I'm thinking she's in the doghouse there for some reason.

Weird as right now would be a good time for her to turn on and challenge Beth Phoenix.

They could actually build a decent women's division what with Beth, Natalya, Kharma and Tamina.

just finished

the negatives:

no matches 1 on 1 matches vs AJ Styles or Christian

Don West on commentary

it would have been much better had the first disc been the documentry and the 2nd one have matches, instead it's his legit back ground with horrible transitions into the matches

the stupidity of the King of the Mountain match is in this DVD

the positives:

the bulk of the matches are great: 2 vs Sting, 5 vs Samoa Joe, 1 vs Jay Lethal, 1 vs Yuji Nagata

the documentry is very good

it's over 7 hours long

definately worth to $4 I bought it for

it's a real shame that this is the only Kurt Angle DVD ever made

overall I'd give this 5 out of 5 Olympic Gold Medals

[HappyGilmore]

Speaking of Kurt Angle:

I did have an old WWF videocassette tape on Angle, but there was no documentary.  Just a bunch of clips of him being goofy and some matches.

speaking of Kurt Angle it looks like he's trying to make the Olympic wrestling team

Here's the WWE's newest hires:
Claudio Castagnoli...they renamed him Antonio Cesaro
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e6OK83OU2wY

Chris Hero...they've named him Kassius Ohno
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5kCknG7oVo

Together, they competed as The Kings of Wrestling, shown here battling El Generico and Colt Cabana.

Hopefully, since they have a history with CM Punk, and Jericho back in the fold and Daniel Bryan, the WWE will let them, you know, wrestle.

[JaseSF]

Can't say I'm too thrilled with those sad names they've been unfortunately saddled with...hate when WWE changes guys from the identities they've already established. But hopefully if given a chance, they might be able to overcome even that. Didn't WWE sign Tyler Black like a long time ago...what happened to him?

I actually saw CM Punk and John Cena cut local promos for upcoming events up here in Canada. I really hope they bring those back full time.

I'm not going to lie.....I want Santino to win the Smackdown Elimination Chamber

[JaseSF]

I bet he's either taken out before the match or destroyed in it at some point by the Great Khali.

[bob]

honestly, if I wasn't super sick I would get a  last minute nose bleed ticket to the Chamber Sunday taking place 20-30 minutes from where I life soley because Santino will be in the main event

and I can see him making it to the final 2 tapping out to Daniel Bryan

[HappyGilmore]

Amazing Red is pretty good.  I'd always wanted to see him in WWE but, he'd never get a proper push.  The best time for him to have been there was '02-'05 or so, when they had distinct Raw/Smackdown rosters, and Smackdown had the likes of Christian, Ultimo Dragon, Rey Mysterio, Tajiri, Shelton Benjamin, Ultimo Dragon, Jamie Noble and Little Guido.

so here's the results from the worst wrestling show I've ever attended

Well you were right about Santino bob in the Elimination Chamber....he did make it to the end before falling to Daniel Bryan.

I've always been really good with figuring that sort of thing out, hell if you could gamble on prowrestling I'd probably be a millionare by now

[JaseSF]

Great wrestlers become legends. Colorful, entertaining grapplers certainly stand out but most of all those guys who could get you involved either rooting them on or making you want to see them get their head handed to them be it for being an arrogant jerk or just plain a nasty, unlikable fellow. Sometimes the heroes would be driven to stooping to the villain's methods to ultimately deal with them and give them a taste of their own medicine.

These men are legends...

"Superstar" Billy Graham, who inspired guys like Hulk Hogan and Jesse "The Body" Ventura.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzfdaZR6_R4

"The Living Legend" Bruno Sammartino here in action against fellow legend the villainous Freddie Blassie. The newsreel footage hardly took wrestling seriously though as one can tell.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WL3LJMQmKpA

Nick Bockwinkel and Jerry "The King" Lawler, both men very adapt at getting fans to cheer or jeer them.

So many legends...
