OVW being turned into ECW would pretty much be the worst idea ever.

I find it funny that a lot of people think MMA is the next threat to WWE and that TNA will never be competition, but Vince seems to think the exact opposite based on his actions lately.

I'm about a month behind on my OVW TV, but unless someone just debuted there aren't any "bodybuilders" in OVW.

Jesus, Heyman must have a golden horseshoe up his ass. He's by far the luckiest man in wrestling history. First he ends up the brains behind the hot promotion of the 90s that ended up changing the business, which ends in bankruptcy. Then he lands a job with WWE only to get kicked off the creative team for antagonzing the Veruca Salt of WWE. Then he manages to be in the right place at the right time when Corny quits as booker in OVW, he ends up in charge of WWE's top development territory. Now he ends up in charge of his old brand with the backing of WWE. Somewhere Steph is having a tantrum not seen outside of MTV's My Sweet 16.

Not to open old wounds, but man did the promo at the end of Smackdown tonight reaffirm my belief that WWE won't book Rey the way he needs to as champ. Just him standing next to JBL looked so ridiculous, and having JBL cut a promo on him that only served to point out the obvious (like saying the belt is almost as big as him) only served to make it even more so.

You know that lame Chuck Norris Facts fad that swept the internet recently? They're all true for Chris Benoit.

He did. It was in an airport, and in a moment that has become famous on the net, was set to take JBL's head off with a roundhouse kick but his foot got caught in someone's luggage.

From Meltz's update: As I see it, this hazing shit is only going to end two ways: 1. Someone's going to snap and beat the shit out of one of these hazing assholes. or 2. Someone's going to sue the shit out of the WWE over this.

Are the people who want the split to end really that hot to see HHH all over their TV for 4 hours a week? Cause you know that's what would happen. If it wasn't for the split, half the mid/undercard guys probably wouldn't have jobs.

Ronnie's always been a guilty pleasure of mine, but unless there's something from Mid-Atlantic I've never seen, I can't put any match he's a part of above Savage/Steamboat.

Flair/Garvin better than Savage/Steamboat, I think I've heard it all now.

They shouldn't have a draft this year or any year. All they end up doing is disrupting storylines and breaking up tag teams and turning them into jobbers.

Why? What's the story with Greg Gagne and Vince? I was just thinking that Greg will probably stand in for his dad in the "Vince is the most brilliant man in wrestling" segment that you know is going to be on there just because I don't know if Verne's still got all his faculties (his HOF induction made me wonder if he's just has a hearing problem or if he's going senile).

It seems the Accepted Official Opinion on Savage-Steamboat has gone from "best US match ever" to "OMG OVERRATED!" in the last couple of years.

We've seen it a million times on this board alone how wildly varying people's opinons can be on the same match. Loss and goodhelmet have gone at it like two cats in a wet burlap bag because of how they differ on one match or another. I really don't know what the purpose of the project was other than to confirm that yes, a group of people will have vastly different views on the same 100 matches. I do have to tip my hat to whoever obtained all the footage, they found some hidden gems. It probably was no small undertaking to unearth all that stuff, so job well done. As a definitive ranking of the best 100 matches, I think the list is far too subjective to have any merit, but then any "Best Of" list usually is. I think it was a grand slam in terms of exposing people to wrestlers they may not have heard of or seen in their primes before. From what I've seen, it appears everyone who has the set found a guy they were sleeping on in terms of how well they were in the ring.

What Loss said should be at the top of every message board on the internet.

A lot of it seems to be fear of getting labeled a troll and/or banned if you dare disagree with whatever the current Accepted Correct Opinion is on a subject.

I'm really starting to hate the internet in general. Every place I go to (except NMB ) is just infested with pretentious douchebags. Can't I go somewhere and talk about the scripted rasslin' without getting kicked in the cyber balls?

It's funny how they'll slag WWE and its workers for being talentless shitbags, but threads like "DAVE vs AJ" are full of a lot of the same folks saying Batista is the superior professional wrestler. A lot of people want to have their cake and eat it too, I guess.

How boring is the feature going to be: everyone who's ever tried to compete against Vince (Bischoff, Heyman, possibly Greg Gagne) saying how Vince is the most brilliant mind in wrestling, people in his family saying how Vince is the most brilliant mind in wrestling, people who work for him saying how Vince is the most brilliant mind in wrestling.....etc, etc.

Wasn't that supposed to be Austin vs McMahon originally?

Considering his new nickname, the WWE seems to be putting him in the same league as Jesus.

His tag matches with Rey vs MNM on Smackdown right before he got injured again were really good.

I think this God angle pretty much removes any doubts on the authenticity of HBK's new found beliefs.

I might be the only one, but I liked funny DX HHH more than snarling caveman HHH.
