khilafah Posted April 2, 2008 Posted April 2, 2008 yeah an official wrestling thread would be nice for us Puroresu and ROH fans..
Roostophe Posted April 2, 2008 Posted April 2, 2008 I miss my old taped wrestling videos now, used to have loads. I think I may have to try and get some back at some point, between 1997 and 2003 I think. I've got vids in the loft of WWF PPVs we taped off Sky Sports. Including Royal Rumble 2000, WrestleMania 16 and Backlash 2000*. (*The main event in that one was brilliant.) I'd fish them out if they weren't in the bloody loft!
Roostophe Posted April 2, 2008 Posted April 2, 2008 I think I had every PPV from 99 to 02 I think all mine were from SummerSlam '99 to Royal Rumble '01.
Happenstance Posted April 2, 2008 Posted April 2, 2008 I still miss Stone Cold and The Rock, I dont think its been the same since they left. They have crowd pleasers still but nobody in their levels.
Roostophe Posted April 2, 2008 Posted April 2, 2008 I still miss Stone Cold and The Rock, I dont think its been the same since they left. They have crowd pleasers still but nobody in their levels. Quoted for truth. I'm gutted that The Rock won't wrestle again. But if he still makes sporadic appearances, I'll be happy.
Jonnas Posted April 2, 2008 Posted April 2, 2008 I shall accept you thanks in cold hard cash please : peace: .... or cookies Will this do? On-Topic: Well, I'm optimistic for Backlash, now. Hopefully, we'll finally see Matt Hardy vs. MVP. And yes, Royal Rumble 2000 = Win
Dog-amoto Posted April 2, 2008 Author Posted April 2, 2008 Apparently, The Rock didn't exactly make the best of impressions with his behaviour at the WWE Hall of Fame induction ceremony. http://pwtorch.com/artman2/publish/WWE_News_3/article_25126.shtml

That article also mentions "WWE has given him plenty of reasons to want to distance himself from the company."... what happened between them?

That article also mentions "WWE has given him plenty of reasons to want to distance himself from the company."... what happened between them? No idea, i think as he is a movie star now, like many others they don't like to be associated with where they got their start. Hence why the Rock (or Dwayne Johnsen) probably acted the way he did.
Dog-amoto Posted April 26, 2008 Author Posted April 26, 2008 Just booked my tickets to watch Raw in Manchester in November.
BeerMonkey Posted April 26, 2008 Posted April 26, 2008 i was in work so i couldnt and forgot my bro also forgot not very good seats left so we may buy on ebay closer to date dunno yet. me and bro are going to wrestlemania 25 so doesnt really matter :P

Are they good tickets? I was going to do it, but will probably wait to see where WM26 will be as I don't really fancy going to Houston. For Raw, I am in the third row of the lower tier so it's not a bad view. Could have got floor seats but it was in row S so there'll be 19 or so rows in front of us, all on a level pegging and with people putting signs up etc, the view won't be as good. Was in fourth row from the ring for Insurrextion in 2000 and still our view was quite restricted
Roostophe Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 I'm staying up to watch Backlash tonight. I'm guessing nobody else here is...
soag Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 I'm staying up to watch Backlash tonight. I'm guessing nobody else here is... I would if i had sky sports
Jimbob Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 I'm staying up to watch Backlash tonight. I'm guessing nobody else here is... I would, but have to be up at 6am for work. Good thing about Sky+. Shall be watching it tomorrow though if i get time and if GTA IV doesn't arrive.

Jimbob Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 Backlash Results (Spoilers Ahoy) Triple H def Randy Orton, JBL and John Cena (New WWE Champ) WHC Undertaker def Edge Matt Hardy def MVP (New US Champ) Big Show def The Great Khali ECW Champ Kane def Chavo Guerrero HBK def Batista Beth Phonix wins 12 Diva Battle Royale A few expected results, one unexpected in my opinion.

Which one? All pretty predictable in my book
Jimbob Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 It was the WWE title one, was expecting a certain jean wearing rapping so and so to win it back.
Jonnas Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 It was a nice show. HBK/Batista was pretty disappointing, though. And I really hated the fact that HHH won. I hate Face HHH. I'm hoping he turns, but not likely. Other than that, good show, overall.
Roostophe Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 I'm glad Matt Hardy won the US Title. MVP is a bit rubbish.
