    I dont mind the Raw and Smackdown crossovers they just need to keep the crowds small for the show. If they could do it at the Hammerstein or ECW arena in Philadelphia every week it would be great. Its when its taped or live before or after smackdown that it sucks. The crowd deffinately was a major part of the show.

    I concur...that's the element they've been missing. The show was enjoyable because of the crowd.

    Whoa...Jeff Hardy is back with WWE...he just signed a deal.

    Hopefully, they will put Jeff and Matt in ECW.

    Where had he been???? Put them in the ECW and move Test to Smackdown....he's the pits.

    I am glad that they finally let Booker take the title.........another talent buried because of Vince's grudge against the WCW.

    I like Matt Hardy but I never cared for Jeff. But here's an interesting piece from an interview with Jeff on WWE.com.
    WWE.com wrote:
    Bound to his family, Jeff explained that he’s watched his brother, Matt, on television every week since his departure and he is looking forward to once again joining his former partner in the ring and on the road.

    “Two things [Matt and I] have in common more than anything are Pearl Jam and [sports entertainment]. Our creativity when it comes to wrestling is pretty much unparalleled. The things we created – the moves, the new ideas – it just flowed.”

    Christ.....this is the funniest thing I've ever seen. It's the "Heroes of Burke County" wrestling documentary. Even if you don't like wrestling this thing is hilarious. Watch it....

    ANybody see that Angle retired. Probably for his own good. There were rumors that after Eddie's death that Angle's would have been next going the road he was taking.

    Just read that Russo is back in charge of creative in TNA...could be a turning point for them...

    ...or it could be WCW (circa 1999).

    He's a born-again Christian now...some of the racy stuff he did back in the Attitude era wouldn't fly now.

    They need to let Heyman run/write/script ECW.......toss out the WWE rejects {Big Slow, Test, Striker (lame, lame, lame)}, tape in smaller arenas, make all matches "extreme rules"..........the product is beginning to really turn me off.

    I do have TIVO, and I can never remember when TNA is on.........so I never see it.

    I agree with the Heyman idea...it will never happen though. Vince is too much of a control freak. I watched the first few episodes...now I TiVo it and still don't watch it. I stopped watching RAW completely.

    I'm hoping TNA can step up their game...something needs to be done...wrestling is pretty bad lately.

    I'd rather watch UFC or the Ultimate Fighter on Spike.

    I'll admit these aren't the best of times.......Vince thinks that he or his family are what make the wheels spin.......sorry, wrong answer. Too many of the top-flight superstars are moving on from the business, and the ones left are becoming gag lines for the supposed next generation. A generation that is sadly lacking in originality and pop. If Chris Masters, Johnny Nitro and the Spirit Squad are the future of the business..........then it has no future.

    I've stopped watching Raw, ECW and Smackdown completely. Not even setting the TiVO for them anymore. I'll keep reading the reports and spoilers, but it's going to take some consistently good booking for me to get back to watching any sort of WWE programming. McMahons - old. DX - old. Cena - tired gimmick, trying to be a poor man's blend of Stone Cold and the Rock. ECW - worthless, save for CM Punk.

    I hope Russo doesn't screw up TNA too much. Since he and Jarrett are good friends, I really hope that doesn't mean 24 straight months of Jarrett as a main event champion. Who knows? Maybe they'll catch lightning in a bottle this time around and take off creatively. Put the strap on Samoa Joe already.

    Rumor has it that TNA is getting a better timeslot soon. Maybe expanded to two hours even?
