Not sure how it works but thought that cable and network TV had different systems?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rob_Van_Dam#Personal_informationVan Dam also owes his life to fellow wrestler Randy Orton. After a night of intense marijuana smoking, RVD began to hallucinate. He believed he was a glass of orange juice. Insanely high, he dialed a random number on his phone, believing it to be the "Orange Juice Cops". It was, in fact, Randy Orton's phone number. Orton rushed to his home and stopped RVD from, quote, "Drinking himself by putting a straw through his eyeball into his brain."

I don't see why anyone should be obligated to point out any positives if there really are none.Biohazard said::lol this thread isn't complete without Outcast's views. Tell me Outcast, what is the WWE doing right if you had to say.

What did ECW used to get for ratings? Because once they move away from the wwe stuff, you're probably looking around that figure.bjork said:They only thing they did right was the Zombie. ECW's oddity is infinitely more entertaining than Eugene, and they probably put 10 seconds of thought into the zombie.
She was unbelievably hot thoughG-Fex said:Yeah I didn't like it either. To me it was nothing but showboating the wwe characters and making the ecw wrestlers look like fools but it's ok cause the wwe guys are apart of ecw now. Or at least this bastardization they call ECW, the girl stripper thing/and zombie pissed me off so much cause it was just so ****ing stupid.
Here...go nuts....G-Fex said:yeah but the way it came off, looked kinda dumb, especially the bra thing. Anyone got pics of that chick from FBI?
Biohazard said:Tell me Outcast, what is the WWE doing right if you had to say.
Outcast2004 said:Um.....
Cruiserweight is dead, which is sad in itself. When you have guys like Super Crazy and Kendrick out there putting on the best matches of the night why put the division on the back burner when your main event scene is so bad?
Oh god, I've seen too many perverted jokes about HBK on these forums. I read 'boyhood dream', I think of something totally different to what it really means.jobber said:WWE-SHAWN MICHAELS-BOYHOOD DREAM - 2004

Bloodwake said:If shit like last week keeps getting good ratings, then Vince is going to go with what works.
I hope there is a big fall in ratings. Vince may be ****ed up in the head, but if ECW is not doing well, he will do what's best for business, since he is a businessman primarily. He will either cancel the re-creation of the brand or let Heyman do whatever the hell he wants. At this point, after seeing the shit on Tuesday, either or will work right now.
The profiles of Francine and Axl Rotten have been removed from ECW.com. At the moment, it is not known if they have been released from WWE.
Rotten was scheduled to appear on the 6/5 RAW, but he was a no-show. What is known is that he worked an independent wrestling show on 6/3 in Texas, and on 6/5, he was still in Texas. Rotten was scheduled for a physical that morning in Baltimore, MD, but he missed the physical and the show for some unknown reason. Also, this is supposedly the fourth time that he's missed his scheduled physical for WWE. Rotten is said to be on thin ice, if he hasn't been released already.
As for Francine, her ECW status remains a mystery. She didn't appear at ECW One Night Stand nor the inaugural ECW taping. For what its worth, she wasn't backstage at the taping on Tuesday.
Eminem said:I could do without Axl, butI wouldn't mind seeing Francine.
dskillzhtown said:People avoiding the Wellness tests? Francine hangs out big time with Missy Hyatt and we all know she is not exactly clean. I always thought that Missy would pitch a fit because she has been begging for years to get back in WWE and then her best friend gets in. I thought Missy would pitch a fit atleast. I would like to see what the deal is on that.
Darmstadtium said:There's a really good article about ECW here on PWInsider if anyone wants to check it out.
Nameless said:Don't Francine and Missy Hyatt run a pornsite together?:lol :lol :lol :lol :lol
bjork said:I heard Daffney is on that site as well. That would almost make me pay for it, because Daffney = sex
dskillzhtown said:Not that I have been to said site, but it is a site that Missy gets naked, Francine does bikini shots. No ****ing or nothing. I saw the member's side and one part was literally Missy sitting in front of a webcam and describing her day. She wasn't naked or nothing, just talking about stripping and going to school. Not exactly the most exciting stuff. She also had photo shoots of herself and Francine, again Missy completly nude and Francine either in a bikini or covering all the good parts. I think the hottest thing Francine did was lay on her back while covered by a 'bikini' made of whipped cream. The also had pictures from indy shows and wrestling conventions they had been to. Just not exciting at all. Not worth 5 bucks a month, much less what she was trying to charge.
Missy had some bullshit on there about VH-1 picking up the rights to Francine and Missy's site to make a TV show about them, ya right. If you live in her town in Florida she has her strip schedule on her site, or atleast used to. So you can get a lapdance from a wrestling 'legend'. I remember a few years ago she was doing some sweepstakes, that the winner would get a night of sex with her.
I admit I checked the site just now after reading it, and yes Daffney is in there. I don't know if she gets naked though.bjork said:I heard Daffney is on that site as well. That would almost make me pay for it, because Daffney = sex
