LivingLegendGaryColeman 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2005 Uh, Edge got hit by Batista's spinebuster. I call that a overbooked finish to keep Edge strong. I agree. Edge looked great out there, and it sent the message Triple H couldn't beat him on his own. Right, when I read the spoilers, I didn't like that Batista spinebusted him to win, but I enjoyed the product when I saw it. Batista attacks Edge because Edge "attacked" him, and then Batista can't take his eyes off the belt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
clean rob 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2005 I really don't get why so many people on the board are claiming that Edge's bitter "I keep getting screwed over" gimmick has been killed after the match on Raw. Not only did Batista interfere (heavily), but Edge also had HHH pinned for a 3 count while the ref was out. There's plenty for him to bitch about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JN News 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2005 If HHH really is Edge's "friend", then he'll convince the writers to find something for Edge to do that can help his career. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Tjhe CyNick Report post Posted February 10, 2005 I think a big part of his gimmick was that he never got a one on one title shot. There is a fine line between that type of gimmick and a gimmick like every other mid card heel where they just constantly bitch about losing. I dont think the latter can draw money, whereas I think the former can potentially draw some money. My guess is that they'll do Edge vs Orton. Both guys have been left out int he cold as far as programs go, they can play off that Edge whines about losing title matches, whereas Randy, like every top babyface, just gets his kicked and doesn't say anything about it. They have a history, and they could have a good match. I'd still like to see them do Taker-Orton, to give Orton a big win, but then that would jeopardize the Heidenreich/Snitsky vs BOD classic.

Promoter 0 Report post Posted February 10, 2005 I guess they finally did the match that was supposedly the main reason to get Edge from Smackdown Now that was worth hurting Smackdown wasn't it? We got JBL WWE Champion out of it. I also think they should do Orton-Taker at Mania for all the reasons to get Orton's summer heat back. His dad will be at Mania as well getting inducted. I don't think I have to state how they can craft a killer storyline for both men here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kahran Ramsus 0 Report post Posted February 10, 2005 Edge's gimmick is like Bret Hart's in early 1997, basically that he keeps getting screwed over when he normally would have won the title. He is supposed to get whiny bitch heat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CBright7831 0 Report post Posted February 10, 2005 Actually, the Kane Vs. Kurt Angle match was over Kane costing Kurt Angle a shot at the WWF Title. No, you see what happened was Angle was pissed because Triple H beat him for the No. 1 contender spot for WM. Angle came out on Smackdown! and said he wasn't leaving the ring until someone came out to get their ass kicked. Kane came out, and Angle dominated and slaughtered him. He german suplexed Kane through the announce table and put him in the anglelock, and security broke them up finally. It was fun watching Kane get dominated by someone other than Austin or Taker.
