The only good thing about Orton is his finisher.

One of the things I don't like about him at all.

Oh look, it's the Diamond Cutter. They're even saying it comes out of nowhere. Seems like I heard the same things about the same move about 8 years ago.

 

[Jono]

Yeah and Orton doesn't even have Kimberly Page like Page used to.

So true. But i still like it.

Not enough of the Trademark Page Cleavage. (I'm talking about Kimberley here, may I add.)

The thing about the Diamond Cutter though, was that it actually, gasp, came out of nowhere.

top rope to The Giant. I loved that match.

BTW, does anyone else find it hilarious that Teddy Long, the guy who spent about a year on Raw complaining about the white man keeping him down, is now basically Edge and Vickie's slave on SmackDown? One of those laugably politically incorrect things that WWE comes up with from time to time.

EDIT: I'm just watching SmackDown now, and it's making me love MVP even more than I did before. He's on commentary for Matt Hardy's match against Palumbo, and he's doing a perfect job of putting over himself, Hardy and everything else. Everything except Jonathan Coachman, whose commentary continues to get buried by everyone including Michael Cole. When Cole's burying you, you know you're bad. MVP's comments to him were hilarious, though.

Coach: (Butts in on Cole and MVP talking about Hardy)Can I just ask a question here?
MVP: No, you can't. (continues commentary)

tbh i like Cole as a commentator tbh reckon he's better than Ross anyway yet but still The Coach should never have been allowed near a mic in the first place get Foley or someone to do commentary ffs

Yeah that sure was funny...btw Hi everyone I am new to this site...here are my thoughts on the recent events going on...i just don't get the whole edge + vickie thing. It seems like a slap in the face to the guerrero name. But definitely love edge as a heel. And also looking forward to MVP getting his main event status some time soon. Batista has been made to look like a little whiney kid imho...as Shawn Michaels himself said that everyone has moved on after Ric Flair retiring except for Batista. I hope there is some sort of a productive outcome from that feud. To be honest Big show could have been put in a feud against edge instead of khali, while MVP feuds Undertaker (guess i'm asking for too much here ...but i am starting to become a big fan of the WWE as i had stopped watching it for 3 years now and just started again this year...looking forward to the fatal 4way at backlash and i do hope orton retains as he is majorly over as a heel. really loved him punt HHH at WM 24; that was quite unexpected. Anyways hope that the excellent in-ring talent of shelton benjamin and elijah burke also doesn't go unnoticed...well those are my thoughts and l really look forward to Jeff Hardy's return

Dont mind who wins the Fatal Four Way tbh unless its JBL hate him also i forgot to say this after WrestleMania but KANE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

JBL is brilliant. Best heel mic worker in the company after Edge.

Kane's title run is basically a "thank you and goodbye" really. He's getting fat and slow now and his matches have never been five-star affairs. I've always been a big fan of his, but his time has come now I feel. Put someone over with this title reign, and then call it a day.

Going to agree with the second there tbh maybe they will get him to drop the title to someone like Burke or Benjamin?

I'd put large amounts of money on it being Benjamin. Although why Shelton is a heel I'll never know. He was way over as a face about three years ago.

 

[KMan71]

Yes I completely agree with Shelton being the next ideal choice for ECW champion...on another note, I haven't seen Mr. Kennedy in the ring for the past couple of weeks. Would anyone know his whereabouts?

Filming a straight-to-DVD movie for WWE Films. Behind Enemy Lines III. Either that, or he's been literally buried somewhere instead of just figuratively.

Incidentally, TNA are pathetic sometimes. Watching Lockdown ATM, can't believe they booked Road Dogg vs Billy Gunn on a PPV almost ten years after they were interesting. The only reason anyone cares about either of these guys is because they were in DX, yet TNA always tries so hard to distance themselves from WWE for fear of being compared and seen as inferior. There were even guys throwing the DX 'X' in the crowd.

If they're so desperate to crap on everything WWE do, then why push two guys who are only over because they were WWE guys ten years ago? And why have Shark Boy copy a WWE-exclusive gimmick? So many pathetic attempts at running down WWE going around. That's what brought down WCW and ECW in part, so they should be careful.

aah i see...i was going through some of the older posts and found out about 'Kennedy Declares'...time and again Mr. Kennedy proves to the fans that he is an absolute classic. i wonder how kennedy v orton would shape out to be. tbh cena and HHH need to be out of the main event scene for some time...and yes JBL is better suited as a color commentator definitely. sorry i can't comment much on TNA as i just watched my first ever TNA Impact episode last week although i do get what you're trying to say.

I don't talk about TNA much except to complain, TBH. Great matches, ****ty angles and weird gimmicks. TNA in a nutshell.

Kennedy's suffered from a lack of luck and a lack of good decision making recently, let's hope his stupid comments about steroid use don't stop him from getting the push he deserves. Hoping for a feud with Y2J sometime this year, would be gold on the mic.

Speaking of mic work that is gold, this past week with HBK and Batista face to face with Jericho on raw really blew me away. It seemed more of a real life disagreement rather than a work...Michaels was truly emotional and did a great job selling it and seems like Batista is going on a heel turn for the better. And did anyone notice that Santino actually won a match after ages...that was great to see

Yeah, Batista's mic work with Michaels has actually impressed me. HBK will no doubt drag Big Dave to a good match as well. Careful Dave, you're in danger of not being a total waste of space for once.

 

[Agent TBY]

Benjamin's never going to be a good face because he's awful on the mic.

He can just do the chicken**** heel schtick and get over like millions of heels before him. It's a shame, really. He's so good in the ring, but he's never going to get anywhere.
