MNM again? in ECW? hope they're not jumping there, cuz glamor boys dont fly with the ECW crowd, methinks...

 

Taker-Batista would be awesome. I wonder how they're going to play off the mind games angle. Or maybe even a Triple Threat? hehehe...

 

Salutes to the Piper. Hodgkins lymphoma is tough. Treatable but it really wrecks you.

Batista and John Cena partner together against Booker and Finlay...

[pogi1119]

Baka alam nyo na to pero I'll just mention it:

 

When asked, "Bakit mahilig ka manood ng (Pro) Wrestling, eh scripted lang yan, ah? D naman sport yun."

 

My answer:

 

1. "Sinabi ko ba sport yun? I treat it as entertainment for me. PLus, kahit hindi sport yan, all the characters have to be athletic and in top condition."

 

2. "Scripted? Eh, all films are scripted yet why do you watch them. PLus, (pro) wrestling is the only "film" that has action, suspense, comedy, drama , sexuality (although mild lang) rolled into one showing. Name me any other film that can match that?"

taker is an expert when playing the mind game part so whatever that will be, im sure its gonna be fun to watch. im worried about their plan on letting batista win though (if what i posted earlier was authentic). i dont want taker to end his WM streak to batista. it should be someone younger and promising. and its WM so at least make taker's loss a great match and something fans can remember.

ECW News: orginals frustrated

 

- Lashley lobbied to be sent to ECW after being frustrated with the way he had been handled on Smackdown. The move looks like it will pay off and Lashley is expected to continue getting a strong push and looks to be in line for a title run.

 

- Rob Van Dam is frustrated with his current situation in ECW and is miserable according to multiple backstage sources. His contract is set to expire in the next 6 months or so, and he is said to be counting the days until his deal is up.

 

-Some people backstage are wondering if Sabu is trying to get his release with his recent behavior. As was reported at pwinsider.com, Sabu has had major backstage heat recently for falling asleep backstage for hours at a time, and for other unprofessional behavior. "It's almost as if he's trying to get fired", one source told us.

 

- Virtually all of the ECW "Originals" are frustrated and disappointed with the direction things have gone.

 

- The ECW announce team had expected to be involved in some way at Survivor Series but when they arrived at the building for the show they were told they weren't going to be used.

 

oh well i think RVD and Sabu will be going to TNA if ever.

Wrestling Observer News and Notes for Future Dec 4 Issue

 

Survior Series Match Ratings

1) Legends vs Sprit Squad = **1/4

2) Benoit vs Chavo = ***1/4

3) Mickie vs Lita = *1/2

4) Team DX vs Team RKO = **3/4

5) Kennedy vs Taker = ***

6) Team Cena vs Team Show = **1/4

7) Big Dave vs Booker = *1/4

 

 

Obviously there's news about Piper, but nothing anyone here doesn't already now.

 

 

 

Lita obviously wasn't happy with her on screen exit from WWE. She wrote on her MySpace two days after the show, "... To say I was disappointed with my final moments with WWE is quite an understatment. It was comforting to read all your comments and e-mails when I got home. I appreciate that you were able to see I did my best in the situation that was handed to me to give you guys an entertaining match and play along and be a professional with the other stuff that went along with my big farewell night... If that were why I was writing, it'd probably be about 10 pages long and with a bunch of (expletives) and captial letters." She was very happy though with her farewell when it came to the wrestlers themselves. Edge reserved the top floor of a bowling alley and all the wrestlers came to honor her with a surprise party.

 

Jim Ross signed a a one-year contract, rather than the standard three-year deal with a two year company option. Ross was coming off a ten-year contract negotiated in 1996. After all the attemptst to replace him over the past year they seem to be admitting they've not been able to find anyone, but are not committed to JR is anything other than short term. His actual contract expired on 10/29 and he signed a two week extention. At one point there was talk of allowing to work without a contract, but Vince wouldn't have that as it would allow him to walk into TNA any time he wanted. Ross, who turns 55 in a few weeks, is largely out of the loop in the power structure of the company after being the number two guy for a long time. His duties now involve announcing Raw, doing the talent payroll and giving written feedback on the TV shows.

 

There is talk of having Matt Hardy move to Raw full time and have the Hardyz as a full time tag team again following how well they got over the the ECW show.

 

Sabu is in the dog house after being in rough shape and falling asleep backstage on 11/20 in Baltimore. They decided not to fire him, but it was strongly talked about. The company wants to keep him around untill at least Wrestlemania as they want him to induct the Shiek into the Hall of Fame in Detroit. Sabu isn't happy though as he feels the WWE isn't allowing him to be the old Sabu and he thinks that without that character he's nothing.

 

After the MNM vs Hardyz match at the ECW PPV Nitro and Melina will head back to Raw while Joey Mercury will stay on ECW as a singles heel.

 

For Armageddon on 12/17 the main events will be Undertaker vs Kennedy in a Last Ride Match and Kane vs MVP in an Inferno Match. The top match will more than likely be Batista and Cena vs Booker and Finlay. There's probably also going to be a Benoit/Chavo rematch.

 

The 1/7 New Years Revolution show will have Cena vs Umaga for the title and probably some sort of gimmick match between DX and Rated RKO.

 

Flair is going to be taking time off for his divorce situation this month. He's already paid Beth $540,000 in cash, plus $20,000 a month in alimony.

 

A casting call has been set up on 11/29 for women who are "18-28 yrs Super hot. Great attitude. Big personality". Michelle Deighton, Jonny Fairplay's girlfriend, has an interview with Laurinitis coming up soon. She was on America's Next Top Model.

 

Cena is in People magazine's 100 sexiest men of the year list. Apparantly they're going to put over his 'sexy eyes'.

 

Settlement talks are starting soon between Warrior (the artist formally known as Jim Hellwig) and WWE regarding 'The Self Destruction of the Ultimate Warrior' DVD. In a prior legal settlement over the catchphrase "Always Believe" the two sides agreed never to disparage each other in public and Warrior feels, probably rightly, that the DVD did exactly that.

 

They have been pushing the 1/1 Raw with Cena and K-Fed hard, so hopefully there's been some forward planning and they at least know what they're going to do on 1/1 and maybe even can use it to build to Mania.

 

Candice Michelle suffered a deviated septum from a stiff kick from Victoria. She will be under going nasal surgery very soon.

 

Michelle McCool has been hospitalised for more than a week due to an enlarged kidney and anelectrolyte imbalance. The condition was serious enough that it could have led to heart of kidney failure if left untreated.

 

'The Marine' is now at $18,518,049 domestic, and $991,837 internationally.

 

They have hired Brian Friedman and Nick Florez, two choreographers to set up new individualistic ring entrances for the women.

RVD in TNA, damn ill definitely wait for that! By the looks of it naman, mkhang dun talaga papunta un eh along with Sabu and a few others sa tingin ko! The problem with WWE right now is that they're too focused with their gimmicks! Kahit DX ngaun corny na rin!

ive read somewhere that wwe will return to the attitude era coz vince wants a higher rating... i think smackdown will be like the 80s and raw like the 90s... or vice versa.

SMACKDOWN! TAPING RESULTS FOR DEC. 8, 2006

 

WWE Smackdown was filmed in Florence, South Carolina last night, and here are the results of the show:

 

In a dark match, Henry Godwin (with the slop bucket) and Ray Gordy defeated Rob Conway and Tatanka when Godwin hit the Slop Drop on Conway.

 

Smackdown began with a hearse parked near the entrance ramp. Ken Kennedy came to the ring and talked about how he had beaten the Undertaker twice and had nothing left to prove. The bells then tolled, the hearse backed up to the ring, and the Undertaker got out. Kennedy ran out of the ring and escaped through the crowd as the Undertaker posed.

 

William Regal and Dave Taylor defeated London and Kendrick. London was outside the ring protecting Ashley or something of the sort when Kendrick was pinned.

 

Once again, we got the World Heavyweight Champion wrestling in the middle of the show next as Batista beat Finlay by disqualification. Little Bastard came out from under the ring during the match and jumped off of the top turnbuckle. Batista caught him, and I believe this is when Finlay hit Batista with the shillelagh. Then, King Booker ran out and got Finlay dq'ed as they both beat Batista down. Surprisingly, Cena did not appear to help Batista.

 

As a side note, I saw the way that Little Bastard got under the ring. During the commercial time before this segment, the lights went out during a video on the Titantron. About a dozen ring crew guys then walked down the ramp, around the ring, and back up the ramp. I caught a glimpse of LB in the group right before he slid under the apron. The funniest part was during the second commercial break after this match, with the lights on, he jumped out from under the ring and ran to the back as fast as he could.

 

In the next match, Jimmy Wang Yang beat Jamie Noble for the number one contendership to the Cruiserweight title. I assume this will take place at Armageddon. Gregory Helms was commentating during this match.

 

Chris Benoit did a backstage interview talking about Chavo and Vickie when Vickie walked up in a neck brace and whined about Benoit knocking her off the apron. She then slapped Benoit and stormed off. When she got around the corner, Chavo was there waiting. They chuckled about it, and it seemed like Vickie was faking the injury.

 

MVP complained to Teddy Long about being put in the Inferno Match at Armageddon against Kane. Long said he would give MVP a chance to soften Kane up next week on Smackdown, as it would be MVP and Ken Kennedy against Kane...and the Undertaker. MVP flipped out.

 

Chris Benoit beat Sylvan in a squash.

 

The Miz beat Scotty 2 Hotty in a quick match. Afterwards, Boogieman came down and beat on Miz outside the ring. He then ate worms.

 

The main event was Ken Kennedy vs. Kane. MVP came out and helped Kennedy beat Kane down. Undertaker's music hit and the lights went out. When the lights came back on, Kane was gone. Then the lights went out again and when they came back on, Undertaker and Kane were standing in the ring behind MVP and Kennedy. I assume this is where Smackdown went off the air. The four men had a match afterwards (probably a dark match), but I left before it was over.

 

So, after this taping, the Armageddon card is taking shape. In addition to the 3 matches already announced, it appears that Benoit will take on Chavo, Regal and Taylor will get a tag title shot against Kendrick and London, Gregory Helms will defend the Cruiserweight title against Jimmy Wang Yang, and the Boogieman will face the Miz.

Nag-taping para sa longest yard! Hahahaha!

ECW ain't the same ECW as before wwe took over... no wonder the originals are getting frustrated...

i do hope vince would let it be like before....

lashley is the new ECW champ... i guess, he'll be happier in ECW than when he was on SmackDown

 

I'm a Batista Fan as well as Taker...

but i don't think it's the best for Batista to end Taker's streak...

They let him win the championship an then leave it open when he retires...

just like trish did...
