razazteca 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2004 I gotta agree CC, if this leads to a Flair/Hurricane fued, I'm all for it. I just don't see that happening... But while I am a total Hurricane mark, I wouldn't mind seeing a change of pace. Get the Vertebreaker over like the Tombstone. The tombstone for Cruisers! If only Raw had a CW devision Beniot is a cruiser Jericho is a cruiser Hurricane is a cruiser Matt Hardy is a cruiser Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest wildpegasus Report post Posted July 13, 2004 Have Benoit and Dinsmore ever fought in OVW before? Yes, back in 2000 on the Christmas Chaos show. I haven't seen it but have only heard positive things about the match. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slimm44 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2004 Not too bad of a show tonight. The first match and the main event were the only things that interested me. Hurricane's promo on Flair's book was pretty cool, looked a little too much like he was trying to impersonate The Rock though. I don't understand why they have Edge stand uop against Evolution, then he's nowhere to be found when they attack Eugene, Benoit and Regal. Plus he cheated to win his match. Put him back with Christian and rebuild the tag team division on RAW. I guess they are desperate for advertising too, Harold and Kumar looks hilarious but I would never have thought they would be advertiseded by WWE. That's enough ragging on WWE television for tonight.

iggymcfly 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2004 Well, on paper Raw looked like a good show, and Lita's promo SHOCKED me. (Why didn't they give her acting lessons three years ago.) However, I still couldn't get very into Raw tonight. I think it's because I saw Spiderman 2 today, and that did everything the WWE would like to do so much better than WWE can actually do it that the show just couldn't hold my interest. I mean how are you gonna get excited about a stiff clothesline, when we all know very well that you can just fall off a building and be fine. Spiderman spoiled wrestling for me until at least the JBL/Eddie cage match, and maybe even longer. Of course, it wouldn't really take much to spoil three segments of wanna-be porn stars licking their noses, and talking about having dogs, and whatever the second one did (changed the channel.) Raw Diva Search was the worst idea ever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CanadianChick 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2004 I don't think this Diva search was a good idea at all. It's pretty expensive, the live crowd, it seems, are dead for it, it loses ratings, according to breakdowns....where's the upside? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Salacious Crumb Report post Posted July 13, 2004 Why does Raw even need a lot of the guys they have? I mean outside of Evolution and Kane no heel gets much of anything on the show. Would it really kill Raw if Hurricane, A-Train, Stevie Richards, Rodney Mack and even Chris Jericho went to Smackdown? There are tons of guys just sitting on Raw doing jack squat when they could actually be put to some use on Smackdown. The Diva thing is only going to get worse. I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't taking up a 1/4 of Raw's airtime by the end. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's pretty expensive, the live crowd, it seems, are dead for it, it loses ratings, according to breakdowns....where's the upside? Ask Matt Hardy. He's in the business, not us. We're missing something. AWK! *whistle.* Actually, Raw needs a good-looking woman with nice breasts who can't wrestle. Trish, Victoria, Molly, Jackie, etc are all out for various reasons. Stacy's boobies are itty bitty. Nidia ain't all that good looking. So as you see, there's an obvious gap that needs filling. Of course, they're not doing anything with Dawn, but...AWK! Diva Search=Brawl for All 2004. If they had them legit fight each other for the quarter mil, people would actually want to see it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanadianChick 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2004 Shut up with the Hardy comments. It's getting annoying now. And a diva with boobs that can't wrestle? Lita maybe? After all, she can't wrestle because she's "pregnant". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scroby 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2004 I found the show to be very regular. Nothing special happen, except for Lita's promo. I didn't like the finish off the main event, actually the finish was expected but the one guy who didn't run in didn't make sense and thats Edge. Why the hell didn't he try to run in and save Beniot and Eugene? He's got good enough reasons.. 1. He's taking out Evolution, or trying to. and 2. He's friends with both Beniot and Eugene. So why not Edge try and run himself out there to help out? My only guess is that WWE wants to try and make him a one man army and if he had ran out there to try and save Eugene or Beniot, Evolution would have beat the crap outta him. I don't know through thats my guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fro 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2004 Heh...that exchange between the two with Eugene using Benoit's moves rocked. Dinsmore used the german suplex and the crossface as his finishers in OVW, so that's why they looked particularly swank. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest TheZsaszHorsemen Report post Posted July 13, 2004 So I figure you've got three options: Sign people only Kane's size so you have equal (but awful) matches Book the matches to be competive, size nonwithstanding. Kick a man in his head, his knees, drop him with a move, and size isn't that important. (This is obviously my choice) Just give Bautista a massive record, and hurricane loses. And no one will ever be surprised (boo! hiss!) Yeah because every big man is awful... I think Vader wants to have a few words with you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
