Oh for God's sake...of course it was all a work. Stinger/Bishoff/Hardy/the reff - they were all in on it. they practiced this whole thing. u don't think hardy knows how to "act" high?? if he was stumbling up the steps - how on earth did he keep his balance when he posed on the second rope (before sting came out)?? how did he get in and out of the ring during sting's entrance?? why would Sting put a SDD on someone who is intoxicated?? do u know how dangerous that could be?? for everyone commending sting b/c he made an "executive decision" (LOL) - you should be attacking him for not leaving the ring immediately once he knew hardy's condition - or for even attempting to wrestle (let along scorpian death drop) someone who is "fucked up"?
are *all* of u guys kids?? i thought the average age on this forum was a little more than 13. has some very astute posters have already commented - russo has pulled this stuff before. this is not unusual for him, but rather, TYPICAL russo. and the rest of the TNA guys are probably so desperate after the return of the Rock and the loss of Nash and Booker T to WWE - that they would stoop this low (and really, its not lower than what russo did with scott hall back in the day) in order to garner attention and have ppl talking (which is exactly what is going on). all the arguments everyone is putting out that this was in any way, shape, or form real - are just silly.
it really doesn't take much acting on the part of jeff hardy given his past...but still, i commend him for pulling this off. just another day in the office for the stinger.
and speaking of sting - all you sting fan boys need to listen up. even if u think what happened was real - tell me - WHY O WHY would Sting refuse to wrestle for Vince out of concern for the morality of the story lines which supposedly offends a devout, born-again Christian like Sting...when the man behind some of the worst of those story lines is Russo!! Sting had no problem working for Russo in WCW, or in TNA all these years, or even now that it is hogan-bishoff-russo!! I mean, if Sting was so sincere in his devotion to his faith...how could he *dare* associate himself with a company that is doing a kurt angle/jeff jarret love triangle (or as bin Laden might say - infidel triangle)???
the truth is that Sting is nothing more than a paid ACTOR first and foremost. he is an athletic performer second. His true colors were revealed on the t-shirt he wore on his tna impact return last week (before this pay-per-view).
oh don't tell me you didn't see it - the one eye symbol?? on his sting shirt?? its the same symbol that has been associated with the freemasons and all sorts of secret societies/cults. this isn't to say that a cult was behind the tna pay-per-view storylines (although at this point, that probably wouldn't hurt them anymore)...only that all of these pro "rasslers" are not sincere or truthful people. they are ego-maniacs...every last one of them. but they do care about their business/company and they will do whatever it takes (however immoral) and act in any way they see fit in order to compete with the "other" and garner attention. whether its david arquette becoming the world champion, or letting all the IWC suckers believe that TNA would actually allow jeff hardy to go out and face sting if he was in such a bad condition that he couldn't get into the ring (he certainly didn't seem wobbly while he was teasing the fans with his shirt)!
jeff has a very bright future after this masterful performance. who knows how they will spin it, who knows what the big plan is, but russo and bishoff will create and controversy and pull any houdini trick in order to increase interest/buzz/ratings. in reality, they are depraved and immoral pigs serving the new world order (no no, not that NWO)...

Although there are many reports online at this moment regarding why the main event at Victory Road went only one minute, twenty eight seconds, the fact is that no one really knows yet what happened in the ring.
Here's what we have gathered, at this hour, from a variety of sources.
There was general concern throughout the day for the condition of Jeff Hardy. The finish of the match was never discussed with agents, announcers, or the production truck as a one minute, twenty eight second match. Sting's physical limitations based on age and/or injury were not a factor.
There are two stories floating around right now. One is that the Bischoff announcement was designed to kill time, and Bischoff was sent down with what is called "an audible" (last minute change) to switch the finish. The other is that Sting, who was noticeably angry in the dressing room before the match (supposedly based on what he felt was Hardy's condition), "hooked the finish" and just ended the match after the first move, with referee Brian Hebner either counting three or being told from the back to get out of the match by counting three.
Either way, it will be very interesting to see how TNA President Dixie Carter handles this latest explosive situation in her dressing room.
We are working on several other stories arising out of this controversy. Keep checking back with WrestleZone tonight for much more.

As a teenager I can notice a few signs and mannerisms someone has when they are high. I can't confirm if his eyes are bloodshot or not because of his red makeup hiding are obstructing my view. His mannerisms were a bit, awkward to say the least.
If you have watched any of Hardy's matches he has never acted the way he did in that match. It's like he didn't care the title was on the line, or any of the kayfabe or his gimmick. He didn't give a fuck.
Too me, it looked like he had a hit or two of some marijuana before the match.

funny how u can call me a conspiracy theorist when so many (no, most) of the kids on this forum have all been duped into becoming vince russo's bitch!! of course, a tiny tiny bit of reason will certainly seem like a conspiracy theory when most of the ppl posting have the mentality (if not the actual age of) a 10 year old!!
pro rasslin seems to cater to dumber and dumber ppl these days i guess. bottom line - victory road was no shoot. it was well orchestrated and very well acted. the reasons may not be clear for awhile - who knows. and who knows how many people had fore knowledge besides the main people. but bravo to them for fooling so many in the IWC, and making boys out of men. i hope u will be one of those who can regain some maturity and intelligence. the only conspiracy theories on here are those being perpetuated by the hardy haters and sting worshipers (and i don't hate sting nor do i care for jeff) that tna or men like russo and bishoff (as much they deserve to be hated and criticized and mocked) and all the others working in tna would allow a drugged up jeff hardy to ruin their main event and put people's lives and livelihoods at risk!! when you take off your tin foil hat, you'll see that the main event went exactly as planned (whether it was a good idea or just an act of pathetic desperation - is another debate entirely).
no way in hell was any of that planned.. and Id bet the life of every single one of my unborn kids on it.

Actually, if you kept up with the forum, or the wrestling world, people don't like Russo, especially on this forum, so saying that most of the people on this forum are "becoming Russo's bitch" is completely unfounded. And if you mean that this whole thing is a work, you do not know if it is or isn't, no one does.
I bring up the "conspiracy theorist" argument in regards to your post because you bring up things like the eye of Horus. And that has nothing to do with the subject.
@Grubbs & sfury
yes, i'm aware that was one of sting's reasons for not going to wwe initially...but that can hardly be a reason now - particularly when his legacy and character are secure and he can negotiate such things in his contract. vince mchman is a wrestling genius (though an evil genius) and give sting a push and use his character in ways that have never been utilized before. especially now. wrestling is nothing like it was back when wwe bought out wcw. it is true that they would not have pushed sting at that time b/c they have the rock and stone cold. but things have changed drastically, and particularly before the recent return of the rock - sting could have been the one guy that really (if only temporarily) turbo-charged some new (yet nostalgic at the same time) life into the wwe. the only thing bigger would be, well, getting rock and stone cold back (which is what they did lol).
the point of what i was saying is that u can't trust steve borden and what he says. he is not a "wrestler" or an "athlete" first and foremost. he is those things...but he is an actor and a performer above all else. so put on a little act like what was witnessed at victory road is very doable by the stinger. very doable. tna *is* desperate after all, given all the problems they have had, hogan's health issues (which were exaggerated - pretty sickening in and of itself), injuries, the loss of nash (probably sean and hall with him) and booker t, and then the return of the rock and the buzz around wrestlemania.
as for the eye of horus - it is pretty evident on sting's shirt (it is a face yes, but a face with almost half of it missing - same with jeff). you can do research on the eye of horus and also take a look at any number of other things - the covers of music albums, movie posters, symbols like that of aol, cbs, mtv news, etc. - and the list goes on. as a starting point, watch the series called "the arrivals". or just go to your local video store or music store and "look" for it. you will be surprised by what you see and eventually, come to the realization that this far more than just mere coincidence. anyways, this is a long discussion for another thread. the point is that u can't trust sting and what he says (in character or out of character). again, if he and shawn michaels were such good christians as they claim - why continue to partake (and profit) from what the wrestling companies they are a part of are doing (in the way of immorality and debauchery). really, the recent storyline between kurt and jeff is one of the lowest points in all of pro wrestling history! so how could we be offended *if* an intoxicated jeff hardy was allowed to ruin the main event of a single pay-per-view??
finally, with regards to what your saying - i don't see how any of this "bad publicity" actually exists! tna has now more buzz, interest, and will probably have higher ratings. that is all the powers that be care about. how tna goes about it generating that interest doesn't concern them. all the fans chanting "bullshit" or all the people who feel cheated by the pay-per-view (which has a lot of good matches so one can honestly say it was a complete waste of money) - they will be back (probably right away lol). they aren't going anywhere. they don't have anything better to do. they are sheep. i'm not saying this to be mean. i'm saying this because it is true and true of most people in general (not just wrestling fans)! if they are entertained by the *garbage* tna has been putting out for the last few months or years...they will continue to be entertained no matter how badly russo and bitchoff screw them. did ppl stop watching wcw when david arqutte became the champ?? did ppl stop watching tna when hogan arrived (many ppl hated the idea and said tna would suffer for it). or how about when hogan/bitchoff were revealed as "they"?? some ppl were screaming they would never watch tna again. but the ratings remained the same as they have for years now. there are some ups and some downs. what you are describing could lead to a short dip (or the opposite). but that 1.0 that tna gets every week - it ain't going anywhere. so meaningful drop in lost revenue or popularity or whatever. WWE with the return of the rock has already done that to tna. so tna is taking a chance and doing what they have been doing for a long time now - throwing everything and the kitchen sink at the wall (so see what sticks). if this incident doesn't generate long-term buzz (as nothing ever does)...they will try something else even more absurd (that is the only thing we can say for sure about them). in the meantime, they got a core audience that will continue to watch and pay attention to tna no matter how bad it gets. sometimes, its a train wreck so bad you can't keep your eyes off it.
oh and u watch, their next pay-per-view will be just fine (even if its a little less). a few pay-per-views later it will be as if nothing happened. on the other hand, if (and i don't think they will succeed)...they are able to take all the extra attention they are going to get for the next week or two and create new, more realistic, and more unexpected storylines - there might even be more pay-per-view buys next time around. again, i don't think thats going to happen. but when your getting your ass kicked by the likes of the ufc and other entertainment (with wwe taking whatever is left) - what do u really have to lose anyways???
I see Stings eye in the picture not the eye of Horus, but hey I'm not going to argue with you over it so think what you want.
As for Sting not going to WWE now I think it is pretty simple.
1. He has bad knees and isn't wanting to work a schedule they would want most likely.
2. At TNA he can tape 2 or 3 weeks of shows in a few days and have the rest of the month off except for PPV's. At WWE even if he was on a limited legends contract which no one knows Vince would offer him he would still be traveling every week of the month.
3. He's going to be 52 years old in 5 days and he's used to working with the guys he has been working with for several years. When people get to that age they tend to go where there comfort zone is. I doubt if the tables were turned and The Undertaker, HBK or HHH would be jumping to another promotion and have to go through making new friends and stuff.
That's my opinion on why he didn't jump to WWE and personally I'm glad. Why should he join WWE just to lose to Taker at Wrestlemania? So WWE fans can get off on watching what they term a dream match and have him inducted in an HoF most people outside of WWE fans don't care about. Sorry but I'm happy he's not there.
Jeff was stoned, man. Come to terms with it...
EDIT:
And my stance on this subject has nothing to do with liking or disliking Jeff Hardy. I'm completely indifferent where he is concerned. I'd also like to let you know that a man's pupils aren't the ony give away to pill abuse. People's eyes in general can and do get a "glazed over" look when they're abusing pills. People that are high on prescription medications (or non-prescription narcotics for that matter) can and often do stumble as well, and Jeff definitely stumbled a little last night.
They obviously didn't know Jeff's condition until the last minute. So they needed to think fast. And they failed.
