The WWE thread died in the Sports section because WWE isn't a sport. Its sports entertainment.

1) The dearth of good tag teams - True, but its so hard to find a couple of guys who can work well together. Its easier to get two big name talents and force them to team, or a big and a small talent. With big and small talents, the star power of the smaller guy will increase. Then, you can get a couple no-names (in theory) and hope for the best. Look at the FBI. Nunzio wasn't making the impact that Noble thought he would, Palumbo NEEDS a partner, and Stamboli just was not being used on RAW.

On another note, LOD - The RoadWarriors, have pretty much been ignored by the WWE. They fought two unimpressive dark matches, and it seems as if they were denyed a new contract with WWE. Back to the indies they go.

2) Women wrestling has gotten MUCH better with actual talent that can wrestle. However, as well as they wrestle, its hard for the crowds to get into the matches. For any number of reasons, the quality of the matches are relatively poor. Its like the low end of the Cruiserweight male fights. Its interesting to a point, but once you hit it, its prettu much pointless.
Ranked Femme wrestlers in my opinion -
1) Victoria for her knack for creative moves, and a great angle
2) Jazz is sheer power. Butt ugly, but sheer power.
3) Molly Holly/Ivory. They are the epitome of womens wrestling. They have the moves, and the technique, but they seem to lack any staying power with the crowd.
5) Trish (fifth because molly and ivory tied, remember? ) - She looks okay I guess. But I just don't see it. She has vastly improved over the past 2 years.
6) Jaquelin. Well, we need a jobber don't we? And she does a fine job of it, especially with those huge funbags of hers.

3) Old applause. Gad, the last thing I need to see is old man boobies jiggling. Its nice to see them again, but they get too much air time. It would be nice to see them work with the REAL up and comers. Not just work with the established stars.

I've heard of Vicious and Delicious, but I don't think I've ever seen them and recognized them as VandD.

Nash sucks. Plain and simple. He has horrible ring charisma, and he really cannot wrestle. Read the bottom for more.

Benoit is a STAR. It would be nice to see him win the title. Heck, Jericho won the Undisputrid title, so Benoit needs to win a major title as well. Get Rhyno off his back, and get him in the ring with Lesnar, or a return glory match with Angle. Angle and Benoit work together like Peanut Butter and Jelly.

Tank Abbott is a whore.

and La Resistance is a two-bit whore.

========

People who should get injured so badly that they cannot wrestle EVER again.

1) Testicle - If you knew what I said before, then this is a repeat. He has no in-ring talent, and barely any character development.

2) FreakSteiner - Same. No wrestling ability, and is just a musclebound weirdo.

3) Gay-Train - He's too dam hairy, and not interesting.

4) Charlie Haas - No professional wrestling talent. The only reason why Team Angle is any interesting is because of Shelton Benjamin.

5) Kevin Nash - He's a horrible solo wrestler, and a terrible interviewee. He cannot record a promo for his life, and cannot think of a complete sentace of a cup of water.

Word on the street - Bradshaw is nearly 100%, and the APA has been reformed. Watch Smackdown next week.

===

The Basham Brothers DO make their WWE TV debut tonight. The team is made up of two OVW stars. "Machine" Doug Basham, and Dave "The Damaja" (damaja = Damager)

Expect a lot of high impact moves out of these guys. They pack alot of power, and a lot of punch.
