Smackdown Date: July 14, 2005 Location: DCU Center, Worcester, Massachusetts Attendance: 3,000 Commentators: Michael Cole, Tazz Things got a lot more interesting/controversial last week with the whole Muhammad Hassan/Undertaker situation.

Right now this show is colder than Labour’s approval levels so let’s recap the relevant news from Powerslam Magazine #184: – Eugene was released from his contract (he’d re-signed with the company a month ago) due to a perceived “lack of effort” which was believed to translate to “being fat.” – Gail Kim is recovering ...

In thinking of how poorly the WWE does feuds today, I was watching the Bossman/Heenan feud and it was such a great midcard feud.   1.  Easily identifiable issue:  Heenan insults his mother 2.  Way to stretch out feud:  The Heenan Family culminating with the match against Mr perfect that he should have won 3.  Heenan ...

If you could trade any three talents from AEW for any three talents from WWE with the goal of improving both shows, who do you move?  I'd send Randy Orton, Cesaro and Chad Gable to AEW.  Orton is their instant top star who is happy working once a week.  Cesaro can run the midcard having ...

Hey Scott, This just popped in my head recently, but do you have any idea when Adam Cole's contract expires? Would you agree he has the most leverage of all NXT guys? He's an instant main eventer if he were to go to AEW, and I'm sure WWE knows that too. Thanks. Plus I hear ...

Just wondering if you still watch MMA. You rarely talk about it anymore and the UFC’s end-of-year show tonight with 3 title fights on the card didn’t even get a mention on the daily thread post. I don't really watch actively at this point.  The abundance of titles and lack of star power really killed ... Read more UFC from Scotts Blog of Doom! https://ift.tt/35nUjCq via IFTTT

Both RAW & Smackdown are severely lacking star power. Other than the battle for "brand supremacy" once a year at Survivor Series, is there any legit reason for splitting the main WWE roster into two brands?  USA and FOX apparently both wanted it.  So here we are.   from Scotts Blog of Doom! https://ift.tt/2RS7yr3 via IFTTT

Hey kids, it’s Saturday! Tomorrow is the TLC PPV and they’ve done a pretty crap job of building it up in the one week since they started announcing matches.  Go figure.

We made it! Now, normally I’d give you a SmackDown preview, but the only thing we’re certain about is that Roman Reigns is unchained!  No leash holding him back!  He’s biting through the competition!  Have we hammered home the dog metaphors yet?  SUCH GOOD SHIT.

Don't criticize what AEW is doing.  Do you work in marketing?  Obviously not.  Because if you did, you'd see that they are doing everything 100% correct.  So until you get a job in marketing, don't criticize wrestling, because you'll just embarrass yourself. You sent me an email from a fake address called “Phil Suckalooni” trying ... Read more Hey Dummy from Scotts Blog of Doom! https://ift.tt/2LSA7ko via IFTTT

Scott: You know what needs to be retired from modern pro wrestling? The spot where a guy hits a big move and then is SHOCKED that the other guy kicked out.
