    Crowd Reaction

    Heck, even Cena acknowledged the crowd after the cameras turned off. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GcMJi1JUczE Wish I had been there. Awesome RAW and looks like a ton of fun. Got a kick from that video.

    TNA Files Lawsuit Against WWE

    Part of me wonders if TNA is fishing for something in discovery. A bigger part of me wonders what the upside is for TNA here. The biggest part of me knows nothing about Tennessee business law, so should probably just shut up. W/o looking up facts, I am assuming that WWE is a C-Corp...

    Nikki Bella NEW Diva's Champion!

    WWE is claiming Beth suffered a sprain of the anterior talofibular ligament. Basically, it's a sprained ankle. As someone who has been on crutches because of a sprained ankle, I know sometimes they can be worse than a clean break. How severe a sprain probably requires an MRI. Hopefully, it...

    Suspension of Disbelief

    I guess that most of what you posted can be written off as part of the WWEverse. A lot of what we see now (as compared to 25 years ago) tends to be closer to reality TV, where the participants either aren't supposed to know or care that there are cameras around. This obviously isn't the case...

    Suspension of Disbelief

    For those of us who have fallen from the ranks of "it's still real to me, dammit" WWE fans, the suspension of disbelief when it comes to WWE is a fine line. Since the mid-90's the WWF/E has presented its product as scripted entertainment, as opposed to an athletic event. That's all fine and...

    It's Lesnar on1/2/12

    Sniped, just came here to post this. I hear that he is signing a 6-month contract. No idea on the contract numbers.

    **MERGED** All Kane & Cena Angle Discussion- KEEP IT ALL IN HERE

    Really enjoyed the promo and am pleasantly surprised the WWE is allowing Kane to mock the anti-hate shirt and by extension the anti-bullying campaign.

    Alberto Del Rio: Main Event Future

    His gimmick is played out. Rich and flashy doesn't work for very long. Hell, Punk made it abundantly clear that his cars are provided by Hertz and his heat is provided by Ricardo Montelban nee Rodriguez. Ted Dibiase was the best at the gimmick and IIRC he never held the main belt. Raw is...

    Is The WWE Finally (And Justly) Over Randy Orton?

    He's on the cover of W12 and pretty much headlines every Smackdown. Orton has been doing a great job of building up Rhodes and now looks to be doing the same thing for Barrett. I'm not a fan of his voices gimmick, but he's doing great work on Smackdown and has made the blue heels much more...

    Awesome Truth After Survivor Series?

    Another vote for the continuation of the conspiracy. Johnny Ace can offer them title shots and other largesse for attacking Punk. They have made life difficult for Cena/Punk before and I can see them going back to their ways. How much longer is Evan Bourne out? I would enjoy seeing Miz/Truth...

    A Sane Man's Veiw on CM Punk's Title Win.

    If your main argument against Punk is that he isn't Rock, the same argument holds true against everyone currently signed to WWE. With the exception of Cena, Punk is the biggest thing going right now. Punk also has great growth potential, in the same vein as Austin. There is a corrupt regime in...

    Official Raw/Smackdown Aftermath, Ratings and Review Thread

    Nice call. I thought that the Muppets tie-in was going to be awful, but I was pleasantly surprised. The voices of Waldorf and Statler seemed off. Although they were my favorite Muppets, I thought their segments were the weakest part of the Muppets appearance.

    Michael Cole Is Seriously An Idiot

    I think Michael Cole is very good in his repartee with Lawler. He does a good job selling the heels while not appearing tremendously delusional. However, I agree that his technical knowledge is mediocre at best and it is obvious he has never taken the time to learn much about the craft he...

    Am I The Only One That Noticed. . .

    I was always amazed the organization rolled over to the World Wildlife Fund, but they tied their hands back in '94. The agreement between WWF and WWE basically took WWE to the cleaners on the subject of brand marketing the WWF initials outside of English speaking countries. Vince (and others)...

    Official Raw/Smackdown Aftermath, Ratings and Review Thread

    If the end game to the search for a new champion is to have ADR cash-in and win the new title, it makes a lot of sense for him to take the title from rey. The two already have a feud brewing and to have ADR win over rey could put him over well. There's also an argument to have Miz win and...

    WWE Money in the Back 2011: The Aftermath

    One of the main reasons I am looking forward to RAW tomorrow is to see who fills the void Punk and Cena leaving. If they are both gone for a couple months, the face talent on RAW looks a little thin. Can Rey-Ry carry the Raw brand as the top faces? I would enjoy a Miz face turn, but don't know...

    [Official] Christian is the new World Heavyweight Champion!!

    Have to think that if DB was cashing in quickly (and winning) he would have cashed in after the beatdown. Can't see a way to have Xian come back from the beating and take out Bryan tonight. Because that didn't happen, I think that DB will hold off to a time fairly far in the future. I'm not...

    Alberto del Rio wins RAW MITB!

    Who can be the #1 heel on Raw though? With CM Punk in limbo (and probably having made an anti-hero type face turn) there are only three contenders. ADR, Truth and The Miz all have the potential, but all three have major flaws. Miz has been doing a good job of putting Alex Riley over, but I...
