Does anyone else dislike the divas? I have nothing against the ones who can wrestle, but the divas that are there for eye candy....

that is why i loved the matches between trish stratus and mickie james. they were on par with the men's matches, even better than some of them.

Some of those matches were good, but there were so many blown spots too.

Yeah but at least they could sell moves. The Smackdown divas just flop around like fish out of water.

Anyways there's "rumors" that Lashley vs The Great Khali for the ECW Title is on for Wrestlemania...oh god he was so horrible and now they're going to give him a title shot?

And one of the biggest BS ever in WWE history is there's "rumors" of Hogan/Taker for Wrestlemania....That is the lowest way to end Taker's streak. You know Hogan NEVER jobs.

I wonder who Batista is going to face at the Royal Rumble. Whoever it is, I hope they win.

I have always loved New Japan and I'm sure the show will be great but I don't know what the attendance will be. I'm going to guess 30,000 and even that seems a bit high.


Normally I love being right, but I am kinda sad that I am right here about the Tokyo Dome show. They only managed to get 28,000 for the joint show.

I've read that sections of the dome were closed though so the max attendance would have only been in the upper 30,000 range? Either way, its not a great number but not a bad number either. They probably should have went somewhere else that would have probably been cheaper and guaranteed full, but I guess its their pride and traidition to be in the Tokyo Dome.

I think they should have run Saitama Super Arena, that place holds 38,000. I guess they wanted the novelty of running a Dome show.

You've got it all wrong, HBK. It's supposed to be Batista/Taker for the belt at WM not Hogan/Taker. It's Hogan/Show that wants to be planned (...Hogan/Andre).

maybe "rumors" was the wrong word to use, but it was posted on JR's online blog about possible opponents for Hogan at wrestlemania, and Taker's name came up and I was thinking if it would happen, it would suck.

I'm assuming Cena and Batista are going to keep the titles at the Rumble so I'm pretty sure a heel is going to win. And I'm pretty sure an ECW guy isn't going to win. What if Jericho made a surprise return and wins!!! That would be the most awesome thing to happen in the WWE(forme) since Kurt Angle won the title last year.

I dunno why but lately I'm starting to watch TNA more than WWE.

few years back. I really dont like TNA but after I watched some matches on Youtube and on TV, I just got hooked lol. maybe I just don't like on what WWE is feeding us recently especially the Trump v O'Donnel match plus HHH is injured. In TNA they just finished the feud on Abyss, Sting and Christian Cage. and now they have Angle v Christian &/v Samoa Joe. the matches are not that bad IMO.

TNA impact may be not as good as RAW and Smackdown at this poing, but I think impact is waaay better than ECW IMHO.

TNA is good, they just need to stop trying to be like WWE and take shots at WWE and just do their own thing because the talent they have right now is good enough to grab the attention of lots of fans. Plus, even the crappier segments on impact are better than segments on Raw like that rosie and donald thing....

Smackdown is far superior to Raw. Who cares if it's the B show. It constantly puts on good matches that are enjoyable to watch. The divas are a different story though. The Benoit/Chavo match was a good one but Chavo needs to work on his frog splash. I hope Batista loses the title, but if its going to be Batista/Taker at wrestlemania, I don't care for another Taker title run, I just don't want to see his streak ended by Batista who can't even wrestle.

I thought it would be interesting if people could give out their 2007 predictions even though 2007 is already one month in. Hopefully by next year on January 1st, we can remember this and see if our predictions came true or not. So what are your guys thoughts? These can be as crazy as you want them to be. I haven't read any "spoilers" lately so I don't know any upcoming storylines.

My prediction for the Royal Rumble winner is going to be Orton. Orton and Cena will start a feud and Orton will fall short of winning at Wrestlemania however beat Cena in a rematch. Cena will also turn heel towards the end of the year.

The Undertaker won't win the Rumble, but he will win a Royal Rumble type match on Smackdown and headline Wrestlemania with Batista. Taker wins the title from Batista at WM and goes on to feud with Kennedy, finally putting Kennedy over once more and Kennedy wins the World Heavyweight Champion.

CM Punk will be called over to Raw where he will start a feud with most likely Edge and/or Orton(if Orton isn't involved with the WWE Championship).

The Great Khali will at some point win the IC belt and we will have one of the most boring reigns of all time.

The draft comes back this year, and (assuming he isn't champ)Taker will be drafted over to Raw.

With Triple H out for a while, a heel Chris Jericho will return on Raw to challenge Cena for the WWE Championship and finally have a good reign(though he should return to Smackdown).

MVP will get a push and becomes the US Champ or perhaps challenge for the WH Championship.

Hulk Hogan manages to somehow clone himself. He challenges the clone at WM and they both try to use their backstage powers to get themself a win. The sheer power of 2 Hulkamanias will collide and literally tear down the building and Hulkamania will officially killed Hulkamania.

So what are your guys thoughts? Post them and it'll be interesting to see what everyone wants to see happen in 2007.

WSX goes by way too fast, matches are way too short and the camerawork is really bad but some of the talent they have are great like Human Tornado and Jack Evans. Maybe if they get a longer timeslot they can work on longer matches.

I hated WSX based on the first two episodes but after reading about other people's opinions about it, I've changed my stance. It's a different product from the other wrestling shows out there and it's immediately visible from the ring announcer to the exploding things around the ring to the guest ring announcer. These differences help give the show some identity. Also they have a entertaining roster. If Teddy Hart, Human Tornado, Jack Evans, Team Dragon Gate is indicative of the people in WSX, we could see some very good matches in this fed.

It's already scored a 1.0 in ratings which TNA struggled for a long time to get. If they can put it all together, they may be a viable alternative on Tuesday Nights to ECW.

WSX, in terms of wrestling, is good. In terms of a wrestling SHOW, sucks. I'm impressed with what they do but I can't fully enjoy their work due to all the obscure camera angles and poor editing. It's like...you can't really focus on what they're doing (or even know what they're doing), when the cameras constantly moving around and the camera angles are changing at wrong parts. I seriously hate it when they show the audience and commentary. It gets in the way and makes it painstakingly obviously that there are several parts of a match being cut out.

Ring announcer, annoying.
CGed explosions...not needed. We know it's fake, don't push it.

Yes, it's a different product, but they can't really make a name for themselves if the presentation of the show isn't done in a viewable manner.

Now...the last 2 episodes...sucked...I couldn't stand the editing. This week, though, got a bit better. It was less annoying to watch. If they continue with what they did this week, WSX will do good.
