Well, I guess teaming up with Curryman is out. Curryman was fired last night. Okay by me, it ran it's course, bring back The Fallen Angel.
RUSSO SWERVE ALERT:
Daniels joins the MEM. Tell me that you honestly don't think this is a possibilty.
Daniels is the logical choice to join the Frontline side, because besides AJ and ManKaneByss, he's probably the guy most viewed as a TNA guy... BUT... The problem is... is there ANYONE who doesn't know Curry is Daniels? Him joining EITHER side cheapens the whole thing because if it was THAT important to him, he would have ditched the gimmick and taken a side a long time ago. The second he joins, the whole storyline loses a shitload of credibility, IMO.
So since there is no hope in ever finding logic in a TNA storyline, you have now been reduced to trying to find credibility!?
Holy Fuck is Kozlov bad... Seriously. I guess they're trying to bill him as a mat based wrestler or something. But, and this is probably pretty obvious, when it come to mat based wrestling: My Cat > Kozlov.
Kozlov may be the least talented wrestler I have ever seen...
Rey / Punk was very good, with an awesome sequence leading to the GTS where it looked like Punk legit broke Rey's nose.
Batista / Orton was much, much better than it had any right to be. The guy gets a lot of shit, but Big Dave can be carried to good matches, which Orton did.
HBK cut a good promo on his alliance with JBL... BUT... this is something that should be in RAW, not a PPV. Still... I kind of like where this is going.
IRS sighting = Applause. Santino = Standing O. Goldust/Boogey = Crowd storming the field in celebration.
With the exception of the opener, everyone is on tonight. Even the Diva match was bearable.
This PPV is shitting all over that abortion I watched last week...

Yeah I started watching but I am really tired. SO I will find the results out tomorrow.
Great match and it's good to see Jeff get the strap. Slightly surprised they did it a show like Armageddon, but still... the guy deserves it.
I thought this show was going to be awful, and after watching Kozlov and Matt... I figured it was well on its way. But it was a great show. Best PPV in a while. Main Event was great, Cena vs. Jericho was solid, Punk vs. Rey vs great, and even Orton and Batista had a very good match. Hell... even Finlay and Henry was watchable. Blew Survivor Series out of the water, and I was mentioned before, took a shit on that disaster I watched last week.

I seriously, SERIOUSLY hope that they'll make it be Christian that attacked Jeff Hardy at the hotel.
But what I'm afraid of is that they'll pull a swerve and they'll turn Matt, which is something I DO NOT want to see.
Anways... I'm freakin' thrilled they finally let him have the title. It's been a long time coming. If he screws up this time... then he truly is ignorant.

Was she willing or was she dared?
Or is it a feeling that we can't explain..........Maybe a feeling..........exchanged for pain..........
Is this the answer or is this the clue?
Would she, asked the question..........?
Would she control you?
If it's just a feeling that may soon pass..........It could become the feeling that seems to last.
How could we be different if we didn't even know..........The facts of life upon us..........the facts of life that grow.
Could it be the feeling that we once remembered well-----
Or could it be the feeling.........."You know, exciting mail?"
I can't believe I live here..........each and every day.
Wondering what's next..........especially what to say.
I think it's a feeling of love and jealously..........I feel it is the feeling that takes control of me-----
So, were you nervous or was it a scare?
Together we were willing-----
And forever, I still care.
Yes it is that feeling of joy, a happiness.
That feeling we all wish for..........so please let me possess..........and if you're really out there-----
then I will pray to feel-----
Your love and be your witness..........Thank God! This feeling is real.
That's great & all... but did you buy Chinese Democracy?

I prefer it not be Christian only because I'd rather have him on RAW with Cena, Jericho, Michaels, Punk, Orton, and Rey. A Christian, Tomko, Morrision, and Miz group is a license to print money...
Be curious to see what they would have as Christian's motivation. Realigning with Edge? Or do they make it interesting and have Christian pissed because he felt he was more talented and was a company guy that didn't get the same opportunities that Jeff Hardy was given despite being a bit of a screw up. That might take a little too much thinking on creative's part... so they'll probably say he did it for the people... he did it for The Rock...
I was there live at Armageddon. Jeff got a fucking MONSTER POP when he won. After the match Matt came out and Jeff got a 15 minute standing ovation. Amazing moment.
This HBK/JBL storyline is dumb. HBK is broke? OK. If this is to turn him heel to fight Taker at Mania, so be it.
Anyone see the giant 1997 HBK standup that the camera kept trying to focus off of during HBK's promo? That was me. We had third row on the camera side . They even took my GNR sign due to copyright issues. A WWE worker came out and took it and said Vince appreciates your enthusiam-LOL.
The HBK standup was featured on RAW when they had a freeze frame of JBL and Michaels.
Best part of that whole thing last night was Kelly setting Miz up...
That was awesome.

I'd love for them to carry this out with each week Kelly setting someone different up. Eventually Kane shows up on other brands attacking people because Kelly says she's dating them. Then, they do a crossover on USA network... Kane shows up on Monk and chokeslams the shit out of Monk... He beats the snot out of Bruce Campbell on Burn Notice... He even shows up on a rerun of SVU and strangles Ice T.

The potential is unlimited...
He better begin the streak with the cast of "The Starter Wife!"

Nah, they'll put him on Smackdown where he will be pinned cleanly by HHH in 4 minutes and then he will be placed in a feud with R Truth for 4 months, followed by a brief storyline with Maria as he trains her for her shot at the Diva's Championship.
From there he will be drafted to ECW where he will help Mike Knox defeat Matt Hardy for the ECW Title and then the slow build will be begin towards Wrestlemania where he will challenge Knox for the title, where he will be counted out at the 6 minute mark in the third match on the card.
But I do like your idea of him, Tomko, Miz and Morrison. But it may take the spotlight off of HBK, Cena, Orton, Batista and The H so don't hold your breath. But I'm sure the 4 of them will be allowed to pummel Punk and Kofi every other week.
As noted earlier, WWE has plans to release WWE Legends of WrestleMania, a video game based on legends and alumni who have appeared at WrestleMania in the 1980s and 1990s. It will be released in March 2009 to coincide with WrestleMania XXV.
An updated list of characters for the upcoming Legends of Wrestlemania has been released -- 35 in all. The list of characters are as follows: Hulk Hogan, Andre the Giant, The Rock, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, Undertaker, "Rowdy" Roddy Piper, Shawn Michaels, Ric Flair, Bret "The Hitman" Hart, Jerry "The King" Lawler, Ultimate Warrior, "Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase, Mr. Perfect, Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake, Yokozuna, Haku, Jake "The Snake" Roberts, "Ravishing" Rick Rude, "British Bulldog" Davey Boy Smith, Bobby "The Brain" Heenan, Jim Ross, Sgt. Slaughter, Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat, "Mean" Gene Okerlund, Honky Tonk Man, Earthquake, Iron Sheik, Legion of Doom, "Mouth of the South" Jimmy Hart, Gorilla Monsoon, Mr. Fuji, Tito Santana, Joey Marella (as referee), Virgil and Howard Finkel.
Perhaps the biggest omission from the video is that of "Macho Man" Randy Savage, who competed at eight WrestleMania events in all and left the pay-per-view spectacular with the WWF Championship belt on two occasions. Another huge name that won't be featured in the game is Mick Foley, whose WWE contract expiration coincided with the deadline for characters to be featured in the video game.
It was reported back in September that Vince McMahon made the decision to pull Foley from the video game as a result of their personal fallout. He also made the decision to ban Randy Savage from the video game for reasons unknown.
The October 2008 issue of Power Slam had a note on the two legends' video game omissions in their "This Month In McMahon" column, which details the wacky behind-the-scenes exploits of the McMahons -- more specifically, Vince McMahon's unpredictable behavior. They wrote:
September 3: Mick Foley and his agent announce that Foley has signed with TNA. The rumour backstage is that Triple H's condescending treatment of Foley -- arising, allegedly, from Levesque's insecurity over the instrumental role their 1999-2000 matches played in making him a headliner -- is partly to blame for Foley's decision to leave.
In retaliation, Vince pulls Foley from the upcoming Legends of WrestleMania videogame and, furthermore, orders Randy Savage banned from the game as well -- rekindling decade-old rumours about some too-unpleasant-to-be-named scandal involving the McMahons and Savage in the 1990s.

Can someone please explain to me how this makes any fucking sense? If I read that right, it seems that HHH has a problem with the fact that his feud with Foley made him a star?
What the fuck is that shit?
You don't hear about Orton having a problem with Foley, and it can be argued that his feud with Foley is what catapulted him to main event status.
Ditto for The Rock.
You think Steve Austin secretly resents Bret over the fact that their WM13 match put Austin on the fast track to what he became? I doubt it.
Or how about Batista. HHH put him over 3 fucking times, so I doubt Big Dave has any secret beef with The Game.
Or is this more likely due to the fact that HHH realizes an older star gave him a rub and made him, but he has no intention of doing the same with anybody?
So I may go to some of those NWA tapings this weekend. I went to part of the last ones and was pretty bored... although I got to see Cade & Murdoch and caught Blue Demon Jr's lucha mask. The only really fun part is that it has the old school Memphis/NWA TV tapings feel where there's just a couple rows of seats around ringside in a studio.
