Title: WWE Royal Rumble
Post by: 187Proof on January 26, 2004, 08:27:54 AM
What did u guys think of it? Personally, I can't believe that (even though he probably deserves it) Chris Benoit is gonna be headling a Wrestlemania. It just doesn't seem right. Also, when the gongs went off in the middle of the Rumble to signal that the Undertaker was there, that was the shit! What did ya'll think?.......

It ain't fair, Spike Dudley was never eliminated....he should appeal it...Remember Kane beat Spike's ass cuz he thought it was Spike's fault the Undertaker's music went on to distract him....Spike never made it to the ring....  ???

As with wrestling, this event used to be class.  Usually a underdog would win and it would be awesome, now you can easily tell whos going to win the event before he even reaches the ring.  SHIT!

i didnt think benoit would actually win. i figured he would make it close to the end but not win. thats cool that he won, he deserves it. as far as the undertaker gong that was the shit, i got excited thought he was gonna come out, but he might come back just before wrestlemania

He will make his return "No Way Out"....By then his hair should be grown out enough to where he could come back as the "Deadman"....Old school undertaker  8)

Undertaker is coming back way before WrestleManiaXX because they have to built up the feud with Kane.

Benoit is going to Raw to start feuding with HHH and Goldberg will be going to Smackdown! to start feuding with Lesnar after Lesnar came in the Rumble and gave Goldberg a F5 which helped Angle throw Goldberg over the ropes.

Main Event at Wrestle ManinaXX Benoit vs HHH
other matches:
Undertaker vs Kane
Goldberg vs Lesnar
Eddie G vs Angle
Bastia and Flair vs The Dudley Boyz
Legends Battle Royal
Catus Jack vs Randy Orton
The Rock vs John Cena (possibly)
Hollywood Hogan vs Stone Cold (possibly)

Austin's neck is the reason why he retired, but everyone knows him and Hogan don't like eachother and seriouslyno one will notice that Austin has an injury because of how poor Hogan's wrestling is now.

Post by: pinche juan on January 26, 2004, 04:37:51 PM

Actually I could always tell who was gonna win but yes WWE does suck today BUT they are getting better.
but I don't really care anymore because I will always have Ring of Honor ....God bless em ...they are the only company who can have a champion reign for about a year (Samoa Joe) and keep it interesting unlike the HHH reign last year

The thing i've always loved about the Rumble was the way the music plays just before they come out, and back in the day people always used to turn up who hadn't wrestled for years, and you were thinking whose music is that for like the first few notes before they came out, and then you would remember. Haven't watched it for years though.

Chris Benoit vs. HHH is a joke, that's what we're left with after 20 years of great wrestlemanias.  Maybe next year Spike Dudley will defend the championship against Mark Henry.

i dont think its a joke because chris benoit is one of the best wrestlers around. he just doesnt get a big enough push because of his size, i think he deserves it


Title: Re:WWE Royal Rumble
Post by: Trauma-san on January 27, 2004, 07:28:50 PM
Well, he doesn't get a big enough push because he fucking sucks on the Mic.  He has no charisma, all he does is go out and act like an animal in the ring, and rip the shit out of somebody.  

Shawn Michaels is small.  He gets a huge push.  Chris Jericho is small.  He gets a huge push.  It's mic skills, WAYYYYY over ring skills.  Chris Benoit's boring as fuck.

 goldberg sucks on the mic too and in the ring, he only has about three moves

Is it me, or does Raw's World Title not even matter anymore. Though Benoit would bring great credibility and I personally would love to see anyone but Triple H with that title. Now Lesner vs. Goldberg for the Smackdown! WWE title, that's going to be classic, 'cause Lesner can carry a match, and if you go stiff on him like Goldberg likes to do, Lesner will break your neck like Holly... ok... hopefully though no one actually gets hurt, but you get the point. Match of the night I think though will be Eddie Guerrero vs. Kurt Angle, and yes they are fighting because the angle (no pun intended) is that Angle backs up Eddie against his family, eventually gets himself too involved in family business, and Eddie gets all mad and full of rage and stuff, turning either Angle or Eddie heel, because both can go either way, and leading up to a Royal Rumble match. I can't wait until that one happens... Eddie... Eddie... Eddie... Eddie... VIVA LA RAZA

His deal was he had a one of a kind gimmick in WCW that made him a huge star.  The popularity he has now is a hold over from that.

"turning either Angle or Eddie heel, because both can go either way, and leading up to a Royal Rumble match. I can't wait until that one happens... Eddie... Eddie... Eddie... Eddie... VIVA LA RAZA"

No way are they turning Eddie heel because he along with John Cena are the most over faces in WWE. Angle is gonna turn heel on Eddie , Eddie gets the win at WM 20 and he's ready for the main event

Post by: Trauma-san on January 27, 2004, 10:50:50 PM
I liked the LwO, and like the Guerreros, but man, I cannot STAND Konnan.  That motherfucker... I think what I don't like about him, is he's an imposter.  He represents the latino culture on Television, and tries to act like he's all about "La Raza", but he comes off sounding more white than I do.  He uses catchprases from the street, but only 4 months after every white kid in the suburbs has heard it on their latest Jay Z cd.  

but anyways.  I digress.  Eddie's a great wrestler, and has great Mic Skills, he's prob. one of the top 5 wrestlers performing today.

It looks like Angle will be the heel, but who knows with the WWE. This last summer, they turned Eddie heel even though he was the most over face. But I hope Eddie get more title shots after Wrestlemania.

And trauma, I feel you on Konnan. He tried too hard. I mean in WCW he talked about Mexican rules, and his Cuban. Love to him, 'cause at onetime he was the Hulk Hogan of Mexico, but in the U.S. his just a fake wannabe gangsta.

Chris Benoit along with John Cena are the two biggest faces in the compsny so anyone who says Benoit getting a title shot at WrestleManiaXX doesn't know what the helll hey are talking about. Him along with Lesnar are the two best workers in the WWE and that's why he's big with the crowd.


As of right now at WrestleManiaXX it does look like Eddie vs Angle.
