It could be a work. It's just odd that they would put it up on the site. I'd think they would announce it on Raw or something if it was a work.

As for Randy's theme, I just read that it was from a Killswitch album, so I'm looking for it now.

This whole Marty Janetty situation is very puzzling.

The Ghoul-

What happened with Paul Birchill?

The Ghoul-

What happened with Paul Birchill?

He told Regal that he was having a match next week, and that if he could, he'd make it against him. After he grabbed Regals tie and cut it in half with his knife, you could hear the crowd cheering in the back once he did so. Regal ran off saying that Burchill was crazy.

 

[The FallenAngel]

This pirate gimmick sounds really cool. Looking forward to Burchill in action.

 

[Sabretooth]

Angle/Taker was awesome from what I saw of it. I was also giggling like a little girl when Taker pulled off that sweet dragon sleeper. I haven't seen him do that move since WM 21. The ending, however, was crappy. It even looked like Henry was scared to jump.

How in the hell the Spanish announce table didn't break from him running on top of it,I'll never know.

 

[Eric Draven]

The pirate gimmick does have a Boogeyman-type vibe....except Burchill is a better wrestler than Boogey. The no worms are involved....yet


And anyone else think it was pretty funny that the Spanish Announce Table was the one table that wasn't destroyed at the end of SD this week?

Exactly what I said. When Henry was just walking back and forth like he was thinking,''Should I really do this?'' I told myself there is no way that table is going to hold up for this long. I'm suprised it didn't break when he started to run,as well.

The announcing table has been getting destroyed week after week,and it's usually from Angle slamming people through them.

 

[Eric Draven]

They probably totally reinforced the table. I swear, when I saw the SAT up again, I thought it would be the one that was going to be destroyed (like always). But somehow, it managed to stay intact....

Wrestlemania is really looking like crap this year.

 

[Go Web Go!]

Wrestlemania is really looking like crap this year.

But then again...it's been like that for a number of years (with only a few bright spots here & there)

 

[TheVileOne]

But then again...it's been like that for a number of years (with only a few bright spots here & there)

Last year you at least had Kurt Angle vs. HBK. A dream match to be sure. A match we had all wanted to see for years, at certain points we'd never thought we'd see but became a reality.

There is NO such match this year.

20, you had Eddie vs. Angle, Benoit/HHH/HBK, Evoltion vs. Rock n Sock, and Christian vs. Jericho. 4 awesome matches, two MOTYC's all on one show. Best mania ever.

 

[Go Web Go!]

Yeah. Just doesn't have the same ''feel'' as past WM's, that's for sure.

-We have 2 of the top stars in HBK & Undertaker taking on Vince (who IS NOT a wrestler) and Mark Henry (see Vince)

-Triple H vs. Cena is a Backlash main event. Not a WM main event.

-Money in the Bank: Meh. Not interested in seeing Ric Flair in a ladder match. Seeing RVD win it would be a good thing for the WWE though.

-Triple Threat: Not bad, but I would have preferred a traditional 1 on 1 match. Has potential.

Foley vs. Edge: The fact that it's a hardcore match makes it interesting. Won't help convince me to buy WM.

Like I said, nothing special. Hopefully they'll make something with the time they have and build it up some more.

 

[LastSunrise1981]

This whole Marty Janetty situation is very puzzling.

One person on the Chris Jericho Board believes that it's a work.

If it's not a work I wonder what he did?

 

[TheVileOne]

-We have 2 of the top stars in HBK & Undertaker taking on Vince (who IS NOT a wrestler) and Mark Henry (see Vince).

There has never been one match with Vince McMahon that I truly liked or enjoyed. Other wrestling fans will disagree, but hey that's me.

-Triple H vs. Cena is a Backlash main event. Not a WM main event.

I think they should've just done HHH/Edge. It would've been a bit better. They could've figured something out with that thing.

-Money in the Bank: Meh. Not interested in seeing Ric Flair in a ladder match. Seeing RVD win it would be a good thing for the WWE though.

Carlito who proposed it isn't even in it. So what is he doing?

I'm disappointed this is what RVD is relegated to. He should be wrestling HBK. That's a Wrestlemania dream match right there.

-Triple Threat: Not bad, but I would have preferred a traditional 1 on 1 match. Has potential.

I just can't abide by how they came about the triple threat.

Foley vs. Edge: The fact that it's a hardcore match makes it interesting. Won't help convince me to buy WM.

It will probably be a good match, but really, what's the point? How much more does it elevate Edge? Especially after they clipped the wings off him as champion. The only reason he was champion was a last ditch effort to salvage John Cena as a face world champion.

Like I said, nothing special. Hopefully they'll make something with the time they have and build it up some more.

Nope, nothing special, just like Benoit/JBL.

This just looks like a very ho-hum Wrestlemania.

 

[Mister J]

Very disappointing end to an otherwise solid SD. I hope they don't plan on re-signing Henry once his deal is up in August (or whenever). I'm sure he's trying hard, but his top card status is laughable. Mania is really shaping up to be crap.

Wrestlemania 26

Paul Burchill vs. Shelton Benjamin for the WWE Title

(crossing fingers)

 

[TheVileOne]

I bet you Burchill will not even be in the company by the time WM 26 rolls around.

I remember at Wrestlemania 16, people said Bull Buchanan was going to be "main eventing Wrestlemania 20".

But he's not Cena's goofy friend... he's Regal's goofy friend.

Seriously I think, like a lot of things it is a weird transistion. It'll be funny when it lasts, but it's built on the sole fact he will eventually turn... he's their new Hurricane.

 

[Hunter Rider]

The SD side of WM22 has been booked as well as it possibly could have been given the loss of Eddie and the injury to Batista
The 3-way is the only solution they had for the WHC and Benoit/JBL should be an old style NWA stiff-fest between two former World champions that will elevate the US title after 2 years of neglect
Finlay is working miracles with Lashley by helping him work snug and use his power instead of looking nervous every time he hits the ring
Taker/Henry is better than the Taker/Boogeyman option

The RAW side is unforgivable nonsense,two of the main matches(Vince/HBK,HHH/Cena) are booked purely for the ego's of the two most powerful men in the company
Edge has been buried by HHH and yet his match with Foley is RAW's sole highlight this Mania
MITB-II always seemed like cop out booking to me and leaving Carlito out in favour of Flair is crazy

 

[Sarge 2.0]

As far as I know, the title to Randy's new music is " Fixation on the Darkness". See if you guys can find it on a filesharer from there.

 

[Hunter Rider]

The reason Marty was fired ????

 

[The FallenAngel]

Oh God, the images are coming back...

 

[DOG LIPS]

The reason Marty was fired ????

Yeah, thanks. I needed to see some Mcmanass this early in the morning.
