Looks like a pretty good main event.

It should be an incredible main event, when you get matches like this on TV, this is why the shows get such high marks from me. Since they actually create good storylines and matches, rather then "Ok, this week, Vince Mcmahon takes up a half hour of television time and put's one member of DX against a male cheerleader while having the other arrested. How dramatic and new!"

It sounds good, too bad I don't have Sci Fi, I would die to see that match, although a fatal 4 way would have been better at summerslam. Anyways I hope Angle wins, but knowing Vince McMahon will choose Rob Stupid Dam to win.

He and Sabu are the guys fans want most to see with the belt. They will except a guy like Kurt Angle, but as I pointed out, people want to see ECW be ECW or a close approximation there of. Angle is a great worker, but he has been a multiple time WWE champion, but I think the point ECW is at, Vince needs to try and keep the main storylines and titles into the hands of the ECW alumni to prove that he's serious about pushing them, and not just having them be glorified job guys to the talents he's going to bring into the shows. Angle down the line would be good, but right now probably isn't the time.

So let me get this straight. You like Cena, Mysterio, and Angle, but not RVD or Carlito.

I HATE CENA AND MYSTERIO, OVERATED/

Roffle, I must do a test!

Tell me MegaGold, how do you feel about the following?

Booker T

Think he deserved to win World Heavyweight championship at 19.

Batista

Huge fan, hope he wins at summerslam.

Edge

He's alright, deserves to have the title for like 5 months or so.

DX

The best part of raw right now.

Spirit Squad

They haven't got fired yet? Kenny has a lot of potential.

Sabu

Always a fan of him. One of the best in ECW.

Big Show

I perfered him on raw with Kane.

Nitro

He's got potential, but I really don't give a crap about him, I'm more into Melina.

Kane

As I said, I perfer him with bigshow.

Regal and Finlay

Regal is alright, Finlay is awesome. I like the leprechaun thing he's been doing.

Sorry I ment wrestlemania XIX.

As far as the ECW main event next week is concerned.... I'm rooting for Sabu because these last couple of weeks we've seen Sabu trying to get a match with Big Show so it would make sense to have him win but either way its going to be one hell of a match.

Thats a pretty good site to start with. They usually don't post rumors either but every now and then they do.

Sabu/Angle/RVD ladder match?! Damn that sounds like one hell of a match. I sure hope they add the video of that to the site.

Yes he does.

Impact was good tonight the best match was homicide and daniels. The vertabreaker is the gringo killa I dont care who wins this Sunday at Hard Justice. Now I predict the winners Abyss, LAX, Shensi, Sabin, Monty Brown(pins Rhyno) and Double J. I think thats all.

The ladder match was announced on ECW.com. You can usually get news the official channels don't want known from sites like PWInsider.com, just about everybody steals from them because they're a professional site with actual industry contacts.

If the house show line-ups are any indicator post-Summerslam, it would appear RVD will probably win the match Tuesday, and begin a feud with Show for the belt. Angle and Sabu have been scheduled also to work against one another on those shows, which would lead one to believe something may be done in that match to trigger an issue between the two. But those cards could easily change.

Man, poor Khali. I kinda feel sorry for him, except that his lack of talent is so present, that it's actually kinda funny:

Credit: WrestlingObserver.com

WWE recently announced that The Undertaker will be taking on The Great Khali at next Tuesday’s SmackDown! tapings in Washington, DC rather than this year’s SummerSlam pay-per view.

This decision was made due to a string of recent House Show matches between the two. It was then deemed that Khali can’t appear on anything that airs live on television for WWE. WWE also within the past few weeks has had to edit anything that involved The Great Khali.

There remains no word on his future with WWE after the SmackDown! taping next week, but one can assume that if he is not at a point yet where he can perform, he might be sent back to developmental or let go all together.

He kind of does actually. Don't take this personal, but Rey Mysterio sucks.

LordKooler's TNA iMPACT! review
1.Rhino/Brown/Joe Falls Count Anywhere segment
Rhino cuts a promo about his Falls Count Anywhere match against Monty Brown & Samoa Joe at Hard Justice. Rhino gets attacked by Monty Brown and then Monty Brown cuts a promo saying that both Rhino & Samoa Joe will feel the Pounce. Then Samoa Joe comes out and then Rhino, Joe, and Brown get into a fight until security seperates them. In my opinion, The match should'ive been a Monster's Ball match but i'm fine with it being a Falls Count Anywhere match. I have a feeling that this match is going to be very chaotic and bloody. I think that it will appear on TNA Best of the Bloodiest Brawls Vol. 2.
2.Kevin Nash & Paparazzi Productions vs Chris Sabin & Jay Lethal & Sonjay Dutt
Thank god Kevin Nash got a new theme song. His previous TNA theme was one of the worst theme songs in wrestling history. Chris Sabin has a new theme too. I think that Kevin Nash's new theme is a recycled theme. I can't remember who used that theme song before Nash. Chris Sabin, Jay Lethal & Sonjay Dutt won at the end. Jay Lethal has been added to the X Division title match at Hard Justice and Johnny Devine will wrestle Eric Young at Hard Justice. Who will face the X Division champion at next month's TNA PPV No Surrender? Kevin Nash? Or Chris Sabin?
3.Homicide vs Christopher Daniels
It was a good match but the interference from Konnan & Hernandez ruined it. After Homicide won, AJ Styles came out and saved his tag team partner from LAX.
4.Abyss vs Shark Boy
After Abyss squashed Shark Boy. Brother Runt dived off the TNA logo on top of the heel ramp and attacked Abyss.
5.Christian Cage vs Scott Steiner
During the match Jeff Jarrett interfered and Christian won by DQ. Then Jarrett puts Christian in the Scorpion Death Lock. Then the lights go out and Sting appears in the ring and gives Jarrett the Scorpion Death Lock!

Here's an interesting tidbit from PWInsider:

I got this from MediaWeek.com. "A two-part airing of A&E Dog the Bounty Hunter reached a new zenith on Tuesday, Aug. 8, with 4.0 million viewers from 9-11 p.m. The 10 p.m. airing ranked second behind this season's record holder, Flight 93, in both adults 18-49 (2.7 million) and adults 25-54 (2.6 million)." This was a heavily promoted block and was Tuesday's highest rated cable show, but it only beat ECW On Sci Fi by 0.1 of rating point. ECW has been a big success for Sci Fi. They were originally hoping that it would do a 1.4 rating internally when it started.

ECW: Continuing to defy expectations : )

well with such a continual good rating it's almost a done deal that ECW will be picked up again either by sci-fi or USA may want it. I would be all for a move to the USA channel so that I could finally be a regular viewer.

I'm kinda annoyed how SmackDown!'s main event for SummerSlam has little to no build up...AT ALL...

Booker and Batista is so easy to create a fued with, just use the incident that happened a few months back. But it's stupid. Batista going "Thanks for holding my title for me, but i'm gonna get it back" bal blah blah.

Usually I don't post matches but this is a 5 star match... Cm Punk and Samoa Joe II. The third one was posted here not long ago so I decided to add another one... If you're going to watch this match be warned... Its really long.

http://video.google...=7446519631173946836

I get giddy whenever I see Jimmy Hart do anything.

Well, I've gone for awhile, eh? Nevermind that, I'm back and I'd like to comment on some of the things from this week (minus Smackdown).

RAW was pretty bland. Nothing too interesting. Hopefully next week is better.

ECW was actually pretty good. I enjoyed the main event. And I actually did enjoy Kevin Thorne's match. He seems very promising. (and I also like the fact that his manager his so fucking hot!) Of course, I also noticed the "botch heard 'round the world". I was wondering "What the fuck? He didn't even hit him!"

TNA, well...I enjoyed the Fallen Angel's match and I enjoyed the main event. That's about it. Other than that, it was like watching WCW again...WCW with a makeover, that is...

The thing about Edge is that you know for a fact that he is one of the better wrestlers on the roster, he has multiple show and PPV stealing matches to his name. It's just that he has been in a fued with Cena for what seems like and eternity, and that makes you forget all that. Just think back a little to his matches with HBK. Weren't those great? Or how about his fued with Kurt? You can't tell me he and Angle didn't put on a hell of a show. So really when he and Carlito started to tear it up it realy came as no surprise to me. I really hope we get a singles match out of it for next week, or even better a furture PPV match between the two.

I know what some of you may be thinking: "Hey Outlaw I thought you didn't like Edge, what's the deal?" Well yes and no. I like Edge the wrestler and character. I think the "Rated R Superstar" is just right for him and he is doing a great job with it. And to be honest I had always liked he and Christian from the start when they were part of The Brood. However I am not fond of Edge the person. Sure I can forgive and forget but it just makes you lose some respect.

I just watched the recent episode of ECW on Global. I didn't watch the whole thing because it interfered with the Smackdown rerun. The only things that I saw on ECW were Big Show's promo, CM Punk's promo, and the Kurt Angle vs Sabu match. I'll watch the whole thing when that episode is rerun. Smackdown has been moved to a new time yesterday. It's now on from 8:00 pm to 10:00 pm on The Score. The bad news is that it interferes with Inu Yasha from 9:00 pm to 9:30 pm. Right now i'm watching the Smackdown rerun. Expect a review at 2:00.

Tommy Dreamer has posted a new "Diary of Violence" on ECW.com, and as promised he covers the time that's passed since the column was suspended. It's an excellent read as it mixes work and shoot with Tommy's own sense of humor. Tommy and Joey's columns on the site are destination reading for me, sadly, Tazz's audio reports never work for me. I'd like to see them do a text transcription somewhere.

LordKooler's Friday Night SmackDown! review
1.Great Khali segment
Daivari cuts a promo in the ring and talks about the Undertaker. Then the lights go out and Undertaker comes to the ring and attacks Khali! The last man standing match won't happen at Summerslam, It'll happen next week. I hope Undertaker destroys The Great Big Jobber Bitch Khali next week.
2.Gregory Helms vs Tatanka
The reason why Gregory Helms is the longest reigning Cruiserweight Champion is because he rarely defends the title. With London & Kendrick and Jamie Noble & Kid Kash in the Tag Team division, Rey Mysterio & Chavo Guerrero in the Heavyweight Division, Super Crazy out with liver problems, and Nunzio & Shannon Moore in ECW, Helms has no competition. Unless they turn Psicosis face and have him face Helms for the Cruiserweight Title at Summerslam. It was a good match. Helms won at the end while Tatanka's foot was under the rope.
3.Paul London & Brian Kendrick vs KC James & Idol Stevens
KC James and Idol Stevens score the upset victory at the end.
4.Diva Search Segment
Luke Perry is the host of this segment. Leyla won at the end.
5.Rey Mysterio vs Ken Kennedy
This was the Match of the Night for me. During the match, Rey Mysterio and Chavo Guerrero brawled outside the ring and Rey accidentally hits Vickie Guerrero.
6.Vito vs Sylvan
Vito won at the end.
7.Sylvester Terkay vs Dustin Starr
Terkay won at the end.
8.Batista & Lashley vs William Regal & Finlay
When King Booker came out to do commentary, Someone held up a sign that said, "If Dennis Stamp isn't booked, We Riot." Dennis Stamp appeared in Beyond the Mat as the referee of the Terry Funk vs Bret Hart Retirement Match from 1997. He hasn't wrestled since 1991. He's most famous for saying, "I'm Not Booked." Stamp has a huge cult following, If you go to the wrestlecrap forums, Click on "The (W)rest of Wrestling and you'll see a stickied topic about Dennis Stamp called "Still Not Booked". The IWC would explode if Dennis Stamp finally gets booked. I want to see you guys join the wrestlecrap forum. It's one of the best wrestling forums. Batista & Lashley won at the end.

I'd rather see her some where else then not wrestling at all. To be honest, I don't think she is that great of a heel anyways.

She is a great heel in my opinion. do not forget that Edge did not get over as a heel before he was together with Lita. The reason why Edge is RAW's top heel right now is because he can draw heat, and most of the heat started from his feud with Matt Harsy because of Lita. I believe that she is an important reason why he is the champ right now. Edge will probably suffer in his career without Lita.

It will be kinda sad to see Lita go. She has done quite a bit in her wwe run.

I missed TNA the other night so I'l have to catch the replay today.

I was watching SD this morning and I came to this conclusion. That Turkay guy has a really fat head.

I am liking these top 10 lists. I hope to see sharkboy there.

(snip)

Now, I just wanna make a note of this, Rhino was close to making my list simply because of his promo about the Falls Count Anywhere Match. Going into the crowd just got everyone electrified and thats something you don't see too often anymore.

much better promo than he did if any in wwe.

Thats all for this week. Keep an eye on all the ECW and TNA guys next week. I have a feeling they will dominate this list.

the Hard justice ppv should be a huge contribution if you can watch it.

Hey guys, I'm back here now. I haven't watched wrestling in at least 2-3 months. I dont know why I stopped watching but I miss it so I'm starting again. Expect me in here alot, I just need to freshen up a bit and I'll be good. Till later, c'ya.

ECW dodges the Boogey bullet:

For those who haven't watched SD!, or won't. A promo was aired for The Boogeyman on Smackdown! to hype his return. So all the talk of Boogey being put into ECW was just that...talk.

I know I said that it might not be bad putting Boogey into ECW...but that was mostly trying to make lemonade from the lemon potentially handed to us. Thank the fuck christ he's not going to pollute our brand!!!! Now if only we could do something about Test and Knox...

Veterans of the club will remember when I would do this, but its time for......

Add A Caption!

Today's Pic:

I saw SD! last night, and it was interesting; I've been paying less attention to it for a little while, but I did catch:

Rey & Chavo (after Kennedy beats Rey): Ho-boy. did Eddie's widow get it in the clunker. BE CAREFUL, DUDES; THERE'S A WOMAN PRESENT THAT'S NOT A WRESTLER!!! This storyline, despite it's using a dead wrestler's name to further it (whether I dislike it or not), proves to be interesting......

The Boogeyman return promo: JBL gets creeped out at the thought while Mike Cole has fun throwing it in his face.....I love it when he gets in his shots! ^_^ "HE'S COMIN' TO GET YA'!" Like someone mentioned before, I'm seeing Booker whining to Teddy Long that he'll sue him due to the restraining order he made, and Long proceeds to remind him that he nulled & voided the restraint when he had his name changed, which'll lead to more whining.................a little predictable......

Diva Search thing: A 90210 guy gets to guest-host. Goody. I'm actually liking Leyla now - especially after the other 3 contestants made themselves look retarded. Oh, well.

Tag Team - Lashley & Batista vs Regal & Finlay: Lashley gets mugged, then manages to tag in Batista, who massacres the two dopes. Not much new there. Then I had a chuckle over him telling Booker that he wants "HIS title" back - which, to me, IS his - then they stare each other down. That probably was the highlight, along with Cole trying to get Booker to shut up.....even though he should know that it won't work. Poor bastard gets no respect, just because he isn't a wrestler.

Khali segment, with Taker's interference: Yay! We get an early present here in not having to wait for PPV - which is good for me, as I can't watch it after I broke the cable remote.... And WtF is this I'm hearing as to really why it's happening ahead of sched? What did Khali do? Because it sounds like he must've spooked a bunch of people or something....

The Vito vs Sylvan match was same old, same old.

I should start paying more attention to SD! again, but I watch it in my room, and I get distracted. I watch RAW! in the living room - that is, when I'm allowed to watch it - so I'm paying attention to it easier.
