OAO Smackdown thread - 3/11/04

DH:  I must have missed the part where Eddie is a monster heel and Shelton is a worthless midcarder who has had a dozen failed big pushes and has no real future.

Then I must have missed the part where Eddie is the WWE World Heavyweight Champion who is on the way to main even the biggest PPV in the history of WWE to take on Kurt Angle.

 

Shelton, here lately, has been less focused on than someone like Billy Gunn anyway. Hell, he just started getting back on TV in the past two weeks or so.

 

Like I said, I love that they faced off and it was a good match, but it's pretty much the exact same thing.

 

Eddie also basicly no-sold Shelton at the end of the match and "hulked up" after a punch, OMG!!!

 

Not to mention that his match wasn't even the last match on the card.

 

They are just screwing up this Eddie push, wow.

Why can't Bradshaw walk out, instead of Lesnar?

Because WWE keeps him supplied with beer and young rookies with sweet asses.

[Downhome 0]

Is there a match after this one?

[Guest JMA]

Bah. I'm really tired of fake relative tag-teams.

I fail to see how you answered my point.

 

Aside from that, why would you give Billy Gunn nearly ten minutes with anyone?

[ChrisMWaters 0]

Reason at least the people around me were cheering?

 

We didn't have to look at Rikishi's ass as he stood on the apron.

[Downhome 0]

Well that came out of nowhere.

[Use Your Illusion 0]

Wow...4 pages.

 

WMXX is so tanking.

 

UYI

Their best match:

 

No Worm OR Stinkface!

[Downhome 0]

In all seriousness, why in the world wasn't the Eddie match last instead of that very crappy tag match!?

 

Even I (for real) have a problem with that.

Well, you have a point.

By "tank" do you mean sell out MSG and do a better buyrate than most other PPVs in this day and age?

*shrug* maybe it is a test to see how Eddie as champ actually draws ratings. Since the end of the show usually draws the highest ratings anyway.

 

Or maybe they know he draws, so they want to spread him out a bit to draw the most over the show.

 

Hell, I'm taking a stab in the dark here, at least.

Brock: "That Bill Goldberg thinks he's so hot because he played in the NFL. I'LL SHOW HIM!"

You know, I've never even thought of that point before. I wouldn't be surprised at all if that's exactly what they are doing.

 

I was just going to chalk it up to them "fucking up".

[Downhome 0]

We sure are rocking in here this very last major show before WrestleMania f'n XX.

 

I'd like to see what a live SD thread would be like.

[ChrisMWaters 0]

Hey, I saw it live and I'm still posting.

 

Don't see why no one else is though.

[Guest JMA]

I'd like to see what a live SD thread would be like.

I'd really prefer a live Smackdown! Unpredictability is a big part of wrestling today.

Me too.

[Guest JMA]

Hm. I wonder who's making these promo videos for Taker if he's "dead."

That would be if Eddy was paired up with Stephanie and made to clean up dogshit.

Rob Zombie.

 

Oh, and Heyman's stuff is WAY too generic.

Bearer?

[Jobber of the Week 0]

Quick note...the title belt behind the "Off The Hook Pain" sign is me!

Did you BRING that with you to a WWE show?

Yes.

HA HA HA!!!

 

I bet you'd also wear the shirt for a band at THEIR OWN concert!....

 

don't be that guy...

This reminds me of the days leading to last year's Mania, as I saw a guy walking along with a WWF Championship over his shoulder thinking he was king shit of the universe.

 

My Mom looked at me and said, "You know, that's the kind of thing you take to a wrestling show, but not what you wear around outside the wrestling show."

SD threads always suck compared to Raw threads.

 

Everyone using satellite dishes nationwide gets the East Coast feed of Raw, while we're all stuck with our local UPN station to deliver it right on time at 8PM in our own time zone. This means that the only people posting to the O&O thread are the real east coasters.

Skullet-Man!

You know...if Lesnar was staying...for some odd reason...I'd LOVE to see Austin be Lesnar's manager.

[Guest Anglesault]

The Smackdown line on the aisle is a nice visual.

[Downhome 0]

Hey look, the LEADER of SD, the main guy here, the VISION of Smackdown!!!!!!!!

 

This is all just too funny and ironic.

You WOULD, Foley-lover.
