I wonder what it's like having Elvis as your father.

 

Sorry, something just prompted me to say that.

I wonder what it is like being asked that very question in EVERY interview you give.

 

Hmm? Surprised she hasn't knifed some bastard from Entertainment Tonight yet.

I'm Lost...As Usual...How did we go from Hating and yelling about the product of WWE...

 

to

 

Elvis...

[Guest Memphis]

You can start by having a hot ass photo of his daughter in your sig.

[Guest Downhome]

I wonder how many women would want to sleep with Lisa Marie, just for the sake of making them FEEL like they are fucking Elvis himself.

 

Ok, that's enough of that.

 

I like Matt Hardy and Spanky more and more every time I see them in the ring or on the mic.

[Guest Memphis]

I swear I'll end the LMP talk after this post...

 

She went down on another girl her same age when she was 13.

 

Yep, have a GOOD NIGHT EVERYBODY!

Ew. Michael Jackson touched that.

I can't believe you guys liked ECW in late 2000. As a devoted ECW arena mutant I hated the last half of the year 2000. It was one of ECW's worst periods, along with late 1998-mid 1999. I guess I just have higher standards than you two marks.

[Guest RavishingRickRudo]

I understand what you are WANTING to do, but by putting down myself, and others like CC, is not helping anything. It's only making this place look like you can't have an opinion unless it's the popular opinion.

 

Again, always trying to be the fucking victim. Dude, no one is saying you can't have low standards, we are just saying you shouldn't have them. We are saying you shouldn't have to settle for less. And you shouldn't. You're letting Vince Mcmahon get away with robbery. If you see people Questioning you as "putting down" then you are WAY too sensitive about your opinion. As if your opinion cannot be questioned, as if it is a 'safe zone'.

[Guest geniusMoment]

Considering you settled for less with ECW your argument is meaningless.

[Guest RavishingRickRudo]

Jerry Lynn/Justin Credible/Steve Corino from the ECW me and Curry went to was off the charts. Get the fan-cam of it, one of the best 3 ways I've seen. The tag match between Doring/Roadkill and the FBI was insane, with Roadkill being the most over man ON THE PLANET for that night. Hardcore Heaven 2000 was a top notch PPV and Tajiri/Psi of that year was a MOTYC in a year full of em.

[Guest RavishingRickRudo]

The potential of ECW at that time compared to the potential of the WWE at this time is like night and day..

[Guest geniusMoment]

Are you kidding me? That show pales in comparison to almost any ECW arena show from 95-mid 97.

[Guest RavishingRickRudo]

I find people tend to overrate ECW from that time period. I haven't seen everything from that era, but from what I have seen, I'd put Tanaka vs. Ballz against anything from that time period.

Sweet sweet memories. The weird thing is, Carl Demaro (of WWE Canada) was sitting in the same section as us (CLUB SEATS BABY!) and I didn't say anything to him. If the same thing happened today at an indy show I'd probably kidnap him and hold him for ransom or some shit.

When I'm called a "fucktard", when I'm told I'm pathetic, I have reason to feel and say these things. Once you guys grow up and calm down and cut down on nonsense like that, not JUST with me but everyone else that feels like I do, then this place will run a lot more smoothly.

Those of you who remember the original topic of this thread raise your hands.

I saw DeMarco in a suite as I was leaving SmackDown last year in Ottawa. My friend and I told him to bring back Bret and he shrugged his shoulders and said something that we couldn't hear.

[Guest Memphis]

Can i get the definition of 'fucktard'?

[Guest geniusMoment]

Hardcore Heaven 2000 was not a great PPV. ECW just never came across on PPV's like it did live. The Justin title run was a disgrace. The three way with Corino/Lynn/Credible was set up to have New Jack be the special ref but he was taken out by Rhino and Credible. Instead we got an overbooked match with the refs fighting. It may have looked good in person but on television was no better than a *** match. Roadkill and Doring were finally coming into their own in late 2000 and there match with the FBI was good, thanks to mamalukes awesome bumping.

[Guest Lord of The Curry]

Who called you a fucktard? I'd put you more into the "Shitfuck" category.

 

Sorry, couldn't resist.

[Guest geniusMoment]

Also that show had Whipwreck/Kash going into Kash/Rhino where Rhino won back the title. It sounds better on paper than it came across on television.

Tanaka carried Ballz to a killer, brutal match.

 

Steve Corino v. Yoshihiro Tajiri was fuckin' the shit. The workrate and dedication visable in this match was astounding.

 

RVD & Lynn had their usual, quality outing.

 

It was enough to satisfy me, and i by no means have 'low standards'.

[Guest geniusMoment]

I just find it funny that you two guys are so eager to criticize others for liking WWE when you liked ECW when it was hurting, because of more than payroll problems. Credible should have never been made champion.

[Guest geniusMoment]

The problem with ECW ppvs is that they never showed what ECW truly was. Going to ECW was like going to a party.

[Guest Memphis]

Well I didn't once criticise anyone for digging WWE product at the moment.

 

ECW may have been in financial peril and fucked up on injuries, however those who were out there were busting ass and it was evident in Hardcore Heaven 2000.

[Guest geniusMoment]

I don't question dedication, I question the talent of the ECW crew.

[Guest RavishingRickRudo]

Hardcore Heaven 2000 was not a great PPV.

 

I said 'top notch', for the record. I feel it was one of their best...at least, out of all that I have seen. I *really* enjoyed Ballz/Tanaka, like I will still call it a MOTYC for that year and is one of my favourite ECW matches. I can see how people won't value it as much, but the crowd was into it, the near falls were believable and plentiful, it was stiff, the chemistry was amazing, everything *worked*, and it was like watching an all japan match..with chairs... Tajiri vs. Corino was brutal (in a good way!), RVD vs. Lynn was good, the 3-way with mikey, guido and diamond was good, the 3 way tag match had some wild stuff going on. The only problem I had with it was the main event. I won't say that the card "could have been worse", because it was good enough on its own.

 

ECW just never came across on PPV's like it did live.

 

Oh that's the truth. But then again, you can't really bottle that.

 

The Justin title run was a disgrace.

 

Yep. And? I'm not saying that 2000 was the best year ever, there was a lot of shit paul could have done to make it better. But the gap between how good it could have been and what it was was far smaller than how bad it could have been and how it was. Which is the opposite of today and the WWE. I would rather watch ECW in 2000 than the WWE today because at least they would try to do their best rather than make par...and fail.

 

The three way with Corino/Lynn/Credible was set up to have New Jack be the special ref but he was taken out by Rhino and Credible. Instead we got an overbooked match with the refs fighting. It may have looked good in person but on television was no better than a *** match.

 

Did they show that on TV? Was it their last TNN show? I don't recall whether or not they showed that in full, but I remember having some issue with what they did to it. Actually, watching it live I didn't think much of it, but watching the fan cam i was like HOLY SHIT this was a really killer match!

 

Roadkill and Doring were finally coming into their own in late 2000 and there match with the FBI was good, thanks to mamalukes awesome bumping.

 

Dude, mamaluke at that time would fall on his head if he got hit with a feather.

 

Also that show had Whipwreck/Kash going into Kash/Rhino where Rhino won back the title. It sounds better on paper than it came across on television.

 

I don't recall Kash/Rhino. I know Rhino came in and laid Kash out with a chunk of a table and then said "Rob Van Dam! Look what I did to your buddy!" RVD then came out and everyone marked out. RVD had a nice lil match with CW Anderson too.

I agree with a lot of the people on this board, that the WWE is no where near the level they should be. They arguably have the best roster they have ever had, and could get anyone else they wanted due to the monopoly. The simple fact is they don't want to listen to their fans but instead push tired old nostalgia acts in the hopes of regaining fans. Personally I find it hard to be positive about their product but to be fair I only see half of it because we only get Raw here in Australia, therefore I can't comment on Smackdown. The only positive thing about the current product is The Rock and he is leaving next week. The other things I liked about Raw were Jericho, Booker T and RVD, but Jericho isn't getting his rematch and win over HBK and this time next month will be Nash's personal bitch. Booker is going to get the same treatment every promising star gets, a pedigree and sent back to the mid-card. And RVD is stuck in a tag team with Kane, and one he is not likely to get out of for some time and the reason for this is so that HBK, Nash and HHH can suck each others cocks in the main event. The thing that annoys me the most is that this is not likely to change as HHH is practically family, and Vince thinks Roddy Piper, Goldberg and Sting are the solutions to his problems. When I move to England in 2 months I doubt I will even remain a fan because quite honestly the WWE don't deserve my money.
