wow that was a shock.......................................WHO DIDN'T SEE THAT COMING A MILE A FUCKING WAY!! damn shame
THE WRESTLING THREAD: HHH KEEPS DOING HHH THINGS.....
- Thread starter ArsenalCannon357
- Start date
Because they knew he was coming back
Yeah but it happened with Orton's pick,Big Show,Del Rio,etc. I just used Cena as an example.
"ya'll need to shut up with that 'WHAT'!!"
i think they stealing from the Pope/Samoa Joe feud on TNA
Lord Vicious
Rising Star
wrestling is becoming more and more predictable.I guessed the first 3 picks
(as i was talking to my girl)and was right.
(as i was talking to my girl)and was right.
didnt think JR hit Cole that hard..
1. Lame attempt at trying to be shocking (Cena drafted 2x in one night) And his exit promo was typical cena bad
2. Truth is a great heel but anyone who saw him in TNA would've already known that.
3. Mccool can't act for shit, she's just plain awful.
4. Orton looked stupid with that fucking beard
5. Big Show (To quote miz) REALLY?
6. Kofi is once again on the same roste rwith the man that killed his push.
7. No more drafts because the brand extension should've died back in 05.

Seriously, who do they think wants to actually watch this match? They know the Wrestlemania match was a piece of shit, why keep it going like the 2nd match will be better?
Well it sure as hell better be shorter.
I'm talking "Grand Opening, Grand Closing" short. Diva match short. 3-3.5 minutes tops.
Swagger takes down King and JR, Cole starts beating JR down, King makes the save, gets the whip, wins the match, JR chases Cole up the ramp, knowing Vince Mcmahon, Cole will probably be in his draws. The End.
That R Truth heel turn is greatness. I'm shocked they actually built on last week. With the acquisition of Del Rio it looks like Truth is going even further down the totem pole. I got Miz, Del Rio and CM Punk in front of him right now. I sort of got excited about Cena and Orton both going to Smackdown. But it striked me odd as shit to see Cena being the first one drafted. In the back of my mind i'm thinking alright somehow he's gonna end up back on Raw. I didn't know he could get drafted twice otherwise I would've seen that shit coming. Shit was gay. My problem is not with Orton or Cena. Its the WWE or whoever pushes them. Its like they want us to hate these guys.
That MArk Henry heel turn was much needed for him. WWE can't seem to do anything worth a damn with faces.
I was hoping to see Sin Cara and Rey stay on the same brand but I knew that wasn't likely.
For those who complain about the draft/brand extension, remember it is a good thing that it exists. Without it, a good portion of the roster simply wouldn't get used on either of their 2 main shows. The problem is the fact the WWE doesn't stick with it. What difference does it make what show Cena is drafted to when you can see him on either show anyway? If they would just stick to certain people ONLY appear on certain shows, and joint shows during certain PPVs it would be much more effective. And for those who are about to reply with, "But, Cena draws too much money to regulate him to one show," I don't care who kids are paying to see. 
Anyway, the WWE as a whole is becoming too frustrating to watch. I'll stick around one more year to see Rock/Cena, and then I'm done with the current WWE product (I'll still watch older stuff, and buy their DVD collections however). But way too much exciting/refreshing stuff in companies like Chikara for me to sit through so much frustration anymore. And TNA, despite the talent on the roster, had become a idiot booking cesspool.

Yep. I've never understood that either.
He's back with Michael Hayes so he'll probably get booked as a monster again.
.
Don't count on Punk. His deal is up and he hasn't re-signed so he's being deemphasized until he does or he leaves.
The Truth segment was good but it was kind of long.

Nothing to disagree with there.
Then I expect to have to give you updates on WWE/TNA stuff for the foreseeable future. I don't see either company making any changes. Vince and Kevin Dunn like the current product and Dixie is unerringly loyal to Vince Russo and has bought in to Hulk and Bischoff.
terrible - maybe batista and brock will come back now
I would agree with this except the main complaint with the WWE continues to be that they keep the same guys on top, and they still pay absolutely no attention to the midcard. Back in the Attitude Era everyone from top to bottom had a storyline and that was b4 the brand extension. The problem wasn't that they had so many wrestlers they needed to split them up, the problem was they started to let their top stars have 40 to 60 minutes of airtime
ex: HHH ridiculously long promos every monday.
Today's draft selections:
Daniel Bryan to SmackDown
Jack Swagger to Raw
The Great Khali to SmackDown
Jimmy Uso to SmackDown
Daniel Bryan to SmackDown
Jack Swagger to Raw
The Great Khali to SmackDown
Jimmy Uso to SmackDown
Saw the Bryan & Swagger moves coming.
Uso is gonna get fired soon.
Since Christian is gonna get the title at Extreme Rules, maybe it's best to turn back into an heel. They don't have a main event heel on the roster unless Barrett gets shot into the title picture. I wish Rey would had gotten Rey's spot instead or even Big Show. Hate to see him have to work under Orton. Would have been a good setup for a rivalry after he defeated Sheamus.
The Attitude writers are gone and they're weren't the only game in town then as they are now. Without the extension, a lot of people, and not necessarily the ones you hate, will be out of work.
Yep.
Both Usos have been moved to Smackdown as has Ted Dibiase and Nattie.Curt Hawkins has gone to Raw so maybe him and Ryder reunite.
Curt Hawkins hasn't been fired yet???? Good for him. Good wrestler.
Maybe Ted can find himself like Cody did. I remember when Cody got sent to SD and Ted kept on Raw and it looked like Ted was about to make a move. HAH! Fooled us.
The flaw in the BE is that in splitting up the roster you made both brands weak. They could've kept everyone together and just not have them appear on both shows all the time. There were times back in the day when taker hhh stonecold etc would appear on raw and not smackdown and vice versa.
They moving people around like they're about to actually use them. 
Raw gets:
Kofi
Masters
Hawkins
McIntyre
JTG
Kelly Kelly
Swagger
Smackdown gets:
Usos and Tamina
Tyson Kidd
Dibiase
Natalya
Regal
A. Fox
Yoshi
Bryan
Raw gets:
Kofi
Masters
Hawkins
McIntyre
JTG
Kelly Kelly
Swagger
Smackdown gets:
Usos and Tamina
Tyson Kidd
Dibiase
Natalya
Regal
A. Fox
Yoshi
Bryan
I thought William Regal had retired ?
Since Swagger has moved to Raw will Cole start kissing his ass as much as he did The Miz ?
They are setting up Smackdown to be Randy Orton's show with the moves that has been made. Does this mean he will be in a feud with Dibease and Rhodes soon ?

So Raw will use Kofi,Swagger and McIntyre,Kelly Kelly gets the honor of being the first diva destroyed by Kharma.Michael Cole probably(hopefully) becomes a manager.JTG definitely gets future endeavored unless they put him with Truth and Hawkins may be though I hope not.
Bryan and Dibiase should definitely get chances on Smackdown while Regal and Tatsu might.And I have no clue what happens with Tyson Kidd or the Usos.And maybe Fox and Layla get paired up.
MAJOR NAME SAID TO BE EYEING WWE EXIT, COMPLETE DETAILS
by Mike Johnson @ 10:23 AM on 4/26/2011
As we initially reported last night in the PWInsider.com Elite section, former WWE World champion CM Punk has not signed a new WWE deal and there's been a lot of talk that Punk is looking to exit the company when his deal expires in a few months.
Internally, that possibility has been discussed for some time but during the European tour, discussion of Punk's exit came more and more to the forefront.
According to WWE sources, Punk has been offered a new long-term deal but has balked at signing, citing burnout with being on the road for years and unhappiness with his position in the company over the last year.
As one source pointed out, Punk has been something of an "Iron Man" for the company, working full-time on the road with the exception of his hip injury needing to be rehabbed last year. At the same time, despite delivering with whatever was handed to him creatively, Punk has watched as other talents developed since he debuted ended up pushed as bigger names and treated as more important than Punk, including Miz and Alberto Del Rio.
"When you look at how the company brands it's characters, Punk is never among the top 5-8 names that are promoted or pushed," said the WWE office source. "It's Cena, Orton, Miz, Undertaker, Rey, now Alberto, etc. these days and Punk is sort of floating right under there. He didn't fit into the youth drive a few months back but he's not treated like a top veteran either. He's just there, doing his job and while everyone knows he delivers, he's never really treated like someone who does. He's never dropped the ball but we don't give it to him really, either. He's treated like a guy, but not THE guy. For a driven guy like him who's made wrestling his entire world, it's got to drive him crazy. Now, the excuse will be don't push Punk because he might be leaving, but the reality is the environment and situation is what is probably making him want to leave to begin with. Either it gets fixed or it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy, just like it did when Batista walked out."
As is the norm with such situations, a new deal could be struck at any point, but as more and more sources discuss Punk leaving the company as a distinct possibility, time will tell. We'll have more when we get it.

Punk's one of my favorite guys left but I hope he leaves or at least takes a break until they're ready to make him a top guy. Maybe it'll serve as a wake-up call for them to start pushing the right people.
Problem is that if he leaves where does he go? TNA would do him no good whatsoever and until ROH gets a TV deal him going there wouldn't be much of a choice either.
Damn I hate to see Alicia Fox has to work under Natalya. She has not beat Natalya yet
. Hopefully she will get the face turn I am so dreaming of
.
Truth, Kofi, and Henry
I just wish WWE did not dick over MVP so bad.

Yea I really wish there was a alternative out there. Someone has to step up because TNA isn't it. I personally think Punk re-signs. If not now sometime in the future. I think what kills Punk is he's a Main Event talent but his moves are limited to those of a cruiserweight. WWE loves those big ass stiff's and that's where Punk gets hurt. They're even pushing the shit out of that fake ass Batista nigga in Nexxus.
Shaemus and Bryan Danielson just look like Smackdown wrestlers. Good move moving them.
What kills him is that the WWE doesn't let him get the signature win that would put him over the top.Wouldn't let him beat Cena won't let him beat Orton.His moveset is on them because if you look at his ROH stuff he did alot more in the ring.Besides he has even hit Umaga with the GTS at some point..

If Punk were to leave what would they do with the Nexus ??? Have Otunga run it ?
