I want them to , do you think that they are gonna be available at any stores?

[leper73]

I don't know. From what I hear, though, all the proceeds will go to Eddie's family.

 

On a lighter note, Nunzio is once again the cruiserweight champ, he defeated Juvi at a house show in Rome.

 

Also, nominations are now open for wrestlecrap's Gooker Award, given annually to the worst gimmick or angle of the year. Voting will start December 2nd, so get your nominations in to RD Reynolds now, at [email protected] The nominations I am definitely going to suggest are the Boogeyman, JR's colon surgery, and Warrior's "Queering Doesn't Make the World Work" speech. I'm torn as to whether or not to nominate the Mexicools; they pretty much dropped everything from that gimmick except the lawnmowers, and they are mega-over. Out of respect for Eddie, it looks like the Dominic angle will be immune.

[TheReaper]

in the second and fourth pictures you can really see benoit swlling up as well as kurt angle

[gnad.1992]

OMG O_O

R.I.P Eddie

[Wolfwood]

Man, I think it really kicked in for when I saw Benoit cry. You know, just, jesus, wow. Just the way he went too, it is a real blow and shame. Basically, speachless.

[Smashdamit]

An emotional SD last night..even more than RAW..won't say more now other than this:

 

Please pay special attention to Mr McMahon's comments about Eddie and tell me what you think....

[Smashdamit]

>Nick 'Eugene' Dinsmore was rushed to the hospital last night in Manchester.

 

He has since been released from the hospital, sent home and suspended indefinitely. WWE.com will have more details as they become available.<

 

Hmmm..wonder what he was up to..drinking and driving followed by a wreck?

 

WWE really went out on a limb having a guy named Nunzio winning in Rome

[noodles]

An emotional SD last night..even more than RAW..won't say more now other than this:

 

Please pay special attention to Mr McMahon's comments about Eddie and tell me what you think....

What did he say? I haven't been able to watch RAW or Smackdown in a while.

[Smashdamit]

Well,its not what he said but how he said it.

 

It seemed orchestrated.There was a point where he "choked up" that did not seem sincere at all.

 

I noticed on RAW how Steph could cry like a baby but not shed a tear.

 

Probably just me but I gotta a sense that if your name is McMahon,you do not feel emotions like other people

[ThaddeusMcKlown]

I may be a little late in doing so, but here's my tribute, copied straight from my post in the CFM thread.

 

 

R.I.P. EDDIE GUERERO

 

And, in his honor:

'I feel your sorrow,

And appreciate your prayers.

When you are lonely

Know that I am nearby for you.

While I�m no longer on earth, I�m in a new place-

A place too beautiful to describe.

It�s a place of peace, comfort, and love,

A place so warm and wonderful

It defies imagination.

While you are sad now,

You will grow in strength.

You can turn to me in prayer-please do.

You can continue to love me.

I will watch over you-though for now

You will not be able to see or touch me.

You are still on earth

And meant to be there for now.

You will grieve; it isn�t easy.

Death is always sad,

But believe that someday soon we�ll be reunited

To be all that we can be

With God and our loved ones.

Amen.'

 

Also,

'Don't Grieve for me for now I'm free,

I'm following the path God has laid you see.

I took His hand when I heard Him call,

I turned my back and left it all.

I could not stay another day,

To laugh, to love, to work, to play.

Tasks left undone must stay that way,

I found that peace at the close of day.

If my parting has left a void,

Then fill it with remembered joys.

A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss,

Oh, yes, these things I too will miss.

Be not burdened with times of sorrow.

I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.

My life's been full, I've savored much,

Good friends, good times, a loved one's touch.

Perhaps my time seemed all too brief,

Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.

Lift up your hearts and peace to thee,

God wanted me now, He set me free.'

-This was from a CZW tribute to another fallen wrestler, known as Chri$ Ca$h.

 

 

Let's all have a moment of sorrow in his honor.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Honestly, I'mreally, really saddened. I haven't watched wrestling since the summer, but for the last 7 years, wrestling has been an integral part of my life. I watched it. I breathed it. I lived it. I joined feds. I bought tshirts. I watched the shows, I bought the DVDs and tapes. I played the games. I read the spoilers. I was a fan. Lately, WWE has faded out of my life. It's not gone entirely, it's just, I can't find the time to watch it. I wish I could. But I can't. And now, I'll never get to see Eddie perform again. As some of you may know, I had the pleasure of seeing Eddie live 2 years ago. It was magical. Eddie may not have been my favorite, but damn, the man was good. And I can respect that. I can truely say that his soul rests in peace. Right now, he's running the ropes in heaven. I bet, as you read this, he's teaching Jesus how to frog splash.

 

 

 

He's in a better place now. Here's to the fallen. RIP Eddie Guerrero, 1967-2005.

Funny Facts .......I suffer from 14,18,23,29,34,37(well not exactly),

[Smashdamit]

here is lowdown on 'Eugene"

 

>Last week in Manchester, England, Nick “Eugene” Dinsmore was immediately rushed to a nearby hospital after he was found passed out in a hotel lobby.

 

After regaining consciousness, Dinsmore admitting to taking Somas and other prescription medication. As a result of the incident, he was sent home from the WWE International tour and suspended indefinitely.

 

Since returning home, Dinsmore has agreed to seek professional help. He flew to an undisclosed location, where he will spend the next two weeks being evaluated at a drug rehabilitation facility.<

 

So he is a junkie...great.This must have been the last straw as McMahon has announced a new drug policy for the WWE

 

 

[Werleman1]

I just read the spoilers for tonights Raw , and all i have to say is that tonoghts Raw is going to be very interpromotional and wild.

[Smashdamit]

btw-although my parents play no part it would be cool to have theme music accompany me when I enter a store for example

[Smashdamit]

btw-although my parents play no part it would be cool to have theme music accompany me when I enter a store for example

[leper73]

The ones on that list that have fit me at one point or another are 6, 7, 14, 18, 21, 27, and 33. Also, I now introduce myself as MISTEEEEER Graham.................Graham.

 

WWE's drug policy is a step in the right direction. It's also about time Vince allows the wrestlers to unionize, and provide for a brief off-season for their bodies to recover from the wear and tear of traveling and bumping.

[Phatgordo13]

Angle and Shelton had a great match. That ending pissed me off. What a great match that couldve been. Cena cut a pretty good promo. The Boggeyman....that sh*ts funny.

[Smashdamit]

Ya Cena's bit was decent.Looks like he has the comedy bug after being on MAD TV.Good for him.Snitski and Tomko...lol...its a kink...its not my fault

 

I don't know about that Boogeyman.Its rather silly so far.Some guy that likes to hide in closets and whatnot while slobbering all over himself.....sure wish they'd hurry up and put him in the ring.

 

A rather elaborate way of explaining Batista's injury(notice you didn't actually see him slammed on the car) but it works I guess.

 

Who will replace him?....Kennedy?...someone gonna be brought in?...will it be Batista?....is he hurt or what?

 

Glad they are giving Daivari a job.I always liked the crooked ref angle

 

 

Edited November 22, 2005 by Smashdamit

[leper73]

Daivari reminds me of Danny Davis, the evil ref turned wrestler from the 80's. But what was with Kurt giving that promo about him being denied his rights as an American when they were in ENGLAND? About the only time an Angle promo hasn't made sense.

 

I'm guessing Benoit replaces Batista on that team. He would probably want to do it to honor Eddie. Hardy and Kennedy are the next most possible.

 

I so wanted to see Lashley hit the Dominator on Show. I bet he could've done it too.

 

Tomko and Snitsky were actually good for a comedic moment last night. But seeing them in the ring together, blah.

[Werleman1]

Chris will not be in the SS match because he will be involved in a best of 7 match at SS with Booker T for the U.S. Title.

[Smashdamit]

well,it looks like Batista is gonna go.We'll see what ,if anything,happens on SD.

 

Saw Christian in TNA the other day....

[Soul Survivor]

Hey isn't TNA the copy of wcw but its at late night.

[Smashdamit]

Yes and no

 

Total Nonstop Action is a wanna be competitor to the WWE.

 

They use a 6 corner ring...other than that its the same ole rasslin with wrestlers fired by the WWE

 

Its pure crap most often.If Christian is gonna keep wrestling he should have stayed in the WWE.

 

Maybe its a big fish/small pond thing.

 

 

[leper73]

I can run through TNA's problems again and again:

 

-the company revolves around Jeff Jarrett who is way past his prime. At least HHH is in the best shape he's ever been in.

 

-they compete out of the same place in Orlando every week, that isn't even a wrestling arena.

 

-this isn't exactly their fault, but as WWE copyrights names and gimmicks, we get weak versions of everyone's best characters.

 

-most guys can't wrestle to save their lives, and even the high flyers just go from highspot to highspot without any sort of selling or ring psychology. Impressive moves, but they can't tell a good story in the ring.

 

Christian, though, gave a typical classic promo on Monty Brown. I hate that guy (Monty), and seeing Christian ridicule his Serengetti promos absolutely ruled. If ROH gets some national exposure, they can be the best viable alternative to WWE.

 

That's a stupid idea, a best of 7 series. And if they are going to drag it out, the major ppv should have the last match, not the first. Luckily, with Booker and Benoit, you at least know the matches are going to be good.

[Werleman1]

I think the series will and at RR or Wrestlemania

[Sniper.]

TNA needs to get a better time slot aswell. Saturdays at 11:00 pm EST isnt very good for some people. They should try and get a weekly time slot like Wednesday or something and not like at like 11 pm.

 

Also TNA should bump their shows up to atleast 2 hours. One hour goesnt really cut it in wrestling. The matches are shorter and nt much can go on.

[Werleman1]

So tonight is SS. is it just me but does the SS card look a little weak tonight??

Anyway, i hope when SD! wins RAW won't use any excuse like their champion wasn't involved in the match, and i hope i get to see Taker whoop some @ss tonight.

I hope Melina wins , but doubt that is gonna happen since then SD! is gonna have 5 titles and leave RAW with 3, but maybe this can also help make SD! the top brand!!!

 

[Joey.Leone]

I paid £14 and stayed up until 4am to see that?

 

I wanted the deadman! Not the f*cking dead biker boy.

[Werleman1]

He came back as a biker????

[woodprior383]

Oh god I hope so... I hate the deadman thing.
