El Fenomeno
Yes, wrestling is scripted. But it is an art in itself. It takes years of training to perfect all the moves and is no joke. I hate the way people play it down and say it's fake. If you can have top 10 actors in films, why not in wrestling?

It is also dangerous and the stunts some of them pull off people can only dream about. People get hurt, break their knecks, dislocate their shoulder, so it IS real in a way.

And while skimming through the pages, I read that there is not enough blood these days. Thats because the chances of acquiring a blood-borne diseases has sky rocketed. We all know about AIDS and the likes. The athletes are tested on a regular basis, but they still don't wanna take chances, thus the use of blood to add excitement has become infrequent.

Quality post there m8 and great point about the actors. And I never really considered the lack of blood in wrestling now to be down to diseases transferred through blood.
And just reading a post about Vince, is that guy one hell of a pervert or what. He has had on screen affairs with Trish, Torrie, Stacy, Sable, Candice and a few others I think. He's a sick bastard.

Yes, I've see Raw.

All the show is on Vince McMahon's illegitimate son.

I believe that he is Mr. Kennedy.

King Booker will face HHH at Summerslam.

Genesis_Y3k

Genesis_Y3k
Yeah I heard that rumour too. I don't believe it tbh. I thought Rikishi retired. A-Train was wrestling in Japan if I'm not mistaken but that was a while ago, So I don't know whats planned for him. I liked seeing Matt Morgan in TNA the other week. I was suprised because I didn't even know they signed him. Hope to see him in some matches soon
The notorious 187
i dont think signing wwe rejects like matt morgan, test or tomko is goodd for tna...they should be going for big stars or the ones who have the talent to become big stars in the business.It would be a great coup if they could get brock lesnar but he wants a million-dollar contract which allows him to still take time out for doing MMA-matches.And he also does not want to travel much, so no housshows and things like that.

when will wwe realise nobody wants cena as champion anymore it's getting very boring watching him beat everyone. and speaking of boring whoever's idea it was to make the great khali a wrestler needs hung, he can barely move and when he moves his legs the commentators go wild as if it's great agility. the sooner taker comes back the better.
 V 
I was really pissed off at Cena still retaining the bloody title...he is a prat and not worthy of championship. He lacks ability and has what like 5 moves in total...how i hate him keepin it grrr. I think HHH should challenge him and win the title. REst of SS was ok but i was disappointed Batista didnt win the title, he won the match via Dq. I'd also like to point out Beth Phoenix looks really hot rawr tiger daddy has found a new play toy ha tongue.gif
The notorious 187
cena is selling shirts like no other.The fans go absolutely bananas when he wrestles.Thats why he is still the champ.He gets the fan reactions, whether they love him or really dislike him.The only one whos going to take the title off of him, is one of the experienced and established WWE superstars, like HHH or Shawn Michaels.

For those of you who watch ROH i have great news for you. Mitsuharu Misawa will wrestle on ROH's biggest show: Glory by Honour. The opponent is still to be decided

Samoa joe said he does not want to renew his contract with tna...

TNA favorite Samoa Joe is telling people close to him that he'd rather sign an entry level WWE contract, around $50,000 a year than re-sign with TNA with his current contract.

They're called kids mate
Giacinto Facchetti.
samoa joe coming to the wwe? please kill me now. anybody else wanna see taker take the title from cena although it'll never happen.
The notorious 187
@geneis y3k: i mean the negative reactions too... i know the pro-cena chants come from little marks, but i think the negative reactions he gets every single night are somehow important too for keeping the title.I know its sounds weird
Genesis_Y3k
I feel Cena would get so much more heat being a Heel imo. What are your thoughts?
AYSTER
The Cena chants were unbeleiveably bad, " Die Cena die" when Orton had the sleeper in " Break his neck" then of course the usual " Cena sucks" He will have had the title a year come Unforgiven, too long a reign but well people will continue to watch to see when he does lose it - hopefully to HHH who got a very good reception thoguh Stone Cold got a MASSIVE ovation.

I liked him better as a heel when he did all the rap shit and also had a decent match with lesnar. I'd like to see that cena again but maybe not so much rap.

btw great sig wink.gif

Haha...aww Orton is in there...oh well still a better wrestler than Cena-Nuff
The notorious 187
of course they take steriods...they dont want to ruin thir chances of being a main eventer by staying drug free.
seems like cena is getting his roids elsewhere
Genesis_Y3k
Cena won't get into any sort of trouble. Vince loves him off. Vince takes roids himself! laugh.gif

Raw this Monday will be pre-recored so many more interesting things might happen

Why will ir be pre recorded? Does that mean it will b on earlier than 2am gmt on sky sports?

Apparently because of the problems at the moment. But Raw will be on at the same time on Sky Sports so no need to worry.
Greatness
i wonder how WWE is going to play this for a month...i mean this are like major stars getting busted...i really wanna see what Vince does...and ya i was kinda suprised that Cena wasnt on the list..but i guess hes smart enough to get his shirt from somehwere else...and ahve u guys seen Triple H now...u can tell hes not on roids anoymore...gaining all this weight...but ya Orton is still going to win the championshhip from Cena
 V 
I can't believe they r gonna have Rey V Khali at the next ppv for the world title...pathetic, rey should of never got the world title when he did anyways, he only got it coz of Eddie dying and him dedicating it to him. Plus chavo isn't a great wrestler so would make it more shite.

I can't see Rey beating Khali if he does it will be because Batista and then mayb he will turn and bomb rey to send a msg to say i'm coming for u my pretty and ur lil dog to muwahaha

Totally agree with you there thumbsup.gif

WWE have released Cryme Tyme sad.gif & Eugene

QUOTE
PWTorch.com reports that the Cryme Tyme release stemmed from actions the tag team performed following their Terre Haute house show match against Cade and Murdoch.

According to the Torch report, the two teams had reportedly been developing heat with each other over the course of the past few weeks. That built into an incident prior to the match, in which Shad Gaspard told Lance Cade that "what happens in the ring happens," essentially implying that there might be some stiff shots exchanged. Cade mocked Gaspard's threat in front of a number of wrestlers backstage.

(PWInsider.com later reported that other sources believe Cade made the first remark after Cryme Tyme struggled to grasp the plans for the match finish backstage. The PWInsider report says Gaspard's comment was in response to Cade saying something like, "see what happens in the ring.")

In order to get back at Cryme Tyme for what they perceived as a threat, Cade and Murdoch met with the referee and arranged a rib. Essentially, the plan was to "fast count" while JTG was out of the ring, resulting in a count out loss for Cryme Tyme; Cryme Tyme was unaware of this plan until it was executed in front of the live audience.

In what sources say was a move to save face, Cryme Tyme then decided, without telling the referee, to execute their finishing move on him (they reportedly did so safely, but it was still unexpected). They also tossed his belt into the crowd.

Words were exchanged in the backstage area following the segment, and WWE management eventually made the call to release Cryme Tyme, who were reportedly on thin ice with management anyway due to what some backstage perceived as an attitude problem. The tag team was reportedly unhappy and surprised with WWE's decision.

The increased scrutiny on WWE stemming from the Benoit tragedy, the Congressional investigation and the recent steroid controversy has resulted in a zero-tolerance policy backstage.


I'm pissed off that they released two of my favorites ranting.gif
Giacinto Facchetti.
why was eugene released though? although not one of my favourites but everybody had a soft spot for him.
The notorious 187
hopefully eugene can go to another promotion with a decent gimmickj and show the world what a good wrestler he really is.
Genesis_Y3k
I fear Eugene will have such a tough time moving on from that lame gimmick.

Anyone see Raw last night. IMO the ending was so poor. Fans were half asleep and I'm guessing most of the viewers were too
