I'm hoping thatfunkystudent said:
Hunico gets a mask back and we have Rey/Cara Vs Hunico/Epico at Mania. They wanted to break the record for most masks in a single place. What better way to do it?

His NXT match was the biggest pop/best match when we got Smackdown here recently. Granted it's

Cena doesn't need Rock to beat Miz/Truth anyway...why then this angle
Razorskin said:
He should. My brother mentioned last week that it should be similar to the Flair/Sting angle from Halloween Havoc 95 and I totally agree.
For those that don't remember it:
Angle that setup Sting agreeing to be Flair's partner against the Horsemen (Arn & Pillman)
The night of the event, I believe they cut backstage and made it seem like the cameras arrived late after Arn & Pillman attacked Flair. Flair was supposedly ruled out for the match and Sting was forced to wrestle Arn & Pillman in a handicap match. Later in the match Flair showed up and...
The Payoff
Would be awesome. Rock would be a full fledged heel to the "Fruit Loop Troop" and the ones that already don't like Cena (which will include a very vocal amount of fans at MSG) will only love Rock that much more.

Judging from the replies, I'm gonna avoid SD spoilers again this week...WWE delivering quality entertainment yet again.

I wouldn't make fun of the Twitter thing so much. That is a good barometer for whether people are talking about it rather than just passively watching. That's what gets people to come back every week.
Seems like WWE has been reading my fantasy booking with Bryan!
My idea was to have Henry completely destroy him on TV around the Survivor Series in a throw away match.
Then you have him improving his submission/ground wrestling on various opps until the Rumble where he goes far, but ultimately ends up losing.
Then he's in the Smackdown EC, and comes close to beating Henry, but gets beat as the final man.
Then you build WM as Henry vs Bryan, can he finally topple the mighty giant where other big men have fallen.
At the same time would have Henry finish his feud with Show and then feud with the returning Kane at Rumble.
This way build him as a monster heel.

This fantasy booking would be great against Taker
That would be great. Henry's been a legit monster as of late, and has been getting every guy he has faced. I hope they don't drop the ball before he is finally beaten by somebody like Bryan. It only makes sense for the brand to have somebody like a mid-card guy who can get a large boost to catapult up to the top rather than the ho-hum Orton ending.

Raw did a 3.1 rating, down from last week's 3.3.
They lost viewers in the second hour. Hour one was a 3.2. Hour two was a 3.0.

Listen, guys -- I want to apologize. I know I haven't been posting a lot lately, and quite frankly, I wish it wasn't that way. But, y'see, I got a new job and I'm a helluva lot busier now. But you know what? Just because I'm no longer a bum doesn't mean I won't stop visiting WrassleGaf everyday and posting. BECAUSE I AM NOT A QUITTER! I WILL NOT QUIT WRASSLEGAF BECAUSE I'M A FIGHTER!
That's all!
Seriously, though -- I'm bummed I'll be missing Raw live every week.
I loved live posting with you guys. Oh well! There's always the PPV's!

Don't worry, you'll figure out how to watch Raw with a lamp at work, post here and get away with it soon enough.

Except they now have a mindset to book to get a Twitter reaction. It's unneeded, as they were getting the same reaction on Twitter when they were normally booking, and arguably getting a better one when they were showcasing really good ideas during the course of the summer.
MitB is still supposed to have one of the largest number of live-tweets of any PPV in the last few months, and Twitter was not even highly pushed at that event.

When their booking sucks, their writing sucks, their ratings are constantly dropping from one hour to the next, and PPV buys are getting worse year over year, having something they've done on Raw trend on Twitter is like the most success they have all year 2nd only to Wrestlemania. I'm not surprised at the desperation of booking to trend.

For thise inquiring about
Epico, he is the WORSER of the two or at least was in FCW. This is Orlando "Tito" Colon, Carlito and Primo's cousin.
Did you land a job with WWE creative? Be honest.Dork Knight said:Listen, guys -- I want to apologize. I know I haven't been posting a lot lately, and quite frankly, I wish it wasn't that way.

I actually ride a shuttle home while Raw is airing, so I don't know if I'll able to lamp it. Though I did think about that today. Maybe for the future!

Preview of PWG's Steen Wolf;

Can't wait to get my hands on this one, PWG is easily my favourite company in the US and this show just looks insane. Really looking forward to seeing Cole/O'Reilly vs the Young Bucks, and the Generico/Steen ladder match.

My favorite Muppet moment from this week's Raw has to be when Cody meet Kermit. The heavy breathing and angry stare that Cody gave Kermit was hilarious. The bag part was alright too.
Runner up would go to Christian calling Beaker a nerd and pushing his head down.
Edit: And to all the Muppet haters just be thankful we aren't in 2008 (?) when this kind of thing was normal. I wasn't watching WWE at the time, but I youtubed some clips and saw Hornswaggle blowing up the ring, McGruber blowing up R-Truth, Hornswaggle painting a door on a wall (and using it), and of course Shawn's amazing return that started with a sweet chin music to an 8 year old girl after telling her to Suck it.
Things have gotten better if you really think about it.

Read this as "Cener Center" and thought "huh..."
Plywood (earlier) said:
If G-Fex ever wants to take a slight break from the N64, it turns out that the "Wrestlemania" series on the GameCube has really solid gameplay (most people who talk about how shitty wrasslin' games post-'64 are seem to exclusively bitch about the Smackdown games, which indeed are usually pretty terrible), but what really put it over for my friends is that the capacity for botching is unparalleled. The game -- especially WMX8 -- has a bit of an exaggerated sense of collateral damage, and there have been occasional (rare) times where a punch would connect, and all of a sudden everybody in the ring, including the guy doing the punching, would get knocked to the ground by its force because all four characters happen to be within contact range of each other.
Only sad thing is that the "no sell" block, which is practically a requirement for a WWE title, doesn't come into play until the third game in the series (Day of Reckoning), which is too refined to allow for such massive glitching.

So you have to buy a Laptop, and wireless internet connection just to watch Raw live and post on GAF. Totally worth the investment and missing your stop.
