Impact is consistently good. I just find it hard to really care.

Would let Tony Parker sleep with his wife
SCUM started a few months ago..now it's just been blown up with random dudes.
Is the opinion of it pretty favorable at this point by smarks? I dig it based on this short TV episode I'm watching.
HOLY SHIT. American Wolves tag match to start the show was phenomenal. So much original offense, high octane action, and a DEVASTATING finisher. You'll never see a match like that to open up Raw.

smarks don't like anything involving Matt Hardy...Steen is the guy the smarks like and it looks like he might be separated from SCUM.
If it's a good story, I'll bite. Does the group have a clear motivation for their actions?

Yay I just got my Best of WCW Monday Nitro Vol. 2 Blu-ray!

Anti-front office crew.
It started with Steen vs. Jim Cornette and evolved after that. I guess now it's just a bunch of guys that are tired of being held back.
the peak was Steen ripping a giant Cornette face from the crowd then spat on it.

From the 3 or so appearances shes had on NXT she has a serious goofy gimick where she isn't a Santino type of comedy more like shes just weird
Isn't her gimmick essentially being goofy as hell?
Makes for fun gifs though.
I would be ok with this on my tv.

Mexican Lucha Libre news:
Atlantis and Ultimo Guerrero have signed a contract for a "mask vs mask" match this year. CMLL has yet to set a date for the match, but it will probably be in september, on CMLL's 80th anniversary show.

Yeah, so, Naito needs to come back real soon or something because the Tanahashi/Okada formula has gotten stale. How many times can I see Okada do an elbow drop and a dropkick and Tanahashi do that little neckbreaker and a dragon suplex?
It was fine the first time, but it's getting real generic.
I wish WWE could let their heels be this awesome. Course, I can't imagine anyone is able to tell MiSu 'no'
Minoru Suzuki vs Mecha Mummy II

Oh man, match where Ultimo Guerrero doesn't go through the motions, that is big news!

That's why I don't think Okada's winning the NJ Cup - I can't see them doing Okada/Tanahashi again so soon. And I wouldn't say it's getting stale, it's just that they've had 3 matches in the space of a year. Give it time and I'll be hyped for that match again.
Goto will win (for the 4th time), but this time they really need to pull the trigger on him and let him go over Tanahashi, otherwise the whole exercise is pointless.

Matt seems to go up and down with his weight - he looked OK when he first showed up in ROH at the end of last year, but seems to have piled the pounds back on in recent months.
Alucard said:
It's all about them wanting to destroy ROH and rebuild it in their image - the group started as Steen, Jacobs & Corino, but they brought in Rhino, Rhett Titus, Matt Hardy, Jimmy Rave & Cliff Compton at the last iPPV, with the idea that these were all guys not given a fair chance by ROH over the years. Steen seems at odds with the group now, as if he's starting to think things have gone too far, so I'd imagine the big pay-off for this is Steen turning face and helping ROH get rid of SCUM.
I'll be the pessimistic one. We get Faction Wars part 2. No one wins
He looked like Zandig Jr.

On the bright side, there's no way another Faction Warfare could be as goofy as Gabe's Faction Warfare (oh god, why did Jigsaw take his mask off? WHY?). TRANSFORM!
If only he were half as talented as The UltraViolent Icon.
I think that was around the time I checked out, too. I checked out for good when Cabana went to WWE for a week. Things just weren't the same with out Colt. Faction Wars was like Gang Warz for midgets.

Yeah, it was pretty damn bad - Gabe obviously had such a hard-on for Dragon Gate, but it didn't really come close in comparison (although there were a bunch of other factors that helped ruin the storyline, like Aries leaving). You can see why the owners didn't want him booking when the got the HDNet deal, coming off the back of such an awful storyline. Shame, really...I would've liked to see what Gabe could've done with a TV show.

NXT taping was seriously good last night! All the spoilers have already been posted, but there were no pure "jobber matches" like there have been in the past, and well worth the money.
One thing that wasn't mentioned was this dude int he crowd had an Emma sign that was a huge cutout of her, and he had strings attached to it so he could move the arms on a pulley system and make the sign do her dance. It was cracking me up all night! I hope it gets on the show, because it was genius!
