Wrestlemania 25

[Adam]

Todd & Matt are apparently calling the match at the ECW announce table. ECW Champion Jack Swagger is a lumberjack on the outside.

And if you ask for a source I don't have one, I lifted it from another forum.

The Tag Title match not being on the card is pure horse shit.

I'm hoping I can get a good stream, I don't have SKY and all my friends who watch wrestling have gone to Huston to watch the bastard event.

 

[DrVenkman PhD]

I guess I have to revise the list of stats to say "Yet another Mania with no tag title match".

 

[bps21]

I didn't think that they could do something lamer with the ECW title then they did last year with the Kane squash.

I was mistaken.

-- Dolph Ziggler suffered an apparent injury during his match this afternoon against Sim Snuka (making his first WWE appearance since the January 12, 2009 episode of Raw) at the WrestleMania Axxess event. The former Spirit Squad member suffered the injury during his match with the second generation wrestler, resulting in the referee putting up the "X" signal. Ziggler was seen clutching his shoulder and it believed that he may have broken his collarbone. Here is more on the story, courtesy of his official website, www.NickNemeth.net :

Day Three (Day of WrestleMania): Dolph Ziggler competed in another singles match, this time against Snuka. While Ziggler may have picked up the victory, it wasn't without an unfortunate circumstance. After the match, Ziggler was escorted towards the back while being looked at by WWE Agents. Ziggler was said to be in excruciating pain, to the point of tears, as he clutched his right shoulder. When asked by fans what had happened, Snuka replied by saying he believes Ziggler may have broken his collarbone during the match.

Ziggler was expected to be one of the many Lumberjacks during the WrestleMania Tag Team bout between The Miz & John Morrison versus Carlito & Primo Colon. It is questionable whether or not Ziggler will make his WrestleMania debut tonight.

I wonder if Dolph is future endeavoured soon.

I wonder if Sim Snuka comes out to help his dad tonight.

 

[Silence]

The non-internet fans are going to be confused when they see unified tag belts and weren't able to actually see the match.

The could melt the ECW title into a silver urn for The Undertaker for all I care.

According to someone over on F4W's THE BOARD~!, Michael Cole was really cool at Axxess if you called a match with him. He'll sign your DVD as 'Vintage' Michael Cole.

...and he is working ALL OF YOU! I was at the Axxess deal and he threw in
"Vintage" over and over ON PURPOSE because I egged him on.

The highlight was-
COLE: Wow, Shawn Michaels stealing a page from The Nature Boy's playbook. Locking on a figure four!
SOLO: Is that Vintage Flair or in this case Michaels?
COLE: It's V...
SOLO: Sorry COLE, can't hear you over ALL THIS YELLING IN THE HEADSET!

At this point Cole spits his Starbucks and marks out for 30 seconds. At the end of the deal he told me he loved the line and signed my DVD of he and I:

"Vintage" Michael Cole!

Still not a fan of his commentary, but really cool guy who gets it...

That doesn't just suck for M&M and the Carlitos, but all those scrub lumberjacks thought they were going to be on the show too!

This feels like something Vince would do out of spite. Did The Brian Kendrick look at him funny in catering?

That's awesome.

Carlito and Primo are tag-team champions.

That just further annoys me because, as I said in the "Have you ever been to a WrestleMania?" thread on TOTRTSM, Mania 23 had the Axxess Road Tour and I had to call a match by myself standing in a mall. I think I have the DVD somewhere though.

 

[DrVenkman PhD]

Carlito and Primo are tag-team champions.

Well I would have been pissed to see that, so I'm ok with it now. And with that, it's off to the TV! Enjoy guys, and feel free to talk lots here and post zero thoughts in a live chat no one will ever see.

Woahhhh-oh-ohh, Woahhhh-oh-ohh
WrestleMaaaniaaaa
Ever since our life (?)
Pump it up, pump it up!

 

[King Cucaracha]

justin.tv's chat room is scary and entertaining in equal measure.

 

[fazzle]

I think I'm most pissed because I had both Miz and Carlito on my team, so I would have gotten title win points no matter who won.

Fuckin WWE has no respect for my fantasy team.

 

[skullman80]

I went ahead and took the plunge and ordered the HD PPV.

Here is hoping it's worth my 55$.

 

[Adam]

I WANT to buy the PPV but my SBO won't actually let me. Something about credit on my card, haha.

I'll have to find a stream now. Anybody have one?

 

[still fly]

I haven't ordered a Wrestlemania since 2000, so I'm pumped. I don't expect much, but hopefully it'll be an entertaining 4 hours.

That's the chat we're using. I've been told to tell you guys.

 

[oldskool]

justin.tv for freebies, streamsmania.tv for $6.95 if you feel like being double illegal.

 

[luke-o]

To my fellow UK'ers, does the show start at 12 or 1? Cause none of the streams are showing shit.

 

[Jebus]

It starts NOW, luke-o

 

[Jaxxxson Mayhem]

The Fink!

 

[King Cucaracha]

FINK~!

 

[alkeiper]

For those who haven't seen it, we have a live chatroom available on these forums. Check the toolbar up top.

 

[luke-o]

Oh horse shit! Now I can't find a working stream!

 

[LPM]

Oh horse shit! Now I can't find a working stream!

The justin.tv one is working.

 

[Aero]

I bought the $6.95 stream. It's a very, very good quality stream (although not the WWE HD widescreen), but it is off by maybe 30-60 seconds compared to another stream I was watching.
