Those look about what I thought. Awesome predictions as usual.

Chris Jericho is doing a book tour. Here are some confirmed dates for it. here

I agree with all of yours except for your London and Kendrick prediction. If the other results go how you predicted, then I see the PPV being an amazing night of mediocre matches and no title changes. They do it often enough.

I'd realy like to see the tag titles change hands at the very least. Murdock and Cade aren't exactly big on most fans lists anyway. Course the tag division is in such a bad shape thet no one really cares at this point. Who else is there on Raw to contend for the titles? The Highlanders? They have been written off as a joke for the longest time. Only other team would be the wgtt, but wiht Hass's ame on that list, I don't think that will go anywhere. Though they could put on a hell of a match with London and Kendrick.

Might as well make some picks for Unforgiven

1. WWE Tag Team Champions Matt Hardy and MVP vs. Deuce and Domino w/ Cherry... MVP and Matt end up costing themselves the tag titles and we'll finally get Hardy vs MVP for the US Title at the next PPV.

2. World Tag Team Champions Lance Cade and Trevor Murdoch vs. Paul London and Brian Kendrick.... Its time for some change in the RAW tag team division.

3. Women's Champion Candice Michelle vs. Beth Phoenix... Candice wins via DQ and retains the title.

4. Triple H vs. Carlito (No DQ Rules for Carlito only)... Yeah, HHH wins >_>

5. Undertaker vs. Mark Henry... Mysterio won in his return match, so did HHH... This time its Taker's turn.

6. ECW Champion CM Punk vs. Elijah Burke... Punk won't lose the title this soon, much less in a match without any build-up

7. World Heavyweight Champion The Great Khali vs. Batista vs. Rey Mysterio (Triple Threat Match)... Khali wins and continues to look strong as heads towards a showdown with the Deadman

8. WWE Champion John Cena vs. Randy "IMMA FUCKING KICK YO FACE" Orton... The odds are against the champ and you know what means... Cena overcomes the odds and retains the title (Probably by DQ). Besides, I don't see Vince giving the title to a guy who was named in the steroid scandal.

Ya, everyone knows everyone will retain. It would be pointless if they didn't.... I just hope Cena wins though after what Orton did to his dad, or was it his dad?

PPV seems like a disappointment so far. What kind of PPV match ends via a roll-up?

The Cena-Orton match lasted 7 minutes and Orton won.... by DQ. I told you there would be a DQ! Randy Orton vs Cena in a Last Man Standing match will take place at No Mercy.

Taker vs Henry is the ME.... SERIOUSLY!!!

wtf? Talk about cheating the fans.. Quick matches like this should be on cable, never ever on ppv where people actually pay to see this stuff.

Everyone Retained...exept Kahli.

Well then sir, you'll be annoyed at yourself to hear that it was originally named the Lambeau Slam/Leap, before it was renamed into the Green Bay Plunge. In fact, if you wanna get really technical, the true name for it before those was "The Steamroller". Theres some trivia "that you probably didn't know."

I knew about the steamroller as that is still the name of the move when it is not done from the top rope. However, I seriously thought that you were just naming the move "Lambeau Slam". Sorry for the misunderstanding and thanks for pointing that out to me that it used to be called that.

Now about what everyone's thoughts are about WWE. It seems like most of you just constantly dis every decision that WWE makes, even when they aren't that bad. I find it funny that Hornswoggle is the son and it also makes a lot of sense. I was never expecting a push of any kind to come from it, just some fun entertainment. After all, the whole "bastard son" angle started one week after a very low rated show which led to the return of Vince and the start of a new interesting storyline to spice things up and raise the ratings. Really, it was all for the entertainment.

Disappointment. Theres two kinds of fans today. Those who came to be entertained my the mythical giant, Khali, the curious and sophomoric antics of Triple H, the unreal inhuman power Batista wields, and the CHAMP who can overcome all the odds.

I get disappointed at times too (Cena is still champ, which is FUCKING STUPID) but I just feel that people dis about things that aren't anything to get angry about. It seems that some fans here are so stubborn about what they want to see that they're only leaving a 5% chance of WWE/TNA making them satisfied. When there's a 95% chance of error by your standards, it would be pretty hard to actually enjoy watching wrestling.

Then you got the guys like us who want to see talent get elevated. We like to see wrestling with humor, not humor with wrestling. Storylines are there to push and bury talent, not the boss and his midget bastard child. We dis accordingly, which means TNA catches as much of it as WWE does, if not more.

I like to see talent get elevated too. I've been waiting for Punk to finally get the title. He deserves it greatly. However, I also keep in mind that younger wrestlers aren't always going to blossom into stars. Guys like Chris Masters will never really do anything amazing because of a lack of charisma or athletic ability (or in Masters' case, both). Considering the young guys they have, I don't really think that their doing a bad job with the pushes. Cody won every match he was in other than the 2 against Randy Orton (which were pretty much guarenteed losses as Orton needs to keep some credibility being a maineventer). MVP has mic skills and some nice inring ability and he now carries 2 championships with him. Both Hardyz have been appearing and never failing to disappoint, and now both of them carry gold as well. However, there are still going to be young guys who suck and don't deserve to be pushed. For some other younger wrestlers, pushes are attempted but because the wrestler has nothing to really offer, they can't be carried through successfully. I'm content with how the wrestlers are being pushed at the moment.

But theres one thing both types of fans can agree on. We love the business and we love to see what happens next. Like your favorite sports team, they may make all the wrong moves in all the wrong places, but they're your team dammit, and you're not turning your back on em.

Complete agreement.

Dissing whats done and hoping for something better is just how we show that love. Thats all.

I understand but I just can't stand coming here and seeing a sea of negative posts. I got tired of it and actually didn't post or even come here for a while. I decided to come back to check on things and I'm glad I did as Aviewaskewed dished out some helpful info about WWE's latest transactions. It's just that I joined this club because I'm a wrestling fan and afterall this is a fan club, not a "criticize the hell out of every move WWE/TNA makes and hope it gets better" club. But, if it's how you express your love for the business, I guess it's not so bad. We all get pissed off about certain things that happen in the wrestling world, but some things aren't all that bad and don't deserve to get dissed as if it's the end of the company. I just thought I'd share my thoughts on the matter.

From what I have heard the tag title matches were very good, even if London & Kendrick didn't get the win. I'm also glad Khali doesn't have the title anymore, now it's his turn to play the re-match game.

Great, so Batista is the champion? How is that even a believable victory after he couldn't win the title for 5 moths of constant challenges? At least with Khali, he was a heel, and was never going to hold the title for that long, but now we're probably going to have a year long Batista title reign instead.

At 9/17/07 11:52 AM, TheD-LucksEdition wrote: Yet again, WWE fucks up another PPV with shitty results. I'd never thought I'd be disappointed to see Khali lose the title. All the winning spinebuster said to me is that Khali's indestructable in Captain Scarlet proportions when you can't hit him with impact, but he can take fuck all when he is.
Plus with Batista now as WHC, with Undertaker now wanting to challenge for the title, we're going to get more Taker/Batista match-ups, most likely with the result going the other way because it isn't WrestleMania.

London & Kendrick lost, which means that we better see them win at No Mercy or else we'll never have them as champs. And by champs I mean champs that we see defend at PPVs and get decent TV time, not '3-day on foreign tour' champs.

The London and Kendrick match was bullshit they should've won that match. I was dissapointed about the PPV too it was worthless for me to buy it and actually pay attention to the matches.

I just find it funny that people spent 40 bucks to see Cena vs Orton, and they get a shitty match with a DQ finish, and then Coach announces that if you spend 40 bucks next month you'll see Cena vs Orton in a Last Man Standing Match.

Good going WWE, make the fans spend money so you can tell them to spend money on the next PPV where the good matches will actually take place.

PPVs are supposed to be where feuds are wrapped up, and the WWE just uses them to further feuds, and give us the exact same match 3 PPVs in a row. But then, do they really have much other choice, having inter-brand PPVs every 3 weeks? It's hard to wrap up a feud in three weeks.

Batista is going to keep on getting shots until he dies at the age of 90 and become a 100 times WHC. Cena is going to hold the WWE title until the whole universe explodes billions years later. Oh, wait, Cena cannot die, because death will simply tap out when Cena applies the STFU (short for shut the fuck up). Cena will hold the WWE title --- forever.

And when his father dies of old age, Cena will beat death himself in a match for the WWE title, because he cares that much about his family.

Yea, it just shows how much I am fed up with Cena being the champ.

The Hardy/Shelton match was pretty disapointing. It was mostly holds when it should have been more action. Neither of them seemed that into it either.

So how long until we see Vince McMahon versus Hornswaggle?

I was disappointed by tonight's RAW. HHH only buried Carlito, London and Kendrick and Cade and Murdoch. I was hoping for him to show up and Pedigree Orton and both Cena's, but it just wasn't meant to be.

The kind they don't care about. It's pretty obvious that ECW is NOT for establishing new talent people care about, it's for WWE to push the one or two guys they give a shit about, and the rest of them are just filler. Plus, I don't believe you EVER have a major world title match open a show. I don't care if it's your fifth, sixth, whatever show in the line of importance. You treat that belt like it matters and it's worth having, or it elevates no one and you just come off as "King of the jobbers" but that's the scheme of things I guess, and after this I think it's pretty clear WWE dosen't care about the Tuesday show as anything other then a way to make Vis and Morrison look like players. Pathetic.

I see Batista losing the belt to Taker soon, or Edge when he gets back, to me that's the money SD! match for Mania this year, Taker's streak against Edge's title, with the fact that Edge screwed him out of the belt as he went down to injury.

Not to mention the fact that Edge is also unbeaten at Wrestlemania. The two biggest Mania unbeaten streaks up against each other.

Not the best Raw has ever done. I hate the fact that they have Carlito being the jobber for HHH to beat up on. If that wasn't bad enough he destroys teh tag champs the night after they won their match on ppv, making them and London and Kendrick look pathetically weak. If one guy can take out the champs, whay couldn't the other two?

That is not bad --- at least I would rather seeing HHH as a 20 times world champion than seeing Cena holding the WWE title forever. At least HHH is a better wrestler and entertainer than Cena can ever be.

A rumor is swirling that World Wrestling Entertainment star Randy Orton attempted suicide within the last year. Very well-placed wrestling sources tell me that the rumor is true. In the wake of the June murder-suicide of Chris Benoit and the scandal involving scads of WWE performers who ordered steroids and human growth hormone from the Internet gray-market dealer Signature Pharmacy, this is serious stuff.

It's already clear that WWE's response to the Signature revelations - generated by the district attorney in Albany, New York, and reported by Sports Illustrated and others - is a joke. Some vague number of the miscreant wrestlers, not named, were "suspended," but the suspension appears to have consisted of simply being downgraded for a few weeks in TV storylines.

From the same evidence, Randy Orton was not touched at all. That is more than a little strange. Orton's Signature Pharmacy order marked, at the very least, his second "strike" under WWE's so-called wellness policy, which would have called for a 60-day (rather than a 30-day) suspension.

The suicide whispers mark the problem as more than a game of "gotcha" or even taste (Orton acquired the gimmick "Legend Killer" after WWE blithely turned Eddie Guerrero's 2005 death into just another "angle"). It's a matter of life and death. (Subsequent to the first publication of this item, readers have pointed out that the Orton actually began using the Legend Killer gimmick well before Eddie Guerrero died. It is both accurate and fair to note that the gimmick was applied with a special new level of tastelessness subsequent to Guerrero's death.)
Orton, 27, is a third-generation wrestler. He is engaged to marry Samantha Speno, a part-time gymnastics teacher, this fall. Last year Randy and Samantha moved into a country-club estate in High Ridge, Missouri (suburban St. Louis), complete with a gym, a hot tub, and four decks.

I'd really need to see or hear more evidence before calling that rumor true. If it is, I hope Randy get the help he needs.

ECW was great tonight! The opening match was kickass, even if Stevie was the first man out of the chase, and the rest of the show didn't lose any momentum, even with that dance number thrown in.

Agreed, this guy outs himself as having no credibility as he lies about when the "Legend Killer" character started. It was 04 when he was jobbing out washed up guys like Slaughter and got that big win over Mic Foley.

The problem with the net is people can "report" anything they want and they'll always find someone to buy into it.

Technically, he did lose at Mania this year by failing to win MITB, but as I've always said, nobody keeps track in these multi-man matches. They see it as one guy won, and not the rest lost. Plus Edge took that sick bump with Hardy to allow him to say he beat himself. He's still never lost one on one, so there is that lure there as well.

The fact he got took out before the end of the match gives him an excuse, saying he wasn't in the match when someone else won it. Alternatively, they could use it like Samoa Joe's undefeated streak. Samoa Joe lost a couple of times in that Ultimate X match and things like that, but because he'd never been actually pinned, he stayed 'undefeated'.#
And yeah, as you say, he's never lost one on one.
