^ yeah its not that common. it seems to be more of a women's wrestling too as Daffney wrestles as both Daffney and Shark Girl in SHIMMER. people have done double gimmicks before, its just not that common at all and it rarely happens at the same exact time for one promotion and for this long.

It'll just be nice to see a TNA title match with TNA originals, ie no MEM.

^ Samoa Joe is in the title match. he's MEM and he's not a TNA original either. but i know what you mean. i was just watching those 3 in their amazing x-division title match from Unbreakable 4 years ago. this match should be just as good, if not better. match of the night should be interesting. i'm thinking the title match or Angle/McGuinness. though Kong/Tara in the cage should be excellent too. sunday cant come fast enough.

if you guys didnt see Turning Point you have to find a way to see the last 2 matches. they were excellent. and Angle/McGuinness is the current front runner for the match of the year. it was everything i thought and said it would be. and the main event was yet anohter classic from those 3. if you're a wrestling fan, those are 2 must watch matches. Angle showed yet again why he is still the best in the world today and McGuinness made WWE look like fools yet again for letting his deal fall apart. he showed his talents in ROH were the real deal and he deserves to be in a main event match on his first live ppv. i'm about to go watch that match again it was so good.

you know i love WWE sometimes. they just love to forget things that have happened to suit their own needs and they try to make fans forget it too. its funny. the breakthrough rumble is hysterical. MVP has had a title match before & Mark Henry has also had a title match before. its so funny sometimes.

Report: ECW Brand To Be Shut Down In Early 2010
Posted on Tuesday, December 1, 2009 at 4:55 pm
The ECW brand will be put to rest once and for all in the near future.
According to a reliable source, WWE officials have had several meetings with the Syfy network about re-branding WWE’s Tuesday night show. Both sides are in agreement that WWE’s version of ECW has been a bust and plans are already being made for a new weekly series. While several ideas have been tossed around (including a magazine-style recap show), right now the most likely option is that WWE will drop the ECW letters and “identity” (whatever that is) and create a new brand that will feature young and-and-coming stars. The Tuesday night timeslot will likely stay the same.
WWE relaunched the ECW brand back in 2006 after the undeniable success of the “Rise and Fall of ECW” DVD set and later the ECW One Night Stand Pay-Per-View events. After ECW was relaunched as a brand, it quickly became apparent that WWE had no intention of keeping the elements that made the original ECW special and turned ECW into a watered-down, generic “C” show. The first week of ECW on Syfy back in 2006 drew around a 2.8. These days a 1.1 is considered a good week.
While it may be bittersweet to see the ECW letters go, ECW has been dead for a long time and a brand featuring primarily young stars sounds like it has potential.
Stay tuned for the latest.
Finally, ECW is getting put out of its misery.

Bret Heart is Returning to Raw or SD i dunno But His Contract Is Going To Last about 4 Months and Starts On The First of January. i dunno bout you guys but i want to see HBK vs Bret Heart at WM26!! where to begin, where to begin? first, its Hart, not Heart. second, he never once appeared on the program Smackdown so he couldnt possibly return to it. and finally, there is no possible way Bret Hart will be wrestling. he retired due to the concussions and stroke he had. he has trouble walking and is in no shape at all to be wrestling. he hasnt wrestled a match in over 10 years. he's going to be an authority figure of some sorts for the short term as he needs some money and he wants to promote his new book. and lastly, the contract he has supposedly signed is for 5 months, not 4. if you are going to post news reports please have them be accurate and get the info from an accurate source. the signing is just WWE's "answer" to TNA's signing of Hogan & pending signing of Flair. this is also old news from last week. the current news is the Flair/TNA situation which could get finalized and announced any day now.

I'm sorry jlavaia, yeah, omgman113 needed to be told about the Bret Hart situation, But everything after that was just you being obnoxious. You don't have to do that you know. Also, its not like you had posted about the Bret Hart/WWE thing, or the Flair/TNA thing for that matter.

Well then, lets get this board rolling a little... (Granted I haven't really watched wrestling in a long time. Keep up with it though.)
Observations...
Wrestling seems to be in an upswing lately. But I think that will soon change.
WWE has been rather boring for the last year and longer. And putting the title on Sheamus is simply stupid. He is nobody that hasn't earned it yet. Edge, The Hardys, Mark Henry, Rey Misterio, they earned and worked their way into the main event/championship scene. Not this guy.
And TNA hiring Bishoff and Hogan, to me, is basically signing its death certificate. Hogan is to much of a spotlight and control whore. Hopefully, though, Bishoff has learned something in the post-WCW years.

He's buddies with Sheamus, and since he's the boss's son-in-law, he pulled some strings. I agree, it's completely stupid. Tonight's Raw was really bad. I knew it from the first five minutes.

So I guess wrestling championships really, really don't mean anything anymore. I'm sorry, putting it on Sheamus, a guy I had never taken any notice of until they put the belt on him, was just stupid. I guess I should atleast be glad that the Undertaker has the OTHER championship. (That just makes me want to go on another rant about how they should just merge them again.)

Mysterio shouldnt be allowed anywhere near any title, especially not the Smackdown title. he didnt earn anything. Eddie Guerrero dying gave him the title. nothing else. as for TNA, Hogan is smart for the publicity. getting Bischoff is very smart. getting Flair is very smart. they know what they're doing right now.

For us that don't live and breath wrestling... The only game in town is WWE and TNA. Did Sheamus come from TNA and bring his popularity with him. No. So that means he had to work his way up in WWE. Lets see if there are any signs of working his way up in WWE. Has he held any other WWE titles besides the Championship. No. Hes barely been there half a year. He hasn't even held a tag championship. What he did before WWE doesn't matter. All his Irish and Indy stuff was just to get him into the door at WWE. To me, the champion should be someone that the company can sell. Someone that atleast some people on the street would have a clue of who they are. Some one worthy of being in a main event. This dude is just not fitting the bill. On on the examples of people I cited being main event/championship material. I wasn't breaking them down into Raw or Smackdown. I was just giving general examples of people that have earned it. They had been with the company for years and worked their way up. Not just handed their championships. And Rey Misterio did earn the championship. And yeah, it may be smart for Hogan. But not for anybody else. I earlier read a very apt quote, "If he was still that popular, Vince would have never let him go.” From all I have read, he's doing nothing but turning TNA into the new WCW. If the original didn't work, what makes you think the imitation will. I can completely see people like Styles, Daniels, Raven, getting buried for Hulk's friends.
