    Yeah, I'm watching. But, it's the same crap I've seen for the last 3 years now. I don't know if it's because I've enjoyed TNA's PPV's so much the last year or what, but so far, it's been too predictable and nothing really great. Hopefully it will pick up.

        Re: Survivor Series

        Benoit/Booker - I was a huge WCW fan, so I've seen it, doesn't interest me too much, but was a decent match, of course the interference, but what else is new?

        Trish/Melina - don't watch woman's wrestling. It's like watching women's basketball. Don't like it. Valets/Managers are fine, but I can't stand watching women compete in the ring. That may be sexist, but that's just me. I'd rather watch a good Benjamin/Chavo match or something.

        HHH/Flair - Not interested. HHH needs to be back in the title hunt, and frankly, Flair as IC champ is just ludicrouis. All the talent on the Raw roster that deserves a chance to build his career around the IC title, and they have it on a 56 year old man. Turns me away.

        And I'm sick of hearing about Vince screwing Bret. We know!!! Let it go. He doesn't, isn't coming back to work for you, get over it.

          I'm assuming Flair won? It was the only match on the card that i'd actually pay to see.

          I just want to comment on what you said here tho, It's actually a genius move to have Flair as IC champ. It kills two birds with one stone:

          1) It gives Flair one last shot at glory

          2) It elevates a title that hasn't meant a damn thing since 1998. Having Flair hold the title elevates it and makes it important rather than being a useless prop.

            Re: Survivor Series

            Booker over Benoit in 14 minutes. Leads series 1-0

            I think Trish beat Melina, I flipped to the Jets/Saints game, didn't watch, but saw Trish leaving with the title.

            HHH over Flair in 26 minutes. Bloodfest, carried Flair out by medics. Must of watched Genesis.

                I respect your opinion, but Flair's glory days should have been over in 1998. I was always a huge fan, dating back to the formation days of the Horsemen in NWA. But you need to know when to say when. I'm a wrestling fan, enjoy both WWE/TNA, but when you have talent such as Benjamin, Carlito, even Masters, it's time to give them a run with the belt. It hasn't been defended by Flair the last two PPV's, so how's that make it elevated? It may kill 2 birds with 1 stone, but when the rest of the birds decide to leave the coup, aka Christian, and not given the opportunity because you're held back, it tends to make people mad.

                  I also respect your opinion HOWEVER Carlito and Masters can't work worth a lick so it would be a travesty for them to have the belt. I do agree that Benjamin deserves a title shot tho. So you win in that regard.

                  As for Flair, he hasn't embarrassed himself in the ring and unlike guys like HHH, Hogan, Nash etc etc. He doesn't use his position to book himself on top. In fact that's probably why Flair had such a diminished role in WWE for most of his time in this 2nd stint with the Fed.

                  I'm a huge fan of Flair and as long as the fans still show interest in him and he performs well in the ring then i'll support him.

                    Re: Survivor Series

                    Just so you guys know HHH/Flair at taboo tuesday was officially an IC title match so he has defended it at a PPV since he won it. Obviously was night a title match tonight though or HHH would be champ. But yeah I agree Flair as the IC champ elevates the belt but the guy has been a 16 time world champion so the IC title is a step down for him but that's okay because Flair hasn't been good for a very very long time. I wish he would reitre.

                      Exaggerating to make a point? I ask this because the match against Carlito on RAW before he won the belt was IMO a MOTY candidate.

                        I didn't even know this was today. Pretty weak looking from the results. Figured Edge would've used his money in the bank shot by now.

                          I'm thinking it will be done at the royal rumble.

                              see wrestling wise...no Masters isnt champion material, but in wrestling today its based on entertainment. Ifen that makes for more entertainment value, which therefor would make him a good heel champion. So Masters having a belt like the IC title, isnt a big problem.

                              Its exactly like Cena...hes not the best mat wrestler...but he entertains...the crowd loves him, his shirts sell, hes good on the mic, therefor more money for vince. Exactly why he has the belt.

                              Im glad he does though. Im not a fan of his in ring skills, but based on what I have seen from him outside of the ring and on his promos "5 questions with the champ" on wwe.com, he really seems like a humble, down to earth guy. I hope he sticks around for a long time because hes won me over as a fan.
