RKMBs Forums .::Robegories::. Sports and Wrestling I'm watching the Ten Year Anniversary of Smackdown tonight....

I am enjoying it. I am ashamed to admit I just got a little misty eyed during the Eddie Guerrero tribute. I forgot how much I loved watching that guy. I can't believe it's been 4 years going on 5.

I'm glad Cris Benoit is dead.

What did you think of Eddie?

Eddie was awesome. When he was in WCW and was not getting a push I thought they were insane. The same with Chris Jericho. Eddie I believe would have been as big if not bigger than Jericho if he had lived. The guy could wrestle and had mic skills and most important a personality that shined through it all so whether he was a heel of face he got exactly the reaction that was needed from the crowd.

I'm sure the lying cheating stealing gimmick wasnt envisioned as being that big by Vince and the gang but he took it and ran with it. His skill level in that respect was like that of Curt Hennig and people of that stature.

Have to say that pretaped promo by The Rock shows just how desperate WWE are for entertaining main eventers these days.
It really showed how natural The Rock is, and how fake and shit Cena is.

It was certainly a brief return to better days thats for sure.

hah

Shame they edited a load of it out. It doesnt flow as well, and some of the set up lines for the jokes are missing.

even edited and chopped its ten times better than the current crop.

yup
