Professional Wrestling (WWE, TNA, ROH, etc)

Not going to happen. They've let some great opportunities to pull the trigger on it slip by though.

[JaoSming]

Same way Miz returned a week later after getting "fired" a while back, as The Calgary Kid.

yep, Same Old Shit. looks like svr's 2011 repetitive universe mode is pretty sim

[Andrew]

They truly captured Michael Cole's dull commentary, too.

[Lean]

I miss JeriShow.

...and their entrance theme.

But my favorite tag team still goes to RVD and Booker T

[Andrew]

Much better than the Rated RKO theme Edge and Orton used when they were a tag team:

Liked the angle, liked them as a team, just not a good mash-up of their themes.

In the future, there will be no anti-drug PSAs and ad campaigns, no Cartoon All-Stars to the Rescue or after-school specials, no Reefer Madness or scare-tactic pamphlets. They'll just show that video, perhaps with a short epilogue to really drive the point home.

the Booker T & Goldust entrance was epic

[deihatein]

I wish WWE would focus on tag-teams again

[Andrew]

If they end up unifying the other belts and put an end to the brand split, that might help the tag division a bit. Less belts that need to be defended on PPV, more wrestlers that could be paired up and made into legitimate teams.

Juan Cena = Mr America

[Murat]

Bwahahahaha. Learn losing, kid.

Anyway, I'm so happy that awesome one won the WWE.
He said these words when THQ was making talks with him:

I will be WWE Champion. Sounds sweet, doesn't it? The path I'm taking is leading me to it. You will read in big, bold letters very soon:

THE MIZ: WWE CHAMPION

I think the kid is imitating the Undertaker.

As I said, that's the problem with MITB these days. Exactly when it's cashed in can be a surprise but so far it's been cashed in basically the same way every time except with RVD and every MITB winner has been successful in winning the championship upon cashing it in. So in other words if someone wins MITB, you know they're definitely getting a title reign at some point and history would suggest it will happen as soon as they cash it in. In its own way, it's hotshot booking and telegraphs what's going to happen, even if the precise moment it happens isn't a foregone conclusion.

You are right, all of them used to cash in.

CM Punk (2-time winner, WHC)
Edge (winner 2005, WWE)
Jack Swagger (winner Wrestlemania 2010, WHC)
Kane (winner MITB 2010 (SD), WHC)
Mr. Kennedy (winner 2007, WHC*)
Rob Van Dam (winner MITB 2006, Intercontinental (there was a match for MITB against Benjamin at Backlash 2006))
The Miz (winner MITB 2010 (RAW), WWE)

*Edge won the MITB due to injury of Mr. Kennedy.

[deihatein]

So that's why Mr. Kennedy loses his MITB to Edge. Was pissed off by that back then

[Andrew]

Yeah, that and a Wellness violation pretty much ended his chances of getting a big push in the WWE. Then Orton's backstage pull got him fired.

[Andrew]

Came across this:

[buzzy]

I like that he has a new finisher where he actually "kicks his opponent's fucking head in".

ala Sweet Chin Music?

[Andrew]

First look at "Juan Cena".



Totally not John Cena. Could have at least made a couple more changes to the ring attire.

[deihatein]

It's Rey Mysterio cousin, in steriods
