Which year of RAW was worse: 2003 or 2009?

 

[klunderbunker]

What do you think The Rock will do in the WWE post Wrestlemania 28? New fued for Summerslam? One off appearances every 4-6 months? Retire from wrestling? Or just leave again?

Probably retire so people can say he's abandoned us again.

03.

 

[Y-2-Jay]

So you don't see him having any more matches? I thought he could always do the big 3 every year.

 

[klunderbunker]

Not when he can be a legit actor.

 

[GI Cake]

Perhaps the most important question you will ever get.

Should I get the new R-Truth shirt, or the new CM Punk shirt? Mind you I already own the White CM Punk shirt.

 

[GI Cake]

Also I am starting to like the back of the design for the "Cena Sucks" shirt. Although that might be a little unwearable in public.

 

[klunderbunker]

Punk.

Ey KB, what are the chances that Bryan retains at EC?

 

[klunderbunker]

More likely than I'm giving it credit for I'd think.

 

[thrilla11]

One more: as of right now, who do you want to see in a one hour ironman match in the WWE?

 

[klunderbunker]

No one. One hour ironman matches are really bad ideas.

 

[thrilla11]

How so?

Have you seen any Tamina matches outside of the WWE? Is she any good? She hits a decent Superfly Splash but it's a little hard to tell with the two minutes we normally see of Diva's action each week.

 

[klunderbunker]

No need to have 1/2 or 1/3 of the show dedicated to two guys. Also there's no point in watching anything but the last 3 minutes.

Not really. I don't tend to care for women's matches.

 

[#hamler]

Also there's no point in watching anything but the last 3 minutes.

Couldn't this be said for about any match though? The storytelling in these types of matches are amazing.

Longer doesn't always mean better. See also: Dean Ambrose vs Seth Rollins 4 - their non gimmick match - being better than their 15, 20 and 30 minute matches.

 

[#hamler]

Longer doesn't always mean better.

I understand that. But there's still alot of storytelling in matches like these. Watching the last three minutes of HBK/Hart wouldn't allow you to see what Shawn went through to win the belt.

Thanks for PMing those matches to me. I need to get my laptop fixed to watch them on Youtube so it might be a little while. Also, you have to explain to me the Dean Ambrose character.

You mean the 30 minutes of rest holds he endured?

No, not usually.

This. It could have been 30 minutes or much better as a regular match.

My pleasure and "crazy guy", essentially.

What could be done to prevent Ironman matches having their "55 pointless minutes" problem that Ironman Matches have?

 

[klunderbunker]

Nothing really. Make them thirty minutes and I have no issues.

 

[#hamler]

One more thing about the iron man match.

Is it the set time limit that bothers you? Were you ok with Shawn and Cena going an hour on Raw wth no time limit?

 

[Vega]

Could "get a two falls advantage to win" work?

Yeah. See, here's the thing: let's say someone goes up 10-0 in the first five minutes. There's 50 minutes to go so the lead means nothing.

Could "get a two falls advantage to win" work?

Not sure what you mean.

 

[Uncle Sam]

I recall the Triple H/Rock Iron Man match at Judgment Day 2000 being pretty acclaimed - was that not an hour long?
