Dragoonson, I think you're talking about the Bella twins Nikki and Brie. And yes, wrestling is fake for the millionth time everyone knows that. Why can't someone have a normal wrestling conversation (or thread for this matter) without one coming up to say that wrestling is fake. I don't know about you guys, but I watch it for the entertainment and the storylines.

I find the story lines stupid and cheesy. :lol:

Why you little...

I find the story lines stupid and cheesy. :lol:

 

Tis the equivalent of a redneck soap opra, and yes the storylines are stupid. As to cheesy, lets not insult an awesome food by mixing it with the WWE.

I think we all know TNA / WWE is fake :-w

 

 

 

ARE YOU [bleep]ING SERIOUS!? :x :x

I watched one of those wrestling things (WWE, Smackdown, I don't know) Monday. I actually laughed out loud a couple times. :lol: It's not the type of thing I'd ever get in to.

dunno if i need a warning or not...o well...racist word involved

search youtube for wwe holy s*** moments theres like 100 of the best wwe moments

WWE is horribly fake and very entertaining and thats all that matters

inb4 [developmentally delayed]s saying "OMFG WRESTLING IS FAKE WATCH UFC INSTED."

 

 

 

But in seriousness, I've watched WWE/F for Eighteen years now and it's the only thing I ever watch on TV these days.

 

Smackdown has taken over RAW as the best show, which is unbelievable. I think ever since Jeff Hardy and Triple H were drafted, RAW have less contenders and now we have another stupid John Cena title reign.

 

 

 

As for the "fake" issue: WWE and TNA (must include it, because it's also televised) is made for entertainment, like most TV shows. It may be scripted, but only the employees know what is going on (unless the rare cases of where former employees leak storylines).

 

 

 

For the wrestling itself, we all know there's some fake moments. But it's innovative, entertaining and the employees know how to sell the moves well. But noone here can deny that they get hurt. We've all seen it before.

 

One prime example of this is Mick Foley, most notably in the famous Hell in the Cell at King of the Ring. He has a tooth in his nose, for heavens sake. If people can tell you that's fake, they need a good slapping.

That settles it, you are my favourite TIF'er.

 

 

 

Back on topic, the next PPV event would be the Royal Rumble. Any WWE fans would like to place their guesses? My guess would be that MVP's loosing streak would end here by winning the RR and then winning the WWE Title at Wrestlemania which would start his main event journey. I believe that guy has talent and charisma.

Wrestling: Where sweaty men wear tights, fight, get close, stuff each others balls in their faces, and show us the stupid things people will do for money...

 

 

 

BTW: Is the undertaker in the rumble...money on him...

I really have no idea where they're going with the Rumble this year. For the past two years they've gone with an already established star, but the four years before that the winner was someone already at the top of the card but who hadn't broken through to the main event yet.

 

 

 

On the SmackDown! side of things I really can't see Jeff Hardy hanging on to the title all the way to the main event of the biggest show of the year. I think that at this point the most likely wrestler to be involved in the SmackDown! main event is Edge. I wouldn't be surprised to see him win it at the Royal Rumble and hang onto it until April. With Edge as the champion, I can think of three potential challengers; Jeff Hardy, Triple H and Undertaker. Undertaker vs. Edge would be a repeat of last year's main event and with Undertaker being from Texas I think it's more likely to see him in some sort of special grudge match, maybe against Shawn Michaels. Jeff Hardy would probably be involved in some sort of situation revolving around whoever attacked him at Survivor Series if it's anyone but Edge. My best guess would be Christian. That leaves Edge vs. Triple H as my guess for SmackDown!'s main event, and neither of them really needs a Royal Rumble win to justify them being there.

 

 

 

Over on RAW I can see John Cena holding on to the title all the way to Wrestlemania, especially with challengers like JBL being set up for him. My guess for three most likely challengers would be Chris Jericho, CM Punk or Randy Orton. Shawn Michaels vs. John Cena has already been done two years ago, so I can't see them doing that again. CM Punk is a former world heavyweight champion and appears to be at the brink of being the very first wrestler to capture all three parts of the RAW triple crown within twelve months. A Royal Rumble win at this point in his career would be huge for him. There is one major problem though, and that's they're both faces at the moment, and I can't see WWE running a face vs. face main event (again, already done two years ago). The odds of them turning either CM Punk or John Cena are small, as I don't think the crowd is willing to boo either of them at the moment no matter how good CM Punk can work as a heel (see his stuff in Ring of Honor)*. John Cena vs. Chris Jericho has been done recently, so I doubt people would pay money to see them at it again so quickly. Randy Orton vs. John Cena hasn't been done in a while, and with his Legacy to help him I could very well see Orton win things while getting the crowd to hate him just a little bit more as he goes on to face Cena at 'Mania. All in all I think he'd be my pick to win the Rumble if I had to put money on it.

 

 

 

*CM Punk in Ring of Honor: http://www.gamespot.com/users/sephy37/v ... D-5bkEszfb

 

 

 

This was during an extended feud he had with Raven in 2003. The guy with him is Colt Cabana, currently in the WWE as Scotty Goldman. Together they formed a tag team called The Second City Saints, with Punk being the serious straight edge guy and Cabana/Goldman being the comedy guy.

Current participants in the Rumble:

 

 

 

Undertaker

 

Triple H

 

Shelton Benjamin

 

Big Show

 

Vladimir Kozlov

Eww...Shelton Benjamin...

 

Hopefully no Edge...I gave up watching when I saw Edge was back...That whole Undertaker and Edge storyline was waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to played out...

 

I hope the undertaker wins (though didn't he win the last one?)

 

I'll probably start watching wrestling by the royal rumble...I've always thought that after summer it becomes a drag...
