The Wrestling Thread

[BurningDoom]

What I'm interested in:

* WWE Presents the Best of WCW Nitro - 5/24
* WWE Raw Best of Seasons Three and Four - 8/23
* WWE 50 Biggest Matches - 11/29
* WWE Austin vs. Rock - The Rivalry - 12/13

The Best Cage Matches and Million Dollar Man ones look cool. But their gonna be Netflix rentals, not buys.

John Cena via Satellite

... then we find out his both Satellite and in person. nice. Also Trish wrestled again!

..on the other hand:




.......... (but that girl is hot though)

Yeah, she seems like a classy lady too. Those are the moments when being married must seem like a drag

I caught this on Hulu and had to fast forward through the show and like a thousand ads to see his part. He didn't do too bad, but he'll have to step up his game if he wants to win this. Not likely he will, but it would be funny if he did. Imagine heel Jericho coming back to Raw.

"Unlike you mindless sheep I am an honest man and the best in the world at what I do.....and I can outdance anybody in the locker room! Boo me all you want you no talent hypocrites, but I brought the highest ratings Dancing with the Stars has ever had! I can't expect you insignificant philistines to appreciate true talent!"

And since this is the WWE we're talking about, I can picture a dance off involving Jericho, Kali, Santino and Koslov

Codebreaker on all three of them. Crowd boos. Okay, I need to stop rambling now

Random thought I had

Isn't it interesting that the most high profile match at Wrestlemania is basically the divas match? Snookie's match with Laycool, Trish and Vicki is going to bring it a LOT of casual fans and non-wrestling fans. It's already been all over the entertainment shows on tv and has gotten enough attention that WWE's hiring of Snookie for this event has already paid for itself

Now I don't like Snookie or reality tv. I don't know anything about Jersey Shore and couldn't care less. However, given how often people hate on the women's division and say that the WWE doesn't need it, I find this whole thing rather ironic

Also, I'm pretty high on Laycool and Vicki Guerrero. They are FANTASTIC heels and very entertaining. I laughed my ass off at Laycool mocking Snookie not because I really give a damn about the whole thing, but just because Laycool can be so damn entertaining. They're kind of like a female version of what Miz and Morrison were like as a tag team. I have a huge crush on Leyla, who is one of my fave divas. She's the real star of Leycool

I think the Rock and Snookie(as much as we may hate her)are going to really up the buyrate for Mania this year. They're the star power. Snookie is the tv star and the Rock can be viewed outside the wrestling world as at least a minor movie celeb....certainly moreso than all the other wrestlers who tried their hand at doing movies with just plain awful results

Random thought I had

About three weeks ago my girlfriend's thoughts on Wrestlemania: "Whatever, babe! You boys have fun!"

Last Tuesday after finding out about Snooki on Wrestlemania: "OMG! I so wanna see my girl fuck shit up!"

So, yeah.. It's definitely done its job of promoting the event to casual/non-fans.. The extent to my girlfriend's wrestling knowledge is Hulk Hogan and The Rock, (also on the bill,) and even she's excited..

Vince seems dead set on making WWE as popular as ever, maybe somewhere in his mind he thinks he can brings things back to Attitude Era popularity

I mean he is bringing in Sin Caro and pushing Del Rio to bring in the Mexican fans. He has Shane working in Japan to make the WWE brand more well known over there, we know Kali seems to bring in the India crowd and he is using this Snookie thing to bring in the females

It's very smart actually.

Meanwhile, TNA continues to bury itself from what I keep hearing from fans

[BurningDoom]

^ Yep. Big TNA fan here, yet last week's Impact made me embarrased to be a TNA fan.

[Rurouni_Fencer]

He has Shane working in Japan to make the WWE brand more well known over there

Is that where Shane went? I heard he and Vince had a falling out and he up and left the company to pursue MMA promotions..?

I heard the same thing.
