WWE is going down fast they lost Batista they lost Mr Kennedy they lost Jeff Hardy. WWE complete messed up the ECW name. WWE needs to get their act together or they wont be around if TNA gets much bigger.
To be fair Jeff Hardy is a loose cannon and is always getting in to the headlines out of the ring and not for the right reasons, I don't blame the WWE for moving on and that is coming from a Jeff Hardy fan.

Yep I posted that before I knew of his problems outside of the ring. Truthfully IMO he is bringing not only himself down but also his brother. I wouldnt be too surprise if we here that hes the next wrestling superstar to pass away at a young age. Dont get me wrong I dont wish an ill to befall him but he needs to clean is act up or its going to end in disaster.
Hmm, what did i think about The Rock's return to RAW?
The Rock says IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOU THINK!
Seriously though, that was f'n awesome. Loved the way he took it to both Cole and Cena. And glad they stopped censoring him saying "ass" after the first one, since they probably realized how stupid it made them look, TV-PG or no.
The Rock was saying a lot of the bad words during the 10/11 hour meaning the FCC can't say a word once that hour hits because its past kids bed time. Its a strange rule.
It has nothing to do with the FCC guidelines. Much worse can be said on programs airing even earlier. It's WWE's decision to shift to TV-PG programming in efforts to promote themselves as a "family-friendly" company that leads to their self-censoring.
I noticed only WWE and TNA are the only 2 companies that people talk about it here. If you guys want real athletic wrestling without the bs storylines in the way. Ring of Honor is the company for you. The major two use a lot of former ROH talent. CM Punk,Samoa Joe,Daniel Bryan,Evan Bourne. I could go on and on. Tomorrow there having the first of 2 Live Internet PPV. For only $20 bucks you can check out both shows live,or if you missed them they will have them up within 24 hours and you can watch them as many times as you want. Wrestlemania is almost $60 and only a 1 time viewing. They actually build there own wrestlers unlike the other two who depend on already establish stars but 2 familiar faces are involve in ROH. Charlie Haas & Shelton Benjamin. Another aspect that makes ROH different is that the matches last longer. The shortest a match could go is about 10 mins and there main events have been known to last 30 min and at times 1 hour. If that sounds like something interesting just go to gofightlive.tv and order!
So did anyone here order Wrestlemania for tonight? I am looking foward to alot of the matches and than of course the return of old favorites like Rock, Stone Cold and Trish Status. The Undertaker Triple H fights looks good but as always Undertaker is going to win. So what do you guys think?

For you, the day LordJumpMad graced your threads, was the most important day of your life. But for me, it was Tuesday. [url=http://www.backloggery.com/jumpmad]Unive...
People still watch Wrestling? it's more drama then wrestling...... Call me back when they bring back Hell in the cell or First Blood Match
Just WWE and TNA focus on "storylines" Almost every wrestling promotion else where Japan,Mexico and well the US indie scene. Focuses more on the wrestling more than the entertainment. You mention hardcore matches I suggest you look into CZW. That promotion main atraction are what they call the "Ultra violent style" I got 3 years worth of shows from CZW. Can we post show links in this forum??
Not the best Wrestlemania but it was good. The Triple H and Undertaker fight was by far the best one of the night. I also liked the Lawler and Cole fight but mostly for Stone Cold. And it was good to see the Rock back in a Wrestlemania. So what did you guys think of this years Wrestlemania?

WM27 was a good show. It had its moments (good and bad).
The surprise of the night was Cody Rhodes beating Rey Mysterio. Never saw it coming. A bunch of my friends were made that Alberto Del Rio lost to Edge.
The Triple H/Undertaker bout was brilliant, and the Rock laying out both Cena and Miz was classic. It also marks the first time that Cena lost at 'Mania, if I recall correctly.
What I do fear for is Taker's health at the moment, since he didn't hit his signature pose after the match.

From what I have read from several sources is that Taker messed up his lower back pretty bad. I am not sure if it was all the chair shots that did it or a move that was done wrong. When I get the DVD I plan on watching it again to see if I can catch it when he took a bad hit.
On a side note I thought that was really cool adding Metallica's For Whom the Bells Toll to Triple H's entrance.

I think Taker was just selling for Triple H at the end, since "They'll never be the same again" kind of deal. As for Cody Rhodes, what a terrible gimmick they got going for him, but it made for interesting twists in the match. Also, I noticed he doesn't wear the Triforce on his boot anymore, so I don't care for him anymore. The only time I was really suprised and filled with awe and joy was when Miz actually pinned Cena. Considering Miz has been laying the beatdown to Cena for like 2 months, and after that long Catholic garbage for an entrance, I thought for sure he had it in the bag since Vince isn't one to really go against religion. But thankfully that tool lost,and to someone with talent as well (Even if he's totally ripping off Jericho's persona).
Oh, and watching that Triple H Tombstone was badass,the entire time he was setting it up, I kept thinking "No fuggin' way that's going through. The only man to Tombstone Taker is his own brother, and that's because it's his finisher as well, they're brothers!", then BAM. Proper pin, tongue out and everything. Beautiful.
@BedCommando: Yeah that tombstone was great I thought for sure the Undertaker was going to reverse out of it and tombstone Triple H like he did to Randy Orton when they fought at Wrestlemania a few years back. Especially since Undertaker is really the only one allowed in the WWE to use the piledriver now adays since its been banned.
And I dont know about selling it for Triple H it was really surprising that he didnt do his one knee victory pose like he usually does. I am hoping that he will be ok and not end up with a jacked up back like Hogan. I want to see Taker at least get to 20-0.
As for the Cody Rhodes gimmick yeah I though it was kinda lame. How he kept hidding his face from the camera and such after his match to me it seems like they recycled bits of story from when CM Punk got his head shaved last year, but than again I really dont like Cody I just think the only reason hes where hes at is because of this father and brother the Rhodes legacy so to speak.

I can't believe they advertised Daniel Bryan vs Sheamus and made it a dark match that turned into a battle royal. Silly WWE. I liked the UT/HHH match, until the ending which looked to forced. HHH could have stretched his legs out and got the bottom rope and he also had a freaking sledgehammer in his hand. Orton/Punk was good. Cena/Miz was horrible and I can't believe they let it go to a count out even if it was restarted. I don't know what the WWE is thinking now days, but if that's the best they can do for their biggest show of the year, they got problems.
@JumpMad: Hell in a Cell is still around as far as I know. I thought it had it's own PPV.
