I can't believe they brought back the Boogeyman. He's a fucking waste of good worms. :hits with chair:

...oh, and everything Chera said two messages back? Testify, brother. I wholeheartedly agree.

Rey Mysterio is retiring.

Bummer if it's true. Might just be part of a storyline, though. The article says, "Those close to Rey say he is emotionally stressed following the months of struggle with former friends Vickie and Chavo Guerrero." Sure sounds like a work to me. (Let's hope)

On an unrelated note, I loved the lockerroom-emptying pull-apart brawl between Kurt & Joe on Impact last week! A program with those two has the potential to kick all kinds of ass!

edit: retiring. thats not very exciting... but oh well...

Yeah that was great. I knew Joe was coming out when Kurt started talking trash and called him a bleeder. I don't know who to root for in this fued because I like them both.

Similar situation with Joe vs. Kobashi - the crowd idolized them both.

When Joe fought Kenta Kobashi, Kobashi had just recovered from some very nasty injuries. Yet they still fought the best match North America has seen in a decade. Of course Kobashi is one of the best wrestlers in the world. Angle, too, has seen his fair share of injuries, but he's had a lot of time to rest up. Frankly, I think Angle is an excellent wrestler but not as good as Kobashi. Angle fought some great matches, but his history-making matches were with just Shawn Michaels and Chris Benoit. Kobashi fought 5-star matches with a much more diverse group of people, like Tsuruta, Kawada, Misawa, Williams, Hansen, Akiyama, and Sasaki.

Kobashi vs. Joe was fought in the ROH's NYC bingo hall - the best crowd you could ever hope for. I can't expect the Universal Studios crowd to be half as hot as the NYC crowd, but who knows, maybe, just maybe, Joe can wrestle two Match-Of-The-Years in a row.

BTW, Cryme Tyme was a riot tonight. They stole the frickin' plasma TV! :ROTFLMAO:

Yeah Ring of Honor crowds are the best. Where else are you going to see TP thrown at the ring and chants like "Your gonna get your ****** head kicked in".

When TNA is putting on a really great PPV match the crowd can really get into the show which I hope is case in the Joe vs Angle match.

They throw TP everytime Jimmy Rave steps in the ring(yes everytime) and they have to clean the ring before the match could start. One time someone threw TP at Joe and the crowd went "Oohhh! You're dead" I also saw a clip before where they were throwing streamers and banners to the face wrestlers and one time steel chairs were being thrown inside.

I saw this show where Prince Nana was doing a promo for Jimmy Rave and the crowd was chanting "Shut the F*ck up!" Man RoH crowds are awesome.

Joe vs. Kurt would be awesome but isn't Kurt nursing a lot of injuries? I mean there would be a chance that these injuries get worse when he's facing Joe's "strong" style of wrestling. But knowing Kurt,he'd rather go out fighting than go out making excuses. Looking foward for their match.

Streamers were common in Japan, especially before the mid 1990s. And I once remembered someone throwing TP at Dynamite Kid, back when he was a mega-heel skinhead (who even attacked Tiger Mask with a broken bottle once). After he got hit with the TP, he turned around, looked straight into the eyes of the fool who threw the TP, and I swear, the entire ringside crowd went quiet and shuffled back about 3 feet. Dynamite Kid in Japan was one of the best heels ever.

Joe vs. Kobashi was the very first ROH match I ever saw, and it was quite shocking to see the fans throw in streamers. It gave the match a very old-school feeling. If they sang the nation anthems, introduced the referee, and had ladies handing out bouquets of flowers it would have been perfect.

Angle has had months to nurse up his injuries. His last few WWE matches (in ECW) averaged about 1 minute each. I feel sad that he never had a chance to fight CM Punk. Punk vs. Angle would have been awesome. The clash of styles alone would have very interesting: lucha-libre/muay-thai/bjj vs. catch-wrestling.

Imperx · « **Reply #510 on:** November 01, 2006, 08:46:51 AM »

Nana gets the "Shut the F Up" chant alot. One time he even got an "Eddie Murphy" chant refering to the movie Coming to America. Speaking of Ring of Honor I wish they wouldn't have united the ROH World and the Pure belts together because now they only have 2 champions and I liked the Pure matches.

I still can't get The Final Countdown out of my head.

Tanier · « **Reply #511 on:** November 02, 2006, 03:54:57 AM »

anyone notice how the first hour of raw and smackdown are good, but then second hour/ main event blows the past few weeks. i was getting ready to post on here how good smackdown was then by the time the divas came out it just went down hill except for the boogie man.
same thing with raw first hour good second hour.. unwatchable. its like main event tag match cena booker big show. i'm like who cares i'll just watch the ppv. i haven't watched yesterday's ecw yet but i will soon. i taped it. it would be funny if this week's ECW is better than the last 2 raw and smackdown shows. cause the last week's one was pretty good (compared to WWe's previous ECW broadcasts)

daigong · « **Reply #512 on:** November 04, 2006, 09:14:25 AM »

I dunno, I always catch RAW/Smackdown in the middle or something lol

Like tonite's Smackdown, Boogeyman came back and he shoved a bunch of worms down whastherface's throat

Cyber Sunday seems interesting, I voted for McMahon to ref- who else?

A1 · « **Reply #513 on:** November 04, 2006, 09:47:52 AM »

This is what I voted for:

The ECW title to be put up in the Champions of Champions match
Eric Bishoff as the special guest ref
Jeff vs. Shelton
Ric Flair and "Rowdy" Roddy Piper vs. Spirit Squad
Umaga vs. Chris Benoit (Even though I have a feeling Kane will get this match)
Mickie James vs Lita in the Diva lumberjack match
The Texas Tornado for the 4 way tag team match.

I miss most of Smackdown (again) but I am checking out the clips at WWE.com. to see what I missed.

Raw has been disappointing these past few weeks. Surprisingly, I'm starting to like Cena more since he's started trash mouthing everyone else. Too bad he still can't wrestle. WWE's experiment in SMS voting seemed to be a great success. >750k votes?!? Think of the money they'll make out of that if they do it every week.

ECW was disappointing again this week... Its sad to see CM Punk being wasted on Mike Knox.

The best thing on WWE TV this week was, as usual, London and Kendrick. Damnit they're good. Please please don't let them have to go up against those no-talent goons the Undertaker and Kane.

TNA was strange. The very first match, AJ Styles vs. Sabin, was super good, if too short. Most of the middle matches sucked, except for Ron Killings. He's got the look and the style of Booker T in his prime, but wrestlers twice better. Ron Rules! The very last segment of the hour was clips of Joe and Angle training for their upcoming match, which was awesome. Joe doing his Judo and Muay Thai, and Angle doing his traditional catch wrestling. I haven't seen a training video this well done since Rock vs. Brock. And that one showed that farm boy Brock carrying a frickin' tree over his shoulder...

/me awaits in anticipation to see what they're going to do with the continuing Ron Simmons angle.

A1 · « **Reply #517 on:** November 07, 2006, 10:41:53 PM »

So K-Fed wants to wrestle now huh? Please let him leave the ring with something broken.

RatBastich · « **Reply #518 on:** November 07, 2006, 11:46:02 PM »

^I agree with you completely.

I hope he'll end up in traction after Cena beats him down.

chera · « **Reply #519 on:** November 08, 2006, 12:38:47 AM »

I like K-Fed, if only for the fact that he's a great natural heel, the type of guy that gets boos for just his look. I hope they put him with Nitro more and help elevate Nitro into a more serious and entertaining character. Frankly, it's a marriage of convenience: WWE gets great "heel heat" and K-Fed gets exposure and money. He'll need it now that Birtney just divorced him.

I don't think Ron Simmons will get an angle of his own. More like they'll just try to exploit his newfound catchphrase now and then.

Raw last night was a snoozefest. Literally. I fell asleep about 10 minutes before the ending and missed seeing the male stripper. I haven't been this happy in a long time!
