after Vince calls out evolution, they don't even get spilt up smackdown does nicely out of that trade btw is smackdown now just ECW???
Anybody still interested in the Raw tixs? Floor E Row 9 Seats 11 and 12 Want to sell them for what I paid for $56 each ($45 for tix, $11 for all the BS convience fees). If not, going to put them up on Ebay.
Did anyone hear about this?!?! http://www.jimrome.com/home/article/article_3.html A group of flight attendants are suing three professional wrestlers from the WWE for sexual harassment. The air waitress' claim that Ric ‘The Nature Boy’ Flair, Scott ‘The Diamond Stud’ Hall, and Dustin ‘Gold Dust’ Runnels harassed them on a chartered flight back from Europe. The suit clams that ‘The Nature Boy’ wore nothing but a ‘jeweled cape on the flight and that he repeatedly flashed his junk. He also allegedly forced a flight attendant to touch his crotch. ‘The Diamond Stud’ is accused of asking one of the attendants to give him oral sex and then licking another stew. “Gold Dust” is accused of grabbing one of the women and telling her they were going to have sex. You know, I have a hard time with this. I can’t imagine that professional wrestlers would ever be involved in something this unseemly. I mean if there is one thing professional wrestling is all about it, its dignity. Dignity and respect. Just a jeweled cape? I don’t think that is proper airline attire. You at least have to match that jeweled cape with a jeweled blue mask or something. Shocking that these guys would be accused of this. I would have thought they were all sitting there reading the Wall Street Journal. The flight attendants say that they were harassed back in May of 2002, and that they didn’t come forward sooner because they were fearful of losing their jobs. It probably took them that long to get over the emotional trauma of seeing a bunch of sun lamp worshiping, blue mask wearing, baby oil rubbing, steroid shooting freaks wearing nothing but a capes.
What's even wilder is that all this took place on the SAME flight that Mr. Perfect and Brock Lesnar got into a fight with each other, X-Pac cut Michael Hayes' hair off, and Goldust was singing love songs to his ex-wife Terri Runnels over the plane's speaker. "The Flight From Hell"
The show was in Houston? I used to watch Rasseling a lot back in '98 and '99. Haven't seen any since then. I tried to tune in to it a couple of years ago, but it just wasn't the same. I missed to much in the Soap Opera to jump back in.
Was a good show. I was about 7 Rows in front of the announcers, and shouldve been on TV a few times. I was just pissed that Austin wasnt there, but was SUPRISED to see Shelton win although a countout. When the ropes came off, I was one of the many that said "HOLY ****" but they worked it quite well. Wish they did more after the show went off the air. Overall a good show, better than Bad Blood, about the same as the Raw in 2002, but nothing still beats the Smackdown after 9/11.
Good thing I didn't buy tickets, I would've been PISSED at Austin's absence. WTF, it's Houston! Legal issues? Dave- detailed report of what happened after the cameras stopped rolling, please!
Nothing much really. Just everybody getting up SLOWLY and Foley hyping up the PPV, thats it. He just wanted to say to pump up the crowd of "I did NOT come to HOUSTON to get my ass whooped" yadda yadda yadda, buy our PPV, etc...
What's so great about Austin anyway? He rides down on that thing and stunners everyone in sight, then drinks beer. Been the same thing the last several months.
It might be entertaining to me if they actually fought back, not stand there with their finger in their nose while Austin stuns them.
He is great live, works with the crowd regardless face or heel. Plus he is from Victoria, which is just hours from Houston. The fact he is a Texan, he gets much props from us.
Hey Dave, were you in the front row? I coulda sworn the guy in the front row with the Yao jersey looked just like a pic I saw you post with the power dancers.
I've started watching RAW again the last couple weeks and Wrestlemania. Where are all the badasses? The next generation really needs to step up. All I saw was fat Stone Cold, pot belly HHH, receding hairline Rocky Miavia, and a bunch of way over the hills like HBK, Undertaker (who was supposed to come back as the dead man but all he did is throw on a leather trench coat, a gay cowboy hat, and roll his eyes a few times), Mick Foley, a pathetic ugly maskless Kane, and a bunch of guys with bad haircuts. There should be a maximum age limit to get in the ring. It's a joke that Flair and Hogan are still around. Take your vitamins and check into a geriatric clinic, guys. Oh, and the Big Show must physically admire Rakishi's figure bc he's getting close to some manboobs. Dubbleyou tee eff dubbleyou dubblyou eff? Ideally, it'd be a balance of extreme charisma and extreme stunts.
Problem with that though is that all of the old geriatric guys you mentioned and think should retire are the only ones with any charisma. And they've potentially lost Kurt Angle and Steve Austin forever due to neck injuries (not to mention that that's what put out Benoit, Rhyno, and Edge all for a year). Don't expect to see much high risk stuff anymore.
The reason Steve wasn't on RAW this Monday and may not be for a while is because contract negotiations are at a stall.
Naw that wasnt me. I was sitting ring side, the same side as where they walk out to the ring, but the same side as the cameras. I was surprised alot of people did wear they Rockets jerseys to the game.
