    Major Hip Hop Star To Perform On Raw Next Week

    Personally, I've never been into musical acts during the show, but I do see how it would appeal to some of the audience. That said, I just kinda figured this would be just the type of thing to be axed during the cost-cutting frenzy.

    When will the WWE bring Wrestlemania to Canada again?

    I'd love to see it happen soon. But if they came back to Canada, it would have to be in Vancouver. Since they've done Toronto twice, they should do western Canada, like Soulblazed said. Except Calgary would be out because their football stadium (ironically named McMahon Stadium) is outdoors...

    Summerslam 95

    All I can say is thank God they changed the match to HBK/Razor. Like Crucified Raven said, you had Diesel and Mabel in the main event which was pretty damn weak, and Bret with Yankem. No disrespect to Glenn Jacobs, but let's just say this character was not near the levels of Kane at the time...

    Undertaker vs. Undertaker

    Actually, I really liked the angle - but I was 11 years old ;) I remember the buildup all summer, which was a lot of fun. This of course was back in the day before internet spoilers and the like, so it was great to talk with all of my friends about what we thought would happen. Some thought...

    Get rid of the Titantron!

    My only issue with the Titantron is that no matter how miniscule your spot on the card is, EVERYONE gets an elaborate video/graphic package. There's people on the card that don't deserve an entrance package on par with the mid card to top guys. And by that I'm talking about the guys that are...

    There's still hope for Bret

    I agree. I mean I didn't really have a problem with Bret's punches last week because it looked like a hockey fight lol. But this week bret threw some classic Hitman punches at security and looked pretty good. He looked a lot more loose. By the time Mania rolls around I think he will look...

    The Saddest Day In Wrestling History

    Great thread. I was 11 years old when Bret Hart lost the WWF title to Bob Backlund at Survivor Series 94. We couldn't get Pay Per View here at the time, and this was before the days of the internet. That particular PPV was on a Wednesday night, and a local TV station here showed a WWF show...

    WWE House Shows are an absolute Ripoff to the fans

    I have to agree whole heartedly with this. I haven't been to (or even wanted to go to) a house show since Smackdown rolled through here in 2003. There were 2 that summer, and I have to say the change in even just 6 years is incredible. Myself as well as 4,000 lucky fans were treated to a...

    Ultimate Warrior to Hall of Fame?

    Personally, growing up, I had a blast watching the Ultimate Warrior. Years later however, it became apparent that there was a ton of heat between him and the WWE, although until I saw the DVD that WWE released a few years ago on Warrior, I had no idea how much Vince seemed to hate him...

    WWE 5 years from now?

    Yeah, I see what you're saying. I just think it would be a major mistake to keep catering to only kids for that long. The fan base would just turn into a revolving door, rather than have loyal fans who watch for decades.

    WWE 5 years from now?

    Definitely Cena and Orton will be around at the top, helping groom the guys that are almost at the top. They'res gonna have to be about 3 or 4 guys that are currently mid carding that are able to take that next step, because like was mentioned before, there are some big names that are in the...

    General Hell in a Cell PPV Discussion

    Yeah, I agree. Nowadays, a fresh and original Hell in a Cell match is pretty tough to pull off, let alone 3 times in one night. The mystique of this kind of match is that we hardly ever see it, and it's reserved for the most brutal feuds, kind of like a "last resort" to finish a really brutal...

    Best WWE Ring Annoucer

    The Fink is easily the greatest of all time. I don't like Justin Roberts, but as long as Tony Chimmel isn't on Raw, I can't complain. He should only be allowed on the ring crew. Someone tell Chimmel that it's pronounced "chAAAmpion", and not "CHIMPion". A "chimp" is a monkey, you idiot.

    Should Bret Hart thank Warrior?

    I think it may have helped speed up Bret's progress a bit, but like deanerandterry said, Vince McMahon was dealing with the steroid allegations from the US government in 1992, and the WWF at the time was moving away from the overly muscular, roided up physiques like Warrior had, which opened the...

    Contract Signings: Are They Really Necessary?

    It's pretty much a given these days that a table plus two feuding wrestlers are a recipe for disaster. Whenever there's furniture in the ring, you know what's gonna happen. I do like the contract signings in the sense that they are sort of a throw back to the past, but they've been done so...
