I've heard this about maria as well but I'm also hearing that she said she'd like to be the next diva to do playboy! As to wether she has or not is a big question one I'm sure will be answered very soon.

The new years eve raw was very good, hardy got one over ortom but the ortom kicked matt hardy in the head looked very good. Mr Kennedy vs hbk was a great match with a nice finisher from Kennedy! HHH vs flair was a highlight with each hitting their spots but a stupid finish spoiled the entire match and ended the night badly!

extremely awesome. best wrestling news since.....a long time ago.

 

[FlipStar]

Maria in PB is definitely awesome. Just as a quick poll, who would you guys like to see next from the WWE in PB? I was waiting for Trish, Lita or Stacy Kiebler to pose (and still am), but who out of the current crop of Divas do you think should do it next? I'm all for Melina, Mickie James and/or Lillian Garcia.

 

[nekkid]

I would like to see Layla. I love brunettes. Melina would be great to, thank god she got rid of that stupid red in her haid and that lame wave like bangs she had.

 

[phynix]

sorry but am I the only one that really likes beth phoenix! Of course I'm happy that maria has chosen to pose but yeah a lil bit of beth or even lillian would be nice too!

 

[nekkid]

What do you guys think about Jeff HArdy being world champ? Is it even a possibility? Obviously he has proven himself in the ring hundreds of times over but he has ZERO charisma on the mic. I think that he would be one of the few grandslam champs if he did.

I personally would like to see it as Orton is one of the most bland world champs ever so it really isn't much of a stretch at this point. If he won the title I would like to see him feud with Jericho, those would be great matches.

Last question. Do you guys think that Flair will really retire when he loses? I think that it is definately time for him to hang them up, he just looks really really old and its becoming hard to believe that he could beat anyone in a match. However I still think his in-ring work is better than most of the roster so I guess its a judgement call. On one hand, I would like him to win the title one last time at mania as a final tribute and the surrender the title the next night on RAW to go out on top; but on the other hand it might be a bit of a stretch what do you guys think?

 

[phynix]

expect the flair angle to carry on right up to mania but I honestly can't see how they can give to honour of retiring flair to one specific person unless they go gimic and have flair vs vince! I'd like to see him and hbk one more time before he's done!

Yeah the hardy thing is nice and after years of struggle yeah it would be great to see him get the big one! The sad thing is that I wanted orton to be champ so much but now he is champ I prefered him as the legend killer fighting his way to the title!

 

[reiko_sawamura]

I see HHH going heel and going after Flair now, as for Hardy....he will be champ soon. How soon though is anyone's guess.

 

[nekkid]

Here is an interesting article on the pros and cons of the flair retirement angle from the website I frequent...

AHHHH! One of the only bright spots on Smackdown is JBL and the move him to Raw. Only to be topped by his replacement... Wait for it... wait for it... The Coach! AYFKM!?!?

Well, if they are planning on ending the brand split for good then they are on the right track if not I honestly don't understand.

I predict that MVP will go to RAw at the next draft if they have one after Wrestlemania if not sooner. I think Smackdown is officially the AAA farm club, ECW is AA, and OVW is A. I say change the Smackdown title to the hardcore championship and th ecw title to the lightweight championship because those are just as meaningful as their current "World title" status.

Sorry for the rant. I think I feel better now.

 

[phynix]

Yo Nekkid...as sad as it is your rant was spot on things arent right in the world and I really cant see how they can be fixed!

Lets move on to TNA for a second because I took some time today and actually watched impact rather having it as background entertainment. Two things struck me firstly the hard work SOB's that helped build that company are now geting screwed over big time! AJ Styles is now stuck in sad promos about his mental state because of Christian and Angle?? AJ was once the hottest thing going his matches would capture audiences and make peole stand up and cheer their asses off! It is such a damn insult to reduce these young fresh guys like AJ, Petey Williams, Chris Sabin etc into background roles when they should be fighting over belts and have much bigger recognition for the things they've done.

Second thing: Robert Roode, my god this guy is The Franchise - If you just look at him for a second you can se shane douglas clear as day come shinning through almost like a mirror image I do hope that this young character is allowed to grow even more and we see him enter the big leagues very soon.

 

[bobobill]

I agree about Robert Roode, I didn't notice it until I watched Impact this morning. They need to push this guy to the top. When he was in Team Canada I never really saw much in him.

kinda off topic but does anybody play EWR?

 

[nekkid]

I always thoughts AJ was the best in ring performer for the last 3 years. Not the best all around wrestler, simply because he didn't have a persona or charisma. However now that he has aligned with Angle and Christian he nowis the complete package IMO.

I don't think (I hope not anyway) that AJ is out of the title hunt for any extended period of time. I mean he is a tag champ currently. I think a future AJ vs. Christian or AJ vs. ANgle match will be fantastic. I have wanted to see Angle vs. AJ since he came to the company even more than Angle vs. JOe.

I also agree that it definately pays to be roode. Great call on the Shane douglas thing. Hopefully he can move up the ladder in tna I mean, wcw-lite.

 

[reiko_sawamura]

AJ vs Christian will definitely happen, probably at the next PPV, or the one after if they let it fully develop.

As for Roode....I'm not quite sure what to think of this guy. He's decent in the ring, but the character just rubs me the wrong way. I think they can salvage it if they drop Books (I'm just....not a fan of the angle they have between the two right now) and continue to push him as a heel. Also, they should give him a little more mic time, the guy works well with it.

 

[nekkid]

OM F'N God! Did you see that Jeff Hardy cage match last night? That was the craziest thing that I have ever seen in the WWE off the top of a cage. Good God.

Ok, I don't think that this has been discussed in this forum yet. Who is the hottest girl/diva in WWF(E)/WCW history?

I think the hottest girl has to be Stacy Keibler. Her legs and ass are incredible, but she also is one of the few girls in wrestling that doesn't have that "trashy" look. She has a classy look, and got 10 times hotter after dancing with the stars. So my list goes..

1.Stacy Keibler
2. Torrie Wilson
3. Kimberly Page

After that I don't remember anyone else really impressing me that much or maybe standing out from the pack. What do you guys think? (My friends and I had this arguement a few days ago, just curious)

Just from those three choices, Stacy Keibler.

My personal choice is Trish Stratus
