Timmy8271 0 Report post Posted February 21, 2007 If I remember right, Bernard has gotten rid of the hair, and has some new tattoos that increase his intimidation factor. Couple that with his yelling/screaming everytime he hits a big move, and he's a perfect old school killer gaijin in Japan. The fans respect him, and he's probably sitting pretty for the rest of his career over there. if NJPW were to ever let him go, AJPW and possibly NOAH would snap him up just for his name value. He started in All Japan. Then he left for the big money in New Japan. Bernard rules it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
King Cucaracha 0 Report post Posted February 21, 2007 Really odd, whom they are putting in the MITB. Aside from Edge whom has years worth of ladder matches including 3 @ WM itself, the rest aren't known for ladder matches or any stunt fest matches. While Punk isn't a stranger to crazy brawls (Anyone that has a brawl on stage at a strip club or in a blizzard knows how to work crazy matches) but he's built as the MMA machine. Orton and Booker aren't big ladder guys either. Granted, last year had Finlay whom isn't a big stunt match worker so it's not that odd but they'll need to throw in at least two guys who can take the big bump. I still say they should move MVP into the MitB and shift Kennedy against Benoit instead. It gives a better match and MVP can bump. It looks as if they'll do some tag match with MnM and Hardys instead, leaving the big bumpers out. I don't see any of the cruiserweights getting involved with the exception of Mysterio whom is a big enough name. Just curious who'll play the high spot machine for this match. Punk. He learnt his trade in IWA MidSouth, which back then was virtually garbage match/deathmatch all through the card. Him and Hero et all. changed all that, but he worked his fair share of gimmick matches. Noteably, the Ladder Match with Chris Hero in about 2002/3, so he's not new to Ladders. Plus, he took as many bumps in the Elimination Chamber as RVD did at D2D, so the style he works currently shouldn't be a problem when it comes to him carrying the 'bumpload', so to speak.

Celtic Guardian 0 Report post Posted February 21, 2007 ECW World Heavyweight Championship = WWE Intercontinental Championship. Oy. Maybe not. The storyline could be read as Trump "trumping" McMahon (pun intended) by choosing a full brand champion instead of a now-secondary one. I doubt either title will be at stake in this anyway.

haVoc 0 Report post Posted February 21, 2007 This is really stupid, but it's kind of funny who's losing. From WWE.com Which WWE Superstar would win in a drag race on Speed TV? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- John Cena 24.78 % Jeff Hardy 24.78 % Jimmy Wang Yang 29.80 % Hardcore Holly 4.59 % Maria 16.02 % Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dobbs 3K 0 Report post Posted February 21, 2007 Hardy wouldn't be able to find his car, Maria would be too stupid to turn on the ignition, Holly would be disqualified for beating up an official before the start of the race. That would leave it down to Cena and Yang. Cena would do well, but I'd always take a redneck in any type of auto race. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hawk 34 0 Report post Posted February 21, 2007 Never doubt a redneck with a fast vehicle. It is simply money in the bank. If Cena was from California, he'd have a shot at being Yang but he's a yuppie from Mass, so no go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hunter's Torn Quad 0 Report post Posted February 21, 2007 --This will probably change several times over the next six days because of the gigantic political implications of this decision, but Mistico, against the wishes of CMLL, is scheduled to appear on Tuesday night in San Jose at the WWE tapings. (thanks to Steve "Dr. Lucha" Sims) Meltzer. It'll be interesting to see what goes down in the next six days, and what happens to Mistico in WWE, if he ends up going.

UseTheSledgehammerUh 0 Report post Posted February 22, 2007 I never liked him having a middle name and I like the current name, although Lawler said "Alejando" a few weeks ago. BTW, CMWaters, you need to update your ROH Champ picture from Homicide to that fat Japanese girl who won the title. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Atticus Chaos 0 Report post Posted February 22, 2007 a funny note from the f4w newsletter Someone said they went to the restaurant after the PPV and Vince and Shane were eating there. So Big Dave shows up in a t-shirt and shorts, in clear defiance of the dress code, and when he sees that they’re eating there he gave the waitress $40 to sit him somewhere where they wouldn’t see him. The idea of Dave Batista trying to duck under a table to hide is a very funny image. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
