Love it. I'm a bit partial to this pic

aka the reason that the world didn't end.
 

Not bad. I do miss Blond Trish, but this Trish shows her age (she's 36). If she wants to go younger, she can go back to blond. But I guess her darker color represents a new chapter in her life, her post-wrestling career. There is no doubt in my mind that she's going into the WWE Hall of Fame. Whether or not its next year or sometime down the line, we don't know.

Also, its not like the WWE treated her all that badly. She's one of those former WWE Superstars that the WWE knows would never ever consider "the promotion formerly known as TNA." She's very loyal to the WWE and will remain so for the rest of her life.
 
From Lordsofpain.net

I'm going to take a wait and see approach before I condemn the whole angle but The best thing to do with Kharma is to KEEP IT SIMPLE. She's a monster heel...treat her as such.

Don't over complicate it by trying to give her some complex mental anguish and reasoning for what she's doing. She hates the other divas because they are pretty eye candy? Ok. Thats good enough. But don't force some complex reasoning for Kharmas purpose in WWE.

We didn't have to sit there and listen to stories of Vaders rage because other kids called him fat when he was young. Kharmas getting over because she's different. hopefully Vince doesn't feel the need to add his two cents to whats already working because of ego. Just let her do what she does best.

All that crap is really unnessecary. People want to watch her break Divas plain and simple. If Vince wants to add something to the story let's add some stretchers and wheelchairs to the mix to sell the injuries. Oh and Neck braces. Neck Braces are awesome.

This is wrestling, not Literature. We don't need subtext we need ass-kicking.
 
Yeah, Idk why Vince felt the need to change Kharma's angle. She was coming off as a newer(and actually interesting) version of Jazz.
 
Kharma and her angle was working and it was working very well. Not only that but it was an angle so simple it damn near wrote itself every week so of course Vince had to go and **** that up.


Btw I nominate ''Siiiiilent rage -The Wrestling Thread'' for the new title.

Vince needs to really step aside and let Triple H run things from here on in. He probably thinks Cole/lawler was good and wants to book a God vs. Cena match for Summerslam.

Knowing Vince, he'll probably have it to where Cena is God.
 
I agree. It's wayy past time for Vince to step aside.
 
Cena will no sell god and make god say I QUIT lol.

It'd be just like Cena to no sell God's wrath. Then Vince will challenge God to a match...oh wait :doh:

I hate Kharma. She is fat, ugly, bland, and boring. Too much time was wasted on her last night, and she sucks as a heel too. Imo, she has zero charisma. However, they seem to be doing something interesting with her story wise and her theme isn't awful either.

Speaking of a WWE diva, is anyone else sick of Kelly Kelly's stupid theme? Alex Riley beating the crap out of The Miz was great.

To reply to Trish's age - yea she might look like she's about 40, but she looks like an incredibly hot 40 year old. If only when I'm 40 I could have a wife that looks half as good as that.

Also Phatman: "This is wrestling, not literature. We don't need subtext, we need ass kicking"

100% correct, my friend. 100% correct. That goes for all wrasslin' story arcs, not just this one.

But god damn the Kharma thing was going so good and now they are gonna ruin it.

Former Creative Writer Rips WWE Over Randy Savage Tribute Video On Raw
By Daniel Pena
May 24, 2011 - 12:58:18 PM

Former WWE creative writer Chris DeJoseph (a/k/a Big Dick Johnson), who worked alongside Vince McMahon from 2005 through 2010, ripped his former employer over last night's Randy Savage tribute video on Raw. He feels it's hypocritical that WWE would sing the Macho Man's praises after he had been ostracized from the organization during the final years of his life.

Pointing the finger of blame to Vince McMahon, DeJoseph wrote on Twitter, "Vince is steaming watching this Macho Man package.

"Only in death Macho Man was allowed back on WWE TV. Such a shame. Such hypocrisy makes me sick."

He continued, "I was always told never to mention the name Macho Man EVER!"

DeJoseph then recalls pitching Savage for a storyline years ago and being told to never mention his name again.

"We pitched Macho Man and then we were told never to mention his name again because it was "personal," he wrote.

Wrestling Observer editor Dave Meltzer reported years ago that whenever someone on the writing staff pitched an idea to McMahon about bringing Savage back to WWE, he would immediately get angry and shoot the idea down flat. One day, however, head SmackDown writer Michael Hayes pitched an angle about Savage. Instead of giving his usual angry, expletive-laden response, McMahon peered off into the distance, collected his thoughts and said, "I do not want to do business with that man."




Savage & McMahon's Falling Out Explained By WWE Legend
By Michael Bluth
May 24, 2011 - 12:03:47 PM

One of "The Macho Man" Randy Savage's greatest rivals from the 80's, George "The Animal" Steele, was on Busted Open with Doug Mortman and Dave LaGreca, which airs Mondays and Wednesdays at 2-4 PM ET on Sirius 92 and XM 207.

"That's been said a lot of different ways, and there's been a lot of different things said that are not true necessarily."

"I think that what happened with Randy, when his career was winding down with the WWF, Vince McMahon just loved Randy," he continued. "After all everything Randy had done and he took him under his wing, and he wanted Randy after the ring was over with for him, he wanted him to be our spokesperson. He was traveling with Vince all the time. Randy was almost like a son, they were really tight. And then one day, we were at a TV meeting, and we got word that Randy, without calling Vince, had left and jumped to the WCW."


"I had never seen Vince McMahon broken before, he was crushed. It hurt him big time and I don't think he ever got over that. I think that's the real problem to be honest with you. I heard all this other stuff that I think is garbage when it comes to Randy and relationships with daughters and all that stuff... I don't think that's anywhere's close to the truth."

Jimmy Hart Comments On The Relationship Between Randy Savage & Hulk Hogan
By Daniel Pena
May 24, 2011 - 11:47:06 AM

WWE Hall of Famer Jimmy Hart, a long time colleague of "Macho Man" Randy Savage, appeared on Busted Open with Doug Mortman and Dave LaGreca, which airs Mondays and Wednesdays from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. on Sirius 92 and XM 207. Highlights from his interview are as follows:

Hart on how is the Poffo family holding up in the wake of Randy’s passing?: "I think since three days since it happened, pretty darn good. Lanny’s always been great. I think what they decided to do too, because I got so many calls from everybody wondering where the funeral is going to be... I know you know it by now too, going to be cremated of course. His ashes are going to be spread on his property. Now, the reason I’m saying this, and its already out there anyhow... Lanny confirmed it too... where his dog Hercules passed away and was buried.

"I think just a little private deal is going to be for Randy’s family, I don’t think he wanted something very very big and that’s kind of the way he was. When he did charities, he never went out there and told people about it or anything and I think donations are going to be sent in in his name are going to be in Tampa for one of the children’s foundations here. I think they’re doing pretty well for it just happening three or four days ago."

Hart on the relationship between Randy Savage and Hulk Hogan: "I don’t think it was as bad as sometimes people make it out to be because in the wrestling business, there’s always a little angle right around the corner where people can work together and make a ton of money. I think it ended up pretty well. I think when Hulk was going in to the hospital for one of his operations with his back, Randy happened to be at the same place. He stepped in to the room, said hello to Hulk and everything else.

"At the end, everything was pretty well being put back together again. Sometimes people make more of it than what it really is sometimes but being on this end and hearing a little bit of the scuttlebutt here and there, it was almost like a big wrestling angle. Randy was great, there will only be one Macho Man ever ever, colorful and did some great things nobody ever really knew about because he was so private."
 
I think this death probably hit Vince hard. If those rumors are Vince was mad that a person really close left without warning. It sucks that they never got over their differences.
