    I think thats the one. I thought Paul Heyman as Lesnar's mouthpiece was great too.

    The Hardy's were a strange one. I loved Jeff but could never really get into Matt. I thought they could've done Jeff's title reign much better than they did, his programme with CM Punk was immense.

    yer apparently so. the only thing i really miss are jeffs entrances and his swanton bomb lol. his storylines in general wernt that great, and he was probably better as a tag wrestler.

    also miss dx, when hbk retired the best team ever to grace the wwe retired too.

    Hmm, I'd be very tempted to say New Age Outlaws were better than DX. Very tempted! But I was a sucker for perhaps the best entrance in Wrestling history, so maybe I'm wrong.

    Its a shame but Jeff Hardy & Brock Lesner will never be in WWE again. There are some rumours that Undertaker may face sting at mania but i doubt that now with takers injury.

    I'd be surprised if Sting ever goes to the 'E' He's in his 50s now.

    yer saw the juan cena thing earlier. not sure about it, just hoping they dont bring that into the raw storyline and that it is only for house shows.

    del rio is going to be on the end of a big push up to wrestlemania i reckon. at wrestlemania him to wrestle rey mysterio for the intercontinental title in a best of three falls match i reckon.

    bit of a curveball then; sheamus won KOTR beating morrison in the final. had a silly moment where two of the entrants went out in one match via a double count-out.

    expected del rio to win, but it would be good to sheamus get a push again.

    Cena rehired? They couldn't even make it look slightly realistic, he was 'fired' for about a month.. and every week was on RAW! what the hell...

    That was such a rubbish way to end what could have been a great storyline.

    The last few weeks of RAW has been a marked improvement in my book. Now the elections are done with they'll be able to push the boundaries a little more i.e. Morrison getting nailed on the ladder.

    The Cena angle was a bit predictable but i quite enjoyed it all the same and it helped develop the sub-plot within Nexus well.

    Also Punk on the commentary was an absolute masterstroke. Hey, even Orton started using some new moves!

    It's a great day when Orton alters his moveset.

    saw bits of the TLC match, the morrison sheamus match was exceptional.

    personally felt that some of JoMo's moves of the ropes were very jeff-hardy-esque, and something that the WWE has been missing lately. Absolutely quality when seamus fell through the ladder as well, perhaps the best match of the night.

    the fatal four way between kane, mysterio, edge and del rio was actually a bit of a disappointment. however when del rio went through the table from a pushed over ladder, that spot was absolutely brilliant. del rio can go far in this business, if his current performances and anything to go by.

    the miz vs. orton had the expected ending, with the miz winning twice via virtue of alex riley taking the brunt of ortons moves. i like where this storyline is going. miz vs. JoMo for the title at the royal rumble. i would expect miz to retain, but would be nice to see JoMo get a shot.

    not sure about the ending of the nexus angle with cena and barrett. was a little subdued i felt, but it seems cena is about to start a feud with a returning CM Punk which sounds very promising.

    HHH to return and win the royal rumble?

    Sheamus Vs JoMo was quality i also thought the World Title Match was good aswell as for a firdt time the diva tables match.

    Not sure why the Cena v Barrett was last and hope its not the end of the nexus. I'm now looking for to CM Punk vs Cena.

    I would expect Triple H & Jerricho to return before the rumble what should be interesting. I think it would be great for JoMo to win the belt, but cant see it happening.

    i used to be really into WWE and wrestling in general but the last 12-18 months it has gone down the pan. I usually buy wrestlemania on PPV each year i really dont think i'll bother thsi year.

    I have converted to UFC.

    WWE have just released Kaval:dismay:

    One of the few new (to them) wrestlers that could actually wrestle and one of the crowd favourites.

    More likely he got fed up of having to be beaten every week.

    Will probably turn up in TNA again after the 90 day no compete clause.

    Watched TNA for the first time the other day, on comes Mr Anderson's entrance :biggrin::biggrin:

    He is a laugh that one, my personal favourite. Don't really watch it these days but he is funny.

    He's one of the bright sparks at the moment. TNA is far superior to WWE for Wrestling although the production values are somewhat lacking.

    Dunno what's happening this week though as Bravo closes on the 1st and I can't find a replacement Channel that's covering it.:xmasembarassed:

    TNA is really good at the moment. They need to start pushing the non ex wwe guys.
