I think that's a big reason why some wrestlers look down on guys like Meltz. Now I'm sure Dave works hard and made some sacrifices, but to suggest his sacrifices were more than or equal to anyone in wrestling is just flat out insane. I mean, I don't think Meltz ever tore a quad getting the latest Observer mailed out. I don't think he ever got divorced or estranged from his children because he was always on the road. I don't think he ever went bankrupt from trying to keep his dream alive. I can't imagine how much a statement like that would piss off a guy who's spent his life in the business taking bumps every night.

The card so far: SIX MAN MAIN EVENT Rhino and Team 3D vs. Jeff Jarrett and America's Most Wanted X DIVISION CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH “The Phenomenal” AJ Styles vs. Team Canada’s Petey Williams ELIMINATION X MATCH: ELIMINATION RULES “The Fallen Angel” Christopher Daniels, “The Samoan Submission Machine” Samoa Joe, Alex Shelley and Roderick Strong vs. Chris Sabin, Matt Bentley, “The Original Playa From The Himalaya” Sonjay Dutt and Austin Aries! NO DISQUALIFICATION MATCH Sabu vs. The Monster Abyss CONTENDER'S MATCH "The Alpha Male" Monty Brown vs."The Charismatic Enigma" Jeff Hardy TAG TEAM BATTLE Team Canada vs. The 3Live Kru Other matches will probably be announced on the Impact! before the PPV. Since the "Elimination X" match is basically a Survivor Series match done TNA style, could this be the first shot across the bow of WWE by doing one of their signature style matches? Doing this on the November PPV is certianly no accident.

Another interesting bit is Heyman's contract is up at the end of the year too, so WWE is going to have to either re-sign someone Steph absolutely hates or risk letting go someone who could really push TNA to become a solid challenger.

The NWA has a North American title that would fit that role perfectly, and currently the title's only defended whenever someone remembers the belt still exists.

Whatever it takes to get Haas in is fine by me. And Jackie's not that bad as long as she doesn't attempt to wrestle again.

Yeah, Vince would never let a guy work drunk. They have to be drunk AND stoned, just ask Marty.

I thought for sure that Jimmy Hart appearing for the HOF/WM stuff meant they had some sort of deal. For that matter, how did he retain the rights for music he came up with while under WWF contract? Isn't it Business 101 that anything created while under contract to a company reverts to that company's possession when the person leaves? Netflix has the 4 individual 5-disc sets, but I don't know if I even want to put it in my queue with everything all chopped and dubbed.

I think the wait was until Loss got DVD recording capabilities, which should be happening in about a month or so.

What, is Vince going for the ultimate history rewrite and now trying to say Jake wasn't an addict who abandoned his family? Cause that would take some balls so big you'd have to purchase them at Costco.

How can they bury Beyond the Mat when it was just them filming Jake being Jake?

Netflix usually carries WWE DVDs, and they don't have this one as of yet. Boo-urns to that.

TNAwrestling.com is announcing Jackie has signed with them, hopefully this means Charlie Haas is soon to follow.

TNA inches closer to a regular prime time slot, and the timing couldn't be better as the WWE can't stop stepping on their own dicks.

What sucks is, if this set doesn't sell because it's cheaply made, Vince is likely to interpret it as there not being a market for big box sets. Anything but admitting they cheap-assed it.

It's not bad enough that they overdub themes, but they do them in the most awkward way possible. Two that leap to mind are Christy Hemme's theme getting replaced by generic elevator music at WM (despite her dancing to the beat of her original music, making her look like a retard) and any match where Taker used Kid Rock as a theme on his 3 disc set. I know Hogan's got edited in WM1 since he was using Eye of the Tiger then, but I can't figure out why in-house themes get dubbed.

What's funny is that in the past few weeks both TNA and WWE have had to rebook a PPV at a moment's notice, and I know who I'd say did better at repairing the damage.

Not everyone has the time, cash, or hookups to obtain the quality you're speaking of.

The problem is that most of the people who say "stop watching" usually have a stash of tapes/DVDs from around the world to keep them occupied, and not everyone has that advantage. I know I've been paying far less attention to WWE since I've been getting Mid-South and TNA comps. Hell, I forget about Smackdown most weeks.

WWE, until recently, was the only outlet to watch pro wrestling on TV every week. To clarify, comparing wrestling to other TV programs is a bit of apples and oranges. The Simpsons started to suck, but it wasn't the only comedy show on TV. People had other shows to watch that provided simliar entertainment. When WWF was shitty, we had WCW and vice versa. Now its WWE or TNA in a poor timeslot. WWE is more accessible to people who want to watch wrestling.

Not to mention most of these matches are right off WWE DVD releases. The only matches on there that I want are Backlund-Bret and Taker's debut at SS 90.

Storyline wise, there was no reason for HHH to go over either. People bitch about HHH's workrate but what really pisses me off is how wrestling is supposed to be faces getting revenge on heels but HHH attacks people and they never get revenge. After the savage beating he gave Flair, there's no reason for him to win the match.

Everyone on IRC is raving about Joey Styles, hopefully Vince will make a rare right choice and hire him full time.

I just used my regular web-based email.

No, that was my whole question. It just opens a player window.

When you click on that it tells you that you already have access and don't need to pay.
