Cena won

I'm not sure what Rey gets for it, it's usually a title shot but I read somewhere that he's not going to get it.

Why on Earth did they have Edge take the title from Cena, if they were just gonna give it back 3 weeks later? They pretty much killed all the momentum they had been building for Edge.

They didn't give Edge enough time to carry the title. He was unable to prove himself as champ.

I'm glad that Rey Mysterio won the Royal Rumble, but I gotta think that it wouldn't have happened if Eddie Guerrero hadn't died. Rey Mysterio is one of the most gifted performers in the business (if not the most gifted), but Mysterio's stock has risen exponentially since the death of Guerrero. Mysterio is now more of an underdog than ever, and so, IMO, they gave him the Rumble.

I'm a huge mark for Rey Mysterio, so I hope he can pull off a title victory at WrestleMania.

I don't know what the WWE was thinking putting Mark Henry in the main event at the Rumble. Was Henry really the best they could do for Angle? Here's a hint to the SmackDown execs: PUT CHRIS BENOIT BACK IN THE MAIN EVENT PICTURE!!!!!

Here's my predicted card so far for WM21:

Mickey James vs. Trish Stratus (Women's Championship)

Rey Mysterio vs. Kurt Angle (World Championship)

John Cena vs. Triple H (WWE Championship)

It is my opinion that the "Money in the Bank" ladder match should be a mainstay at WrestleMania. Give another up and comer a chance at the top spot. Plus, it was a hell of a match at WM21.

Sorry Mig, but when I was watching wrestling on a regular basis, he was the HHH version on Smackdown. The guy NEVER lost (unless by count out or DQ) and never put other talent over. He would also use his "political power" in the back which I also dispise. I just got tired of seeing the guy on TV

Well the writers decided a couple days before NYR to give Edge the belt becasue Cena was getting booed pretty good the few weeks leading up to that. I still think they should have waited till WM and had a triple threat w/ HHH Cena and Edge.

Also on Rey Rey, there are talks that he might not even main event WM which is totally crap beacuse he is the most over wrestler in the WWE and has been even before Eddie's death.

Speaking on WM, I would love to see Shelton vs. RVD in a ladder match for the Intercont. belt, that match would own

I'm getting tired of watching Vince strut to the ring. If I see that again I just might puke. What is this riff all about with Vince and HBK? I think that Mickey James needs some serious mental help. Why can't Trish tell her what she can do like Ashley did tonight? Shelton's mama just cracks me up. That Golddust is freaky. I'm glad that the show and Kane kept their belts. I did miss hearing you suck to Angle

I love the Vince strut. I think vince should win a tv award for his acting on the show.

DS

Hey DS,

Since we are not allowed to talk politic's at the conventions maybe we can talk about wrestling huh?

Sounds good to me! By the way who is the New General Manager of Raw?

DS

Great DS As for the Raw GM. I don't think they have one. Maybe XDCX or DMC knows for sure.

PS. While we are talking about wrestling maybe we can slip some How I like Bush into the conversation

I think Vince is just taking over as GM, taht's as much as I know

ds

What is the next PPV?

DS

No Way Out on Feb. 19th

Is it just me or is HHH a fat man nowadays? He was once cut to threads but is now overflowing with blubber?

DS

No it's not just you, he has so much fat hanging over the side of his tights its not even funny.

Batista was looking pretty flabby before he left to have surgery. He couldn't work out because of a torn muscle in his back, though.

Then again, Batista will be 40 this year, so he's getting up there in years (for a professional wrestler).

The same thing happened with Brock Lesnar after he won the WWE Championship.

Randy Orton used to be pretty cut, too. Then he became World Heavyweight Champ.

I guess once you become champ, you don't have anything else to prove. That's especially the case with HHH, him begin a 11 or 12 time World Champ.

Batista will be 40!? Are you f'n kidding me?? Wow, I had NO idea he was that old. I FINALLY TiVoed Raw tonight (I just had this "craving" to see it if you will). Some of the hightlights:

-I don't know how she does it but Trish looks more delicious every time I see her

-Maria is unbelievably cute

-Shelton Benjamin was trying not to crack up during his ma/Eugene sketch in the back

-The HHH/Flair match was the best of the night

-It was great not only to see RVD wrestle, but that he won, AND beat Carlito (I REALLY hate him)

-I couldn't believe I saw Mick Foley or 'Hacksaw' Jim Dugan

PS - Where/when is Hulk Hogan gonna come back? I'm gonna try to keep TiVoing Raw so I can stay up with it. If Smackdown doesn't discontinue JBL's push I will not watch it (anyone have any news on that?). I'm sorry but I hate JBL and the Undertaker.

Uh oh another male BB'er after Trish. DMC might not like that

Shelton's mama The look on her face after The Show said "Don't touch me"(or something to that effect)

I thought it was funny that Mickey wasn't to happy that Trish was going out with that guy.

What's up with Vince and HBK? Forceing him to retire next week.

BTW Raw is going to be on next Thursday night also.

Yeah I know, what's with USA? What's so pressing that they can't run Raw at it's regular time?

A dog show that they show every year

F'n dog show! It NEVER fails, every year with USA! No 1 f'n cares about a stupid dog show. Play RAW!

Enough people do that they stop Raw to play it :p

What dog show???

Every year there's some stupid national dog show that USA is so "compelled" to air and thus Raw gets bumped as a result. On an unrelated note, I watched TNA Wrestling last night and I hear that beginning in April, they're moving their show on Spike TV to Thursdays at 9PM EST (to compete with Smackdown I guess). I suggest some check it out. There's not a lot of "name" wrestlers (Jeff Jarrett, Christina, The Dudleys, Rhino) but the show's only an hour and entertaining

Speaking of TNA, at last night's PPV, Christian Cage (you know him as Christian from WWE) defeated Jeff Jarrett for the NWA World Heavyweight title.

The Rhino/Abyss match was absolutely insane. Rhino and Abyss were fighting up in the rafters. Then all of a sudden Rhino gored Abyss off the rafters, sending him crashing through 4 tables stacked on top of each other on the floor. I haven't seen anything like that since ECW.
--------------------------------------
Speaking of ECW, I still haven't received my DVD in the mail.

My girlfriend got me the Eddie Guerrero DVD for Valentine's Day (yea, I know, its a bit early). What a great DVD. The actual documentary special on there is rather short, but there are some incredible matches, and it also includes the "Los Guerreros Lie Cheat and Steal" vignettes that aired back during the Los Guerreros era.

My personal favorite match on that DVD is the 2 out of 3 falls Hair vs. Masks tag team match, pitting El Hijo del Santo and Octagon against Los Gringos Locos: Eddie Guerrero and "Love Machine" Art Barr. Lots of fast paced, high flying action. And this was before Eddie used the frog splash as his finisher. Art Barr was the one who patented and perfected the frog splash. After Art died, Eddie decided to use the frog splash in his memory.

Another incredible match on the 2nd DVD is the ladder match for the Intercontinental Champion, pitting Rob Van Dam against Eddie Guerrero. Probably the greatest ladder match I've ever seen, bar none.

The ECW "good-bye" match was a classic. Dean Malenko and Eddie were about to leave ECW for WCW, so they had one last match. They tore the house down in this classic Best 2 out of 3 falls match, ending in a tie. Malenko is too often overlooked when people discuss the greatest of all time. You got your Angles, Hart, Benoits, and Hogans, but watch a Dean Malenko match (especially if he's wrestling the likes of Benoit or Guerrero), and your views will drastically change. Malenko could wrestle someone like me and make me look good. That's how talented he is. Too bad he doesn't wrestle anymore.

All-in-all, a great DVD with a ton of great matches.

Glad to see Christain won the title last night. I kind of figured he would. Just a reminder tonight guys, NO Raw tonight because of that stupid dogshow Gotta wait 3 more days until Thursday

BTW - xxx, do YOU watch TNA?

Whenever I remember its on. It comes on at such a bad time. Thankfully its moving to Thursday nights this April.

I happened to be at a friend's house, and he ordered the TNA PPV last night. I didn't know half the people that were wrestling, but I was impressed. TNA is a lot faster paced, a lot more high impact, if you will.

TNA has a lot of great talent. I give em another year or two before they become a serious competitor to WWE (unless Vince buys em out before that).

Yeah TNA is more fast paced. I lik Samoa Joe, he's pretty bad a$$ and of course I LOVE the Dudleyz. I still have NO idea why they left the WWE or why the WWE let them go??

I cant wait to see this Thursday. Also AAO last night was a great PPV. I was so happy when Christian won the NWA belt. And to answer that, the WWE released the Dudley boyz, I dont remember why though.

Bret Hart is going to be inducted to the Hall of Fame, April 1st, the day before WM. ****End****
