Guest GameCop Report post Posted July 15, 2003 RAW was such a bore...it is truly a cure for insomnia. My favorite wrestlers -- RVD and Jericho -- didn't wrestle, but Rodney Mack, Rosey, and Spike Dudley did! I got to see Randy Orton shoved down my throat again; I still don't see anything in this guy that warrants such a push. God...I hope we don't have to see Orton vs. HBK in a high-profile match at SummerSlam. If Orton interferes on behalf of Y2J next week, and costs HBK the match, I'm not ordering SummerSlam. Orton sucks and can't hold a candle to guys like Eddy G, RVD, Benoit, Cena...etc. Even Goldberg who is supposed to wrestle HHH at SummerSlam has been absent for the past 2 weeks. Goldberg can even be entertaining in his matches, albeit brief squash matches. We had to see Booker T vs. Christian AGAIN!!! This is why the brand extension sucks: we'll have to see the same matches every fuckin' week because of WWE's inability to be creative. And the Kane angle at the end? This isn't 1991 or 1997. I'm laughing at Kane the Retard and I hope everyone else is, too. Looks like we'll have a PPV in disguise next week ala Clash of the Champions, with two monumental matches: RVD vs. Kane and Y2J vs. HBK II One has gotta like the conceit of promoting matches ahead of time, but dislike the fact that both matches will be on RAW and quickly forgotten in two weeks. WWE is truly a sad, sad company. WWE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest bob_barron Report post Posted July 15, 2003 He doesn't have to wrestle, you moron. Even Meltzer reported that Goldberg would be there in a non-wrestling capacity. Goldberg can't cut a promo. He can't act. He doesn't work well in backstage skits. He's best used coming out- SPEAR JACKHAMMER goodbye. Since he can't wrestle there's no use having him on the show Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest GameCop Report post Posted July 15, 2003 I'm sure Goldberg wasn't so injured that he couldn't do the spear/jackhammer combo. Even a cripple could do those two moves. Bottom line is -- WWE has shown time and time again -- and this is no exception -- their incompetence and ineptitude. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bottom line is -- WWE has shown time and time again -- and this is no exception -- their incompetence and ineptitude. HIS ARM IS HURTING. So it'd be kind of hard to spear people wouldn't it?

Guest Askewniverse Report post Posted July 15, 2003 U mean you want Goldberg to do the one thing he can not do? Act? Goldberg can't act? Well, you could have fooled me, because I thought that he gave an Oscar-worthy performance in Universal Soldier. Then there's his comedic performance, such as failing to start his car and running into a man wearing a steel plate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Since he can't wrestle there's no use having him on the show All the same, they really need to figure out a way to keep Goldberg on the audience's mind if they want to make anything out of him. By the time he wrestles again, it's not going to be "It's Goldberg! Yay!" It's going to be "Oh, that bald WCW guy is still here?" Since he can't do promos, I have no idea what else they could do with him though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Choken One Report post Posted July 15, 2003 U can't just start pushing him for the Main event since you can't tell where the fuck the injury is going... U keep him off for three weeks...He returns and people will be "Hey It's that one guy...where has he been? HOLY SHIT that was sick spear!" and they forget he was even gone...

Guest GameCop Report post Posted July 15, 2003 All of you Goldberg bashers need to understand one thing: Goldberg CAN act!! Ok...maybe he isn't the greatest orator in the world, but the guy can sell with the best of'em. Remember Goldberg vs. Rock and Goldberg vs. Y2J? Goldberg did an unbelievable job selling his shoulder.

Guest Choken One Report post Posted July 15, 2003 That statement from Game cop shows how incredibly Naive he is... Lifting a Human Body with One Arm is a fucking risky thing to do and not to mention that It's fucking goldberg in that ring... WHO would risk life and death with a INJURED goldberg?

Guest Askewniverse Report post Posted July 15, 2003 Anybody with a death wish. Besides, Goldberg has injured people while he was healthy. I'm sorry to beat a dead horse, but Bret Hart comes to mind. It wasn't just the superkick either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest GameCop Report post Posted July 15, 2003 Please... The other wrestler does 50% of the work involved in doing the jackhammer. The jackhammer, mind you, is a glorified GENERIC SUPLEX. The Jackhammer isn't emerald fusion, or the screwdriver, it's a SUPLEX. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Anglesault Report post Posted July 15, 2003 The jackhammer, mind you, is a glorified GENERIC SUPLEX. The Jackhammer isn't emerald fusion, or the screwdriver, it's a SUPLEX.

Guest Choken One Report post Posted July 15, 2003 INFECTION to the bone...So thus heavy lifting (things like a 230+ Human) won't be a good thing for the arm with it's weakend structure to endure leading to a Bone Injury Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest GameCop Report post Posted July 15, 2003 there's no physiological damage in an arm infection either; the muscles, ligaments and bone are all perfectly intact. If Austin can wrestle Kane at KOTR '98 with an arm infection, then Goldberg can, too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest bravesfan Report post Posted July 15, 2003 An arm infection still WEAKENS the limb to a horrendous state. The infection was bad enough for the trainers to pull him from last week's show; what makes you think it's some pussy injury that he could work through?
