    When I was a kid I loved the WWF. I was nuts for that stuff, but as I got older it phased out of me. However this past Friday night on this DOC documentary channel we have on DISH network was a 2 hour long documentary on Bret "Hitman" Hart. Probably one of the best documentaries I've ever seen. I remember Bret from back in the day and was a fan, but after watching this, I'm even more of a fan now. He's a real down to earth good guy. And he spit in Vince McMahon's face! How much better does it get!

    Well smack my ass and call my Judy....

    An episode of Raw with Stone Cold AND The Rock??? Never thought i'd see it again.
    Obviously it would've been cooler if he'd been there in person but it was still great to see him. In a way, i'm kinda glad that he doesn't really come back now. It's not the same Rocky that we loved, not as much in character anymore.

    Great to see them both......but really they are now just "talking heads".....Austin's arm looked like he hasn't seen the inside of a gym lately.

    I did not watch Wrestlemania, but here is a link to Vince/Trump on the Today Show this morning:

  • I haven't watched more than 10 minutes of any wrestling program over the past three months. WWE still blows, although it seems that Smackdown is the better wrestling show out of any of them right now.

    TNA has gone down the crapper ever since Russo came onboard. They focus so much on the ex-WWE/WCW superstars, that the homegrown TNA talent is getting buried. Hell, even Samoa Joe, who should be the flagship of their roster, is getting lost in the shuffle.

    I still read the dirtsheets and spoilers, but nothing has given me any reason to watch any of the shows. Although the bit with Edge winning the title by cashing in his MITB against Undertaker last week on Smackdown was pretty good.

    I simply stopped watching...like you, I keep up with things via PWInsider...other than that...there's no reason to tune in.

    I still watch every now and then, but i check results regulary to see what's going on. I'm pretty sure that if it wasn't for HBK and Taker still being able to bring it in the ring i probably wouldn't watch. So now that Taker's gone for at least 6 months i'm pretty upset.

    Mr Kennedy is good, bu he's the only new-ish guy i even remotely like.

    He tore his tricep. Or was it his bicep? One of the two. So he had to quickly drop the title so he can have surgery, hence the reason why Edge cashed in his MITB so quickly.

    Was a huge wrestling fan in junior high and maybe my first year of high school, wrestling is total shit now.........it got rid of everything appealing about it (crazy/violent gimmick matches, interesting characters, and they made it more family friendly now)

    I haven't even thought about tuning it on for quite some time now. I still check out the wrestling sites from time to time...but not near as often.

    Chalk another one up to the dead wrestlers before their times. Shawn should revert back to her version of his theme in honor.

    according to WWE.com Chris Benoit is dead.....
  • KravenKraven Posts: 829
    Yeah, thats real sad... Why Benoit? He always seemed to be a decent human being and was definitely one of the best pro wrestlers of his time. I can't believe someone would murder him. Its so sad. I haven't watched wrestling in a long time and my friend just called me and told me. I will definitely be tuning in tonight to see his memory honored.
    32 shows and counting...
  • Woah,when was the last time anyone posted here?Well anywho,just wondering what everyone thinks about WWE suspending 10(or more) of its top stars over steriods.

    The list of wrestlers found to be recieving steriods is :

    Charlie Haas - Purchased drugs as late as January 2007.

    * Chavo Guerrero - Purchased drugs as late as May 2006.

    * Edge - Purchased drugs as late as February 2007.

    * Funaki - Purchased Somatropin in March 2006.

    * Gregory Helms - Purchased drugs as late as February 2007.

    * John Morrison - Purchased five different drugs as late as February 2007 .

    * Mr. Kennedy - Purchased three drugs between October 2006 and February 2007, including testosterone, which is an anabolic steroid. Kennedy sternly claimed in a recent interview entitled 'WWE Stopped My Steroid Use' that he completely stopped doing steroids as soon as the WWE Wellness Policy was implemented.

    * Randy Orton - Purchased drugs as late as February 2007.

    * Umaga - Purchased Somatropin as late as December 2006.

    * William Regal - Purchased drugs as late as November 2006.

    Listed As Clients Of Signature Pharmacy But Not On Sports Illustrated's List:
    * Batista
    * Chris Masters
    * King Booker
    * Santino Marella
    * Simon Dean

    No Longer Under WWE Contract Or Deceased:
    * Brian Adams
    * Chris Benoit
    * Eddie Guerrero
    * Johnny Stamboli
    * Sylvain Grenier

    I wonder what the fallout from this will be.
    It may be the devil or it may be the Lord
    But you're gonna have to serve somebody.

  • It better be Jerchico! Someone needs to come make wrestling entertaining before I quit watching. I really enjoy having something from my youth that I still enjoy, but lately its been so craptastic.
