RedJed 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2008 Edge versus Batista AGAIN? I'll fucking pass. On top of it, we get a wedding between Vicki and Edge for the Great American Bash ppv. Can't they find better shit to do with Edge than another program with Batista and then a stupid wedding angle for the ppv after next? And Smackdown is now going to have a "Divas" title? Give me a break. Cousin Sal v. Santino sounds just about how I expected. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hawk 34 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2008 That'll end talks of elevated talent. Cycle through Batista and Mysterio until Taker's annual absence ends. I'm hoping the Golden Diva thing ends up being a novelty trophy for Natayla rather then another woman's title. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bob_barron 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2008 Why didn't Vickie make his partners La Familia, and just give Edge some token teammates? Come on Vickie, you're better than that! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted June 4, 2008 I don't mind Edge vs. Batista, but this company is really headed in the wrong direction. I can't help but laugh at adding another women's title. And a wedding on PPV. Goddamn. The wedding could be vehicle to bring Taker back, but still. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hawk 34 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2008 It also means a whole month of build for a wedding. Which means you can expect many horrible skits with The Rmy and Edge trying on tuxs, Chavo writing the toast and Vicki on her bachlorette party that'll end with the oily naked guy dancing.

TheFranchise 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2008 Well, it seems like a Smackdown challenger would compete against Beth so perhaps she was saying her number one contender would win for SD. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheFranchise 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2008 Yes she is, I was just thinking of the Beth Phoenix match being on PPV.. how often do you have a women's match on a ppv that doesn't involve the title? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sluggo 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2008 it's been quite a few weddings on WWE tv the past few years Kane/Lita Edge/Lita Billy/Chuck Teddy/Kristal I'm sure i'm forgetting one Anyway, it's losing it's value as an angle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PILLS! PILLS! PILLS! 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2008 I don't want to watch any of those things. When is Michael Hayes coming back? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thanks for the Fish 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2008 I like the idea of a SD! Diva's title. The WWE seems to be pushing the ladies again, very likely due to the ratings success of the TNA women. I mean Beth vs Melina @ ONS as was mentioned didn't even involve the title - when was the last time that happpened at a PPV? The rest of the show sounds like it sucks though.

Bigelow34 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2008 Yes she is, I was just thinking of the Beth Phoenix match being on PPV.. how often do you have a women's match on a ppv that doesn't involve the title? They did it at One Night Stand, so perhpas they are going to start doing it more as the women's division depth has increased a bit? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Old School 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2008 I'm still not seeing all this talk about a new WWE Womens title being introduced. I guess we'll have to wait and watch to find out but it just sounds like to me, froim reading, that the winner will challenge for the belt, not that Vickie is making a new one. Also, unless Beth wins the belt back on a random TV show, I'm assuming Night of Champions will be a match involving the Champion, Mickie James. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spaceman Spiff 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2008 I don't want to watch any of those things. When is Michael Hayes coming back? Palumbo/Finlay should be good. I'll agree the rest seems pretty ho-hum. I'd rather Noble/MVP was on TV and not a dark match, as those 2 had a pretty fun match last week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Silence 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2008 MVP is shown sitting by himself. * Maria interviews Batista backstage. * Hawkins, Ryder, Edge, and Chavo are all in the ring for the 8-man tag match. Out comes Batista followed by his partners Nunzio, Funaki, and Colin Delaney. What's the point of just having MVP on Smackdown in some random segment without a match on TV? Maria is now on Smackdown? What a random trade. Batista's partners are jobbers? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
