has to lose somebody next, and since it's Raw's pick, it will probably be one of Punk, Burke or Cor Von.

Dammit, you already killed my buzz about the pick. Vis will keep his lame ass "Worlds Largest Love Machine" gimmick and just go after Extreme Expose.

I actually like Viscera. His match against Lashley was actually pretty good. Again I hope for a name change, but I'd like to see him pushed and established. Given his size and agility he should be more than a jobber. Have him drop his gimmick, call himself by his real name Nelson Fraizer and give him a big push. I want to hear Joey sream "Down goes Fraizer! Down goes Fraizer!"

That and no secondary titles really hurts the brand. I'd rather watch OVW programming in ECW's spot actually...

If thats the case, then why were they hyping the fact that tag teams can be broken apart via the draft? I just think the wrestlers didn't know and assumed they could be broken up. Of course they probably changed their mind, but it's a decent enough cover.

I'll gladly change mine, I've hated it since I initially registered with it...

I assume ECW will get a Raw wrestler as well. And then SD! will take an ECW wrestler. If each brand is going to gain and lose four wrestlers, I hope they leave Punk, Cor Von and Burke on ECW (assuming Benoit is exempt from moving). Maybe lose Kelly Kelly, Thorn, Holly and Striker or something...

Tag Teams are considered one entity. Teams can't be split up - I guess Nitro and Dykstra were not considered an established team. First thing I hope SD! does is change Kenny's ring name.

SD! picks Kenny Dykstra. Boo!! Should have kept Nitro and Kenny together.

A pick every half hour would have a total pf 8 picks made. I think it will be every 20 minutes... 12 picks total, four to each brand - I pick per brand per hour...

ECW should add Paul Burchill, Jay Bradley and Idol Stevens to Benoit, Corvon, Punk and Burke and actually flesh out their roster.

Likely Cryme Tyme or The Highlanders...

Let the raping begin in the supplemental draft. SD! is nothing but the minor leagues to Raw. SD! establishes the talent and then Raw takes them, will use and abuse them, job them out and then look to the draft again next year. There isn't a tag team on Raw that could replace London and Kendrick on SD! Raw will forget and neglect their tag division two weeks from now. $10 bucks says SD! will eventually get The Highlanders as "replacement"...

This will be awkward for the wwe to handle given the current storyline. Anyody have the WM7 Savage vs Warrior encounter and post match angle on youtube (or the less popular though likely better options) ??

They're just pushing the CW right now so that their night of champions title match has any heat behind it. They really just need to ship Noble to ECW and kill the division. With the handcuffs the CW's are forced to wrestle with, it's not like they're having kick ass matches that you can't see in the ME scene. I'd much rather see Paul London feud with Finlay or Jamie Noble feud with Chris Benoit than see Jimmy Wang Yang vs Chavo Guerrero for the cruiserweight title.

I believe the initial source to this rumor was Paul London. London supposedly told a fan at an airport that Ashley was filming Survivor, which got picked up by some survivor fan sites, and they no doubt contacted TMZ. Not saying it's right or wrong, but I'm surprised Survivor is casting television personalities, however this could be a celebrity edition as there is supposedly some professional poker player (not anybody you'd recognize - not any of the known entities that I've ever heard of anyways) cast as well. Coming from London, it could be a joke that has blown up.

Was Vickie Guerrero part of the proceedings...

Tonights SD! Taping snippet -

Vince fakes his own death in order to try and make people forget that Raw adds Lashley, Kennedy, Booker T while SD! adds Torrie, Flair, Khali and Masters!!

While that was definitely a WTF moment, it was also silly as hell...

ECW gets a 1.3 rating whereas SD! is in the mid 3's...

I really don't know why I watch this shit.

And they already waste Lashley and Booker Vs Cena...

You'd have to figure that the "big names" would have been done as part of the show...

SD! loses Kennedy, Booker and Benoit and adds Flair, Khali, Torrie Wilson and Chris Masters... Maybe if Raw did a better job of building their midcard and didn't have Cena and HHH squash their competition they wouldn't need to treat SD! like a farm team...
