Also, they've rehired Chuck Palumbo and Test is getting a tryout match this week.

Apparently they are stock piling talent to hold them from doing TNA.

I've really come to my breaking point with Vince and honestly, I don't even care about the three rehires. This mixed with the story of them thinking of buying New Japan, I'm totally convinced that Vince himself wants me to not only quit watching the WWE, but wrestling in general.

... TEST??! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

I'm wondering...

What the flying FUCK was the point of firing Test, Shannon, and Palumbo, ifd they were only going to sign them back!? Usually "budget cuts" mean slimmer rosters. The roster is bigger than it was last year when it all happend, and they sure as shit aren't make much more money now.

Chuck Palumbo in WWE makes sense to me, I couldn't ever imagine him doing much of note in TNA. I don't really care too much about where Moore works, but WWE must be where the money (still) is if Moore was willing to walk away from TNA (where he was being pushed as an X division threat) to WWE (where he will surely be a jobber again).

Test is the only one of those three who I could see doing well in TNA. I would have been curious to see him tangle with Lance Hoyt and Abyss, even if the matches wouldn't be that great.

All Vince cares about is crushing the competition whenever possible. The fact that he's a complete asshole really hasn't been a surprise for several years now.

TNA will not miss Shannon Moore... in his place they have this phenomenal new wrestler named "Prince of Punk" who can carry shows for them.

That has me thinking... WWE will probably call CM Punk "the Prince of Punk" for no reason if he ever makes it to TV, just to dick with TNA.

Fuck it, let Vince have Moore. Now I don't have to see him being weird on the wrestling program I actually enjoy.

I hope Shannon Moore is looking forward to spending the next few months wrestling on the internet, and more than likely losing all of his matches (with the exception of being allowed to pin Paul London repeatedly, because Vince still hates him).

It's better than Moore stinking up a TNA ring. Remember that Street Fight he had with A.J. Styles? Yeesh...

I have no idea how the WWE could use Moore right now, besides to job to the other cruisers - may be see the title, and to job on Velocity, but that's all I figure; unless they start-up Mattitude again.

Street Fight: Shannon Moore vs AJ Styles

This is our last hope for a good match this week. Okay, the six-man tag was fun, but nothing I will remember. Moore is still carrying around the plaque he stole from Styles last week. Christopher Daniels is sitting in on commentary too. The bell rings and they start brawling. Moore rams Styles into the turnbuckle, but gets flung over the ropes onto the apron. Moore puts his legs on the shoulders of AJ Styles, looking for a takedown, but Styles flings him over the ropes. Moore hits the floor hard, and Styles pursues him with some stiff shots. The brawling picks up… so we go to a commercial… after a minute of action. During the commercial, I head over to Wrestlecrap.com and relive David Arquette winning the WCW title.

After a year of commercials, we are back and AJ Styles is in control. Moore attempted a chair shot, but Styles stopped him. They are brawling at ringside, and by “brawling” I mean that Styles is beating the crap out of Moore. Moore finally comes back, hitting a disgusting suplex, with Styles’ back hitting the guard rail! Moore and Styles brawl into the crowd, with Moore in control. Styles fights back, dropping Moore over a wall. Moore took a good little fall. Styles dives after Moore, and the crowd is pretty into this. Styles has always been good at using his environment to his advantage. The match finally spills back into the ring, and Alex Shelley is now at ringside, taping the match. Back in the ring, Moore has set up a chair. He goes to drop toe hold Styles into the chair, but Styles counters. Styles hits a drop toe hold of his own and Moore goes flying into the chair. Styles puts the chair around Moore’s neck and throws him into a turnbuckle. I am a big fan of violence, so I am enjoying this. Moore counters an enziguri, and he really is not selling any of those chair attacks. Moore puts the chair around the knee of AJ Styles. Moore goes to the top rope and jumps off. Styles lifts his leg so that Moore’s neck connects with it. Moore puts a single leg Boston crab on Styles, who needs to get to the ropes. Daniels hops up on the apron and throws in a towel, trying to screw him like at Final Resolution. AJ is annoyed with this interference, and it allows Moore to roll him up for the win at 5:42 (not counting the commercial). I just witnessed Shannon Moore picking up a victory over AJ Styles, I need a few minutes for that strange thought to sink in. Anyhow, the match showcased some nice violence, a few cool spots, but little to no selling from either guy. ** since it was entertaining, yet too short and had a dumb ending.
Winner: Shannon Moore


So in other words... the best Shannon Moore match ever... and that's not a compliment.

I take it you've never seen any OMEGA or watched WCW Cruiserweights in 2000-2001?

I've never seen OMEGA and my only Shannon Moore memories from WCW are him getting squashed along with 3 Count.

We've already been through this argument over that match, but it was a sloppy piece of shit, and one of Styles' worst matches in recent history.

3 count and Jung Dragons had some very fun matches. Moore had a ton of potential, but it seems that Vince has taken the wind out of his sails.

Is there even any OMEGA still floating out there?

Thinking back, I actually was enjoying Shannon Moore's early WWE work (when he first debuted as a partner of the Hurricane against Jamie Noble and his "cousin" Nunzio).

You can still find Omega on tape. I wouldn't call any of it great, but there were some very fun matches, and to see the shear number of guys who later made the big time is pretty impressive.

Are the bisexual orgies included in the tapes :P ?

The matches are used for bumpers during the sex scenes. :D

I doubt any of them are technical masterpieces or anything above ** or ***.

The orgies or the matches? :D

What's the difference?

Lita pisses in the orgies

I am not sure why they would try to sign all those guys they fired. Test is the most surprising in a way because he was opposed to the way WWE was using the Eddie Guerrero name with having Orton say that stuff. Test I don't think has signed though yet I heard he verbally agreed but nothing is in writing. I could be mistaken. Moore will help the Cruiserweight division.

Test = bitter. If you hire him back = not bitter.

Test in one way or another is with the WWE.

Moore is terrible and NOTHING will help the WWE Cruiserweight division.
