They didn't blow last night like I was expecting. That was a nice surprise.

I still think the WWE is hurting for real "Factions" to war with each other across all brands.

Are you guys kidding? EVERYONE hates Mike Adamle.

He's going to get booed out of the building every week.....

Its not like they hate him like a heel either. They hate him because he flat out is bad at what he does. He has no ring presence.

Even Vicki Gurrero in all her nasty bad acting.......is much better than this.

Good job Vince, you screwed the pooch here.

"My wife gave me one of these new fangeled phones that doesn't need any wires. Can somebody please show me how to turn it on?"

Just was flipping around and came across the turd that is the current ECW.

I think Kane should go back to Raw and get into the title mix.

Get Cena over to Smackdown to mix it up with Edge and Batista.

and.....BRING BACK MORE FACTIONS.

You can include more guys if they are in their little gangs.

I'd like to be into kissing Maria (and, well, just into Maria :hump: )

Ummm, yeah.

However, Mickie is still the Queen hottie. Even for a cowboy fan and ex-fetish model.

Maria looked alittle too into kissing Charlie.

One of the HBO's to showing "Ready to Rumble"

So stupid, yet so funny.

WWE needs some Nitro Girls. No doubt.

Oh...and Mean Gene.

That's dumb.

Unless he wants to retire.

I'd have him be the Mgr for Batista......or somebody else without great Mic skills.

I missed the Flair stuff.

So, is he "Gone" Gone?

I figured he'd be done wrestling, but stay on Raw somehow.

GM, Mgr of a Stable.....etc.

Can somebody please post the hottest pic of Mickie James out there?

Thanks.

Smartest Wrestler alive?

HHH.

Marry and knock up the bosses daughter? BRILLIANT!

So, the guys who are on TV every week probably make a lot more.

I wonder how much a guy like Jeff Hardy makes in salary.

I was waiting on him have Angle re-name all the belts like Lance Storm did in WCW. Remember when the US Title became the Saskatchewan Heavyweight International Title?

Oh yeah, I totally forgot about ole Lance Storm.

You guys remember when WWF Raw was only live like once a month? But WCW was always live? That one where on WCW, Bishoff tells the crowd to not change the channel to WWF, and that Mankind was going to win the title over there.

So nasty!

With so many shows on TV, if belts aren't up for grabs. Then people care even less.

I think that's the problem with "brands" in the WWE.

One brand with factions and you might not have to see all these belts up for weeks at a time.

Don't get me wrong. Even for a Dallas fan. Mickie James has the best "total package" of all the divas.

yeah. How tall is she? She seems big, but everything is sized on her right. Her body is pretty sick.

Her gimmick sucks though.

Is Victoria hot or bushleague?

I can't tell.

That stinks. I thought Jeff was doing really well with the big boys.

She is like that Seinfeld episode.

In the right booth at the diner, she looks smoking.

Even if she's a cowboy fan, I'm still in the tank for Mickie James.

The cover was leaked recently.

This is the Faction I wanted.

‘Smackdown’ smacked down by CW

Pro wrestling series leaving network in fall after 10-year partnership

NEW YORK - Pro wrestling is getting smacked down by the CW network.

The long-running "Friday Night Smackdown" won't be airing on the CW this fall, the network and World Wrestling Entertainment said late Thursday. In separate announcements, they stated that "after a successful decade of ‘Smackdown,’" they had agreed to conclude their partnership after the 2007-08 season.

No reasons were offered.

WWE added that it began talks with other networks after the CW's exclusive period to negotiate a renewal ended Jan. 31. Although no details were disclosed for a possible new home for the show, candidates might include NBC Universal, whose USA cable channel already carries "WWE Raw," and MyNetworkTV, where some affiliates aired "Smackdown" when they were UPN stations.

The two-hour "Smackdown" premiered on then-fledgling UPN in fall 1999 as strategic counterprogramming on Thursdays. "Smackdown" gave UPN a foothold on that night of bruising prime-time competition, but even as a ratings contender, it proved to be a sometimes uncomfortable fit with UPN's image.

When UPN, owned by CBS, merged with Warner Bros.' WB in 2006, "Smackdown" seemed no less out of place on the resulting CW network.

Agreed.

Let him "win", and then decide to retire on his own.

Actually, let him beat Vince....then retire.
