wwe vs tnt anyone watching?

Missed Raw.


what?! really, really, really. :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:
I cannot begin to contemplate this post. It has stumped me.

So, that face choke thingy Kane did was interesting. Maybe he's adding a new submission move. Ziggler's being robbed at the moment; between the title loss and the tag loss on Raw, it's killing dead the momentum of possibly the most gifted wrestler in the E. I'd have given him the pin in that match, maybe on Bryan.
 
Damn shame, he was brilliant. The WHC's had real lack of solid, deserving reigns and Henry's was shaping up to be a good one.

I'll tell you something I hate; the face/heel team positioning in tag matches. Faces always furthest away from the camera so we can see the beaten down one struggle to get to the corner. It's predictable.
 
Looks like much to no one's surprise that Kevin Nash has been written off television again and they're using injuries sustained from the sledgehammer as the reason why. He is expected to be gone for six weeks. Which means that if they want to use him again, it could be at the Royal Rumble. I seriously have no idea why he was brought in in the first place other than to give him one last match against one of his best friends which really served no purpose because creative dropped the ball.
 
Without being on tv every week hyping the feud leading to the match the whole Nash/HHH thing was never going to go anywhere. Now if Nash were to put a stable of guys together that came after HHh every week and then HHH put his guys together, but we already saw Dx vs NWO once before so meh on the whole thing. Oh and HHH was more than a tad plump around the middle at TLC. To many donuts with the kids. Lets hope Y2J can save us again.
 
I'm a little late to the party on this one, but I thought TLC was a very, very, very solid PPV outing. Good matches and surprises across the board, and who would have thought Triple H and Nash could deliver a brutal, entertaining match like that?

RAW was fine, too. WWE needed a strong showing to end 2011, and I think this will be as good as we're gonna get, and what we're getting is honestly quite fine by me.
 
It's fine I suppose if that is what you're looking for. Maybe my standards are far too high or something but whenever I watch now except or maybe one or two segments I'm bored silly and have to switch off. I suppose this feeling started after they basically had Punk drop the title the first time to Del Rio which was totally unnecessary and as I expected thought it wouldn't lead to a long run. So yeah, I'll probably watch the first Raw of the month next year to see who is returning/debuting. That's about it though.

2011 basically was like a roller coaster for me. Started off okay with The Miz, was excited about that then they made him lose the title to Cena. Rock came back, that was exciting, then they announced Rock/Cena along with the stipulations and that it would be a WWE Championship Title match, lost interest. Didn't really watch again until the CM Punk story line started catching fire in late June early July with him threatening to leave with the WWE Title. Suddenly WWE had the hottest story line in wresting and for about a month or so Raw was must see. Then the conspiracy angle happened. The Awesome Truth formed. We were continually teased for weeks on end about possibly a big heel stable forming and rumours abound about the reformation of the new world order. Then Del Rio won the belt, Cena won the belt, then Del Rio again, then finally Punk. Meh. I start loosing interest. Awesome Truth is buried...Killings tests positive and is banned for a month. Awesome Truth breaks up. Mark Henry becomes World Heavyweight Champion and is a beast Champion for nearly four months. Daniel Bryan cashes in his money in the bank..yay! Zack Ryder wins United States Championship Title! Yay!!! Rumours of Undertaker and Chris Jericho returning in Jan...yay!! Lita returns!!! Road Dogg returns!!! That'd be really my review of the year so far. Too many lows and not enough highs. I've not even mentioned the whole Vince/Trips/Nash/John L stuff. I kind of lumped that in with the conspiracy angle. I suspect we could see Vince back on television as early as next month.

I had a weird dream last night that I had an interview with Vince for a position on the WWE creative team. For some reason it wasn't with Steph who actually heads the department...I pitched him two specific story lines and he was disinterested and dismissive of both ideas. It was a quick interview. I did end up leaving with the number of a pretty receptionist lol. It was weird.
 
Who cares?

CM Punk tweeted this pic last night. It is a nice photoshoot of all the current WWE Champions. Of note three of them are ROH alumni.

Looks like I was on the right track. There were plans set for Bryan to cash in his briefcase as far away as the Elimination Chamber PPV.

Also those who mentioned a Daniel Bryan heel turn soon might not have been far off the mark...

Finally. Rumours are heating that Shawn Michaels may be the special guest referee if Undertaker Vs Triple H III...errr 2.5 happens at Wrestlemania 28. It is surprising that this particular rumour continues to persist. As much as it would disappoint me...there are threads that make sense for this to occur.

HHH and Taker at WM holds no interest for me whatsoever. With both of them mostly off of tv they are out of site out of mind. With both of them past their prime I think they should just let this match go. Having Taker vs any one man at WM is no longer a good draw. He has beaten all the top guys for over a decade. Perhaps some kind of gauntlet match would get me interested but otherwise, meh.
 
I find it hard to believe (maybe I shouldn't) that creative can't find something else for Marc to do when he returns. Unless this was specifically requested by him or Paul it doesn't make sense.

This is probably the most drug free WWE champions lineup in history! :lol:

Seriously, apart from Evan Bourne being suspended for smoking spice (a marijunana substitute), there are no other wellness violations, "superhuman" physiques and both world champions abstain from any kind of recreational substances. I'm not sure about DB and alcohol, but given that he has problems with his liver, it's a safe bet that he doesn't drink.

Triple H vs Undertaker 3 isn't exactly what I would choose to have as Undertaker's last match (if indeed it is). The dream match would be a triple threat featuring Undertaker, Triple H and Shawn Michaels - add to that a hell in a cell and you've got yourself a Wrestlemania match that is a fitting retirement match for a man who has invested over 20 years of his life into WWE.
 
the only problem with that picture is that beth is not topless like the others. I mean come on. lol.


and every body here have a marry christmas and happy holidays.
 
I don't think Punk would have approved of that. Has a group shot like that ever been done before? I think Punk probably requested this. I hope this becomes an annual thing but doubt it would.

I've seen a few, but most of them have played up kayfabe by having the heel champions act suspicious and look menacing, whilst the faces smile and strike heroic poses.

This recent one that Punk posted contains no element of kayfabe whatsoever! (except maybe Beth and Punk displaying no signs of being a couple)
 
So I guess Raw is on tonight. Anyone watching? It's Boxing Day up here (basically our equivalent of Black Friday) have made the mistake of going to the malls in past years and not coming back home until really late so I'm just staying home. I might actually watch tonight. Also our first time back to Chicago since Money in the Bank in July when all of this started. Maybe this means something will happen? Nah.

Jericho once again is tweeting he is "done" with WWE and isn't answering any more questions. I guess we'll find out in a couple weeks if this is true.

Uh-oh. WWE.com has put up an article stating that Alberto Del Rio will be out four to six weeks with an injury. Not sure if this is real or a kayfabe injury...this would probably further the reports that have been surfacing that Del Rio is in the dog house with creative lol.
