I've heard there's a lot of interest in Beer Money also.

HGopefully they are also interested in the Machine Guns. Chris Sabin and Shelley are amazing and are too good for Impact Wrestling... Hell, everytime they are thrown into a match with Mexican Ameribotch, they get injured... I hate those fucking asshole Mexican America.

His "whinning bitch" gimmick bores me to death.

At least it isn't at a pay-per-view, so we won't have to wait a month to see the same match. I have a good feeling this will be the last one, seeing how it is in the match meant to end feuds.

Considering this is an "event" show where they're going to load it up and Mark Henry is the no. 1 contender I'd imagine this is a case of Orton wins the blow off then Henry jumps him to get that feud rolling. I've also heard local advertising is pegging Cena/Punk 4 for the show also, but that would really just be insane to do on their part.

Everything from Money in the Bank (July 17th) to the present day, RAW wise.

Smackdown isn't too good imo, pretty boring.

ADR is the WWE champion, so I think that we will see Cena vs ADR in the next PPV rather than Cena vs Punk. In addition, Punk is feuding against Kevin Nash.

The Motor City Machine Guns are overrated. I can name 100 tag teams that are better than Shelley & Sabin.

Currently working teams that a mass audience may be familiar with and there's easy to obtain footage to assess them with?

I like wrestling for the same reason I like action movies, and the same reason I love live theatre. Well choreographed fights are entertaining to watch and I love to perform myself, and I also enjoy watching others perform. It is a happy merger of both aspects. Also, as CM Punk believes, it is one of the few original art forms America can claim they created.

So WWE apparently just ended the brand extension. At least as it pertains to TV.

This is an interesting move on their part. WWE in my mind has placed themselves into a position that could mean epic win if done correctly, but if done incorrectly means epic fail for the company and the talents. The proper way to do this in my mind to selectively use this opportunity to use the top most guys on each show for attention while showcasing each shows under-card and up and coming talents. The improper way to do it (and the way they probably will do it) is to take their top guys like Orton, Punk, Cena, and then plaster them and their angles all over the place across both shows, every week, thus undercutting guys and their potential to develop meaningful storylines and break out. I think what you have to do is use a top guy's "home" show to really develop his story arcs and such, then let them go to the opposite show to act as a bit of garnish and help draw some ratings in while not undercutting that shows roster.

Going to be an interesting thing going forward, but considering the imbalanced viewing nature that's existed between the two shows and a lot of the stagnation for some small time now it makes a lot of sense on their part to try loading the shows and it can indeed benefit them if this is done correctly.

So. Is dat some HHH V Punk at NOC I see?

What the hell is he actually going for that couldnt be settled in a main event match on monday? I mean, all he's been doing is making fun of his masculinity and his wife.

Because making the audience pay for it is more important. PPV's also are bigger pay days for the wrestlers, so wrestler logic in kayfabe is the same as reality, you want to have big matches on PPV's because that means you get PPV paydays and those are always bigger. Right now it's a matter of respect. Punk has shown a complete lack of respect for H and with Punk and everything else going on H has been pushed to the edge and beyond.

Way too soon to do this, but I have to think what happened here is they just realized that Nash is not the commodity they thought he was, so they've now pushed him aside in favor of H and trying to pop a buyrate and salvage this angle...WHICH NEVER SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED TO BEGIN WITH!!! This show should have been Punk/Cena 3

He just likes to troll the shit I say... Also, according to the Observer, The Machine Guns were only second to the Kings of Wrestling for tag team of the year. Shelley and Sabin are fucking amazing and it's an insult to wrestling to say that they aren't good... over-rated? Maybe, but there are plenty of other teams that I consider over-rated. Also, do you honestly believe that Mexican Ameribotch can out wrestle the MCMG?

Triple H: "Hey Nash we have this great PPV match set up for you"

Kevin Nash: "Really? oh thanks I really appreciate this"

Triple H: "Oh wait i'm sorry"

Kevin Nash: "what is it?"

Triple H: "I meant, I have a great PPV match for myself"

Look, the reason why I called the Motor City Machine Guns overrated is because the way they wrestle is obnoxious. I'd rate teams like The Midnight Express, The Rock 'N' Roll Express, The Fabulous Freebirds, The Brainbusters, The Road Warriors, The Rockers, and The Hardy Boyz above the MCMG.

Is Punk screaming "I can fly!" when he does his flying clothesline? Now that the match is Triple H vs CM Punk, I am full of hope to see him use the Pepsi Plunge.

Most guys wrestle in an "obnoxious" way these days. The business changed for better or worse.

All of those teams are no longer extant, or are too old to be brought into WWE to revitalize their tag division. That's why I object to the idea of bitching about bringing the MCMG in unless your "100 better teams" are teams that actually still work and WWE could use as assets. I don't think anybody was making an argument that their all time greats or anything, but that they are a good team right now that have experience in a WWE like situation and could be brought in to add to shows.

Can someone tell Triple H that someone can not be both skinny and fat?

That cage match was awesome. Both Christian and Orton pulled off one hell of a match and really deserve some praise for it. Best match I've seen in a while. Mark Henry coming out and beating Orton up was a bit predictable but it makes sense so I really can't fault them there.

I enjoyed the interaction between Punk and HHH. Hearing Punk address what a lot of fans feel was really great and I think they will have a very good match together. How do you get a skinny fat ass?

From what I heard they didn't use Del Rio on Raw or Smackdown due to him needing to renew his work visa. He should be back for next weeks show.

Matt Hardy has posted a video on his youtube page implying that he might be committing suicide in a couple of hours.

Not even being funny here, but whether his intentions are legit or not, this man needs serious help.

It's actually a term body builders use for guys who don't lift but want to be in situations or competitions that body builders are in. It's one of those "inside" references that I think winds up being too inside even for inside type folks.

Man, I'm a little glad I wasn't here for a week; I missed getting potentially banned by a crazy hacker. :P

Aaaaaaanyway, first off, I just want to say: CONGRATULATIONS, EVAN BOURNE! It doesn't matter what the fuck title it is; you've been deserving of a title for far too long. I get the feeling that Air BOOM! will be the next Londrick, and we'll have these guys gracing our presence with those belts for quite a while..........

..........Unless we actually get those two KoW guys, the MCMG or Beer Money. Acquiring one or both of the latter 2 (or any of them, if these Kings of Wrestling are really that good & they're a part of Impact currently) would be the biggest kick to Impact's collective balls that they've ever done. And I would laugh my fucking ass off when it happens. If WWE is actually serious about this, they'd be taking one of the only 2 remaining redeemable qualities Impact has left & throwing it back HARD in their face.

So, the brand barrier has officially been dissolved; this is a very interesting idea, here. It basically ensures that anyone can feud with anyone regardless of which show it is, w/o it seeming awkward. However, like avie said, this could still backfire, and further throw other talents under the bus if they screw it up.

The Punk situation, to me, actually looks potentially good. Obvious keyword there. Regardless of Punk's insults, Trips is slooooooooowlyyyyyyy starting to realize that HE'S being conspired against, rather than being part of one, and that has serious potential to go somewhere.

......I somehow don't see Sin Cara going heel working too well.

Matt (Hardy), what the fuck is wrong with you? I THOUGHT YOU WERE THE STRAIGHT(ER) ONE!?

Good news, I have my Best In The World shirt. I feel awesome. I must go listen to Fugazi now, because I can yo.

Luckily all he suffered was a separated shoulder, that looks like it was a scary scary wreck. Glad he wasn't more seriously injured.

HHH and Cena are high on Evan Bourne, that is why he won the title. Even though it is a secondary title, I can see him getting into the main event picture in two years if he does not fuck up like Jeff Hardy.

Ouch... No, they aren't apart of TNA/Impact Wrestling... Claudio and Hero are not idiots, they work primarily for Ring of Honor, Pro Wrestling Guerrilla, Chikara and various independent promotions. Since they haven't resigned and have only finished off their prior commitments to the shows and venues they were booked for, they are rumoured to be in talks with WWE and looks like they have drawn a contract up. Might see them at either NoC, or at Survivor Series.
