Hell I dont trust it either but you might as well watch while it is good. Yeah they will probably screw it up but its a great diversion from the WWE at least for the time being. Besides Austin Aries, Joe Park, and Bully Ray are some of the best in the business right now and you know now that the show is Live Kurt Angle could snap and try a suicidal move at a moments notice. Speaking of Kurt WWE should bring him back when his conract is up. Possibly the most underrated performer of all time. Mic Skills, Wrestling Ability, Great Humor and was a good serious character when be needed to be.
Im happy DDP is no longer wrestling even if he was one of my faves

Sting won more heavyweight championships with the Scorpion Death Lock than Bret Hart ever did with the Sharpshooter!
Also, Raw was shit. At least I've given up again so its stopped being disappointing and just 'Yea, I know'.

I, for one, am tired of the WWE serving their fans gristle when the fans deserve filet mignon. If I have to eat a moderately priced and tasting steak in the form of Impact, then so be it.

Downward Spiral. He basically gave himself a Rock Bottom.

I haven't seen anything on the website about it at all. I tried to check yesterday to see when it was going to air but nothing was posted. They said it would be this week on last week's NXT.
They don't even have links to the NXT page on the website.
It doesn't look like they're even going to put the new season of NXT on WWE.com for those in the U.S.
We'll just have to wait until it's uploaded on Youtube tomorrow by someone in Australia, the UK, etc. since NXT is still airing on TV in those countries.

Dixie Carter on Twitter says she will reveal all about AJ Styles even though people will be hurt because of it. AJ-Dixie reveal, All 12 BFG guys in action, and Aries possibly wrestling two matches at Destination X. Sounds like tommorow should be a pretty good show. I am now officially worried.

Don't tell me Dixie got involved with Cena as well
I understand. BTW, I think it's funny that we've just accepted him as Joe Park. I'll try to tune in tomorrow, if I'm not busy.

The AJ/Dixie stuff, more on the 3 masked men who attacked Sting, the gutcheck challenge, all 12 bfg series contestants must issue challenges to each other, the tv title has to be defended, plus Aries makes his decision. This is going to be a packed show. Can't wait.

Would let Tony Parker sleep with his wife
he used the impaler ddt for a while after gangrel left...then that fucked up looking sharpshooter
I just watched the HBK vs. Taker HIAC match from Bad Blood 1997 on Netflix for the first time in ages.
My God, what a fucking great match.
It's amazing to see the difference between how they actually utilized the Cell to add to the match whereas most HIAC matches nowadays might as well just take place in a normal ring.
No other HIAC match comes close to this one for me.

Posting pics of a family man is not wrestling.
Yes, the Impaler DDT, that's what I was thinking of!
Not every wrestler has to be some jackass that constantly cheats on his wife. From what I've heard, Christian is a family man too. Would you have a problem if I posted a pic of him? Huh?
Christian owns slaves.
Damn it, Ply! That's not what you were supposed to say. You were supposed to say, "Sure. Post a picture of Christian"
Then, I would post this picture:
And we would have a hearty good laugh! You ruined the joke!
Oh yeah, right. Fine. . . . . . . . . uhhhhh, aw fuck it.
AHAHAHA! See? Even though I said I would post a picture of Christian, I still managed to include Kane. Isn't that funny?
Aw, fuck it, you ruined it!

Damn, Billy Gunn's still in good shape.
This thread is on repeat.
I'd rather they just put them all up on Netflix/Amazon Instant. It's sorta ridiculous that they haven't done this, but we have to wait for their network to bomb first.

The healing process for Wrassle-GAF is slow and arduous, and sometimes the threads enter remission.
For the whole year's worth of episodes? Sure. For the 'best of' collections like what they do now? Nah.

Fuck a Blu-ray box set and just get Sunflower to get his Attitude era stream back up.

Meh. You only go back for the classic moments or your personal favorite moments. I'm not interested in owning boxsets of Raw episodes, really, cause there's a lot of crap to get through. Like DMczaf said, I'd rather just have everything available to stream so I can jump around easily.

This is the more sensible answer, but I kind of prefer having hard copies of any show I like.
Then again, with dvd/blu-ray copies comes music videos. Thousands upon thousands of music videos. I'm not sure if that's worth any price.
But one the other hand, WWE fans would finally be able to add Braden Walker matches to their home video collection. I don't know how anyone could turn that down. It's a tough choice.

I collect movies and certain shows, so trust me, I get the physical copy thing. But wrestling, Raw in particular, is different to me. Movies and normal TV shows can be classic and have classic episodes, respectively, but Raw has moments. You can probably count on 2 hands the number of Raw episodes where the entire thing was amazing. It's just the nature of The Business.

fuckin' called it, man
Soulplaya do you seek out random threads in the OT that mention wrestling to post Kane in?
SousedLouse

This is also true. I actually can't think of an entire episode that was jam-packed with excitement. I suppose that the big appeal of having the full episodes would be to get the weird, one-off gimmicks in decent quality, but that could be handled just as well by the 'best of' dvds or special box sets.
You know what? I rescind my earlier statement. Streaming is the way to go, and the smart thing for WWE to do would be to put it on one of the more popular streaming services, or at least not pull down every channel that streams or posts the older stuff.

We need a version of "Byte This!" for WrassleGAF.
No, lol. I genuinely love the Simpsons, and I couldn't believe there was a wrestling vs. simpsons war going on.
Although, maybe I should start doing that? Going into random threads, and innocently try to lead the discussion somehow into wrestling, then just randomly mention Kane, "Remember that masked guy, Kane? I wonder what he's up to?" Then, before they know it, bam! It's Kane (and AJ too, I guess) galore.
Those suckers will never see it coming.
I would buy the fuck out of 1997-2001.
Too bad it would be censored all over the place. It's one thing to simply watch highlights of the attitude era, it's a whole other thing to watch the full RAWs building up to certain moments.
Then again, I'd still take it over shitty VHS quality stuff available on youtube.
I watched every Raw from January 1997 to May 2000 in the last year and a half, and experiencing the build to the screwjob and the rise of Steve Austin week by week has been entertaining as fuck.
