Is it just me but i really really miss seeing Wrestlers like Greg the Hammer Valentine...
He was a no frills Technical Wrestler who could do Iron Man 1 Hour And Last Man standing Matches with Ease as he didnt get warmed up until hed been in the ring for 20mins anyway!!!
I dont think theres ever been a wrestler like Greg since but Rhino is the closest i think??
Why was i thinking of the Hammer you ask?
I was watching old fights and there he was Fighting Verne Gagne or some other Really old guy(he must have been 60 at least)..

Damn it to hell indeed...
I'm afraid TNA - or IMPACT WRESTLING - has gone to the dogs these days dude.
Impact wrestling is in fact little more than a misnomer, as the show has about as much impact as an old woman in one of them spacker trollies bumping into you in the supermarket and sending you staggering slightly into the extra-quilted toilet roll display.
It's all thanks to that unholiest of triumvirates: Hogan-Bischoff-Russo.
Yes, it's fucking shit, thanks for asking, and I would no likelier attend a TNA live show these days as I would attend a mosque and salaam towards Mecca yelling "Praise be to Allah!" witha fucking rag upon my bonce.
There are redeeming features - Bobby Roode is being pushed into the title picture and RVD is once again feuding with Jerry Lynn - but by and very large, it's old hat dude. Same old shit just vommed up and served on a clean plate that's all.
In stark contrast, WWE has upped the quality of it's product immensely in the past three months. Monday Night Raw is now the compelling wrestling show that Impact was a couple of years ago. The characters and storylines have improved immeasurably. So much so that I now find myself fast forwarding much of Impact, just as I once did with Raw.
If I told you Mark Henry was the World Heavyweight Champion, your reaction is likely - and justifiably - to just be "that noise" followed by a wet snigger, when in actual fact, the road to him being crowned has been one I can only liken to Goldberg's rise to dominance in WCW, and has been as convincing and compelling to watch.
TNA can presently blow a donkey ball out it's ass as far as I am concerned. The company will be dead within a year unless them three fuck off and leave the company in the hands of people who actually care about the industry.
Rant? What rant?
TNA? I've shit 'em!

Oh dear Gods in Wallhalla!!! My reaction to the Mark Henry story was..  ?? Really,really,really.................. I still wont be watching and i only watch Aj and Abyss on Tna Impact anyways.... Jarret and the Boys want to pool together and get other backers(i'm thinking Jericho to buy it!!) Hurry and do it as Im really losing faith in Wrasslin thesedays and live only on past glories and Bought vhs tapes from yard sales that i keep picking up for a dollar...(i just got Golbergs rise with loads of his 117-0 rise on it including the title win fight...)Wrestling with shadows cost me 50cents and i got Summerslam 92 for free as i bought other things and the guy threw me a bone(which was nice).... Oh and i also got some ufc dvds for 2 dollar each and they are UfC42 UFC43 and UFC hits Volume1... The old ufc stuff is weird as the fighters still wore shoes and Randy Couture and Dana had hair!!!!! Thank Goodness for UFC and the Ultimate Fighter....... |

I Inadvertently stumbled across Smackdown the other day while i was looking for footie on me free TV channels and f me i see a wrestler the type that me n you always marked for...
His name is Brodus Clay and i may tune in this week just to see him wrassle..
I got extremely bored with all the walk out bullshit from raw is Pish!!
The only saving grace for me was Bookers Commentary,he rules!!!

Brodus is brilliant, in a big lumbering Vader-type way. I mark for him also, as you knew I would lol.
And Yes, Booker is one of the highlights of WWE right now.
His commentary is fresh and funny, and the chemistry with Cole is often hilarious.

I just Had the misfortune to watch Vengeance(it was free and i was bored!)...
What a pile of steaming rehashed dog do!!!
It was as interesting as Watching Paint dry and the climax was tedious beyond belief!
The Big Slow and The worlds most Boring Wrestler Mark Henry's Match was very Ponderous to the point of me only listening to it while i was watching something else....
And when i did watch again i wish i hadn't as the wwe rehashed an ending that was Awesome the first time but this time was downright Second class which is appropriate seeing as what i was watching was most certainly second class...I feel ashamed if this is what people now call the best??
I remember when wrestling matches captivated you and took you on a roller coaster ride of emmotions...this event was totally emotion missing and it had no soul!!Booker made a valiant effort as did the Oirish fella Shamus and Hhhs match was Ok..
But as for the likes of Orton,Rhodes,Slow,Henry,Cena,Del Rio,Etc etc
They should hang they're heads in shame for the debacle that was supposed to be a live event..Even Hacksaw gave more than any of these Fakes ever could!!
Thank goodness i have MMA in my life because if i relied on Wrasslin like i used to then there would be a huge Void in my life!!!
I feel like a judge taking the long walk because i gave wwe a chance and they failed miserably so now i must turn my back on it and walk into the desert but thank god there is an Oasis there called the UFC!!!!

Duuuuuuuud!!!!
I am Loving IMPACT at the Moment...
I am soo Marking for EY Eric Young
and I am also Marking Big time for Crimson...
Dude this guy is bloody Awsome..
He has the It factor and reminds me of a bigger Cristian.
And i really am loving how James Storm is doing buisness at the mo also..
Theres a good feud with Robert Roode going on and its well done..
Oh and theres Gunner who does Flairs and Bishoffs Bidding who has that look also..
I seriously think that Impact has gone up in gear in the last few weeks and it seems like the wrestlers are
happier and backstage there seems to be respect again....(what a coincidence that the cripple Nash left and it got better,who knew?? sic)
Overall,i am loving Impact again and alls well with the world!!!

OH MY GOD DUUUDE.. What happened to Jerry Lawler...He collapsed after Monday night raw and had to be revived and had a minor op to open his valves in his heart? I Guess thats why we used to chant"Burger King,Burger King"... get better soon jerry.. |

Post by MetalBlade on Sept 14, 2012 14:12:28 GMT
Yes I saw it. It was horrible, Cole was in really bad shape and I have new respect for him. He looked devastated as Lawler was in the back being revived. Good news from the Lawler family is that there is no brain damage and they expect a full recovery. Scary times though, and I hope he hangs his boots up now. He was in a match not ten minutes earlier when he tagged with Orton against Ziggler and Punk. Hope he's learned a big lesson that he shouldn't be trying to keep up with these guys at aged 62. Even though his head is still clearly in the game, and he's always been as clean as a whistle, his heart obviously cannae take any more, Cap'n.

I watched some wwe last night and couldnt stop laughing as i watched THE best angle i have seen in years and it involves two of our faves..Kane and Bryan won a bout with a lot of banter between each team member and then when the fight was over Bryan stole the belts and shouted "I am the tag team champions"...at first i thought ok he wants the glory for himself but then kane grabs the belts and shouts "I am the tag team champions"...this went on for a while with both fighters giving each other a hug just so the could smeagol the belts away from the other....
it doesnt sound funny but trust me it had me in f**kin stitches as this was soooo funny and fresh also...
