Blockbuster main event announced
By Louie Dee, wwe.com
June 29, 2006

This Tuesday night, ECW returns to Philadelphia for the first edition of ECW on Sci Fi in the old stomping grounds. It will be the Fourth of July, and there will be some fireworks in the Wachovia Center that night as a blockbuster main event has just been announced.

In the main event, WWE and ECW Champion Rob Van Dam will defend both of his championships against Edge in an Extreme Rules Match.

There ya go.
 
Monday morning I'm leaving for a week for my cottage in Michigan where I will be loaded and fishing all day for a week, and I'm not sure if missing Raw and ECW is a good thing or a bad thing.


I'm sure they'll both be great since I won't be able to see them =(
 
if I see that god damn Burger King commerical one more time I really think I might go crazy...I thought it was just on during WWE programing ...but no that thing is everywhere.

I really think it's making me dislike Burger King.
 
I know this is really reserved only for John Cena but can we get a same old crap for Jeff Jarrett who is once again champion.
 
The only justification on Jarrett having the belt is if they have Joe steamroll him at Bound For Glory or whenever (I hope to god they're not so stupid to give away Joe's first title match with no buildup at Victory Road).

He's not being released (yet), but is supposed to be sent back down to OVW for "more training" after next week's Smackdown!, IIRC.

I bet they bring him back when Benoit comes back.

That's what I'm thinking. Joe can't just beat someone dumb like Christian or Steiner for the belt. He has to beat the most hated guy there.

You know Joe vs Jarrett is going to headline Bound for Glory. There's no bigger possible matchup in TNA. Some bullshit will happen at Victory Road, then, if TNA knows what they're doing, they'll have Joe nearly murder Jarrett at the next PPV in the stiffest way possible.

They can always do the Sting/Joe program after anyway. And the best thing about Joe being champion is he can work with anyone and have great matches.
 
I just read the TNA site and rewatched the segment... nothing clarifies when Jarrett defends that belt. I guess he's not defending it at Victory Road, it's going to be at the next PPV.

So the Samoa Joe/Jeff Jarrett buildup should be pretty awesome.

If Samoa Joe isn't the winner... well then, who the **** cares?
 
PWTorch:

When the idea of bringing back DX had come up, Shawn Michaels decided to do what was right for business and go through with the angle. He was said to be somewhat against the idea but apparently had changed his mind and seemed to not care about the DX antics.

However, now it seems as if his personal beliefs are being met with conflict. Earlier today, we found out that Shawn Michaels had a close meeting with the WWE in regards of the current state of DX. Michaels has asked that he please be pulled out of this angle as soon as possible or at least around SummerSlam. This story is just coming in so we have not received a response yet from WWE officials or anyone else from the WWE. Word has it that there will be some furious people that HBK will have to deal with.

I thought it was common knowledge that Shawn hated this and wanted kept as short as possible. He went along with it, but when it comes to the wacky antics, you can tell he isn't really into it. He is doing stomach chops, not crotch chops!! Not sure how this is new news.

They should go along with it though. Have Shawn one day just stop a DX skit in mid-stream and turn to HHH telling him that he can't do this crap anymore. Tell him that he is a new man now and this DX stuff is not something he can do anymore. Setting up a Summerslam match between the two. Then HBK can go get his knee worked on. That is a pretty simple angle to do, but let's see what idea Vince goes with.
 
On Wrestlecrap Radio, they said Vince didn't like Paul Burchill's pirate gimmick, and didn't know anything about Johnny Depp's Captain Jack. WTF! Damn you Vince and your Bubble!

Vince is said to be disappointed in the Marine, but he was all about See No Evil, so there's no telling just how unbelievably shitty this movie can be.


The Marine has been screened already. This thing has been on the shelf for the better part of a year and a half.

According to those who HAVE seen it, it makes See No Evil look like a multi-time Oscar winner.

GEe, I wonder if he'll overcome the odds in that movie?

They'll put the WWE title back on Cena, and then shove the movie down our throats. Fangirls 16 and under who this movie 2-5 times, little kids, and WWE marks who will buy/see ANYTHING if it has a WWE superstar in it, will cause this film to atleast break even.
 
Dear GAF,

Today something weird happen... I read this thread early this morning and got really annoyed. EVERYTHING is bad in the wrestling world it seems... there is nothing new with that though the wrestling world has been terrible for years but it for me it now seems worse than that... You see I sat down to watch SD tonight and even though I know it will suck I still watch most of it but with a little bit of sadness to how crap it is.... This has changed now though. Now I have anger (maybe I have fury!!!)

As I watched the show anger built in me. First came Mizark Henry which made me blurt out the word "why"... I then quickly fast forwarded through this part. Next I saw Rey come out who it a guy that less than a year ago I loveed to watch but today I did not care as I continued to fast forward. I keep going until after the advert and on comes Super Crazy/ Phicosis which I watched and though it was ok as was Kennedy....Kennedy 3 minute match but then out came The “decidedly under average” Kalhi which made me fast forward like again. From this point I skipped through most of the show till I let it play at normal speed again and heard Michael Cole say something about how fantastic the Great American Bash would be. At this point I got mad as hell and just delete the show from my DVR as i did not give a shit about the cage match which would follow...

I then thought back to the latest news about ECW and got even more angry at Vince. Then I pop on here and read some more news and i just get even more pissed of at the whole thing so i grab the remote and delete anything got to do with WWE, ROH, TNA or "ECW" that is set to be recorded, then i go to my bookmarks and remove all the dirt sheets from there to...

I know many said it before but i am done with wrestling for now. The only thing that makes the shows entertaining anymore is the GAF threads about them so I am taking a break for this shit. I always said I would watch RAW no matter what but far to many people just watch out of habit and that is the reason the show is so crap right now as WWE has no reason to change if the ratings stay high…

I have been disappointed with wrestling for years but now I am just angry at the whole product and no longer feel like watching it (for a while at least...)

I feel your pain, and sometimes I wish I could just stop watching it, but I can't. I've been watching wrestling religiously since I was 4 years old(almost 20 years), its hard for me just to stop follwing it. I mean I hardly watch Smackdown, partly because it sucks but mostly because its taped and I'm USUALLY too busy for wrestling on fridays anyway, but if it were live I would make time.

There are always "funks" in wrestling, as I'm sure you know, when there just isn't much interesting going on. Thats when things like this thread come in handy. I can say without question, that this thread makes Raw atleast twice as entertaining than it would otherwise. Back in 02 when Raw was going through it's Goldberg, Steiner, NWO, Triple H killing everyone phase the AIM chat the 4-5 wrestling fans from the previous forum I posted it helped a lot too.

TNA PPVs are atleast one amazing show per month, ROH is still gold IMO, I've gotten more into CZW than ever this year, and the past couple of weeks I've really gotten into the Japanese stuff again. There is other great wrestling out there, and every once in a while WWE will through out a bone or two like this past week with Edge vs. RVD, and Angle vs RVd. If nothing else, "ECW" seems good for a great match a week, and Edge vs. RVD II should be another one.

You don't think Benoit will go to ECW instead?

They said that everyone else was liking the angle, but Vince couldn't understand why a pirate would act like a good guy. Then they said "He's like Johnny Depp in Pirates of The Caribbean," and Vince didn't know WHO HE WAS. :lol

I like Blade Braxton's new name for ECW:

AECW = Angle, Edge, and Cena Wrestling :lol

.

This is EXACTLY why I'm so critical. I've got what's called "the sickness" for this wacked out hobby. To the poitn I'm considering trainign to do it on the side.

I'm critical because I KNOW it can be beter and it sucks that Vince has lost touch so much.

TNA and ROH are my only real options for a GOOD show.
 
Vince does not even knows who Captain Jack is FFS!!!!

He is the worst pirate you ever heard of vince... at least you were supposed to heard of him!!
