In The Best Wrestling Thread we review shows. But what you are about to read is a review of the whole week!!! The competition was not as fierce for the article as it was for SD!, but BestDamnMVPThere EverWas at least has earned bragging rights. He and Jorl both have 1 article each, so we will see who takes Raw home. But for right now, here is your “weekly” review. BestDamnMVPThere EverWas review: BEST MATCH kennedy&finlay V rey&jeff(RAW) WORST MATCH beth V kelly (RAW)crush match BEST MOMENT marella&austin promo WORST MOMENT majors win battle royal only to get crushed by matt&MVP BEST MOVE rey’s springboard backflip onto finlay BEST COMMENTARY king…funny as always(although i didn’t like the dx segment,king is the best during those sort of comedic promos) MVPs hbk,noble, MPPs don’t really have one BEST SHOW smackdown WORST SHOW ecw

In the best wrestling thread we review shows. The thread was created by yours truly tnasucksyadigg and he handpicks the best review for each show. It just turns out that Jori did the best review for Smackdown, and he has earned his self his own article on “taking on Smackdown”. Smackdown Jori’s Review: Best Match: Mysterio vs Finlay. These guys have good chemistry, and there matches remind me of the Angle/Mysterio matches. Though nowhere near as good, their different styles mix so well, that they can make some in-ring magic, and if given proper booking, a match of the year. Worst Match: Victoria vs Michelle Mccool It’s a womens match, so it’s not much of a surprise. MVP: Finlay/Mysterio. No question. MPP: Michelle. Best Moves/Moments: 1. Mysterios out-of-ring moonsault onto Finlay 2. Finlay catches Mysterio on his shoulders, Mysterio then tries a hurricanranna but Finlay reverses it and powerbombs him onto the turnbuckle. 3. Undertaker choleslams Khali Best Feud: Mysterio vs Finlay no doubt. They had a great match, and it’s shaping up to be one of the best rivalries in the company. Pretty soon it might even be better than the MVP/Hardy rivalry. Summary: It was a pretty good show, but I was a bit dissapointed by the No Holds Barred match. There wasn’t anything No Holds Barred about it. But the Mysterio vs Finlay match more than made up for it. Not much out of the Hardy/MVP storyline, except a short match that didn’t really have a meaning. Why give the Majors a huge title shot if they wouldn’t get the titles? Rating: 7.5

During John Cena’s CNN interview from the documentary Wednesday night, he admitted to using steroids sometime in his life. Very dissapointing, but it’s not that big of a surprise. He is a wrestler after all.

John Cena tapes commercial moments before injury — entire campaign would have been altered.

After being suspended twice in the last few months for violating the WWE Wellness Program, Chris Masters has finally been released from the company.

TNA has been doing a superb job of building up the main event scene, but they’re letting a great opportunity slip through their fingers by not focusing more on the X division.

Lately I have been on a hard mission to save Topix.com. This will Be the best thread thus far. A very interactive thead where you must watch the show to actually look smart. In this thread we will rate shows 1-10, each week: Smackdown, raw, ecw, impact. And then give the best macth, the worst match, the best moment, the mvp of the night,the mpp(most pathetic person),the fueds/rivalries/storylines that are going well, a summary of the night(optional), and the best commentator of the night. Let the judging begin!!!!!!!!!

We need to get our act together! Why are their movie and music and truck preference threads popping up?? Why can’t we talk wrestling??? even old stuff will do! Here is some conversation starers! The Montreal Screw Job The Monday Night Wars Compare ECW to WWE to WCW Wrestlers who are good in ring performers and why they should get pushed. Great matches and why they were great Internet links to funny/awesome/crazy wrestling stories/articals/videos. Lets get on this all-freaking-ready. No more useless or repeated threads. If someone has a wrestling related thread post on it! How many times do I have to sat it? TOPIX DOES NOT MATTER. No one cares about if you are a TOPIX star or not! Its not about topix or music or fords or chevies or how much you want to grope Shawn or even how much you want to kill Cena! it is about wrestling.

What an inspiration. In a way, people like JonnyreV make our town of Topix kind of like a cookie. Mix everything together just right, add a couple of nuts, and you get a great combination with a soft center. And that’s the way the cookie crumbles. I’m Jorl, signing off!

Last night’s episode of Monday Night Raw showed the wrestling world that WWE is desperately going to attempt to boost the ratings up during the month of November

.

Raw has seriously worn out Degeneration X, and yes even stone cold. While the opening segment on Raw was one of the funniest I’ve seen (actually making fun of wrestling being fake, writers going on strike), it sucked up way too much time. Stone Cold is being worn dry, and there were only to real matches that were given time on the card. And the matches(DX vs Orton/Umaga, Hardy and Mysterio vs Finlay and Kennedy) were surprisingly good considering Raw has had seriously bad shows and matches as of late. The segments were great, but there’s more of those than wrestling. Big problem.
