I loathe and detest the gimmick that Vince and Stephanie have given Chavo.

 

Along with the "DDP Stalker" and "Boring Lance Storm" characters, this race-based character they have devised is a career killer for Chavo Guerrero who should find a way out of his contract and leave for Japan or TNA as soon as possible.

Shawn Michaels Apologizes To WWE Creative Team After Backstage Outburst

Date Added: September 21, 2005

Shawn Michaels continues to exhibit signs of a change in character from the brash young superstar of the nineties. After an outburst at the creative team at a recent production meeting, HBK individually apologized to each team member, something Michaels wouldn't have done ten years ago.

 

The reason for Shawn's outburst was because he was unhappy about coming out of a main event program with Hogan and then supposedly being demoted into a mid-card program with Chris Masters.

 

IMO - Shawn has absolutely nothing to apologize about

Over the past few months, on both RAW and Smackdown, The Big Show has tried to become more fan-friendly with the "jolly giant" grin and parade-like hand waving during his entrances to the ring.

 

WWE’s aim is to transform Big Show in to a novelty act to make special appearances, but not be confined to one specific program. PWTorch report that Show’s program with Snitsky may be one of his final as an "every week player" for the promotion.

 

It’s believed the company want to develop him into an Andre the Giant act, but Andre had much more of an aura and history of domination than Big Show possesses. Show’s recent comedy acts and string of lacklustre programs gives him an uphill battle to reach Andre's statue.

 

Using the Big Slow as a novelty act is a great idea. I think the best use for the Big Slow would be to mount the Titantron on his butt and have him stand at the top of the ramp with it throughout the show. I can't see any other use for him... :lol:

Breaking: Major Former WWE Names Sign With TNA

Date Added: September 21, 2005

Story By: Ben Johnson

In an announcement on its official website, TNA Wrestling confirmed the acquisition of the tag team once known as The Dudley Boyz. According to the article, the duo signed a multi-year contract with the number two national wrestling promotion.

 

"We see TNA as the future of wrestling," Devon told TNAwrestling.com. "They have a lot of amazing talent that are ready to step up and revolutionize this business. We thought we had done it all in tag team wrestling until we saw TNA Wrestling. Now, we begin a new chapter in our careers. The NWA World Tag Team Titles are one prize we haven't held yet, so we're both really excited about joining TNA."

 

While noting that they would be showing up on a future episode of TNA iMPACT, the release did not explicitly confirm an appearance on the Spike TV debut. That is expected, however.

 

This is Great News. The Dudleys should do great at TNA!

[HRH The KING 0]

Shawn Michaels should not have apologised. He is totally right. Having to get over a lumbering moron like Chris Masters who is pushed simply because he has "Lots- And-Lots-Of-Muscles", or as Jim Ross likes to say ad nauseum "Bah Gawwwd Keeeng, Dat Der Iz A Reeeeel HOSS!!!!!"

 

The Big Show is a disgrace and unless he loses weight and gets down to around 350 pounds, he is a worthless slob who is wasting his superhman natural abililties.

 

I wish the Dudley Boyz all the best success in TNA.

i dont know if anyone saw one of the newer commercials about wwe's jump to usa, but the one where they are sitting around the table and vince says theyre moving is hilarious. when kurt throws the box out the window and then the ref falls out of it...funny. then hhh sayin are we there yet, just out of the driveway...funny. this is what wwe should be like. simple, yet effective

[HRH The KING 0]

Yeah that's a decent promo.

 

I haven't bothered reviewing WWE Monday Night RAW for the last week or so, because it makes no sense to do it until they move back the USA. They seem to be just killing time until they make the move.

 

When they move over to USA, massive improvements are needed.

 

I've all but given up on WWE SmackDOWN. It's been terrible for months.

WWE Homecoming will have Mick Foley in the Piper's Pit

 

It seems as though the only time that Mick Foley shows up these days is to promote a new book he's written. Otherwise, he wouldn't be there. I hope Piper beats Foley over the head with his book and feeds him the pages ala Snuka.

[Kor37 9]

Shawn Michaels vs. HBK in a 30 minute Iron Man match has also been added.

 

Sounds like an interesting match. Talk about a split personality!....

[HRH The KING 0]

Shawn Michaels vs HBK?

 

WOW!!!!!! :lol: :P

 

 

I hope Piper kills Foley in a bagpipe related homicide.

Big TNA News: Samoa Joe Plans, Nash vs. Hardy, New Match, More

Date Added: September 24, 2005

Story By: Ryan Clark

Abyss vs. Sabu vs. Rhino vs. Jeff Hardy in a No DQ Anything Goes Monster's Ball 2 match has just been added to the Bound for Glory Card. This card is huge as they also have a 30 minute Iron Man match featuring AJ Styles and Christopher Daniels as well as an Ultimate X match (wires hanging above the ring) featuring Matt Bently, Chris Sabin, and Petey Williams. Jushin Liger vs. Samoa Joe is also on the card.

 

Speaking of Samoa Joe, TNA has huge plans for him once they debut on Spike TV.

 

Jeff Hardy vs. Kevin Nash is being talked about for the next PPV following Bound for Glory. Raven could also be thrown into the mix.

 

Johnny Fairplay is re-signed with TNA as reported here but at this point he will not be appearing on Spike TV. They will start taping Xplosion matches prior to Impact! when they start the Spike TV tapings with Fairplay hosting.

 

 

Sounds like a great card but I don't know why TNA is wasting their time on Nash and Johnny Fairplay.

[HRH The KING 0]

Nash is a lazy bum.

 

He'd tear his quad just combing his hair.

The Rock's new movie "Doom" is coming out soon.

 

I wonder if he'll appear in the WWE to promote it?

[Kor37 9]

He better promote the heck out of it. I read where Hollywood is rapidly losing patience with him. Hes made a bunch of movies and they have all been flops.

[HRH The KING 0]

Yeah, they haven't been doing very well at all.

 

One of the problems I think is that he's simply making too many average movies instead of perhaps making a big quality movie once ever so often.

 

Without the WWE to promote his movies, they will struggle.

[carlito'sCool 0]

is there any word on usa network showing the dog shows on monday again, or will they switch it to another day? when wcw was on, they always won that week in ratings and i think they had some good matches at that time.

[HRH The KING 0]

Sadly WWE Monday Night RAW on USA will definately be pre-empted for the dog show.
