Mignon, well basically in reality, leaving the kayfabe behind, Ric Flair did in fact reportedly call Foley a "glorified stuntman". In response, I remember Bret Hart in his column at the time then proceeded to lay the smack at Flair for using the same ring routine in all of his matches.
Besides, the idea of Flair being the "wrestler" against the massive blob of a brawler of Foley....hey, for a PPV mid-card fight, it should be decent enough heat for it.
Doesn't anyone think its ODD that the whole D-X "reunion" happened with a whole hour left to go in the program?
Fuck, even the "finale" of Cena beating up those ECW guys(though really, I can't take him laying out Justin Credible of all people with ease.) had at best 25% of the buzz and crowd pop as the "reunion".
Better yet, who read that supposed report that WWE's brass actually believed that Cena was the biggest reason why the WWE/ECW special last week had good rating numbers? Really, I guess the same geniuses behind the XFL are using this logic. :rolleyes:
Anyway, my predictions of SMACKDOWN! possibly being "merged" with RAW by the WWE might be coming ahead. The "magazines" of RAW and SMACKDOWN! have been halted, with a simple WWE rag to cover both. Ummm....
Man, at the ECW PPV the other night, my new favorite sign:
"If Cena wins, We Riot"
Considering some of the faithful, that isn't an empty threat.

Well, Flair's body does make me wince.
However, who remembers that RAW match many many many months back with Flair and Angle? While Angle is truely a wrestling machine, and Flair about as convincing as the President and "Mission Accomplished", they still did a good match overall, or at least much more interesting than one would think.
Better yet, that ladder match where RVD won the "title shot/money in the bank" gimmick, Flair did better than expected to me, especially in such a thing as a Ladder Match of all things.
I saw the replay of Cena's match with RVD at the ECW PPV, and I tell ya, the heat in that building was insane. Besides the now-legendary "If Cena Wins, We Riot" sign, I loved it when Cena threw his shirt into the crowd, and some dude who caught it threw it back. Whatever it was scripted or not, it was good storytelling.

You got that right.  He should wear a t-shirt when he wrestles.

ECW will be on the Sci-Fi channel for only 12 or so weeks, which then according to plan, it'll jump to the USA Network.
So far, its not bad. I mean Sandman, drunk and dangerous as always, took out "The Zombie" in 5 seconds, though I wonder if that silly shit was like a slap at the WWE with their cartoonish nonsense.
Though Angle wrestling with Justin Credible for 4 minutes was disapointing. Really, I thought ECW was supposed to bring 15-minute matches for our pleasure, instead of cheap pops for some WWE PPV.
