I reckon you're all tired of wrestling. Well..too bad. Other than sports, you tell me what is more exciting to watch on TV? TV is nothing but rehashed garbage that we've seen 10-20 years ago.

Anyway... I like how Triple H totally jobbed to his own boss, that's really huge for him haha. This Jeff Hardy/Nitro rivalry is excellent. And as I hoped, a fued between Kane and Umaga is going - smooth move Vince. That match could be what really sells Unforgiven. Anyway you slice it, Cena's going back to Smackdown. As for Chris Masters - he's not that much smaller but he does look more "normal" for his size + age. Although I think the loss in muscle mass in his arms will have great influence on the effectivness of the masterlock, in a bad way.

I can't say that I will miss Trish...she did come from an era where there actually was real women wrestlers(Ivory, Molly Holly, Jackie, Chyna, and so on)but those last couple of title reigns were only cause it's been nothing but TNA, bra and panties, and other dumbshit that she'd win anyway. We've all been at that point where we hated HHH and his long mic times, but honestly..I'm real sick of Edge. Ugh that guy is such an attention whore.

I am with you on this TV thing. But to call the PRESENT wrestling a sport is just wrong. Ever heard of a sport where everything is done and planned perviously? WWE right now is planning everything, from the things the wrestler say to the matches to the promos etc... there is nothing "sporty" about it. There is only acting!

If you had said that in the old days, yes wrestling was a sport. But now it is a planned acting 2 hour show that claims being all real. Or wait, they actually don't! They actually DO tell you everything is not real!

When was the last time we saw a risky match in WWE? When was the last time they did that? Do they think by bringing a FAKE ECW back again they will make people beleive more in this "sport"? ECW right now is nothing! It's clowning compared to what ECW used to stand for.

But i guess everything that goes under the Vince control gets ruined!

I didn't call wrestling a sport. Other than sports. MLB, NHL, NBA, tennis, NFL, etc etc THOSE are sports and those are exciting.

I can understand the growing dislike for it when you compare the old days of wrestling with the new. Yes it's acting, and the outcome of matchs are predetermined, but you can't miss a moonsault and pretend it didn't hurt.

Yes. It's called Boxing. (i'll probably catch heat for saying that)

Oh, and expect Cena to win the title at Unforgiven. Unless of course something huge happens.

Watching RAW right now:

Got damn, Edge is one big freaking crybaby.


Probably one of the better RAW show this year.

D-Generation X...damn I'm just hoping they don't go away for a long time. I never see people like Stone Cold or The Rock anymore, Foley got "fired", so DX is pretty much the best thing on Raw right now.

Okay...RVD would have kept the title longer if he wasn't being friends with Mary Jane.

Well you know why Stone Cold isn't around - you know he wants to wrestle, but those knees and his neck. Eh Rock is gone but that's ok because we got John Cena portraying him. I like how winning the Royal Rumble doesn't mean jack anymore:P.

They lost a hell of a chance last night to get Cena back over with the crowd by not making him turn DX and instead restarting the Cena/Edge feud all over again.

Like I said though, no logic at all.

I don't think that will go over too well for the gimmick itself. Remember how DX melted down the last time when one of it's members had the WWE title :/. I agree that it would do him good for fan support, but it'd be messing up an already good thing. Plus Triple H obviously doesn't like Cena.

If Triple H didn't like Cena, Cena wouldn't be on Raw, Champion or even in the WWE at all. :P

ALSO:

Wait what?!?

DX has melted down anyway you see, it would only be temporary salvagement of Cena's crowd reaction since him going to Smackdown like he should have didn't happen.

So, anyone think that they should switch Cena with Batista? Better yet, what if Cena switched with the Undertaker? I haven't seen that guy for so long since I rarely watch Smackdown.

Even if you watch Smackdown!, you still don't see Taker all that often I have heard....

It's true. Taker doesn't appear very often on Smackdown. He's had a title shot, and that huge fued with Kali, but that's been it. Sonic, Cena switching with Lashley would be great.

huge announcement this Sunday at No Surrender

that's right this is a WWE/TNA thread

My guess is one of two possiblities:

1. Kurt Frikkin Angle in TNA!

or

2. 2 Hour Impact + new time slot!

Either one would be all sorts of awesome!

@ Winter Storm: It does make sense for Umaga's head to be "made out of bricks" because he's a Samoan character, and looking at the history of Samoan characters, they have hard frikkin heads!

No one said that it wasn't a TNA thread also...

Also, the big announcement could be DDP coming back or Goldberg. :tpg:

Or the Ultimate Warrior...(LawL)

Goldberg? Not cool, as his rep was tarnished in the WWE.
Angle? Not likely, as he has his 90 day no compete clause. Furthermore, he may want to stay on the good side of the WWE if he were to come back (granted, I think he's on the bad side right now). I also hope they just won't get him so that he can heal his body, and get his life in order again. If he did join though, he'd probably get the award of the most "shuffled around wrestler" of the year (from Raw, to Smackdown! to ECW to NWA).
DDP? Not exactly THAT big of a surprise.
Ultimate Warrior? No.
Two hour time slot? Likely, but strange no one has picked up on it.

looool
they'd have to fire every wrestler except Sting to be able to pay what Warrior wants. Unless you know, he's realized how big of a douche he's been over the years and has decided to actually take a job instead of lawsuits against people.

(oh noes I might find myself sued for trash talking Warrior on teh internetz!!)

Could it possibly be Eric Bischoff coming to TNA?

Well in any event, this kind of fued calls for a HITC, boiler room brawl, Rumble in the Samoan Jungle, whatever, it just can't be a match that allows DQs, countouts, yadday yadda.

Yes on TNA being in new time slot. Why always after 10? Same for ECW(and I've never seen an ECW match in my life).

Ultimate Warrior is SO OLD! He's not even 'thick' anymore. He needs to stay gone, he was so awesome and then he decided to hang himself emotionally. Even if he does come back he'll be a lolwarrior + no one will wont to work with him given his history.

Angle is on good terms with the WWE, or more importantly, Vince.

DDP has announced intent to return to wrestling, as has Goldberg had talks with Spike TV. Unless Kurt Angle has lied about his plans to go to Mixed Martial Arts, and is jumping to TNA, then I'd have to rule that out immediately.

Yes, Kurt Angle has stated he is done with WWE and is going into MMA.

Though I doubt DDP/Goldberg could be an earth shattering announcement. If I had to put my money anywhere, it would be on them gaining an additional hour on their shows now.
