go undertaker!!!

[ArchangelX]

I don't think any match has been able to top the Undertaker vs. Mankind match...holy crap. Dude got choke-slammed through the freakin' top o' the cage! :wtf:

I seriously thought Mick was dead...

[radopps]

isn't that the one where he fell off the cage and on the announcer's table? that was hilarious!

[Realist]

One of my favorite guys is Randy Orton, but if he keeps getting in trouble outside the ring, his career's probably gonna go down the drain. His match tonight with Edge was pretty good; I wish they would put up more good matches like this.

[radopps]

they are beginning to have good matches now!

[808neongurl]

isn't that the one where he fell off the cage and on the announcer's table? that was hilarious!

Thats the one with the thumb tacts and when sometime during the match he cut a hole in his lip.

I still liked the orginal TLC match. :biggrinbounce2:


yes I'm a chick that loves wrestling hahahaha:goku-s:

[radopps]

[808neongurl]

:freakout: so what is your guys take on the whole vince blowning up thing??

[ArchangelX]

Is he still blown up? :confuse2:

[808neongurl]

Yea....they doing this whole bit with FBI investigating and what not...I dunno what this angle brings...I mean you know he aint dead cause it would have been all over the newes.

[Realist]

I'm thinking they can really drag this storyline out for a year or more.

R.I.P. Chris Benoit

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/more/06/25/wrestler.dead.ap/index.html?cnn=yesOh shit that's so messed up. I'm shocked. You'd never think that Chris Benoit would be gone.

[kombi731]

heard about that.. it will be intresting to see what details come forth

[Audiboy808]

Damn I can't believe Chris Benoit is dead. Unreal man he'll be missed.

[808neongurl]

I don't think they are gonna carry on the whole story line of Vince's "death"

There have been a few updates. These are from the wrestling-online.com newletter I subscribe to.

> CHRIS BENOIT, WIFE ARGUED OVER CHILD CARE
- Child care may have been one of the problems in the Benoit family and the
husband and wife argued a lot over the situation according to Jerry
McDevitt, lead attorney for World Wrestling Entertainment. A news story that
appeared on the Associated Press revealed that their seven year old son
Daniel was mentally retarded, suffering from a rare medical condition called
Fragile X Syndrome. "I think it's fair to say that the subject of caring for
that child was part of what made their relationship complicated and
difficult, and it's something they were both constantly struggling with,"
said McDevitt. "We do know it was a source of stress and consternation."
Nancy Benoit wanted her husband to spend more time at home to take care of
his son with her, although she didn't want him to quit professional
wrestling. It's interesting to note that the Associated Press reported today
that ten empty beer cans were located in the house along with an empty
bottle of wine which was found next to Benoit's dead body.



> BENOIT VISITS PERSONAL PHYSICIAN THE DAY OF FIRST MURDER
- On Friday, the day he murdered his wife, Chris Benoit visited his personal
physician Dr. Phil Astin, who was also happened to be a longtime friend. He
said that the former champion didn't give any indications of trouble when he
showed up. "He was in my office on Friday to stop by just to see my staff,"
Astin said. "He certainly didn't show any signs of any distress or rage or
anything." Benoit was being treated for low testosterone levels by Dr. Phil
Astin, a condition that likely originated from previous steroid use. "I'm
still very surprised and shocked, especially with his child Daniel
involved," Astin said. "He worshipped his child."

> POSTING ON WIKIPEDIA A MYSTERY TO EVERYONE
- There's a big mystery involving a Wikipedia entry which listed the death
of Nancy Benoit on Chris Benoit's page on the site hours before the
Sheriff's department arrived on location and identified the three bodies.
The Associated Press ran an article regarding this and lead WWE attorney
Jerry McDevitt said that they had no idea who posted this and it's possible
that Benoit may have sent other test messages to someone else who they are
unaware of. The posting came from someone located in Stamford, CT., - the
home of WWE - although WWE deny posting this. The post was deleted but later
resurfaced and McDevitt said that investigators are looking into the people
behind the posting.

It's really sad that his happened.

And as usual even more sad at the conclusiong people jump to. Like saying they were shooting their son up with human growth hormones to make him huge because he had needle marks on his arms. WTF! Idiots.

That wikipedia things is a bit of a trip! Really gets you thinking?

Hearing everyone talk about how much he loved his kids just makes it harder to see how he could have done that? It makes me think that with the arguing with his wife that there is a lot more to this than we will ever know?

Is it possible that his wife killed their son? And than Chris snapped and killed her and than himself? Or mabye someone else? Never know?

My first thought was where was Kevin Sullivan when this happened? BUt I think he was interviewed in Florida.

And as usual even more sad at the conclusiong people jump to. Like saying they were shooting their son up with human growth hormones to make him huge because he had needle marks on his arms. WTF! Idiots.I know, I saw this shit on Entertainment Tonight & it really pissed me off 'cause they mentioned absolutely nothing about Daniel's Fragile-X.

Is it possible that his wife killed their son? And than Chris snapped and killed her and than himself? Or mabye someone else? Never know?I was hoping that this would be a "best case scenario", but the authorities confirmed the times of death of all 3 people; Nancy died 1st, then Daniel, then Benoit died last.

Hulk Hogan's Miami house (http://homes.realtor.com/search/printablebrochure.aspx?lid=1085473979&sid=8f) from Hogan Knows Best is up for sale. It's only $18,900,000 . . .

[Realist]

Well, the 11th person has been suspended 'cause of this investigation. I don't understand why all of this is coming out now; it's been common knowledge for a long time for those who know about professional wrestling that a lot of these people take steroids & other drugs 'cause of the lifestyle & image they have to portray.

More bad news... Cryme Tyme has just been fired (http://www.wrestling-online.com/news/News_9/Cryme_Tyme_fired_from_WWE_today.shtml) from the company... I swear, WWE's going down the tubes big time.

[radopps]

what...they were a talented tag team...the writers really need to concentrate on the whole roster instead of a few guys!!!

[Realist]

Andre The Giant is getting his own movie. The trailer looks like a fake trailer from Grindhouse, but I'd probably watch it just to see how they portrayed the 80's wrestlers.
