Because Christian got laid out on Impact to kill him off last night, his contract expires next month, and it's heavily rumored he's going back to WWE....ah yeah...

I wish RVD would come back to the WWE.
He has to be the most awesome fucking guy ever.

shit yea he is! i wish hed stop fucking around with all this non-wrestling shit and either go back to WWF or make the jump to TNA like cactus did. I also wish WWF would either push Umaga and let him win the strap or him go to TNA and massacre Samoa Joe. As much as I like SJ, I like Umaga way better and itd be awesome to see those two wrestle, regardless of who wins.

YOU-MANG-UH is the fucking greatest. Id love to see him come back as an invincible monster like he was in the beginning of his push, or at least let him WIN A FEW FUCKING MATCHES. The guy went from undefeatable to jobber to the stars almost overnight.

Both Kennedy and Umaga got injured about the same time and I think they are getting close to making comebacks. Add Edge into the mix and that woula have some new people to add to the upper card. We've seen Jeff battle Umaga but him going against Kennedy would be good. Also Edge and Jeff could put on some great matches.

Also Helms should be coming back to the ring soon too though I'm sure he'll be stuck in the lower mid-card. His little pop-up videos are on the humorous side so I'm not sure if he will be a face or a heel. It would be nice to see him go after the U.S. Title, though that may be the role Kennedy and Umaga fall into when they return.

It would be cool to see HHH vs. Kennedy. That would rock.

Remember that Edge took Kennedy's MITB slot? I'd like to see them feuding since Kennedy is now a face.
Misssssssssssssssssssssterrrrrrrrrrrrr Kennnnnnnnnnnnnneeeeeeeeedddddddyyyyyyyy yyyyy!!!!!! KENNEEEEEEEDYYYYYYYY!!!!!!

I like the spot he did with regal where he got stiffed while saying his name. MIIIIIISTEEEEEER KEEEENNEEEEEEEEDY! ......KEEEEEEENNE-POW!

Does anyone think that Jeff Hardy looked like Sting tonight?
I hate this "Oh, I am going crazy because I cannot beat H when the title is on the line" angle. Hopefully, Edge will destroy him when he comes back.

He looks more like an emo who has gone a little over the top with his mothers make up.

I like the angle though.
I like it alot.

He is getting wins over taker and trips.
If they do things my way, he will win the title at the ppv.
Cause I like the new angle.

TNA was pretty awesome this week.
A ref kicking ass in a title match, unexpected.
nice.

Have you ever thought about the consequences if Jeff fucks himself up by failing the drug test as the WWE champion. I simply do not trust him anymore and it will be the biggest mistake ever to put the WWE title on his waist.

Yeah, I like HHH a lot but its getting excesive for him to keep having the title. Maybe have someone else have it like festus lol.

Jeff gets fired, WWE goes on as normal.
I don't think it would be a long run, one month maybe two tops.

WWE becomes known for giving a druggie the championship. Loses creditability, and money from sponsors who don't want to support them anymore. They are stuck with an image of that they won't be able to shake and did I forget the media frenzy it would create. Jeff is just too much of a risk, I really wish he wasn't, but he has to pay for his mistakes. Maybe someday down the line he won't, probably a couple of years. I'm sure that is what WWE had in mind when they fired him a couple years ago though.

I think that the only reason why Jeff is going to be added to the title match is because Kozlov is still too green to face HHH one on one in a PPV title bout. There is no doubt in my mind that Jeff will be H's jobbing bitch again.

That's what I'm hoping too. Jeff can't be trusted, the smart, love the business over any one or two performer crowd get that. Jeff Hardy marks will never get that, they just want to see their boy with a belt, even though he's a total fuck up. You can't win this argument, so you just have to hope that WWE is smart enough to only let him get put into matches like this to be the "work horse" and that the idea of him winning in no way enters their mind.

On one hand, I understand each and every single reason as to why Jeff Hardy shouldn't be a WWE Champion at this point in his career, if ever. He is a risky, unreliable fuck-up, and I do wonder if he will ever change. And I do wish he did, since he has the potential (like his brother, in a lesser scale) to be a pretty damn great superstar.

On the other hand, however... I couldn't give less of a flying fuck as to why he shouldn't be a champion, since it doesn't really affect me. Be honest, you guys. Do you guys sponsor or have stocks and shares with WWE in any way? Do you really give a rat's ass if WWE loses credibility or if the media gets a whiff about their junkie champion, and has a field day with it? The answer is, I seriously doubt it. We're still gonna be watching if it happens. The only thing that affects us is the product that they put out every week, because in the end... That is all we really should give a damn about.

So, yeah. I do hope Jeff gets the title. I hope he wins, so wrestling becomes interesting again for a month or two (or even a fucking week, if only to give Hunter another finger for when he counts his title reigns.) That is all I care about anymore. Peace.

The idea that Jeff becoming champion will destroy the company, even if he dies of a cocaine overdose during his reign is crazy.
If anything they could use the publicity.

I ended up missing Sd due to a power outage (fun fun) and just now did I get my internet back. Just read the results and damn. MVP lost again..To Funaki.... I'm starting to really feel bad for the guy. Whatever he did to deserve this must have been bad.

Jeff has gone crazy! And I kinda like it.

It is alright if you don't think Jeff screwing up again while holding the belt is a big deal, but as long as the WWE thiks that (which they do) he won't get it. They care about their image too much. The Benoit is a good example, a bit different I know, but it shows what extremes the company may go to to protect themselves.

Also, I'm really hoping the "MVP is a bitch" angle is bulding up to a really big win over Khali or something. This is ridiculous.

Doesn't affect you? It's barely acceptable to be a wrestling fan anymore, never mind if the WWE champion got canned for doing drugs. Anyway, with falling ratings as it is, a third strike for the champion would fuck ratings up even more, and with how resistant Vince is to change nowadays, they might not recover.
Less ratings means less influence for the WWE, and nobody wants a world in which Vince Russo is writing for the top wrestling company again.
Jeff doesn't deserve the title because he's proved time and time again that he's a fuck up and always will be. Jeff is a typical addict, and just when you think you can trust him again, he fucks up. There are plenty more wrestlers much more deserving of the WWE title who are much more reliable, and Jeff being champ would be an insult to them.

I am really hoping that they start pushing him sooner than later. He is an awesome wrestler and entertainer. What he is receiving right now is totally undeserving.

I am indifferent about the storyline as line as Jeff does not get the title. Hopefully, Vince will not do the unthinkable at survival series.

I think some of you may be a bit too harsh with the Jeff Hardy thing but I agree with the argument that he isn't reliable as a champion due to his past habits and screw ups. I do think that he could be champion in time if he stays out of trouble and clean. However I'd wait at least another year before making that kind of comitment with him holding the title and being one of the company's top performers.

If WWE winds up under enough scrutiny, or killed credibility wise and sponsor wise, it could end the company. Already they're trending downwards, and the last time the company had to answer about it's drug culture (Vince's steroid trial) the company was also trending downwards and nearly went out of business.

So um, yeah I have a problem with anything that could wind up getting wrestling into a situation where it's not on TV anymore and it becomes harder and harder for me to watch it, and harder for performers I enjoy to make a living, or me to watch them. The Jeff Hardy thing is me speaking to the fact that I don't want one asshole to potentially pull a company down, but even if he can't, I don't want him getting the belt because he doesn't deserve it. The idea that you can completely screw up as badly as this guy when there are dudes just as talented on the roster who haven't done anything wrong makes me sick at the injustice of such a thing.

Very true, it is a shame that talented workers get overlooked but some of that has to do with how they are booked more than their work ethic. MVP is a very talented dude who I had thought could have been a main event talent following his kick ass rivalry with Matt Hardy. He's had no wellness policy violations and has been outstanding in the ring. Now he's jobbing to Funaki. It doesn't make any sense. Jeff's popularity must have some factor to it, like it or not.

Oh sure it does, he'd be jobbed into oblivion if it didn't. But the other side of the coin is you can do stupid stuff but if you have the right friends, you still get titles and pushes (hi there William Regal, Triple H's buddy). WWE has to stop with the politics and the crap like that and just be like "you have talent? Ok, lets see what you can do!" sure seems like that's what they were doing in the Attitude era and they could certainly do it now too.

The reason why WWE wrote Ted DiBiase off television is due to him starring in "The Marine 2", WWE's second straight-to-DVD movie.
John Cena will not be part of the movie outside of a possible cameo appearance.
It's unlikely DiBiase will be returning to television anytime soon.

They cast him in a movie? Uh hey WWE, don't take a guy off TV just as they are starting to establish themselves. People aren't going to give a damn about him when he shows back up.

WWE has just released Armando Estrada.

I'd love to see him work as Unmaga's manager. Back when he was managing Umaga, Umaga was an unstoppable beast...

I cry for both Armando and Teddy Jr. At least we'll be able to download the shit for free over the web in DVD quality, am I right?

And how much do you wanna bet it's better than the first one? Not by much, but it's still gonna be better than "it's so bad it's good" like The Marine was?

I was wondering when that would happen. He was good in his roles as Umaga's manager and the ECW GM, but they never really gave him a chance in the ring. He was buff as hell too.

Speaking of ECW, it was ok last night. Not one of their best shows but it was watchable. Boogey Man returns next week and there will be an extreme rules match between Swagger and Dreamer.

-- MMAJunkie.com reports that new UFC Heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar and Randy Couture are among the fighters who are medically suspended by the The Nevada State Athletic Commission (NASC) following UFC 91. Lesnar has been suspended until 12/16 with no contact during training until 12/7 for precautionary reasons. Couture has been suspended 1/15 with no contact until 12/31, also due to precautionary reasons. The NASC has also issued medical suspensions for Josh Hendricks, Tamdan McCrory, Aaron Riley, and Rafael dos Anjos. These suspensions are routine following fights and are not considered disciplinary.

I think this could be good for Dibiase because honestly they weren't really doing much with him or Rhodes. Just making them look like the bitches of Randy Orton and other main eventers. When he gets back he has a shot at being re-established as either a face, or maybe a solid mid-level heel on RAW or another brand. I in no way see this as a bad thing for him and it could actually wind up being very good.
