Hmm, i'm not sure that things will get better when H takes over, creative-wise. Isn't Steph in charge of creative? Things may not change until she is willing to step aside lol.

No matter how bad WWE gets, lets face it there won't be much motivation for change unless there is actual competition or a significant drop in atenndences/profits. i don't ever see WWE going out of business

as far as the figs go - the TNA figs do have some good points. The bodies, for example, are more true-to-life, and they are slightly more poseable than JAKKS DA figs. Of course, TNA has nothing that beats the JAKKS Classic line!

Stephanie is slated to be the Linda to HHH's Vince. The lack of competition is hurting because there is no motivation to be the best and really no judge of whats going on. During the Monday night war you couldnt explain away ratings. Most of the times now if there is a low rating its because of basketball or something else. Back during the MNW you could tell if both shows were down. Now its all about excuses.

Great news! The "Jackass" angle has been cancelled say reports from last night. I cant even begin to say how much this improves the outlook for summerslam.

well Cryme Time was fired. I was really beginning to like their act but i guess wwe didnt like their backstage antics. I wonder whats going to happen with supposedly 10 of the top superstars suspended due to buying drugs over the internet. morrison already dropped his belt i wonder who else will get severly de-pushed?

if what i've read about Cryme Tyme's reason for being fired is true, then they deserve it. Shame really, because3 i quite enjoyed them. That SummerSlam skit in particular was funny (although i think Regal had more to do with the hilarity lol). I've read Shad's statement on myspace, and he seems sincere in his regret over his release. I'm glad he's not bitter towards WWE (like so many current members of the TNA roster i do not care to mention), and i'd love to see them back sometime down the line

as for the recent suspensions...i think i'm mad about Regal's the most. He FINALLY had a prominent role and now he's gone and got himself suspended

Kennedy, as well, is a disappointment. I thought for sure he was gonna be named as Vince son (which i don't really want to see happening lol), so i wonder whats gonna happen with that storyline lol

What did you hear? I've only heard about a confrontation between them & Cade/Murdoch?


Did we see this? Randy Orton being a mega biatch to fans again...

what i've read is that Cryme Tyme and Cade/Murdoch didn't really get along, and at the house show where CT got fired, Shad said something to them that they considered a threat i.e. CT were legitimately gonna beat them up in the ring during their match. Murdoch addressed the Raw locker-room, and together with the ref for their match, came up with a plan to rib CT by pulling a 'Bret Hart' on them lol. During the match, JTG was to get knocked out of the ring, and the ref would count, and JTG would get in just before 10. But the ref fast-counted JTG and cost CT the match.

Once CT realised what had happened, the took the ref, gave him their finisher, and then auctioned his belt off to the crowd. None of it was supposed to happen like that, and Vince fired them on the spot for unprofessional behaviour lol. Not sure if its true, but thats the reason i read for their release.

As for Orton, i read about that. I'd like to believe that thats just him staying in character, but there's just something about Randy Orton that makes me think he is really like that away from his character lol

Some thoughts:

1. Jericho is just awesomenow that he is back!

2. Santino is the best character on the show.

3. Hall and Booker on TNA is just sad and pathetic. That show is just show bad. It should be called Total Nonstop Angle.

i'm so glad jericho is back. i've been waiting 2 and a half years to here "Welcome to...RAW IS JEEEEEEEERICHO!!! I didn't like the reaction of King and JR on his return though. JR gets more excited for Austin's once-in-a-couple-of-months returns than he did for Jericho.

Santino is fanatstic - definatel one of the highlights on Raw for me. I would love to see a proper Jericho-Santino feud develop at some point. The promos alone would be awesome (and we had a little taste of it last week)

As for TNA, i can't believe Hall no-showed Turning Point. If it was all legit, then good on Joe for saying what he said. The look on Kevin Nash's face as Joe was speaking was priceless. As far as Booker is concerned, why oh why did they have to put him in a feud with Christian. Christian's obviously gonna lose it. The guy went undefeated for 2 yrs and now he's lost at the last three PPVs. Whatsupwithat? TNA still has some high points for me though: Christian, Roode, AJ and Tomko are the main reasons i keep watching.

And just some more thoughts after this week's RAW: how great was it to see the APA back in business? I was surprised to see JBL hit that swinging neckbreaker, given his back problems. Maybe he's gearing up for an in-ring return?

And it appears that Hogan will be returning to RAW next week. Guess niow that he's getting divorced he needs some more money.

I ahvent been extremely excited about any of the matches but their are a few they may be pretty good. The Flair/Michaels match seems to top everyones list but Im skeptical that the two can pull out a above average match with Flairs current wrestling ability. The Big Show/Mayweather match should be a fun attraction. Im most wondering about the battle royale for the ecw belt and whos going to get the shot at Chavo on the PPV. My money is on Tommy Dreamer. Im expecting a good event that has a lot of potential.
