Slober knocker from last night my gawd!!

[AphxA]

Summer slam results

Incase anyone still watches wrestling, here are the results from last nights ppv

chris benoit defeats orlando jordon(shortest match) what was it like, three minutes.

due to complications, the edge vs matt hardy match couldnt continue cause matt hit his head on the post and was bleeding terribly

kurt angle defeated eugene and won back his gold medal

Some promo about vince mcmahon running for president. All the divas were washing his car cause well thats basically all they can do is wear skimpy bikinis.

john cena defeated chris jericho, this match was so bad, I think chris jericho is done

ray mysterio defeated eddie guerrero in the ladder match. Ray ray gets to keep his son. Basically eddie got screwed again cause his own wife interferred.

Undertaker lost haha to randy orton. His father cowboy bob orton came in the ring and distracted taker and when undertaker turned around. Bam! THE RKO MY GAWD. guess this means undertaker is taking another 5 months off

Hulk hogan defeated shawn michaels. I swear, shawn put hogan over so well. At one point in the match hogan head was bleeding so badly, blood was runnng into his eyes.

All in all, the thing i cant understand is why a heavy weight championship match wasnt the man event but then again I cant even remember who all the champions are for raw or smackdown so thats shows how much i care. lol

Also, side not: the new undertaker three disc dvd comes out tuesday. Woot!!

All in all, the thing i cant understand is why a heavy weight championship match wasnt the man event

It happens once in a great while, if they think that a match without a title on the line is the most anticipated. 2 examples, WrestleMania VIII at the HooserDome, Hulk Hogan vs Sid Justice was the last match, and not Randy Savage vs Ric Flair for the belt. And SummerSlam in 1992 in Wembley Stadium in London, Bret Hart vs Davey Boy Smith for the Intercontinental title was the last match, and not Randy Savage vs Ultimate Warrior for the WWF title. I know that second one isn't the best example since it WAS a title match, but the I-C belt was the WWF's secondary title, and it would never have been the main event if SummerSlam was in the USA that year.

And on the main event last night, I didn't watch SummerSlam but having HBK shake Hulk Hogan's hand after the match...that is SO not the "old HBK", which they were trying to push him as going back to the "old HBK." Not even a heel thing to do at all, shaking your opponent's hand after you lose. Which makes me wonder if HBK going back to being a heel was just a short-term thing. It was fun while it lasted though. 🙁

I enjoyed the PPV

I for one enjoyed it...WWE needs to get back to the drama of just beating the holy hell outta people and stop these silly "Im gonna get my son back" and "you sat in my seat" BS drama queen stuff. Just have a guy insult another, run his car over with a bulldozer, run in the ring and hit him with a sledgehammer and then have a huge slobberknocker of a match at the PPV. Thats entertainment to me. And Id hate to say this, but I miss HHH, he got soooooo played out after a while that I am glad they gave him a break, he did deserve it. But now Raw needs a better heel than Jericho or Edge or Carlito. Im anticipating HHH's return when Raw moves back to the USA network in October, thats when its been said that HHH will be back. BTW for the best wrestling info go to www.1wrestling.com.

Thats my dollar and 2 cents worth.

 

[TklDuo-Ann]

We enjoyed the show. There was a good amount of action...though I thought they should have had less rehashing of stuff. We also couldn't help noticing that there were a lot of sloppy moves last night. It seemed like the guys were distracted or something. Good show overall though.

[Mimi]

I only have one comment:

*rant begin*

Why why WHY must every stinking credible wrestler job to Hogan at some point in their career?! HBK is one of the top wrestlers in the WWE right now. Why the HELL did he have to job to that egotistical, saggy boobed, 3-ring-moves, has been who is one step away from being committed to a nursing home?? Yeah yeah, I've heard it all..."He's a LEGEND! He's the reason wrestling is what it is today! He's the original household name wrestler!" SO WHAT! He can not keep up with todays standards in wrestling, he has not earned any respect through his backstage crap and has held back many an up and coming talent due to his ego and power manipulations. Add to the fact he's not even on the WWE roster right now and WTF? Hogan, get out of the ring and go back to your reality show on VH1. Let todays younger, brighter, and more talented wrestlers have their time in the light. You've far overstayed your welcome.

Oh, I'm also with CQ on his comments regarding HBK. The old heel HBK would NEVER have shook hands after the match. I, too, was hoping for another serious heel push for Michaels, but apparently that's not going to happen.

*rant over*

Mimi

 

[TklDuo-Ann]

Come now, Mimi. Tell us what you REALLY think. lol I have to say I agree, though I did enjoy watching HBK overact to the very limits of his ability. It made a fun show out of it in my view...almost like a spoof of wrestling matches. I took it as comic relief, though I know it wasn't entirely meant that way.

That happened not because the Hogan/Justice match was the most anticipated, but because Hogan almost always refuses to wrestle on PPVs unless he is involved in the main event.

Come to think of it, I think I may have read something to that effect in Ric Flair's book regarding WrestleMania VIII but forgot about it.

 

[TklDuo-Drew]

I agree with Mimi....Hogan is now completely played out as a wrestler. Granted his run back in 2002 was more exciting as he was coming off the N.W.O. rehash and returned to the red and yellow. He should've ended things there.
Even The Undertaker looked a little tired and bored last night during his match with Randy Orton, I'm glad Randy won.
And as far as the handshake at the end of the show between Hogan and HBK....I was really hoping Triple H would show up with his sledgehammer.

[morefeatherz]

I wish Brock Lesnar would have shown up and put them ALL into retirement! He was the next big thing. He had the size, strength, endurance and athletic ability. You either loved him or hated him. I for one, miss Brock and the Rock very much and haven't really watched wrestling on a regular basis since they both left.

Just my two cents.

One more question.. wasn't Batista supposed to wrestle JBL? Shows how much I keep up with it lol.

 

[TklDuo-Drew]

Bastista did wrestle Bradshaw at Summerslam, he ended up power-bombing him on the steel steps that got thrown in the ring and winning the match.

Brock Lesner was in talks with the WWE about returning, but negotiations fell though.

I wish The Rock would've returned too.....stupid Hollywood sell-out.


Drew

 

[Krokus]

no rock or brock...


yea, that really sucks.

 

[The Sean Man]

I wish The Rock would've returned too.....stupid Hollywood sell-out.


Drew

Hmmmm, let's see....work 365 days a year, suffering injuries that will plague you the rest of your life....

.....or make movies. Seems like a no-brainer to me

Besides, Vince was the genius that wanted his boys in movies. Well, Mr. McMahon, this is what happens.

Don't get me wrong...i miss the Rock terribly, but he took advantage of a golden opportunity and is making the most of it.

 

[AphxA]

I believe the rock used the wwe as a stepping ladder to get his name out there.

 

[StockedAndGagged]

Well now that both Summerslam and the post-Raw are in the bag...

My guess on why they aren't pushing HBK as a true heel is that the writers, those genius intelligent writers, think that no matter what they do to HBK, we'll still cheer him. And they're probably right, for once. Even if HBK became the heel that he once was, I would be willing to bet people would still cheer for him. Except in Canada. He's so charismatic that you have to love him, even if did superkick Hogan. Which as entertaining as Hogan is, I still loved.

They also probably want to keep HBK as a babyface because, aside from John Cena, they don't have any other main event good guys on Raw. HBK balances it out a bit.

Other miscellaneous news and notes from the wrestling world.

I can't wait until they let Eugene not be Eugene. The gimmick was great, but is now beaten to death, and they need to change it up a bit. Have him be beaten so bad, he gets common sense. Have him turn heel and unveil that this was a moneymaking scheme with his uncle eric from day one. Have him just disappear for a week and then come back with shorter hair; just do something!

Shelton Benjamin proved he should be pushed into the main event. He's been proving it. He can't talk worth a damn, but that hasn't stopped Batista, has it?

Why do we have tag team belts anymore? Even if this new team Cade and Murdoch are coming to the WWE, that leaves all of 2-3 teams on Raw, and less on Smackdown. And there was not a single tag team match at the PPV. Bury it with the Womens title, and bring it back out in a couple years.

And last but certainly not least; Id vote Vinnie Mac for president. Wouldnt you?

 

[CaptainQuantum]

Toward the end, you could see the Rock's heart just wasn't in it anymore. His character had completely changed from, say '99 or '00. He didn't use any of his taglines, he wouldn't speak in 3rd person nearly as much (he said "I" instead of "the Rock).

The last time the Rock was really good was during the WCW/ECW Alliance angle, when he would make fun of Stephanie and ESPECIALLY Booker T. When he said something about Booker T riding to school in the shortbus, and when the teacher asked "class, what's 2+2" and Booker saying "I know! I know! Thomas Jefferson, sucka!", I about died. But it was downhill from there.

Sean Man is right. Rock probably makes AT LEAST as much money now making movies as he did wrestling, with a lot easier schedule and less demanding physically. Plus he probably sees his family a heck of a lot more now. I think for him, he made the only sensible choice.

As far as HBK goes, maybe they had him turn heel as a way to get a little more of the "old HBK" attitude back in his character, which he will probably keep even as a face. And remember last monday when HBK said you'll never see Bret Hart in a WWE ring again? Am I the only one who saw that as a thinly-disguised build-up for Bret's long-anticipated return?

 

[rajee]

Y2J retired from wrestling or just part of a scripted plot?

Did Chris Jericho want Raw to be his last match in WWE or did he get let go due to new contract arbitrations (he wanted more money and they said no) or is this just a sub-plot?

Did RAW management believe that they had no use for Stacey and Christie anymore? I guess the characters Super-Stacy and Eugene's cheerleader had crashed and burned.

I guess we can get ready to see Victoria team up with Ashley or maybe Trish will make her return.

 

[grippedchimp]

Stacy and Christy have moved to Smackdown! in trading with Torrie and Candice. As for Jericho, he's still employed with the company. He's taking time off because his band Fozzy are about to go on a world tour, and will no doubt return in a few months time.

 

[AphxA]

Thats what I want. Shawn michaels to go full heel. I know he cant, cause some of the things he wants to say might conflict with his new found religious beliefs.

Also, when the company leaves spike tv in september, i wonder how that will effect the future of the company. If they go to the usa network, they will have to censor themselves so bad.

I thought chris Jericho was going to retire. I would like to see him make a run for a title. He has made himself look so bad, I lost so much interest in watching him. Fozzy is a bad band.

 

[CaptainQuantum]

Snitsky's foot fetish

Anyone know if Snitsky's foot fetish is totally made up, or did they maybe come up with the idea for his character because he has a foot fetish in real life? If it is made up, I hope for his sake that when he had to inhale Lita's and Maria's feet they were fresh outta the shower or something 😛

As much of a jones as I have for women's feet, the foot sniffing thing is something I could just never get into. I once asked the people in the "Pretty Feet and Toes" AOL room, if foot odor is a turn-on for you, would the ultimate be your woman not washing her feet for like a month or something? Needless to say, they weren't very pleased LOL.

Speaking of WWE Divas, my favorite is Christy Hemme. I love redheads and she's cute as hell, but there's just something about seeing her walk down that ramp to and from the ring that isn't quite right. I realize she's trying to shake her ass when she walks as much as possible (at least it looks like that's what she's trying to do), but sometimes she kinda looks like she's walking like a duck

 

[Mimi]

You noticed that too, CQ? I often wondered if she is incapable of walking in tall heels, and hence why she looks like she is having epileptic seizures on her way to the ring. Don't get me wrong, I adore Christy....I think she has more fire, potential, and energy than pretty much any other female on the WWE roster...but she's gotta lose the "giant spider on my shoulder trying to eat me must shake off and dislodge before reaching the ring" shimmy she does up and down the ramp.

 

[TklDuo-Drew]

The funny thing about Christy's entrance is her theme music.......it's a song by The Hives called "Walk, Idiot, Walk". The chorus of the tune goes "See the idiot walk, see the idiot talk...". This usually gets cut off though by the time she hits the ring.

[Celtic_Emperor]

The Hogan/Michaels feud may be over, but they made it seem genuine enough by actually stating undesirable truths about Hulk Hogan. Remember when Michaels dressed up as Hogan and impersonated him in a mock Larry King interview? That was funny.

" You, see, after I jumped ship and walked out on the WWE to make even MORE money someplace else...

...


After seeing how great Shawn Michaels was, last week on RAW, it looks like I've got some serious politicing to do back stage, with Vincent K. McMahon!

...

You see the Hulkster brother, he has this philosophy brother. Once those people are in the building, you already have their cash in your front pocket brother! But this Shawn Michaels, he'd rather go out there each and every week and nearly kill himself to put on a show and make sure those people get their money's worth, brother!"


And then recently he just flat out said it-

"Hogan, I hate you for the same reasons I hate Bret Hart! You stood for some moral fiber which in your real life, does not exist! Hulk Hogan will stand for just about anything. You don't have a single real bone in your body!"


I think that, on an emotional level, much like with the McMahon/Hogan feuds, they did a good job with this by using reality (or parts of it) rather than a complete script.

 

[Celtic_Emperor]

Even The Undertaker looked a little tired and bored last night during his match with Randy Orton, I'm glad Randy won.

Drew

He always looks bored and tired. I think its just part of his persona as the deadman. I think Mark gets SO into the essence of his character sometimes that he forgets who he is and that by some default gimmick, he's to be physically/phychologically dominant in every match, and the only way he can lose legitimately is by DQ, two-on-one, etc or the stunt Randy pulled.

Its just part of his whole undead/necromancer role that he's slow, makes jerky robotic movements, his eyes look distant, and then you slap him around a bit, and then he wails on you.

But yeah, there are times, like that night, that he seemed...indifferent, I'll say. Indifferent is a good work I think.

Maybe he's just sick and tired of the same thing, he knows he's either going to be screwed over or is going to win by default. Maybe he's lost his way and has generally become jaded as a wrestler and talent. He's at that point where he can float along on his reputation and not have to wrestle another day in his career. He's in danger of becoming a Hulk Hogan.

Wasn't he going to retire about two years ago? Everyone was like "this is his last run as the deadman and then he's calling it quits!" and here we are, almost two years after his "deadman" return and he's still going at it. I don't mind, though.
