my next three questions. (dramatic music) *bored*
1. Since WWE has most of the week covered with Monday Night Raw, Tuesday Night ECW on Scifi and Friday Night Smackdown being the main things they use if TNA were to move their shows to Friday Night and try to do a ratings war every week with Smackdown would it work or would they get crushed by guys like Edge / Taker / Triple H / Hardy on Smackdown? or would TNA actually stand a chance.
(I chose Smackdown cause ECW is easy as of now to beat in ratings and Raw is too hard for TNA to go up against at the moment.) /imo
2.John Morrison has proved himself that he can become a great single's wrestler when he fought with CM Punk on ECW for the ECW title in 07 and had some memorable matches but his partner, The Miz? A future for him in the wwe or is the tag titles with Morrison the best thing he will get in his career. Thoughts on what you see happening to The Miz once they split up.
3. CZW, just plain and simple coppy of the original 90's ECW or better? your thoughts does CZW give something special and new to the table or is it just ECW numb 2.

Well, i think Sweeney will make the jump in a year or two. I can't see it being 10 years. He could make the jump now. Im not sure if he is contracted to ROH or not. But im sure he will be a big time player somewhere down the line.

I really don't see friday night being a good night for wrestling. If they wanted to steal some wwe fans, they should just go head to head with raw. I can't see TNA really stealing much in the way of viewers on friday night. I just think Monday before raw would be a best time.
Product wise, at the moment, TNA is better. But the wwe could easily turn that around. So i dont think the risk would pay it off. Realistically thursday probably a better slot. The problem they arent gaining any new ground.

Both will likely be top midcard guys. Maybe in 3-5 years they could even be on a main event level, with the proper booking and push. But certainly both men have a good future in front of them. its too bad the tag division is so weak/unimportant to where its illogical to keep teams together. They sort of remind me of a new era dx. (the original dx) So yeah, both guys future look great.
3. CZW, just plain and simple coppy of the original 90's ECW or better? your thoughts does CZW give something special and new to the table or is it just ECW numb 2.
I wouldn't mention CZW in the same breathe as ECW. Look what came out of ECW, and look whats come out of CZW. I can't really trash CZW that much because i dont really watch it, but its certainly the black spot of wrestling. ECW was orignal at the time. Its had great characters with great booking and tons of action. CZW is basically guys doing spots. At least WSX had some big name talent. Its not all bad, i just dont think they bring anything to the table. I think Vince sumed it up when talking abotu ECW transitioning into the mainstream. In any organization, the fans need to care and admire the wrestlers. It just can't be pointless violence. To me, CZW hasn't gotten to that point yet.
I do like their camera work and atmosphere though. I think CZW just lacked direction with their characters. They focused too much on the violence.

At Wrestlemania 25, who do YOU think should win the Money in the Bank ladder match (providing there is one)? Who will be ready to "step up" by then?
Seeing as RAW has no GM at the moment, who would you like to see fill the position?

Well, I've been saying MVP for a while. I think he would be a perfect fit with a MITB briefcase in his hand. Problem is, he's been jobbing out left and right. Those other worthy candidates would be the returning Mr. Kennedy and Matt Hardy. So i can't really see a underdog like Punk winnign again. So if i had to pick one Mr Kennedy again.

I like JBL, thats the logical choice i believe. For a dark horse candidate i thin Ted Dibiase Sr. would be a interest choice. I wouldnt even mind one of the mcmahons. I can't see them screwing this up.

Considering drawing power and ticket sales etc., do you think WWE is playing a dangerous game writing particularly popular stars out of main event matches at the 11th hour? (i.e. Punk and more-so Jeff Hardy)
Q1.What's the deal with that one woman who was holding the "Glamazon In Training Sign on RAW last night?
Q2.What are your thoughts on the current status of Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton teaming up?
Q3.LMAO, Mark Briscoe is hurt again. Thoughts?
Q4.How do you feel about Rhino being the inspirational speaker of the Young Guns against MEM?

What are your opinion for this Match...
i call it Double standard Match...
IN This Match you must win in 2 different ways..
Ways of winning match:
Pinfall
Submission
KO
Count Out
DQ
Climbing a Ladder to reach For Championship (i'll talk about this stip later on)
Now If you beat your oppoent in a Submission for your 1st Victory.. That Mean's you can not use it as a way to earn your 2nd victory..
example:
Vader win by Count-Out Randy Savage, Vader can not beat Randy Savage again by Count out, But if Randy savage is out side of the ring for a extended time The REF can DQ Him.....(savage should be back in ring 45-60 seconds)
Now If your going ask me what if a wrestler wins by DQ firstly, They Can be still DQ for the 2nd Time, as DQ is the only factor will apply to the allow to win twice on..
-----------------------------------------------------
Now the Climbing the ladder to Victory win... This will only apply to Championship matches, But Firstly for it to be actived you must gain a first victory in which means The ladder is discount off the DQ Factor, but once the climbing to gain belt factor happens... (Count Out winner factor is gone, But Pinfall/submission is still actived)...
but once both wrestlers have 1 win on each of there names, the DQ/count out/KO factor are gone and it will be down to climbing the ladder or either (pin or submit)
hopefully i type all the rules out correctly, as i am pretty high at the moment....

Well, from a business perspective, its not that bad of a move. Veterns like HBK, HHH, Cena, Jericho, Undertaker, are proven draws. These guys are legends. CM Punk and Hardy are not legends yet.
I do think it hurt them from a ratings perspective though. Because people get tired of the same 1-2 guys being the main focal point of a show, week in and week out.
So the wwe basically has to please its hardcore fans, and its casual fans. Which i think they do a decent job at. Its starting to look like Hardy is getting that Wrestlemania push, and a Jeff Hardy vs Edge Ladder match at mania would be a nice main event in my book.
Q1.What's the deal with that one woman who was holding the "Glamazon In Training Sign on RAW last night?
I didnt see it, have a pic?
Q2.What are your thoughts on the current status of Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton teaming up?
The more i see these two, its starting to look like they arent joining forces, rather waiting to explode into a fued. Personally im not a fan of cody rhodes. I dont think there is anything special about him, other than his name. Basically being handed wins, based on his name and the power of the priceless team. Im not sure where this is headed. I don't really see them teaming up anymore, but continue there little run ins.
Q3.LMAO, Mark Briscoe is hurt again. Thoughts?
He's normally back after a few shows. I dont think this is that serious. They've about run their course in ROH as a tag team anyways.
Q4.How do you feel about Rhino being the inspirational speaker of the Young Guns against MEM?
Im not a fan of Rhyno. I dont think he should be employed by TNA. As far as him being a motivator, i think its a bad idea. Its not that i hate rhyno that much, its more, along the lines, is that there is better things than ex wwe guys out there. TNA needs some freshness, and thats something rhyno does not provide.

I like it, Kinda like a three stages of hell, but only two, and it can be either way. I think it could add a lot to the match as far as pyschology goes. Someone may get all there wins via pinfall. But when they must KO or submit a opponent, its a different story. Good idea.
Should Vince Russo call it a day?
No, I dont think its fair for Russo to take the blame he takes. He might look at wrestling outside the box, but the guy has some good ideas iwth his bad ideas. The guy pretty much created the Rock and Stone Cold. Many other characters in the attitude era. Before trying to save the titanic in wcw.
As far as TNA goes, i think he's done a great job establishing characters. Because before he got there, the wrestlers didnt have a identity. I think the wrestling quality has gone down a tad, but Jarrett has the final say on everything.

Are you surprised snitsky has been in WWE for this length of TIME???
Do you think it should be wise to put Kozlov on ECW??? (i think it is, I dont think he's ready to main event on Smackdown, but also if HHH suffer a loss to him it could damage HHH.. So i think a Kozlov/hardy feud would be the ideal match for kozlov at armageddon or Royal Rumble)
when kennedy returns what brand would you like him to be on? why?
do you think ryan braddock will amount to anything in WWE?

I know I've asked this before 
o) but this time I'm actually willing to DL stuff.
What would be some good shows/matches to get me into RoH? The more recent the better. So far I've got/about to dl:
Bryan Danielson vs Nigel McGuinness (9/13/2008)
Tyler Black & Jimmy Jacobs vs The Briscoe Boys (9/13/2008)
Battle for Supremacy
Driven
Plenty of other Bryan Danielson matches
Yeah, so what can you reccommend?

Yeah, actually. They dont seem to use him for a while, and think the fans will forget how poorly they've booked him in the past. He still hasn't gotten over in all this time. I would assume the wwe would cut their loses soon.

I'd have to agree with you. Kozlov would be better off, started in ECW. I dont see much in the guy. I probably would have let him go a while ago. SOME people seem to like his squash matches though. Maybe cause he does as battering ram with his head. Anyways, a run in ECW could get a little buzz going for the guy.
when kennedy returns what brand would you like him to be on? why?
Probably SD. He seems better booked on SD than Raw. Raw tends to focus on the Cena's and Batistas. While the guys like kennedy get jobbed out. SO i think he could have a good run on SD.
do you think ryan braddock will amount to anything in WWE?
It doesn't look like it. I do like the like the guy though. He's basically wwe's verison of James Storm. Its too bad SD can't find ANYTHING for him and Colt Cabana. I would assume Ryan Braddock would have no problem finding work elsewhere.
Bonus Question: What do i think about Hurrican Helms Returning??
I don't care. That Hurripop thing is dumb. I can't see making THAT big of an impact once he returns and the buzz is gone.

The easiest thing is to just catch the PPV's in order. If you do, you get a nice mix of action and storylines. They have better shows, but its almost like there is seperate storylines. Its hard to explain, but the PPV's are a condensed verison of ROH. PPV's in order:
Respect is Earned
Driven
Man Up
Undeniable
Rising Above
Take No Prisoners
Respect is Earned II
New Horizons
Driven 08
Rising Above
Show for 2008 ( All these are good)
6th anniversary
Take no prisoners
Supercard of Honor 3
A New Level
Vendetta II
Northern Navigation
Death Before Dishonor 6
Driven 2008
Glory By Honor 7
Rising Above 2008
The New Best of DVDS (Bloodiest Matches, Stars of Honor, Best in the World, Greatest Fueds,) These are all great dvds as well.
As far as classic matches go....
- Danielson vs Roderick Strong (any of them)
- Mark vs Jay Briscoe (Fifth year festival finale)
- ROH vs CZW Cage of Death (Death before dishonor 4)
- Kenta vs Low KI ( Final Battle 2005)
- Danielson vs Kenta ( Glory by Honor 5 night 2, or Driven)
- Briscoes vs Steenerico Ladder War (Man Up)
- Erick Stevens vs Rodderick Strong (Respect is Earned II)
- Aries vs Jacobs ( any)
- Nigel vs Strong ( Without Remorse)
- Nigel vs Samoa Joe ( Fifth year festival liverpool)
- Danielson vs Claudio ( Northen Navigation)
Then any of the big tag matchups are generally really good.

It's been a while now since Adam Pearce starting booking for RoH, how do you think he has been doing so far?
I have been watching a good mix of RoH lately, I have DLed old stuff, not so old stuff and recent stuff. What time period would there be the best matches, 2005, 2006 etc?
What would you think of a James Gibson return to WWE?
If you have seen the results of Impact you will notice there are three new members in the TNA originals, Rhino and both members of Team 3D, do you think putting them with AJ and Joe was a bad choice? why/why not?

He's got his pros and cons. I don't think the live shows will be as good as they were with Gabe. He's kinda making ROH similar to wwe/tna. We really haven't seen him book any great yet, but he's slightly changed the style to be more appealing to a mass audience, supposedly. I think the run in's is the biggest problem with his new style of booking. Its not a tv product, and he is booking it as its one.
Although, from a business perspective, they've made some great business/marketing moves. I think the DVD subscription is a great idea, but the price is way too expensive. The newswire and videowires have been pretty good. Development of the new characters has been good as well. Also posting the posters for future shows, so fans can help promote the show.
So the product itself is suffering a bit, but they've made some good business moves.
I have been watching a good mix of RoH lately, I have DLed old stuff, not so old stuff and recent stuff. What time period would there be the best matches, 2005, 2006 etc?
I like 2006 and newer. I think 06 was probably their best year, and 07 and 08 have been very good years. Lots of people liked the 2004-2005 Joe/Punk days. Those shows were alright, but i lacked the storylines and characters back then. They had the wreslting, but it really came together late 05, having the complete product.
What would you think of a James Gibson return to WWE?
Isn't he in the wwe?
If you have seen the results of Impact you will notice there are three new members in the TNA originals, Rhino and both members of Team 3D, do you think putting them with AJ and Joe was a bad choice? why/why not?
Yes, I think they are the supposed to be a generation next stable, and they are throwing these old veterns in the mix. Its ok if its one in a mentor role, but when you 2-3 guys its a little much in my opinion. I think TNA is already starting to struggle, just a hair in keeping the MEM/Frontline fued going. When you start to see turns that don't make sense, its the beginning of the end. I do really like the MCMG in the middle of this all.
He's got his pros and cons. I don't think the live shows will be as good as they were with Gabe. He's kinda making ROH similar to wwe/tna. We really haven't seen him book any great yet, but he's slightly changed the style to be more appealing to a mass audience, supposedly. I think the run in's is the biggest problem with his new style of booking. Its not a tv product, and he is booking it as its one.
Although, from a business perspective, they've made some great business/marketing moves. I think the DVD subscription is a great idea, but the price is way too expensive.
