Kristal(?) to Simon Dean: What about your upcoming match against the debuting BoogeyMan?
Dean: What?! ...What are you talking about? I'm not afraid of the BoogeyMan!
That bit with Simon Dean and having to be carried into the ring...FAN-TASTIC! And I have to give credit for Dean for taking a bump when worms were tossed at him.
I got! I know why there's something about BoogeyMan I was thinking of that looked familiar. He kind of reminds me of The Missing Link.

So apparently I missed Benoit/Regal...
...motherfucker.
Colcollazo - December 3, 2005 04:46 AM (GMT)
That Benoit/Regal match was BRUTAL. The usual stiff shit from these two, as they both get busted open hardway after a few of their headbutts together. It was a real stiff, fun, fun match, but both their Velocity matches are better.
Taker vs Orton is official, I'm looking foward to it.
So who does Batista defend the strap against at Armageddon? It looks like JBL and Rey are gonna have a match at the ppv, if not those three can have a 3 way, that could be pretty decent.

I'll also say Regal/Benoit was fucking awesome for an 8 minute TV match. While the one Velocity mat6ch I saw would rate around ****, this one seemed to be missing something in the transitions of the match. Still, an easy ***+ here. Regal/Benoit needs to happen more often on TV. B-r-utal.
I'm still watching, so I don't know what happens after that. (gets out the towel for Kane/JBL portions of match) I'm a hoss man, so sue me.
Big F'N Swigg - December 3, 2005 04:23 PM (GMT)
Why couldn't it have been a Benoit/Regal best of seven???
Scrooge McSuck - December 3, 2005 04:39 PM (GMT)
Because God hates me? Or someone still thinks Booker T is actually still worth anything, even though he's been buried countless times, was never that exciting to watch to begin with, and says "sucka" a lot.
dynamite kido - December 3, 2005 09:00 PM (GMT)
Seriously I've hated pretty much everything the WWE has done on TV for sometime now. Even good matches haven't been that good to me. But that Benoit/Regal match on SD last night was FUCKING BOSS. One hell of a match. I want to see these two feud stat.

In a feud that should be treated like a main event, but is a midcard.

Promote Josh Mathews to Smackdown. He put over London/Akio as if it were Hogan/Andre from WM III, but he sounded 100% dead serious and wasn't trying to get heat on himself like certain other PBP men do.

I've actually thought that Josh Matthews has been decent and NON annoying since he started on commentary. Hell I'd much rather hear him than Cole, Coach, or Tazz.

I'd have to agree
prof_plague - December 4, 2005 07:35 AM (GMT)
I think Matthews at least still has the passion (and knowledge of what it's like to be a fan), which makes him good with commentating, unlike some of the other non-wrestlers on the roster.
Scrooge McSuck - December 4, 2005 10:26 AM (GMT)
He doesn't sound forced, and he actually mentions things that happend more than 4 weeks ago. Hell, he even name drops promotions wrestlers worked in that aren't "ECW" and "WCW".

...There are other promotions besides WCW, ECW, and WCW? Wow. Wait...which promotions has he said?

I've also heard him name drop ROH, All Japan, and New Japan wrestling as well as Zero One.

At least it's not like 10-15 years ago when WWF and WCW couldn't even acknowledge each other.
SamoaRowe - December 6, 2005 01:53 AM (GMT)
You are all in for a real "treat" tonight as I am planning on doing a review of Raw B) Hopefully it will be up in the reviews folder minutes after going off the air.
TheGreatWhiteChoate - December 6, 2005 02:10 AM (GMT)
I turned on the TV and saw Coach calling Bischoff an asshole. I could have turned it off right then and have hit the high point of the entire night.
prof_plague - December 6, 2005 02:13 AM (GMT)
Coach: Bischoff is the greatest GM ever!
Me: I bet Mick Foley comes out. ...Or Austin.
:a few second pass: :Mick Foley's music plays:
Me: Hahah! I was right! So, called it!
prof_plague - December 6, 2005 02:24 AM (GMT)
Stephanie McMahon's entrance music when she walks into court...priceless. :)
TheGreatWhiteChoate - December 6, 2005 02:24 AM (GMT)
OK, I lied. Kane and Big Show pinning all three tag teams at once was pretty fun, and Coach saying "I object" followed by Vince's eyes bulging "SHUT UP!" was definitely the highlight of the night.
SamoaRowe - December 6, 2005 02:26 AM (GMT)
WWE actually did a backstage segment that was... good! I'm so proud of them, how long has it been since that happened?
prof_plague - December 6, 2005 02:33 AM (GMT)
To add to this Trish&Mickie James/Victoria's Crew feud, I demand a Diva Lumberjack match!
prof_plague - December 6, 2005 02:37 AM (GMT)
Wow! They acknowledged Tajiri as a talented wrestler!
SamoaRowe - December 6, 2005 02:41 AM (GMT)
So far these court room scenes have been great. Now let's let Mae Young ruin it.

That clip was the "pie eating" contest from Bad Blood 2003.
This entire episode seems to be designed to make Bischoff feel better about possibly being removed from television.
TehDoct0r - December 6, 2005 02:59 AM (GMT)
Foley's reaction to the recess was great. And I mark for RC Cola.
THEY GAVE SHELTON A BACKSTAGE SPOT!
Colcollazo - December 6, 2005 03:10 AM (GMT)
Chris Masters looked like such a fuckin faggot with his shirt off in the court.
Wow, that turned to be a good promo by Michael Hayes, decent segment but too long.
TehDoct0r - December 6, 2005 03:11 AM (GMT)
Ok, I don't care what anyone says, that segment with Edge and Michael Hayes was unbelievable. It might be too "insider" winkwinknudgenudge for some people, but my God was that tailor-made for me.
They really mention death a lot considering Eddie just passed.
TheGreatWhiteChoate - December 6, 2005 03:22 AM (GMT)
I realize his gimmick is incredibly stupid and he has no ability in the ring so to speak, but I enjoy the Boogeyman.
SamoaRowe - December 6, 2005 03:23 AM (GMT)
That Edge/Hayes segment was gold, IMHO. It actually felt real, especially considering all the shoot comments.

Good! I would love to see them in an extended fued or as a regular tag team.
prof_plague - December 6, 2005 03:36 AM (GMT)
From the Raw recap, I almost saw Carlito's modified swinging neckbreaker...but nope, nope. We are never allowed to see his finisher for whatever reason.
