Anyone wanna buy Eugene's cookie?

Um...The bid for the cookie is already up to $26.00!:eek_2: You really have to wonder what the "lucky" bidder to win this silly auction actually plans to do with it. For that much cash, the cookie had better be huge and impressive looking...

*bangs head against wall repeatedly* Gah...Haas and Rico lost the Tag Team title belts!:mad: I enjoy watching these two perform, and it really sucks for them to go down in utter defeat, especially to the Dudleys.

I'm beginning to love Rico and Charlie more and more each week. They have a good chemistry together!:)

Haas is starting to come along nicely in learning how to work the crowd. He is quickly learning to strategize around his partner’s unique offense, while Rico looks like he's having an absolute blast! Their pairing was brilliant, and I had hoped that the WWE would have the sense to leave the Tag belts on them for a little while longer.:(

Bubba tearing up that fan's sign was pretty mean...I would be pretty steamed if that happened to me!:angry:

Fifi wearing a beret was adorable! Um...But did anyone notice that she was white again this week? Why does she keep changing colors? Does Rene spray paint her or something?:tickled:

I thought that Luther Rains looked a bit like Brock Lesnar when he had his back to the camera in that backstage segment.

It looks as if John has his hands full in that Elimination Match at the Great American Bash. Will he finally drop the US Title to someone else? Say...When was the last time he used the Throwback in a match? That move could pass for a finisher and he should do it a lot more often! Especially the "perfect" version where he goes completely OVER the opponent, without veering a little off to the sides in his trajectory...

It looks kinda silly when Kenzo grabs his opponent's face in preparation for his finisher (What do you call that move?). Its as if he were trying to suck the soul out of their head or something!:loco:

Hey...Taker DOES have a handicap match against the Dudleys at the Great American Bash! My little prediction came true! So Paul Bearer will be stuffed into a glass crypt at the PPV and if the Deadman fails to do the right thing, Heyman will fill the crypt with cement?:eek:

So what exactly IS the "right" thing to do? Lay down to the Dudleys or beat them senseless? I don't get it. How are the Dudleys, Heyman and Taker supposed to be a team if Heyman actually WANTS them facing each other?

Mmmm...*thinking to herself what this could possibly mean*. Mind games certainly do make for some of the BEST storylines!

Taker squished Cena and RVD! And another bow to the Heyman-controlled urn!:annoyed: What a misguided attempt by that scheming flab to humble the Deadman and reinforce his control! This is so going to blow up in Heyman's face...I hope Taker can actually get ahold of Heyman at the GAB. I think that it would be ironic if Taker starts to just beat the life out of Heyman after he frees Paul Bearer and finishes off the Dudleys, and Bearer has to step in to stop him. It's been a long time since we last saw him grab Taker by the hair and pull him off of someone.

And what I'm really looking forward to is the Great American Bash itself, with Taker taking on both Dudleys. Cena versus the goons. The Bull Rope battle between Eddie and Bradshaw...GAB is certainly going to be really colorful in its matches. Ugh...Once again, my lack of cable leaves me feeling miserable...But I can still count on you guys for spoilers, right?;)

Before draft: Raw sucked, Smackdown was pretty good.

After draft: Raw is pretty good, Smackdown is a pile of poop(and getting worse).

Exactly. I do not know exactly why, but up until Wrestlemania Smackdown was SMOKING, and now they're just Steaming. :blow_top:

@ Ikumi

Kenzo's Face grab is called an Iron Claw. Some German dude use to do it in the old days, his name is on the tip of my tongue, damn!

Fritz Von Erich I believe! :cool:

Thank you Andy!:)

Smackdown certainly does seem to be the place for debuting more extravagant, "gimmicky" characters now. I am slowly growing to like Mordecai, but Kenzo still fails to impress me.

It seems kinda odd how they like to focus the camera directly on his face and he starts making those angry scary expressions. And I think they ought to replace the masked goon squad that carry him out to the match. Those poor guys look really out of shape and ready to collapse under the weight of the platform! Where are some good ninjas when you need them?:p

Hmmm...I know that there are plenty of things we see on WWE television that qualify as idiotic and silly, but who says Vince has any intentions of snagging an Emmy or an Oscar for his shows?:D

I really enjoy the goofy storylines and the bad acting. Every now and then, the dramas are actually pretty good and/or funny. Besides watching the Showster and Taker squish people, that's what keeps me tuning in!

I'm sure that the vast majority of those who watch wrestling don't sit there for two hours straight and analyze the show. They just simply watch, whether they throw something at the TV or yell along the way. At times that's what we should do (minus the throwing stuff at the TV and the boorish yelling); be a childish fan. I refuse to watch it at all if I don't plan on simply enjoying it for what it is. Lousy actors finding inane reasons to beat each other senseless!:make_fac:

Speaking of acting, who do you guys consider to be the "best" and "worst" actors that ever worked for the WWF/WWE?

I say that Taker and Angle are two of the best "actors" the WWE have at the moment!

Taker - *tries to keep drooling under control* The characters and "fantasy" aspects of wrestling are why I love the WWE so much, not so much for the actual wrestling itself. The immortal Phenom is the character that first drew me into the "sport". A great and WONDERFUL character, actor, and person!:drool:

Kurt Angle - A great lousy actor! He has impeccable comic timing and isn't afraid of making himself look stupid to carry a storyline along. The top moment that comes to mind is when he walked out of his locker room to join the Undertaker, wearing an American flag bandanna and little sunglasses. That was so hilarious!:tickled:

Eddie Guerrero - I think Eddie is a good actor...But he overreacts far too often. In any case, his expressions when angry are just very convincing!

John Cena - His impression of Booker T was painfully horrible to watch *shudder*, but he's generally great when simply trash-talking. And I think that he had more of an edge back when he was a heel.

Also, the refs are not very good actors...All of them are so fragile! They lay on the ground for like five minutes then can barely stand up after somebody gets pushed into them. A strong breeze could probably send these guys into a coma!:emb:

This should make Ikumi happy. The Big Show is coming back!

WWE SmackDown! Superstar Undertaker® , who made his triumphant return at WrestleMania® XX, will be making his Australian debut. Undertaker is one of the most popular and recognized WWE Superstars of all time. The former WWE Champion was recently featured in The Greatest 50 Superstars of all time in WWE Magazine.

Fans can also expect to see WWE Champion Eddie Guerrero™, the 7 foot- two inch, 500 pound, Big Show™, John Cena™, RVD™, John "Bradshaw" Layfield™, Booker T™, Rey Mysterio™, The Dudley Boyz™ and WWE Diva Torrie Wilson™, plus many more SmackDown! Superstars.

The tour doesn't start until late August. I hope the Big Show return before the tour starts.

though they may have just inadvertantly added his name, because after all he is a Big name on Smackdown, whether or not he will actually be a part of the show in the end.

Just like they still kept hyping wreslters for House Shows after they have switched brands...

Yes.... Fritz Von Erich " Master Of The Iron Claw" AKA Jack Adkisson. Unfortunately, the Von Erich Clan has been plagued with 4 deaths...3 of which were suicides (Kerry Von Erich AKA Texas Tornado...and his brother Mike Von Erich who wrestled in WCCW and Chris Von Erich. The had a yonger brother who was killed at the age of 7 due to an accident involving electricity. Out of 5 sons, only one is still alive today :crying: .

Trivia....Kerry Von Erich, during his wrestling career, was in an accident that involved the removal of one of his feet. He wrestled with a special orthopaedic boot for 6 years.

I've never talked to anyone who liked the Texas Tornado, only I did. I liked his look, and his moveset, and that's all you needed then.

I loved his Finishing Move, where he started running around his opponent really fast, and even tilted towards his opponent while running. I don't remember what move he actually did after though.

Wasn't it a Discus (Roundhouse) Punch to the facial area?
