THE WRESTLING THREAD: BROCK LESNAR HAS ENTERED THE CHAT!!!

chrislee said:
Kinda surprised no one has posyed anything about Barrets group on Smackdown. Looks like WWE didn't entirely screw up the story between Puck & Barrett, I hope they have some type of feud between the two groups ( i'll perfer to see the two groups agints each other rather than having a Taker vs Barrett an Mania ). I'm glad Ezekiel Jackson is back as a heel, I always hate seeing faces that are muscle like super heroes getting beat down grounded in a match.

The problem is that the WWE doesn't seem to like putting heels against one another.That's why everyone knew that Orton was going to win the steel cage #1 contenders match because the other 2 opponents were both heels.So I doubt that they let the 2 fight unless everything else doesn't work out(i.e. Taker doesn't get healthy in time,Cena gets hurt & is out). Besides if they fight than somebody is gonna have to job and therefore won't be built up which means that somebody will have to suffer at the hands of Otunga for instance.And personally I'd rather see these guys get a push.

Yep. WWE apparently ruined it for some of them and they left the business. Mike Sanders must have burned bridges with a lot of people. He was only a okay wrestler but he was a good talker and could have been used somewhere.
As of now, Mark Jindrak is in Mexico and will probably be with on Lucha Libre USA when it comes back on MTV2. Rellik's on there as well. That's it.

"Above Average" Mike Sanders was gold on the mic, that's all he really needs to do is be the mouth piece. Man fuck Vince McMahon greedy ass for fucking up wrestling with the WCW Purchase.:angry:
Fuck Bishoff for not learning from his past mistakes. TNA needs to use the X-Division the way WCW used the Luchadores, beef up the division with quality guys, and kick off Impact and the PPV's with them. Make the X-Division title mean something again. Since the TV tittle is basically the TNA version of the US tittle, make the holder the number 1 contender to the World Title. Once again, you increase the value of the title, and you have a more important mid card group. Stop fucking up the Knockouts division by letting talent go. They don't want them to be "Divas" then stop letting your workers leave, you have singles and tag team tittles, how you gonna pull that off with 5-6 women :cmonson: TNA can be fixed, they just have to want to do it.
 
I was expecting Skip Sheffield but I guess they decided on Mason Ryan instead.I heard that the WWE viewed him as a new Batista but I had no clue how much he resembles him.

Damn they make Punk look like a psychopath.Good move.

They should push it more consistently. This year alone they built it a little but then Shannon Moore walks into the company and into a title match. Good wrestler, bad build. Then Doug Williams and Brian Kendrick could have had a great series but they gimmicked it up. Robbie E did pretty much the same thing as Moore and got a title shot with no build up.
You would think with the way he built the WCW cruiserweight division, Eric Bischoff would help them with the X-Division. Guess not.

I always thought they should put the TV title on one of their best guys, like AJ, and let him defend in 7-8 minute matches every week on Impact! Every single week, AJ would be defending the title so you're guaranteed at least one good match per show.

Stop fucking up the Knockouts division by letting talent go. They don't want them to be "Divas" then stop letting your workers leave, you have singles and tag team tittles, how you gonna pull that off with 5-6 women :cmonson: TNA can be fixed, they just have to want to do it.

They should dump the tag titles. Before with Kong dominating the singles, they might have had enough talent and enough focus to pull off the tag titles but not now.
Keep pushing Sarita and bring back Daffney.
It might help TNA if they stop having gimmick matches on free tv and then having the same guys wrestle a standard match on ppv. That's ass backwards. AJ and Williams wrestle an Ironman match on Impact! but were scheduled for a regular match at Genesis. Huh?

Sheffield must still be hurt. With 40 men in the Rumble this year (total, complete bullshit and it means there will only be 60-90 second intervals between guys), he may make it back for that.
 
Excerpts from recent Kaval interview

KAVAL DISCUSSES HIS WWE DEPARTURE, POLITICS, WHY HE ASKED FOR HIS RELEASE AND MUCH MORE
by Steven Fernandes @ 9:20 PM on 1/19/2011

The former Kaval, Low Ki has an interview with Slam Wrestling talking about his time in the WWE
Some highlights:

On his release: "I asked for my release, both WWE and myself agreed that it would be best if we didn't continue doing business together at this current time. They had no path for me or any plans in the near future so instead of wasting my time and my body for them, I decided it was time to move on. I've had a good relationship with them [WWE] the entire time I was there regardless of what people may think. I have always had strong relationships everywhere I have gone; there are no bad feelings from either end."

Working for WWE: "It was never a goal of mine; a lot of people misunderstand that. Simply because the WWE is the biggest company in the world, it was never my dream. I'm sure for others they have always wanted to go to WWE but for my personal goal it was always to go to Japan and to be accepted by the Japanese culture as a competitor. WWE was just a bonus for everything I have worked so hard for in my 13 years in this business."

Disappointment with his treatment in WWE: "WWE is a very big political game, and I already knew what the environment entailed, if you play that political game you stand a much better chance of succeeding in a particular role or position. I'm not a politician; I don't see the need in playing these games especially when the business is suffering. I think the way they scheduled my matches on Smackdown, after NXT it was obvious they weren't behind me. I was chosen to win NXT season 2 by the fans, they wanted to see me do well and at first it seemed like the company wanted me to do well. People have to be very careful when they refer to the company not doing much with a certain talent. There is only one man who makes decisions, he says yes or no and that needs to be made clear. I'm not going to even mention his name but the company has their own view on who is going to be a star or not. If you don't fill in that particular prototype or that idea then you are going to have a more challenging time in regards to a push or trying to excel. I feel this was the case with me; they have always been more about bigger guys. The company could have been behind me a lot more. They also could be behind a lot of guys more

1. Unlikely.

2. Nope.

3. Batista is supposed to be trying MMA, same with Lashley. Booker and Sharmell had twins not too long ago and he's been negotiating with WWE off and on and could be back with TNA for a short run.

4. Not even a little.

Yes, now I see why. I concur.

Taker is getting near to retirement. His body is breaking down (I say it's partially due to steroid use as well as regular wear and tear).
Kane was just the champion on Smackdown and lost it to Edge.
Khali was doing promotional work in India and had some side projects. He sucks but with India a growing market, he's good with WWE.
I doubt they'll give HHH the belt but he's on the way back and he'll probably go over a couple of younger guys. He's on the Creative team officially now, so he's not too long for the ring either.
Shit was fake. Looks like they were shooting an angle but Dana White ain't having it. They had heat before but they're over it and are on good terms now.


And to answer your last question again:
Yes I see why and I agree :D
 
honestly they need a big ass shake up in all of televised wrestling

they should do something people don't grasp the new guys and its time for the "favorites" to retire

i remember when the tag titles actually meant something and the story lines were better.now everything is watered down for the younger ages. shit when we were young it was more violent than ever and i'm 31.

sighs damn i miss macho man, the ultimate warrior, the rock in his prime, stone cold steve austin,etc those dudes made for good tv.now all they do is dig up an expired legend have him lose to some new guy to up his record and next thing you know both are out of view.

As long as the WWE Creative is booking to impress a 60 yr old Vince McMahon instead of fans, there won't be much difference.
TNA's problem is their head writer sees the world too similar to Vince. He'd rather book a sitcome or something and not a pro wrestling show.
Check out ROH or Chikara (Deltronz' pick, I haven't seen it yet), or any Dragon Gate USA.

His son Shane left the company but Stephanie is in charge of creative in the WWE.
Sting's contract is up but there's a decent chance that he may be back soon which is why the WWE hasn't secured him for the Hall of Fame.
To the best of my knowledge the case with Kurt Angle is done.He's engaged to some other woman and has returned to active competition.

I agree 1,000 percent. The fans should have atleast 50% say in who should be stars. The fans deserve better than this sitcom shit with these long ass promo skits:smh:
Seeing you from nawlins you may be to young to remember your regional wrestling heritage being you from Nola. When ever you get sad and want classic shit click on youtube and watch oldschool midsouth wrestling. They used to pack the fucking superdome with Junkyard Dog vs. Hacksaw Butch Reed as the main event.

One a side note, I wish the WWE would adopt a regional formula for their shows. Just imagine WWE northeast, WWE southeast, WWE midwest, WWE great plains, WWE southwest, and WWE westcoast. Develop a regional market buy creating an hour long show. Then they could do an hour long show that updates the other regional action. That would be great for the fans because now they could develop a regional appeal like the territory days used to do.

Oh God. JYD was the biggest star MidSouth ever had. That dude was a superhero before he went to WWF, got fat, and his drug problem fucked him up.
His feud with Michael Hayes and the Freebirds was so hot, they took it to Georgia.
