Re: Official DVD/Match/Show Discussion Thread
I just wish one of TNA/WWE signed all of the best Women's talent and then we could have an amazing division on our hands in either promotion. Instead, we have two very medicore, boring and irrelevant divisions. Think about a division featuring...
Mickie James
Tara/Victoria
Eve Torres
Natalya
Gail Kim
AJ
ODB
Kaitlyn
Paige
That's a division to care about, tbh.
Edit: That's without even delving in to the independent scene or rehiring former divas - McCool (she retired I believe), Melina, Kharma etc.

Re: Official DVD/Match/Show Discussion Thread
I'd only enjoy about 5 from that list, tbhayley.
Eve wouldn't be one of them. I'd add her for something nice to look at. Then again, with Paige & Natalya on my list I guess it's irrelevant.
Mickie James needs to GTFO. She called herself the best female wrestler in the world one night on Impact. Bitch has lost it.
Oh, and I'd have to have Sara Del Rey in my women's division. + Melissa Anderson. Those are a given.

Meh, nothing too overly special. By the time she was "seasoned" she still wasn't that great. Knew how to work matches better. Certainly was head and shoulders among a lot of the "talent" - boy, do I ever use that term loosely - although there wasn't much she did that warranted her as impressive. Match vs Mickie at WrestleMania is the good one. Everything else is either nothing special, crowd made the match, or was bad.

The only two women I've ever had a kernel of care for to watch in the ring were Lita and Trish. Compared to the rest of the women, I think they were fantastic. Compared to the men, of course not.

Re: Official DVD/Match/Show Discussion Thread
Fantastic write up on my personal favorite year in wrestling history ; 2005. I'm a true believer in the idea that the Orton-Taker feud is Orton's all time greatest feud while being Taker's greatest of the 21st century. Liked it far more than the Taker-Edge and Taker-Batista series's because of the segment quality mixed in with the stellar match quality.
You're right on the mark with your analysis from top to bottom as we would probably have the exact same PPV rankings besides BACKLASH being higher. Glad to see that ONS isn't being completely overrated because of "crowd reaction" like it normally is, when ONS 2006 was clearly better.
Batista/Trips or Elimination Chamber III ; either one is a beautiful choice for MOTY

They're my top two. In case you missed my top 50 list yesterday, here is it.
And ONS was a blast but the matches outside Tanaka/Awesome are not really memorable.
And if anyone skipped over my write-up, this is the link.

Re: Official DVD/Match/Show Discussion Thread
As far as I'm concerned Trish and Lita were great women's wrestlers or "Divas" if you want to use that term. They had the looks, can work matches, had over spots/moves, great crowd connection/appeal, and character. No, they are not on the technical levels of a Sara Del Ray or Cheerleader Melissa but the sum total of what they had to offer was all I could ask for in the top two talents of a female division. Both did great jobs as heel and face characters too.

I think everyone would in the world of WWE's women's division. Well, I'd probably select Bull Nakano or Maryse before Trish. But, I'm the minority.

I'll still take ONS '05 over '06. Both are tons of fun, but something about '05 has more appeal to me. Plus '06 has two very overrated lame bouts in Angle/Orton & Cena/RVD. The TAJIRI~! tag blows both away. Shame it never gets any credit.

Re: Official DVD/Match/Show Discussion Thread
YES. TRIPS-BENOIT GETTING SOME MAD LOVE IN HERE.
Still think that their Gold-Rush tournament match with TRIPS TAPPING AGAIN is just as good, and some of the best television matches of his career. It's probably my second highest ranked Trips singles' TV match ever behind the 2003 HBK bout.
He may be overrated by some and underrated by some, but Trips in 04-06 was AMAZING on a week to week basis IMO.

Once he turned face it was pretty much all down hill from there in terms of ring work for at least a couple of years.
