See... all this W24 talk is still too early since a lot might happen in between. Let's just let it pass and let the storyline flow for the meantime.

there was an earlier plan of Mr. Kennedy being the bastard son of vince that will threaten the family business. thus HHH to the rescue revealing himself as the son in law. and the plan was to put HHH and Mr. kennedy in a match at WM24 for the rights of the family business or something... but that has changed. :thumbsdownsmiley:

 

so i expect some changes on this one coz as you say its too early.

 

HHH vs. Kennedy would be better than batista though :thumbsupsmiley:

[yubiakira]

anong latest sa TNA? mga renegades nang WWE na nasa TNA na. do u think that Booker T's defection is a wise decision? will RVD follow?

[clubber_lang]

I couldn't agree more. HHH-Kennedy is a better match...

[Kazekage.Gaara]

I couldn't agree more. HHH-Kennedy is a better match...

 

as long as Cena's NOT in WM24, I'm down with that.

[andrean48]

He would be a good addition to the WM24 line up.

Vince McMahon has been revealed as the person who canceled the most recently interesting storyline in ECW between Balls Mahoney and Kelly Kelly.

 

It's rare to find a midcard storyline that ends up taking a life of its own and takes over as the focal point of a brand. That's what ECW had when they started a storyline between Balls Mahoney and Kelly Kelly.

 

Wrestling audiences have always been fans of the underdog storylines. When Kelly Kelly's character started showing interest in Balls Mahoney, fans had themselves the ultimate underdog story.

 

Nothing against Balls Mahoney. He's probably a good looking man in his own rights (he does have a girlfriend in real life), but very few people would bet on him being able to attract a woman as beautiful as Kelly Kelly.

 

For weeks, fans were teased with the prospect that Kelly Kelly was going to be leaving behind her friends in Extreme Expose to be with Balls Mahoney. With every passing week, the crowd reaction began getting louder and louder.

 

Much of the credit has to go to ECW head writer Dusty Rhodes. He actually spent the time to write out the storyline weeks in advance. He also spent considerable time with Balls Mahoney and Kelly Kelly, working with them on their promo skills.

 

His hard work actually got Vince McMahon to notice Kelly Kelly more, which ironically ended up killing the storyline.

 

Reports claim that Vince McMahon ended the storyline because he believes that Kelly Kelly can be the next big diva. He feels that having her involved with Balls Mahoney might reduce her stock. There's even talks about moving her to either Raw or Smackdown to increase her exposure.

 

Vince McMahon began taking a stronger interest in Kelly Kelly around the same time the fans did. That time was when her storyline with Balls Mahoney started gaining steam. WWE could be making a huge mistake here by killing the momentum that was being built up.

 

The momentum from this storyline actually benefitted quite a bit of people.

 

One of the biggest complaints about ECW is that management failed to develop a #2 babyface behind CM Punk. There were never any plans to have Balls Mahoney take over that spot. In fact, Vince McMahon would have thought you were insane for even assuming that Balls Mahoney could take over that spot. However, the storyline was so good that Balls Mahoney ended up becoming the #2 babyface in ECW by default.

 

Kelly Kelly went from being good eye candy in Extreme Expose to being a character with more depth; a character that the audience started connecting with.

 

The Miz also received a rub from the storyline. It was just enough to elevate him into the main event scene in ECW.

 

Management is constantly trying to figure out ways of getting the audience to care about wrestlers they wish to push. It's a bit foolish to end a storyline that "accidentally" elevates someone.

 

 

 

Even though Carlito has given his notice to the company, WWE still hopes that he changes his mind. They'd rather not lose another wrestler to TNA right now.

 

 

 

Chris Masters has mentioned that he's quite interested in working for TNA. However, TNA has shown very little interest in bringing him in right now.

 

 

 

Management is in no rush to bring DH Smith back to television. When he does come back, he won't be receiving a big push. He'll be stuck in the midcard.

 

 

 

Management is leaning towards putting the WWE Heavyweight Championship back on Triple H so he can go into Wrestlemania as the champion.

 

 

 

Is the Cruiserweight Division Dead?

When Vickie Guerrero announced on Smackdown that the WWE Cruiserweight Championship was vacant, most people didn't expect it to be a permanent thing.

 

Cruiserweight Decline

 

The WWE Cruiserweight Championship and the cruiserweight division itself have been on a decline for a while now. What once was considered a strong point on a wrestling show has now been relegated to an afterthought.

 

It's a shame too since the belt can be traced back to the likes of great wrestlers like Jushin "Thunder" Liger, Dean Malenko, Brian Pillman, Rey Mysterio, Ultimo Dragon, Chris Jericho, Eddie Guerrero, Juventud Guerrera, Psychosis, Tajiri, Matt Hardy, Chavo Guerrero, and a few others.

 

For years, WCW held the cruiserweight division in high regards. While they weren't the main attraction (the nWo, Sting, Goldberg, and the Four Horsemen basically filled that role), very few could argue that they weren't a vital part in helping WCW beat WWE in the ratings.

 

Aside from a short period of time where Madusa and Oklahoma (former WCW and WWE writer Ed Ferrara) held the belt, the cruiserweight championship matches were usually hotly contested matches. They provided the substance while the nWo provided the style.

 

When WWE brought the championship back, it initially began building up prestige again. Some of the better matches on pay per views were fought over the WWE Cruiserweight Championship.

 

The Final Straw

 

The final straw for a lot of wrestling purists was when Hornswoggle captured the WWE Cruiserweight Championship at the Great American Bash in July.

 

People weren't so much upset that a vertically challenged wrestler had won the belt. They were more upset that a once prestigious belt was reduced to a running joke that basically only Vince McMahon and the writers found funny. Rather than utilizing the belt to help elevate one of the many talented cruiserweights on the Smackdown roster, the belt was used to enable the writers to come up with some cartoonish backstage skits.

 

When you have a division filled with guys like Chavo Guerrero, Funaki, Gregory Helms, Jamie Noble, Jimmy Wang Yang, Rey Mysterio, and Shannon Moore, it shouldn't be too difficult to provide some exciting matches. We understand WWE wanted to make sure that their employees don't take additional risks, but it's a still a shame that these guys aren't allowed to do what they do best. Pick any two of those guys and put them on a pay per view, and they'd be able to produce a candidate for Match of the Day.

 

Another thing that's disturbing is that WWE chooses to turn these guys into jobbers instead of having them provide depth in the United States Heavyweight Championship division and the WWE Tag Team Championship division. With a slight gimmick change, Jimmy Wang Yang and Funaki can provide the tag team division with a veteran tag team. Guys like Jamie Noble, Shannon Moore, and Chavo Guerrero can also contend for MVP's title.

 

Closing Thoughts

 

If WWE is going to bring the belt back and neglect it again, we'd much rather see it retired in a proper manner.

 

 

 

 

Torrie Wilson will miss a few weeks of action. She will be receiving physical therapy to help heal her injured back. Nattie Neidhart may be called up soon.

 

 

Tammy Sytch (formerly known in WWE as Sunny) has been confirmed for next week's Monday Night Raw. It's been almost a decade since she left.

 

 

Former ECW diva Brooke Adams has been telling people that she plans on working with TNA in the near future. She also plans on doing Playboy soon.

 

 

Vince McMahon will attempt to discuss a possible Wrestlemania match with Hulk Hogan and Steve Austin next week. Both are scheduled to appear on Raw

 

 

WWE has successfully negotiated a new deal with the USA Network to continue airing Monday Night Raw until 2010. The original contract was to end in 2008.

 

 

Trish Stratus has been listed again for next week’s Raw.

 

For some unknown reason, her name was removed from the list of former superstars that are expected to return for the 15th anniversary show.

 

 

 

Evolution will be making a one night only reunion on Monday Night Raw next week.

 

It’ll be interesting to see how WWE pulls this off. A reunion between Triple H, Ric Flair, and Batista can easily be done since all three guys are babyfaces. However, Randy Orton is a heel. That should add an interesting dynamic to the reunion.

 

Also, there’s word that WWE may be using the reunion to set up one of the potential main events for Wrestlemania with this reunion. Within the past few months, there’s been rumors of matches between HHH/Orton, HHH/Batista, and Batista/Orton. WWE may also use the Evolution reunion to help further the new Ric Flair storyline.

anu un pinagtripan lang nila si bret???

me nabasa pa nga ako kasama pa ata si triple h sa issue..

Chris Masters has mentioned that he's quite interested in working for TNA. However, TNA has shown very little interest in bringing him in right now.

 

If TNA shows little interest to a young wrestler like Chris Masters, that could only mean that wrestler sucks big-time...

 

Tammy Sytch (formerly known in WWE as Sunny) has been confirmed for next week's Monday Night Raw. It's been almost a decade since she left.

 

She got really fat the last I saw her...

 

Vince McMahon will attempt to discuss a possible Wrestlemania match with Hulk Hogan and Steve Austin next week. Both are scheduled to appear on Raw

 

Both of these guys won't let the other win, so this is going to be really hard to pull off. Plus they hate each other's guts...

[andrean48]

Batista vs Orton?

 

I saw that last year before Orton went to Smackdown.

 

It would be interesting now since both of them hold a World Title.

[deathsaurer]

ano kaya kung hhh vs. jericho then triple threat sina edge,taker & batista
