I'm glad Roman Reigns is Champion again.

Re: Any WWE fans? (R.I.P. Chyna)

Like Prince another soul taken away the same day.

[SIZE=+2]R.I.P. CHYNA[/SIZE]

Chyna, the tall, muscle-bound, raven-haired pro-wrestler who rocketed to popularity in the 1990s and later made the rounds on reality TV, has died, authorities said.
Police in Southern California said they were responding to a 911 call from a friend of the former World Wrestling Entertainment wrestler when they found her dead in her Redondo Beach apartment.A friend had gone Wednesday to check on Chyna, whose real name is Joan Marie Laurer, after she had failed to answer her phone for a few days, Redondo Beach police said in a statement. The friend told the 911 operator that Laurer wasn't breathing.

The 46-year-old Laurer was dead when officers arrived, police said.A coroner's official says police initially reported the death of former WWE wrestler Chyna as a "possible overdose."

Ed Winter, Los Angeles County's assistant chief coroner, said Wednesday that an autopsy was planned in the next few days. It could be weeks before the results of toxicology tests are known.

Laurer billed herself as the "9th Wonder of the World" because her wrestling predecessor Andre the Giant had already called himself the eighth. She was a member of the wrestling squad that dubbed itself "D-Generation X," often wrestled against men and at one point was the WWE women's champion. After leaving the WWE in 2001, Laurer posed for Playboy and appeared in adult films and on reality TV, including the shows The Surreal Life and Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew.

A statement posted Wednesday night on her website reads, "Today we lost a true icon, a real life superhero. Joanie Laurer aka Chyna, the 9th Wonder of the World, has passed away. She will live forever in the memories of her millions of fans and all of us that loved her."

Laurer was a native of Rochester, N.Y., and graduated from the University of Tampa in Florida before taking up wrestling.She joins a long list of WWE professional wrestlers who have died relatively young, including Rick Rude, Curt "Mr. Perfect" Hennig, the Ultimate Warrior and Owen Hart.

Saw the news late last night before going to bed. Although I've had mixed feelings about her it's still very sad that she passed away like this, especially since she didn't get to reconcile with WWE before her death. RIP Chyna. :rip:

 

[Prince Of Pop]

Watch her get inducted into the WWE Hall Of Fame next year. Not very fair way to be inducted. Vince will have to answer to God for his treatment of Chyna. She was a HUGE part of the Attitude Era and help revitalize that Women's division. I wasn't a big Chyna fan (I was a WCW fan at that time, but once in awhile watched the WWF/WWE), but she had immense talent...and the ONLY women to be the WWE Intercontinental Champion.

R.I.P Chyna.

 

[PoP]

Man it's been several months since the last post over Chyna's passing.

Here's an awesome news.

GOLDBERG IS BACK ON RAW!!! And now he wants to challenge Brock Lesnar, whom he last fought in the ring at WrestleMania XX and which both departured the company after that.

GOLDBERG! GOLDBERG! GOLDBERG!

 

[KOPV]

I've been waiting for this moment for 12 freaking years.. Have been a big Goldberg fan since he came on the scene in WCW.. I was never a flip flop wrestling fan when it comes to who's my favorite.. hands down he has always been my personal favorite..

and you know something annoyingly funny, he's won 99% of his matches and the TWO I saw him in person... He LOST! agh my friend laughed at me so hard..

Oh yeah we was undefeated since his WCW debut until Starcade when he got screwed by Scott Hall making Kevin Nash the new WCW Heavyweight Champion. Back then I was against Goldberg because I was a fan of nWo. But man I began to like Goldberg when I started becoming a fan WWE more, I'm even grateful he'd never go to TNA (Auck!).

 

[KOPV]

I remember looking up his matches he did in Japan which was the first time I saw him wear his new looking shorts (similar to the WWE) ones.. I will say standing next to brock.. I hope Goldberg puts on some size between now and the PPV, he has under a month and I'm not sure what he's been doing to prep for this show but no one wants to see a small Goldberg. (Lets face it) most wrestlers take steroids and/or HGH, if he has recently and is in his system he can put on a good 10lbs before the show.. I really wonder how he's going to look. The Goldberg presence is one of mass and intimidation.. that's what we gotta see

 

[Galactus123]

Good to have him back. I liked his first WWE run. I hope they give him better opponents too because we have seen Goldberg vs Lesnar already. Also I have a feeling that there will a third match at Wrestlemania or he will face Triple H again. I want to see a match against someone new.

 

[KOPV]

to be honest ^ as much as I'd love to see that I really think this is it for Goldberg... I've fallowed him a bit throughout the years hoping he'd come back and he is doing this specifically more so because his son has never seen him wrestle before.. Goldberg screaming out to Brock "You're Last" I believe it

The Survivor Series match could end by a DQ or Lesnar could win it unfairly. Then they will have a rematch at Wrestlemania and Goldberg wins it. That could happen. It would be odd if WWE didn't want Goldberg at Wrestlemania.

 

[PoP]

Well I'm hoping Lesnar would lose, because of reign of terror has gotta end all because of that mouthpiece Paul Heyman (or I should see Paul Heeman), he really needs to fire him as manager.

 

[KOPV]

Well before it was announced (just rumored) I read that WWE wanted to utilize Goldberg to bring back importance to Survivor Series.. It used to be an important PPV which within the last decade or more kind of dwindled.. and I do not see Goldberg signing a contract to lose after being gone for 12 years and much dislike between Goldberg and the WWE.. Goldberg must have seen something wonderful to sign.

 

[KOPV]

small update: Bill Goldberg confirmed that WWE came to him for a one time deal/match so he is taking it as his last match.. IF the WWE wants to work something out again he says he's open to it.

 

[PoP]

YES!!!

Lesnar's reign of terror has been jackhammered by Goldberg. After 12 long years Goldberg earned a Survivor Series win, the match lasted over a minute after giving Brock Lesnar 2 spears and a jackhammer to finish the job.

 

[Galactus123]

I don't normally like this kind of squash matches that make no sense but Goldberg vs Lesnar was awesome! That was a great moment. I'm a fan of them both.

 

[KOPV]

I'm a big fan of Goldberg but I'll have to admit I was hoping to see a battle.. We will see what happens, I hope this does not mean they'll face again and Brock wins the last.. also note, Goldberg going for a title run also means the likelihood his last match will be a loss is sad to me.. They wont retire him with the title so.... however/wherever this ends, it seems like a big loss in in the future.. I really wanted mr. undefeated to win his last match.. It makes his legacy more epic..

I see this going a few ways, 1. Goldberg Loses royal rumble due to Brock (which happened before) 2. Brock wins the title after Goldberg wins Royal Rumble so they face... I don't see Brock being ok with a squash match unless he'll have retribution...

And hopefully Goldberg gets inducted into the hall of fame, maybe 2018 (if he wrestles WrestleMania 17) If not than induct in 17... At one point WWE would have never wanted him in, but seems like the bad blood is being cleaned

 

[Galactus123]

So Wrestlemania 33 is tonight. None of the matches sound very interesting but I'm still watching it. There are rumors that this is Undertaker's last Wrestlemania. He doesn't appear to be in a very good condition so it might be a good idea to retire but I wish the match would be against somebody else than Roman Reigns. He is boring. Also too bad that they couldn't get a good opponent for AJ Styles. There will be Goldberg vs Lesnar AGAIN. We have seen that too many times. Goldberg vs Taker would be more interesting.

 

[Amaya]

I heard that Taker's hip is in bad shape and he needs replacement surgery, but he's waiting until he retires to get that done. It would kind of suck if his last match was this one; might be a good way to get Roman Reigns over as a heel but I think Taker deserves better. Sting (if he's able to compete), AJ Styles, or Kane (who's apparently running for office in Tennessee and therefore could also retire soon) would've been better picks for his final opponent.

There are rumors swirling about regarding the Hardy Boys and Kurt Angle possibly coming back and Shinsuke Nakamura is also likely bound for the main roster really soon, so there's those two things to look forward to, at least.

I agree. He deserves a lot better. Taker vs Sting would be awesome but I don't think it will happen. I'm sure WWE planned it for WM32 but Sting got injured in the match against Seth Rollins so they had to change the plans.

 

[innuendo141]

Had to tune in this week to see my man DDP get inducted (DDP Yoga changed my life)

Sad to see Taker go. I dont even watch wrestling any more, but I always keep my ear to the ground.

When will Roman Reigns push ever end? Its a bit overkill, no?

Speaking of the Hardys, they're competing in ROH Supercard Of Honor XI against Young Bucks for the ROH World Tag Team Title and heard that they won and now I heard they're back in the WWE. Now they're the first tag team in history to win both TNA, ROH and WWE Tag Team titles in the same month.

Also,

YES!!!! WELCOME BACK TO THE WWE HARDYS!!! Now they're back in my babyface list again.

 

[Galactus123]

Spoilers!

So it looks like this really was Undertaker's last match. He has always been my favorite so it is sad to see him go. The match wasn't good like I expected. Taker's last match should have been a great one but they just had to put Reigns there. It kind of ruined the moment.

 

[Amaya]

Taker's exit legit made me cry. He's truly one of if not the greatest ever. Definitely needs to go into next year's Hall of Fame.

WrestleMania was damn good this year, better than last year's for sure. Hardys came back (with the Broken gimmick! at least for now), JR came back, Kurt Angle kind of came back (his HOF induction was awesome), and almost all of the matches were pretty solid. Even the Hall of Fame ceremony and NXT TakeOver events were good. I'm pretty damn excited for Raw tonight, to say the least.

 

[Dan]

Yes!I am a huge WWE fan! WrestleMania was absolutely amazing!! Since I live in the UK for me the Kickoff show started at 10pm, and the main show tarted at 12am to 5am, I didn't sleep at all! But it was worth every second! My favorite wrestler is Shawn Michaels, 100% Always has been and that will never change!

Takers exit


PS. I hate to say it, I kind of wish Goldberg did not return.. this coming from a big Goldberg fan... Him coming out, literally with a two move list, obviously rusty, and simply could not wrestle was tarnishing his image in my opinion.. He did more bad than good to his legacy.. He looked great, it was cool to see him, buttttt - it made a mockary to what Goldberg was

As a huge WCW fan, I never bought Goldberg. Boring, copy and paste matches. He had 2 good matches as far as I can rememebr, one vs Sting on a Monday Nitro in 98, when Sting had to be kicked in the head by Hogan to lose, and the other was DDP at Halloween Havoc I think, 98 or 99. Other than that, I hated his 2 minute long matches.

I kind of agree. I wish his matches were longer. I was expecting the Wrestlemania match to be a proper match but no. He had proper matched in his last WWE run so I'm sure he could do it. His match with The Rock was good.

 

[PoP]

I got to admit it's gonna be sad for Undertaker to leave the ring after his WrestleMania match with Roman Reigns and I was really hoping for a Undertaker vs John Cena match, but I guess it'll be on my dream match list. He did had an amazing run with the WWE and always be one the best fan favourites and I'm glad I'm one of them.

It would have been better than this at least. The only thing is that we have already seen Taker vs Cena many times before.
