They should given Kane the title cause now at the Bash we are going to Batista go at it knowing Vince.</div>CM Punk, Both Hardys, and Lashley all have the same problem - Zero Mic Skills. Thats why they don't have straps.

No more bitchify. Hair is shorter and got bangs. I watched the video on wwe.com. His clothes reminded me of Edge. Grunge but still fashionable.

I think his real name is John Henigan.EDIT: And I think this Punk vs. Morrison feud should be pretty good. Imo Nitro/Morrison was a little underused for awhile. Punk feuding with Nitro means he is probably the next ECW Champ. I could se Punk win at SummerSlam

5 matches tonight, don't they have had 5 matches in one night ina while. Is it me or is they just talking and wasting time pretty much the whole show and barely no matches, I mean back in the attitude era it seems like they got like 4 matches per hour or something. It was so entertaining you barely kept count. At least the battle royal was somewhat entertaining, haha that lil guy getting thrown out by Kane and Batista and then Eugene haha, that was funny.
I don't watch Smackdown. I have no purpose in watching Smackdown. Edge, Paul London, Brian Kendrick are all gone. I never watched Smackdown even when they were there. I only watced the last 3 minutes because I wanted to see how small the belt was on Khali. Normally there is 6 matches, one normally contains a 60 second match!!

The only good wrestler in that picture who still wrestles in the WWE is Victoria. Torrie is still with the WWE, but she is not a good wrestler at all. I love her to death, but pretty much every other "diva" is just a playboy playmate. None of them can f*cking wrestle. You posting that picture only proves how little you know.Now Lita, that girl was fun to watch. Trish was alright too, but Lita is about the only amazingly entertaining woman wrestler for me.edit: Rather than wasting my time watching cock-teases on tv, I'd go straight to the porn of them if I were that horny.

Switch out the 10 minutes they give to the women's division and you have about the same time dedicated to the matches themselves. Where the show really blows compared to the attitude era is the mic segments. Back then you had The Rock, Chris Jericho, Triple H, Kurt Angle, Stone Cold, Mick Foley and even the Undertaker who could all hold their own and entertain the fans. They don't have the people who can do that anymore, aside from Triple H, HBK and Edge nobody can compare to what those of the attitude era were capable of. John Cena is severly over-rated, Orton sucks, Batista blows, Lashley should never touch a mic and everytime I hear Rey Mysterio talk I can't seem to find the remote control :no1:

Because Orton has always impressed me on the mic. Mr. Kennedy, he's sort of the new Rock on the mic. King Booker, CM Punk, Carlito. Ric Flair is always good, thats about all he can do now. Undertaker still is in the WWE

Orton can't finish a promo without screwing it up somewhere (watch how he stutters or stops to regain his focus), Booker T (pre King Booker crap) and Carlito (as a heel) are good speakers but they rarely get the time to cut a good promo and Ric Flair who in his prime was great but since he came back to the WWE has been saying/acting the same thing over and over again.I left out the Undertaker because this version of his character isn't a good fit to cut promos; similar to Kane where speaking actually makes the character "weaker". Mark Calaway is very good on the mic as seen by his promos during the Ministry of Darkness/Corporate Ministry angles and as his ABA gimmick.

I'm going to go back somehow and watch an old Raw or Smackdown because man they had to have more matches back then. Now they talk the entire show pretty much, 2 matches the first hour if that. And if they didn't all of the entertainment you didn't really notice, but now its like so boring you keep count. All of the matches seem like crap, idk why I still watch but maybe its because one day I hope that things will go back to what they use to.... Oh and Khali, dude is terrible.
^They didn't have more matches in the Attitude era. It was very similar in format like it is now, I mean the Attitude era had a lot of promos, mic work, also skits and backstage stuff. Matches were second fiddle. Look at the Stone Cold/Vince stuff, The Rock and Nation, DX, Rock N Sock, Ministry storyline, Hardcore 24/7. The difference is that era had more creativity, it still had it's share of bombs and weird ass sh*t. Katie Vick anyone? But overall it was entertaining to watch unlike the writing we see these days.
Legion of Doom=greatest tag team ever. I enjoyed vintage wrestling back when they had the WWF and WCW. Ultimate Warrior was bad ass as well. I haven't watched wrestling in a long time though.
Ugh man, I just don't agree. It seems like they effin just waste time nowadays, I never use to remember them taking 20mins for the next match to start. I remember when I went to Sunday Night Heat when they came to Detroit, aww man that was one of the best times of my life. I was kinda pissed because it was Heat and no one really showed up on Heat but as soon as they went off the air that's when the real guys came out and it was so fun. Ugh, the memories....
I've been watching WWE recently (SD and Raw for like 2 weeks), Hardy is sweet, but I wish Shelton Benjamin got a push in the WWE, he has some real talent.I like TNA a lot more, I hope Jericho and RVD go there.
