That tat is pretty badass. Must have cost a pretty penny(Well maybe he didn't have to pay, exposure and that).

That logo is very similar to the pre scratch logo. I like the scratch, guess its a bit old though.

3oh3 are far from a screamo band. It sucks that they ripped it off. Thats one thing I hate about when people cover a song, the original artists hardly ever get the credit for that song, unless they are big too.

Gates resigned, $36m over 5 years. $20m guaranteed. Good move. Now to get McNeill and Jackson resigned. Merriman too would be nice next year.

That was brilliant. Loving this new Magnus.

I take it you didn't see his matches with Edge then? He had 2 or 3 very good matches with him in '07 I think. Didn't his match with HBK win PWI match of the year?

Cena does have good payoff matches. HBK, Umaga, Trips, Edge, Angle etc.

Just to throw in there, Chilly tries to bench Favre during the Panthers game last year. Favre wouldn't allow it.

When did jobbing out The Rock or SCSA anger the fans? Did they turn off the tv? Stop buying ppvs? You make it sound like you don't think those are the same thing.

If he really doesn't want the problems then you job him out and let him go. You go back to your previous level of business and have the cash from that period to show for it.

So what you're saying is that you think Vince would rather trundle along for the next 4 years with rating and buys as they are rather than have a mega star who bumps ratings way up and buys too. Makes him a bundle of cash, possibly cause a few problems backstage(which is what you seem to think worries him) and raises exposure of the WWE brand worldwide. Then leaves? I know if I was Vince I would kill for a Rock or Austin mega star. Is it me or are there alot of Cleveland fans posting today?

Interesting. Is this just as it pertains to that angle or the entire show? Hopefully he gets its in the build up too, wouldn't make sense for it to be a one night thing.

Me too. He's an extremely repetitive heel imo.

Yeah it does. The point of the Nexus is too destroy the established hierarchy of the WWE. If Cena were to join, I'd assume that would be his goal too. What better way to do it than lead a bunch of those guys into a match then turn on them.

Theres something I hate about Codys ring gear. He looks really weird without knee or elbow pads.

Nash is hilarious. Whether he wrote that for himself or not.

Yeah, They probably can't afford to move around. Apparently the EC costs $250,000 to transport everytime WWE uses it for example.

To each his own I guess. I hear that they have ditched the whole emo persona and fake names, which is great if true. Mike Portnoy will be drumming too, and he is amazing.

Stone Sour and A7X are doing a joint tour. Hoping they make it to Ireland. I can take or leave A7X(Prolly decent live though) but I'm a big fan of Stone Sour, as you may already know.

Probably because the money paid by TV companies matches what they would get from PPV. I'm rather surprised the Super Bowl has never been considered to go to PPV(to my knowledge).

I guess, but alot of people are hoping to see the big KO punch too. I know you are only talking about your own opinion though.

Its quite hilarious that they put (spoiler) at the end of the headline.

Cards being stronger is very subjective. The casual fan who only orders the Tyson fight won't know the undercard fighters(Not saying you are, but I get that impression). That doesn't mean they aren't good.
