WWE Raw & Smackdown Weekly Thread

-- The story going around right now regarding Eugene is that he lost his room key in the hotel, so when the Somas kicked in he collapsed in the lobby. it’s likely that if he had his key and made it to his room, nobody would have ever known or said anything.

-- For those wondering, it’s unknown whether Ashley Massaro will pose in Playboy again under this name. She has posed before under the name Ryan Mackenzie. She very recently appeared in Maxim Magazine in some very revealing photos. Ashley continues to be praised backstage for her work ethic and desire to improve her skills. However, the same thing was said about Christy Hemme before she got fired.

i have to say im not too excited for our upcoming ppv, all the matches besides the hell in a cell match sound pretty dull, and a hell in a cell match sucks unless mick foley is participating, i doubt either undertaker or randy orton will even go on top of the cell, they will basically fight like any other match and throw each other into the cell a few times and thats it, BORING! just like batista vs. triple h

That's it. Time to go to electrified hell in a cell. That would add some spice when somebody is thrown into the cage. Even just watching them act like they are getting shocked would be pretty entertaining.

:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: Ouch....I'm figuring the only WWE superstars that would do that, would be Mankind and......well, they'd have to bring back Terry Funk.

Well they wouldn't really electrify it, just show some staged electric arcs running through it in the beginning that the FX people put there and the rest of the time they would just pretend they are getting shocked. Or they could just put a very low amount of current through it. It would be just enough to help the wrestlers along without doing any harm.

man i just wanna see the undertaker go through the top of the cell, that would be sweet, or hell just an RKO to the undertaker on the top of the cell, he doesnt have to go through, just an RKO on it would be suitable for me:thumbsup:

The R.K.O is currently the best finishing move. The fans went crazy when he did it on the Big Show during the Survivor Series match.

The RKO....a slightly modified Diamond Cutter. IMO DDP did it the best. The reason it was so over at SS was because they were all doing their finishers to Show, nothing really special about it.

IMO The Last Ride or the Tombstone Piledriver are the best current finishers.

 

[Trigger1286]

I always loved the Diamond Cutter but I think the R.K.O. is better because Orton actually jumps to do it. While DDP just grabbed the guy's head and performs it. Orton is younger and more athletic, so when he does it there's a great deal of excitement.

 

[member20672]

I just don't get excited when Orton does the RKO. Its a good move, but not that big on the hype, the impact also seems minimal, especially to the cranial region.

I have a bunch more saved images that are new shots of Jackie, but I need someone else to post in that thread before I can add them(the board rules are restraining it)

The best finishing move... well maybe not the best, but the one i loved the most, was the Stunner by Stone Cold. I remember he did it to Vince McMahon countless number of times.

The People Elbow by the Rock was pretty good also, IMO.

Definetly the Stunner is my favorite, but Trigger was speaking of the best current, thats why I didn't mention it.

I actually like the Rock, but the people's elbow was pretty lame. He just ran across the ring a few times and elbowed the guy. If some newbey did it instead the person that was considered the greatest thing in wrestling at the time everybody would have thought it was dumb.

There have been some lame moves in wrestling over the years, but my least liked is Scotty to Hotty's the Worm. I can go to the kitchen, make a sandwich, and get back before he finishes it.

Another one I don’t like is the chock slam. Even a simple boot to the face looks like it would hurt a lot more.

This past weekend I have been watching the best of Raw DVD's and I have come up with some things that I miss on the show:

Stables: Remember all the big stables, The Ministry, The Corporate Minsitry, DX, The Nation, The Union etc.

Good title defenses on Raw: When was the last time there was a great heavyweight title match with some stipulation(cage, first *****, ladder, etc.)

Wrestlers wearing jeans: Now-a-days it seems like they all have to wear tights. It just seemed more real when guys like Stone Cold, Bart Gunn, Davey Boy Smith and so would wear just normal jeans to their matches.

The Attitude Era: Easily argued as the best the WWE had to offer.

A few other things but these were some key things I noticed. Any thoughts? Any other feelings?

Undertaker's tombstone was one of the best finishers.till they made him hold them so high you just knew their head went no where near the canvas.This was just because of what happened to Stonecold.When Owen Hart (R.I.P) piledrived him wrong and injured his neck in a match.

Tell you what I miss a big build up to a match that would go for a couple of months.Not a few weeks and the 2 wrestlers involde have about 5 bouts before and after the so called big PPV match.

 

[New Scott]

My favourite finisher is the "Back To The Future" piledriver, also called the Money Maker when done by *** Kash. This video is from a show I taped in July 2005, click on the link below and it is the second link on the list.

Hmmmmm...............



According to a source within WWE, one wrestler is in worse shape than any wrestler who lived through an addiction to pain pills.

Reportedly, the wrestler is "incoherent" when away from WWE television, but is able to get himself in good enough shape to work through the health problem.

It is not known if this is the same wrestler that The Torch said was on "death watch" in a report a few weeks ago.
