JEFFHARDYBRAND ComeCmyDogs tomorrow night at tha RockShop...FramingHanley up in Fayettville/nam..I'll be there..so should you!!!!

Translation please?

The only reason the current product is watchable is b/c of CM Punk. I think the word stale is being generous. The main problem with WWE currently is not producing good storylines or pushing new wrestlers. To me, it's common sense that unless the matches and storylines are good, then WWE can't recover from the slump they are in. With that being said, the shows have been some better with the buzz from CM Punk. If they take advantage of it and can keep being more creative, maybe the momentum gained could turn things around. Of course, not listening to the fans is another huge issue.

Being PG or not isn't a big deal for WWE, if they can be creative and develop new wrestlers. Keeping things fresh is about more than the rating attributed to the show. Even with the PG limitation, they can work around it. But, for some reason, they coast by week after week not really putting much into it.

Yeah, well WWE doesn't seem to be working overtime to use their brains more. If they were, we'd be seeing more cutting edge storylines and wrestlers...

WWE needs to come up with a final solution to dominate and blitz the rasslin world.

Framing Hanley (band) playing The Rock Shop in Fayettville. Apparently he will be there & wants others to also attend.

Why he called them dogs, I don't know.

Also have no idea what that "/nam" is supposed to mean.

"Weird" without two stickied threads at the top of this forum. Gonna have to get used to it.

Why is the YouTube thread even still stickied?

Is that a actual pic/action figure?

'cuz Stone Cold said so?

Big Smackdown Spoiler:

LOL

that could have been a whole lot worse than it was

Couldn't have been much funnier though :lol:

And again, you undermine your own point by affirming that the problem is more the writers than the rating.

Hmmmm.

Trolling?

This has been my whole point all along. And CM Punk isn't the only reason WWE isn't completely stale. I've found myself watching all of Smackdown the last few weeks and only parts of Raw. This is coming from somebody who hasn't watched anything outside a few random PPVs and Mania the last 10 years. I got tired of WWE before the attitude boom ended, and only had a passing interest from then til here recently. I'm watching again now. Do you really think I'm the only one that's getting into the product again?

The Ultimate Fighter says hello.

It will be edited

Not only I said change the PG rating (which most people would say), I also came out with things I also noticed over the years like rehashing storylines, the lack of actual wrestling time, and resurrecting three divisions (Cruiserweight, Women's (real, not the Diva bullshit Vince has), and Tag Team).

Good thing he didn't keep his fingers on the side of the table.

COLE: Why are we still talking about Daniel Bryan? Why aren't we talking more about Heath Slater?

BOOKER T: Because Daniel Bryan has a great story.

COLE: How do you know Heath Slater doesn't have a story? You didn't do any research on him.

BOOKER T: I know he was in a band. I know he was the only one in it.

***

:lol:

Booker T is amazing

lol

Tag Team wrestling, Cruiserweight's and women's wrestling don't draw. Never have, never will. Why people are obsessed with this is beyond me. Concentrate on writing better main event storylines.

Find CM Punk

<iframe width="560" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/yM_cHRvzTYw" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

People generally want wrestling booked for them specifically.

They confuse "what I like" with "what will draw."

Which is why so many people will insist that Jobber "X" should be a main eventer.

What a terrible song.

haha saw that earlier when caught the end of smackdown, thanks for the reminder to watch it later!

I found eeeeeem

Actually, I've said all along that WWE being uncreative and lazy booking has been as much to blame as the PG rating. How is that undermining my point if I said it to start with? And how is that trolling exactly if I've been on topic?

i'm beginning to think more and more you are the one who needs to use your brain more...

To me, the only reason WWE has been relevant is b/c of CM Punk. He's the one exception to someone who has pushed the envelope while still being PG limited. Some may disagree with that perception, but then again, that's just one guy's views. True, other things have kept me interested like Cena/Rock and Orton/Christian. For the most part though, I have been underwhelmed with their shows since 2004-2005.

And I'm sure with the CM Punk angle and the recent return of The Rock, several old fans flipped back onto the shows. Hell, that was proven on RAW last week when they got almost a 4 in ratings. That has been the highest rating they have attained in quite some time.

The PG label can be worked around, but it takes alot of creativity and effort which hasn't even been noticable until recently. Hopefully, that trend will continue and not just a short term thing...

He's at 0:15 as well. I pity you that you had to listen that far.

Apparently Jimmy Jacobs was backstage at MitB and Raw, and had a tryout. I don't think it'll happen, and I doubt they'd use him right, but I would LOVE if Jacobs ended up in WWE,

CM Punk rolls deep with that DMS clique. I love me some H2O.

I :rofl:'d so much when I saw this.

I'm new here.
 

I'm name is SexyLady. I love watching wrestling. I like at the superstar and diva.

:)

This should be good.

What's your favorite match?

I'm name is dhellova guy. If your going to gunna call yourself SexyLady, you am gunna hafta post pix of yourself so we can decide if you is or not.

What the fuck is this?

If I had to guess I'd say it's some kind of Samoan tribal dance/ritual

Thank you I'm favorite match would was When Triple h and the undertake :) at wrestlemania 27.

Who are your favorite wrestlers?

I think it's called a Haka (or something like sounds like that). And, yeah, it's a traditional Samoan dance.

Lyrics:
Ka mate! Ka mate! Ka ora! Ka mate! Ka mate! Ka ora! tenei te tangata puhuru huru! Nana nei i tiki mai! Whakawhiti te ra! A upa! Ka upa! A upane kaupane whiti te ra! HI! USO!

Translated: I live! I live! I die! I live! I live! I die! This is the hairy man, who fetched the sun, and caused it to shine again! One upward step! Another upward step! One upward step! Another! The sun shines at dawn! Brother! (if you include the USO! scream)

It looks like an attempt to get over.

I have noticed the Usos - since the face turn, with the Hakas and the dancing and stuff - have looked a lot better over the last few weeks.

DumbKellyKelly Amy Winehouse died. Another sad wrestling tragedy. :(

I believe the recent surge of mainstream attention the WWE has received is due to Mark Henry's push.

<iframe width="425" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/-_CaSu-fnGg" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

I was gonna make a thread about this. Are the Usos actually over or do you think WWE is pumping noise into the broadcasts? It seems like they have been getting a huge reaction lately.

I think they're giving them some help in post, but most of the arena reports mention surprisingly good pops for them at tapings and house shows. I think if the '90s taught us anything, it's this:

Dancing Samoans = cheers.

Well, that's certainly interesting.

Too bad they don't have a tag division worth a fuck. What does it matter if they're over if there's no other real teams for them who are over? They'll just get over and either split or mysteriously go back to Superstars and never be heard from again.

Yeah. It would be nice if there was another team that could be the Edge & Christian to their Hardy Boyz.

Note: I'm not equating their talent to Matt and Jeff, but they were jobbers once, too. Both of those teams were in the midcard (lower, really) until their feud blew up, elevating all four.

HulkHogan I was afraid to quit wrestling like the Rock did. HH

The questionable "Checking the Oil" wrestling move is NOT A MYTH ... so says Hulk Hogan -- who tells TMZ he was once on the wrong end of the violating technique from 7'4" Andre the Giant!!!

http://ll-media.tmz.com/2011/07/21/0...deo-credit.jpg

Hulk's story backs up the claim made by TMZ's Mike Walters -- that wrestlers will press a finger on the bottom end of an opponent in an effort to throw them off their game ... aka "Checking the Oil."

According to Hulk, who was at LAX yesterday, Andre would oil-check people "all the time" -- and the worst part about it ... HIS FINGERS WERE HUGE!!!

http://ll-media.tmz.com/2011/07/21/0...p-2-credit.jpg

Yes, ladies and gentlemen. According to Hulk Hogan, Andre the Giant fingered him.

Posted that a few days ago.

Not as nicely though. A+ for presentation.

More big Smackdown Spoilers:

Well if that 2nd picture of Hogan is any indication, I'd assume their match at Wrestlemania IV included a special stipulation from Andre.

I guess that is why their match was a no contest since Hogan backed out from using that spot in the match :shifty:

Wasnt aware he had a shirt.."damn right I did"

lol They also kept on saying he was 79 years old but his wiki page says hes 62.

The problem being, once again, the PG rating issue is superfluous and can be removed.

As this has been explained to you, your continued failure to "get it" and continued need to distort others arguments leads me to believe you're either trolling for a response or really slow.

Kelly Kelly and Alicia Fox jumping to TNA.

It's on XWT, so posting the link wont work unless you're signed up there

Well for me this CM Punk thing and Orton's recent gainage of more moves has made me sit up and fucking watch more.

For me personally, fuck off the PG thing and let the guys have more input over what they do. I'm sure a Cena heel turn with Punk in a faction against the WWE (with Trips as the main man against Vince) kinda Corporate style would be the ideal way to kick start shit.

:cool:

Get rid of Michael fucking Cole

Have to disagree. While an improvement in Tag team, CW and women's wrestling won't cause a boom the way something like Stone Cold vs McMahon or WCW vs NWO would, to say that these things don't draw is just ignorant. For a long time, TNA's women's division was the best thing going in their company, and the ratings reflected that - ratings spikes every time they came on the air. People are drawn to the fast paced, exciting style of cruiserweights, and they've been major drawing points for lots of companies in the past, especially WCW.

I agree that better main event writing is the only thing that's going to truly change the ratings game in a major way, but that doesn't mean that tag team, cruiserweight and women's wrestling don't draw.

Exactly. Plus they need to stop rehashing storylines and come up with something original (the CM Punk wearing a mask after losing his hair is an example of that, since the wig ordeal has been used many times before).

FAIL! :rofl:

Saw it it was pretty good. Love how Nash commented on the Fingerpoke of Doom.

I find it interesting that I'm not disputing you that the PG rating isn't the entire problem, yet you still are arguing the point with me.

Also ironic you claim I don't "get it" when you are the one attempting to mislead ppl and twist facts out of context to fit your opinion. Which often times you state as the gospel truth. Like somehow what you say has more logic or proof to support yourself, when in fact, it's simple opinion. And accusing me of trolling for a response is a clever way of diverting attention that you are doing that. Obviously, you want responses to your outrageous claims, or else you wouldn't talk as if you knew everything...

Except I'm not arguing that point at all, I'm arguing that it's not a problem. I'm arguing that the problems of WWE can readily be described by other elements without touching the PG element.

...So does this mean you're for real? You really cannot understand this?

You're saying PG is not the sole problem, which is still wrong. You cite many issues, all of which are true--regardless of the PG rating. It's an extra step that can be removed from the "solutions" to "Fixing" Raw. The result? Nothing changes. Ergo, not even part of the problem.

Which is especially evident since WWE ran into writing elements well before the "PG Era" started.

If you really don't see that our claims are not at odds, learn to read.

If you're trolling, troll better.
