Watching cruiserweight bouts right now. Currently watching fall brawl 97 with jericho facing Guerrero. Did jericho really use his current theme back then? Or is it edited?

Christian's song sounds so damn lame. Hate the way the dude singing says, "let the truth reveal"

sounds like such a scumbag

when the girls sung his music >
I might be the only one but I dig it

So many lulz in this video. Swagger dropping the belt, the OD big ECW belt, Christian's reaction from dudes on commentary

"It's...It's Christian."

"This moment has become instantly classic."

:lol

I loved Matt Striker's commentary until Vince got in his ear and killed his whole appeal. Also, just thinking about Christian before he left for TNA and him for the majority of his comeback, how sad. Christian slowly elevated his character and reached an apex in 05, and the WWE did nothing to capitalize on it. I thought when he moved to Smackdown in 05, he would reach main event status, but boy was I wrong. I liked him winning the title in 2011, but you couldn't have given him a worse run as champion.

Definitely agreed. Especially since he basically got the belt in 2011 because of Edge. Half his video packages before his matches as champion contained Edge

you guys need to get familiar

I've tried to locate some sold pwgs as well as newer ones. Seems like I have to buy their DVDs? Couple weeks ago I was watching their trailers for a straight hour. Very interested.
 
 
I expected her to drop the title last night, but I don't think they are trying to send a message to Punk.  If they were mad at Punk, they would be burying him on TV.  Instead, they haven't said a bad word about him.  Vince is supposedly trying to not do anything to upset Punk with the hopes he'll eventually return.
Aren't Punk and Vince pretty close as well?
I don't know if close is the right term, but Punk has a much better relationship with Vince than Hunter.
 
- Outside of being a former three-time title contender in the UFC as well as the regular host for UFC Tonight, Chael Sonnen also happens to be good friends with former WWE champion and MMA enthusiast CM Punk.

Sonnen was actually going to have Punk walk out with him for his fight in Chicago, which is the wrestler's hometown, two years ago when he faced Michael Bisping at the second ever FOX UFC Saturday card before his bosses at the WWE put the kibosh on him being involved.

Currently, Punk is embroiled in a dispute with the WWE (real or fake, I'm not sure) and there's been speculation about him coming back to wrestle at the biggest event of the year, Wrestlemania. Well leave it to Chael to find a way to get involved in this situation because he recently appeared on a Canadian sports show called 'Off the Record' where he was asked about his good friend Punk and the chances that he will compete at Wrestlemania.

Instead of speculating or even putting in a call to Punk while on the air, he instead offered up the personal cell phone number for WWE Chief Brand Officer Stephanie McMahon, daughter of WWE owner Vince McMahon.

"I don't know if Punk's going to wrestle at Wrestlemania, but I know who does. You want to know who knows? Stephanie McMahon -- and if you want the answer to that question viewers, call her on her personal and private cell phone number," Sonnen said. "There's no 555, this is her personal cell phone number. And have her tell Triple H I just played the game."

Triple H is McMahon's real life (and onscreen) husband Paul Levesque, who is also an executive at WWE as well, and whose nickname happens to be 'The Game'.

The host of the interview Michael Landsberg immediately freaked out telling Sonnen that he can't actually give away someone's cell phone number on TV, but the former light heavyweight and middleweight contender wasn't having any of that nonsense.

"We the people make that decision and we the people just did it," Sonnen said.

The actual number was blurred out when the interview aired, but Landsberg apparently called the cell just to see if it was actually real and it turns out Sonnen was right on the money. As of yet, neither McMahon or Triple H have responded to Sonnen's on air jab.

Since Wanderlei Silva has still not signed for his fight against Sonnen in May, maybe Triple H is willing to step up and accept the challenge to defend his wife's honor. 'The American Gangster' versus 'The Game' -- I smell pay-per-view buys from here.
