Even though he lost, swagger went over REALLY well, this guy has some skills and wont be on ECW for too long. Cena is doing another movie so i knew he'd drop the belt, hope edge gets for longer than a month now! Dont care about HHH, but thank god Orton is now champ.
But it was an TRULY AWFUL PPV
:shock: what!? i thought it was an awesome PPV, not a bad match at all and the 2 main event matches were brilliant, i actually enjoyed it more than WrestleMania!
Just watched RAW as i recorded it!
Some good matches, all i can say is Hornswoggle!!!
Sucks Orton has the title, hope Batista takes it off him.
WWE is getting so predictable its crap now.

Finally got a chance to watch the PPV last night, and I kindof have to agree with him, it wasnt so special. I actually ended up fast forwarding half of it as it was unexciting.
Christain carried swagger, while he is getting better, he still isnt there
Jericho/Steamboat was horrid... Especially Steamboat trying to figure out how to put the figure 4 on Jericho, while he pretended to be stuck.
Kane/CM Punk was just sortof thrown in there halfassed
Santena thing really needs to end soon lol.... Its only funny for so long
Both belts still on Raw will have to change soon enough (expected it at the end of the last man standing match).
I did like however both at the beginning, and at the end of the pay per view, they put Edge and Christain side by side. You know that is going to end up going somewhere down the road.

Santino is hilarious, but I still wish they would take his character a bit more serious.
Even though WWE hasnt been that good IMO since 09 began I do look forward to buying just Wrestlemania 25, wont buy other PPV this year unless TNA has new ones.
The matches I look forward to are Hardy v Edge for title, hope Batista snaps Orton.
I want Hardy to win against Edge.
I watched last nights Raw this morning and i have to say it was one of the better episodes this year!

Im enjoying Smackdown much more, i always have in way, even when they have had the worst superstars.
With Chris Jericho, Edge, Undertaker all there its awesome
Plus mid card talent of Shelton Benjamin, John Morrison and Dolph Ziggler adds to the awesomness.
Its a shame Smackdown lost Matt Hardy, Mr Kennedy ...... Kennedy and TBK but Smackdown is still better, or as good ol' JR said in his blog Smackdown kicks Raws ***! :lol:

I'm sick of tired of the titles changing hands want them all to keep there belts, Edge deserves a solid reign and not stupid little transitional reign, I say let him get a clean win over Jeff, I also think the same applies to Randy, let him beat Batista on his own to give him some realy credibility because right now I think he's losing a bit, especially with fat overweight Shane beating him up and Legacy having to save him :pissed:
Hope Christian retains aswell =)
santinomarella
05-08-2009, 18:38
So far my predictions for Judgment Day are:
Edge to beat Jeff Hardy
Randy Orton to beat Batista
Christian to beat Jack Swagger
& John Cena to beat Big Show
like yourmumsface17 said both Edge and Orton need lenghty title reigns, ecspecially Edge, im sure his longest title reign must be about 2 months :mad:
For once i actually hope Cena wins :o im getting annoyed with all the haters of him! :pissed:
SharkOutofWater
05-08-2009, 18:41
Mark my words, Orton will have the title for at least 5-6 months. They are going to give the belt to someone and let them run with it, like HHH used to do.
Edge will win as well, as Jeff most likely wont be in WWE in a short period of time, so they arnt going to give him the belt I wouldnt imagine.
justintheman99
05-08-2009, 19:05
The era of Orton will be a long one this time around. Frankly the fans feel it, and the WWE feel it that Orton is the future of their company. Currently he IS the man, and no one is stopping him.
Orton had his chance when he was champ last year before HHH beat him, hope Batista takes the title off him, no more Orton.

Hopefully Batista learns to be better, or drives off a cliff.
Orton is precisely 1999999999x better than Batista.
I hope Sting wins the TNA title, TNA interests me more then WWE.
Incase anyone didnt know this, the WWE is planning to turn Batista heel in the coming months, which would make sense because RAW really only has 1 big time Heel in Randy Orton, and Big Show I guess? And on the otherside you have HHH, Cena, HBK(when he returns) and Batista.

SharkOutofWater
05-11-2009, 13:50
Why is HBK out??
Same reason HHH is out :p
Vacation time.... be with their family etc....
as for Batista, they have been slowly setting up the story since he came back to turn him heel, but with the 2 main faces taking vacation time (and cena supposively going to go make another movie shortly), they are just doing it slowly (and I really expected HHH to come back heel when he does, as he just does it so well, but as long as Orton has the title, it is hard for them to do that I think now that they just did this previous storyline).
That makes sense, Id rather Batista be the heel anyway, havent really seen enough of it since he fought Triple H in 2005.
did anyone watch this weeks Raw?
Nothing spectacular happened, but the highlight was definitely seeing Kelly Kelly's thong!!

I am too, but unfortunatley i dont think it will happen, Kennedy is injury prone and his injuries are always lenghty so i doubt he will be given a big push until he can prove he can stay healthy for a certain amount of time.
I have heard a few rumours that when he returns the king of the Ring may be coming back and he will be playing a big role in that.
Who do you guys think will be The Brian Kendricks tag team partner?

Just read this on a wrestling news site.
In an interesting trivia note, this week in 1999 WWF RAW held the most-watched wrestling match in history. On May 10, 1999, The Undertaker & HHH & Shane McMahon vs. Steve Austin & The Rock & Vince in a six-man tag, with Shawn Michaels as the referee, scored a 9.2 cable rating. The overall rating for the entire show was 8.1. As previously noted, this week's episode of RAW did a 3.3 rating.
8.1!! for a Raw rating is amazing!
and now the rating are around 3 & 4, where have all those fans gone!? :shock:
justintheman99
05-13-2009, 14:30
They haven't gone anywhere, but instead wait for the WWE to wake-up and realize their PG rating isn't doing ANYTHING positive for their product. Also the storylines that last roughly 2-3 weeks as well, plus.......well I could keep going for ever here about the many negatives in the WWE right now. :lol:

Lol, as you can see in dc89's post, they have reduced the fans getting excited over the littlest things again...stacy, torrie, sable (hated her) and the likes did way more in their days.
PG rating sucks.... The first time I even had any respect for orton, was when he took those thumbtacks in the back against foley.
The hardy matches, and a few others could have been alot better if they were allowed to do blood etc (even if it is fake blood, I dont care :p)

HAHA i am still enjoying WWE at the moment, but i do agree i am not liking the PG era.
I guess WWE went PG because of Cena and his HUGE following from the younger generation. :bang:
justintheman99
05-13-2009, 14:37
WWE right now has gone back to what they were in the 80's and that was PG, but of course with much LESS actual wrestling. When the 90's came around they entered the whole "attitude" era and catered more to the older audience and gained much success from it. So why would they cater back to the younger viewers once again, and change their product so drastically?

Both WWE and The Denver Nuggets playoff game are currently scheduled to be played at the Pepsi center next monday evening.
Kobe Bryant (http://www.tsn.ca/nba/teams/players/?name=kobe+bryant) and the Los Angeles Lakers are scheduled to be at the Pepsi Center in Denver next Monday night.
Problem is, so are John Cena and a bunch of wrestlers -- and they called it first.
World Wrestling Entertainment said it is booked at the arena for an episode of Monday Night Raw, the same night the Nuggets are slated to host the Lakers in Game 4 of the Western Conference finals.
WWE chairman Vince McMahon told The Associated Press he doesn't believe there was "any malice, just ineptness," on the part of Kroenke Sports, which owns the team and the building, but can't tolerate the company "just simply throwing us out on our ear."
Without a quick resolution, McMahon plans to send his trucks to Denver.
"That's what we intend to do," he said. "We're going to show up."
WWE spokesman Robert Zimmerman said the organization secured the Pepsi Center last Aug. 15 and has already sold more than 10,000 tickets for the event. He says the organization expects a sellout, with tickets ranging from US$20 to $70.
McMahon blamed Kroenke for not believing his team was good enough to still be playing in mid-May.
"The fans in Denver had a lot more faith in making the playoffs than the owner," he said in a phone interview from Louisville, where Raw was taking place later Monday night.
Denver is usually done with basketball by now. The Nuggets had lost in the first round five straight years, but as the No. 2 seed in the West are in the conference finals for the first time since 1985.
Paul Andrews, executive vice president of Kroenke Sports Enterprises, issued a statement Monday night concerning the scheduling conflict, saying: "We are working with the WWE to resolve the situation amicably."
The league, which handles scheduling during the playoffs, is leaving it up to the team and the WWE to figure things out.
"The Nuggets and the WWE understand that the date of Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals cannot be changed," NBA senior vice president Mike Bass said. "We are confident that the Pepsi Center and the WWE will resolve their scheduling conflict."
Zimmerman said the Pepsi Center confirmed in March with the WWE that the organization wanted to keep the May 25 date, and sent a contract on April 15 -- the final night of the regular season -- which WWE signed and returned. Tickets went on sale April 11.
The conflict didn't arise until Sunday, when the Lakers beat the Houston Rockets in Game 7 of the Western Conference semifinals. Had the Rockets won, Denver would have had home-court advantage in the next round, hosting Games 1 and 2 and putting the May 25 game in Houston.
As of Monday afternoon, the schedule on the Pepsi Center's Web site listed WWE for 6:30 p.m. local time and Western Conference finals Game 4 at 7 p.m. Tickets for the wrestling event could still be purchased online.
McMahon said he couldn't guess how much he would make from the show, but that cancelling wasn't easy because of how much is involved in moving his equipment, plus filling its obligated time slot on USA Network. Litigation is likely -- but he plans to be putting on a card.
"When you do have a date, you plan everything around it," he said, adding, "we may be holding an event in a parking lot somewhere."
Will be interesting to see how they find a new arena etc in such short notice, as I am sure they will end up having the playoff game there for sure.

Ric Flair looks really out of shape.
Jeff hardy is not a Heavyweight wrestler, he should only compete for the intercontinental title.
It truly is a MUCH better experience when you see it live. The promos seem much more real cause you can boo them or cheer them, and the fireworks are so loud and just get the place rocking. It was truly an electrifying moment when I saw The Rock vs. Hogan. :wink:
Dam that was a boring match to watch, I love The Rock but Hogan is just a poor wrestler, I hate watching all the old wrestlers like Flair doing 'come backs' its just annoying, wooden performances.
Anyone else find themselves laughing at Batista's run? He runs like he's just got off a horse and he balls hurt.

Steamboats return around WM was very impressive, i was impressed with how well he performed in the ring, but most legends who return for matches are never very good at all, just look at Snuka at WM 25 (No dis-respect to him though)

e wrestling news
As we reported earlier, Mr. Kennedy was officially released from World Wrestling Entertainment yesterday. This is coming as a shock to many. Kennedy had returned to Raw on Monday after rehabbing from a badly injured shoulder. Kennedy ended up injuring his wrist after taking a RKO from Randy Orton.
It is being reported that Randy Orton & Kennedy had words backstage after Raw went off the air, it wasn't heated, but that Orton told him he had to be careful out there so he wouldn't injure anyone in the ring. There wasn't any other complaints backstage.
A possibility of a reason why Kennedy was released was the pull that Orton has with Vince McMahon. Another possibility is that because he is injury prone, and WWE wouldn't be able to capitalize on their work on his character. The ladder of the two is more likely the reason he was released. It should also be noted that Vince soured on Kennedy last year when he was injured. A wrist injury during his first match back with the company likely didn't help matters.
More soon.
Damn that sneaky Orton =(

If it had something to do with Orton, then you should watch the main event back, when Kennedy back drops Orton after countering his head lock, Orton lands quite bad and he looks quite mad afterwards.

During last weeks Raw main event, Kennedy back dropped Orton and Orton landed on his shoulder (the same one he injured) Orton then spoke with Kennedy backstage about it, apparently it was a friendly discussion, but despite that people think that is what lead to Kennedys release.
Kennedy posted another video on his facebook recently, nothing important, but in it you see his PS3 lol, good to see he is a gaming fan.

Hey guys. Just thought I let everyone know that I'm a big fan of WWE and that my favorite WWE wrestlers so far are Undertaker, John Cena, Triple H, Batista and Jeff Hardy.

He was in the doghouse several times for hurting people. If he was at the top level, he'd inhure top talent, and the WWE wasn't standing for it. Add that to his injury prone body that has messed up storylines. . .I can see why they did it.

I don't see the appeal of Umaga, his Spike finisher was stupid and I saw him on the mic once and it just felt weird, like Kane talking for the first time.
Jeff losing his belt was probably for the best as he's injured his shoulder and broken his finger. But I hope he gets another shot and a longer title reign soon. But I really hope Edge doesn't have another title shot for a long time, or at least win for a long time, let the others have a reign now.

He's got no skills in the ring. Just a big guy. Mark Henry vs Khali would be so boring.Henry is just a fat **** who can't wrestle for ****.
Tend to agree, Khali, for his size has no ring presence. He's got zero ability and when he was trying to be a heel he kept smiling and laughing. I just flick past his matches.
Thought the Trump angle was gonna end abruptly, theres no way someone would make Raw free + commercial free constantly. I also didn't understand why it would make Vince bankrupt... Trump owned Raw, if he made it free, it'd be out of Trumps own pocket, unless I'm missing something that is god awful writing. I did like the idea of guest GM, I could hear Stone Colds music ringing in my head, he'd make an awesome GM.
Definitely agree about Khali being a poor wrestler and character, even when he was a heel. I'm a lot more convinced by big men like Big Show because he can hold his own in a match and he makes a decent Heel. Then there's big men who have no presence but are pretty good in the ring like Umaga.
I just hate these big men with no potential to be an appealing character. Khali, Vladimir Koslov or whatever, Festus, Sexual Chocolate Mark Henry, amongst others. They're really just there so Cena could beat them and be everyone's hero. Which are boring storylines by the way.

Is anyone else here sick and tired of the whole Orton vs. HHH feud? *sigh* If I have to see another match with these two guys I think I will pull out my hair and eat rusty spoons!
Also I am sick and tired at how weak they always portray Orton. This guy is the champ, and the future. Then they make the guy lose in no time to Mark Henry? Give me a break.....
It seems as the weeks roll on by I become more and more frustrated with their wrestling product, yet I still always watch it. Perhaps I just like to complain? :suspect:

WWE in general has gone downhillb ALOT, whehter it be the crap booking or the silly storylines or the PG thing. Raw is suffering a lot and Smackdown has gone from strength to strength. I love watching smackdown. Y2J, Rey, John Morrison, Jeff, Edge etc
Raw is a bit of a joke, where is Kofi or MVP or anyone else as of late other than HHH or Cena? I love seeing Orton, but he is getting booked poorly.
EDIT....JUST read raw, forgot it was on! WTF!? Orton getting pinned by Henry, the trades, MVP going up against 'i wont put anyone over' HHH?!
Loving Y2J and Edge together, and they can go on any show they want!
Hmmm, could the the awesom jack swagger be joining leagacy? i read that Orton wanted Tyson kidd(Hart dynasty) but swagger would be great!!
The RAW report actually read like a decent RAW, might have to watch it now!
FURTHER EDIT....next weeks raw.

Im also really loving CM Punks booking, i wasnt a fan of him before but after seeing him in Roh and his SLOW heel turn(which is being turn excellently), im all for him now.
I am also tired of HHH/Cena matches.

I am just hoping that very soon MVP will actually get a decent push at something on Raw. So far it seems to be a bad move for his career and any other guy who ventured onto that show as their presence is completely overshadowed by none other than HHH and John Cena. *sigh*

If MVP is going to get a push it would have to be pretty soon because he's not getting any younger. BTW How old is he? I remember that he's over 33.
How could they put Swagger in Legacy? He's not a second or third-generation superstar is he?Just wonderin'.
They didn't put Swagger in legacy.I just think jack swagger was just kissing up to Orton.

Odd though they had a draft after the "draft". You would figure much thought and time on the draft would go into play to make sure they could get ALL the match-ups they would want. So why the sudden need to move so many other guys around? Personally I think lately the WWE doesn't have a clue if they are coming or going. The whole Trump angle is a good showing of this too, as the angle happened and was over with within only 2 weeks.

I guess with the Orton-HHH thing, it's going the distance. It's just a shame its getting stale now.
I thought the Cena-Miz & HHH-MVP matches on Monday were silly. As if they had a chance, I just wish once Cena or HHH would have a shock defeat and give them a title shot set back or something, just spice it up a little and add a hint of realism, plus who wants to see Orton-HHH for the rest of the PPV's this year?

Basically there are the "main" guys.
HHH
Cena
Orton
Batista
Edge
Hardy
These guys are involved within EVERY PPV main event within the last year......
Also I am sick and tired at how weak they always portray Orton. This guy is the champ, and the future. Then they make the guy lose in no time to Mark Henry? Give me a break.....
I don't know, he'd been in a '3 Stages of Hell match' the night before and then Evan Bourne, 500 pounds of talentless meat is alot after that, I guess Orton isn't being portrayed as a superhero like Cena. Which I feel is more real, I do wish they'd stop making him look like a ***** everytime something happens, that isn't in his favour.

I enjoyed the ending of Raw, everyone has been saying how repetitve Raw has been this year and that it is getting boring with all the same talent in the main event, well who would have predicted Mark Henry would be pinning the WWE champion in the main event of Raw.
I have never really liked Mark Henry and have never really enjoyed any matches with the really big wrestlers but that main event was good.
I feel sorry for ECW though, I had starting enjoying ECW lately with all the up and coming talent but now they have lost Bourne, Swagger, Henry, Finlay and Hart Dynasty. The only worth while replaces were Shelton and Regal.
I bet Shelton feels like quiting WWE after being shoved from Raw to ECW.

Not sure about that. Apparently they offered him a push to go for the top tier title and he turned it down. I think that's quite a shame as he's a great competitor. I would love to see someone new as the champion, rather than Triple H constantly getting chances and enforcing "The Glass Ceiling" on the other guys.

Why isn't there anyone on the current roster who can electrify like The Rock, or any pre PG generation superstar?
About the only promos I enjoy today are Chris Jericho's. I like the way he sticks it too all the naive fans in the arenas.
But yeah, The Rock is a hell of an entertainer. I loved it when he came back before WrestleMania 19 and took a heel turn. His jokes were non-stop and hilarious!

Edge suffered what is believed to be a torn Achilles tendon during his match with Jeff Hardy at last night's SmackDown/ECW live event in San Diego. The injury occurred five minutes into the match and...
Yeah. I was lucky enough to get it off of eBay, without getting messed about, like I currently am with another product. <br />

Why? He's great on the mic and in the ring.
I bet that Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase are going to get them. That would suck because they're only getting anywhere in the company because of their fathers' work for it.
I'd like to see Cryme Tyme get a run, or at least a shot.
I'd like to finally see a good tag team rivalry again. The likes of Hardy Boyz vs. Edge & Christian vs. Dudley Boyz. There just hasn't been a good one in a while. DX vs. Rated RKO was promising, but I'd like to see a more epic one. Ideally, the Colons would be involved, or Cryme Tyme.
Dam that blows, Edge was starting to win me over now he'd got that flea ***** off his back, Vicki. <br />

Need more 3 way tag team TLC matches! Those were some of the greatest matches ever. <br />

Saw...
Michaels is injured? I was wondering where he's been.
As for Hardy...I really like him, ever since he was in Hardy Boyz, but I don't think his character is strong enough to be a sustained main eventer like HHH is. They certainly can't have a Hardy-Jericho feud until the others come back, that's gonna be a long time.

WWE probably wont announce it till they know they extent of it.

Wwe.com is rubbish for news anyway!
If he's hurt his achilles, he certainly didn't show any signs whatsoever of being injured last night. He even had his fair share of the match.
I thought that the Colons were going to take the titles off them. It seemed set up perfectly for it (if Edge is injured).
Knew it was going to be a triple threat match at NoC. Typical.

It seems as of late they are planting many seeds to have Dibiase turn his back on Legacy, and well Orton in general. Perhaps the WWE feel it is time to push him more as a singles competitor. Personally I think there is definitely something about him that could take him places very quickly as a singles performer.

Expect to see him turn face soon enough. When Randy Orton punted him in the head before, he took time out and apparently made a WWE film or something. He's expected to turn face to help promote the film - or so this was the case when he took time out.
I could see Ted DiBiase being a good singles competitor. I just think he needs to be a little more... unique in the ring. Have some patented moves of his own. That's his and Cody Rhodes problem atm, but they have time on their side.
To me, Ted DiBiase doesn't seem to have much in his arsenal. He hardly ever seems to do anything impressive. His finisher is pretty good, but then half of it is from his father.
And he seems to be styling himself exactly like Randy Orton. Suddenly he started wearing black wrist bands. Always wears a t-shirt when he's not wrestling, and sorta acts like him in the ring. But I guess there's always the argument that Randy is supposed to be "mentoring" him and Cody Rhodes.

Actually, I was never a big fan of Edge, to be honest. I was waiting for his storyline on his beef with Jeff Hardy to come to a close. A couple weeks ago, I seriously thought that ladder match would seal the deal. Then again, the win was pretty predictable. It's what happened afterwards that surprised me. :lol:
I thought it was more interesting to see him as a tag-team champion alongside Jericho. Before then, it was the same constant drivel about "this is unfair, I want a rematch, you're just trying to be like me, you want to be me, don't you? You will never be me. I'm the best." on and on...
I'm not doubting that I didn't find him entertaining in the ring, though.

House shows can sometimes be the best shows to attend. Since it isn't being put on television the wrestlers have much more control on their own actions, and can therefore make it much more fun for the audience in attendance, and not worry one bit about the audience at home.

I guess they just stick with it because they can appeal to a bigger audience, and childrens' minds are like sponges - they can take anything from the WWE, especially if it's someone like John Cena telling it. And in return, they make millions off of his merchandise.

I'd highly recommend it. I only started watching Smackdown again when I got Sky+ because I couldn't be bothered, but this allowed me to record it. It was alright, and Raw was best.
Now, after the draft, Smackdown is so much better. Raw seems to childish and are just sucking so bad. I feel Smackdown seems to be a little more mature and more entertaining on a whole.
