Would love to have a tape of all those shootings...

I used to watch WWF and sometimes WCW long long time ago and was pretty amazed how well known wrestlers handled some rookies... my god, some were really thrown around like dolls and you could notice that noone cared about them especially not the monster they were wrestling.

I remember how Razor Ramon once made his Razors Edge with some smaller guy... it was pretty obvious that Ramon was a little pissed off and he rammed that guy into the floor with all his strengt, so that the guy landed directly on his head and neck in right angle, he bounced of the ground like a ****ing doll and made a roll in the air before landing on his back again!!!!!!!!!!!

I though that he must have snapped his back and is dead, the ref ran to him and other people around the ring ran to the ring too, fight was over and they have called medics to get that poor guy to the hospital. Camera was close, but you couldnt see ****....

^^^ I wouldn't doubt that Razor Ramon (Scott Hall) did that because he does have a bit of a temper problem. I met him about 6 months ago at a Rising High Wrestling show in Chicago and he seemed to not get along with the indy wrestlers very well. He inflicted alot of pain on the guy that he wrestled that night too. The promoter doesn't care to bring him back in ever again.

OK. I've got a few Royal Rumble predictions:

1.The winner will either be John Cena, or Shelton Benjamin(reason: Shelton Benjamin has beaten HHH 3 times, but has never faced him for the World Heavyweight Title, and John Cena has yet to get a shot at the WWE Title).
2. HHH will win his match against Randy Orton.
3. Kurt Angle will win the WWE Title.
4. Ric Flair, and HHH are somehow going to screw Batista(possibly get him eliminated from the Royal Rumble match).

ZombieMan
01-26-2005, 05:19 PM
I think that John Cena will win the Rumble, or I'm hoping anyhow. I'd love to see him go for the big title! Yes, I also think that Triple H will beat Orton for the WWE title.

WWE SMACKDOWN WILL NOT BE RENEWED ON UPN WHEN WWE'S CURRENT CONTRACT EXPIRES
By: Joey Styles
1/26/2005 5:38:14 PM

From insidebayarea.com:

There's only one year left on the contract for World Wrestling Entertainment's "Smackdown!" and the network has decided to let it go.

"It still makes us a decent amount of money," says Leslie Moonves, co-president and co-chief operating office for Viacom, which owns both CBS and UPN. "When you think about the powerhouses of CBS and NBC on Thursday night, it's great counter-programming. (But) it doesn't fit into the overall (programming) strategy."

HHH kills Raw for me, so I dont watch it.

The amount of time the women get on both shows pisses me off too. Pillow fighting, bra and panties, spanking, screw that and give me a match between Mysterio and Chavo, or Ultimo and Hurricane.

Give the smaller guys the air time to show you what wrestling is all about.

I hate HATE seeing the big slow talentless guy in the ring hurting other wrestlers and stinking up the ring.

JBL as a champ is a sick joke and ratings show that it has to change. UT? Please.

Heidencrap? Where is my remote? There is a lot of talent in Smackdown but instead we see Orlando, Jindrak, and the worst wrestler I've seen in the ring in years. Funaki with a belt? Where is my puke bucket? Any ideas who the tag teams are?

But wait!

There is going to be another womens match !


Fire the writers, give Paul Heyman his Smackdown back and let the stars shine.

Yeah, I hate the amount of time that the women get on TV too. Its just eye-candy is all, nobody cares about them wrestling much. Everytime I invite people over for a pay-per-view and the women's match comes on, we all just cringe at first and then talk through the boring match. The cruiserweights do need to be shown more on TV, and don't forget about Shannon Moore. I also get tired of seeing all of those talentless big monsters in the ring constantly. There are a few who can actually wrestle, but most of the time they can't. JBL is a big joke, and I wish that the WWE would bring him back as the old "Alcolyte" Bradshaw, he was a bad ass then and it was a better gimmick. It wasn't boring at least to me. As for The Undertaker, he's not too bad, but someone else deserves a chance. Heidenreich does suck, I agree with that. Funaki has my attention, I think that he is a pretty decent wrestler. I'd like to go up against him in the ring. They need to get rid of the boring Bashams too, they are just freakin' horrible. They have no charisma and never will, the fans can't get into them at all.

Shock! I like JBL. He has great charisma and cuts some killer promos and come on he ain't the worst wrestler in the world. I think his whole gimmick is so funny and great to dislike. Bashems as "Secretarys of Defence" is quite clever. I have yet to see Heindenrich wrestle so I can't really judge but I've seen his promos and when he isn't doing poems he isn't terrible. Funaki is a legend! I was so ****ing delighted to see him as cruiserweight champ, the guy is great. Smackdown I always thought was the better brand as the matches were usually better and the cruiserweights are always impressive.

Ok.

Funaki is a bad wrestler, I will agree to that, but there are more worthwhile people to hold the belt.

The cruiserweights should be more of a focus.

Kidman, London, Moore, Chavo, Funaki, Mysterio, Ultimo, and Little Guido.

They are thinking about bringing in psychosis (which is good). But they NEED:

I'm pissed that Viscera even got into it, he's not even under contract as far as I know.

Viscera was signed in November , he's been doing Heat against Val Venis almost every week since then.lol.

And Vince loves this guy , always has.
Remember he won the 1995 King Of The Ring.


As for the Rumble winner , It has to be Batista , the Build up with him and Trips for a Wrestlemania World Title match is a long time coming.
It's rare they finally decided to build something up these days , most matches now are set up sometimes a few days before a PPV , this match has meaning if it's for the title , either way Trips will face Batista at WM.

Can't see them going with Randy again , he just bombed out bad the last time he had the title.
I just don't think he has "it".

Puder may have a strong showing , each year they let someone have that option of going far but getting knocked out late , I think this year it's going to be Puder that gets that honor.

BTW why is Scotty in this ???????
Vis is bad but...

lol....TALK ABOUT A WASTED SPOT.

I would rather have seen Tajiri in it rather than Viscera. I didn't know if they ever officially signed big Vis or not since he isn't on the WWE website under current Raw superstars. What a waste of money he is. Hey, Snik I'm curious as to what you think about William Regal? I would absolutely love to see Shelton Benjamin lose his Intercontinental title and then have Regal feud with whomever wins it from Benjamin and eventually let Regal have the title. I think that Regal is one of the best wrestlers in the world today. He can pull off alot of different moves and even high flying ones if he has to. He is probably my favorite wrestler on Raw right now, I just wish that they would use him in the ring more often.

My Predictions

THE ROYAL RUMBLE MATCH

There's speculation to who the guest entrant could be and I would love to hear the glass break and see Stone Cold or Bret Hart waltz in there and own any and everybody. Realistically I think...er...know Batista is going to win and challenge Triple H at Mania screwing Randy Orton out of a title opportunity. And the guest entrant will be Brock Lesnar.

Winner and hopefully kicking the crap out of HHH at Mania only to lose it a month later at Backlash - Batista

WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP:
TRIPLE H VS. RANDY ORTON

I'd like to sit here and tell ya the big RKO is gonna pull this one out but unless WWE wants Orton to lose the belt again one month later before Mania HHH is going to walk away winning this. Yes, it's not fair because HHH isn't what he used to be and thinks it's all about him which it's not. However, ****ing the boss' daughter gets you a long way.

Winner and unfortunatley still Champion - Triple H

TRIPLE THREAT MATCH: WWE CHAMPION JBL VS. KURT ANGLE VS. THE BIG SHOW

It'll be nice to shout "YOU SUCK" again at Angle and Big Slow who knows is in this match other than to give it a "Good guy to root for". But I have a feeling JBL is going to lose to Kurt Angle. Granted I don't watch SmackDown! but if they have Angle win and set-up a title match with Cena vs. Angle at Mania, I may start watching. Again, I'm probably wrong but my pick is Angle.

Winner and New Champion - Kurt Angle

CASKET MATCH: UNDERTAKER VS. HEIDENREICH

First off, Heidenreich is a horrible character. That being said I have a feeling we'll see interference from Gene Snitsky to set-up Heidenreich/Snitsky vs. Undertaker/Kane at WrestleMania. I want to see Undertaker win this and bury Heidenreich for good but I have a feeling this Rumble is a set-up for Mania.

Winner and still stinking up the place - Heidenreich

SHAWN MICHAELS VS. EDGE

I'm not going to explain here why I have a strong distaste for one Shawn Michaels but it involves the screwjob of Bret Hart and Michaels blatantly lying about his knowledge of it. Here, I'm not picking who I think will win but who I want to win and that is the man who's deserved a push for longest. I of course mean Edge. He's one of the most gifted talents on RAW(Batista and Orton aside) and I feel this year he'll get his title. But here, I expect he'll stomp over HBK.

Winner and soon to be new RAW Champ - Edge

They never gave Orton a chance with the belt and I would much rather see Batista vs. Orton at Mania than HHH vs. Batista.

I think Regal is better as a Non Wrestler Altho I like his work but he's great on the mic and is awesome with the facial expressions.
He gets better exposure as a Personality than a wrestler , sadly.

remember when he was Commissioner , he was Awesome in that role.

Just have Lesnar be in the Rumble so Vince can hear his crowd reaction, then just let it build up AFTER Wrestlemania if they want him or not. Im curious to see if the fans will accept or boo the hell out of him IF he comes back for just that one night. Seeing Stone Cold or Lesnar in the ring once more will do :D

I was upset at how they had Cena and Batista both go over and then Vince came down, and injured his knee when he tried to get into the ring and just sat down against the ropes and looked like a total dumbass, lol. Then they restarted the match and none of the rest made sense, it was awful! Other than that, I was bored with the JBL, Angle, and Big Show match. I was also bored with the Triple H vs. Orton match. However, I was very impressed with Shawn Michaels vs. Edge, and also Heidenreich vs. The Undertaker. I enjoyed seeing The Undertaker do some classic wrestling moves, which totally caught me off guard! All in all, it wasn't too bad of a pay-per-view. The Rumble was exciting until the end and what happend to the "secret" contestant? LOL, oh and lots of shooting on the new guy Pruder. He got chop shots from hell, I felt bad for him, but I guess thats his initiation. But it kind of went overboard if you ask me. I've seen alot of initiations but nothing that went that far.

FULL RESULTS FROM PRO WRESTLING TORCH (http://www.pwtorch.com/artman/publish/article_11734.shtml)

WWE ROYAL RUMBLE PPV REPORT
JANUARY 30, 2005
FRESNO, CALIF.

HEAT- MAVEN DEFEATED RHYNO


1 -- SHAWN MICHAELS vs. EDGE


WINNER: Edge at 18:29.

STAR RATING: ***1/4 -- Good opening match. It didn't steal the show, but it wasn't designed to, either.

2 -- UNDERTAKER vs. HEIDENREICH

WINNER: Undertaker at 13:04.

STAR RATING: 1/4* -- Whatever value it had at certain points was ruined with some really sloppy spots, bad pacing, and really poorly executed moves.


3 -- JBL vs. BIG SHOW vs. KURT ANGLE -- WWE Hvt. Title match


WINNER: JBL at 11:59.

STAR RATING: *** -- Good match. They didn't go overly long with it, and therefore it didn't have any slow spots. The gimmick of JBL ending up retaining the title undeservedly continues, something Cole sold big time. Well-constructed and executed.


4 -- TRIPLE H vs. RANDY ORTON - World Hvt. Title match

They opened up with high-energy, going right at each other, with Hunter scoring a near fall early with a backslide. Orton came back with a backdrop and early RKO attempt. Hunter slipped out of it and bailed out to ringside. Orton followed and threw him back into the ring. Orton hit Hunter with a dropkick. The crowd seemed to be aganst Orton early as there were scattered boos for his covered and no cheers. At 2:00 Orton went for another RKO, but Hunter threw Orton over the top rope to the floor as a counter. Hunter took control, choking Orton. Hunter then clipped Orton's leg from behind at 4:45. At 7:00 Hunter applied a figure-four. At 9:00 Orton forced a reversal. Hunter grabbed the bottom rope to force a break. Orton and Hunter got into a slugfest at 11:00. Orton hit a neckbreaker for a two count. He scored two more two counts in the next minute. Hunter slowed Orton with a reverse atomic drop. Orton threw Hunter off the top rope and then nailed Hunter with a top rope crossbody for a near fall. To his credit, Ross screamed, "Will it be!" rather than the usual "He's got him! It's over!" Hunter caught Orton with a face-buster kneelift. He then set up a Pedigree, but Orton escaped and catapulted Hunter into the top turnbuckle. Hunter then blocked an RKO attempt then hit Orton with a Harley Race Knee and scored a two count. They went to a close-up of Orton's bleeding lower lip. Hunter set up another Pedigree, but Orton countered with a clothesline for a very near fall that the crowd was into. Orton punched and kicked away at Hunter. Hunter was out on his feet, leaning against Orton. Hunter held onto the ropes to avoid a DDT, and Orton went down on the mat without Hunter landing hard. At 18:00 the ref got crushed when Hunter charged into Orton in the corner. Hunter kicked Orton to ringside. Hunter grabbed his sledgehammer from ringside. He approached Orton slowly, giving Orton time to recover and yank Hunter face-first into the ringpost. Hunter clutched his nose. Back in the ring, as Orton reached for the sledge hammer, Hunter came out of nowhere with a vicious clothesline. Hunter then lifted the sledgehammer, but when he saw the ref coming to, Hunter threw the hammer to ringside and set up a Pedigree instead. He executed his finisher, then covered Orton for the win.

WINNER: Hunter at 21:27.

STAR RATING: ***1/2 -- Very good match, but it felt like it was in first and second gear a little too much without enough energetic kicks into high-gear. It felt like a match where the wrestlers knew they didn't have to carry the show, and thus they kept it a notch below the show-stealing level. It was a clean win considering Hunter didn't use the sledgehammer at any time.

-As Long and Bischoff chatted backstage, JBL and his crew walked into the room celebrating the title win, pouring champaigne all over. JBL was in Long's face, yelling, "Holla holla holla!" Long said he wanted to let JBL know what he had planned for the next World Title defense. JBL said he was still celebrating and had an escort service to call tonight. Funny. Long said he was giving the man he didn't pin tonight a title shot. He said, "I'm gonna eat Big Show like he's gonna eat a pizza. I'm a wrestling god!" Long said there would be no outside interference at No Way Out because for the first time in the history of WWE, the match would be a barbed wire steel cage match. JBL's drunken celebration turned into a wake. Great performance from JBL.

-Tazz and Cole stammered about Long's announcement. Cole then said Tazz would be representing Smackdown while Ross would take over his chair representing Raw. Cole had said publicly that he hoped he and Tazz would get to call the Rumble this year since Ross did last year.

-Backstage, Nunzio had a Royal Rumble entry number. Angle stole it from him, making him the mystery no. 30 entry. No Brock Lesnar or other surprise, in other words.

5 -- THE ROYAL RUMBLE

---(1) Eddie Guerrero vs. (2) Chris Benoit. The match began at 10:03, 23 minutes later than last year's start time. They did some mat work.

---(3) Daniel Puder walked out, grabbed the house mic, and told everyone they are going to witness history. He said he is going to win the Royal Rumble in his first match. He got in the ring and acted cocky. Paying dues time then began and Benoit and Guerrero took turns slapping away at his chest. He dropped down and they double-suplexed him. Tazz said Puder didn't help his cause by doing mic work before the match. Ross said there is a time to talk and a time to fight.

---(4) Hardcore Holly. Perfect. Dues paying time continues. Ross said, "He hates rookies." Holly asked Benoit and Guerrero to back down and let him get at Puder. The crowd began cheering and standing. Holly nailed Puder with three very hard chops. Puder sold it like he was shot. Benoit chopped him. Ross said Puder was getting initiated "in the stiffest and most intense of ways." Benoit held him as Holly chopped him again. Benoit threw another chop. Guerrero threw another chop. Puder dropped down and screamed in pain. Holly then held Puder throat first over the top rope and then kicked him between the legs. Holly then gave him an Alabama Slam and threw him over the top rope at 6:03. (***ELIMINATION #1***)

---(5) Hurricane. As Hurricane came out, Benoit and Guerrero eliminated Holly at 6:08 (***ELIMINATION #2***). His job was done. Benoit and Guerrero took Hurricane down with double-teaming, then Guerrero tried to sneak in an elimination on Benoit. Benoit fought back. Guerrero backdropped Hurricane at 7:25 (***ELIMINATION #3***)

---(6) Kenzo Suzuki. Benoit went to work on Kenzo, giving everyone a glimpse of what could have been had Kenzo gone to Raw as originally planned last summer and headlined PPVs and house shows against Benoit in World Title matches. Benoit almost snuck in an near elimination on Guerrero.

---(7) Edge ran to the ring. He went right after Guerrero with a spear in the corner. He then knocked Kenzo down and pounded away at Kenzo and Benoit. He went back to Guerrero and tried to toss him over the top rope. Guerrero hugged the bottom rope. Edge went back to Benoit. Benoit turned and began beating him up. Kenzo then hit Benoit from behind.

---(8) Rey Mysterio ran out and went right after Guerrero. Rey took Kenzo over the top rope with a headscissors at 11:28 (***ELIMINATION #4***). Guerrero gave Benoit a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker.

---(9) Shelton Benjamin ran to the ring and went right after Edge. As Guerrero attempted to eliminate Rey, Guerrero tried to eliminate Benoit. Meanwhile, Shelton tried to eliminate Edge. Rey nailed Benjamin from behind with a chop block. Rey took Benjamin down with a swinging head scissors.

---(10) Booker T came out next. Eric Bischoff came to ringside as everyone continued to fight. Long came out and stood on the other side of the ring.

---(11) Chris Jericho charged to the ring at full speed. Ross said he knows what it's like to headline WrestleMania.

---(12) Luther Reigns walked out next. Ross said if he won, it would "shock the world." He said his street background might help him in this type of match. The Raw and Smackdown wrestlers took sides, squaring off four-on-four with Benoit & Edge & Jericho & Benjamin vs. Rey & Booker & Reigns & Guerrero.

---(13) Mohammad Hassan (w/Khosrow Daivari) walked out. As he slowly walked to the ring, the crowd chanted "USA, USA." He bowed in the ring and prayed toward the sky. Everyone surrounded him. Jericho took the first shot. Then the other seven wrestlers joined in, stomping away at him. Rey gave him a 619 as set up by Jericho. Then threw him out at 20:10 (***ELIMINATION #5***)

---(14) Orlando Jordan walked out with a big smile on his face. More random fighting with the nine left in the ring.

---(15) Scotty 2 Hotty came out, and Hassan and Daivari attacked him in the aisle. Are they turning babyface or something? Hassan applied a Camel Clutch briefly before returning to the back.

---(16) Charlie Haas ran out and went right after Benoit and Jericho. Booker kicked him to the mat, then kicked Jordan. Reigns jumped in, but Booker kicked him too. Booker clotheslined Reigns out of the ring at 24:20 (***ELIMINATION #6***) and Jordan (***ELIMINATION #7***). Booker then did the Spinarooni to celebrate, but that left him open to being dropkicked by Rey into the ropes and Guerrero lowered the top rope, so Booker fell to the floor (***ELIMINATION #8***).

---(17) Rene Dupree. Benjamin and Haas double-teamed Dupree, reuniting their team briefly. Shelton jumped to the top rope to set up a cross bodyblock, but Edge shoved him off the rope to the floor at 27:04 (***ELIMINATION #9***)

---(18) Simon Dean walked out, but stopped at ringside and began warm-up exercises. Ross called him an idiot because he had all afternoon and evening to warm up. Edge then eliminated Guerrero at 28:15 (***ELIMINATION #10).

---(19) Shawn Michaels ran out and eliminated Simon as soon as he finally entered the ring at 29:10 (***ELIMINATION #11***). Michaels backdropped Haas at 30:15 (***ELIMINATION #12***).

---(20) Kurt Angle came out and immediately began suplexing everyone - Bennoit, Rey, Jericho, Edge, and Dupree. When he attempted to suplex Michaels, Michaels blocked it. Angle went for an Anklelock, but Michaels escaped and superkicked Angle out of the ring at 31:15 (***ELIMINATION #13***).

---(21) Coach strutted out.

---(22) Mark Jindrak. Angle snuck back nto the ring and eliminated Michaels over the top rope. Angle then bashedm Michaels in the head with the ring stairs. Michaels bladed. Angle punched away at him, then applied an Anklelock. Officials ran out to peel Angle away from Michaels. Angle got in one last stomp.

---(23) Viscera.

---(24) Paul London. After Dupree beat on London, he did his dance. Jericho eliminated him. (***ELIMINATION #15***).

---(25) John Cena. He tore off his shift, but Viscera grabbed him and bashed him with forearms. Cena backdropped Viscera at 39:00 (***ELIMINATION #16***). Cena and Benoit squared off in the corner.

---(26) Gene Snitsky. Long punched at Snitsky, then jumped onto his back and applied a sleeper. Snitsky tossed him over the top rope, but London stayed on the apron and elbowed Snitsky's head. Snitsky gave him a clothesline. London took a flip face-first bump onto the floor to be eliminated at 40:20. Bump of the night. (***ELIMINATION #17***). Snitsky then gave Cena a big boot.

---(27) Kane came out and began chokeslamming everyone including Cena, Jericho, and even Mysterio. London was shown being helped onto a stretcher. Kane tossed Jindrak at 42:05 (***ELIMINATION #18***). Snitsky went after Kane, giving him a pump handle slam.

---(28) Batista came out to a hhuge pop. Batista quickly eliminated Snitsky at 43:10 (***ELIMINATION #20***). Batista and Kane then battled. The crowd chanted "Ba-ti-sta." Batista gave Kane his sitout powerbomb. Jericho dove inot Batista's arms. Batista lifted and dropped him over the top rope at 43:50 (***ELIMINATION #21***). Batista then went after Edge in the corner.

---(29) Christian (w/Tyson Tomko). Rey gave Kane a 619 and then Cena eliminated Kane at 45:13 (***ELIMINATION #22***). Cena and Rey had a discussion about working together. They went over to Coach and stomped at him in the corner.

---(30) Ric Flair walekd out in a gold robe. Ross mentioned that he won the Rumble in 1992 in sixty minutes. Batista gave Coach a spinebuster. Flair then tossed Coach (***ELIMINATION #23***) Batista then gave Christian a spinebuster. Batista tossed Christian over the top rope onto Tomko at ringside at 46:55 (***ELIMINATION #24***). That left Flair, Benoit, Batista, Edge, Mysterio, and Cena. Batista gave Benoit a spinebuster. Flair then tossed Benoit at 47:30 (***ELIMINATION #25***). Flair took a cheap shot at Batista, but then denied he intended to. Rey and Edge then dropkicked Batista. Flair went after Edge, but Edge speared Flair. Edge then tossed Flair at 48:00 (***ELIMINATION #26***). Final Four were Edge, Mysterio, Batista, and Cena. Edge speared Batista, then Cena. Rey then gave Edge a 619. Edge rossed Rey over the top rope, but Rey held onto the apron. Edge then speared Rey off the apron at 49:21 (***ELIMINATION #27***). Edge went after Cena and Batista, but got backdropped by both att 49:42 (***ELIMINATION #28***). That left Cena and Batista for a staredown. Ross said his pick was Batista. They exchanged punches in mid-ring. Cena went for a quick FU, but instead walked to the ropes. batista held onto the top rope and wouldn't go over. Batista fought out of Cena's grip and threw some knees, then set up a Batistabomb. Cena walked toward the top rope and both tumbled over the top rope and landed on the floor at the same time. Two referees from each brand declared their guy the winner. Two Raw referees held up Batista's arm. Two Smackdown refs held up Cena's arms.

Great review Snik.

It was the first time a WWE PPV has ever aired live in NZ and JR and Michael Cole even mentioned it. I was happy to hear that.

I'm glad Batista won. It was likely that he was the odds on favourite to win the Rumble. Watch out HHH.

So I wonder what's to become of Angle and HBK. Will they have a match at Wrestlemania as well. It could be possible unless of the superstars changes brands.

WM21 also seems likely to have a tag team match of Undertaker and Kane vs Heidenreich and Snitsky. It's gonna happen I'm certain of it.

I laughed when Flair failed to throw Batista out the ring. Check out his reaction. I was hoping Batista was gonna eliminate Flair himself.

Mohammad Hassan is annoying but Daivari is even worse. He's at the top of my most hated list at the moment. I'd mute it if only but can't while you still want to listen to the announcers play by play of the match.

Overall great PPV. The first of many live events to come.

also the match shouldn't have been over.....they're were two men who were not legally elimated

That happens a lot in Rumbles , Last year I believe Spike wasn't officially eliminated , and once it happened with Savage I believe when he was feuding with Crush.

And Austin Illegally eliminated Bret in 97 after he was tossed out yet it counted.

How about that clothesline on Paul London when he got eliminated by Snitsky. That looked cool despite London being escorted out of the arena on a stretcher.

I'm just watching the replay now. I'm happy that Batista is getting a decent push now. I've always found him to far meaner than Lesnar. Lesnar may have power but Batista to me looks far more intimidating.

Other highlights I can recall:

Eddie Guerrero stealing Ric Flair's number and his wallet when they picked their balls for the Rumble order.

Christian the CLB trying to outrap Cena. What did Cena call Tomko again? Anybody remember?

triple HHH winnning.. oh well, but i prefer him over randy.. Dont see as many good fudes with him.


The actual Rumble was fun.. The 6 people at our place watching were having a good time the entire match, and id rather see the end restart then a few weeks of BS stuff to cover for it.

I forgot about that clothesline that Snitsky delivered to Paul London but it was awsome! I don't think that London was really hurt though, they threw him on the stretcher pretty much, rather then easing him onto it. About John Cena calling Tomko names, the only one that I can remember was that he called him blackbeard.

Hey ZombieMan-Any "backstory" on what really happened on the Hogan/Jarrett/Russo/Booker T fiaso that happened in WCW during its final year?

I just remember hearing that Hogan won the title from Jarrett, then Russo came out and stripped the belt and scheduled a Jarrett/Booker T match that Booker T won.

It was the last time Hogan was seen on WCW and I had heard Russo did it to publically humiliate Hogan. And not in a "scripted" way.

Know anything on this one that you might've heard through the grapevine over the years?

If I remember correctly, Hogan insisted on winning the title again. So Russo let him win it, then berated him on national TV about it because Hogan was unwilling to help push younger wrestlers. Then he scheduled the Jarret/Booker T match for the heavy weight title which Booker T won.

I was just woindering if you had ever heard about what really was going on from maybe a co-worker or someone who used to be affiliated with WCW.

Batista won the Rumble that was really good, i saw him or Benoit or Jericho winning it.
Undertaker no doubt he was gonna win, even though when snitsky came out wow, i thought he was gonna loose and when they were gonna put him in the basket wow, i screamed at how mad i was, then when i saw Kane wow again lol. I think i never been happier when seeing him, Undertaker's toombstone was beautiful, I love the Undertaker.
HHH winning, no surprise, same thing happened last year with HBK in the Last Man Standing Match. They wont make HHH loose the title right before Wrestlemania.
Big Show got screwed again, man I hate JBL!!! he can die and i wont care, That was Big Shows night. And also Kurt Angle eliminating HBK, i see this a feud like last year. Between Goldberg and Brock Lesnar, jajaja man this is gonna be good.
When Rey got that far, i thought it was crazy i thought he was gonna win i dunno why.
Gald that ****in Puder was the first eliminated, show off big mouth.
Royal Rumble was great.
Batista wont go to Smackdown! would love to see him there but he will stay at RAW and beat up HHH, i just know. Undertaker will fight BIg Show at Wrestlemania for the WWE Championship, prediction.

Perpetually.

When I first checked out TNA a few years ago, Jarrett was Champion. I've been checking it out on and off for the last few months, and guess what...Jarrett's STILL champion.

Considering he worked in WCW during the downfall, you think he would've learned something.

Then again, I think he owns TNA so there you go.

Yeah, the Jarrett gimmick is tired. I might as well watch WWE as TNA is basically WWE light.

Jarrett champion = HHH champion.

Neither one is going to relinquish the belt for an extended period of time any time soon. And I doubt they could even go 2-3 pay-per-views without having to have the belt back.

TNA perked my interest until I noticed Jarrett never gives up the belt.

Why watch it.

UPN CANCELS ENTERPRISE; WILL SMACKDOWN BE NEXT?
By: 1Wrestling.com
2/3/2005 1:28:07 PM

UPN has announced the cancellation of one of their most popular shows. Star Trek: Enterprise will air it's last original episode on May 13, marking the end of an 18 year run for Star Trek programming on network and syndicated television.

The move to cancel a popular show such as Enterprise can't be encouraging news to WWE executives. UPN's Les Moonves threw Smackdown's future into uncertain status with comments two weeks ago indicating that he had concerns over whether the WWE program was a good fit for his network.

WWE is in the midst of contract renewal discussions with Spike TV and the future of RAW is also up in the air.


If I was Vince McMahon, I would be very concerned.

DangerMouse

Hogan vs. Goldberg

and

Mankind vs. The Rock (I think)

was the last time I can remember a new World/Heavyweight Championship belt changing hands on prime time, over the air, FREE Television.

They had a house show here last night it was a pretty good show and I have to say I would do Lillian garcia proper she was smoking hot. I forgot my camera I was gonna bring it but forgot it which I feel bad for because I could have had a few good pictures.


ok First Eric Bischoff comes out he got cheered until he got into the ring then he got booed. Our arena was built in early 1980 and the sound sucks for everything. they had 4 speakers above the ring and it was hard to hear even the music. Anyway the only thing I heard him say was while he was getting booed he said you will learn to love me.


Shelton Benjamin vs. Edge for the WWE Intercontinental Title

this was the first match it was pretty good nothing spectacular Edge did grab Benjamin by the back of the head and Benjamin popped back up it was pretty cool looking. Shelton Benjamin won with the T-bone suplex. Edge got booed after he got into the ring for some reason that happened for pretty much all the heel wrestlers except one.


Eddie Guerrero & Rey Mysterio vs. Basham Brothers

I believe this was the second match it was allright eddie and rey came out in a lowrider truck rey was in the back and eddie was doind the hydrolaucs while rey was in the back it was pretty funny. Eddie and Rey got a big pop during the whole match. The Bashams got an ok pop until they got into the ring then they got booed. Bashams retained their belts. After the match was over Rey did a double 619 and I think he hurt his knee he was limping while walking back. The double 619 was pretty cool looking. Eddie got on the mic after the match said some things and left

Trish Stratus vs. Victoria for the WWE Women's Title

I think it was the third match it could have been the second. Victoria comes out and she gets a pretty good pop in the ring she starts taking clothes off but unluckily for everybody in the arena she had her wrestling gear on under neath. Trish came out she got a good pop until she got into the ring then she got booed a little but she came to the ring with a neck brace the match kind of sucked the ending came after trish took off her neck brace and I think hit victoria with it and knocked her out.

the coach came out and interviewed Maven I think this was set up during the last second because Batista was supposed to be in the main event and he wasn't. So the coach brings out Maven he was probably the only person to get booed while coming to the ring. So Maven bad mouths Batista after a few minutes Batista comes out to a big pop. throws the coach out of the ring and powerbombs Maven I think Maven bounced a good foot off the mat on the way back to the locker room a chant of you suck was shouted at maven while he was struggling to go back to the locker rooms.


Shawn Michaels vs. Ric Flair

This was a good match both got huge pops the audience was kind of flat because we were cheering for both Flair tried to get heat (didn't exactly hear what he said) He got booed a little bit and got cheered again flair got air three times and did his flop atleast 3 times. Towards the end of the match shawn was trying to do a sunset flip on him he tried for about 10 seconds and seeing he couldn't do it he pulled down flairs trunks flair ran around with his ass hanging out he also dragging shawn around the ring because shawn had a hold of his tights. Shawn won it was cool because I am not sure on any arena except the one here but most of the arena has aluminum flooring and underneath the chairs is nothing anyway shawn was getting ready for the superkick and everybody else was banging their feet on the aluminum it sounded like thunder I could feel my chair move it was pretty cool. Flair and Michaels were slapping each other in the chest and Shawn's slaps sounded louder than flairs. Shawn was pretty cool he went around all the rails shaking peoples hands and stuff it took him a good 10-15 minutes to go in the locker room.

John Bradshaw Layfield & Orlando Jordan vs.The Big Show in a Handicap Match

I believe this was the next match. Nothing special Big show got a big pop and layfield and jordan got a small pop until they got into the ring then got booed JBL and jordan came to the ring in a limo. Match was allright nothing special except Joy who wore a mini mini skirt it was just long enough to cover her ass. Ending came with Jordan receiving a choke slam. While JBL was walking around the ring before the match started I don't know if it was a plant but some guy tried to fight JBL security had to restrain the guy and he got thrown out.

Intermission was kind of cool before christy and the other diva came out some guy jumped over the railing and got into the ring. Some how he ended up getting a bloody lip or nose and was escorted from the ring/building. Christy and another diva search contestant threw out shirts unfortunately none came my way not even close. I must say Christy is very flexible when she was entering the ring for some reason she stretched her leg over her head and then she bent backwards (think limbo) to get into the ring. I don't remember who else was there she was blonde though. Like I said to hear anything was pretty impossible.


After that Stacey and torrie came in the ring to announce the contestants in the battle royale the only name I heard was Tajiri which was cool. Some of the other entrants

Chris benoit
chris jericho
garrison cade
tajiri
rhyno
Hussan
Rob Conway
Sylvain Grenier
The Hurricane
Tyson Tomko ( I think)
Spike
Akio
Funaki
Big show
charlie Haas ( I think)
Kenzo

I am sure there was more but I didn't hear all the names

This match was fun but total Chaos. Spike dudley stayed on the outside most of the match. Tajiri did the Tarantula but was thrown out trying to let go. The last 3 were Benoit, Jericho, and Big show. Jericho was thrown out by Benoit and Benoit basically dragged big show over the rope. after Tajiri was eliminated a few people were chanting ECW at Tajiri. Big show was the last entrant he came in after the match started and got a big pop. Jericho get a big pop and booed Benoit a little bit after jericho was eliminated. Benoit got a big pop after winning the match big show came back in the ring and shook his hand.

John Cena vs. Kurt Angle for the WWE U.S. Title

this was the next match john cena got a huge pop. Kurt angle did also but people were I guess singing You suck during angles song I had to also that is probably my favorite song just because of that. Anyway this was a pretty decent match angle did the angle slam and put the ankle lock on cena but cena got out of it and won the match after the match cena got on the mic and got a little kid to come to the ring with his sign. No idea what he said or what the sign said the only thing I heard was him saying this is what the chain gang was all about.

Kane & The Undertaker vs. Gene Snitsky & John Heidenreich

snitsky and heidenrich was pretty funny snitsky was announced first was cheered until he got into the ring then booed then heidenrich came in and snitsky told him to come here and they hugged. Then Kane came out I think everybody thought it was the Undertaker because Kane got a big ovation until the crowd saw it was Kane and the pop got smaller and smaller. Then Undertaker came out the lights went out and people lit their lighters and were holding up their lighted cellphones Kane was laughing about it not sure about snitksy and heidenrich because I couldn't see them. The match flat out sucked everytime undertaker got tagged in he got a good pop but this match sucked the best part was the ending kane and undertaker tombstoned snitsky and heidenrich at the same time at the end of the match Kane got on one knee and lifted his hand to undertaker that was pretty cool. The other cool part during the match snitsky and heidenrich were in opposite corners and undertaker did a splash into heidenrich and snitsky two times. Kane and I think Snitsky had a cool moment they both bounced off the rope and did a big boot to each other I heard a snap and thought somebodys jaw was broken.

Triple H vs. Batista vs. Randy Orton for the World Title

This match was changed for some reason it was HHH and Randy Orton in a street fight. Randy came out to a medium pop then HHH came out and he got a huge pop which I thought was weird anyway the match was ok a garbage can lid was used 3 times they went into the crowd once. The stairs were used HHH had some trouble throwing them into the ring he threw them up but not high enough and they came back down luckily he wasn't injured but everybody was laughing at him. HHH got hit with the stairs. I think Orton did the RKO I can't remember no pedigree the ending came when HHH hit Orton with a Metal chair this chair was different from any chair I have seen it was like a stainless steel. After the match Orton laid in the ring like he was hurt really bad it took him a good 15 minutes to get up and out of the ring he also went around the guard rails and shook peoples hands after.

By: Joey Styles

The Rock: "My contract is actually up with them (WWE), it was up last year, so I'm done."


WWE is now talking about producing their own movies, but The Rock says his days of donning those tights are in the past. "No. They've been wanted for a long time to get into the movie business and, I'm not too sure, I think like low budget movies, a lot of them straight to video. I think they wanted to and were looking for different distributors. "No, my contract is actually up with them, it was up last year, so I'm done…"

Hey ZombieMan-Any "backstory" on what really happened on the Hogan/Jarrett/Russo/Booker T fiaso that happened in WCW during its final year?

I just remember hearing that Hogan won the title from Jarrett, then Russo came out and stripped the belt and scheduled a Jarrett/Booker T match that Booker T won.

It was the last time Hogan was seen on WCW and I had heard Russo did it to publically humiliate Hogan. And not in a "scripted" way.

Know anything on this one that you might've heard through the grapevine over the years?

DangerMouse, I just got the inside scoop from a very reliable wrestling source (can't mention any names). The whole Hogan/Russo thing was not a work, it was for real and Russo did screw Hogan and publicly humiliate him intentionally. Thats just about all I can say.

After Mike Awesome's match with Masato, I have been a huge mark for him.

Unfortunately, both WCW and WWE misused his talents and put him in crazy messed up angle that killed his image.

Not many heavyweights go to the top rope and execute moves like he did.

Last I heard he was wrestling in the south with a small company, and I can't remember the name of it.

In an interview with IGN last week, The Rock stated that he was "done" with WWE. In a followup interview done this week, The Rock further clarified what happened between him and WWE.

The Rock on his contract status: "Well, contractually, my contract was up, it came and went last year, at the end of the year last year, and it was an interesting way it all came out. I wasn't contacted or notified or anything like that.

The Rock on whether WWE just dropped him more or less: "It was never brought up. Yeah, basically. And I was over in Prague, as my man there was saying, filming, and again, it was just one of those things that kinda like hit like a ton of bricks. Because again, my own team, my managers and everybody, they're congratulating me. It moved me, because I had so much love from them, I thought well…"

The Rock on the possibility of returning to wrestling: "I'm sure the door's always open and I appreciate that… But yeah, I do miss the fans, that part sucks that, you know what I mean, I can't perform live like that. I'm sure I will one day… I love it, man. I love just, you know, live interaction…"

The Rock on whether he has the rights to use "The Rock" name: "No, actually I do. It's almost like a dual ownership, and we had made that agreement, I would say, a couple of years ago, so I'm able to go out and use the name The Rock and be billed as The Rock, if I wanted to, in movies… It's interesting now how things have kinda just taken a life of its own in terms of the name where everybody's like, 'Oh hey Dwayne Johnson...'"

I'm wondering who they're trying to kid with the whole "Batista to Smackdown angle".

It would be great if they actually did it. But its obvious to me Batista is going to find out the Triple H has been behind everything and has been trying to get him to go to Smackdown so he doesn't have to wrestle him at Wrestlemania.

They should just trade Angle and Cena for Batista.

You are right, Sid suffered a nasty, nasty injury. But I have similar things like that a few times at shows around the country. Last that I saw Sid, he was using a walking cane. I can't remember where I saw him, it was on TV but I don't remember what promotion. As for Scott Steiner, he just isn't wrestling anymore. He's sitting back and enjoying all of his money right now, guaranteed. He was becoming my favorite WWE superstar and then they let him out of his contract. I don't know why though. I heard that he was tough to work with too and I could tell by watching him that he was pretty stiff in the ring.

I'm going to make quotes on most of those videos.

1st video...I'm sure that guy was ok after that bump, it wasn't too bad.
2nd video...The Giant forgot to push off on the powerbomb, but he got lucky.
3rd video...That is that guy's finisher, no injury that I know of.
4th video...I bet that one hurt, what a dumbass!
5th video...Once again, see 4.
6th video...I guarantee that dude will need some disk surgery in his back.
7th video...That guy is pretty lucky that he got rolled on over, he might be ok.
8th video...I would say that he got pretty serious neck injuries after that.
9th video...Albert was definitely hurt, he gave the ref the signal for it.
10th video...I can't see what happend too well.
11th video...He might have gotten a minor spike but it didn't look serious.
12th video...That guy is probably paralized right now.
13th video...Looks like it was a suplex turned into a DDT, very painful!
14th video...Broken ankle or knee perhaps?
15th video...I would say that he got his bell rung, good concussion.
16th video...Looks like it hurt like a *****.
17th video...Simple slip, I bet no one was hurt.
18th video...Booooring
19th video...Very well taken clothesline, it was all Orton. He's fine!
20th video...That was a big bump, but it probably didn't hurt too much.

You are right, Sid suffered a nasty, nasty injury. But I have similar things like that a few times at shows around the country. Last that I saw Sid, he was using a walking cane. I can't remember where I saw him, it was on TV but I don't remember what promotion. As for Scott Steiner, he just isn't wrestling anymore. He's sitting back and enjoying all of his money right now, guaranteed. He was becoming my favorite WWE superstar and then they let him out of his contract. I don't know why though. I heard that he was tough to work with too and I could tell by watching him that he was pretty stiff in the ring.

I'm sorry but I can never forgive Steiner for the dreadful match against HHH from Royal Rumble 2003. The guy was good as a heel in WCW but lost it in the WWE.

As for an earlier comment about them swapping cena and angle for batista. Why must there be a swap? RAW have MORE then enough wrestler in their roster. Smackdown need some more talent and if batista were to move he should be the only one doing so. Both Angle and Cena are fine where they are.

Batista should stay on Raw. His heat is there and he has to go after HHH. That's where the story is. He goes to SD and all storylines are dropped and his heat lessens

That match was so horrible it was funny. Then Benoit and Angle came out and put on basically the match of the year with a standing ovation to boot.The next HHH/Steiner match wasn't that much of a improvement either, then Steiner got stuck in that never ending feud with Test/Stacy.

I think both brands need some sort of shake up.

Personally, I think Smackdown getting a new channel would help immensely considering UPN isn't carried in my little Time Warner World.

I wonder if Vince took the lack of UPN TV's into consideration when he signed a deal with them.

I don't like the idea of HBK going to Smackdown, but bringing Lesnar back to SD would be an excellent idea. I would love to see Matt Hardy come back and make Kane and Lita's lives a living hell and have Snitsky at his side helping. But now, Lita is out for quite sometime with her injury. I wish that Benoit would turn heel and have a three way feud with Jericho and Shelton Benjamin.

I doubt it. Angle is a heel right now and it wouldn't make sense for HBK to turn heel. In fact, it would be incredibly confusing if Angle turned face and HBK turned heel prior to Wrestlemania.....which means there is a distinct possibility that it will happen. ;)

I always liked to see guys win it that have been in the business forever and flat deserved to finally get on top.

I have to say my 3 favorites were Booker T and Diamond Dallas Page winning the WCW title and Chris Jerico finally winning the WWE title.

On a side note, I can't believe Jerico was held back so long because Vince didn't think he was "Main Event Material". I think Jerico is the best wrestler on the Mic in the WWE and the guy could always flat out wrestle.

$10.00 says HHH still doesn't drop the belt.

Although I think a story line where Batsita wins the belt and HHH chases after the belt for the next few months would be an entertaining story line, I don't have faith in HHH to drop the belt at Wrestlemania.

I think Batista loses somehow and the WWE writers use the tired and cliche "so close, yet so far" story line where Batista seems to get close to the title but can't seem to win it, until he suddenly wins it at some ppv down the road.

My question to all of you:


What can WWE do to make their belts worth something. Especially the Intercontinental belt.


Keep in mind the main objective for WWE (HHH) is to have HHH win the belt more times than Flair has won his belt so that someone in WWE can say that they are the greatest Champion ever and had won the belt more times than anyone else.

The press release will be very soon, I will keep you all updated on this as more news comes.

Well, I just got the official word from Mr. Page (X Wild CEO) and he said that we will be airing on HBO. The offer in pay is most excellent, but I will be on the road through most of the year, meaning I won't be able to come on here much if I do it and I'd be away from my family alot. Also its a 6 year contract, so thats kind of freaky. The show will go head-to-head with WWE's Raw, but the thing about X Wild Wrestling Entertainment is, that its going to be like ECW, ANYTHING GOES, and thats the name of the show. "Anything Goes"! This way through HBO means that the FCC can't nail them for obscenity or whatever, good call by Mr. Page. HAHA! Anyhow, if you know any indy wrestlers looking to hit it big, tell them to get ahold of me and I can pull some strings for them. Also, this is all if things go well with the network on signing the deal and setting up the press conference. The Ted Turner, Hogan, and Sting rumors were not true by the way, I asked him. Also, it will be a traveling show like the WWE.
