Sorry man...but those dudes sucked!!! The were cheap Road Warriors (LOD) rip-off's with Kool Aid on their tounges. Speaking of Animal and Hawk, when the fuck are their kids gonna come out and wrestle? You would think they would have popped out some monsterous kids.

I could be wrong, but I think Animal only had a daughter. (Least she's the only LOD kid I've ever seen...and she was surprisingly hot....) Don't recall ever hearing of Hawk havin' kids...

As for all the Jannetty talk....a few comments:

--Angle can't make ANYONE look good. If a guy with no talent's facin' Kurt, you can tell he's got no talent. Especially wrestling a purely technical match, as he & Jannetty did on smackdown.

--Marty IS old...but then, he's no older than Shawn, HHH, Kane, Undertaker, or Angle, he's just not been in the spotlight as much as they have. And let's be honest here...the guy's in MUCH better shape now than EITHER of his prior two WWE stints. The guy's always had the talent...just lacked the character (and self restraint, from the things I've read about the post-rockers backstage stuff with him) to really do much. If they can work a character/feud for him, he should do fine. Though, I think the better place for him would be smackdown...they've got more possibilities & time to work with, in regards to building him a feud. Raw's got too many main event names to work many more feuds in, sadly....

When fully healthy, Kurt Angle could have a five star match with a broom. He made Big show look good and he is a 500 pound sack of crap in the ring (very funny though). Incidently, the latest wrestlemainia skit is the best one they made so far. Sheldon got a good Deniro impression !

That one kicked major ass. The Big Show ones were the best and you gotta love the Batista ones.

I agree with Stingray about Jannetty-- he's got a bland personality
and has always been an okay wrestler. There a good reason he left
when he did. Right now he's cool because of the nostalgia factor (Rockers'
reunion and all) but let's see what happens after that runs its' course.

btw, cracks me up how many of you can't stand Orton around here!!!
Reminds me of the early days of the Rock....

With these crossover matches (Raw vs. Smackdown) going down at Wrestlemania, do you think they should do this more often? Or do you think they should re-draft the rosters, or do away with the 2 brands idea altogether?
Personally, I would AT LEAST like to see a re-shuffle in the rosters. Alot of these fueds have gotten stale and its time to mix things up.

I wouldn't mind seein' a redraft once a year....make a special out of it, take an hour, hour 1/2 of tv time...and do nothing but the draft, mebbe 2 matches, and promos....mix up the rosters, do some stuff on the draft special to lead into the following week's shows, etc...

Rumor has it that they will mix it up a little after Wrestlemania. Who would you like to see switch rosters first? I would like to see Undertaker go to Raw, and Shawn Michaels go to Smackdown. I still want to see Batista vs. Undertaker dammit.

I have a feeling that The Deadman will be gone after WrestleMania.

I think cross overs are good but still keep the split.. I'd hate to see HHH running his mouth for 10 mins on a thursday night aswell as on mondays!!!

There is apparently a new WrestleMania 21 commercial parodying "Gladiator," with Steve Austin playing the role of Russell Crowe.

That would be awesome.

You can count on a draft taking place after WrestleMania. There's a special
Raw/ Smackdown taping taking place the same night at Madison Square
Garden coming shortly after the PPV. i'd expect Jericho, Christian, Matt
Hardy, Guerrero, Benoit, and Orton among others to be switched around.

Taker's on his way out (he's already working a part-time schedule) so
it really doesn't matter where he ends up. Triple H will probably stay
on RAW since it's the better show. 'Course, anything can happen...

BTW -Joe Laurenaitis (aka Road Warrior Animal), the brother of WWE V.P.
of Talent Relations John Laurenaitis, received a tryout as an announcer
at Raw last night. He hasn't done color commentary in the past with
any of the promotions he's been affiliated with, but in doing radio
interviews in the past he is well spoken and articulate.

Lance Storm wrestled his first match in almost a year last night in OVW. Is this a Sign that he will have a match at the ECW PPv? His opponets were Tommy Dreamer and The Dudley Boyz, not sure who storm tagged with.

Is anyone waiting to get a copy of WrestleMania 21 (the video game)? It comes out next month and I can't wait. It looks like it will be the best wrestling game to date. I have this video of a cutscene featuring RVD, Rey Mysterio and a created superstar. It looks fantastic. Sheck it out.

I read an in-deapth review about this (can't remember what magazine it was in, though)...and it sounds fantastic. According to the review, just the reversal during game play alone are practically endless. "You could play the game for a week straight, and then some, and still not see all of them."

ECW PPV Update:

Among talents not currently under WWE contract who
have made it known they have been called by WWE to be part
of ECW One Night Stand are: Axl Rotten, Masato Tanaka,
Justin Credible, Sandman, Tony Mamaluke, Tracy Smothers,
Sabu, and Bill Alfonso.

Tommy Dreamer has been the point-man for most of the calls to
wrestlers, and he even sent an invite through official channels in
TNA that WWE was interested in utilizing Raven, Kid Kash, Shane Douglas,
and Jerry Lynn. TNA is not expected to allow any of those four to take
part in the event.

WWE contracted wrestlers who are expected to be part of the
PPV include Lance Storm, The Dudleyz, Al Snow, Dean Malenko,
Dawn Marie, Lita, Rhyno, Rey Mysterio, Tajiri, Tazz, and
Tommy Dreamer. Paul Heyman, who's been utilized as a
consultant for the project, will almost assuredly have an
on-air role on the show.
