WWE Raw & Smackdown Weekly Thread

[member20672]

After Raw ended, the fans were cheering for Triple H as he left, and booing Cena. Cena cut a promo, but was booed. Edge then came out, and we had Edge vs. Cena in a long match, with Cena winning. A LOT of fans left before this ended.


Poor Cena:rofl2:

 

[Superfly]

Even after all this Cena still has a good spot, he must be giving Vince head or something

Despite several erroneous reports circulating on the Internet, WWE.com has not cancelled Byte This! Additionally, the producer of the weekly webcast has not been fired, and the Heart Throbs were not released specifically for their performance on the show. Byte This! is currently on hiatus and is being reconceived as part of a new slate of digital WWE.com content to be unveiled soon. Stay logged on to WWE.com for more information on the new Byte This! as it becomes available.
<b>Note from us:</b> As noted last week (and we still stand by this), WWE management was not happy with Byte This several weeks ago when The Heart Throbs appeared. The show went way off-topic. The Heart Throbs release was a combination of lack of creative ideas and the appearance on the show. The shows producer was nearly let go from his job (may have even been suspended) due to the shows content two weeks ago. WWE.com also never put an archive of the show up on its website. The shows future was in major doubt last week and an agreement must have been made this week. This is WWE's way of covering up the story.



As things stand right now, Stacy Keibler is expected to return to WWE and is still under contract. It's not likely she'll stay with the company very long due to the many offers she'll be getting after Dancing With The Stars. We'll have to wait and see though.

do you know what is going on with batista, will he be on smackdown this week?

Who else thought the Spirit Squad was the easily the stupidest thing when you first saw them? I did. After watching them I couldn't stop laughing. Haha, they're amazing.

Following her rise to stardom as a contestant on ABC's "Dancing With The Stars," Stacy Keibler's future as a member of WWE's roster is being called into question.

Although Stacy Keibler told Larry King Live that she will return to WWE shortly after the conclusion of the ABC competition, few within the industry believe she will remain with WWE over the long-term.

When it became clear that Stacy Keibler has a promising future outside of WWE, the company's website actually took down all references to her presence on the reality show. Keibler's contract expires soon, and there is absolutely no optimism about her agreeing to a renewal.

WWE.com later decided to resume pushing Stacy Keibler's performance on the show for public relations purposes, but the company's outlook on the Diva's future has not changed.

yeah HHH winning was fucking retarded. sorry but that just ticks me off. RVD or the Big Show should of won. but like it's been stated before, I guess you'll get what you want when you married to the bosses daughter.

WWE has released its first promotional poster for WrestleMania 22 and it features John Cena & Booker T in the ring set in front of a large crowd of people in an arena. The poster also has the logo for WrestleMania 22 along with the tagline "Big Time". The poster confirms the start time of the event as 7pm EST time, meaning that WrestleMania will be the usual four hour event.

After further medical consultation, it was decided that due to the spiral crack in her left fibula, Ashley would need surgery. The 2005 RAW Diva Search winner underwent successful surgery to have a plate placed in her leg and is already on the road to recovery. Ashley is out of surgery but will be in a cast for four weeks. After getting out of the cast, she will require four weeks of rehabilitation.

She suffered the spiral fracture of the left fibula while competing in the Diva Battle Royal on RAW Monday night to determine a No. 1 Contender for the Women’s Championship. She was one of the final two Divas eliminated when Candice pushed her and Mickie James over the top rope. Ashley landed awkwardly on her leg causing the break.

Hmmmm.....

The Wrestling Observer Newsletter is reporting that Jackie Gayda is standing by her belief that WWE fired her because she wouldn’t pose for Playboy.

In 2004, WWE wanted both her and Stacy Keibler to pose for Playboy. Both of them said no. That spread turned into the one with Sable and Torrie Wilson. Then WWE did some vengeful booking and put Keibler and Gayda into an angle where they were jealous of Torrie Wilson and Sable for being in the magazine.

Gayda was released about a year later after not getting any major storyline spots.

The decision was made during the last week or so that Dusty Rhodes would not be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame this year. WWE is obviously spotlighting both Bret Hart and Eddie Guerrero in this years induction ceremony. Other names being talked about for this years Hall of Fame include Arn Anderson, Tony Atlas, and Sherri Martel.

Many media outlets are starting to pick up the NBC press release this morning on the return of Saturday Nights Main Event. Zap2It.com has an article featured and I'm sure the story will be picked up by the AP (Associated Press) newswire shortly. Once that happens, you can expect hundreds of different articles all stating basically the same thing.

WWE's second ECW One Night Stand has been added to the Live Events section on WWE.com. Ticket prices are listed at $250 and $100.

WWE.com has posted an interview with Ashley on their website which details her injury and how it happened.

 

[stek1983]

WWE has come to terms on the release of both Chad Wicks and John Tolland who wrestled as “The Dicks.” We wish them the best in all future endeavors.

Is there any pics of these?Did y'all actually it and if so how bad did it look cause I missed Raw

The reason WWE released The Dicks is because creative 'didn't have anything for them', AKA, "We ran out of Dick jokes". It's amazing how acts like The Heart Throbs and The Dicks can be so over in OVW only to be completely destroyed by WWE's creative team.



This week on SmackDown during a six-man tag team match, JBL sustained a serious hand injury. Surgery on that hand will take place first thing Thursday morning. WWE.com will have an update as soon as it becomes available.
This match pitting JBL, Finlay & Randy Orton against Rey Mysterio, Lashley & Chris Benoit can be seen Friday Night (8/7 CT) on UPN.

Despite being released by World Wrestling Entertainment yesterday, the Dicks were backstage at the Ohio Valley Wrestling TV taping last night.

Ken Kennedy was also at the tapings and was backstage tailgating with fans waiting outside.

There is talk in the WWE of doing a Best of WCW Starrcade DVD.

The new t-shirt that John Cena wore Monday night when confronting Triple H is now available on WWEShop.com.

Whether this story is legit or is just a PR stunt we are not sure. The article is posted below. It's really trying to make a story out of nothing but here it is anyways:

From http://www.philstar.com/philstar/News200602240403.htm

Next time, save the fireworks for the wrestling ring.

The Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Centennial Terminal’s international arrival area almost became the scene of a smackdown when the arrival of a group of famous wrestlers from the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) early yesterday morning was marred by an exchange of insults with the group’s security men.

Cooler heads saved Raoul Esperas, a reporter of Manila-based radio station dwIZ, from being attacked by a contingent of famous wrestlers that included John Sena, Benjamin, Nick Foley, Triple H, Val Venis, Eugene, "The Big Show" and "The Edge," who were not pleased by the insults allegedly hurled by the media man against Barrie Knight, their chief security officer.

The arriving wrestlers were apparently accommodating their Filipino fans’ many requests for photographs and autographs while waiting for their checked-in luggage to arrive on the baggage conveyor belt minutes after stepping off Philippine Airlines flight PR 103 from Los Angeles, California at around 5 a.m.

Esperas apparently caught the attention of the wrestlers’ bodyguards when he suddenly climbed up on the baggage conveyor belt machine to take footage of the wrestlers with his video camera. When Knight asked Esperas to climb down from his perch and join his colleagues at an assigned place for the media to take photos, he was repeatedly ignored by Esperas.

This led to an exchange of words, which escalated to insults. When Esperas finished videotaping and stepped off the top of the baggage conveyor belt, the exchange of insults between the bodyguards and the reporter continued.

The wrestlers were about to enter the fray, apparently to reprimand Esperas, when Judith Geronga-Dolot, Manila International Airport Authority (MIAA) Public Affairs Office (PAO) manager, jumped between the fuming wrestlers and the cameraman-radio reporter to cool things down.

For his part, Esperas admitted hurling insults but claimed he was the one provoked by the bodyguards.

"How can I provoke them? I only stand five-foot-five," Esperas commented.

Aside from the raised tempers, the incident also angered passengers and their relatives who had come to the terminal to meet the famous wrestlers. They said the pleasantness and friendliness of the wrestlers’ arrival was marred by the incident.

Dolot said that Uniprom, the local entertainment company that arranged the wrestlers’ visit to Manila, had informed MIAA of their intention to file a complaint against Esperas.

For his part, Esperas said he was ready to face any complaint against him, but insisted it was the wrestlers’ bodyguards who were in the wrong.
