WWE Raw & Smackdown Weekly Thread

Because I didn't like her from day 1. I like divas that have both wrestling skills and good looks, Kristal only had the Latter. Most Divas are only eye Candy, very few cann actually pull off a decent wrestling match

Though, when she started out Trish wasn't much of a wrestler. She did mature, cause she was given a chance.

Now, I'm not saying every piece of eye candy is a potential trish, but I don't remember Kristal being given as much of a chance to learn how to wrestle.

Currently watching RAW, just saw Candice Michelle take a fall from the top rope onto her head in a match with Beth Phoenix. I'm thinking due to reactions from announcers and nature of the fall this was not a planned fall.

looks like she is injured, makes me thing that the Glamazon had something to do with it, by total accident

Hell yeah that was serious.I don't know if anyone else heard it but the ref said "this is it pin her".That was a very ugly fall and definetly not planned fall,my first thought was a concussion,the way she was lying there motionless,then I saw what I hoped was a knot and not a bone sticking out her left shoulder

There was something in the tone of JR and the King's voices. They were ultra serious.

My girlfriend was watching it with me (I just recently got her to enjoy wrestling). I pointed out to her usually when a wrestler is on the top rope and they are knocked down, they land butt first on the turnbuckle. They don't land head first into the ring, as that would be unnecessarily dangerous.

I hope she's alright,even though she did leave on a stretcher atleast she sat up and she was responsive

This should be a prime example of how bad RAW is right now. No one is even talking about any of the matches or anything that happened with any of the story lines. It's all about Candice Michelle falling off the top rope (which I didn't see).

Before Candice's fall, I thought her match was the best one. I actually enjoy the diva matches because it seems like they put more thought and effort in their matches. Also as you see them from match to match you can see their progression. Yes, not all of them can wrestle but you can see the ones that are learning. Like someone said before, Trish couldn't wrestle but she trained hard and we ended up getting (in my opinion) one the best female wrestlers in WWE. Candice is getting there and I hope she makes a speedy recovery. She was rushed to the hospital and is being evaluated for shoulder surgery.

Raw, or just WWE programming in general. I'm not one of the ones who say that the world is coming to the end for them, or that it's the worst ever, or anything like that. Just it hasn't been particularly memorable lately.

Nothing is sticking with me the way some of the antics of 10 years ago did.

Candice news

Candice Michelle was injured after falling from the top rope in her match against Women's Champion Beth Phoenix on Raw. She was rushed to a local medical facility where it was determined she suffered a cracked clavicle.

Further tests are currently being conducted to rule out any other possible injuries. Candice will be out of action 6-8 weeks.

 

[geraldhp42]

I have to wonder, though... in the past year, in no particular order

1. Injuries to HHH, Undertaker, Edge, Bobby Lashley, John Cena, and now Candice, just to name a few
2. Chris Benoit tragedy
3. Wellness policy suspensions causing the "Bastard Child" storyline to be altered
4. Booker T leaving

Has this been one of their worst years in terms of talent problems?

In other news it seems that the "SAVEUS" campaign is all but confirmed as Chris Jericho. As if there was any doubt. Apparantly Stephanie McMahon is pretty upset that it was leaked before the No Mercy ppv and altering the writing staff's contracts so that stuff like this doesn't happen in the future.

They didn't really do a good job of keeping it secret from the get-go. The first thing that popped into my head after seeing it for the first time was Y2J. After watching it in slow-mo, the phrases '2ND_COMING', 'SAVIOUR', etc, all but confirmed it.

At this point I think the WWE is even encouraging the hysteria by showing the spots to arena audiences, eliciting the inevitable Y2J chants.
