I think that Jimmy Wang Yang has more chance of being released as much as I hope it doesn't happen.

Tatanka - big.
JWY - small.

The Concept of the tourney match they had on TNA was a great concept but horribly flaud.

For those who didnt see it they started with 18 wrestlers and it was like a reverse battle royal

First 7 over competed in a real battle royal, final two wrestled for the number 1 seed in the tourney



What was stupid about this was, U had two wrestlers fighting it out on the apron trying to stop the other from jumpin over the top rope.

Realistically though why wouldnt both wrestlers just look at each other and say "Dude lets both jump over"?

So that made that match a little dumb and a pretty silly when u think about it.


I cant like Lance Hoyt with that Tramp Stamp on his lower back.

When are guys gonna realize that tattoos on your lower back are for CHICKS! 

If you think about wrestling logically, huge holes can be punched through most things 

What I don't get is, the 3 matches next week. The 3 winners have a triple threat next week and the winner faces the winner of the battle royal?

Then the winner of that goes onto Sting?

[slash666]

i think TNA have made it too confusing!

[Evolution]

It was an interesting idea, but it's got so many stips.

I had to re-watch the rules explanation three times, and I still don't full get it.

The reports & rumors on Lita leaving World Wrestling Entertainment are indeed true as she plans on ending her seven-year relationship with the company by the end of November. She doesn't plan on renewing her contract, which is set to expire by the end of next month. Lita will be finishing things up by Survivor Series, give or take a week in either direction.

Lita is leaving to pursue a career in local acting in Atlanta. She has a few plays and potential independent film roles & leads lined up. Most likely, she'll end up doing local theatre in Atlanta. Regarding her future in wrestling, WWE believes that she'll wind up in TNA at some point due to the schedule.

Also, the latest issue of WWE Magazine surprisingly teases her forthcoming departure by saying that "she will possibly (be) moonsaulting her way out of WWE."

Big Show is supposed to be leaving too, after WM23.

[slash666]

sounds like a coup for TNA if they get her, Woman's Division is going way down hill! they need people like China and a few sexy yet fighting able female wrestlers. never knew about Big Show.

[Evolution]

The Big Show is signed until January 2009, so he isn't going anywhere.

[slash666]

and i dont think Vince would let him go that easily and risk having another Angle situation!

Bob Collins, a long-time promoter with WWE who worked on WrestleMania III, has been regularly covering the Detroit area in the build to WrestleMania 23. He has been telling Ford Field officials that the only match WWE has decided upon for the show is Hulk Hogan vs. The Big Show. However, that match is not 100% certain for the time being. Though, if it does end up taking place, it could very well be the final wrestling match for not one star, but both stars.

Interesting.

Yawn.

I dont think that will be a good match, i mean you know hogan's gonna win by body-slamming The Giant....I mean Big Show that is.? But you never know, some matches can suprize, but you know there would be some kind of stupid fued about Big Show saying you've beaten Andre but I'm the real giant of wrestleing or some crap.

I heard a couple rumors that the changing of his name many years ago had something to do with Andre's estate or something saying legally only he can be refered to as "The Giant" because of his wrestling name Andre "The Giant"..and/or also that it was wwe saying he cant use the name....any truth to either of these rumors???

At an ECW show today in Milwaukee, Wis., ECW?s ?Messiah? Paul Heyman declared that Rob Van Dam will, in fact, receive his ECW World Title opportunity at December to Dismember. However, Heyman also made the monumental announcement that RVD?s title match will take place in the first-ever Extreme Elimination Chamber.

RVD earned his chance at the championship last week in a Ladder Match and, as announced on ECW.com earlier this week, Van Dam selected ECW?s next pay-per-view on Dec. 3 as the setting for his title opportunity. However, the stipulations for that contest fall under Heyman?s own judgment.

Thus, ECW World Champion Big Show will defend his gold against five other Extremists within the lethal chamber structure. In addition to the Extreme Giant and RVD, the remaining four participants will be determined through a series of qualifying matches that will take place over the next few weeks ? the first of which can be seen Tuesday night on ECW on Sci Fi.

The only thing more dangerous than the chamber itself will be the throng of hardcore competitors enclosed in its massive walls. Who will qualify for this unprecedented encounter? Exactly what awaits RVD, Big Show and the other Extremists at December to Dismember?

Tune in to ECW on Sci Fi to learn more about this unique and extreme event and be sure to catch December to Dismember on Dec. 3 on pay-per-view.

Um. Wow! I'm surprised Vince McMahon would let ECW use arguably the best gimmick match for years on ECW. Tomorrow night's ECW show features the first qualifier between Sabu and Kevin Thorn.

Also announced is that on November 16th, on TNA's debut primetime iMPACT, Christian Cage will take on Rhino in a Barbed Wire Cage Match.

ECW House Show Results (10/28/06) - Racine, Wisconsin

Report by: James Maxwell, rajah.com reader

Some of this may not be in exact order

CM Punk defeated Mike Knox
The crowd loved Punk. He hit all of his usual moves,
and made Knox tap in the Anaconda Vice.

Little Guido defeated Rodney Mack
After the ref caught Mack going for a pin with his
feet on the ropes, Guido caught Mack in a school boy
roll-up and returned the favor, not getting caught and
getting the win.

Balls Mahoney defeated "The Puerto Rican Nightmare"
Eric Perez
The crowd was behind Balls as always, chanting along
to his punches and everything. There were some "who
the hell are you?" chants for Perez. Mahoney hit his
Nutcracker Suite (Michinoku Driver) for the win.

Paul Heyman came out along with his security. He said
that he had some good news, and some bad news. The bad
news was that the Big Show was injured and wouldn't be
appearing. The crowd actually cheered this. The good
news was that Big Show would be replaced by the only
man Show trusts to be in his place... Paul Heyman. And
Heyman's opponent would be the man who put Big Show
out of action, Rob Van Dam. And the match would be
held under Extreme Rules. During this segment, Heyman
responded to a fan telling him he sucked by saying, "I
do suck...but your brother taught me how."

Stevie Richards defeated Brad Armstrong
The fans weren't too into this match. It was kind of
boring. Stevie ended up winning with some kind of pin
reversal.

Matt Striker came out, ran down the crowd, and then
hosted a bikini contest. The contestants were Amy
(from the 2006 Diva Search), Trinity, and Kelly Kelly.
When Striker was supposed to announce the winner, Rene
Dupree came out, and Striker proclaimed Dupree had the
best body in the ring. Dupree shoved one of the women
down, and Tommy Dreamer ran out. Striker and Dupree
outnumbered Dreamer and had him down, but The Sandman
showed up to make the save. After some verbal
exchanges (and a fan throwing a drink at Dupree and
getting thrown out), this lead to a tag match.

Tommy Dreamer & The Sandman defeated Matt Striker &
Rene Dupree
Dreamer got the pin after hitting the DDT. Dreamer
told the fans that ECW is all about the fans, and then
he proclaimed there would be an old fashion beer bash.
Dreamer and Sandman selected a bunch of fans to join
them, including a 60 year old woman!

Hardcore Holly defeated Test
Test got quite a bit of heat, including chants about
steroids. During Test's entrance, one fan even slapped
him after he got in the fan's face. Don't think the
guy got kicked out though. Either the slap wasn't too
hard or it was a plant. In any event, Holly got the
pin after Test's exposing of a turnbuckle backfired
and he got whipped into it, and Holly rolled him up
for the 3 count.

Sabu defeated Kevin Thorn
The usual stuff from these guys. Sabu hit all his
signature moves, and Thorn hit his rope-assiated Ace
Crusher/Stunner move. Sabu got the submission victory
with a camel clutch. After the match, Heyman's
security guards ran out and beat down Sabu, leading to
Sabu being taken to the back. Then Heyman came out for
the main event.

Main Event:
Rob Van Dam defeated Paul Heyman in an Extreme Rules
match
Before the match, RVD posed for the fans to cheers.
Heyman attemped to do the same, and was met with boos,
much to Heyman's shagrin. As expected, RVD had to
fight Heyman's security. The match mostly saw RVD
eventually fighting off the security on a few
occasions and trying to get to Heyman, only to have to
deal with the security again. Eventually, Sabu ran out
to even the odds. After RVD and Sabu took care of the
security, they beat down Heyman, and RVD hit a
Five-Star Frog Splash on Heyman through a table for
the win.

All in all, a decent show. Justin Roberts said ECW
looked forward to returning to Racine in the near
future (but with ECW house shows being put to an end
after November, so much for that I guess).

[slash666]

concerning the ECW house shows:
WWE officials have announced that as of Dec. 26, SmackDown Superstars and ECW Extremists will be touring together for live events. Officials say that this is a great opportunity for WWE and ECW fans alike to experience the unparalleled action of both brands combined

Sources say that WWE officials were concerned because the attendance at some of the ECW live events hasn?t been as strong as initially projected.

ECW representative Paul Heyman had the following response to these huge changes that will commence the day after Christmas.

?Well, it?s no secret that ECW does not have the resources that are available to RAW and SmackDown,? explained a frank Heyman. ?We?re too early into the relaunch of the brand and you can?t expect ECW to perform at the same level as RAW and SmackDown without the same budget, personnel and man-power.?

He continued, ?Therefore, in an effort to maximize the budget and give our ECW fans the most bang for their buck, we?re going to be combining live events with the SmackDown brand to bring the most star power, the most action-packed and the most main events available in one given night.?

[Evolution]

I read somewhere these 4 Smackdown guys are getting moved to ECW, so maybe you have two new tag teams for E-C-Dub.

Elijah Burke, Sylvester Turkay, The Great Khali and Daivari.

One of them isn't cleared to wrestle for a few months though.....hence more of a bodyguard than tag team role

[slash666]

yea i heard about that, not sure what The Great Khali will be like in ECW
