Angle/Benoit at Unforgiven

[Guest The Ruthless Aggressor]

All signs indicate that the anticipated Kurt Angle vs. Chris Benoit match will happen at the WWE Unforgiven PPV unless WWE decides to change plans at the last second.

Well there's my reason for taping the show.

[Guest bps "The Truth" 21]

I'm all for good matches...

 

but from a WWE standpoint...

 

who do you job here?

 

Benoit again?

 

Or do you kill Angle's momentum...again?

 

Book meet corner.

Maybe this will be the double turn mof the 21st century.

 

Benoit becomes face and angle becomes face....

 

er uh nevermind.

That would actually be pretty cool. It's certainly something we've never seen before.

[Guest Insane Bump Machine]

I just hope that they do a straight wrestling match. no gimmicks required.

[Guest BionicRedneck]

If this is a long-term fued, someone has to turn face. Benoit is the better choice as he place a babyface much better than Kurt. The problem there is that with all this 9/11 stuff they may chose to turn Kurt, but I doubt it.

 

Last year, the WrestleMania match was very good, but the rest of their series left a little to be desired, and no one really gained from the fued. I doubt anyone will gain from this either, but the matches should be as good if not better, as Kurt is better than he was last year.

 

One way or the other this should be a very interesting match.

[Guest bps "The Truth" 21]

The only person who can benefit from this is Benoit if they decidew to give him a hard push to the top.

 

I don't think Angle gains anything from beating Benoit...because Benoit has been used so oddly since his return.

 

But if Benoit went over Angle and began a push to take on Brock...that could work.

 

However, I would assume the long term plan is to get Angle up there at some point...so as I said...

 

book meet corner

[Guest goodhelmet]

well, benoit definitely needs the win more. the fed has had no problem jobbing either out but angle is so insanely over that a loss to the best wrestler in north america today would not kill his heat. plus, if they turn angle face then this would be the one time i could see them actually building up the heel for the babyface to eventually over (but not at unforgiven). either way, bring on the **** matches!

[Guest Spaceman Spiff]

Book meet corner

They seem to be doing a lot of that lately...

[Guest bps "The Truth" 21]

I can't remember when they didn't book themselves into a corner.

 

Starting with the terrible RVD/Brock feud...

 

How do you put Brock over...when he can't beat RVD for the IC title?

 

Lame.

 

Since then it's been crap.

[Guest Masked Heel]

This is a tough call and you have to look long term to get the answer i believe if its a one shot deal it could go either way as godhelmet said wwe has no problem jobbing either i too see Beniot getting the nod i feel he needs the win more Angle is comming off beating Ray Beniot comming off of losing to RVD if you want to hot shot Angle into a program with Brock or at least keep an underlying storyline going for Wrestlemania look for Brock to cost Kurt the match or if your intent is to turn Kurt face Beniot still goes over with dasterdly heel tactics either way the match will be great on its own i'd love to see it go off with no run ins even if Brock appears or just talks shit to Kurt after his match

That would actually not be a bad idea.

Yeah I know.

 

That is why it is stillborn. Now if I figured out a way to Bogart the heat to a certain anteater.....

[Guest Anglesault]

Yet another example of the STEPH-O-MATIC 2002 AUTOMATIC BOOKER! Take two guys you absolutely REFUSE to push for whatever reason, and who desperately need a win, and book them AGAINST eachother so you can keep them away from the main events. GENIUS, I tells ya!

 

At least the matches will be good.

[Guest Smell the ratings!!!]

was that a shred of optimisim at the end there?

 

 

Yes, the matches will be very good. For that reason, I will pretend that both guys aren't being held down and enjoy the matches.

 

the matches will be good, the matches will be good, the matches wil be good.

[Guest Anglesault]

Oh Christ. I just realized. Whoever is the face with probably end up playing a twitty Tanto to Edge against the heel and Eddy.

 

[Guest Brian]

What is Eddie going to do? Feud longer with Edge?

[Guest snowfan]

Bingo!

 

(according to WWE) sublime anti-hispanism=ratings

[Guest Anglesault]

It appears so. I wonder who the fuck Eddy pissed off.

[Guest Brian]

Whomever Angle pissed off.

[Guest wolverine]

Here's hoping it's extremely stiff and that they give them 20 minutes.

Beer(beer=you are right!)

 

(as in if we were in a bar talking wrestling I'd buy you a cold one)

[Guest Anglesault]

Whomever Angle pissed off.

Would anyone else like to see the look on the Victim of the Month's (In this case Eddy) face when they are told that as a reward for all their hard work, they get to get manhandled by Edge week in and week out for two months?

[Guest HartFan86]

I love the idea of making a double face turn. I think all they have to do is go out there and have a ****+ match that gets the crowd into it and they do the mutual respect bit, that would work.

Someone desperately wants to make Edge look credible. I love how they are catering to the "Hardy demographic". Edge is a pretty boy who needs workrate.

 

On the bright side if Angle, Eddy, et al survive the heat vacuum known as Adam Copeland then you know they are semi-indestructable.

[Guest BionicRedneck]

I can't wait for the Angle face turn which leads to an alliance with Edge, I'm sure you agree Mr.Sault.

[Guest Anglesault]

Of course, Angle will be Robin to Edge's Batman, because even though Angle is a two time world champ, Edge is the star (Just ask Edge)

[Guest Brian]

I guess Benoit is next, which means he'll need the win over Angle to get momentum so that Edge can take it and trip. I win.

I wish it would be allowed to happen. I am a huge Hart mark too. I think an old school grapplefest could get over.

 

Problem is the powers that be don't want anyone but a Moose, a Zombie, an AArdvark, or a Pebble to be megaover.

 

Bankruptcy will be a great release on creativity for vince.

Read this...and I think you'll see that he doesn't agree.
