Hawk 34 0 Report post Posted June 24, 2008 It's a Random Thoughts thread, not a whole "OMG! BREAKING NEWZ! NEW SPINNER BELT WTF!" thread. Relax. No. I mean, people have always been split down the middle about this particular topic and it never goes anywhere. If this report is true and they do indeed turn the World Heavyweight Title into a spinner belt, it'll open that discussion up once again. Ultimately, if they turn the Big Gold Belt into a spinner version, then so be it. Would they revive the previous WWE Title design? Maybe but it doesn't change who the champions are and the direction of the company. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lil' Bitch 0 Report post Posted June 24, 2008 I heard HHH (and supposedly Orton as well once he got the belt) wanted to go back to the previous belt, but Vince wouldn't let him so if that's true, I'm glad it wasn't Hunter's decision to hold onto that shiny piece of crap.

sluggo 0 Report post Posted June 24, 2008 ha ha ha @ Triple H CM Punk went from #1 to a joke So what did he say? Triple H was talking about how Punk's hat was too big for his head and how he was wearing make up under it. oh yeah HBK showed up and spoke first then at the end of his promo he said it's a plane that leaves Houston to San Antonio every 30 minutes and he was on the way to get on one of those planes so he didn't even stay. Maybe Jericho has a point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Scroby 0 Report post Posted June 24, 2008 Does anyone know anything about Ted Dibase's new book? I didn't even know there was one coming out until last night. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DrVenkman PhD 0 Report post Posted June 24, 2008 http://prowrestling.about.com/od/reviews/g...aseautobiog.htm It sounds like it's a released by WWE redo of a book that already came out in 2001 or so but I didn't know about that book either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
King Kamala 0 Report post Posted June 24, 2008 His 2001 book is definitely not worth a purchase. Heck, it's barely worth checking out from the library. He glosses over most of his wrestling career and spends the last third of the book talking about how he find Jesus without going into specifics about the problems that led him to hitting rock bottom. If you're going to make a confession, we need details dammit! The only interesting parts of the book is when he's talking about growing up as a wrestler's kid. One of the most disappointing wrestling autobiographies I've ever read. It's too bad his second one also apparently sucks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hawk 34 0 Report post Posted June 25, 2008 It pretty much just hit me that Jericho will probably end up facing CM Punk at NOC. What's your basis of that? Other then that Jericho has a title and has no defense in line. You think he'll do a Highlight Reel segment and Punk crashes and challenges in an attempt to stand up for the injured HBK? They could do that with Mysterio (if he's cleared and it's not like that ever stops Rey from getting back in the ring). I don't think Jericho does a match at all on NOC. Maybe a brawl segment with Shawn but not an actual match. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe a brawl segment with Shawn but not an actual match. Jericho comes out..starts cutting a promo about HBK. Says its too bad Shawn can't compete tonight. Out pops Shawn with an eye patch and he says that Jericho isn't going to sneak out of defending the title that easily, hes found a suitable opponent for Jericho tonight..and its CM Punk. They had an ok match 2 months ago in the KOTR qualifying which Punk won. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RonL21 0 Report post Posted June 25, 2008 In a truly random thought: Even though It's in the lower end of the middle pack as far as the greatness of WrestleManias go, WrestleMania 21 probably has the best highlight video of any PPV the WWF/E has ever done. Like if you only saw the highlights, you'd be like "Damn! I have to see this show!" The Music and everything just fit it so well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And can't he only fight in his home state or something, or has that court order past? Shawn was thrown threw a glass TV monitor. The similarities to The Barber Shop incident were obvious to long time fans but this week on Raw they went a step further to educate new fans by having Jericho outright say it was kind of like what Shawn did to Marty, then showed clips of people Shawn turned on (Marty, Diesel, Hogan). Not so much a build, but a lot of referencing Marty who could possibly fight for Shawn. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah I understood and saw that, but I don't get how showing Michaels turning on Jannety and leaving wounded would mean Jannety would want to fight for Shawn against Jericho. Have they reconciled in the past that I might have missed? I mean it would be nice, but I can't make sense of it in my mind at the moment. Feel like I've been left out of the loop on something haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
