I watched Smackdown for the first time in a while, only to remember why I stopped. There is more "Raw exclusive" clips than any SD content. 60% of the 2 hours is Raw stuff over and over again.

 

I'm wondering why people hate Brock Lesnar for only appearing when he feels like it, when the Undertaker can show up to 1 event a year and still be loved.

Agree with you about Smackdown .

Disagree about Brock, he`s the champion so should appear/wrestle more.

 

Undertaker`s a pwopa legend

'Taker is by far and away the most loyal wrestler still around today. Sting was a possibility, but ECW's death kind of killed it for him. The streak and all of the memories that have been created at WM for people, by the Undertaker means everyone has a connection with him. Lesnar sold out and stunk up WM XX with Goldberg and is only here for a paycheck. Taker's on his last legs and still trying to please.

 

God I love that man!

I was there when the streak was broken.

 

Don't like to mention it though.

 

Looking like this is the card. Predictions in bold.

 

Brock Lesnar v Roman Reigns

Sting v Triple H

Wyatt v Undertaker

Cena v Rusev

Orton v Rollins

Ambrose v Ziggler v Barrett v Truth v Bryan v Harper v Stardust

Battle Royal - Sheamus

Cesaro Kidd v Los Matadores v Usos v New Day (v Ascension), tag team turmoil??

AJ & Paige v Bellas

 

Only 2x matches I'm really looking forward to are IC title match & Sting v Triple H. They are hinting a summer run of Ziggler & Bryan which I like too. WTF happened to Goldust/Stardust feud?

Goldust is leaving, the 'feud' was just a way of splitting up the tag team. Putting him in the Intercontinental match is just to finish off his move back to single competition.

 

Was reading an interview with Goldberg, he thinks the Sting v HHH is nothing more than WWE trying to finish off WCW for good. Think you may be right though, Sting winning will sell more DVD's and get more signed up to the network for the back catalogue than HHH winning.

Aye, kint he was leaving. Should have at least had a good payoff though, singles match at Wrestlemania would be fitting.

 

Goldberg is a bit of a wank I think. If they wanted to finish WCW off then they wouldnt have every PPV on the network, sell t-shirts and have Booker T as commentator etc*? Agree, Sting winning leaves the door open to have a couple of other feuds as well. He looked good on Raw on Monday, some of his TNA stuff is decent too. Triple H win pretty much retires Sting IMO.

 

*For what its worth, Booker T is the worst commentator ever, followed by JBL.

 

Been watching NXT?

Started to after reading you and others raving about it on here, not totally into it yet but its more wrestling than entertainment which is definitely a good thing. Was watching the HHH podcast last night, he sees it as a training ground allowing them to build their characters and learn how to do the promo stuff without it being totally scripted which shows.

Some of the Raw stuff is OK but it has lost its humour and is all very obvious these days, NXT doesnt seem to have that flaw from what I've seen so far.

Aye, Jim Duggan can fuck off too.

Watch the Takeover - Rival event. Its ace.

 

The future will be good with Triple H in charge.
