The PPV overall was better than you are giving credit for. It could of been better cuz 1 or 2 of those matches didnt even have a real setup and I think that the Randy Otron/Zack Ryder knock off was lame as well as a failed attempt in my opinion.

I give them credit for only 2 matches. The PPV was indeed a fail imo as the matches after the MCMG/Gen Me. match were terrible/boring which isnt necessarily because of the wrestlers, more so that Dixie Carter and the TNA creative team is full of idiots who just mis book everything and make their stars look weak. I will say that the one thing that may have saved this PPV from being a complete fail is Jeff Hardy's heel turn. Thats going to make for some interesting tv and Im actually excited for an episode of impact for the first time in a while

Agreed, cuz I dont think Jeff ever was heel in his career, was he?

he was heel when he was in the Brood with Gangrel

[Tha Lando ( Le CROM )]

wait a sec.. where is gangrel anyway? i mean i may not keep up with wrestling like i used to but everytime i have watched i dont see him an any of the major shows? is he still around anyway?

[JDubbs]

not at all. He's been gone for nearly 10 years

[Tha Lando ( Le CROM )]

oooooh ok, well i guess he hung up his outfit and  retired his fangs .
 i miss you gangrel you stinky impaler son of a B***h! 
Oh well...next gimmick

[Jason Todd]

actually Gangrel is still wrestling in a independent promotion called Wrestling Fan Xperience (WFX)

[The Heartbreak Kid]

Gangrel has been back several times since the time of the brood. Most recently was the 15th anniversary of RAW battle Royal.. Before that I think it was when JBL brought him and Viscera in to face The Undertaker.

In other news: Golddust and his rookie are....getting...MARRIED O.o. Weird I know.

[fer619]

http://www.wwe.com/inside/news/matthardyreleased

there's also the return of tyler reks (as a heel) on smackdown and ezekiel jackson on raw.... and both will be participating in the smackdown vs. raw tag team match at bragging rights


and finally....

I AM NEXUS!!!

[Space (DCL)]

...unbelievable...Matt Hardy...released...okay Matt lose weight, then head on to TNA and have a feud with yo brother Jeff...

Also, Monday Night Raw yesterday was...actually alright...

Cena getting humiliated by Barrett is enjoyable if you REALLY dislike Cena...

Goldust and Aksana getting...married...was unexpected on NXT last week, seems like its heading toward a feud with DiBiase and Maryse.

Tyler Reks? I forgot ALL about him since he debuted on ECW (i think) against Zack Ryder...

Ezekiel Jackson...remember him as the last ECW Champ against Christian (glad it was an Extreme Rules but still didnt feel extreme)...

Okay back to Raw...that battle royal was actually worth seeing and THANK GOD Teddy Long took that annoying Anonymous GM's Computer away. I've heard enough of Cole saying "MAY I HAVE YOUR ATENTION PLEASE!!"
At the end...all I can say is "SPEAR, SPEAR, SPEAR!!!"

[JDubbs]

Nice Sig fer619. We are One!


im so happy that Fatt Lardy got released. He was freaking annoying with his antics. the fact that he things he can go to TNA and be TNA champion is hilarious since he's not that good at all. He's just trying live in his brother's shadow again since he's doing well in TNA. screw matt hardy.

Nexus just isnt the same without Michael Tarver. They've lost that "Bad butt" factor to them. now its just Wade Barrett and his cronies. I still like them...even bought a Nexus shirt.

Ted DiBiase needs a new gimmick asap. the whole "son of the million dollar man" thing isnt working for him at all.

Im calling for the reunion of Cryme Tyme. Both of them are horrible by themselves. especially if they're supposed to be breaking up the Harts plus they add diversity.

I hope Smackdown wins again at Bragging Rights. Smackdown has been through hell and back and now improving. They get the crap of WWE (aka Drew McIntyre, Hornswoggle) and yet they still produce an enjoyable show

Dear God Randy Orton is so boring. His matches are the exact same all of the time. nothing new from him.

One last note, TNA needs to die. They are just an utterly horrible company with a bad product

[Tha Lando ( Le CROM )]

I cant believe Hornswoggle is still around. dont they get rid of damidgets like after a few months of showin them out?
he must got hat good put on a great show attitude cuz he still workin and in the rosters.

[.Batzarro.]

Cena getting humiliated by Barrett is enjoyable if you REALLY dislike Cena...

^That. Hope it keeps going and going.

Thinking the Goldust/Ted rivalry could be pretty entertaining to watch. We'll see where it goes though. Matt getting fired is about time IMO. He just has been really lame every time I see him. From in-ring to the mic, nothing works for him.

Anyways, pulling for Wade this weekend, his winning the title could really mix up Raw further. Aside from that, wish the whole Raw/Smackdown 7-on-7 would be elimination style (as any match should be when there's four or more people on each team) but unfortunately I'm sure it won't be.

[D.Magician(Ky)]

there's only one problem with the Nexus(can't keep the laughing back): They're "suppose" to be "one" but how many members have they gotten rid of now? I counted 4? I could be wrong. Show's how much they aren't "one".

[fer619]

they officially kicked out daniel bryan and darren young

michael tarver, i think it was only implied that he was kicked out, but it was never confirmed. i'm not sure though, i didn't get to watch tarver's tag team match with cena due to work, so i can't really say. what i do know is that tarver apparently suffered a groin injury, and cena's attack on him was set up to allow tarver to take time off to recover

skip sheffield is also injured, but he is still a part of Nexus AFAIK

Nice Sig fer619. We are One!

thanks! 

[D.Magician(Ky)]

tarver is out of the Nexus I believe cause Wade said to Cena that he was gonna get rid of him anyway.

[JDubbs]

Let it be known that Michael Tarver is kicked out due to INJURY.

[The Heartbreak Kid]

For the benefit of those who are purchasing Smackdown vs Raw 2011... (and to those with flash photography)

The following video reeks of awesomeness.

they are officially the Deadpools of this game

In other news: SMACKDOWN BABY!!! they won bragging rights!!!

[D.Magician(Ky)]

Cena is now the tag team champ for the third time!

[JDubbs]

I think the tag titles would have been better placed on Otunga and Slater/Gabriel. Slater/Gabriel could be a great team later. but as long as Nexus has the gold, its all good. and Smackdown kicked Raw's sorry butt and Kane (with the help of the Nexus) beats Taker

[.Batzarro.]

Is something going on between Nexus and Kane.? This is the second time they help him against Taker and even looks like they all took orders from him (including Wade).

Was glad to see the Raw vs Smackdown match was elimination style, made it that much better. Kinda ironic that Edge was pretty much the MVP of the Smackdown team. Good stuff though.

Nothing real special in the Orton/Wade match. Just another match that was bleh.

Were any of the other matches good.? Only saw those three.

[D.Magician(Ky)]

Bryan def. Zig
Nat lost 
Smackdown def. Raw (knew that)
Wade def Randy. (DQ)
Tag Titles have a new home
please let me no if Im missing anything

i believe that the nexus will be using the freebird rule to allow any two members of the nexus to defend the titles

Is something going on between Nexus and Kane.? This is the second time they help him against Taker and even looks like they all took orders from him (including Wade).

yeah, i was wondering this too. in fact, i don't know why i believe this, but something's telling me that kane is the anonymous raw GM, which would explain why the GM seems pro-nexus if there is indeed some kind of assosiation between kane and the nexus

Bryan def. Zig
Nat lost 
Smackdown def. Raw (knew that)
Wade def Randy. (DQ)
Tag Titles have a new home
please let me no if Im missing anything 

-kane buries taker with help from the nexus
-dibiase def. goldust, but goldust still ran off with the million dollar title
