Wrestling Weekend Wrap-Up 1/10-1/12!
by scottiboi on 1/13/08 3:38 AM
Alot went down this past weekend, BIGGEST OF ALL..the apparent return of The Big Show to WWE. A rare Boston ROH show topping Edison, NJ's show...alot of controversy of the booking of the FIP Title matches. Also Chris Harris' status confirmed and more!
Well, to start off it was confirmed this weekend that Chris Harris has come to terms to terminate his contract with TNA. Thus confirming reports that he was signed with WWE, the deal reportedly includes a clause that has him bypass developmental. This could become a mistake as Harris does need some work in certain areas. It was also reported that WWE has re-signed Ron Killings to a contract. This I think WILL be a mistake. Killings didn't get over the first time and I dont think he will this time.
On Sunday word went around that former multi-time World Champion The Big Show has resigned with the WWE after a brief affair with boxing and a small wrestling tour with Hulk Hogan fell apart. According to the Wrestling Observer Show's down to about 440lbs. This is great for him as I've also felt he was the best big man ever in wrestling. When his weight balloned his talent seemed to go down. But if he can stay in shape he'll be great to watch.
PS...I placed Big Show in my #1 spot of wrestling big men based on the following:
-He had more athleticism than anyone his size...7 feet+
-He could make smaller guys look better than say Giant Gonzalez or Andre the Giant(even though thats a close one)
-And he was just damn more entertaining.
The ROH Show Friday night in Boston was great. The new building was great. The Austin Aries vs. Erick Stevens was outstanding. But I guess the finish was the same Saturday night in Edison. From what I hear the whole Edison show was lack-luster. But if they're trying to get Erick Stevens to be the next main-eventer(which I like, I like Erick Stevens solo), they can't have the same result with a different opponent. Double CO/restart the first night is cool. But to do it again the VERY NEXT NIGHT is just silly.
Because of the ROH i wasn't able to see Smackdown! So I'll give my best thoughts via Internet results. Seemed to be your average Smackdown! Only shocking thing is the Handicap match between Striker/Henry and the Undertaker only took 2:25? We as fans are supposed to believe that Mark Henry's an unstoppable monster. But it only took the Undertaker 2 and a half minutes to beat him AND Matt Striker? Then he beats a sneak attack from Henry and BDV? Some monsters.
UPCOMING PAY-PER-VIEWS
ROH: UNDENIABLE ON JAN. 18TH

SmackDown looked so dull to me. I normally try and find clips of bits that interest me in the spoilers on youtube, but it just seemed like everything listed for the show had already happened several times over the last six months or so.
