Guest Spaceman Spiff Report post Posted July 30, 2003 as a *GREAT* move by Matt on Spanky that started out as a Razor's Edge but ended up as a powerbomb. That's just Splash Mountian, right? Matt's been using that pretty frequently. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest FeArHaVoC Report post Posted July 30, 2003 The ref will be Kurt Angle?? I smell screw job. I smell over-booked. Big Show run in. A-Train run in. Angle gets knocked out. Bunch of shit happens. Angle wakes up to see Vince covering a bloody Brock and forced to count 1-2-3. More tension between Angle and Brock leading up to SummerSlam. Someone is going to get my foot in their ass if Taker goes over Cena again next week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Mulatto Heat Report post Posted July 30, 2003 I think Benoit is in his "man if I wasn't making 6 figures I'd be soooo out of here" phase. Never stopped him before. There's no competition for Benoit to go to though. Big Difference. Maybe no competition, but he does have an alternative. Oh Yeah...Go to the po Dunk Nashville company or leave your family half-way around the world. No idiot at the age of 34 would do that... I didn't say they were the most idel choices, but there is a choice if he got tired of the same ol' in WWE. Honest to God, it might be in his best interest to go down to TNA for a while. One he is there, he would without a doubt become the centerpiece of their programs. Give him a few months there, taking their world title, and then coming back to WWE. By the time he's done in TNA, WWE might be begging him back to put him into a high profile program. I personally think he's ok where he is and that he'll eventually get his turn as he's just in line right now, but still, he could go off somewhere else if he really wanted to, and it COULD help him in theory. Again... Wasn't his desire and Goal to make it to the top of the business and that is without a doubt WWE. Why go back down to the lower depths of TNA for 1500 seat fans and 15000 national viewers. His name isn't big enough to drive TNA up the market... Chris Benoit already been through enough hell Physically that he doesn't need to do that. Benoit hasn't shown any indication that he is "frustrated" and it's merely IWC speculation/hope that Benoit is fed up with it. It is quite possible that his going to TNA, while it's much smaller, could give him a lot of what he might need to do well in WWE the very place he hopes to reach the top of. Who knows what type of work they would give him, angles, etc... It might be good for him to be on top of SOMETHING for a while, tune his skills on the mic, emotional expression, etc... Besides, if he did go to TNA and won their world title and was there for a few months, he would be something of a larger name when he returned to WWE. Not only could his absense help clear the fans minds of his shortcomings in the mid-card, but his return could be really built up by WWE as a returning superstar, Kurt Angle's former rival, and a World Champion. It wouldn't be the first time that someone going to another organazation helped them in the larger one. Again, I'm not saying this should happen, I'm simply stating that it's possible. At times, going down can help you in your eventual rise to the top. I'm really, really sorry Downhome, but this is one of the most ludicrous things I have ever seen that was presented as a legitimate idea. I can't even begin to point out what is (a) wrong with it and (b) what has NO chance of happening. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Downhome Report post Posted July 30, 2003 I'm really, really sorry Downhome, but this is one of the most ludicrous things I have ever seen that was presented as a legitimate idea. I can't even begin to point out what is (a) wrong with it and (b) what has NO chance of happening. Why is it so ludicrous, seeing that it's happened in the past all through the history of Pro. Wrestling. A guy in one federation isn't as high up the card as he "should" be, leaves said federation for a smaller group, becomes a huge star in the smaller group, when contract runs out he goes back to the larger federation and is then pushed higher up the card since his name means more, gained more experiance, and finally has a spot open. I agree there is no chance of it happening, unless Benoit himself decided to try it. Still, it's worked for people for year and years, and there is no reason why it might not work with Benoit or anyone else now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Boo_Bradley Report post Posted July 30, 2003 I've been watching for 20 years, and when the crap is on, I turn the channel. You couldn't have been watching for 20 years then, because pretty much all of 1995 was shit. I was in full mark mode at that point, I liked Bigelow and Diesel and Hogan and Savage and 1-2-3-kid and Razor and Flair and Vader and Shawn and Sid. To this very day I still watch matches that would make the average Smark cry.... Tatanka and Jim Niehart of all people were two of my favorate wrestlers, just to show my lack of "taste" (although not in 95) Not sure if this proves anything other than my masosistic (sp?)tendencies...

Guest Polish_Rifle Report post Posted July 30, 2003 Sounds like Matt got some serious heat after the beat down on Gowan. Could they actually be trying utilize him in the foreseeable future? I also love how Cena keeps making homosexual references about Taker. Maybe that's why taker found it fit to squash him in the first part of their match at he PPV.

Guest Retro Rob Report post Posted July 30, 2003 I'm still in shock that Shannon Moore won... it looks as though Gowen is being punished for opening up Vinnie. Or maybe Gowen is just going to feud with people in the CW division. According to his commentary he was under the impression that he would work with the Cruisers, not the owner of the company.

Guest Anglesault Report post Posted July 30, 2003 Vince vs. Brock? Give me a fucking break. This should be an even bigger squash than Shane/Kane....well I dunno about that, but this is just shit. Vince wrestling on PPV aint enough I guess.... Since 1999 Vince has always been promoted as someone who can and is willing to take a beating. Out of the Dozens of matches Vince has been in, he has won 3 I believe (Vs Shane on Raw/ vs HHH on SD!/ and vs Flair on Raw) so the suspension of belief is justified IMO. Age is just a number, Vince may be older, but should he immeditly be completely inept defensively because of it? *Boo Realizes he's leaving open holes for his argument to be blown apart with* If Brock, the huge montser that only two people (Show-three times, Angle-twice) can beat sells ANYTHING for the near 60 year old owner, he's ruined. Not a punch, not a kick, not a chairshot, nothing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Lord of The Curry Report post Posted July 30, 2003 Moore/Gowan You say that like it's a good thing... Yeah but Gowan jobs, so you should all be very happy. Seriously, we get Eddie-Tajiri...Benoit wins, and is put in a meaningful feud for once...Rey-Benjamin...Gowan jobs to Shannon Moore...Angle wins again...we have two matches announced in advance for next week so they obviously are planning ahead...we get Gowan dropped down the card like you wanted AS(although you'll probably reply with some bull about he shouldn't even be a wrestler because he's only got one leg etc)... And on the bad side? Some skits with Noble/Torrie/Nidia/Gunn. And people are still complaining. Explain to me how Benoit vs Rhyno is meaningful. It's fucking retarded. They tease the turn, ditch it, have them play nice and THEN turn Rhyno? Yeah, that's the way to do it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rhyno's anger was building up, he tried to hold it down and form a good team for his own gain, but it was no good. Eventually after all their confrontations and stuff, he acted like buddies with Benoit and he was waiting for the right time to really screw over Benoit...like the US Title Tournament match. See he was plotting Benoit downfall in advance...so therefore he's EVIL~! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
