vince: mad man genius or murderer of greatness

over the years ihave see the wwe go from childish superhero battles ie. hogan v undertaker,hogan v slaughter, and saturday morningcartoons (does any one else remember that show?) to a low period of crap to austin rock attitude era to what wehave now. far too many oversized over paid and under talented goofs whothrow pnches and never ever loose. such as cena kali umanga batista. vince the man wo made wrestling what it is today has great talent and refuses to showcase it on the stage it deserves. lets go through the list of amazing talent that never got the title, piper, hardy’s, benjamin, carlito, cristian, haas, kennedy, and super crazy. that is a lot of talent tht could make for amazing title matches fueds anda truely great show. not the same sad excuse for a wrestler holding the belt and never loosing unless he is hit by a damn tank. vince show us a new attitude era and bring back what made the wwe so geat sex and violence

Shawn Hickenbottom aka(Michaels) aka HBK

Shawn Hickenbottom AKA Shawn Michaels- HBK, He is 8 time world champion in 3 different Associations. Started pro wrestling at age 18 In Texas Pro Wrestling. Wrestled in mid south and went to American Wrestling Association in 1986 at age 20. Shawn has held world tag belts in 3 Associations on 14 Occasions. Rated one of the best ever!!!Comments

All action, all the time Kurt Angle 8 time World Champion

Kurt Angle, who has stood at the summit of both professional and amateur wrestling, will lead a contingent of grapplers from Total Nonstop Action Wrestling in a show Saturday at the First Arena in Elmira.

Kurt is a great wrestler but he is devoid of any personality. He has terible mic skills. But he did get a gold medal.

Ric Flair to Retire at WrestleMania

Always HBK said in the World Wrestling Entertainment Forum:

Does anyone think “The Nature Boy” Ric Flair’s career will end at WM XXIV? I do, because I think he will go against Shawn Michaels, a man he has great respect for, and whom he gets great respect back from. Shawn announced he was going to be in the Hall of Fame. I think either Shawn or Triple H will induct him into the Hall of Fame, and his induction ceremony is the day before WrestleMania. I don’t want his career to end, but I think that he made up his mind and it is time for him to go. If he does go, no doubt about it, I will have tears in my eyes, I will miss him, he was one of the all time greats, but I will know, he was ready to retire.
Yes, sadly, I do think this is going to happen. Ric Flair’s career will end at WrestleMania 24. There has been lots of talk about it, and I think it is going to end at the mecca of sports entertainment. Ric Flair has had an amazing career, all the way from the Four Horsemen, to Evolution, to his friendship with DX. No matter if he gets retired, he will still be known as one of the greatest wrestlers in history. If Ric Flair does retire, I am sure, nobody will forget him. Ric Flair is not something that you watch a long time, then when he’s gone, you just forget about him, he will be remembered by EVERYONE. No matter if he does retire, he will surely be missed and never forgotten. The “Nature Boy” will be with us forever. WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!.

Road To Wrestlemania

2-19-08 ECW: Road To Wrestlemania

Best Match CM Punk and Ric Flair vs. Elijah Burke and Shelton Benjamin Even though this was a good match, i didnt see the point of it. Everyone knows Flair isnt going to lose on a TV Show! I only saw this as a way to get Flair on ECW, and to get Benjamin and Burke some heel heat>>Which is fine with me.

Worst Match Kofi Kingston vs. Jason Riggs These matches are really growing stale. They need to put him in a real match with real competition.

MVP Flair Thanks for making ECW interesting.

MPP James Curtis I’ve heard talk of him coming to the main roster. This is not a way to start his career!

Best Moment Opening Promo (w/ Flair)

Comments -Kofi is still undefeated…Against jobbers! -I wonder where this Colin storyline is going? -I wonder will stevie richards ever get in the Main Event again. -Its about time Elijah comes back on ECW, but for what reason.. -Short matches from left to right

Best Fued Miz and Morrison vs Tommy and Colin

Quote of The Nite By Elijah, “ECW is my yard”

Rating ~!~!~!~5.5~!~!~!~

Road to Wrestlemania

Raw 2-18-08 Raw: “Road to Wrestlemania”

Best Match Randy Orton v John Cena SGR HHH Wow, would you look at that!

Worst Match Jeff Hardy v Gene Snitsky Release Snitsky! He sucks, and never will be over with the crowd! The climax in his career was his storyline with Kane. But that was a while ago. Congrats Jeff..

MVP HHH He pwns Cena and Orton!

MPP Snitsky We all know why, i just stated it.

Best Moment Steel Cage Match/Moment JBL and Vince vs Hornny and Finlay Id never expect this to happen to Hornny. This storyline is reaching new and better heights.

Comments -Snitsky Sucks. -Wheres Jericho? Dont think i forgot hes suppose to save us, that requires him on every show unless hes injured! -Id rather have Umaga wrestle Jeff then Snitsky. Umaga is improving rapidly. -The Big Show and Mayweather promo was sloppy. I think this is messing up his return Big Time. As soon as the man returns, he gets a “broken nose”. Wow, im excited to see him back.. -This is the first time ive seen Hornny get attacked like that. -Woo Hoo, we have a triple threat main event for WM24.. -Kennedy is still on a Squash Match roll. - Whats up with Jeffs and Kennedys new music? They suck! -I think its obvious HBK vs Ric Flair will happen.

Best Fued HHH vs Cena vs Orton Sadly..As much as i tell people to give Cena credit, his voice is very annoying!

Quote of the Night By Mayweather, “I love pubi Publicity”

Rating ~!~!~!~6~!~!~!~

Austin: WWE not giving Flair sendoff he deserves
