Because, like HHH, he has power. I cant blame him really. He's been working his ass off for 15 years straight, in the same company, where he couldve left for WCW like his contemporaries were. He's been in some lame fueds, and has been nothing but loyal to vince.

I agree he has put up with a lot of crap,the feuds with Heidenreich and with JBL were pathetic,i still think though he should show the class and put Orton over better than he is

I wish they just stopped the fued after summerslam. Randy managed to win, Taker still kept his record. they shoulda kept it at that.

Since taker's returned, he's been in bad fueds, IMO, which is why i hoped they switched him to RAW

- WWE airing a brief interview with Bret Hart, speaking on his brother Owen's death, during the Raw Exposed special was an agreement violation. That piece was to be exclusive to the upcoming Bret Hart DVD release. Hart was in Italy when the show aired.

But what is the point of putting them on Velocity when the card is already bloated enough as it is? Rather pointless to add another element to a show that already doesn't have space for what they already showcase.

Eric Draven

10-15-2005, 10:09 PM

I have no idea, and I personally think this midgets wrestling is a horrible idea as well. Instead of starting up this division, they could just use that television time to help develop their tag team division more or even their cruiserweight division......

I was able to vent about my wrestling issues by enjoying the occassional live event. 5 hours, 20 bucks, public humiliation on both sides. Man, those were fun. Really kept me interested. Haven't been to a show since April (with an amazing match between Chris Candido and Homicide that bested bother WrestleMania 21 main events) and now shows are only in L.I. and it is hard for me to get out there with no car. I will get back there eventually.

Is aynone else not really looking forward to this week's RAW? It seems like ever since Raw went back to USA, it's had a "evil" tone to it like you feel kinda pissed off watching it, mostly thanks to the McMahons.

Hell, for the first in a while I was actually looking forward to Smackdown.

Yeah, I've been having that feeling about Raw as well. Just the way the show ended last week left a horrible taste in my mouth and the news that "All Four McMahons will be united this week on Raw" just doesn't make me look forward to the show this week. And this is coming from somebody who been able to tolerate most of the stuff that was on Raw the past few months :(

Despite being "fired" on WWE RAW, Jim Ross' bio as executive vice president of business strategies remains on WWE's business website. Ross' ten year contract with WWE - during which he recieves $300,000 per year, a cut of each show's gate and stock options - expires on October 29, 2006.

In addition to receiving only brief confirmation that WWE planned to build towards a Hogan vs. Austin match, Steve Austin was also not informed that his angle on the WWE RAW Homecoming show would lead to Jim Ross' firing from the RAW commentary booth. Sources say that Steve Austin was not at all pleased with how his good friend was removed from the show; the general feeling amongst all those close to Ross is that if WWE does not have a plan to rectify the situation, frustrations will not ease.

I went to a Raw house show on Sunday, it was fun and I took pictures but not from a digital camera. I can't post any pics unless I get a scanner, not sure when that will be. The Matches I seen were:

Kane vs. Tyson Tomco- Good to see the return of Kane, who won by choke slam. Not that exciting though.

Murdock and Cade VS. Val Venis and Visra- Good action match went back and forth but, Murdock and Cade got the upper hand scoring the pinfal retaining their titles. Funny moments with Vis wiping his butt with Murdock's shirt and Vis girating over Cade.

The Masterpiece VS. Tajairi not too much action Tajairi was the latest victim of The masterlock.

Rob Conway VS Eugene Eugene made things entertaining by stealing Conway's glasses. Conway got the win by pinfall.

Bigshow VS Edge w/Lita This was an interesting match, people yelled We WANT MATT. Edge got on the fans and gloated how he made Matt leave Raw forever. Bigshow came out, this was a good match and went back and forth. Show actually got the pinfall win, which I was pleasantly surprised.

Ashley and Trish VS Victoria and Torre Wilson there was action and this match entertained. Ashley got spanked by Torre Wilson and the match went back and forth. Victoria and Torre got the win by interferance.

Ric Flair VS Carlito Great return of the Nature Boy since being beaten by HHH. Match went back and forth and Flair made Calito submit via figure four leglock to retain his title. Out of all the chops given tonight, the one by Flair was the loudest.

Main Event

Kurt Angle VS John Cena best match of the night, lots of action all over the arena. Cena took two Angle slams which was very impressive. Cena finally got the win via pinfall victory with the FU. The whole show lasted 2hrs 35 minutes, not bad for my money. I sat in the second row near the wrestlers entrance and seen Arn Anderson sitting at a makeshift table evaluating the matches.

The show could've been better as there were no McMahons or Shawn Michaels, which was sort of disappointing for me. We did see Carlito leaving in a Red Ford Taurus though after the show ended, as we walked to my car.

i dunno why some of you people hate on the fact that the mcmahons are back on tv. the vince/austin era was some of the most entertaining stuff in recent wrestling history and now the mcmahons are back to entertain us. what's wrong with that? vince and shane have both put their bodies on the line in some insane matches (shane = bumps) for the fans. as for JR being fired, so what? it's not the first time. besides, you're telling me vince hasn't had more embarassing moments? pissing himself in the middle of the ring? if anything, the return of the mcmahons has me the most excited i've been for raw in a while. as for smackdown? booooring... i missed no mercy and i can't even say i care, especially since bob orton was involved in a match and batista is still champion. not that i'm any happier with john cena, but batista is just so... generic... alright, enough rambling. back to class.

WWE.com has just updated their main page asking the question "Is Steve Austin going to show up on RAW tonight?". As noted earlier, this is likely WWE's way is turning this thing into a major angle. With WWE advertising him so heavily on their website, it wouldn't shock us to see him appear live tonight. RAW is also in Sacramento, CA tonight, a state that Steve Austin now calls his home and with the new 'attitude' of WWE these days, we could have ourselves something big. Here is the WWE.com statement:

Mr. McMahon promised that someone would pay for Stone Cold's actions at WWE Homecoming, but he never officially fired anyone. Instead, WWE CEO Linda McMahon shocked the world when she fired Good Ol' J.R., Jim Ross, from the RAW announce team and delivered a humiliating low blow as her and her family celebrated in the middle of the ring. J.R. has been the voice of RAW for years, so what will RAW sound like without the proud Oklahoman?

Mr. McMahon said that he wasn't going to fire Stone Cold Steve Austin, but he did say that he had a plan for the Texas Rattlesnake. After hearing that McMahon has a plan for him, and after seeing one of his best friends fired and humiliated, will Stone Cold show up on RAW to raise some hell?

Confirmation of the boring road RAW is on,At least SD is picking up except Batista as champ:o :(

As of this morning, the plan is for Jerry Lawler and Jonathan Coachman to carry the RAW announce team. There is still talk of bringing an outside person in for the RAW announce team. However, there has also been talk of bringing over Michael Cole to the RAW announce team.

There is no talk whatsoever of Jim Ross coming back to RAW. Several within the company feel that Jim Ross has been on Vince's bad side ever since he started doing less work for the company by moving from Connecticut back home to Okalahoma.

and thank goodness that JR isn't coming back. i was so ****ing tired of him saying texas-catch-can-style and jezzabelle, or whatever he was mumbling. i don't know how coach and the king are going to carry the announcing seeing as how they've always been color commentators, and michael cole isn't much better, so i hope they fix that somehow.

Well it would be stupid for HHH to lose a feud with Flair and immediately jump into the world title picture; however, this is the WWE and we know that logic isn't really one of their strengths.

There's no need for a Hogan/Austin match either. Right now, Hogan is getting ridiculous and even his pops are dying down because of his reappearances. In my opinion, he just needs to retire and let it go, but if he wants to be apart of wrestling then he should be a commentator or a manager.

- It looks like Tajiri will be leaving WWE and perhaps even pro wrestling all together when his WWE contract expires. I believe he signed his first WWE contract back in February 2001 or so after ECW closed down, so I would assume that it would be expiring next February.

Apparently, his wife has problems getting a drivers license here in the states. When Tajiri is on the road, she can't go anywhere and she's lonely. Tajiri is thinking about moving back to Japan and becoming a news reporter.

Would be a shame to see Tajiri leave the company and wrestling in general, but family should come first.

WWE News!!

Both Steve Austin and Stephanie McMahon were pleased with how their RAW segment played out; Stephanie was particularly a fan of Austin's ad-libbed crack about her balls falling out of her dress. The two shared an upbeat conversation after returning to the backstage area.

-- Kurt Angle has expressed interest in being billed as a permanent main-eventer, much in the way Triple H has been booked over the past few years. Sources close to the situation report that Angle wants to be known as the best ever, and he fears that his current role as a "utility heel" will not allow him to accomplish that feat. The odds of Angle being permanently pushed above John Cena and Triple H, however, are not said to be too large.

Rumors are circulating that Christy Hemme is now dating Joey Mercury (Joey Mathews). This isn't the first WWE Diva Mercury has dated as he dated Alexis Laree while he was down in Ohio Valley Wrestling. Also note, Melina is currently dating Johnny Nitro.

The Rock is scheduled to appear on Regis and Kelly this coming Thursday.

Low Ki called WWE offices last month in seek of employment. WWE thinks he works too stiff and he wouldn't fit in, so it's not likely that anything will come out of this. He's supposedly tired of working overseas and TNA won't take him back under any circumstances for something he did before he left (I'm not sure what it is that he did but it's bad), so his options are a bit limited.
According to imdb.com, Kimberly Page's guest appearance on CSI:Miami airs next Monday on October 24th on CBS at 10:00 P.M during Raw.

A few promoters in the south and some of his friends are saying that Rock 'N Roll Express member Ricky Morton is currently in jail for non-payment of child support. Unless someone puts up bond money, he could remain in jail until January. I believe he and Robert Gibson are currently at odds about some disagreement they had a few months back.

Former WCW Saturday Night mainstay Hardbody Harrison (Harrison Norris) was indicted in nine-count federal indictment for false imprisonment and trafficking women for commercial sex acts yesterday.

Tajiri's not getting any higher than he already has in WWE. He's really never been anything more than a CW champ or a tag team champion with a mis-matched partner.

He's a great wrestler and performer and he was a great champion in ECW and WWE. I'd hate to see him go, but its not like he's doing anything of actual value in WWE right now. If he decides to stay wrestling, I hope he joins one of the prominent Japanese promotions.
if tajiri stays in wrestling[ tho i consider his leaving wwe so his wife and family can get around more and not constantly be stuck at home commendable] how do you think he'd do in tna? :marv:

Low-Ki in the WWE? Never happen. Good wrestler, but I think his personality is a bit lacking for the type of entertainment WWE puts out.

Yeah, he would be as successful as Tajiri was in the WWE......I want to know what happened between him and TNA though :confused:

I wouldn't be surprised if he opened his mouth about the company on the way out. Or was schduled for a series of shows and cancelled for shows in Japan. That always leaves you looking bad, breaking commitments because you can make more money elsewhere.

I think it has to be worse than that given the amount of No-shows Jeff hardy has had with both WWE and TNA and yet kept working

Hunter Rider

The PWTorch Newsletter reports that Triple H is not a backer of Jim Ross backstage. It all goes back to what happened years ago, when Jim Ross was playing hardball with Triple H when working out a new contract. Triple H felt that Ross was treating him as a second-tier talent, rather than the main eventer he is. Years later, when HHH expressed his frustration with that, Vince told Hunter that he should have just came to him to talk about it. Which is interesting because it was Vince's very own orders that JR was carrying out at the time.

Some feel that one other thing that has been working against Ross, aside from stepping down from his full-time position at WWE headquarters, is how vocal he has been against the current direction of the company. Especially with Stephanie McMahon, when it comes to "sports" versus "entertainment", and which one should come before the other.

Personally, I don't like the way Cena got toned down. I hate the way he comes out to the ring acting like a spaz, I hate the spinner, and I don't like how his raps have degenerated into nothing more than gay jokes.

A few promoters in the south and some of his friends are saying that Rock 'N Roll Express member Ricky Morton is currently in jail for non-payment of child support. Unless someone puts up bond money, he could remain in jail until January. I believe he and Robert Gibson are currently at odds about some disagreement they had a few months back.When did this happen? He was in a local Autoparts store where one of my friends works at the about a week ago. He lives in the area, and I've seen him in there as as well.

I read about it less than a week ago, so I'm thinking fairly recently.

-----

Smackdown was actually entertaining, except for two matches.

First Benoit vs. Booker T for the title. It was a great match up until the finale with Sharmell interfering. I know it's part of a storyline, but Booker is looking weaker and weaker each match with her interference. I would like to see the rematch end with a clean win by either wrestler.

Second "Hardcore" Bob Holly vs. Sylvain Grenier in a hardcore match. And this is why I don't miss hardcore matches. This did not keep my attention at all. I was doodling on scrap paper while talking to friends instead of watching the match. I like Bob Holly but this feud is going nowhere fast. Lets hope this was the end of it (at least Sylvain actually went through the table). No, a question, why is Holly still called Hardcore if this is his first hardcore match since... 2003 the latest?

Otherwise, I enjoyed the show, even the Teddy Long/Carson Palmer/Juniors/Boogey Man segment (damn that's a lot for one segment). Glad I caught the show this evening.

Just one question, is he really missing those teeth or are they molds over his real teeth. Either way, it is a good look.

If he really did take out his two front teeth for the gimmick, he must be totally committed to it. I mean ouch :eek:

Man,I remember a few weeks ago when Boogey Man first debuted.I missed Smackdown because I had to go somewhere,but I taped it.So at like 11:00 at night I'm seeing his segment,and he's moving that clock and all that ****,and once he started screaming ''I'm the BOOGEYMAN!'' I nearly **** my pants.He's alot creepier than I'd thought he would be.

Sabretooth

Might be why they're just giving him promos now.But then again,I think it would sorta cheapen him if he actually wrestled alot.I kinda like him just popping up out of nowhere and saying **** like ''I'm the Boogeyman!I'm coming to get you!''

Eric Draven

10-22-2005, 03:52 PM

I doubt he will wrestle much. It seems like they're trying just to set him up as a comedic act. Which is actually what I said should've been done with him from the start :o :)

Even better: If they teamed up Boogeyman with someone like Glacier or Goldust :up:

10-22-2005, 04:42 PM

I am really missing Papa Shango now.

If the Boogeyman can't cut it in the ring (if he can work better than Chris Masters I'll be happy) his promos could still keep him on the program. Now, I rather see wrestling but his first two promos have just be hilarious enough to want to see more of them even if he's a poor performer.

Who knows, maybe he can be the next Ultimate Warrior, in character.

Eric Draven

10-22-2005, 04:51 PM

I think that's what the WWE is trying to do with his character, try to lampoon Warrior a bit.

As much a Cactus Jack and Mankind fan I am and as much as I hate Dude Love, I'm still gonna vote for Dude Love, just because it's an option. Because of this poll, I can't take this match seriously. This idea of voting for what gimmick Foley will assume during the match just takes away from it, I feel. I still want to see the match, but the idea of voting for what gimmick bothers the hell out of me.

Turned? Foley has basically been a punching bag since the Attitude era started.

Exactly Foley is a giver,and his gimmick is he can abosrb a lot and keep on going in the same way Angles selling point is his mat skill or HBK's selling point is his charisma and talent or HHH is his ruthlessness and methodical style,Foley won the fans by taking a beating and keep on going,not many in the game tell the in ring story like Mick,he can draw an audience in and make them care

That's basically how Foley got over with the fans in 1998. Before KOTR, a lot of fans were losing interest in him. But after all the punishment he took from the Undertaker, he developed an all-new following. That match was basically how I grew to appreciate what Foley does in the ring.

After jumping to the RAW brand this past summer, Kurt Angle has reportedly made it clear to many that he wants the chance to take part in many PPV main events to prove himself to WWE management. According to reports, Angle wants to be used more than just a "utility heel" and wants Vince McMahon to put faith in his work to build him as a reliable worker.

The reason many people see issue with that taking place relies soley on McMahon having a tendency to show more faith in son-in-law Triple H. McMahon is also very big on John Cena being the centerpiece of the WWE at the moment and plans to take the WWE Championship off him doesn't appear to be in the plans for at least the next few months.

The overwhelming opinion among many a few months before the WWE Draft Lottery in June was that Angle needed to jump to the RAW brand in order to further his character after his abilities weren't used to its fullest potential on the SmackDown brand. However, since the jump, Angle looks to have stalled a bit, although he is still scheduled to play a prominent role in the WWE Title scene well into Survivor Series. What the plans are after that is anyone's guess. Angle has stressed in many interviews in the last few months that he would like to see WWE, and Vince McMahon more importantly, give him the ball and run with it despite his past neck injury problems. One WWE source told The Torch, "Angle has sacrificed his health and his marriage for the business. He's lost so much, he won't settle for less than being known as the best ever. He may not get that wish, though, and that could haunt him forever."

It was probably the dumbest thing the WWE has done. Ever. I literally couldn't watch any more of Raw after that. I just shut off the tv and I don't plan on watching the replay in two hours to catch up on what I missed. The only decent thing this week's show had was JBL and Rey Mysterio showing up. Everything else was just crap piled upon crap. I hate to say this, but I may actually stop watching Raw. SD is providing a far better program. They have a decent midcard. The US title is actually being decently defended. The main event is decent enough. They have comedy angles that don't involve stupid-ass anal probing. They actually have a good tag team division.

Ugh, I suddenly want Raw off USA ASAP :down

i'm guessing gregory helms is just gregory helms because kurt angle abused him last week. totally beat his ass for sticking his nose in mr. mcmahon's bidness. actually, i was suprised they didn't take the hurricane off when hurricane katrina happened, in similar fashion to pretty much actually killing mohammed hassad. i was wondering when they were going to give helms a push... and i'm hoping that's what this actually is.

and vince pulling JR's head out of his ass was hilarious. a little long, sure, but vince is just too funny.

Man, that segment reminded me of something... I KNOW! THEY DID THIS ALREADY! After the infamous Katie Vick gimmick (and the extremely hillarious vignette between Kane, Booker T and Golddust), Kane played a doctor and pulled HHH's head out of Hurricane's ass while dressed as HHH in the very same type of segment.

Man did Raw ****ing suck. I though Mcmahon was despicable before, but afte tonight it was utterly disgusting, his show of disrespect to J.R. Johnathan Coachman sucks as lead commentator, he has as much charisma as a donkey ****ing chicken wire, yeah thats right that statement makes no sense, just like it doesn't make sense that "Coach" still has a friggin, job. He must be pulling a Buff Bagwell. The main event was good, Mickie James is cool, HHH vs. Flair looks to be shaping up good. Cade and Murdoch still blow as a team, Vis should just go away, and JBL's promo ruled.

How's that for a thousandth post.

It was due to some kind of injury.

Interesting WWE Taboo Tuesday News:

On the main Taboo Tuesday voting page, the WWE has added a new match to the card that they didn't announce on Raw. Rob Conway will have to square off against Eugene and the fan's choice of a WWE Legend in a handicap match.

The three Legends that the fans can choose from are:

1.) Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka
2.) "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan
3.) Kamala

There is some debate going around about the Triple H/Ric Flair match at Taboo Tuesday. While neither the announcers or the players involved have mentioned that the match will be for Flair's Intercontinental Championship, the graphic that flashed on the screen during the WWE.com Unlimited footage said that the match will now be for the Intercontinental Championship. We will try and keep you updated on if Flair's title will be on the line at the PPV, or if it was just another case of the WWE tech guys messing up again.

I was very impressed with JBL in his segment. And he pretty much described Masters to a T. I hope JBL keeps this current persona, it works real well for him.

I was happy to see the beginnings of a Gregory Helms/Rosey feud. I've been looking forward to this feud for near 2 years now.

I could really see JBL being set up as a face now, kind of the leader of the SD group.

However, I could also see this being set up as a swerve with JBL turning on the SD lockerroom.....

Interesting to read that the reason both Mickey James and the Boogeyman are both with the company now is because of Ted DiBiase. Nice to know his imput is at least trying to make the company better.

Looks like I'll be broke again once the Bret "Hitman" Hart dvd (released Nov 15) and Jake "the Snake" Roberts dvd are released. Now, if the company would only put out Ted DiBiase, Kerry von Erich and Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat dvd sets.

Thanks for the info on Kevin Nash GL FAN & Hunter, I hear he may even be done with wrestling altogether.

I think Vince is trying to recapture that glory from 5-7 years ago when he and his family battled SCSA and made the WWE what it is today, but Vince should realize that you can't relive the past, and get the same results again, didn't he learn anything from trying to bring back the nWo? That didn't work and the mcmahons vs SCSA won't work again either!

The NWO would have worked the problem was bring back the NWO was Vince's way of pissing on WCW which pissed me off. The NWO was working after they painted Austin and rammed the Rock with a truck. Then Vince just took a giant piss on them and thats when I stopped watching. I mean put a dancing Heart Break Kid in the NWO was the finally straw for me. I do think how ever Triple H should have came and lead them.

The problem with the NWO was they were all washed up when they arrived in WWE and the only one the fans cared about was Hogan and given the pops he got it was smarter to make him a face

The actor responded, "Can you smell what the Rock is cooking," to which the wrestler replied, "Yeah, and it smells like *****."

A website that claims to be the official homepage for Steve "Sting" Borden says that the wrestler will be squaring off with Shelton Benjamin on Monday's edition of WWE RAW.

Although the rumor is getting a lot of play, sources do not believe there is anything to it at this point. Aside from the fact that the website has not been confirmed as his official site, no one in WWE has heard anything about a possible debut for Sting (nor has Sting led those close to him to believe that he's considering a debut).

On top of that, the logic of debuting such a big name the night before a PPV must also be called into question. With the PPV card already set, and there being no room for Sting in the most high-profile of matches, the feeling is that his name value would be wasted in this situation.

Edge has a partial pec tear and will be out of action. No word on how long he'll be out or if he'll work Taboo Tuesday. At this point, he will not need surgery.

Kane suffered a very serious back injury Monday on RAW after taking a suplex by Big Show. There is fear he suffered a broken back.

Chase Stevens of TNA is doing OK after a nasty head dive at the tapings this past week. Doctors have told him he'll be out 3-6 weeks but he may be back even sooner than that.

From WWE.com:

Longtime wrestling promoter Jerry Jarrett met with WWE officials this morning in Stamford, Conn., and he was not alone.

By Jarrett's side throughout his meetings with Vince McMahon and John Laurinaitis (Vice President of Talent Relations for WWE) was a 6-foot-6, 310 pound monster of a man called Oleg Prudius.

"I know they were both impressed with Oleg, as is anyone that meets him," said Jarrett as he left WWE Headquarters Friday afternoon. "He's an exceptional person and a special athlete."

So with Jarrett's backing, is Prudius on his way to WWE Superstardom?

"He's a future prospect who is very interested in WWE," said Laurinaitis after meeting with Jarrett and Prudius. "He comes from a very highly-regarded amateur background. And hopefully, if things work out on both sides, we can maybe do business together."

WWE Referee FIRED!

referee Brian Hebner has been fired by WWE. No details have been revealed as to why he was let go. It should be noted that Brian has had some behavior issues in the past. Earl and Dave Hebner coming under hot water from WWE management back in the summer and then being subsequently fired probably didn't help matters. WWE is now Hebner-less for the first time since the 80's.

I agree with that statement, but for some reason Vince likes those guys with the limited moves as the champion, look at the greatest WWE champion of all time Hulk Hogan, he had what three moves? But unlike Hogan batista has no charisma which really hurts him, so puttting him in a tag team would be a great move, or a stable, because when he and Flair teamed up he was interesting, the same can be said when he was part of Evolution, but now he is quite boring, but I don't really know what he has been up to lately because I don't watch Smackdown.

Also, reader John Valles passed some more information about Prudius on to me. He found a little bio on him from USKBA.com, which is The United States Kickboxing Association's website. Apparently, WWE has had interest in Oleg Prudius since 2002.

Shane Helms has responded to remarks made by Buff Bagwell yesterday. Bagwell talked about the fight the two had several years ago. On Helms' website he decided to answer Buff and included a few choice remarks: "I'm not sure why after 4 years that the Balding, Bloated, Buff Bagwell keeps telling that ridiculous lie about what happened in the little skirmish that we had. Maybe it's his "demons" talking up again. Ain't it funny how when people become total losers it's always because of some "demons?" LOL Either way it comes off to me like a desperate attempt for attention. Maybe ole Judy ain't patting him on the back as much anymore, whatever. I just want my friends and fans to know, although most already do, that his version of the story is very jaded much like his opinion of himself. There's a reason he's unemployed. Must suck not to have any coat tails to ride on anymore!"
