Just after Summerslam/Unforgiven

[360]

Will the undertaker ever come back in his American Badass style? I prefer that so much more than The Deadman gimmick

[Misawa]

Eugh, that was a horrible gimmick. Completely unsuitable. His original is far better, and am glad for its continuation as of WrestleMania 20.

[mangle]

The deadman gimmick is good, I think stuff like the funeral Edge held for him is pushing it a little but I prefer it. The entrance is one of thebest in WWE.

[CJW93]

His wrestlemania entrances every year are amazing

That's nothing compared to the '90s.

[mangle]

That's nothing compared to the '90s.
What, how far they pushed it or his entrances?

What, how far they pushed it or his entrances?

His character.

Saturday Nights Main event is taped tonight before Raw.

"NBC sent out a press release regarding Jenny McCarthy and other celebrities getting together with WWE for Saturday Night's Main Event to raise awareness for children with Autism. In addition to McCarthy, Toby Keith, Billy Ray Cyrus and Ben Stiller (although he's not listed on the press release) appearing on the show in some form, the press release notes that Carmen Electra, Piers Morgan (judge on NBC show America's Got Talent), James Roday (actor on USA Network's Psych), singer Jewel, and the cast of Nashville Star will be appearing on Saturday Night's Main Event as well"

[mangle]

So is there ANY wrestling?
Like last year they had Matt Hardy MVP boxing match.

[Jericho]

Piers Morgan vs Santino FTW. lmao. I would pay top wonga to watch that.

[GhostFace-]

That was lame.. I was waiting for someone HUGGEEE to come out and have the crowd screaming.. turns out the douche was sitting at the announce table the whole time haha.

I no. i was like wt* hoping john cena would FU him

[mangle]

So can we expect Adamle to die on ECW?
Thus meaning we have Cole to ECW or even JR?
lets just hope they know what they're doing.

[CJW93]

I am sossed off right now with what the story writters have came up with. I too was thinking that wwe would get some one that can actually do sometinh god for the brand, but insted they get a douche tat has been calling ECW matches for what three months?

Also I knew that Regal was reutning soon, but when Shane said how great this "free agent" was but Regal sucks so bad an looked like he was wearing him mums nightware.

[PaulMacC]

Someone tell me whats happening, I havent watched WWE in like 3 months.
I want to start getting back into it.

[Jericho]

Hey Paul

Jericho turns heel
Vince McMahon nearly died again.
WWE were giving away a million dollars everyweek but that stopped
In the draft, WWE title went back to Smackdown, World heavyweight on Raw
CM Punk is World Heavyweight Champion
Undertaker left and is coming back at summerslam
D-Lo Brown returned
K-Kwik/Ron Killings is coming back as 'R-Truth'
Mike Ademle is the new RAW GM.

[Misawa]

D'Lo sucks.
Ron Killings sucks.
Michael Cole sucks.

William Regal is incredible in the ring.

[mangle]

Jim Ross revealed in his blog that Todd Grisham will join Tazz on ECW commentary. "With Adamle focusing on Raw, rumor has it that Todd Grisham will join Tazz on ECW TV show going forward," Ross wrote.

During RAW last night, Mike Adamle gave away the RAW GM announcement to the live crowd. When Shane McMahon's music cued, Adamle left the commentary booth and grabbed a ring mic, only to be told to return to the booth. Shane teased the new announcer was backstage and faced the entranceway, Adamle then proceeded to jump in the ring.

According to several people who attended the event, Adamle's miscue didn't affect how the segment will appear on television but it was obvious he was going to be the new General Manager.

[You]

Adamle is such a **** lol :l

[mangle]

We can wait and see whom will be partnering Tazz from now on, anyone taking bets? Haha

[CJW93]

The only good thing that has come form the gm situation is that, now Adamle is a gm everything he says is scripted and not impreovise, now we dont have to put up with his stupid line like " "have mercy".

Il be watching Ecw tonight.

I actually love him. He makes me laugh. "Jamaican me crazy".

Its Grisham as the new ECW commentator, guess they just needed to ship Adamle outta there.

[Jericho]

I like Ademle (y)

ADEMLE FOR PRIMEINISTER.
Anyone is better than Brown


Regal looked like something out of the village people.

On the show I noticed when Ademle stood up, when they shot the camera on Cena in the ring you could see Ademle walk up to the ring.

[Captain]

Yeah, he never went on cue like he was supposed to. So not only does he make error's in his commentary but also in his appearances :-)

[CJW93]

Great video a collection of mistakes made by Mike Adamle

New Unforgiven poster

[Misawa]

It's really good. I think Batista will be heel.

[CJW93]

Apparently, WWE has plans to release a brand new DVD on the late Eddie Guerrero. Amazon.com has a listing for a future DVD release from WWE entitled Viva La Raza! the Legacy of Eddie Guerrero. The DVD is scheduled to be released on November 11, 2008, two days before the third anniversary of his death.

Great news, the first dvd is great to, but looking forward to this one more

anyones interested in getting it?

I for one am

[mangle]

That posters really good, Batisita is a natural heel so it'll be good to see him turn again.

[CJW93]

I cant see Punks title rign last long, and Cena will end up getting it at Unforgiven, and both Cena and Batista will feud over the title up until Armagedon. I think, but I still like Punk

[newWORLDorder]

Batista is such a boring world champion.

WWE brought Jericho back and what have they done with him title wise? A match with Orton :l

And where is this Brendan Walker? Fgs, big epic TNA dude and theres no more of him :l.

[mangle]

I'm not a fan of this thing WWE are doing, where they don't bother to finish matches for Punk.

Oh and Flair has parted ways with WWE

[Wayne]

I'll definately buy that Eddie Guerrero DVD. Also, I can't see Adamle doing a good job as GM. I feel sorry for him when the crowd/wrestlers take the mick out of him, but a GM role would be rubbish for him.

[CJW93]

The Adamle-era Begins!
August 4, 2008

On Monday night, Shane McMahon appeared on Raw and announced the show’s new General Manager: Mike Adamle. Our fans were shocked to learn that WWE’s flagship program would now be headed up by the absent-minded ECW commentator. Will Adamle be able to take control and command the respect of the Raw roster, or will the mayhem overwhelming the show continue to run unchecked?

On his very first night as Raw GM, Adamle made a number of matches. The biggest of these however, was Raw’s first SummerSlam match: For the first-time ever, John Cena vs. Batista. Recent weeks have seen both Superstars displaying their hunger for championship gold, but their match at SummerSlam will be to determine who is truly the top contender on Raw. With two competitors as intense as Cena and The Animal, will they even make it to SummerSlam before a collision?

Though SummerSlam is right around the corner, there’s plenty to look forward to on the next Raw as well. For the first time since having his right eye severely injured by Chris Jericho at The Great American Bash, Shawn Michaels will appear for an interview on Raw. Y2J has claimed that he ended the career of HBK, will Michaels corroborate this evidence? What will The Showstopper have to say to the man who injured him so severely?

Though he is still gloating about his win over Michaels, Jericho has begun to look forward as well. The man once known as the Ayatollah of Rock ‘n’ Rolla hosted what he announced as the last edition of his talk-show, the Highlight Reel. Y2J shared several clips of a more fun, fan-friendly Chris Jericho, and then let the WWE Universe know that it was a thing of the past. Like a slew of other top Superstars, Jericho has his eyes on nothing short of the World Heavyweight Championship, and communicated as much. Will new GM Mike Adamle be receptive to Jericho’s desire for championship gold? Who will fall into Y2J’s sights next?

For the answers to these questions and more, make sure to tune into Raw, Tuesday Morning at 2am only on Sky Sports 3

The Wrestling Observer Newsletter is reporting that Mick Foley is apparently upset with his current announcing position on Smackdown! According to various sources, Foley is said to be pleased with the announcing job itself, but is becoming increasingly frustrated with Vince McMahon constantly screaming at him through his headphones during broadcasts. It is being reported that Foley is considering leaving the company if his current situation does not change or improve.

[Wayne]

Damn McMahon. He doesn't treat his employees right.

[Heart Break Kid]

:o noo foley is GOD!!!!
hope he dont leave

[Captain]

LOL at tonights RAW. Marella is a really good character especially the way he pronounces names and his overall comedy act is genius :)

He just prounounced Mike Adamle's name as Mike Adimarle haha

[Misawa]

Bath Finex.

[Captain]

Bath Finex.
HAHA ^

Also, Cena & Batista are world tag team champions. Never saw that one coming tbh, I think Mike Adamle is doing an awesome job so far.

[Heart Break Kid]

looool soo long ago on the wwe games i always made batista and cena world tag team champs xD

[newWORLDorder]

Mak Adermalay as Mr. Marella called him, Ademle rocks, apart from his new haircut which makes him look like Dale Winton, he is great, few hiccups, but who cares, its live TV. He has been in the Wrestling business for under a year.


And Chris Jericho looks different, He is smaller than I thought height wise, but he is far more ripped than he used to be. Not a fan of his attire.

And Michaels eye is absolutely screwed isnt it!

[Misawa]

Well Mike doesn't actually make any of the matches, he has zero creative control.

And Michaels' eye is an angle, it's not really damaged.

[newWORLDorder]

You can see Michaels eye is clearly out of shape.

And I know Mike has no control, I mean his speech, some words were stumbling but im sure we only pick them up because we get a kick out of him making mistakes.

[mangle]

You can see Michaels eye is clearly out of shape.

hi makeup people.

Michaels wouldn't be doing something or other at Summerslam if it was a real injury, and besides it would've been leaked onto the net if it had been THAT serious.
And tbh WWE needs to pick up its tag team game, I'm really annoyed that they're champions. Time and time again we've seen "rivals" turned into tag team champs. Michaels and Cena, Miz and Morrison, MVP and Hardy. New look at things pls ?

[Misawa]

He does have a funny eye, but he has that for YEARS.

[mangle]

ECW wasn't fantastic haha. Striker on commentary, as Tazz is doing SD this week to try and extend the Foley Edge angle.
But Evan Bourne is still the best thing about it.

[Captain]

Ric Flair has parted ways with WWE.

[Heart Break Kid]

:o hes finally retired?

[newWORLDorder]

He retired at WM. He has split up with WWE so he can take bookings.

[Heart Break Kid]

ah!!
right
havent been able to watch skysports
virgin package didnt contain them channels
got FX though
but thats not viewable anymore :o

[CJW93]

Flair has to wait 90 days before he can take bookings.
People are already saying that hes heading for tna.
That would be something, it would really help Tna

[newWORLDorder]

Why not watch it on Galaxia?

http://galaxiawrestling.blogspot.com/

I am sure he wont go to TNA, it would totally damage his legacy, he is going to do some work for NWA (Not much wrestling though)

[Misawa]

He retired from the ring, therefore he should not wrestle.

Going to Total Nonsensical Action would damage him greatly. He should just do bookings with special guest roles, etc.

[Jericho]

Im going off WWE. Theres nothing that hooks me in anymore. Its too child orientated. TNA is absolutely gimmicks only. So, I may go back to watching Indies, mainly ROH.

[Misawa]

ROH no longer an indy with its PPV deal. :)

TNA is really awful and I will always be WWE-loyal.

[Wayne]

Same. WWE will always be the top wrestling federation in my opinion.

[CJW93]

Three years time Tna will be up there with the WWE

[Wayne]

Hopefully it won't.

[CJW93]

You hope not?

that would be brilliant,
It would mean we would see three great wwe shows a week becuase they know if they dont they will just go and watch tna and get a better show.
Myabe If you gave Tna a chance and actualy watched one of there shows you would see just how great it is.

Saturday 9pm Bravo

Watch

[Wayne]

Lol good thinking, never thought of it from that perspective. :P

[Misawa]

TNA will get no where near WWE, it was a valiant effort at first, but the cracking seams since birth are crumbling fast. R.I.P. 2002-2005, because everything since that year has been utter garbage. TNA is awful.

[Misawa]

Chris Harris released. :rolleyes: He was destined to fail seeing as he arrived in the worst shape of his life. Guess they had nothing for him. Back to TNA methinks.

[CJW93]

World Wrestling Entertainment has come to terms on the release of Raw Superstar John Cena as of August 7, 2008. WWE wishes John the best in all future endeavors.

[Heart Break Kid]

:O thats a big blow for WWE
he is well... one of THE BEST superstarts there :(

[Misawa]

:O thats a big blow for WWE
he is well... one of THE BEST superstarts there :(

I hope you realise it was a joke...

[Heart Break Kid]

loool as a matter of fact i didnt :P
fow i cant view much on www.wwe.com :(

[CJW93]

It was Chirs Harris that was released not Cena

[mangle]

What was his ring name?

[Misawa]

"Braden Walker". He worked the last ECW episode defeating a local in a terribly boring and uneventful match. His costume is horrible, he looks horrible, he can't work. I'm not surprised he was let go.

[Scouse]

6 superstars have been released & a referee. big daddy v being one of the wrestlers released

[Misawa]

I was surprised to see Nick Patrick go.

[CJW93]

Domino was also relseased to along with Shannon Moore

[Misawa]

Yes, and who cares about them two.

TNA in your sig? TNA really does suck. 2002-2005 it was great, but the middle of that year onwards, it went straight to hell, and if you weren't along for the ride when TNA was actually decent, you missed a product 100x better than the gimmick after gimmick match junk they put on today, thanks to Mr. Vince Russo.

[CJW93]

Compare the rosters

Tna out numbers WWE talent wise

[Heart Break Kid]

yeah but those TNA people made their name for themselves mostly thru
WWE

[Misawa]

Problem with TNA is they just use WWE burn outs. And they don't know how to use their talent, nor know how to book a good show. TNA died from within in 2005.

[mangle]

TNA is VERY gimmicky, Curry manand Shark boy. What on hell is that?

[Misawa]

Well Shark Boy has been in TNA since day one, but he completely sucks. I don't think he even won a single match from 2002 to this year, when he got his rediculous Steve Austin gimmick.

As for Curry Man, that's Chrisopher Daniels in his Puroresu gimmick he uses when he wrestles in Japan. The Prince Justice League is simply pathetic, and apparently Frankie Kazarian is going to be joining it as a masked wrestler who appears in the TNA iMPACT! video game. I think I've already seen a video of that character in the game.

[Misawa]

On the topic of TNA, the Hard Justice PPV just ended. It was terrible. Their idea of a Last Man Standing match is actually a Texas Deathmatch. The main event had a horrible finish and it makes you wonder why they wouldn't try to escape through the huge gaping holes in the cage for the cameras. TNA is identical to the cancer-ridden WCW of the late '90s.

[mangle]

Well, thank god it isn't as big as WWE, I'd plain stop watching wrestling if it was on as much as WWE.

[Patricia38]

*REMOVED*

[Heart Break Kid]

so why post here stop trying to get your post count up

and hopefully cena and batista will win tonight

[mangle]

Wwee is crap
Whats wwee?

And tbh i couldnt be less bothered if Cena and Batista win tonight, Batista is a better heel anyway.

[CJW93]

Another rematch?
cant wait?

[Juch]

Whats wwee?

And tbh i couldnt be less bothered if Cena and Batista win tonight, Batista is a better heel anyway.

& Cena

[CJW93]

Randy Orton was involved in a motorcycle accident resulting in him re-injuring his collarbone. Orton had initially injured his collarbone last June at One Night Stand, during his confrontation with Triple H in a Last Man Standing Match for the WWE Championship.

As a result of re-injuring the collarbone, Orton will be out of action for three months.

[Misawa]

Swerve if you ask me. He'll be back at SummerSlam.

[mangle]

Didnt see Kanes bag thingy happening. Welll, what was in it LOL#

Anyone hear the "What" chants with Adamle?

[Misawa]

Oddly enough Rey Mysterio's mask.

[mangle]

I want to know where they're taking this, they kept it well hidden I'll give them that.

[Captain]

Didnt see Kanes bag thingy happening. Welll, what was in it LOL#

Anyone hear the "What" chants with Adamle?

Yeah i heard the "What" chants, i couldnt stop giggling :$

Raw wasnt that good this week tbh, it was too predictable.. well aprt from the rey mysterio mask :l

Am I the only one who thinks Mike Adamle is impressive as a GM? :eusa_clap

[Misawa]

Obviously he has zero creative control, but I like his character.

[CJW93]

Im very impressed with Adamle. The Mysterio mask was such a let down. Also how bad was the ending to the world tag team title match?

Raw this week out of 5 I give it 2

[Captain]

Yeah the mask was such a let down, lately RAW have been hyping things up but finishing with poor endings :(

I knew they'd win the tag team titles back but the way they did it was ridiculously crap, I hoped for a better finish to that match.

As for Adamle, I hated him quite a lot and i predicted he was going to have no clue what to do as GM but I've taken a shine to him :$ (not in that way)

[Misawa]

I'm pretty sure that Kane having Mysterio's mask was just a trick since he knew that Adamle was going to seize the sack last night, thus he switched his mask with a Rey Mysterio replica. That's why he laughed.

[CJW93]

Evan Bourne is such a good high flyer, he needs a bigger push.

Mick Foley is poised to join TNA when his contract expires on September 1st.

[mangle]

Whered you read that?

Proof plese, I know he was in dispute but I didn't know he was going to quit already.

[Misawa]

I really doubt he's got his heart set on TNA, if anything, Ring Of Honour, because he loves it.

You can check out my ECW report on Gerweck.net, and my SummerSlam preview and predictions are coming soon to that website.

[Captain]

Here you go :eusa_whis

WWE legend Mick Foley will jump to rival wrestling group TNA next month, a close friend has told The Sun.

The hardcore icon has become frustrated with his role as a commentator on Smackdown and wants to leave Vince McMahon’s company when his contract expires on September 1.

And he is so determined to make an IMPACT for his new employers, that he’s even willing to get back in the ring.

Foley’s pal told us: “Mick's body cannot handle a full time schedule, even in TNA.

“But he's hell bent on doing everything he can to further his legacy and put them on the map.

"So Mick's plan is to wrestle select dates, like Sting currently does.

“He feels he will legitimately make a big difference in the way TNA Wrestling is perceived by the public!”

Mick missed last night’s Smackdown TV taping for the second week running, with Tazz once again taking his announcer spot beside Jim Ross.

Last week, Foley told a newspaper: “At this point, there is a good chance, through mutual agreement that I will not be renewing my contract.

“Creatively, the announcing job wasn't working out too well.”

The hardcore legend almost went to TNA once before, in 2005, but decided to sign a new deal with the WWE at the last moment.

[CJW93]

You beat me to it

:)

[Captain]

CAPTAIN WIN, IS HERE FOR YOU.

[Misawa]

Why the hell would he go to TNA, I think he'll re-sign, however. You go TNA if you want a blemish on your career. He loves ROH, he should go there.

[Captain]

Maybe he wants to get back at Vince and make TNA more popular to provide competition for WWE

[Misawa]

Foley to TNA won't make much difference. TNA will never get anywhere close to the WWE.

[Captain]

I know they wont, but foley has a popular fanbase.

[mangle]

Foleys friend already said he'd work selected dates like sting, he wouldnt be able to hack it anymore.

[Scouse]

he going to TNA as a wrestler or commentator?

[mangle]

Wrestler ithink.

[bo$$]

he said he'd be willing to get back into the ring but obviously nothing HUGE because his body can't handle it.

[mangle]

I still reckon he should stay with WWE, Vince should tone it down a lot though.

[Misawa]

He should. Sting works a selective schedule, and TNA has stained his career. Mick SHOULD NOT go to TNA. Stay in WWE, I'm sure him and Vince could come to a good conclusion.

[Hated]

Kane has quit wwe to join a screamo band.

[Misawa]

Put a sock in it.

[mangle]

Interestingly enough, Punk said he rarely gets recognized in his hometown of Chicago because Vince McMahon prohibits him from wearing street clothes on television. "Actually, I’m not allowed to wear my street clothes on TV because Vince McMahon says I don’t look like C.M. Punk when I’m not in my gear. And hipsters either don’t watch TV or they’re too cool to admit they watch wrestling. So no one even talks to me." Punk added, "I have tattoos and I look like everyone else when I’m not in my underwear [tights]."

It appears Vince refuses to let him wear streets.

[CJW93]

Ric Flair had been considering asking for a release from WWE for weeks. Flair didn't want to be an agent or a commentator as he expected to be working in a public relations role as well as portray an occasional TV character. But Flair became discouraged and subsequently asked for the release. One of the major paydays Flair had to turn down because of WWE was a $225,000 deal for 30 dates, which was put together by Charlotte attorney Bob Trobich (who Flair has known since the Crockett days) of the NWA. Flair would receive half of the money up front, and Flair would then do autograph sessions at NWA house shows where they would limit an autograph session to 200 fans that would pay $100 a piece. The number was to be kept small so that the fans would get a true interaction with Flair, but still allow both sides to cash in. The NWA would also use footage of these on their TV show, and have Flair cut promos occasionally, hoping that having him linked with the promotion could help them gain exposure. WWE didn't want Flair appearing on independent wrestling shows and or DVD/TV, which is why they wouldn't allow it.

There was talk of WWE expanding WWE studios to produce their own TV shows, and Flair, Mick Foley and Roddy Piper were all considered for these projects. The reason that they were considered is that WWE didn't want to take active talent off of the road for any amount of time. Flair had also talked about pursuing Hollywood offers and writing a second book. It looks as if both Flair and WWE parted on good terms and there are no details on any form of non-compete clause he might have.

Interestingly enough, Punk said he rarely gets recognized in his hometown of Chicago because Vince McMahon prohibits him from wearing street clothes on television. "Actually, I’m not allowed to wear my street clothes on TV because Vince McMahon says I don’t look like C.M. Punk when I’m not in my gear. And hipsters either don’t watch TV or they’re too cool to admit they watch wrestling. So no one even talks to me." Punk added, "I have tattoos and I look like everyone else when I’m not in my underwear [tights]."

It appears Vince refuses to let him wear streets.


Yeah its like Khali. He can actually speak english but WWE refuses to let him speak it while on show.

Edge made the ending of smackdown rubbish by over reacting. Vicky cannot even fake cry, she sounds like she's laughing. I hope to god the undertaker somehow comes back as the 'deadman' persona on sunday, would be great to see him 'normal' again. If you all want a bloody decent site for WWE, TNA, UFC - I recommend www.elite-tv.tk - they have the shows on a live feed and put them in an archives section if you're not on to view the shows live :) They are showing Summerslam on sunday!

Wow.. i read your report the other day Misawa, I agreed with around 85-90% of it. Did not know you made it, very good, and yay, another Gerweck reader on HXF :D

My Predictions
Santino and Glamarous Amazon (Santinos words, not mine!) over Coffee Kangstun and Mickie James. Santino takes the womans title, Beth takes Intercontinental and comedy ensues :rolleyes:

M. Hardy over Mark Henry.
Henry dominates the match, Tony Atlas is eating cake, it distracts Henry as he wants some, Hardy gets the roll up, uno's, dos adios! Hardy wins. I keed, obviously without the cake bit I can see Matt winning, getting a short-ish title reign as frankly, he sucks on the Mic.

Taker over Edge.
Taker wins, cant see any big spots in this match, doubt they will 'use the cell' as much as they used to. Good match nonetheless, Taker wins, story-line over (thank god!)

HHH over Khali.
2 words - Toilet. Break.

CM Punk over JBL and his Special Guest Manager, his manboobs.
Punk Wins, only just.


I only covered the matches i'm interested in. If Jeff Hardy really is injured, maybe they could further the Kane and Rey story-line, and slip Kanes mask into it somehow (Doubt it, but worth a try right?)

Also, I much prefer Galaxia Blogspot (google it) to watch my events, good quality. Although its in Portuguese its really easy to understand.

Thanks for not reading,

[CJW93]

F4Wonline.com is reporting that Jeff Hardy was said to have suffered a broken neck on Tuesday night when missing an appearance at Best Buy yesterday in Rockford. Cody Rhodes & Ted DiBiase replaced him at the signing. He also missed last night's house show but no reason was given for his absence. It's being said that on Tuesday there was no indication of Hardy suffering a serious injury in his match with Shelton Benjamin, but he came to TV with fluid in his elbow that wouldn't drain well. He was pulled from the weekend house shows but is still scheduled to face MVP at SummerSlam at this point. We will continue to update you on Hardy's condition as more details become available

[Misawa]

Whoever said that at the event is stupid, as Hardy has has trouble draining fluid from his elbow and has been taking a few days off in order to make Sunday.

Anyone else just not looking forward to it that much?

[CJW93]

I know most of the matches arnt great, and I dislike both Batista and Cena but im still a little bit exited for there match. I'm also looking forward to Mvp v Jeff Hardy, And Edge Undertaker

If Batista works it heel itll be good, Takers comeback entrance will be good aha.

I laugh if taker came back with the badass gimmick due to WWE's PG programming!!

[mangle]

LOL
Not aloud to mention the word dead on TV!
I really like the gimmick he has going on atm, pushed a bit far at times - eg him in the coffin but its alright imo.

[Captain]

I dont think its far putting him in the coffin, it adds a bit more suspense to it. I hope the entrance is good, like all these monks carrying a coffin and lightening strikeing it when they put it in the ring and he appears out of it. omgs. :]

HOLY CRAP..

First Jericho punched Michaels wife.

Then Matt Hardy got finished up in his match, Jeff has ran out and pwning Henry.

[CJW93]

This is my thoughs of Summerslam 2008. It contains Reults and Spoilers, so if you are planning on watching the ppv tomorrow or something I advise that you dont read.

The opening match was Jeff Hardy v Mvp, is was a good back and forward match with a Shelton Benjamin interfience that cost Jeff the win. Mvp won the match by hitting Hardy with the drive-by kick, Beth Peniox having Marella on her shoulder at the end was great, but Kofi Kingston stood out for me. I was really pissed at the fact that I though Matt Hardy would of won the the title over on ECW when he was drafted over from Smackdown but it was good to see a Harys Boyz reunion for a while and suplex Mark on the outside. Also pleased that Cm Punk got a a clean win and beat him 1,2,3 and no run ins this time. WWE Championship match, wasn't all bad, at leas the crowd were into it with the "You Cant Wrestle!" directed at Khali. Cena v Batista billed as the match that was six yearsin the making. At first the though of Cena v Batista didn't tickle my fancey but as they continued to buildup the macth I grew to like it, and it wasn't a bad match, with the crowd I felt in Batistas favour. The best part of the match was wenthe leg drop from the top rope but Batista counterd it into a power bomb. then it was time for Deadmans Revenge, "The Devils Playgorund" Hell In A Cell. btw is it just me or did ge look sooo wasted as he waited for 'Taker to make his entrance? ut a great macth with a few crazy spots, from Edge runbing along the steel steps and jumping on to The Undertaker and goth going through the cell wall, and from Edge running across both the Smackdown and Raw annouce tables to sprear 'Taker through the Ecw annoucetable. The ending was great I felt also Taker putting Edge through those two tables was incrediable. After the match was won, it was great that Undertaker, placing The Rated R Superstar on a ladder and then chokeslamming Edge through the Ring, and then for the ring to be set on fire, and then for Summerslam to go off the air. I almost forgot the Hbk annoucemtn whilst he was annoucing that he his hanging up the boots, it was only right for Yj2 to Break the walls down and cut a fantastic promo with Jericho punching Hbk's Milf wife

[newWORLDorder]

Was an alright show.

What an excellent ECW match

What the actual hell? :| 4 Weeks of building itup for a 1 minute piece of crap!

[Captain]

Im not bothered about the ECW match tbf, ECW is way boring. I liked the way they showed about 8 replays of Y2J owning HBK's wife lolol i couldnt stop giggling :P

[mangle]

Mediocre Raw, Kane new music much lilke the stuff he had in the attitude era.
Has the Batista - Cena thing just gone now?

[Misawa]

I can't believe the WWE ripped off ROH's Scramble match in ROH's own hometown.

Cena/Batista was just wrong. It should have been saved for WrestleMania 25 with months of build. I cant believe it had 3 weeks and a clean finish. The direction that they will most likely go is a rematch where Cena wins and a final match at 'Mania to decide it.

[mangle]

Well if they don't, I don't know what they're going to do. Batista seems to just be drifting from storyline to storyline.

Shes not bad ;)

[Misawa]

Until Jericho had his way with her face.

She'd be in her mid-thirties now I'd say. She's a former WCW Nitro Girl.

[bo$$]

That ending was lame.
Usually they end the show with something exciting that will leave you looking forward to next weeks show.
This time they just ended it with a match.. nothing exciting. :(

[Misawa]

They have no main event feud, I guess next week we will begin to development for the Ring Of Honour match.

[CJW93]

Ecw

* Chavo Guerrero, John Morrison, & The Miz b. Tommy Dreamer, Evan Bourne, & Super Crazy. Miz pinned Dreamer after a move from the top rope.

* Ricky Ortiz b. Gavin Spears via pinfall. Since I was only told Spears' ring name I am unable to identify him at this time.

* Finlay & Hornswoggle come out and Finlay challenged Mike Knox. Knox refused to get in the ring so Finlay brawled with him down the ramp. Security came out and broke them up.

* Finlay vs. Mike Knox is announced for next week's ECW.

* Mark Henry b. Matt Hardy
- Henry got the win via pinfall for the main event.


Smackdown
The Taping is still going on but so far this is the biggest thing to happen.

Vickie comes out and apologizes to the crowd for her thing with Edge to redeem herself. She then announces a WWE Title Scramble for Unforgiven. There will be two qualifying matches for it tonight.

10 Man Battle Royal
Winner earns a spot in the WWE Title Scramble at Unforgiven
- Brian Kendrick won the match which earned him a spot in the scramble. Some of the participants were: Big Show, Super Crazy, Curt Hawkins, Zack Ryder, Jimmy Wang Yang, and Vladimir Kozlov. Big Show cleaned house, but Kendrick ended up with the win.

.

i think you'll actually find WWE use to have this type of match years ago
this is proved on either smackdown or smackdown 2 i think number 2
but either way
hell in a cell match good my mate taped it :)

[Misawa]

Nope, it's an "Adamle Original" for one, WWE have never had a Scramble match. I know what you're referring to in the SmackDown! games, later than the first two, and they were just Hardcore matches using the Hardcore Championship 24/7 rule.

[Heart Break Kid]

ah that may be it
where you had a match for a set amount of time and the title changed hands

its basically the same thing....

[mangle]

SD! Scramble and Raw scramble.

You can guarentee a last second pin, I reckon Punk my lose the title but not HHH.

I wouldn't mind JBL as champion.

[newWORLDorder]

He has manboobs *smirk*


So yeah, I presume im the only 'old-school-ish' fan that wants Cena to get the strap... hm, ok then.

Cena would be a much better champ if he took a step back, maybe have close calls in matches, give him the strap for 2-3 months against a really strong heel (Jericho Cena was a EPIC fued)

Yeah. Cena or Jericho for WHC.

[Misawa]

I'd rather Cena to stay title-free on RAW for longer, not that I hate him or anything. And if he ever wins the World Heavyweight Championship, he better not "bling it up" like the sickening WWE belt.

[You]

He should do TBH. WWE belt looks a lot better now.

[newWORLDorder]

I dont think he would bling it, WWE know that was a mistake.

Bring back the Undisputed style back.

And tbh, Heel cena would be interesting, not for a long time though.

[Misawa]

He should do TBH. WWE belt looks a lot better now.

No way. The title looks horrible, it is actually disrespectful to a degree to have it that way. I thought it would remain until Cena lost the title, but obviously its permanent. The belts should not look like like they belong around the neck of Mr. T.

[Scouse]

wasnt there rumours that the whc was getting a spinner? remember at the time of the draft people thought cena was going to smackdown because the belt was getting a spinner?

[mangle]

Wasn't that the womans title?
The womens is actualy improving, aslong as Punk gets stripped I'm not that fussed. Don't particulary like him as champ.

[Misawa]

I think he'll lose it at Unforgiven.

[newWORLDorder]

Scramble match will be great. I always liked matches where the title changes alot (Hardcore Scramble - WM2000).

http://www.wwe.com/content/media/images/3883682/7891728
CM Punk will lose the title, hopefully go back to his ROH Heel style.
Cena I can see winning
Batista I can see winning
Kane is busy munching on Rey Mysterio.
JBL has Manboobs, therefore auto-dq.


If WWE wanted to make the match EXTRA interesting, Primo and Carly Colón could run out and take out Cena, reason - Taking the debut spotlight from Primo, but then that means Carly hopping from SD to Raw.

[Misawa]

The Hardcore Battle Royal at WrestleMania 2000 had that horrible botched finish to an otherwise decent match.

[newWORLDorder]

lol yeah, the finish was hideous.

[mangle]

What about SD? I reckon HHH will retain, good to see Jeff Hardy still being included in title matches. As for him winning I don't think so.

[newWORLDorder]

Well, dont rule Jeff out, no-one expected Punk to get the title yet, Jeff getting the title is imminent.


Gail Kim is returning, good for her :)

http://www.gerweck.net/news/1219342711.shtml

TNA's Knockout foundation - Gone


The 'Dudleys leaving TNA' rumor is still going strong, in a recent interview and in recent shoots, they have said they would love to return to WWE.

Takeshi Morishima should debut very soon aswell.

[Misawa]

Morishima isn't under any WWE contract, he was being tested out. He's with Pro Wrestling NOAH in Japan.

Jeff would probably be the WWE Champion right now if he hadn't have had that suspension. It could be Unforgiven, who knows, but I think if they do ever give him the title, it won't be for a while because of his second strike.

I would love to see the Dudley Boyz back in WWE, but from what I've heard, Bubba is a moron and D-Von is a good guy, so people in the company aren't too thrilled with the possibility of Bubba coming back. They were released in the first place because creative had nothing for them, and they aren't showing too much interest at the moment, but the Dudleyz are incredibly marketable and I can't see how, with the current tag teams, they can not be too interested.

As for Gail Kim, it will be good to see her return to the E, hopefully on RAW where the "real" women wrestle, SmackDown! has enough Divas at the moment.

[newWORLDorder]

Im 90% sure he will be signing though, he is a tried and tested megastar. He is the GCH Champion, WWE should of seen the amount of attention he was getting on raw (I seen his dark matches), And he is an epic athlete.

Bubba isn't a moron tbh, you should look for his shoot interview on Youtube, he earned good respect in WWE from 'standing up against the man'. He would recommend what he could do, he is pretty much a veteran. WWE Need tag tag teams, credible tag-teams. WWE are classing The Brian Kendrick and Zeek as a tag team, we have not even seen Zeek wrestle? D-Von and Bubba are just great veterans of the business.

And yeah, good for her, she was cool Gail Kim. TNA's so called amazing Divas division must not be doing that well is she wants to leave (If I remember rightly, She was the original Divas title.)

[Misawa]

TNAs' Knockouts division sucks apart from Kim, who has jumped ship of course, and Awesome Kong, who I would also like to see in the WWE.

The Dudleyz are veterans, yes, and they should be heavily respected for their tag team history, but it is the reported feelings within the WWE that I mentioned, employees think that D-Von is a nice guy, whereas Bubba rubs people the wrong way.

I would love to see Morishima in the WWE, providing they use him right. GHC Champion and the ROH champ prior to Nigel McGuinness.

[newWORLDorder]

Yeah, lately I am turning into a HUGE FCW Fan.

They are by far the best development company, a tad ahead of OVW. I watched an Evan Bourne vs Shaemus O'Shaugnassey fight this morning. The way they make the up and coming recent debuting WWE stars (Bourne, Primo Colon, Ortiz) face these soon to debut stars is great, maybe matching up some future rivalries.

[Misawa]

OVW is just another indy now, severed ties with the WWE like Deep South did. FCW is now WWE's only developmental territory.

Evan Bourne is great in the ring, and his Shooting Star puts Paul London to shame. I've seen Sheamus live a couple of times and I never thought that much of him to be honest, It'll be interesting to see how he has improved.

[newWORLDorder]

I said that to Poojie on MSN this morning, I dont rate SOS, infact, I cant stand him. Wrestlers whose nationality who get over-stereotyped rarely work. Santino has worked, people love to hate him, therefore he makes cash.

OVW was quite interesting, FCW however is great, I love how they have they're own arena, which is a hot arena I must say, brings back memories with all the posters.

But yeah, Sydals SSP makes Londons look like childs play, Dream tagteam - Kidman and Sydal/Bourne.

[Misawa]

What's funny about Santino is that he's actually Canadian.

It is unfortunate that the vast majority of wrestlers from outside of the USA have stereotypical gimmicks, some are decent, like Regal and Fit Finlay, but some are just rediculous. Paul Burchill, in what is basically his third run in the WWE, doesn't have such a gimmick at the moment, thankfully.

[newWORLDorder]

He seems trapped in the incest gimmick still, looks rly awkward.

Thinking earlier, why are WWE messing with themes. Mr Kennedy and Jeffs new ones are good... Randy Orton was better when he had CM Punks current theme, although this current one is good [fad on xbox live with ma mates, trying to slip it into conversations]. And Kanes new theme is crap, too soft.

[Misawa]

Well Orton only came out to Punk's one time, and that was against Super Crazy on an episode of SmackDown. It really did not suit his entrance, but Voices by Rev Theory is perfect I find. It fits his walk.

John Cena is reportedly having serious problems with his neck, which has caused numbness in one of his arms.

Cena had an MRI done Saturday before the Raw brand house show at Madison Square Garden. He returned to the arena and said, "Long story short, my neck is (expletive) up badly."

Cena was originally slated to work singles matches at this weekend's house shows, but they were turned into tags with Batista as his partner. Batista worked the majority of their tag matches at all three shows.

Cena has yet to indicate if he's going to be taking some time off or not.

[CJW93]

He's in the Raw main event for Unforgiven. He might get hit by a chair in the match or something like that and gets time off.

Source: PWInsider.com

There is reportedly a lot of fear within the WWE (http://www.wrestlezone.com//article.php?articleid=221778484#) when it comes to John Cena's neck injury. The belief is that the prognosis is going to be a neck fusion that would keep him out until at least the fall of 2009. This would mean he would miss WrestleMania and even SummerSlam, at least from a wrestling standpoint.

[CJW93]

After Cena's surgery today, World Wrestling Entertainment announced that the prognosis was "excellent".

Dr. Joseph Maroon, who performed the surgery, said that Cena could start working out as early as next week and should be back in the ring in the next 2-4 months. The earliest you can expect him back would be Survivor Series or at the latest, The Royal Rumble 2009.

Dr. Maroon told the WWE (http://www.wrestlezone.com//article.php?articleid=221796394#) website, “We performed a microsurgical removal of a large disk fragment compression on the spinal cord which was weakening the nerve leading to the right arm," He also said, "We created a small incision in the front of the neck using an operating microscope to remove the fragment from the spinal cord and nerve. The operation took approximately an hour and a half."

The basic feeling within WWE is that the company and Cena were both extremely lucky the injury wasn't worse, as it could have necessitated fusion surgery.

[Misawa]

Check out my report as always, if you missed last night's edition of ECW on Sci-Fi, gerweck.net (http://gerweck.net)

[CJW93]

PWInsider.com reports that Ken Kennedy is scheduled for shoulder surgery this Friday. Kennedy injured his shoulder during a house show match with Shelton Benjamin earlier this month, and has been working lightly ever since.

Kennedy was diagnosed with a torn labrum and damage to his rotator cuff by Dr. James Andrews in Birmingham, Alabama. After two weeks of rehab and no progress, it was determined he would require surgery.

He is expected to miss four to six months after the procedure, which will be performed by Dr. Andrews.

[mangle]

Well, he's agreed to sign with them and will on Sept 1st.

And may he rot in TNA like everybody else who ever had the idiocy to sign with them 2006 onwards.

[newWORLDorder]

I must say Misawa, without sounding like a brownnose, I really enjoy your recaps and reports on Gerweck, I did not actually know it was you who was doing them, I have been going to gerweck for years, when did you start? I also like the fact that you are realistic about things, when it comes to predictions and stuff you keep your feet on the ground unlike a lot of wrestling reporters, so well done.

Some new which I just got from Gerweck.net, is that TNA have 5 contracts expiring soon. As most are ex-Fed stars, ima hoping at least 1 or 2 of them will jump back.

1) Team 3D, Have had trouble with creative in the past, have expressed unhappiness, on a few occasions said they would not mind returning to the fed.

2) Awesome Kong. I think the could fit in very well in the WWE, Smackdown is needing a good Diva, and Awesome kong fits the bill, or even on Raw, Kong and Umaga, twins!

3) Kevin Nash - I cant think of what The Fed could do with him? Fit him into the Jericho Michael's story? Im sure he would not be back in time anyway, Not a huge fan, the only way i could see him returning is if he keeps in touch with his bigwig friends (Hunter, Shawn)

4) Christian - GRAH! Poojie knows how much I think CC is epic. I would love to see him leave and jump back. There is the perfect oppurtunity to reunite/fued with edge atm, he could get straight into the main event scene. He did not leave The Fed with hard feelings, so thats a bonus. His close friend, Scott D'Amore recently left TNA, And its been public that CC has had some troubles with the creative team.

I can guarantee I am reading into signs too much, but I can always imagine Cage could come back in a main event push, right? :D

BTW, I focus on the above going to the WWE as thats my favorite fed, tbh, most will probs re-sign with TNA or go into indies/foreign place. Idk.

Randy Orton has expressed his dislike for Bubba

Well if Bubba comes back, Randy will have to live with it.

Thanks a lot Felony, I appreciate it. I'm quite new actually. I don't think I'm regularly doing the RAW reports, I was filling in for someone on Monday, but who knows. Steve Gerweck is sending me something through the mail from USA for doing it? How kind.

I write the ECW reports and PPV previews, as well as post general news. :)

I would like to see the Dudleyz return to the WWE. They were released because Creative had nothing for them, but I can't se why. They need to return and freshen up one of the tag divisons.

I'd like to see Christian come back too. He left a midcarder, and WWE likes to ignore TNA's existence, so I can't imagine him fitting into the mould of a main eventer there. I wouldn't like him to reunite with Edge because I believe him to be a firm stayer in the main event picture. A feud between them could work, however.

Awesome Kong would fit right in to the WWE's women's division on RAW, but definitely not SmackDown's Divas.

As for Kevin Nash, he really doesn't need another run in the WWE. His 2002-2003 stint should be his last. His role in TNA is pretty much pointless and he's way past it.

Thanks again, and I support your focus on the WWE. I loved TNA from 2002-2006, but then Vince Russo came in and I firmly believe that it has died; him being the killer. TNA vowed to be wrestling free of the Hollywood antics of the WWE, but they have become more rediculous in the past 2 years than WWE has in TNA's six year history.

Vince Russo has buggered up TNA. Biggest mistake they made.

yeah, Nash is way past his time, his legs are buggered if I remember rightly?

Kong would fit into the Santino Marrella storyline, I know she would but I dont know how, I could see him cheating on beth with her, and it would be rather amusing.

I am just a huge Cage fan, his storyline with edge has got to be one of the best ever, then he took on that temper tantrum thing in 2002. Legend, I loved his entrance music to :D

Nash was a great wrestler back in the 2003 WWE era. I've never liked Christian that much, but the Dudleyz would be a good tag team to bring back to the WWE. They'd probz be contracted to the ECW brand though.

[Misawa]

The operaticness of that theme is just weird. I liked the theme he used in 2003/2004 before the Waterproof Blonde song.

Christian's best theme

-- There were a ton of empty seats at last Saturday's TNA event in Topeka, Kansas as the house show only drew 500 fans to the Kansas Expocentre, which can hold 8,000 seats. Additionally, house shows the week before in Dallas, Texas (8/15) and Muskogee, Oklahoma (8/17) drew poorly as well. However, the 8/16 house show in Lawton, Oklahoma reportedly drew drew okay.

Off Pwmania, seems to speak volumes imo

Killer Kowalski has died. Expected, but very sad. I am a huge fan of his storied career. R.I.P. Killer.

R.I.P :(

[newWORLDorder]

I dont think that many people realize how much of an impact Mr Kowalski had on Pro Wrestling. If it was not for him (and the fact he is married to the CEO's daughter), Triple H may not have been a mega-star. Same for many other stars.


RIP. You will be truly missed.

[Wayne]

R.I.P Killer Kowalski.

If you are to believe rumours, HBK has apprently suffered a tricep tear at a taping of Raw this week.

[Wayne]

Was HBK in a match when he tore his tricep?

[Heart Break Kid]

i bet there not even true rumours
bet he just made it up to prove that people do fall for anything

[mangle]

He was in a contract signing and after that he layed into Jericho, perhaps then?

[Misawa]

It appears HBK has a triceps tear, I imagine from when he Superkicks Lance Cade.

[Heart Break Kid]

can i ask has Muhammed Hassan gone to TNA
just at hard justice during the stiener match i saw this person who looked exactly like him?

[Misawa]

Muhammed Hassan left wrestling for acting. Daivari is now in TNA as Sheik Abdul Bashir with a terrorist gimmick :rolleyes:. I presume who you thought was Scott Steiner at Hard Justice was actually Petey Williams in his Steiner-esque gimmick in the apprentice storyline, as Daivari attacked Consequences Creed at the conclusion of that match.

[Heart Break Kid]

ah!!! tbh i thawt it looked like diavari!
and i also wish muhammed hassan the best of luck in the acting role
i feel sorry for the story line they gave him in WWE

[Misawa]

The thing is, the storyline wasn't that bad. They didn't go overboard, it was merely hinted. The problem with it was the media's reaction. Both Hassan and Daivari left on good terms with the WWE.

[Heart Break Kid]

:D
well that is true :D
and you never know he might come back one day :D

(oh and i forgot to say in the other thread
The Rock
and
Stone Cold Steve Austin)

[Misawa]

Both legends, simply because of their storied careers and the fact that they aren't active anymore.

[Heart Break Kid]

they sure are :D:D:D

[mangle]

There are plans to retire Stone Cold like Ric Flair apprently, Austin said he won't sign if he doesn't like the plans and solong as he doesn't have to wrestle another match.

[Misawa]

HBK is confirmed to be injured and apparently it usually takes six months to get back into the ring from a triceps tear. Thankfully, he has the intention of working his unsanctioned match against Jericho at Unforgiven, which works out well, because there can be some spot that nigh-on kills Michaels and puts him out for 6 months, with a big comeback in half a year's time and a conclusion of the feud, perhaps WrestleMania 25, as he would return just in time if it was 6 months.

[newWORLDorder]

Was just about to post some stuff, then realized it was Misawa from Gerweck lol.

Its a shame about HBK Really. He should just stay out for a few months, get himself sorted, come back into a big last push.

WWE has come to terms on the release of Mick Foley as of today (September 1st), we wish him the best of luck in all future endeavors, see you in a few years when TNA doesn't go to plan Jolly St. Mick!

pssh. I would LOL if Mr Socko is trademark WWE

[Wayne]

That storyline sounds awesome Misawa.

[Misawa]

Thanks. Another storyline that has been on my mind is a continuation of Edge vs. The Undertaker. Once Edge returns, since The Undertaker has recently been "playing with fire" so to speak, they have an Inferno match. I think that would really bring to life the "hell" that has recently been spoken of.

Was that your own writing Felony in the part about WWE releasing Foley? I couldn't find it on WWE.com.
