Re: The Wrestling thread
Paul is the best thing they can do for the WWE. He's always been awesome, even in his NWA days. He made the whole Brock angle look real.
Loved that Brock told HHH to fuck off. 
X-Pac got fat. HBK's PG comedy routine is, and has been, completely lame, but it's always good to see him.
Re: The Wrestling thread
I thought the HHH/steph/paul segment was pretty good. Paul is so good on the mic that he blends truth and story so very well. He prolly meant all he said. Steph did well too.
No Stone Cold did suck. It was an alright show, The Undertaker looks retarded without hair. Lita's body is so fucking tight. haha:
Triple H > Brock. I loved that segment. Steph and Paul were great and Triple H is always awesome.
The Undertaker does look incredibly stupid without hair
Lita looked fucking amazing. Her body was on fire.

Yeah really. I assumed that was a lock.
I was shocked there was no Stone Cold
The Rock is great but it's fucking lame that he promos his matches 6+ months in advance. Royal Rumble he's gonna fight for the title? 
HBK's PG gimmick has always been lame. Too bad cause like ID said even he knows it.
CM Punk going heel instead of Cena was lame as hell. Gimme a fucking break. Cena's good guy persona has been beaten to death. Having Punk turn was so lazy, cliche, expected and flat out stupid.
Re: The Wrestling thread
What I like about it is that they're building up a Punk/Rock feud and not another stupid Cena rehash. Punk can be a much better heel (and he's much more intersting as a heel than face, imo) than Cena, which we all know isn't going to happen. There's really no one that interesting to have feud with Rock on that current roster.
This would also be a perfect spot to bring in Stone Cold.
I have to say, I loved the heel turn on Rock. And the pop from the crowd when Punk jumped him reminded me of the attitude era.
Re: The Wrestling thread

He had knee surgery recently and was in physical therapy and no shape to get in the ring.
I've given up on WWE turning Cena heel. As long as he moves merchandise, he'll remain a face despite evidence that most of the fanbase hates him.
If the Rock wins the title at the Rumble, they'll have to work around him defending the title at Elimination Chamber PPV in February. It can be done but they just have to work around it.
I really don't want to see Cena-Rock round 2 at Wrestlemania 29.
Re: The Wrestling thread
The 20 year anniversary for RAW is next year, so no big whoop he missed this. It'll probably be a bigger show next year.
What would be cool is have Punk join Heyman and Lesnar's team, and have them cause some interference for Punk to beat Rock at RR (that "shelves him" a few weeks) and then win the title against Punk at WM.
Re: The Wrestling thread
Kevin Nash has been campaigning to reform the N.W.O. with Punk as the leader -- possibly for the Royal Rumble.
Usually I'd be against this as being something stale, but in reality, they need to do something. That strong heel turn on Rock and they blow it the next week, by having the most vague non-reason for his Rock attack. I can't believe I got sucked into watching RAW again, when I knew they don't know what to do with Punk.
And Jesus, Lawler is friggin lame. He's a perverted asshole. That's why people liked him. Now he's PG face. It's sickening. Vince needs to give it up and concentrate on spending millions on his wife's horrible political campaigns that she keeps losing.

Cosign this. Lawler's been friggin unlistnable for YEARS. I loved him during the late 90s-early part of the decade but he's been phoning it since then.
Actually, Linda's political aspirations are only a portion of the WWE money drain. They've spent millions on trying to launch the WWE network but that seems to be in question as they have already been turned by Direct TV (or Dish Network. WWE network was supposed to debut this year but that has been pushed back again.
They continue to dump money into WWE Films even when that division isn't very profitable at all.
In 2010 WWE stock was worth $18.64, a few weeks ago it dropped to $7.86. That's a lot of money to lose.
Don't get me wrong, WWE won't be going out of business anytime soon but there are some major red flags here. Personally, I don't know why they just don't can the WWE films division and just spend more time on money on the DVD releases. They have the rights to most of the wrestling footage. They're sitting on a goldmine in old NWA/WCW tape libraries.
