Guest AndrewTS Posted March 13, 2003 Report Posted March 13, 2003 As mentioned before, I was there for the taping, sooo--I'll do the honors: WrestleMania comes early this Thursday night at 8/7 CT on UPN when Brock Lesnar faces Kurt Angle with the WWE Championship on the line! It became clear in recent weeks that these two simply couldn't wait until March 30 to face off in the ring. Kurt Angle has done everything in his power to avoid this match, but he can't hid any longer. Brock won the rights to a shot at a title last week by fending off a full-fledged assault from Team Angle and pinning Paul Heyman in a steel cage. Will Angle's shoulders hit the mat for a three-count this week? Tune in Thursday night for this spectacular match! WrestleMania will continue to take shape over the next few weeks. As of right now, there are still plenty of Superstars who hope to be on the card come March 30. Will we see more matches announced for this sports-entertainment spectacular this week? Tune in to UPN on Thursday at 8/7 CT to find out! Also this Thursday night, get ready for Torrie Wilson's scorching hot spread in Playboy Magazine! SmackDown! will reveal the cover of the next issue with the SmackDown! Diva showing her stuff! But that's not all. After SmackDown! ends at 10 p.m. ET, click over to pay-per-view for a Girls Gone Wild spring break spectacular, featuring Torrie, Nidia and much more! -- WWE.com Other matches: Matt Hardy makes a challenge... Team Angle vs. Rey Mysterio and Billy Kidman Rikishi vs. Chuck Palumbo Rhyno & Chris Benoit vs. Los Guerreros Big Show & A-Train vs. Funaki and Tajiri EDIT: Wow, that was pinned quickly! Kudos!
Guest JHawk Posted March 13, 2003 Report Posted March 13, 2003 I know WWE is counting on Brock-Angle to draw the ratings, but couldn't most of those matches have been "announced"? Or is every match "made" during the show? Just a pet peeve of mine for a taped show.

They figure people turn in for only the main event and the crap like the Torrie Playboy cover. *groan*
Guest nikowwf Posted March 13, 2003 Report Posted March 13, 2003 Wow, Gail Kim is hot. Post more just to show that picture. Niko
Guest AndrewTS Posted March 13, 2003 Report Posted March 13, 2003 Wow, Gail Kim is hot. Post more just to show that picture. Niko Heheh--right. It's a shame that she wasn't at the show.
Guest JHawk Posted March 13, 2003 Report Posted March 13, 2003 See, tuning in for the main event is fine if they deliver. I haven't seen tonight's spoilers, but I know people who did tune into Raw for just the main event, and they didn't deliver on that. Besides, what about the people who don't want to see Brock vs. Angle? There has to be some moron out there who won't watch now.
Guest AndrewTS Posted March 13, 2003 Report Posted March 13, 2003 Niko: How's the new Gail pic strike ya? JHawk: Yeah...I marked out for the ending of SD live, but it's going to come off as a huge cop-out for the home audience. They really need to come up with a plan and stick to it unless they can't avoid it. I guess with info on Angle's neck changing left and right it's hard to make a plan and stick to it.
Guest Will Scarlet Posted March 14, 2003 Report Posted March 14, 2003 (edited) Sounds decent enough. I liked Hardy's challenge from what I read on the spoilers. The Guerreros are always fun. Of course... Spoiler (Highlight to Read): Tajiri and Funaki job but hey I am used to it. Sorry. Just wanted to use that tag. Oh yeah, and where's Bill DeMott? I need my "time to get a snack" break on the show. Edited March 14, 2003 by Will Scarlet

Bill's on Velocity.
Guest Will Scarlet Posted March 14, 2003 Report Posted March 14, 2003 Bill's on Velocity. Dammit! He's stinking up Velocity again. At least he's squashing indy guys now. I was sick of him beating up Funaki. Ah well. I am awaiting Velocity. It has a super rare occurence on it, along with Tajiri, and it also has Matt Stryker who I love using in EWR, so I am awaiting seeing him in action. I cannot wait for Saturday.
Guest AndrewTS Posted March 14, 2003 Report Posted March 14, 2003 Yeah. It's a shame that Bill even is going to make it on TV, and the sweet Noble vs. Tajiri match was a dark match.
Guest D'Lo White Posted March 14, 2003 Report Posted March 14, 2003 (edited) Niko: How's the new Gail pic strike ya? I don't know about Niko, but unfortunately its striking me as a red X. A couple of those matches on Smackdown look to be really bad. I just hope the rest of them could save the show and that the Angle/Brock thing isn't done too bad. Whatever happen to that great week when Rikishi was stuck on Velocity. I'd rather watch DeMott. Edited March 14, 2003 by D'Lo White
Guest Kotzenjunge Posted March 14, 2003 Report Posted March 14, 2003 I mark for Will's Lee Jung Hyun sig. Sorry, nothing else to really add to this thread.
Guest AndrewTS Posted March 14, 2003 Report Posted March 14, 2003 Niko: How's the new Gail pic strike ya? I don't know about Niko, but unfortunately its striking me as a red X. Should be working now.
Yuna_Firerose Posted March 14, 2003 Report Posted March 14, 2003 They really should take Rock out of the intro, in my opinion.
Guest Will Scarlet Posted March 14, 2003 Report Posted March 14, 2003 ASAI MOONSAULT~! Damn. Rey is carrying to this whole match to awesomeness.
Yuna_Firerose Posted March 14, 2003 Report Posted March 14, 2003 No wonder Kidman is injured. Ouchies!
Yuna_Firerose Posted March 14, 2003 Report Posted March 14, 2003 I'd give it ***. Knoble at the Playboy Mansion!!
Guest Will Scarlet Posted March 14, 2003 Report Posted March 14, 2003 How many stars would you give it? I say about **½. Give or take a ½*. I probably overrated it though.
Guest JMA Posted March 14, 2003 Report Posted March 14, 2003 Jamie, You're married and that accent is horrible. Stick to your GREAT matches, boy. Ugh. I HATE security guards.
Guest El Satanico Posted March 14, 2003 Report Posted March 14, 2003 It looked like Rey was the newest member of FBI. Kidman's injury spot was rather weak. Billy Kidman's even dull while blowing dangerous moves.
Yuna_Firerose Posted March 14, 2003 Report Posted March 14, 2003 JMA...if you don't find Knoble or Hurricane entertaining, then I'm curious as to what does entertain you.
Guest JMA Posted March 14, 2003 Report Posted March 14, 2003 James "Nunzio" Maritato is SO fucking cool. No one wears a leather jacket like him.
