[quote name='Zenithian Legend']On a side note, anyone remember when they did their initial vignettes and they were being booked as a... hmm the name of the movie suddenly escapes me, this is an obvious one here and my mind just went blank, odd. Someone help... Deliverance! That's it, I think?[/QUOTE]

Ah, it was Deliverance I was thinking of. Remember the promo Cade and Murdoch did, sitting in a bar drinking, talking about making people "Squeal like piggies" the whole gay rape thing was implied I thought.

I remember asking my friend what Vince's obsession with ambigously gay tag teams (Billy & Chuck were at their peak at the time) was.
 
I wonder if we're gonna get a HHH heel turn tonight so Cena can face "impossible odds" in a triple threat at WM.

Probably not, I thought HHH was staying face at he mo.

EDIT - Meh, pedigreeing Cena isn't a heel turn I guess.
 
I'm thinking the H's is walking out of WM as champion. He's got to have that last good run I think, plus his wife does the booking!

Yessir, yessir, looks like one last go for Taker and HHH. Kinda be interesting to see what is done with Cena following WM, with HHH as the top face, Jeff Hardy getting cheered far more than Cena, and a disturbing lack of top heels on Raw.

That ending was horrible. I tuned in to see how Cena would make it in the main event, and that was just lame and again shows why WWE can't get their shit together. Why in the hell wouldn't HHH make sure that Orton won? It makes his job a lot easier if it is only him and Orton in the main event.
 
[quote name='Zen Davis']I'm calling it right now. Orton retains. Taker/Edge goes on last and Taker wins sending everyone home happy.[/QUOTE]

Shit, just Orton retaining would send me home happy.

Dream world fantasy: HHH wins and immediately Jeff Hardy comes out, cashes his MitB and beats HHH for the title.

It feels like the WWE is genuinely trying to surprise people and just like yesterday when Orton retained, I think they're going to surprise people by having him retain at Mania.

Having Orton as champion has been working out for the company and it's kept everything feeling fresh for the past few months now. Unless they got some badass storyline set up for Cena/Triple H, I expect the chase to go on until Summerslam.
 
[quote name='mykevermin']Snitsky *is* de-pushed, as he played the same role Val Venis did tonight. If that's not a de-push I don't know what is.[/QUOTE]

The ultimate de-push for Snitsky is getting him off our TVs entirely.
 
Aside from the opener between Jeff and Snitsky, this was a good little show. Santino bugging out was hilarious, Finlay begging and pleading with Vince and JBL to spare Hornswoggle was perfect - Finlay's been fantastic in his role as the protector of Hornswoggle, and I can't wait to see a Finlay/Hornswoggle vs. JBL/Vince (or Finlay/Jericho) match at 'Mania.

The Mayweather-Show segment was more excellence from those two. Mayweather came off great as a a pompous ass who views himself as above Show, while Show's playing his part as a the monster defending wrestling very well. They did a great job tonight of making me want to see 'Mania - I just hope they can keep that momentum going for the succeeding six weeks.

The main event was...a match. Nothing particularly great about it aside from J.R. bringing up the psychology behind HHH benefiting from only having to beat Orton at 'Mania, and mentioning the flat of the foot being legal, which was right out of his Mid-South commentary.

Quotes -
HHH - At WrestleMania, the King of…(Orton’s theme hits)
J.R. - Last night, Randy Orton got himself disqualified by SLAPPING THE REFEREE RIGHT IN THE FACE!
Orton - We’ve come around full circle, haven’t we, HHH? Last night it was John Cena, before him, Jeff Hardy, Chris Jericho, Shawn Michaels. Before all of them, it started with you, HHH, the man that I beat for the WWE Title. We’ve known each other for a long time, and in that time, a lot of things have changed, but your jealousy for me has always stayed the same. 4 years ago, when I became world heavyweight champion, you were jealous of me then, and you’re more jealous of me now because I’m that much better. It makes me happy to hear you already proclaiming your victory at WrestleMania, because it makes you like all the rest - and I’ve beaten all of the rest. So if you wanna have your moment…(Cena’s theme hits)
Cena - Wait one second, wait ONE COTTON PICKING MINUTE! I just wanna (fans boo), ladies and gentlemen, I present to you, Randy Orton - WWE Champion. The first WWE champion to be both a liar and a loser. With all the corruption in sports, it’s only fitting that disgrace finally comes to the WWE Champion. He’s WWE Champion with an asterik, the only champion to lose his way into Wrestle Mania (Cena sucks chant breaks out). I have an idea - how about tonight, we have a rematch? YES, YES, YES, LET’S NOT TAKE THE WWE CHAMPIONSHIP! WWE Champion, Randy Orton, aka Captain No Nuts, VERSUS JOHN CENA, TONIGHT! The winner will face you, HHH, at WrestleMania.
Orton - You gonna let him interrupt what we’ve got going for WrestleMania? It’s got nothing to do with John Cena?
HHH - I don’t give a crap which one of you’re champion - at WrestleMania, I’ve got the shot, and I’m gonna beat whoever it is!
Regal - Gentlemen, I’m going to try and remedy this situation in as fair a manner as possible. HHH, you won the chamber, so you’re going to WrestleMania, that’s a lock. Randy Orton, you got yourself intentionally disqualified, that doesn’t reflect well on the Raw brand or me, so tonight, you will face John Cena, where the winner goes onto a triple threat match at WrestleMania, if it’s Cena.
HHH - That doesn’t work for me, Regal, I won my chance at a one-on-one match at WrestleMania.
Regal - I know that doesn’t quite work out in your favor, which is why, tonight, in the main event match, we will have a special guest referee, and it will be the Game Triple Haitch.
J.R. - Every money in the bank has gone onto become champion!
Lawler - Yes, every winner has gone onto win the WWE Title.
HBK - WrestleMania is right around the corner, and you can’t have WrestleMania without the hall of fame induction ceremony. It is my honor to induct this man (fans wooo), he’s the greatest wrestler of all time (fans wooo), and he’s my friend (fans wooo).
J.R. - The Naitch deserves his own wing.
HBK - Nobody deserves this more than that man, I hope you will join me in congratulating the Nature Boy, Ric Flair. Join me in a WOOOO!
Lawler - Ric Flair, the only active wrestler to ever be inducted into the hall of fame.
Birchill - Ever since we’ve been growing up, I’ve noticed the looks the guys have given my sister, Katie, and don’t think I haven’t noticed the looks she’s gotten here.
Katie - But that’s okay, I attribute it to our family genes.
King - Okay, I’ve looked at her jeans a time or two.
J.R. - King, do you ever recall a brother-sister tandem?
King - Well, there’s Shane and Stephanie McMahon - they’re quite a tandem here in WWE.
HHH - Randy, you’re trying to play mind games with me - who taught you those, huh? Me! You’re not pulling anything over on me - I’ll call it like I see it.
Show - I was asked to come out here tonight and apologize for my actions at last night’s No Way Out Pay-Per-View. I knew what I was doing, but I might’ve been a little overwhelmed with my return. I might’ve went a little too far, I think that Mayweather went a little too far. I’m here to make a formal apology, I know Mayweather’s in the building, and I’d like to ask him to please come down to the ring.
Mayweather - ANAHEIM, WHAT’S UP!? (fans boo) First off, I want to start off by saying I love this business. I love it. I’ve been a fan of the WWE for many years. (fans chant ‘YOU SUCK”) I’m sorry things didn’t work out last night, but I’m the best fighter in the world, when someone calls me out, I have to retaliate.
Show - First of all, I wasn’t calling you out, I was trying to get a little publicity - I was trying to show the size difference between you and I, I was trying to have a moment. It’s okay, it’s in the past. I want to tell you, man-to-man, face-to-face, I am sorry. (fans boo, they shake hands, fans boo more)
Show - Hold on a minute, Floyd. Hold on a minute right there. I did what I was supposed to do, but now I want to get a little something off my chest! You must understand the only way you could hurt me was on my knees. Even on my knees, I’m still bigger than you! We both know, if I wanted to, I could take you out in two minutes. I let you leave the ring, just like now, when I let you leave MY RING! You don’t believe me? Why don’t you find out the truth, Mayweather!? Take me on one-on-one - the greatest fighter in the world against the LARGEST ATHLETE IN THE WORLD! Why don’t you try to make it 40 and 0? You want publicity, come take on the Big Show! Think about it!
May weather - I ACCEPT! (Mayweather feigns a punch, Show flinches, Mayweather looks on in a condescending manner)
J.R. - Mr. McMahon’s son, the illegitimate Hornswoggle…
Finlay - THIS IS WRONG!
(handcuffed, and watching Vince take off his belt)Finlay - NOOO! WHAT ARE YOU DOING THIS FOR! TAKE IT OUT ON ME, NOT HORNSWOGGLE! COME ON! COME ON! REACH FOR ME, COME ON. (Hornswoggle reaches, JBL kicks him in the head) HORNSWOGGLE! (JBL kicks him in the head)
(JBL lifts Hornswoggle for a fall away slam on the cage)Finlay - DON’T DO IT, PLEASE! HORNSWOGGLE! YOU WILL PAY FOR THIS! YOU WILL PAY FOR THIS!
Vince - Get some help, come help. Sorry, son.
Finlay - SORRY!? YOU’RE SORRY!? WHAT ARE YOU DOING!? YOU’RE A LIAR!
King - Here, you can see Finlay carrying Hornswoggle to the back.
J.R. - That’s one of the most disturbing things I’ve seen on Raw.
Santino - I, SANTINO MARELLA, have-a some verry good news. Actually, I have some great news. I know what you want, you’re gonna get it! MY-A MARIA IS GONNA POSE FOR PLAYBOY MAGAZINE! NOT ONLY THAT, YOU’RE GONNA HAVE AN OPPUPRUNITY TO SEE-A MY MARIA IN ACTION! AGAINST BETH PHENOM! DON’T WORRY, Maria, I’ll be in your corner. Whoa, whoa, whoa, I can’t believe what I’m seeing. There’s very, very, very small print. It says you can only pose for Playboy, if you beat Beth Phoenix tonight. This is the first time I am aware of this! OH MY!
Santino - THIS IS SOME KIND OF CONSPIRACY!
King - What? He’s saying it’s a conspiracy.
J.R. - I think his statement lacks a little genuality.
(Orton does a dropkick) J.R. - That’s a move of beauty.
J.R. - John Cena just got knocked into out announce table, HE’S LEGITIMATELY OUT OF IT!
J.R. - It’s easier to deal with one man than two in the WrestleMania main event.
J.R. - Orton with the flat of the foot - perfectly legal.
J.R. - John Cena has tremendous recuperative powers…BUT THAT TURNBUCKLE DOESN’T CARE!

Screens -














As for why HHH would want Cena involved - simple, he wants to get revenge on Cena for being beaten by him at WM 22, and now he'll have his chance to do so. Furthermore, it's completely because HHH allowed him to win, since he could've just as easily pedigreed Cena and put Orton on top of him to cause him to lose.
 
Excellent - so far, it seems like tonight's screens are full of win. Beyond that "YOU GONNA GET RAPED" one, I've seen the Vince screen used for "Vince peeps while you masturbate", and a Santino one was already turned into an avatar.

More screens -

EDIT: Did Mayweather say "plubicity"?[/QUOTE]

ROFL. I wasn't the only one that noticed it too then. HAHAHA.. I think Show said "plubicity" later in the promo too.
 
Ring of Honor has been advertising on TV in the NYC area during Raw for their Deer Park show. They must be looking to pull out all the stops if they're actually buying TV time.
 
Tonight was the "you still have a job?!?" edition of Raw. We got a Super Crazy match, a Val Venis match, and a Hacksaw match on Heat. For those wondering, the Heat matches were Holly/Haas, Rhodes/Carlito, Hacksaw/Highlander, Kendrick/Cade, and Mickie/Melina.

Whether or not it showed on camera, the Anaheim crowd was about 70/30 against Cena. I've got a pretty good fan cam of the crowd booing the fuck out of the cage match with a "this is boring" chant.
 
The cage match was pretty crappy, and went on far too long. Finlay did an excellent job staying hyped up in character the whole time though. Where was Jericho tonight?
 
does anyone even like mayweather.. he was introduced at the ppv like he was such a great guy and along rey...

fuck mayweather.. that family has always consisted of cocky dickheads. RAW did a great job of making mayweather into the heel and show face
 
I met Molly Holly over the weekend and she was without a doubt the nicest, most down to earth, coolest person i've ever met. I talked to her for a little bit about her past missionary work and her current work with kids addicted to drugs and alcohol and she seemed very happy with everything going on in her life. She commented that its really nice waking up and being able to move he neck to the right and left without it hurting. It also looked like she lost a lot of weight but she still looked amazing.

did she suck you off at the end of the conversation?
 
Random question that I figure you guys might know:

I finally got around to renting Smackdown 08, and am putting in the real themes for the ECW guys. My question is, I'm using Fanfare for the Common Man as Terry Funk's theme, but I'm not sure where to cue it in at. As in, what part of the song would he walk out to? I ask only because the intro to the song is extremely long, and the entrance is... not.

So, when in ECW, what part of the song did he use?

Thanks.

Heh. I take it you're not playing the babyface role?

What's the story w/ Demolition "Blast"? I'm pretty sure he's been on the indy circuit for a *long* time now, but for fuck's sake, he's still a fat-ass ripoff of Demolition. what gives?

You lucky dog. I'd give anything to have a chat with her.
 
I just finished watching the third IGF show and it was memorable, not particularly great, but memorable because of the Stan Hansen cameo, and seeing a Vince McMahon birthday video alongside Jesse Ventura, Tiger Mask, and Jeff Jarrett. Booker T vs. Tajiri was pretty decent, and seeing Tomko work an MMA gimmick was interesting.
 
[quote name='mykevermin']Heh. I take it you're not playing the babyface role?[/quote]Hahaha nope. I'm a heel who just got his comeuppance.

So he wouldn't be a "ripoff" of Demolition, per se. He comes out to an instrumental version of the Demolition theme, since I guess hearing the original lyrics would be awkward ("here comes the Ax... here comes the Smasher... here comes.... well????").

That interview was pretty good Busta, my only complaint is that the feed didn't get along with my internet connection too well and it wound up taking like 4 minutes to watch the whole thing.

I'm guessing your character is nor normally like that, right? Just in shock over the loss of his hair?
 
so i may be the only person watching ecw. it looks like the guy who wanted cm punk v. flair at mania may get his wish (zen i think it was you). if they set it up like im thinking they might.

That, or Punk just really wants to have a match with Flair. I remember in an interview that he said his dream matches were with Benoit and Flair. He's smiling ear to ear walking to the entrance ramp along with Flair currently.

yeah i dont think it took alot of 'effort' to make him smile when they were exchanging "WOO" yelling backstage
 
Flair was on tonight! Wooo!

Yeah I was wishing for Punk/Flair.

And Punk almost killed himself botching that powerbomb spot.

Seriously, it seems like all the last couple of Punk matches I've seen have featured him falling out of the ring.

Zen, did you see the CM Punk sign with the big ROH logo on it? I figured you'd find that funny.
 
I actually was sitting at the computer eating and chatting with someone when I looked at the clock and saw that it was 10:57 and I realized I was missing something. My brian ticked together the piece and I ran off to the TV to wach the closing minutes of ECW.

In other words, I missed the sign.

Also whoever is going to see RoH in Orlando. I am officially jealous.
