  1. So The Rock is a pre-order exclusive (for the first few months anyway) for WWE '12. I find that a little surprising as he has reliably been a legend available to all players. I guess I will have to pre-order to job Dwayne out to CM Punk mwahahaha.

    The roster reveal will come after Summerslam I believe. Excited for that, though I am yearly disappointed by seemingly obvious exclusions. Last year I was upset Great Khali and the NXT guys didn't originally make it into the game. Some of the NXT guys were later added, but still, I would have loved to have had Daniel Bryan and Kaval in SVR11.

    i heard you'll only be able to play as him via satellite

  2. I have tons of respect for Mysterio don't get me wrong.I just don't know really why I don't feel him as world champ.I loved his early WCW days I think my opinion turned when his filthy animals gimmick started.(i.e. when he lost his mask).He was a high flyer when he first hit the WWE,but has toned it down.

    Safety and career extenstion is partly the reason.Dude does do some great things in the ring.Both matches he had last night were great.The one with Miz was better IMO.I do think they did it wrong last night.They shouldn't have gave it to Rey just to have him drop it less then 2 hours later.Why not just make it a triple threat to begin with.

    Thta's the joy of wrestling different fans taste spark different feelings.But hey at least the WWE has us interested more again.Usually the Summer is the slooooooooow boring time

  3. finally! Mark Henry is vicious! it's about time for the "BIG" fella! i've been tired of his whimpy storylines. now he is acting like the world's strongest man.....run through people! stand up to Show and rock Kane! i love it! lol

    only issue with Henry is every time they give him that push he gets hurt....hopefully he stays healthy this time

  4. the only exciting thing to me about the show tonight was that it was in my local area (Hampton, VA), sure, some of the matches were decent. i absolutely loved Triple H's dialogue with Truth and the "invisible" people. lol

    but to see Rey lose and Cena win ....again..and then...to see Morrison and J.R. return. i was like...blah! then...Punk comes out without a mic and holds up the EXACT same belt that Cena has? c'mon! Weeeeeeakkkkkk! guess they are pushing for a unification storyline.

    ~Mili

    yeah I was thinking about hitting the card myself but had to work.Was a pretty ok crowd for WWE in VA but they were still silent.I don't think Punk got the response they thought he would.Sorry wrong town lol

  5. reminds me of the Shawn vs. Razor deal back around Wrestlemania X. We had 2 IC champs at the time.Just finished Raw as I had to work tonight.

    Mysterio winning at the beginning was predictable but again I don't feel Rey as a World champ.IC or US yeah.

    Maybe Mr. Ziggles gets a decent push,but right now he reminds me too much of Billy Gunn.Again don't think so?Watch some old Billy matches and watch the mannerisms.Kinda the same.Not discredtiting Dolph just saying the similarities are there.

    Triple H had me rolling with R Truth,that was some funny stuff.Don't really care about JR'S return one way or the other.Cool he is back but wasn't pumped either.

    Jomo being back is nice buuuuuuut will HE get a push?

    Michael Cole in HHH's gear was disgusting but the Browski got a match lol.Are they going to delve into the whole him interupting the tag champs again soon tho?

    I really like Melina's all black outfit even if she is the pass around girl.

    Del Rio and Kofi was decent,it really does seem they are trying to rev up this youth movement on RAW.

    Cena winning back the interim title was forseeable. When Cult Of Personality played I was confused then was like damn! But it's funny for a dude without a contract he gets music and a video lol.And if he was signed back why the title matches?

    All in all give Raw a 8 outta 10 Punk with a mic coulda been the evening tho

  6. you know watching Smackdown from Friday and they just replayed the whole Vince is fired thing,and honestly I think they missed a golden opportunity.When they showed Triple H walking up the ramp and turning back to look at the ring,I think they should have had Hunter give that old school smirk he used to have.That I got you smirk.....cmon! he just pulled the company out from under Vince...the Cerebral Assassin strikes again.Think that could have made for a little spice on the story

  8. Jr tweeted that Lawler has a staph infection in his knee. So yeah like jo said injury. Hell in february when TNA was in Virginia they did an autograph session with Ric Flair like that.It was 20 bucks but you got a photo and at the time he was a heel.well he is a heel now. Hell in that same show I got Beer Money and BEautiful PEoples(madison,lacey,and velvet) autographs also.I don't know what's going on but if Jeff is living the heel persona he better remember its the fans that make or break you in the business. dope

  9. Like I said I hope this is only personal issues, like a family emergency keeping him away, I am still not over them getting rid of Jim Ross in favor of Michael Cole. If they replace Jerry as well I'm going to be even more mad. I understand the sense of getting younger but damn not on commentary!

    I am not sure they got rid of Ross for younger talent 100%.I know his health was an issue.Not sure if that's the whole story.I know he is still in talent relations.Now King was let go or quit years ago after they released the Kat his wife at the time.I hope it's personal reasons also.Since he isnt yelling puppies every 5 seconds I can deal with him.

  10. If you didn't know by now, Raw will be in the UK tonight, meaning they taped Raw earlier in the afternoon. I'm not going to post any spoilers but I did just want to let you guys know that 1 person will be missing from Raw tonight, Jerry Lawler.

    http://www.ewrestlingnews.com/headlines/Jerry_Lawler_Not_At_RAW_-_Details_Inside.php

    Like it says above, Jerry is not at the show, I hope this only means that there are some personal issues(family emergency, etc) that came up that didn't allow Jerry to be at Raw tonight, and that I hope this isn't the start of phasing out Jerry Lawler from the Raw Commentary booth. Wow.... this is the first Raw that I remember that hasn't been called by either Jim Ross or Jerry Lawler. As far as I know Raw has always had 1 of them on commentary.

    thats actually a good research question.I will look into it!

  11. So I still don't know what to feel about the Turning Point PPV. last night.

    Robbie E. going over Jay Lethal ticked me off.Lethal has been a workhorse for that company and to have a newcomer come in and beat him is frustrating.Specially one with a stupid Jersey Shore gimmick.

    Tara vs Mickie was just a brawl.Not even a good one at that,but fun to watch.Wink Wink.

    Team 3d losing to the MCMG I can deal with,but I really don't feel that was the end of the Dudleys(screw you Vince).They reportedly signed a new deal with TNA so who knows.

    Tommy vs RVD was pretty much what was expected.Back and forth with RVD winning.Tommy Dreamer the ultimate jobber.

    The Fortune vs EV 2.0 super tag match was well ...not that great.Aj Styles and Beer Money being in a huge tag match instead of spotlight matches is a waste.

    Samoa Joe vs Jarrett was disappointing.Another talent in Joe not being pushed.

    Pope vs Abyss was not done right either.Having Pope bring out the"CONGREGATION" then having Bischoff pay them off really?Abyss is the Kane of TNA.lol

    The Main event of Hardy vs Morgan was ok for the fact it had to be a last minute match.With Hardy hitting Anderson high with a chairshot giving him a legit concussion.(if you say Reaction Anderson had a hole in the back of his head.Morgan could be a beast if pushed correctly.Not great mic skills but still decent,and I have to admit Hardy as a heel is actually working.Knew Jeff wouldnt drop the title,but still when will Morgan get his time.

  12. If the Lesnar-Taker thing actually would've happened, the idea probably would've been to promote a mega-bout with Lesnar as the UFC Champion, either competing in a match with Taker (unlikely) or reffing Taker's match with another big name like John Cena (as rumored to be planned). I can see that pulling in HUGE buy-rates, even if there's no WWE title on the line.

    you hearing Cena? I am hearing Barrett.Sheamus would be nice to.Taker has a pretty decent list of WM opponents and not alot of big names left to add.Obvioulsy there is Rock and Austin.....but I wanna see Taker/Jericho!

  13. Yes I know but I thought I would throw it out there. Let me ask you guys, since the whole Lesnar/Taker thing was planned and was suppose to take place in a press conference if Brock won, what do you think the plan was between them?

    I figure Taker wouold have done some jaw jacking in the back of the room led to a face to face.

    Makes me wonder tho are Dana White and Vince Mcmahon working on something with all this? It came as a surprise to me tho because Taker goes to all of Brock's fights and has stated they were friends in the past.When I saw the stare down I was wondering what the hell?

    But seriously if there is to be some sort of Lesner as ref thing I really hope that Taker don't lose the streak due to a screw job.Hell I hope it doesn't end period but I could live with a decent putover.He will come back at the Rumble or beging to come back,and mess with Barrett.Maybe Barrett wins at Survivor Series and sets up some sort of triple threat between him,Orton and Cena. but I am remembering the whole buried alive when he started coming for Kane.He still has to deal with Kane when he comes back.Then mve onto Barrett.But I see a gauntlet match against Nexus,or a week by week or show by show decimation of the lower memebers of Nexus.

    We are almost at my favorite time of year.Rumble to Mania is the best in my opinion,and with the possibility of the Unification of the World Title looming(possibly)it could be more interesting because we are seeing that you don't need a title to get over as in the past where they thought to give a guy a push we had to throw a strap on him.

    3 Titles Unified,IC,and US is fine. Remember back when there was only World and IC?I do think they could possibly have a cruiserweight belt tho they are getting a decent amount of smaller guys again.
