Guest wildpegasus Report post Posted July 9, 2003 It looks like they're going to have Benoit vs Gunn at Vengenace for the US title with Rhyno somehow costing Benoit the match to set up their feud. Hopefully, the WWE will try to swerve us and put Eddy in the finals as well. For anyone interested, wrestlingobserver.com now has spoilers up as well.

Guest Mulatto Heat Report post Posted July 9, 2003 I think this is their way of trying to get smarks to buy the PPV. The possibility of two Eddy matches, two Benoit matches, and Rey/Kidman v. TGTTE. Well, we'll get Gunn winning the title, one Eddy and Benoit match, and the tag title match will be less than 10 minutes. Exactly. Think I'm going to fall for that? Dream on. That reminds me, has anyone here read any justifications for the Redneck Triathalon? My eyes hurt from just reading about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Hollywood Fashion Plate Report post Posted July 9, 2003 Show and The Greatest Tag Team Ever (new name for Haas & Benjamin) over Brock. Awesome ending as Brock pulls steel stairs up to the table, prepares to drop Show off the stairs.. then Show reverses, and chokeslams Lesnar onto the table. Great-looking spot. So, Big Show beat Brock again? That sucks. What happened to Haas & Benjamin being called "The Best Damn Tag Team Period?" Fox Sports might have raised a complaint about it. And we don't know HOW Dragon jobbed, so that might make a bit of difference in how this match is perceived. Oh, and WON-LOSS RECORDS DON'T REALLY MATTER because a) This is not a sport and b) Rey Misterio hasn't won on PPV EVER and no mark seems to think he sucks as a result.

Guest Anglesault Report post Posted July 9, 2003 Smackdown opens with an Angle promo, Cena interrupts to run off some rhymes and before you know it Angle and Cena are having a rap battle with the Hebner kid doing beatbox again, just like he did for Kendrick a couple of months ago. It was pretty funny stuff actually, Angle looked like he was really having fun and the crowd loved it. Somewhere in there they announce that the Vengeance main event will now be a three way between Angle, Lesnar and Show. Later on in the show there were a few more of those comedic Angle / Lesnar segments too. Oh, goodie. /Scar Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Lord of The Curry Report post Posted July 9, 2003 Win-loss records don't matter to an extent but you're not saying good things when you job out a semi-heavily hyped wrestler in his second match in. I guess it's what's called "paying your dues." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Askewniverse Report post Posted July 9, 2003 Was that Jericho's second WWE match or second PPV match? PPV. Okay, so it's not exactly the same thing, but most people had a similar reaction when it happened. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest RavishingRickRudo Report post Posted July 9, 2003 Man, reading those old threads about Dragon being signed and the variety of people saying that the WWE wouldn't botch it and calling everyone like me too cynical and jaded and all that bullshit and that he'd be ok...

Guest Space_Cowboy Report post Posted July 9, 2003 WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU SAYING NOW!!!!?!! "Give it another week." "Building stars takes time." "He needs to pay his dues first." "He lost to a good wrestler in Eddy so it's not that bad." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest wildpegasus Report post Posted July 9, 2003 My thoughts on Dragon jobbing (was it clean?) I have complete faith in the WWE to completely and utterly destroy Dragon. Still, I don't think he's quite ruint yet. They shouldn't have him jobbing out on his 2nd tevelised match but that doesn't mean the WWE bookers have dug themselves too deep a hole in the ground. However the WWE has started to dig that hole and I wouldn't be surprised at all to see that hole getting bigger and bigger by the time it's all said and done. Remember-Ultimo is Japanese. That's worse than being from WCW. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Thunder Rising!!! Report post Posted July 9, 2003 Usually I'm not so negative towards the product but.... You know what? Vince is just pissing on everyone, especially puroresu fans who believes that the japanese product is far superior than the wwe. Ultimo Dragon is jobbed in his 2nd match just to piss puro fans off for their belief, that is what they are doing. On Zack Gowen, they are stuffing him down our throats so much it makes those who can't wait to see his wwe debut match lose most of their interest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest CanadianChick Report post Posted July 9, 2003 From WO: 2. Rhyno & Benoit d. Matt Hardy & Shannon Moore. Pretty solid match. Hardy has a new entrance video and sadly no more Matt facts.

Guest wildpegasus Report post Posted July 9, 2003 Quote Canadian Chick "They changed his entrance. Why?" Don't ever dobut the WWE. Trust them. Love them. Follow them. Cherish them. They know what they're doing. Sure, the Matt Hardy entrance was great but they obvious have come up with a better entrance to get Hardy more heat with the fans. Sheesh, some people are just so negative. It looks like Edge's negative attitude towards booking is rubbing off on you. Lighten up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
