CM Punk with the Macho man tribute.
Cool way of paying homage.I'm disappointed in how little the WWE has put into paying tribute to one of their greatest superstars.
CM Punk with the Macho man tribute.
i noticed that too.
It makes me wonder about the Macho man tribute...why did Vince still have the car accident skit with the Big Show still?
Vince stays mad!!!
Vince stays mad!!!
i was
at how del rio got out the car and dippedthe first backstage promo w/ them was funny,looked like they were re-enacting a scene from a tele-novela..all that was missing was the "tension" music in the background
I agree what a bad way to show homage to Macho. I was expecting more. I'm now convinced that Randy face fucked and analized Steph when she was 17. Even Vince is not that callous to forget one of the biggest stars to make the WWF what it was.
Ricardo Rodriguez was driving the car if I remember correctly.i was
the first backstage promo w/ them was funny,looked like they were re-enacting a scene from a tele-novela..all that was missing was the "tension" music in the background
Piper claimed last week that Savage slapped McMahon in a bar which is what is the cause of their problems.I still think that it's more than that. I didn't know that Nailz tried to whoop Vince's ass back in the day in Vince's office.
Half-assed tribute to Savage.
I turned it off when i saw cena walking out there with barely a limp going and truth saying he hates cena because his son loves him
As far as a macho man tribute fuck vinces bullshit tributes i have old wrestlemania, superstar, saturday night main event and nitro episodes i can watch to enjoy savages greatness.
As far as a macho man tribute fuck vinces bullshit tributes i have old wrestlemania, superstar, saturday night main event and nitro episodes i can watch to enjoy savages greatness.i'd have thought that it wouldve been for the entire two hours,where they show highlights from savage's matches and there'd be wrestlers paying tribute to him..
I turned it off when i saw cena walking out there with barely a limp going and truth saying he hates cena because his son loves him
me too...
How so?
I thought it was a pretty good Raw. They closed a lot of angles that needed closing and started up some new feuds.
I'm not sure what else you guys wanted them to do for Randy Savage. I thought it was a pretty good tribute. Its like you guys wanted them to dedicate the whole show to him which I personally wouldn't have had a problem with but shit the WWE has to keep on moving.
TNA could shit all over them right now by rehiring Jay Lethal
dude probably was in his Berserker persona..running back and forth outside the office going "HUSS!!! HUSS!!"
Bingo, they did it for benoit and we know how that turned out. At least with savage it doesn't seem like any wrongdoing occurred and the wife is expected to make a full recovery.
WWE/WWF/WWWF has always, always booked their faces as super strong except when they had really great workers on top like Bret, Shawn, and Savage.
Bruno was champ for 11 years of the first 13 years. Hulk beat everybody for years and didn't lose clean until they thought they had a suitable replacement. Austin beat up multiple dudes all the time and won multiple Rumbles and he beat everybody and the last good loss he took for a long time was the Mania XIII match with Bret.
Cena isn't on the level of the guys of any of those guys but he's Vince's boy and that's the way that company has always worked.
Sinclair Broadcast buys ‘Ring of Honor’ wrestling
May 23, 11:35 am EDT
BALTIMORE (AP)—TV station operator Sinclair Broadcast Group Inc. said Monday that it has bought the “Ring of Honor” wrestling franchise and will start showing matches on its stations in September.
That would make Ring of Honor the only U.S. wrestling federation with a “major, multi-market presence” on broadcast TV, the company said.
Ring of Honor produces weekly TV wrestling programs and holds events around the country, some of which are sold on DVDs or on the Internet on a pay-per-view basis.
Steve Marks, chief operating officer of Sinclair’s television group, said the deal gives Sinclair multiple revenue streams, such as advertising, product sponsorships, Internet pay-per-view, live wrestling tour events and sales of DVDs and other merchandise.
Sinclair owns 58 television stations in 35 markets, most of them in the eastern half of the U.S., as well as Texas, Oklahoma and Nevada.
Sinclair said it may eventually syndicate Ring of Honor wrestling to broadcasters outside its markets.
“Television and professional wrestling have a long history of successful partnerships and driving viewership,” Marks said. “Unfortunately, the broadcast networks have not protected that relationship, allowing professional wrestling to migrate to cable network distribution.”
Sinclair said Ring of Honor’s previous owner, Cary Silkin, will stay with the company in an advisory role. Financial terms were not disclosed.
Shares of Sinclair fell 32 cents, or 3.1 percent, to $10.04 in midday trading Monday amid a broader market decline. The stock has traded in the 52-week range of $5.25 and $13.07.

Austin worked because people believe that if a dude is drunk enough and surly enough that he could probably whoop a gang of sober people by himself
FANTASTIC news for ROH and long overdue

He had some points like the kofi thing which is a permanent black eye on ortons career imo, but this dude looks like he has some issues. One thing i couldn't help but notice were the posters, when i turned 18 those came down
I gave my figures to my little cousin but kept an undertaker one because broads find them funny.

Good point. I just don't think it would've made the tribute that much better honestly. But I guess it depends on how high you view Savage. He's was BIG for me growing up but I didn't expect him to get much more than what he got.
