The Amazing Rando Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 I'm not sure how easy it is to buy guys who were just on the other show a couple of months ago being this brand-loyal. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Big Show?
LaParkaYourCar Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 I don't think it's been terrible, but the matches have all been odd choices except Angle/Shelton and Mickie/Candice. Flair/Murdoch? HHH/Venis? HBK/JBL??
Downhome Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 I don't think WWE can have two consecutive pay-per-views where non-wrestlers don't wrestle. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> They have to do something with Carlito regardless. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> There have been a lot of great lines tonight. This, the ring having an accent, etc...
Guest panthermatt7 Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 I'm not sure how easy it is to buy guys who were just on the other show a couple of months ago being this brand-loyal. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I was just thinking that when I saw the graphic for the match at Survivor Series... in my mind I thought, "why should Carlito care?" And really its much the same for Big Show, Orton and Batista...
Guest JMA Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 Man, both brands have a disturbing lack of babyface main eventers right now. Something needs to be done about that soon.
EricMM Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 There has definitely been too much trading for this storyline.
HollywoodSpikeJenkins Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 A torture rack? And we missed it! Damn!

And they are so egocentric they'll do anything to look good, even if it means beating up your old boss.
HollywoodSpikeJenkins Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 Rey taking cheap shots at HBK is funny.

2GOLD Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 Orton holds for REY to get shots in? REY?? What? They couldn't find a 9 yr old boy in the front row who wanted a shot at him?
Guest Quik Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 So, I couldn't help but notice that Mickey James wasn't wearing a thong tonight. This disappoints me, since that was one of the few things I liked about Raw lately.

Giving Orton an off day?

slimm44 Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 Are they still going to have Batista/Orton for the title on SD, or did they toss that out of the window after what we saw tonight? They are making it sound like Batista wont even be on SD at all. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Nothing was announced, guess they're waiting to say something on Smackdown. but something tells me Batista isnt done for the night

Exslade ZX Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 I always find it funny when guys get into their ring gear to do stuff like be a lumberjack. And sometimes just to interfere in a match or something
Guest JMA Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 I miss the old days when a promotion could eviscerate their stale main event and bring in new guys from other promotions. I'm a little tired of seeing guys from the "New Generation" and "Attitude" eras, respectively.
Epic Reine Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 How exactly did the Smackdown guys get their trunks on? Did they change in the freezing cold parking lot?
Downhome Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 That was a fucked up inverted atomic drop HBK gave to JBL.

And sometimes just to interfere in a match or something <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It's probably easier to move around dressed in their ring attire. Just ask AJ Styles.
Guest *KNK* Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 I'm liking the subtle stuff between Rey and Orton @ ringside.
2GOLD Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 How exactly did the Smackdown guys get their trunks on? Did they change in the freezing cold parking lot? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> They beat up the soft pretzel guys and snuck in the building wearing their clothing. Then changed in the ladies room.
Guest *KNK* Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 TBS implementing the spear into his moveset is a plus.
Downhome Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 The ending with HBK ducking the CFH and then hittin SCM seemed like an ending to a big time match. I don't know why, but it felt like that to me. I loved it.
