Scroby Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 Scroby, I agree, that WAS Cena's MO up 'til '06. Vs. Masters and Vs. RVD, Cena dominated most of the bout. Vs. Edge and HHH, he got in a decent amount of offense. Vs. HHH, it was closer than I expected. Here we go. I have noticed his matches have gotten better where he's either control in most the time or half the time for the most part of 06 but he still has the matches where someone else is in control for the match then all of a sudden he has them set up for a FU, hits it, then wins it.
ChrisMWaters Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 Trish jobbed clean without an injury! ...so Melina finally putting her proverbial hat into the Women's division?
Hawk 34 Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 Melina/Nitro is like a low, low rate Edge/Lita.
Open the Muggy Gate Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 And we finally start the Trish vs. Melina feud.... and the IC champ is in the background. Figures.
Alro Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 Man, Trish got squashed. If they go with Trish/Melina, who's left for Mickie?
ChrisMWaters Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 Man, Trish got squashed. If they go with Trish/Melina, who's left for Mickie? Lillian Garcia? Moolah?
Conspiracy_Victim Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 Carlito/Trish vs. Nitro/Melina in a mixed tag match? Thats a matchup I never thought I'd see.
JustJoe2k5 Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 Melina = million dollar body with a ten cent face.
Hawk 34 Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 Jeez, Nitro is literally copying everything from Edge. He just needs to start banging Mickie James.
benn Posted June 27, 2006 Author Report Posted June 27, 2006 Has anyone else noticed that, despite still having really corny, unoriginal "disses" and mic skills, John Cena has become a consistent main eventer, being game for really good matches and looking like a credible champion? It is because of this that I hope John Cena kicks the shit out of Van Dam tonight and wins back the title. I'm a Cena workrate mark. No one expected HHH/Cena to be good at Mania, yet Cena not only delivered a good match (which HHH shined in), he had his finish put over, and really got "made" into a top player. At Backlash, the 3 wrestlers had an awesome bout, and despite "Cena is definately losing", he won again, cleanly. On Raw, Cena squashed the shit out of Masters, someone it took him 12-15 minutes to beat last Fall. At One Night Stand, Cena did the best with who he had to work with, and delivered a memorable PPV appearence to a shitty crowd and opponent. Haven't seen Vengeance. But in kayfabe mode...he made fucking SABU **submit**. ________ Cena's been rock solid in the ring, IMO, ever since his program with Edge the day after New Year's Revolution. I don't know about that, normally when I watch a Cena match, Cena is normally getting beaten on in the ring then all of a sudden he has someone set up for the FU. I have noticed this ever since his match at Wrestlemania 21 against JBL. Doesn't happen all the time but a good amount of time. I notice that as well a lot of the time. I prefer watching Randy Orton, I just wish the dude would cut back on the fucking chinlocks.
JustJoe2k5 Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 What can you say? North Carolina loves Carlito.
Open the Muggy Gate Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 Maybe it's just me... but with all the people on RAW, it feels weird to say Intercontinental Champion, Johnny Nitro. Then again, WWE champion RVD is odd to say still too.
JustJoe2k5 Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 Jeez, Nitro is literally copying everything from Edge. He just needs to start banging Mickie James. I was thinking more along the lines of Trent Acid, right down to the way he wears the title belt.
UseTheSledgehammerUh Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 When referencing Cena "squashing" Masters and making Sabu submit, I meant that it had added to the credibility of both his finish and his status as Raw's top "unbeatable" star. It's always better to not have "Can Cena Retain?!?!?!" everyweek from JR, and instead have "He has to go THROUGH John Cena" when billing your top dog.
UseTheSledgehammerUh Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 Nice opener. Melina's dress left something to be desired.
Downhome Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 Man, Trish got squashed. If they go with Trish/Melina, who's left for Mickie? Lillian Garcia? Moolah? Harvey Wippleman
Hawk 34 Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 Carlito/Trish would be a nice Trish/Jericho type relationship.
Conspiracy_Victim Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 Yeah, Carlito as a face is growing on me. Slowly. Like a fungus of some kind.
Downhome Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 Toss in Maria because she's jealous of Trish being with Carlito, and I'm all for this.
iggymcfly Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 I don't get what the point was of having Trish jobbed out so easily like that. It hurts her because it makes it look like she can't hold her own in the ring anymore, and at the same time, it hurts Mickie James, because right after she showed domination, she instantly became an afterthought to Trish/Melina.
skullman80 Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 Carlito as a face is growing on me as well. I think the fans are behind him for the most part as well.
UseTheSledgehammerUh Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 Wow, didn't see Raw last week, that ALL happened?
UseTheSledgehammerUh Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 Shit, the Frat Boys are ENRAGED!
Hawk 34 Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 I don't get what the point was of having Trish jobbed out so easily like that. It hurts her because it makes it look like she can't hold her own in the ring anymore, and at the same time, it hurts Mickie James, because right after she showed domination, she instantly became an afterthought to Trish/Melina. They were pushing that Trish was still recovering from her shoulder injury, so it's logical that she'd have ring rust. I said eariler this year that Carlito could easily be the top babyface for WWE. He is being wasted on Raw. He'd be a defacto #2 babyface there.
The Amazing Rando Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 Yes, because if five twenty year olds can't beat them, Vince and Shane CAN!
MixxMaster Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 Carlito as a face is growing on me as well. I think the fans are behind him for the most part as well. who wouldn't rather see Carlito than Cena as the top face? Hell, who wouldn't rather see ANYONE(besides Orton) than Cena as the top face?
Open the Muggy Gate Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 And that already fills the quota for male ass tonight.

The people coming to the shows because Cena is the top draw? They might not perfer someone else.
