Boss_Hogg Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 I totally agree. I wish that young wrestling fans would watch it to see what pro wrestling is all about. I used to be into the Ric Flair versus Ricky Steamboat matches, those were classic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyfar Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 I used to be into the Ric Flair versus Ricky Steamboat matches, those were classic. I got my fill of the Fliar/Steamboat series last weekend. I sat thru Flair's and Dusty's DVD collections. Those matches didn't have the high flying antics and innovative moves that entertain me today but they had story, psychology and the violence that I really like.

Heidenreich Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 Main event for ECW this week. RVD vs Sabu vs Kurt Angle in a ladder match. Winner is the #1 contender for the ECW title. Maybe this is the week that ECW starts acting like ECW........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest sith lord Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Well, I'm currently catching the replay of TNA's Hardcore Justice and they had to evacuate the building because of some pyro that ignited some of the pipes on the ceiling. No joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No joke. Now that truly is extreme, even the building takes a hard bump that way. Perhaps we've just discovered how to resurrect ECW after all, don't set Sabu etc on fire, just set the whole building on fire instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-Prime Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 ending DX again would be the worst thing since the current storylines on ECW.DX gets the fans loud, and people watching. If it continues, it will be without Shawn Michaels.. 1. He hates the gimmick now.. 2. He needs knee surgery =( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@DCGoldPants Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Well, it can continue without him in the ring. He can get jumped, need surgery, but still be on Raw with DX causing trouble. This just means they need to create a stable here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK Posted August 16, 2006 Author Share Posted August 16, 2006 This is on the ECW page. Knowing that 40 minutes before showtime, that they still haven't changed the date on the graphic tells me they're really going to eff this one up tonight.

This just means they need to create a stable here. I'll quote this because this is in response to some of the news I've got =).. News - - A Survivor Series poster was "supposedly" leaked, hinting to a war between DX and nWo. I have not been able to find such a poster so this is merely speculative until something more concrete comes up. - Word is Edge will drop the title at Summerslam, or soon after. When John Cena's new movie "The Marine" comes out WWE wants him to have the belt for promotions. - Also on an Edge note, there is a rumor floating about that both Edge and Lita will jump to TNA come November. Lita's contract will be up by then but I'm not sure about Edge's contract. It seems unlikely that they would cut Lita now, when she's finally being brought in to wrestle in an extremely weak women's division. However WWE has recently asked her to have face work done and she has refused. As far as Edge goes, there is no word of any backstage heat or misconduct that would cause WWE not to resign him. The fans react to Edge like Vince McMahon wants. However many in the company think he makes a better "face" then a "heel". Anyway this is just a rumor at this time. - Another WWE Diva on the way out is Trish Stratus. She will be getting married soon and wants to persue other things and spend time with her new husband. This has pretty much been confirmed, there is a feeling in the company however, if WWE were to offer her a lot more cash she'd stay.. This raises the question however, who will be the new face of the women's division. Trish Stratus has been the most recognizable woman in wrestling the last 4 or 5 years. Anyway that's all I got for now. Enjoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was GREAT, and made the PPV very entertaining. Eric Young is the shi*t. He's curtain jerking and was SO over. Those fans love him to death. And he's definitely got *it* I think too. Oh and he did a Flair Flip in that match against Johnny Devine and I marked the f**k out. Is it okay to bleep swears like that? If not I'll stop.

skinsfan1992 Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 I think ECWWE is getting A little better now that they atre no cfross promoting and I wouldnt call Mick Foley and Flair cross promoting Because I feel the "LEGENDS" in the sport can pretty much do what ever they want Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyfar Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 It looks like Vince and Paulie told CM Punk to go out and emulate Samoa Joe. I never recall seeing Punk do that many kicks or a face wash in ROH. Then again, I haven't seen that many of his matched. His finisher is impressive, but it's not the same as the Pespi Plunge.

RedskinChiefin Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 CM is their little Joe, albeit inevitably he'll be booked a lot worse than Joe I'm sure. TNA has used Joe brilliantly, I can't wait to see Sting vs Joe for the strap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I kinda figured tat it would happen that way, but I would pay money and fly to Orlando to see Joe beat Jarrett from pilar to post. The fact that TNA is run by a Jarrett is the only thing that holds that organization back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that TNA is run by a Jarrett is the only thing that holds that organization back. Jarrett is their Triple H though. They need him right now because no one else can really hold that top heel spot. He'll put Joe over when the time is right, or Sting will. Joe will be the new lynchpin for TNA. He'll carry that company for years I'm sure *knock on wood*. But yeah I'm down with Jarrett getting his ass kicked. Hahaha, oh and on the big Christian heel turn. I love obvious heel turns in wrestling. Like when you know this one dude is evil, but he's got a good face run going and you see the seeds being planted for the heel turn. All that "STING IS MY BEST FRIEND" stuff hahha, like a little Lex Luger out there. I marked out for that guitar shot to the knee haha, that was pretty legendary. Christian is winning me over piece by piece. His match at Lockdown with Abyss was insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyfar Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 Yeah it was only a matter of time before they were going to make Christian into a heel. I was shocked when they had him show up as a face. Anywho, Christian is one of those people that's a better heel than a face. With Summerslam coming up this Sunday, will anyone be ordering it? My buddies have decided against it because we would only be ordering it for the Flair/Foley match. Everything else we can do without. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
