Re: WWE - The Time Has Come
Vengeance feedback
My God I hope you shake up this piss poor roster like you promised you would, and do it soon. So much crap around really
Matt Hardy going over Chavito was the right choice. Chavo bores me, he's nothing more than a Cruiser or Tag wrestler, and that Bam Neely (horrible name tbf) pisses me off. Thankfully V1 looked the sex and the heels didn't.
Poor Tommy Dreamer. Fuck Delaney off. Another waste of space like Neely. Hawkins/Ryder are one of the very few decent teams around atm, and it's good to see them holding the gold for now until we see some better tag teams come around.

Um, ew. Just tell Mac you want in his pants plz, without hiding the message in these kind of hilarious posts. Michelle is a string bean, but Mickie has those hideous THUNDERTHIGHS!~ Give her a challenger with talent, I'm sick of seeing EVERY BTB atm with Mickie as their Women's Champion. Very bland tbh.
Canadian Bulldogs ftw. Like that name, like the team. Do NOT like Cody Rhodes, even a veteran like Hardcore Holly can do better. Holly to squash the ungrateful little **** plz.
HBK/Y2J for the IC Title in this day and age  . Gotta give you credit for finally making the IC division have some meaning again, nicely done. OSHIT @ HBK owning Jericho afterwards, that's the kind of thing you'd expect Y2J to do to Shawn, not the other way around. I marked.
Shelton is the ECW Champ? Wowza, I wasn't a fan of Kane as the ECW Champ so this is gonna be good. Shelton and Burke's alliance can do good things for both men and with Shelton finally getting a credible push around here, it'll be interesting to see who's next in line for the "Golden Standard". And btw the "Paydirt" is a woeful name for a finisher. Change plz.
Triple H going over Batista was good. It's no secret 'Tista sucks ass in the ring and doesn't deserve any more rubs off The Game. Haha Trips out smarting the roid rager was class, I hope for a good run for Hunter with the belt.
Edge as always has help from his Edgeheads to beat Taker. FFS GET RID OF VICKIE GUERRERO. She's incredibly repulsive, annoying and just down right undeserving to have any sort of prominant role in the show at all. FIRE THE HIDEOUS DRAGON!~ Plz  . Nice stuff from Taker/Edge but it's time for a new challenger for Edge, as with most of your feuds, are feeling a little too like IRL atm. I'm sure that'll change tho, you're too smart to try and keep things boring and "realistic". Atleast I think you are 
Good stuff overall Para, you jobber whore you.

Re: WWE - The Time Has Come
Recaps
Okay, so it seems as though you are building Shelton into the WWE Title scene? NEVER would’ve expected that. At this point he is surely more on the level of a Kane than a Hunter or Dave. Tag match and aftermath with Shelton taking both men out to close Raw was a shocker for sure. Not sure where this is going. Shelton and Elijah are ECW rit? HBK challenging for the IC is meh. I understand it does happen. I remember Hunter challenging Flair for the IC title back in 2005. I just think BOTH men are bigger than that. Certainly would have to be considered the biggest IC Title match ever though. Jericho should retain, as HBK>>>>>IC Title even more than him. Rest of the matches on this episode seemed meh, and did nothing to explain storyline progression. Except Kennedy appearing to turn face after jobbing to Hardy.
Not bad matches really, and they all had the right winners, it just doesn’t really tell us anything. Loved the ME though, as Shelton has now done the same thing he did on Raw, and thus may not be challenging for the WWE Title. You really seem deadest on pushing Shelton to the sky. He’s awesome, so that will work for me, especially if you allow Burke to be his mouthpiece.
Two gimmick matches back to back is a bit anticlimactic, as I feel feuds should end on a huge gimmick match. So TLC should’ve been enough. You never want to get into a position where one match makes the other look insignificant. That being said, if any gimmick match can follow another as the feud ender, its HIAC. Should be awesome. Much better matches on Smackdown this time. Seems you’ll be going with the Hardy-Guererro match WWE already did. Interesting that Shelton only verbally confronted Edge rather than dishing out what he did Monday and Tuesday. Pretty obvious Shelton will challenge Kane, as the other two matches don’t have room.
Soz, but I just realized what I was in for if I continued to review everything I read. I cannot do it this time around sir. Like you said, it’s too long. It’d be different if it were a PPV or something, as you know. I’ll read through, and comment as needed. Sorry about how random and spacey these next comments may have turned out.
Canadian Bulldogs, ftw. Nice match there with the two NOC matches teaming up. Good booking for feud progression w/Chavo and Bam going over, as well as Kane over Benji’s Burke. Really nice to see Hardy redeem himself against Bam one on one. Noble > Sydal. Show of respect? Badd ass Noble plz? Interesting for one of two challengers to be forced to lose to the other. Taker putting Batista over is a major job to do, and one I think Batista deserves at this point. Taker has gotten the better of him for the most part. Of course, Batista had some help this time. JBL-Hardy and Umaga-Kennedy feuds seem to be building nicely. Another solid tag match there between the IC and WWE Title match guys, with the combatants mixed up a little differently this time. HUGE win for Kane against both Burke and Shelton. MVP and Burke is random when he’s been up Shelton’s ass all this time. Punk, ftw. Hardy gets a rub from the fans, ftw. Last week of matches before the PPV almost seemed weak compared to previous. Good nonetheless. Lots of mixing it up, while also clearly building some pretty nice looking feuds too. I’ll never get used to see DQ finishes in ECW tho. More extreme plz?
Vengeance – Night of Champions
Really wish you’d have got rid of Vengeance from the name. Meh.
Hardy >>>>>>>>>>>>> Chavo. He’s been on a roll too, main eventing Smackdown and such. Good move, and good opener.
Glad to see the ‘Rated R Entourage’ retain the tag title here.
Mickie wins. She’s hot. The end. Awesome.
Canadian Bulldogs win the belts maybe even too early, but meh. Rhodes turns on Holly – FINALLY. Rhodes is underrated. People hate him, but he will one day be awesome.
Love Y2J retaining, as with HBK being above the IC title it’s the right move for so many reasons. One, he doesn’t hold a title he is above. Two, it makes the IC title look immensely more prestigious. Three, Jericho – even as IC champion – gets a great rub. Love the way HBK sorta paid Y2J back for Mania 19 there, with a cheap shot following an attempt at sportsmanship.
For god sake’s, Shelton can’t win on his own for fuck-all! Shelton as ECW Champion is certainly awesome, and was the right choice considering all options. But damn, let him win alone plz?
I actually found the ABtista-Triple H matches to be highly underated. I am willing to bet it was simply the time period, and abrupt changes that were being made in the 2005 era that led people to predispose those matches. When watched back today, they’re actually pretty good. Triple H winning was the right move, with Batista actually being a SD superstar and all. Interesting that as a face he resorted to a low blow to win.
Edge over Taker for the billionth time is fine with me. Edge is awesome, and beating Taker inside HIAC is certainly a major rub. Hate that everyone seems to have to lose by cheating or interference though. It’s okay sometimes, and in some matches etc. Seems to be happening a bit too much though. Meh, whatever.
News
Cena getting a break is fine.
Wow, Taker taking substantial time off. I could see him drafted during the draft, and simply making his return to Raw come November.
Fucking LOVE the idea of getting a new network, making the product edgier, and bringing in some stars. Raven, RVD and others come to mind as who you’ll be bringing in. Just make sure no contracts are signed with MTV. That’s my network.
Draft shall be interesting. Make it your own, plz?
Rhodes heel turn is fine, and perhaps, will do him good.
HBK-Michaels to continue to the end of time? Sex.
Good shit Para, and again, the ground work is being laid for you to take this thread to great places.

I've got big things in store for Hardy, just the start of things to come. In the next few weeks tbh, I'm sure you'll accuse me of giving him a Jesus Push but I assure you that will not be the case.

Shelton getting involved in the Main Events was just as a way of trying to hype up his victory as King of the Ring before he ultimately made his choice. You're right, Jericho and definitely HBK are bigger then the IC Title but I wanted to keep their feud running along so really it had to be done. Michaels was never going to win.

I decided to go for HIAC because I wanted the feud to end differently to how it did IRL.

Yeah, I know. My biggest problem with my shows is sometimes it's quite long intervals between when I get to write so I've actually forgotten what I'd written.

Without a doubt. I can't stand this roster, it's absolutely horrible so it'll definitely jazzed up a little.
Again, thanks for the feedback guys. You know they'll be returned. I'd rep you both if I could but the computer says no. |

Re: WWE - The Time Has Come
Well i'm not going to review every seperate show so I thought i'd just leave my thoughts on the Vengeance match-up's and how they came to be...
The Matt Hardy and Chavo Guerrero fued was reasonable. Although it is the same as in real life. I read what you said about you thinking of it before the WWE pulled it off, so I completely understand. Anyway the match between the two at Vengeance would of been a ripper to watch, but it could of done with some more description. Not too happy with Hardy going over, as I find him quite bland and boring, which is the complete opposite of what I think of Chavo. But all the same i'm certain you did what's best for this thread and it's storylines.
The WWE Tag Team Title match seemed like more of a filler than anything. The build up to the match was okay, much like the plain old WWE would do it. Which I think is what you were actually aiming for, so as not too take up too much time. Again the match could of been more detailed, but it got the job done. The right team went over and in the right fashion, with Delaney the cause.
The Womens Title match had no real build up, but Mickie needed to be used somehow. Her going over was the right choice from a business point, but from a personal point I would of loved Michelle to go over and realise her dream. Especially after she won a Battle Royal to get there. The recap of the match at Vengeance was funny, but not something I would do. Then again, who really cares, it's only a Divas match.
The World Tag Team title match was superb, the build up not so much as it was only a Number #1 Contendership match. But all the same the match itself was very well written with the result making me very happy. The new champions are fine by me, but it's the aftermath that I really liked. I could see it happening a mile away, but yet you still made it seem shocking when you wrote it. The shot with the title, and then the Flowing DDT on to it was fantastic, Cody as a heel should be better for him, and the fued between him and Hardcore Holly will be great.
Chris Jericho versus Shawn Michaels sure was the biggest Intercontinental Title match in recent history. I enjoyed every minute of the build up, with the two being involved in a series of matches and Main Events. The actual match sounded like an absolute epic, the ending was ok, could of been worked a bit better. I liked the result, and what happened after the match was quite good. Just when it seemed like HBK was sincere about shaking Jericho's hand, he goes and hits him with some Sweet Chin Music. I can see this fued continuing for a while yet. Overall, a thoroughly well written match, that should definetly happen in real life.
Shelton as ECW Champion? I like it, and it's something the WWE should of done a long long time ago. After reading the first RAW I thought that Shelton was going to Main Event Vengeance along with "The Game" and "The Animal", and I would of loved it if he did. Same goes with Edge and the World Heavyweight Championship, which also did not happen. So I was a little dissapointed when I found out that he would be challenging Kane instead. But all the same Shelton has finally gotten the title he so richly deserves, and the partnership of Elijah Burke and Shelton is a good one, I can really see a fued between the two happening soon enough. Finally I liked how "The Gold Standard" was at all the champions throats before stupidly choosing Kane. Good work with this angle.
The WWE Championship match seemed very exciting. And with the fantastic build up I really expected it. The match sounded great, and with you pointing out that the crowd was well and truly in to it, 50/50, it just made it that much better. Triple H getting his foot on the bottom rope after a Batista Bomb is brilliant, and would of been great to see with the crowd going crazy and all. However from then on I wasn't so sure about it. I mean, Triple H had just been Batista Bombed, and now he's able to get up and deliever a low blow to "The Animal". Not too sure about that. But I had no problem with him winning with the Small Package, something different than the usual Pedigree you know. Well done with this match, and a good result.
The build up to the Hell In A Cell was basically perfect. I mean, from The Undertaker characteristically playing his mind games, to Edge accidently spearing one half of the Edgeheads, causing "The Deadman" to finish of the Smackdown before Vengeance on a real high, I loved it all. The match it self did not dissapoint. I really liked some of the spots you pointed out, would of been a true spectacle to witness. The ending kind of ruined the match a bit though, I mean, I much would of rathered Edge winning on his own, cheating of course. I think it would of meant a lot more and still of been able to leave 'Taker looking strong. The Edgeheads coming in and winning it for Edge was kind of stupid, I mean, you didn't even explain how they broke in. But still, the result was just what I was looking for, and the match for the most part, was absolute class. Outstanding match to finish off an outstanding Vengeance Pay-Per-View.
Overall I really like where this thread is going in terms of storylines, and just the actual quality of the writing. Your recaps are good, although could be a bit longer and a lot more informative. But I guess, you have decided to just go with the big post with a whole months worth, which kind of explains the lack of detail. Another thing i'm not so sure about were the buildups to the matches. I mean, three of the title matches alone were no more than Number #1 Contendership matches the week before. But still, I really enjoyed reading and reviewing this, your obviously a top booker and this is certainly a top thread. I hope my review has helped you in some way as at the end of the day that is all I aim to do. Congratulations and keep it up.

Re: WWE - The Time Has Come
I've read over a bunch of the shows in the past but haven't been too bothered to review them or leave feedback. But I think I'll just post some comments on Vengeance...
Saw that you said you had Chavo vs. Matt planned for a bit and that's okay seeing as in RL it came out of left field. No real purpose for the feud to be honest in RL but at least you had a purpose. Good call though on Matt getting the win despite Chavo having put up a good fight. I've been seeming to like Chavo a bit more recently as he really can draw a decent ovation of boos so hopefully you use him decently in the thread.
Not much to say on Edge's bitches retaining. Ew for Delaney. Never really liked the character and he doesn't have the superstar look for the WWE. Bye bye Delaney plz?
Wow okay Mac Jr. lol. I must agree on Mickie being hot despite whatever Reney says. Good to see her retain though.
Eh I'm not too big on debuting teams winning titles early but sometimes what needs to be done has to happen. Holly and Rhodes = bland so it's good at least that you ended the craptastic tag team. Hopefully this heel turn breathes a bit of fresh air into Rhodes and really I wouldn't be surprised if he finds himself in another tag team after this feud if that's where your headed.
I for one think that HBK challenging for the Intercontinental title doesn't hurt in him anyway but he helps the title and the prestige of it. Good call on having this match for the IC title despite what anybody else says. Triple H wrestled Flair for it randomly a few years back and HBK had wrestled for it a few years back too when Jericho had another run with it in RL so don't worry about that. But Jericho retaining needed to happen and hopefully he drops the title soon so we can see HBK/Jericho conclude as clearly it's not over the title.
Um Shelton for ECW Champion? I think that Shelton could go a far way not that he has to carry a brand by himself and hopefully you use him well. I think if it works fine that he could very well be looking at a future title reign on Smackdown or Raw but most likely Smackdown to be honest.
Hmmm, reminds me of Cena vs. HHH at NOC IRL. The 50-50 split (well more like men for HHH and kids/ladies for Cena)but eitherway HHH heel turn might be happening soon? His face character is somewhat interesting in WWE but he's always of course been a better heel. Either way I don't know if it was just a one off thing with the low blow in a dire need to win the match or it's the start of something?
Great way to end the night with Hell in a Cell and it surely did end the feud in a good way despite the controversy. I just hope 'Taker doesn't come back soon and declare he deserves another title match. It'd be like the 5,697th match between Edge and 'Taker. But regardless, kinda surprised Chavo didn't win the US title as I think having La Familia run around Smackdown with all of the titles would have been exciting to say the least.
I'll be looking for your next show to go up and by the way, I really love these recaps your doing. Easy to read and just as effective.

Re: WWE - The Time Has Come
Well, the next updates are here. This is a much shorter post as I want the focus to be on the draft.
Raw 30th June – Main Talking Points, it was a busy night.
Raw opened with The WWE Champion – Triple H and a very big mixed reaction from the fans. Hunter got straight to the point and said all he’d been hearing for the last 24 hours was that he’d screwed Batista. Hunter says he didn’t screw anyone, not Batista and definitely not the fans. He says he did what had to do to get the job done. He said the fans can boo him all they want but they really shouldn’t because the only thing he did wrong was give them a classic Wrestling encounter. Triple H says that after last night his level of respect for Batista had increased a lot and he said that he hopes Batista’s for him has done the same but last night he did what he did because he knew that after the match was over, he’d be back to SmackDown and it would be the last he’d ever have to deal with The Animal. Hunter went on to say that it was time for someone new, Batista earned his shot, but that’s gone now, it’s time for a new, fresh number one contender. Hunter welcomes the challenge but warns anyone that wants to step into the ring with him… suddenly Vince McMahon’s music hit to a big mixed reaction. Vince says since Hunter is so keen to find out who the Number 1 Contender to the WWE Title at Summerslam is going to be, he’s going to reveal him right now. Vince then introduces Triple H’s opponent for Summerslam and RAW’S FIRST DRAFT PICK… BATISTA!!! Hunter’s jaw dropped as he clearly forgot it was draft week while The Animal walked down the aisle clad in one of his flash suits. Batista grabbed a mic and immediately questioned Triple H how he could possibly respect him more after last night? Batista said he wasn’t shocked though because he came to expect a lot less from The Game a long time ago. Dave said all that Hunter’s performance last night did was make him want the Championship more. Batista said at Summerslam, Hunter won’t have the same luck because that title is coming home with him no matter what.
Vince McMahon appeared again after the first commercial break and reminded us that it is indeed Draft Week and all the Raw picks will be revealed tonight while SmackDown’s will be revealed on Friday and ECW’s tomorrow night. He then informs us that in the Main Event we will have a HUGE 6 man Tag Team Match where the final two Raw draft picks will be made public.
JBL cut a very anti-Jeff Hardy promo. He said he was still not done with him and tonight he will embarrass Hardy just like he did to him a few weeks earlier. Bradshaw says Hardy be hope that he get drafted because that's the only way his punishment will stop.
Defending his Intercontinental Championship for the second night in a row and despite Shawn Michaels making an appearance at the top of the ramp, Chris Jericho managed to defeat RAW’S SECOND DRAFT PICK FOR THE NIGHT… FINLAY!!! Jericho controlled most of the match and even Shawn Michaels strolling down to ringside couldn't distract him enough to cost him the match. Y2J won with the Codebreaker.
Hardcore Holly barged into Vince McMahon’s office demanding a rematch against The Canadian Bulldogs. Vince alerted Holly to the fact that his partner turned on him last night but Hardcore said he didn’t care because he wants those titles back and it doesn’t matter if he has no partner. Vince agrees and books him in a Handicap Match against The Canadian Bulldogs tonight for the World Tag Team Championships.
We saw a segment with TJ Wilson and Harry Smith – The World Tag Champions. Smith was on his mobile phone to someone telling him that “phase one was complete”
Armando Estrada’s music surprisingly hit and entered the ring with a microphone in hand, clearly with something on his mind. He said “ladies and gentlemen, it gives me, haha, great pleasure to introduce to you, the next Raw Draft Pick… ME! Armando Estrada! Dat’s right I got the call ‘dis afternoon and it was Mister McMahon and with dat call came the offer of a life time… an offer dat I could not refuse, Vince McMahon wanted me, Armando Estrada to be the NEW GENERAL MANAGER OF RAW!” The crowd were stunned and a little confused as Armando rambled on a little bit more before introducing his old comrade… the Samoan Bulldozer, UMAGA! Umaga looked at Armando skeptically before Estrada calms him down a little and then says that it gives him great pleasure to announce Umaga’s opponent, probably his toughest to date in fact and the next Draft Pick… COLIN DELANEY! Naturally the fans shit on this as Umaga kills Colin with the Samoan Spike after Estrada got up on the apron and snapped the Cuban Cigar to signify the end was near.
Hardcore Holly def. TJ Wilson & Harry Smith via DQ in the World Tag Team Championships Handicap Match thus meaning that The Canadian Bulldogs retain. The Bulldogs were disqualified TJ bought one of the Tag Titles into the ring and they then nailed a Double DDT to Holly on top of it, busting him open. Then with Holly all but broken, Harry Smith hoists Holly up, presumably looking for a Powerbomb, but using great strength Harry holds him up until TJ climbs to the top rope and flies off hitting a Dropkick from the top of the turnbuckle right to the face of Bob Holly, giving Harry plenty of momentum to finish him off with the Powerbomb!! Suddenly to a big mixed reaction, leaning towards heat, CODY RHODES CHARGES DOWN TO THE RING! Rhodes slides under the bottom rope and check on Bob Holly before looking to shape up to the World Tag Team Champions. Rhodes advanced towards them, not showing any signs of fear but then surprisingly The Canadian Bulldogs grab the arms of Cody Rhodes and hold them up to the crowd!!! The fans are irate as it seems Rhodes was in cahoots with the Bulldogs all along. The 3 celebrated in the ring to end the segment.
The Highlanders fell victim to the next TWO RAW DRAFT PICKS… MIKE KNOX and CHUCK PALUMBO!! Hot dang. Yawn.
In the Huge 6 man Main Event where none of the two teams were announced prior to the match it was Shawn Michaels, JBL & The Second Last Draft Pick... “The Guru of Greatness” JOHN MORRISON taking on Jeff Hardy, John Cena and The FINAL Raw Draft Pick, the man that was introduced after a LONG wait, he was billed as a man that was last seen on SmackDown in 2005…… CHRISTIAN!!! Captain Charisma got a HUGE pop from the fans and eventually the team of he, Cena and Hardy picked up the win after Christian planted JBL with the Unprettier before tagging in Jeff Hardy to nail the SWANTON BOMB and pick up the victory. Hardy, Cena and Christian celebrated with the obvious focus being on Christian back in the WWE!
ECW 1st July – Major Talking Points… another quiet night in the Land of Extreme but the Draft continues.
Shelton Benjamin and Elijah Burke had a victory celebration before Kane crashes the celebration indicating that he wants to cash in his rematch at the Great American Bash and it’s gonna be Extreme Rules! | |
WWE - The Time Has Come
